"The MA¶bius Strip" explores the history, political economy, and culture of space in central Guerrero, Mexico, during the colonial period This study is significant for two reasons First, space comprises a sphere of contention that affects all levels of society, from the individual and his or her household to the nation-state and озксс its mechanisms for control and coercion Second, colonialism offers a unique situation, for it invariably involves a determined effort on the part of an invading society to redefine politico-administrative units, to redirect the flow of commodities and cash, and, ultimately, to foster and construct new patterns of allegiance and identity to communities, regions, and countries Thus spatial politics comprehends the complex interaction of institutional domination and individual agency The complexity of the diachronic transformation of space in central Guerrero is illustrated through an analysis of land tenure, migration, and commercial exchange, three salient and contested aspects of hispanic conquest "The MA¶bius Strip," therefore, addresses issues important to social theory and to the understanding of the processes affecting the colonialization of non-Western societies.  2005 г Твердый переплет, 661 стр ISBN 0804748934.

After Many Springs is the title of a Thomas Hart Benton painting that evokes nostalgia for a fertile, creative time gone by This bold new book––taking the name of this work by Benton––examines the intersections between Regionalist and Modernist paintings, photography, and film during the Great Depression, a period when the two approaches озкмя to art making were perhaps at their zenith It is commonly believed that Regionalist artists Benton, John Steuart Curry, and Grant Wood reacted to the economic and social devastation of their era by harking back in tranquil bucolic paintings to a departed utopia However, this volume compares their work to that of photographers such as Dorothea Lange and Ben Shahn and filmmakers such as Josef von Sternberg—all of whom documented the desolation of the Depression—and finds surprising commonalities The book also notes intriguing connections between Regionalist artists and Modernists Jackson Pollock and Philip Guston, countering prevailing assumptions that Regionalism was an anathema to these New York School painters and showing their shared fascination with the Midwest.  2009 г Твердый переплет, 208 стр ISBN 0300135866.

In a 2008 review, New York Times art critic Roberta Smith glowingly endorsed German-born, Los Angeles-based artist Sterling Ruby, calling him "one of the most interesting artists to emerge in this century That's only eight years, of course," she added, "but the claim may stick " Ruby--who was born in 1972--uses whatever озкрж media suits his ideas; projects have included sculpture, collage, installation, painting, ceramics, video and printmaking Fusing references to Minimalism, Art Brut and graffiti with a canny grasp of contemporary and pop culture, Ruby's accumulative approach addresses the overproduction of information, neurosis and paranoia, conflicts between individual impulses and mechanisms of social control, urban violence, consumption, anxiety and the need for control that characterizes contemporary Western society Part of JRP|Ringier's distinctive monograph series, this well-illustrated volume is the most comprehensive reference on this rapidly emerging artist's work to date It contains newly commissioned essays by Frieze associate editor Jorg Heiser and art historian Robert Hobbs.  2009 г Мягкая обложка, 168 стр ISBN 3037640103.

Fishermen exist as relics, the last hunter-gatherers among us Their boats, crammed with ropes and nets, carry the mystique of a near-forgotten world ruled by the elements This is the story of Bernard Raynes, one of Maine's last independent commercial fishermen The author, now an accomplished writer, was once Raynes's apprentice — then a young озкрр man with no experience who came to Maine with a dream of working on a boat In the early 1980s, these two men shared some of the fishing industry’s best years But their world changed Author Paul Molyneaux discusses the factors — personal and political, environmental and economic — that led to the decline of New England fishing While Raynes still hangs on, thanks to a philosophy of hard work, consolidation leaves few choices for young fishermen For over three centuries, Raynes’s ancestors invested their futures in the lives of fish They learned to think like fish Few today could match his skills, but they don’t have to Technology has edged Raynes out, and his fishing legacy will sadly die with him.  2006 г Мягкая обложка, 272 стр ISBN 1560258446.

In America, almost all the money in circulation passes through financial institutions every day But in Nigeria's "cash and carry" system, 90 percent of the currency never comes back to a bank after it's issued What happens when two such radically different economies meet and mingle, as they have for centuries in Atlantic Africa? The озкрт answer is a rich diversity of economic practices responsive to both local and global circumstances In Marginal Gains, Jane I Guyer explores and explains these often bewildering practices, including trade with coastal capitalism and across indigenous currency zones, and within the modern popular economy Drawing on a wide range of evidence, Guyer demonstrates that the region shares a coherent, if loosely knit, commercial culture She shows how that culture actually works in daily practice, addressing both its differing scales of value and the many settings in which it operates, from crisis conditions to ordinary household budgets The result is a landmark study that reveals not just how popular economic systems work in Africa, but possibly elsewhere in the Third World.  2004 г Мягкая обложка, 232 стр ISBN 0226311163.

Marcel Duchamp was both an artist and a chess player, but until now, little was known of his chess activities In analyzing Duchamp's games--seeing how he reacted in specific situations during play--we can better understand how his mind worked, and gain insight into the strategies that motivated his work as an artist Duchamp saw a correlation between озкрь art and chess, and actively sought opportunities to combine the two seemingly unrelated disciplines Not only did he love the game, but he was aware of the reputation of chess as an intensely cerebral pursuit, and to the end of his life, he remained committed to challenging the French adage "d'etre bete comme un peintre" ("to be stupid like a painter"), raising his art to equivalently complex, intellectual heights Naumann shows us just how deeply intertwined the two activities were for Duchamp.  2009 г Твердый переплет, 148 стр ISBN 0980055628.

New York-based Dana Schutz is widely considered one of the most talented painters of her generation As The New York Times' Holland Cotter wrote in 2007, "She's a terrific painter From the start, her broad, sardonic, cartoon-expressionist style was prodigious but also focused There was lots of splash, but the images were strong and centered озксж Her gallery shows were thematically tight without being programmatic, like a book of poems that reads as one poem This kind of completeness is hard to achieve " In this volume, Schutz takes on the still-life genre, coming up with dazzling, colorful paintings that are at once merry and ambiguous about the objects of our everyday lives Thirteen recent paintings are presented, along with installation photographs from her recent exhibition at Contemporary Fine Arts, Kupfergraben A conversation between the artist and Jorg Heiser lends additional insights into Schutz's pictorial compositions and working method.  2009 г Мягкая обложка, 40 стр ISBN 3931355489.

William Pryor, a great-great-grandson of Charles Darwin, was a heroin and then alcohol addict for twelve years in the sixties and seventies He brushed death several times, but, against overwhelming odds, survived, and, in 1975, was one of the first patients at the first American-style addiction treatment centre in Europe He grew up in Cambridge озкск in the stifling bosom of privilege; was sent to Eton, which he loathed, and rapidly descended into full-blown addiction as he traveled through Parisian garrets, Greek tavernas and Indian ashrams - and even Trinity College Cambridge He became part of the sixties avant garde counterculture as a dadaist beat poet in the company of members of Pink Floyd His experiences - and subsequent transformation to non-addiction - have given him a unique insight into the world of hard drugs and addiction, and his clarity of vision as to the way forward for all those involved in the fall out of the War on Drugs will be invaluable both to the victims and to those engaged in attempting to help them William presents a compelling argument as to why dugs should be decriminalized He also gives a powerful analysis of the pervasive mythology of Alcoholics Anonymous and how it traps people in the idea that addiction is an illness.  2004 г Мягкая обложка, 236 стр ISBN 1904555136.

Reminiscent of the bizarre, anthropomorphic portraits of sixteenth-century painter Giuseppe Arcimboldo, Michael Bauer's work creates figurative composites from abstraction and design Grotesque and distorted conglomerations of doodled elements, gray and muddy forms entangle as abject viscera; lumpy scar tissue, withering penises and озкср slithery dead matter converge as psychological landscape and forlorn memento mori.  2009 г Твердый переплет, 128 стр ISBN 3905829851.
