Hirst-isms (Hardcover): Damien Hirst Hirst-isms (Hardcover)
Damien Hirst; Edited by Larry Warsh
R314 Discovery Miles 3 140 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

A revealing collection of quotations from world-renowned artist Damien Hirst Hirst-isms is a collection of quotations-bold, surprising, often humorous, and always insightful-from celebrated artist Damien Hirst, whose controversial work explores the connections between art, religion, science, life, and death. Emerging in the 1990s as a leading member of the Young British Artists (YBAs), Hirst first became famous and gained a reputation as a provocateur with a series of artworks featuring dead and sometimes dissected animals (including a shark, sheep, and cow) preserved in glass tanks filled with formaldehyde. Gathered from interviews and other primary sources and organized by subject, these quotations explore Hirst's early years, family life, and the beginnings of his fascination with art; the major themes of his work; his influences and heroes; his motivation; his process and the boundary-pushing production of his work; and his thoughts on the art world, fame, and money. The result is a comprehensive and nuanced book that sheds new light on a fascinating and important contemporary artist. Select quotations from the book: "The less I feel like an artist, the better I feel." "I like it when people love my art. I like it when people hate my art. I just don't want them to ignore my art." "Painting's like the most fabulous illusion, because there's nothing at stake. Except yourself." "I'm interested in the confusion between art and life, I like it when the world gets in the way." "Sometimes you have to step over the edge to know where it is."

Warhol-isms (Hardcover): Andy Warhol Warhol-isms (Hardcover)
Andy Warhol; Edited by Larry Warsh
R316 Discovery Miles 3 160 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

A unique collection of brilliant quotations from the legendary Pop artist One of the most influential artists of his time and ours, Andy Warhol is nearly as renowned for what he said as for what he did. Indeed, he is so quotable that things he never said are endlessly and plausibly attributed to him, including, fittingly, the most celebrated fake Warhol saying-"In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes." Warhol-isms separates legend from fact to present a unique and comprehensive collection of authentic quotations from the Pop artist. Gathered from interviews and other primary sources, these deadpan, droll, ironic, and sincere gems-in which a superficial embrace of superficiality often disguises provocative, unconventional ideas-provide compelling insights into the life and work of an artist who has left an indelible mark on art and popular culture. Select quotations from the book: I think an artist is anybody who does something well. I went to [a psychiatrist] once, and he never called me back. They always say that time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself. I've never met a person I couldn't call a beauty. New things are always better than old things. I'm still a commercial artist. I was always a commercial artist.

The Sayings of Benjamin Disraeli (Paperback): Benjamin Disraeli The Sayings of Benjamin Disraeli (Paperback)

R265 R199 Discovery Miles 1 990 Save R66 (25%) Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The wit and wisdom of Benjamin Disraeli, British statesman and twice Prime Minister of the United Kingdom - with a new foreword by Lord Lexden. Disraeli was one of the least orthodox of Prime Ministers. He was an adventurer who fought his way to 'the top of the greasy pole' in a blaze of controversy, and became Queen Victoria's favourite statesman. He was a novelist and a wit as well as politician. He was a brilliant orator. Like Byron he was both a romantic and a cynic. His aphorisms have become part of the discourse of political life. This collection is based on his novels, letters and speeches. He was never dull, but he was fundamentally serious behind the firework display, and he had a lasting influence on the course of party history. Seen by some of the founder of 'one-nation' conservatism, Disraeli is today one of the most co-opted political figures of history. For those seeking clarity on Disraeli's views, this collection will confound and surprise.

It is about destruction and growth and where they are able to meet in the middle."
