R8,164 Discovery Miles 81 640 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

A Cultural History of the Avant-Garde in the Nordic Countries 1950-1975 is the first publication to deal with the postwar avant-garde in the Nordic countries. The essays cover a wide range of avant-garde manifestations in arts and culture: literature, the visual arts, architecture and design, film, radio, television and the performative arts. It is the first major historical work to consider the Nordic avant-garde in a transnational perspective that includes all the arts and to discuss the role of the avant-garde not only within the aesthetic field but in a broader cultural and political context: The cultural politics, institutions and new cultural geographies after World War II, new technologies and media, performative strategies, interventions into everyday life and tensions between market and counterculture.

The Beings of Consolation - Poems (Hardcover): Jeffrey B. Holl The Beings of Consolation - Poems (Hardcover)
Jeffrey B. Holl
R682 Discovery Miles 6 820 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

The Beings of Consolation is a collection of poetic works that compel the reader to rely heavily on their own sense of the existentially absurd-with a tolerance for the ethos of the human artifice as it dwindles between subjective states of dismay and utter panic, objective misery and hopelessness, and a spiritual search for truth and beauty that toils within the mishaps of the distrust of authority and the sense of having to reform society's key institutions in order to arrive at any semblance of balance at the global level. Jeffrey B. Holl is well-versed at thought and able to transform both personal experiences and the observance of others into self-portraits, community assertions, and a collection of poetic characterizations where the protagonists are all faced with the innumerable dynamics of the human condition-throughout relations with others on the level of a psycho-spiritual inter-subjectivity, and also as pertains to a geopolitical perspective of what may be going on within the psyches of the several figures portrayed throughout many of these works. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, but it is most commonly found in the consciousness of the individual that finds illumination-the mind's eye-to act as the catalyst for social change; and to perhaps harness compassion for the less fortunate, and the survivors of the injustices that linger deep within our societal framework to this day. In the end, these works suggest that it is possible to act with moral agency while spiritual beliefs remain intact, but that administrative and corporate power should be reformed in an effort to give people the self-empowerment and spiritual enlightenment that they so desperately deserve. Jeffrey lives and works in Winnipeg, Canada.

These poems are really from my heart, what I have experienced myself, seen, and got inspired from different things in life. I have written poems for a long time, and it's really great to hear that people relate to my poems and how much they have helped them through tough times. It's about struggle, how to never give up hope, and inspirational and love poems as well. I would say in short it's a part of my journey and yours through life.

Walter Benjamin, Harry Zohn
R620 Discovery Miles 6 200 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Walter Benjamin discusses whether art is diminished by the modern culture of mass replication, arriving at the conclusion that the aura or soul of an artwork is indeed removed by duplication. In an essay critical of modern fashion and manufacture, Benjamin decries how new technology affects art. The notion of fine arts is threatened by an absence of scarcity; an affair which diminishes the authenticity and essence of the artist's work. Though the process of art replication dates to classical antiquity, only the modern era allows for a mass quantity of prints or mass production. Given that the unique aura of an artist's work, and the reaction it provokes in those who see it, is diminished, Benjamin posits that artwork is much more political in significance. The style of modern propaganda, of the use of art for the purpose of generating raw emotion or arousing belief, is likely to become more prevalent versus the old-fashioned production of simpler beauty or meaning in a cultural or religious context.
