Sheriff Lou Ford, a pillar of the community in the small Texas town

he appears to be, as becomes apparent after he is ordered to evict
local prostitute Joyce Lakeland (Jessica Alba) and ends up
embroiled in a torrid affair with her. When his fiance Amy (Kate
Hudson) becomes suspicious, the consequences are bloody and brutal
as the dark secrets of Ford's past are finally brought to light.

This book centralizes powerful leisure stories that may otherwise
be understood as myths-sometimes recognized, often less so-that
circulate in the field of leisure studies and beyond. In everyday
use, a myth perpetuates a popularly held belief that is false or
untrue. However, in social and cultural theories, myths are more
complex as partial truths that privilege particular versions of a
shared social reality. We see myth as having an "absent presence"
in leisure studies, and want to know what myths are, what they do,
and how they circulate and shape people's leisure lives. Myths can
do more than obfuscate; they often animate people's lives, motivate
collective action, and inspire change. As the chapters in this
edited volume explore in further detail, leisure myths and
mythmaking involve complex relations in the gaps between reality
and imagination-from the shared myths of musical legends to myths
of placemaking and communities, as well as from origin myths of
sport practices to fantasy and festivals, to the importance of
storytelling as mythmaking in tourism. In different ways, each of
these chapters alerts the readers to the "absent presence" of myths
and mythmaking in leisure research. The chapters in this book were
originally published as a special issue of Leisure Sciences.
The definitive monograph on the iconoclastic painter George Condo.
With his arresting, unsettling style, George Condo emerged out of
the dynamism of the New York art scene in the early 1980s, and he
has been restlessly painting, drawing and sculpting - bringing
forms into the world in one way or another - ever since. With his
'fake' Old Masters, reconfigured Manets, impossibly intricate
paintings that seem abstract only from a distance, fractured and
multifaceted 'psychologically Cubist' portraits, and the orgiastic
misdemeanours of a host of butlers, bankers and priests, Condo has
invented, mastered and expanded not just one painterly language but
an entire lexicon. Working closely with Condo, Simon Baker has
combined biographical, chronological and thematic approaches to
survey the artist's work and career to date. An introductory essay
on Condo's contradictory nature and a chapter exploring his
phenomenal early career are followed by three thematic chapters
that look at the years from 1984 to the present, tracing Condo's
systematic reconstruction of the techniques of painting, exploring
his relationship to the concept of abstraction, and probing the
darker side of his psychological iconography in drawing, painting,
sculpture and writing. George Condo is the definitive monograph
about a unique artist that will appeal to artists, art students and
those with a general interest in art.

visual signature of her imagery. Mona Kuhn: Works is an essential

An expansive and timely survey on contemporary British photographer
and artist Nick Waplington, with work spanning his entire 40-year
career – his first comprehensive retrospective volume London- and
New York-based artist Nick Waplington uses photography to capture
the complex and far-reaching aspects of our lived experience. He
rose to prominence in the early 1990s with Living Room and has
since become known for his unfiltered depictions of people and
places, and the sociopolitical backgrounds that define them. From
the chaos, violence, and euphoria of riots, protests, and free
parties to the surreal, hypnotic quiet of his large-format
landscapes, Waplington’s work (in all its messy humanness)
transcends stereotypes and confounds expectations, and this book is
no exception. Including never-before-published images, offering new
insight into both well- and lesser-known projects, as well as
Waplington’s painting and artistic practice, the book opens with
a newly commissioned introduction from Simon Baker, one of the
leading curators of contemporary photography in Europe and director
of the Maison Européenne de la photographie (MEP), Paris. This is
the most extensive survey of Waplington's work to date, and
includes previously unpublished photographs, as well as paintings,
sketchbooks, and other artworks that complement his practice.
