A revised and expanded edition of one the most popular titles in
the Contemporary Artists Series Born in Lebanon, Palestinian artist
Mona Hatoum was exiled to London, where she has lived and worked
since the mid-1970s. Through performance, video, sculpture, and
installation, she creates architectonic spaces that relate to the
body, language, and the condition of exile as well as transforming
everyday, domestic objects into things foreign, threatening, and
dangerous. Often exquisitely beautiful, Hatoum's works combine
states of emotion and longing with the formal simplicity of
Minimalism, creating powerful evocations of displacement, denial,
and otherness.

A generously illustrated look at the intricate narrative threads of
three of the artist's earliest works, and their continued resonance
today Celebrated for works blending performance, video, and
sculpture, Matthew Barney has created complex narratives that
emerge across series since his earliest exhibitions. Matthew
Barney: OTTO Trilogy is the first book to trace the progression of
three significant early projects-Facility of INCLINE, Facility of
DECLINE, and OTTOshaft- and to reveal the narrative system that
links them. Titled after former football player Jim Otto, the
series explores the training, discipline, and physical limits of
the body alongside questions of sexual difference and desire.
Featuring an illuminating introduction by Nancy Spector; an essay
by Maggie Nelson on the works' exploration of psychology, bodies,
image-making, narrative, and abstraction; and a new text by the
artist, this generously illustrated volume includes previously
unpublished artist's sketches, behind-the-scenes photographs,
research material, and video stills. It is the definitive
publication on this important series, and offers a key to
understanding many of the themes that thread throughout Barney's
oeuvre. Distributed for the Gladstone Gallery Exhibition Schedule:
Gladstone Gallery, New York (09/08/16-10/22/16)
Drs. Robert Wachter and Lee Goldman coined the term hospitalist in
their New England Journal of Medicine article in 1996. Hospital
Medicine is now the fastest growing medical specialty in the United
States, due in part to the evolution of inpatient care. In this
issue, the Guest Editor, Dr. Nancy Spector, and Consulting Editor
Dr. Bonita Stanton, have assembled expert authors to examine the
changing nature of inpatient care, including the major movements
and trends that have influenced hospital-based practice, patient
centered care, and education in this clinical learning environment.
Articles are focused on the following: Quality of Care and Quality
Improvement; Evidence-based Medicine; Patient Outcomes and Metrics;
Inter-professional Teams; Handoffs; Patient Centeredness;
Communication with Patients; Health Literacy; Bedside Rounds;
Education in the Inpatient; Clinical Learning Environment and
Workplace-based Assessment; Simulation in Medical Education;
Feedback; Bedside Teaching and Learning; and Hospital Medicine:
State of the Specialty, Looking Forward. The intended audience for
this issue are frontline providers that provide care in community
hospitals and faculty in academic medical centers. Pediatricians
will come away with the information they need to improve patient
outcomes with evidentiary support.
