How does contemporary art best respond to social crisis? Through reflection on its own crisis of form
Peter Osborne Volgorde van de boeken
Peter Osborne is een vooraanstaande stem in de moderne Europese filosofie, bekend om zijn scherpe analyses van de complexe relaties tussen tijd, moderniteit en avant-garde. Zijn werk duikt diep in de hedendaagse kunst, waarbij het de esthetische en filosofische fundamenten ervan en de plaats ervan binnen de bredere cultuurtheorie onderzoekt. Osborne onderzoekt kritisch hoe filosofische concepten ons begrip van kunst vormgeven en gaat in op de implicaties van steeds evoluerende artistieke vormen in het hedendaagse landschap. Zijn benadering biedt een diepgaande intellectuele betrokkenheid bij de krachten die de moderne artistieke en culturele productie definiëren.

A major survey of Dame Laura Knight, first female Royal Academician and popular British artist of the 20th century.Laura Knight (1877–1970) was one of the most famous and popular English artists of the twentieth century. She was the first woman to have a solo exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts, in 1965. In the following decades her realist style of painting fell out of fashion and her work become largely overlooked. A new generation has rediscovered her work, finding a contemporary resonance in her depictions of women at work, of people from marginalized communities and her contributions as a war artist.This beautifully illustrated book, which accompanies a major exhibition at MK Gallery, provides an overview of Knight's illustrious from her training at Nottingham Art School at the age of 13 and her time in North Yorkshire and Cornwall, to her visits to traveller communities and a segregated American hospital. It also features her circus, ballet and theatre scenes, paintings of women during the war and her late paintings of nature.The selection of over 160 works combines celebrated paintings with less known graphic and design works, including ceramics, jewellery and costumes that reflect the artist's enduring interest in the everyday activities of people from all walks of life.

The Postconceptual Condition
- 240bladzijden
- 9 uur lezen
The Postconceptual Condition philosophically maps a chasm of truly mythic proportions, namely that between art and politics. While this chasm is quintessentially modern, the meaning of 'modern' keeps changing and with it the structure of historical experience. Global or transnational modernity forces us to revise notions of 'autonomy' or 'activism,' and conditions the work of art in ways that mark a clear break with its modern past, i.e. Conceptualism. In confronting the fate of art institutions (the biennale form) and analyzing the conditions of the artwork proper, Osborne gets a critical grip on that beast that calls the chasm between art and politics home-a creature better known as the cultural logic of high capitalism. -Roger Buergel, Founding Director of the Johann Jacobs Museum, Zurich Very little philosophical writing is inspiring enough to catalyse art and bring it into being. Peter Osborne's writing is consistently in this category. -Hito Steyerl, visual artist and author of Duty Free Art

Poetry Lite: Verses about life

- 3 uur lezen
ÿEddie Thompson is an expatriate Manxman who settled in Milton Keynes with his Welsh wife Enid and daughters Kirsty and Gill in 1981. His verses are based on his experiences, observations and thoughts about life and are for the most part refreshingly brief. They cover a variety of subjects from getting older to singing, musicianship, forgetfulness and the way people talk. Witty, entertaining and often highly topical, Eddie's verses, already acclaimed by his friends, are now published for the first time for a wider audience. Fellow bassist Peter Osborne, who contributed the drawings, writes: "I love to put aside my oils and palette and join my friend Eddie Thompson, the wordsmith, poet and sideswiper, and add a few visuals to his verbals."

"In the tradition of Wheat Belly and Grain Brain; No Grain, No Pain demonstrates the proven link between a gluten-heavy diet and chronic pain and discomfort--and offers a groundbreaking, 30-day, grain-free diet plan to help you heal yourself from the inside out. More than 100 million Americans suffer from chronic pain according to an Institute of Medicine report released in 2011. For many, chronic pain is part of an autoimmune disease, but all too often doctors turn to the same solution: painkilling drugs. But all of this medication simply isn't helping, and as Dr. Peter Osborne, the leading authority on gluten sensitivity and food allergies has found, the real solution often lies in what you eat. In No Grain, No Pain, Dr. Osborne shows how grains wreak havoc on the body by causing tissue inflammation, creating vitamin and/or mineral deficiencies, and triggering an autoimmune response that causes the body to attack itself. But he also offers practical steps to find relief. Using his drug-free, easy-to-implement plan, you will be able to eliminate all sources of gluten and gluten-like substances, experience significant improvement in fifteen days, and eliminate pain within thirty days. No Grain, No Pain is the first book to identify diet--specifically, grain--as a leading cause of chronic suffering, and provides you with the knowledge you need to improve your health. Based on extensive research and examples culled from thousands of his satisfied patients, Dr. Osborne recommends changing your diet to achieve the relief that millions of Americans have been seeking once and for all, leading to a healthier, happier life"
