John McDonald

    Deze auteur duikt in de complexiteit van de menselijke ervaring door middel van meeslepende romans en scenario's. Zijn werk verkent vaak ingewikkelde relaties en ethische dilemma's, terwijl het een onderscheidende literaire stem behoudt. Met een veelzijdig bereik dat zich uitstrekt van dramatische scripts tot toneelstukken, is zijn verhalen vertellen consistent tot nadenken stemmend en rijk aan inzichten.

      The following pages are the result of a series of notes collected and set down in the form of a story and a system of practice, which accounts for the style of arrangement. The sequential order as originally received has been carefully adhered to that its value to the reader might not be lessened. Read it as though it were a message directed to none but yourself. Try to reason out each proposition to your own satisfaction and to get the spirit back of the words. Then apply its teachings to fit your own individual nature and understanding. During your perusal of these pages should any ideas occur to you concerning your work or ambitions, it is well to lay the book aside for a few moments and meditate upon them. Many profitable ideas have come to readers in this way.

      Zadok Ben-David's inspiration derives from nature, science, magic and illusion. From Evolution and Theory (1995), where he explores scientific discoveries, to the psychological installation Blackfield (2007), with thousands of flowers, and the magical The Other Side of Midnight (2013), which incorporates hundreds of insects, one of the characteristics of Ben-David's work is the use of multiplicity as an organizing principle. He creates an alternate amplified viewing space where the relationship between viewer (human) and artwork (nature) is both sacred and destabilizing. The new ongoing installation People I Saw but Never Met, features thousands of miniatures of people that he has photographed and drawn during his travels, suggesting ways in which we are both isolated yet always close together. Together with outdoor works, completed over a twenty-year period, this new book brings these four installations together for the first time, in all their magical detail.

      Tato útlá kniha vysvětluje podstatné principy toho, jak zacházet se svou myslí, pokud chceme být šťastní, úspěšní či bohatí nebo pokud toužíme po čemkoliv konkrétním. Máme totiž právo naplnit jakékoliv své touhy. Musíme pouze spolupracovat s vesmírnými silami a znát zákonitosti myšlenkové energie. S učením, jenž má moc měnit životy, se čtenář seznámí formou jednoduchého příběhu: vypravěč se setká s tajemným úspěšným a bohatým mužem, který ho zasvětí do vyšší moudrosti. Přestože knížka vyšla poprvé v r. 1929, její nevšedně hutné a mocné poselství je aktuální i dnes.
