I can resist everything", wrote Oscar Wilde, "except temptation". What is it that makes a painting so attractive, so irresistible? In this collection of essays, Dominic van den Boogerd writes with passion about the exhibitions he has seen, the painters he has spoken with, and the talks by artists that he has organised as the director of De Ateliers in Amsterdam. About the pleasures and pitfalls of painting, forbidden favourites and the flirtation between the art of painting and other muses.

Erik van Lieshout (1968) is one of the most prominent young Dutch artists at this time. His work is characterized by a fierceness that is evident in his videos and installations, as much as in his drawing and painting style. The work of Van Lieshout is inspired by the subcultures that evolve in the modern metropolis. His visual material is drawn from these immediate surroundings, from newspapers, cartoons or directly off the streets themselves. Van Lieshout subjects this source material to his highly idiosyncratic, harsh idiom. His work is often explicitly pornographic and violent, but is also unadulteratedly humoristic. He tackles sex and violence with pleasure. This publication is the first comprehensive overview of Erik van Lieshout's work. Four essays discuss a whole range of ideas and sources of inspiration and consider them in new constellations, completed by a survey of Van Lieshout's exhibitions and a bibliography. Book jacket.

Biological Autonomy written by Alvaro Moreno and has been published by Springer this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2015-05-04 with Philosophy categories.
Since Darwin, Biology has been framed on the idea of evolution by natural selection, which has profoundly influenced the scientific and philosophical comprehension of biological phenomena and of our place in Nature. This book argues that contemporary biology should progress towards and revolve around an even more fundamental idea, that of autonomy. Biological autonomy describes living organisms as organised systems, which are able to self-produce and self-maintain as integrated entities, to establish their own goals and norms, and to promote the conditions of their existence through their interactions with the environment. Topics covered in this book include organisation and biological emergence, organisms, agency, levels of autonomy, cognition, and a look at the historical dimension of autonomy. The current development of scientific investigations on autonomous organisation calls for a theoretical and philosophical analysis. This can contribute to the elaboration of an original understanding of life - including human life - on Earth, opening new perspectives and enabling fecund interactions with other existing theories and approaches. This book takes up the challenge.

On the one hand, nobody wants to be a dick. On the other hand, dicks are everywhere! They cut in line, talk behind our backs, recline into our seats, and even have the power to morph into trolls online. Their powers are impressive, but with a little foresight and thoughtfulness, we can take a stand against dickishness today. How Not to Be a Dick is packed with honest and straightforward advice, but it also includes playful illustrations showing two well-meaning (but not always well behaved) young people as they confront moments of potential dickishness in their everyday lives. Sometimes they falter, sometimes they triumph, but they always seek to find a better way. And with their help, you can too. Just see the agreement at the beginning of the book: I pledge to use the tools and techniques provided in this book to help make the world a less dickish place. "Doherty fires absurd twenty-first-century zingers that happen to be really, really, really funny."—starred, Booklist

Photography Theory presents forty of the world's most active art historians and theorists, including Victor Burgin, Joel Snyder, Rosalind Krauss, Alan Trachtenberg, Geoffrey Batchen, Carol Squiers, Margaret Iversen and Abigail Solomon-Godeau in animated debate on the nature of photography. Photography has been around for nearly two centuries, but we are no closer to understanding what it is. For some people, a photograph is an optically accurate impression of the world, for others, it is mainly a way of remembering people and places. Some view it as a sign of bourgeois life, a kind of addiction of the middle class, whilst others see it as a troublesome interloper that has confused people's ideas of reality and fine art to the point that they have difficulty even defining what a photograph is. For some, the whole question of finding photography's nature is itself misguided from the beginning. This provocative second volume in the Routledge The Art Seminar series presents not one but many answers to the question what makes a photograph a photograph?

Decision-making has always influenced everyday life and today, more than ever, it's present within selections, award ceremonies, public speeches, auctions, judgments and consensus making. As if pointing out the elephant in the room, this publication is the first artist's book focusing entirely on the object of decision-making and the visual representation of authority par excellence: the gavel. Examined through the lens of a peculiar group of gavels owned by the International Institute of Social History (IISH) in Amsterdam, ones that had belonged to revolutionary and emancipatory movements from the 19th century up to recent times, these objects are questioned through their silence and their shifting symbolic meanings. 'The President's Hammers' investigates these modern sceptres of power both from an artistic point of view - following artist Diego Tonus towards the process of substituting the IISH's original gavels with their replicas, in the attempt to show them for the first time to the public as a collection outside of the Archive - and from their anthropological, psychoanalytical and socio-political perspectives in dialogue with selected authors, contributing to repositioning the gavel within today's cultural landscape. In this Catalogue Raisonnè, gavels are observed as tools of power able to canalise a message and that, articulating a language of their own, are used as tools for creation or destruction within a specific discourse. The unknown histories and derivations of IISH's silent gavels open a space of artistic investigation that allows Diego Tonus, in dialogue with the other contributors, to question the paradoxical implications of the decision-making 'hammer' in a broad sense and the fetishist attraction towards these objects, the history of which is quite blurred and ranges from secret societies to recent parliaments.
