This book fills these gaps in a striking and original way by means of ten concise thematic chapters which explain the origins of these concepts from the book of Revelation in an accessible way. These explanations are augmented and developed via a carefully selected sample of the ways in which the concepts have been treated by artists through the centuries. The 120 visual examples are drawn from a wide range of time periods and media including the ninth-century Trier Apocalypse, thirteenth-century Anglo-Norman Apocalypse Manuscripts such as the Lambeth and Trinity Apocalypses, the fourteenth-century Angers Apocalypse Tapestry, fifteenth-century Apocalypse altarpieces by Van Eyck and Memling, Dürer and Cranach's sixteenth-century Apocalypse woodcuts, and more recently a range of works by William Blake, J.M.W. Turner, Max Beckmann, as well as film posters and film stills, cartoons, and children's book illustrations.

From the author of Direct Watercolor and The Urban Sketcher, as well as the popular art-blog CitizenSketcher.com.Marc Taro Holmes is an internationally collected, award-winning watercolorist, and an elected member of the Canadian Society of Painters in Watercolour and the Society of Canadian Artists.He is also the creator of social media watercolor painting marathon #30x30DirectWatercolor2019. An open call to anyone, to paint thirty paintings in thirty days in the month of June. The APOCALYPSE VARIATIONS is a collection of Marc's paintings from the 2019 event. The book is both a love letter to watercolor painting and a darkly pessimistic rendition of contemporary landscape painting.Unlike his previous books, this is not a how-to for beginners. This is Marc's first fine art monograph. An art book in the old tradition. You will find large reproductions of the paintings, paired with close-up detail shots and preparatory sketches. In the text, Marc discusses the thinking behind the paintings with complete honesty. It's likely that lovers of his previous work will be surprised at his new direction. Or perhaps not, if they have been following Marc's social media and reading between the lines.Please, do not purchase this book expecting Marc's chatty online-instructor-mode full of helpful encouragement for aspiring artists. There are no tips-and-tricks or self-training programs. For that sort of thing, please visit Marc's website CitizenSketcher.com.This book is meant as inspiration to anyone seriously interested in expressive watercolor painting, or, for fellow studio artists dealing with the issues of painting in series and making relevant contemporary work. > Please note: Some readers with a strong preference for image brightness and contrast, or the ability to zoom, may prefer to experience the Amazon Kindle e-book edition on a full-color tablet, laptop or personal computer. This paper edition is for art book-collectors who want a hard copy in their library. It is a self-published title printed on Amazon's standard, white, 100gsm paper with a glossy card stock cover. Thanks, ~Marc

"Doomsday Dreams" uses international contemporary art as a lens to explore the allure, dangers and positive potential of present day apocalyptic thinking. Apocalypse is a double-edged concept, balanced between hope and despair, simultaneously encouraging the pursuit of justice and a starkly dualistic sense of good and evil. It underlies populist liberation movements and explains the attraction of authoritarian leaders. The artists discussed in "Doomsday Dreams" reflect on the ways that the modern world has been profoundly shaped by millennia-old conceptions of history as a struggle to the death between the forces of good and evil. These artists' draw on apocalyptic symbols grounded in religious conceptions of judgment, retribution, redemption and sin. They employ these ideas to ask: Why has Apocalypse become the fallback position when we are faced with calamity? How does it shape the way we deal with the world? When is Doomsday a useful metaphor and when does it foreclose more hopeful possibilities? These questions have profound implications for contemporary society. Ideas that originated in ancient Zoroastrianism and spread to the three monotheistic religions continue to define our reality today. The apocalyptic cults emerging within radical Islam are one manifestation, as are western obsessions with the "clash of civilizations." So is rhetoric of the Alt-Right that has gained currency since Donald Trump's election. Apocalyptic thinking impacts our debates over climate change, pandemics, immigration, and technology. It also underlies the popular fascination with Zombies, Armageddon and renewed fears of nuclear holocaust. The artists discussed in "Doomsday Dreams" come from diverse religious backgrounds. They employ many different media and exhibit varying degrees of religious belief. Together, they reveal how art can help us understand the complicated ideas and irresolvable contradictions that surround "Doomsday Dreams." This book brings together for the first time cultural studies, theology, world history, politics and philosophy. Heartney explores End Times symbolism, metaphor, irony and allegory in contemporary art and shows how artists are addressing the fearsome challenges that face us in a time of social, political and sectarian upheaval.
