"After her husband's sudden death, Ginny Gillespie travels with his ashes to Paris, where she meets and falls in love with Roland Keppi, a strange, visionary man without a country. Their dreamlike affair is disrupted when Roland vanishes, deported to a German camp for people without identity papers. But coincidences, dreams, and visions eventually reunite them with the promise of a bright future. Set primarily in France between the world wars, the narrative moves easily between the present and the past and among Ginny, Roland, and the important people in their lives. These intertwining stories raise questions of fate and the meaning of family, identity, and happiness."--Library Journal

"Chronologically examining the nature of his art within the context of mass media and photojournalism, this handsome volume charts the thirty-year career of the artist and photographer Christopher Williams (b. 1956). Featuring 100 color illustrations, the book also includes a trio of essays by authors Mark Godfrey, Roxana Marcoci, and Matthew S. Witkovsky that demonstrate how Williams, with high craft and a critical eye, deliberately engages yet reinterprets the conventions of photojournalism, picture archives, and commercial imagery through uncanny mimicry. Committed to the history of photography as a medium of art and intellectual inquiry, Williams's current series tackles the interplay of photography and cinema, upending viewer expectations and the role of spectacle"--

The Museum of Innocence - set in Istanbul between 1975 and today - tells the story of Kemal, the son of one of Istanbul's richest families, and of his obsessive love for a poor and distant relation, the beautiful Fusun, who is a shop-girl in a small boutique. In his romantic pursuit of Füsun over the next eight years, Kemal compulsively amasses a collection of objects that chronicles his lovelorn progress-a museum that is both a map of a society and of his heart. The novel depicts a panoramic view of life in Istanbul as it chronicles this long, obsessive love affair; and Pamuk beautifully captures the identity crisis experienced by Istanbul's upper classes that find themselves caught between traditional and westernised ways of being. Orhan Pamuk's first novel since winning the Nobel Prize is a stirring love story and exploration of the nature of romance. Pamuk built The Museum of Innocence in the house in which his hero's fictional family lived, to display Kemal's strange collection of objects associated with Fusun and their relationship. The house opened to the public in 2012 in the Beyoglu district of Istanbul. 'Pamuk has created a work concerning romantic love worthy to stand in the company of Lolita, Madame Bovary and Anna Karenina.' --Financial Times

This book presents a refreshing new approach to avant-garde art by demonstrating that a genuine core of modernism manifests a positive, life-affirming attitude. Donald Kuspit and Lynn Gamwell challenge the assumption that disintegration and negativity provide the most authentic artistic responses to this century's gloomy zeitgeist. Lavishly illustrated, their book includes colorful images of paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts, as well as photographs of spectacular gardens.

As museums begin to focus on the importance of visitor happiness and well-being, a growing number of studies have been conducted on how the museum environment can impact well-being. However, there has been limited research into how visitors are experiencing happiness in these settings. The purpose of this study was to explore how and in what ways museum visitors experience momentary happiness. The study was structured as a mixed-methods descriptive survey to understand what happiness means to museum visitors, in what circumstances they experienced momentary happiness, and how they express momentary happiness in a museum environment. Interviews were completed with 180 visitors and 75 visitor observations were collected across three Seattle-area museums. It was found that all visitors in this study experienced some level of momentary happiness during their museum visit. Visitors were most likely to experience momentary happiness throughout their visit, followed by a specific exhibit or activity and they most often expressed momentary happiness through physically or verbally engaging with their surroundings. This study provides evidence of momentary happiness in museums and could inform the design of future museum programs containing happiness enhancing aspects as well as facets of visitor satisfaction.
