Book excerpt: Over fifty pages of colorful works by American-Venezuelan visual artist Arturo Correa. He has achieved remarkable success during 22 years of an artistic career. In 1996, Correa graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Central Florida in Orlando. He subsequently relocated to New York City and earned a Master of Arts degree with a major in Painting at New York University.Museums, galleries, and international art fairs have witnessed over fifty individual and group exhibitions of this prolific visual artist. Furthermore, a vast number of Correa's works belong to prominent collectors around the world. Today, Correa's paintings can be seen sharing walls next to great masters like Robert Rauschenberg, Fernando Botero, Armando Rever�n, and Jasper Johns.As a highly respected mid-career artist, Arturo Correa legitimately carries the torch and follows the path of late 20th and early 21st century post-modernist masters such as Bob Rauschenberg, David Salle, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Francesco Clemente.

Judy and Charles Tate are among the University of Texas at Austin's most exemplary alumni and friends. Their most recent contribution to UT comes in the form of the gift of their collection of modern and contemporary Latin American art to the Blanton. The Tates' gift promises to foster new opportunities for study across disciplines and will greatly enhance the holdings of the museum, which has been a leader in the field of Latin American art since the late 1960s. This fully illustrated catalogue of the collection will include approximately 120 works of art by many of the artists who were key to the creation of modernism in Latin America, including Tarsila do Amaral, Lygia Clark, Frida Kahlo, Wifredo Lam, Carlos Mérida, Armando Reverón, Diego Rivera, Xul Solar, and Joaquín Torres-García. The catalogue will also feature contributions from UT president William Powers, Blanton curator of Latin American art Beverly Adams, and UT art and art history graduate students, as well as Blanton director Simone Wicha in conversation with Judy and Charles Tate and Gabriel Pérez-Barreiro, director of the Patricia Cisneros Collection.

Book Missing Time

    Book Details:
  • Author : Budd Hopkins
  • Publisher : August Night Press
  • Release : 2021-04-20
  • ISBN : 9781786771513
  • Pages : 264 pages

Download or read book Missing Time written by Budd Hopkins and published by August Night Press. This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1981, this pioneering work by Budd Hopkins was the first focused study of an enigma that would come to captivate the world and challenge our understanding of the universe. The influence of Missing Time was such that its title is now deeply embedded into the lexicon of UFO studies-synonymous with that most controversial and troubling of topics: alien abduction. At the time of its writing, Hopkins could not have predicted the impact of Missing Time, not only within UFOlogy, but in popular culture worldwide. The facts, stories, and theories presented herein laid the foundation for the first mainstream debates surrounding reports of human encounters with small, grey-skinned entities-non-human beings with hypnotic black eyes who came silently in the night for their own mysterious purposes. These vivid descriptions as documented by Hopkins would trigger buried memories worldwide in people from all walks of life-to the extent that the so-called "Greys" now represent the dominant cultural imagining of an alien lifeform. Missing Time is a comparative study of individuals distinct from one another in their life circumstances, separated by geography, but connected by their shared experience of a disturbing mystery with profound implications. An essential addition to the library of any serious scholar of the anomalous, and of all who dare to explore the physical, psychological, and spiritual extremities of human experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the PEN/Hemingway Award * A National Bestseller “An exceptional story collection.” —New York Times Book Review The well-intentioned protagonists of Brief Encounters with Che Guevera—including a disillusioned NGO worker, the wife of a special operations officer, and an obssessed ornithologist—are caught, to both disastrous and hilarious effect, in the maelstrom of political and social upheaval surrounding them. With masterful pacing and a robust sense of the absurd, each story is a self-contained adventure, steeped in the heady mix of tragedy and danger, excitement and hope, that characterizes countries in transition. An intelligent and keenly observed collection, Brief Encounters with Che Guevera marks the arrival of a striking and resonant new voice that speaks adeptly to the intimate connection between the foreign, the familiar, and the inescapably human.

Book A Man among Other Men

Download or read book A Man among Other Men written by Jordanna Matlon and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2022-05-15 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Man among Other Men examines competing constructions of modern manhood in the West African metropolis of Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire. Engaging the histories, representational repertoires, and performative identities of men in Abidjan and across the Black Atlantic, Jordanna Matlon shows how French colonial legacies and media tropes of Blackness act as powerful axes, rooting masculine identity and value within labor, consumerism, and commodification. Through a broad chronological and transatlantic scope that culminates in a deep ethnography of the livelihoods and lifestyles of men in Abidjan's informal economy, Matlon demonstrates how men's subjectivities are formed in dialectical tension by and through hegemonic ideologies of race and patriarchy. A Man among Other Men provides a theoretically innovative, historically grounded, and empirically rich account of Black masculinity that illuminates the sustained power of imaginaries even as capitalism affords a deficit of material opportunities. Revealed is a story of Black abjection set against the anticipation of male privilege, a story of the long crisis of Black masculinity in racial capitalism.
