Book CB Hoyo  I Didn t Know How to Name This

Download or read book CB Hoyo I Didn t Know How to Name This written by Jack Kyle Franklin and published by . This book was released on 2022-03-22 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Words about masterpieces, on masterpieces: the irreverent pop art of an emerging Cuban painter Since he first burst onto the scene in 2017, the prolific, self-taught Cuban painter CB Hoyo (born 1995) has enjoyed an enormous popularity both online and in the art industry: he has more than 500,000 Instagram followers and has held multiple solo shows throughout the world. Hoyo's work comprises "fakes" of works by canonical artists such as Warhol, Banksy, Matisse and Rothko, which he paints over with his own irreverent commentary. In one painting, titled It's a Fake Magritte, Hoyo depicts Magritte's famous The Treachery of Images complete with its well-known pronouncement, "Ceci n'est pas une pipe." Above this, Hoyo has painted in red, "This is not a Magritte." Hoyo's art, relying on blunt humor and Dada-esque irreverence, embraces the new chaotic normality in which we live. This hardcover volume, the artist's first monograph, contains 170 reproductions.

Book excerpt: "The newest winner of the Tony Hillerman Prize, a debut mystery set in the Southwest starring a former rodeo cowboy turned private investigator, told in a transfixingly original style. Rodeo Grace Garnet lives alone, save for his old dog, in a remote corner of Arizona known to locals as the Hole. He doesn't get many visitors, but a body found near his home has drawn police attention to his front door. The victim is not one of the many illegal immigrants who risk their lives to cross the border just south of the Hole, but is instead a member of one of the local Indian tribes. Retired from the rodeo circuit and scraping by on piece-work as a private investigator, Rodeo doesn't have much choice but to say yes when offered an unusual case. An elderly Indian woman has hired him to help discover who murdered her grandson, but she seems strangely uninterested in the results. Her indifference seems heartless, but as Rodeo pursues his case he learns that it's nothing compared to true hatred. And he's about to realize just how far hate can go. CB McKenzie's Bad Country captures the rough-and-tumble corners of the Southwest in accomplished, confident prose, with a hardnosed plot that will keep readers riveted."--

Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE SPUR AWARD FOR BEST WESTERN CONTEMPORARY NOVEL EDGAR AWARD FINALIST FOR BEST FIRST NOVEL SHAMUS AWARD FINALIST FOR BEST FIRST NOVEL Rodeo Grace Garnet lives with his old dog in a remote corner of Arizona known to locals as El Hoyo. Retired from the rodeo circuit and scraping by on piecework as a bounty hunter, warrant server, and divorce snoop, he doesn’t have much choice but to say yes when hired to solve the murder of an Indian teenager, whose death is part of a mysterious rompecabeza—a classic crime puzzler—that includes multiple killings, cold-blooded betrayals, and low-down scheming, with Rodeo caught in the middle. Bad Country is a noir novel that is as deep and twisty as a desert arroyo. With confident, accomplished prose, CB McKenzie captures the rough-and-tumble outer reaches of the Southwest in a transfixingly original style that transcends the traditional crime novel.

Download or read book Radical Joy for Hard Times written by Trebbe Johnson and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time of uncertainty and devastation--from pandemics to environmental catastrophe--a call to action for finding beauty, creating art, and healing in community. When a beloved place is decimated by physical damage, many may hit the donate button or call their congressperson. But award-winning author Trebbe Johnson argues that we need new methods for coping with these losses and invites readers to reconsider what constitutes “worthwhile action.” She discusses real wounded places ranging from weapons-testing grounds at Eglin Air Force Base, to Appalachian mountain tops destroyed by mining. These stories, along with tools for community engagement—ceremony, vigil, apology, and the creation of art with on-site materials—show us how we can find beauty in these places and discover new sources of meaning and community.

Book Writing in a Bilingual Program

Download or read book Writing in a Bilingual Program written by Carole Edelsky and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1986-01-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the writing of children enrolled in an unusual bilingual program in the Southwest that emphasized writing in the first language until literacy was well established, and which attempted to offer an integrated curriculum. As a result, the volume presents research findings on children's spelling in both Spanish and English, their written code switches, segmentation, beginnings and endings of pieces, quality of the content, the relationship of first and second language writing, the role of the teacher in children's writing, and evidence that refutes common beliefs about writing, bilingualism, and other topics. From a broader perspective, the volume presents three different, yet interwoven stories: changes in children's writing over time; evolution of the theoretical stance used to analyze writing as well as changes in the theory that played an important role in shaping some of what occurred in the children's classrooms; and an unfolding of some of the events in this bilingual program and the relation of these events to children's writing and classroom practice.

Download or read book Burn What Will Burn written by C. B. McKenzie and published by Minotaur Books. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Burn What Will Burn is a gritty, gripping mystery and an enthralling character study of its poet-protagonist, who is self-exiled and bedeviled by the locals, the summer Arkansas heat, and his own past. I was hooked by sentence one and burned right through the pages."—Michael Kardos, author of Before He Finds Her Bob Reynolds doesn't recognize the body in the creek, but he does recognize the danger of it. He's a newcomer to town, not entirely welcome, and not entirely on good footing with the sheriff. So far he's kept his head down, mostly over the bar at the Crow's Nest. But he has interests other than drinking and spending his inheritance, including one that goes by the name Tammy Fay Smith and who may have caught the sheriff's eye as well. Reynolds would rather pretend he never saw the body, but when it disappears, he begins to doubt what little he knew about this secretive town, a town that seems to become more unwelcoming by the day. Try as he might, he just can't forget the body, despite the advice he's been given to do so, and despite the evidence to suggest that he might be disappearing himself soon enough. Following his acclaimed, award-winning debut, Burn What Will Burn confirms CB McKenzie as a one-of-a-kind crime novelist with an unforgettably original voice.

Book The Name of God Y eH oW aH Which is pronounced as it is Written I Eh oU Ah

Download or read book The Name of God Y eH oW aH Which is pronounced as it is Written I Eh oU Ah written by Gerard Gertoux and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The understanding of God's name YHWH is so controversial that it is eventually the controversy of controversies, or the ultimate controversy. Indeed, why most of competent Hebrew scholars propagate patently false explanations about God's name? Why do the Jews refuse to read God's name as it is written and read Adonay "my Lord" (a plural of majesty) instead of it? Why God's name is usually punctuated e, â (shewa, qamats) by the Masoretes what makes its reading impossible, because the 4 consonants of the name YHWH must have at least 3 vowels (long or short) to be read, like the words 'aDoNâY and 'eLoHîM "God" (a plural of majesty), which have 4 consonants and 3 vowels? At last, why the obvious reading "Yehowah", according to theophoric names, which all begin by Yehô-, without exception, is so despised, and why the simple biblical meaning, "He will be" from Exodus 3:14, is rejected.
