Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gaylen Hansen, recognized for several decades as one of the most amusing, intriguing, and challenging artists of the Northwest, is the subject of this lavishly illustrated volume. In the company of magpies, wolf-dogs that carry chunks of moon in their jaws, gargantuan grasshoppers, monstrous trout, and flagrant tulips, Hansen's quixotic alter ego "The Kernal" populates the artists's mad and slightly ominous Palouse landscapes. Underlying all of these comic dramas is the work of a consumately skilled painter, unrelenting well into his eighth decade.

  • Author : Bob Nugent
  • Publisher : Board and Bench Publishing
  • Release : 2007-10-01
  • ISBN : 1891267922
  • Pages : 276 pages

Download or read book Imagery written by Bob Nugent and published by Board and Bench Publishing. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1985, winemaker Joe Benziger and Sonoma artist Bob Nugent struck on the idea of putting original art on special releases of Imagery Estate wines. The goal was straight-forward: commission the world's modern art luminaries to create works for reproduction onto wine labels. Two decades and 160 labels later, they have assembled a staggering collection of contemporary art, from the likes of Sol Lewitt, Terry Winters, Nancy Graves, John Baldessari, Judy Pfaff, and Bob Arneson. This book highlights 133 works of art, the best of the Imagery collection. The images are big and lush, and accompanied by biographical sketches of the artists' careers, as well as a short description of their individual ideas and methods. The pictorial index shows the works in their label-form, from 1985 to the most recent vintages. These images are evocations of wine's multi-faceted ability to inspire us.

Book Shark

    Book Details:
  • Author : Richard Ellis
  • Publisher : Rowman & Littlefield
  • Release : 2012-04-17
  • ISBN : 1461747929
  • Pages : 291 pages

Download or read book Shark written by Richard Ellis and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012-04-17 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The sharks, ancient or modern, real or imaginary, have always been with us, and will probably remain with us forever. They appear not only in movies and literature, but in countless permutations of size, shape, and materials, permeating our daily lives with their silent menace. In a sense, humans live in a world replete with sharks, not vice-versa.” Thus Richard Ellis sets about chronicling and debunking the myths of sharks throughout history. From 18th century art to the phenomena of JAWS, “the shark” has remained the indomitable aggressor of the deep, the last demon of humankind. The image of the shark and the fear it inspires infiltrates our daily lives with its mythical power and strength. But it is not man who should fear the shark. Our need to dominate these predators is destroying them and their habitat. Through hundreds of full-color images Ellis proves the necessity of preserving these majestic creatures. As curator of the Ft. Lauderdale Museum of Art’s exhibition entitled “Shark”, debuting May 2012, Ellis adeptly turns these sleek, efficient hunters from monsters of the deep into rare, beautiful forces of nature.

Book Art from the Swamp

Download or read book Art from the Swamp written by Bruce Cole and published by Encounter Books. This book was released on 2018-08-28 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few Americans are aware that Washington is the country’s largest single patron of art. Every year a group of unelected federal bureaucrats and congressmen spends millions of taxpayer dollars on monuments, sculptures, buildings, plays, and exhibitions, largely without public knowledge or involvement. Frank Gehry’s outlandish memorial to President Eisenhower, an installation that blinks quotes from Eleanor Roosevelt in Morse code at a cash-strapped Veterans Administration hospital, a giant $750,00 wood sculpture whose fumes sickened workers in an FBI building in Miami, FL, and funding for research on the visual cultures of tea consumption in Imperial India are just a few of the hundreds of unwanted and wasteful projects supported annually by the General Services Administration, the National Endowments for the Arts and Humanities, and their enablers on Capitol Hill. In this book, Bruce Cole, the longest serving chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities, exposes the programs and policies responsible for this glut of unsupervised bureaucratic pork and offers suggestions for their reform or elimination.

Book SOC for Supply Chain

Download or read book SOC for Supply Chain written by AICPA and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-05-20 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internal and external forces such as globalization, global interconnectivity, automation, and other technological advancements are making today’s supply chains highly sophisticated and complex. For organizations that produce, manufacture or distribute products, there’s often a high level of interdependence and connectivity with their suppliers and their customers and business partners. Although the interconnectedness of these organizations can be beneficial (increased revenues, expanded market opportunities, and cost reduction), the ability of organizations to meet their goals is often increasingly dependent on events, processes, and controls that are not visible and are often beyond their control – such as a supplier’s controls. That’s why the demand for transparency in supply chains is now higher than ever before, and why this is the perfect time for you to help organizations assess their supply chain risks, evaluate the system controls within their manufacturing, production, or distribution systems, and communicate their supply chain management efforts to those with whom they do business. Accountants and financial managers can also increase the credibility of the supply chain information communicated by the organization by providing an opinion on the organization’s supply chain efforts. This guide enables the accountant and financial manager to examine and report on the description of a system for manufacturing, producing and distributing goods as well as on the controls within that system using a dynamic, proactive, and agile approach. It will show how to conduct this examination in accordance with the attestation standards. The guide may also be helpful when providing readiness assessments to clients, who are not quite ready for an examination level service and need help to get there. The guide also includes excerpts from the two distinct, but complementary sets of criteria developed by the AICPA to assist practitioners with SOC for Supply Chain engagements: the description criteria and the 2017 trust services criteria.
