Download or read book Image and Presence written by Natalie Carnes and published by Encountering Traditions. This book was released on 2017-12-12 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Images increasingly saturate our world, making present to us what is distant or obscure. Yet the power of images also arises from what they do not make present--from a type of absence they do not dispel. Joining a growing multidisciplinary conversation that rejects an understanding of images as lifeless objects, this book offers a theological meditation on the ways images convey presence into our world. Just as Christ negates himself in order to manifest the invisible God, images, Natalie Carnes contends, negate themselves to give more than they literally or materially are. Her Christological reflections bring iconoclasm and iconophilia into productive relation, suggesting that they need not oppose one another. Investigating such images as the biblical golden calf and paintings of the Virgin Mary, Carnes explores how to distinguish between iconoclasms that maintain fidelity to their theological intentions and those that lead to visual temptation. Offering ecumenical reflections on issues that have long divided Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox traditions, Image and Presence provokes a fundamental reconsideration of images and of the global image crises of our time.

This book was released on 2016-07-25 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many couples struggling in their relationships with each other. Couples, who are dating and who are married, are settling for less than God's best. There are several reasons why, but perhaps there is a lack of understanding about the dynamics and expectations of their relationships. God lets us know He has a plan for our lives as well as our relationships. That plan for couples is to reflect His Image. In order to be able to look like God, we must be willing to look at what God intended for us and examine how we got into the predicament that many couples find themselves. There is an enemy that constantly tries to keep you thinking that you are okay in your relationship with God and your life mate. Can we honestly say that we are where we need to be in our relationship with God and with each other? In this book, you will find out from Genesis how God created us in His Image and how we are able to live His image every day in our lives. He created us to be a reflection of His image and that image reveals itself in many ways. Every couple can be that reflection, even if you find your relationship or marriage in shambles. This book offers you the answers and the steps to grow as a couple through Christ. As a couple, you can reflect the presence of Jesus and truly inspire others. This can happen, if you allow the word of God and the Holy Spirit to transform your relationship to be a powerful witness for Christ. You can become a Reflection of His Image.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We often hold a different view of ourselves than what we project to others. But it is during times of inner reflection that we see the truth of our being, for better or worse. Instead of fearing the exposure of our true self, we should embrace it and fully appreciate the depth and breadth of our character. A Reflection of Lifes Image explores the unique relationships we have not only with our inner spirit, but also with the spirits of those around us. Through vivid imagery and stunning verse, Edward Parrish Jr. brilliantly captures how we as humans hide our true selves, yet secretly long to reveal our real personalities. Parrishs poetry uses images of nature to convey human emotions, thoughts, and actions. In his title poem, Reflections, Parrish compares a flower to a soft-spoken word while Learning uses autumn to create a colorful composition that exposes the moments of nature as it surrounds us. In addition, Parrish examines the seasons of life with those of nature, crafting a lasting tribute to this intricate connection. With a gift for translating emotion onto the page, Parrish has created a deeply moving poetry collection filled with depth. A Reflection of Lifes Image will fill your mind with peace and open your heart to the human condition.

Download or read book Chromatic Reflection written by Pascale Georgiev and published by . This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chromatic Reflection is an artist monograph by Los Angeles based sculptor and photographer Aaron Farley.Unearthing a long neglected series of medium format negatives whilst exploring downtown St Louis' Queen Of Lace, Continental-Life Building, Farley salvaged such, archiving these until July of 2016, and Chromatic Reflection's genesis. Encompassing negatives created by a professional photographic studio once housed within the Queen Of Lace, circa 1960, Chromatic Reflection saw Farley photograph these abandoned negatives, then infuse such throughout with brilliant colour field, enigmatic dimensionality, and contemplative distortion. Authoring engaging chromatic works of parallel chronology, halted ephemerality, the substantiation of time's abstraction, Farley's work explores that paradoxical endeavour of restructuring chronology through captured image, substituted continuum, and material memory.

Book excerpt: The classic work on the evaluation of city form. What does the city's form actually mean to the people who live there? What can the city planner do to make the city's image more vivid and memorable to the city dweller? To answer these questions, Mr. Lynch, supported by studies of Los Angeles, Boston, and Jersey City, formulates a new criterion—imageability—and shows its potential value as a guide for the building and rebuilding of cities. The wide scope of this study leads to an original and vital method for the evaluation of city form. The architect, the planner, and certainly the city dweller will all want to read this book.
