Book Principles of Copula Theory

Download or read book Principles of Copula Theory written by Fabrizio Durante and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives readers the solid and formal mathematical background to apply copulas to a range of mathematical areas, such as probability, real analysis, measure theory, and algebraic structures. The authors prove the results as simply as possible and unify various methods scattered throughout the literature in common frameworks, including shuffles of copulas.

Book The Contingent Object of Contemporary Art

Download or read book The Contingent Object of Contemporary Art written by Martha Buskirk and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2005-02-18 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of transformations in the nature of the art object and artistic authorship in the last four decades. In this book, Martha Buskirk addresses the interesting fact that since the early 1960s, almost anything can and has been called art. Among other practices, contemporary artists have employed mass-produced elements, impermanent materials, and appropriated imagery, have incorporated performance and video, and have created works through instructions carried out by others. Furthermore, works of art that lack traditional signs of authenticity or permanence have been embraced by institutions long devoted to the original and the permanent. Buskirk begins with questions of authorship raised by minimalists' use of industrial materials and methods, including competing claims of ownership and artistic authorship evident in conflicts over the right to fabricate artists' works. Examining recent examples of appropriation, she finds precedents in pop art and the early twentieth-century readymade and explores the intersection of contemporary artistic copying and the system of copyrights, trademarks, and brand names characteristic of other forms of commodity production. She also investigates the ways that connections between work and context have transformed art and institutional conventions, the impact of new materials on definitions of medium, the role of the document as both primary and secondary object, and the significance of conceptually oriented performance work for the intersection of photography and the human body in contemporary art. Buskirk explores how artists active in the 1980s and 1990s have recombined strategies of the art of the 1960s and 1970s. She also shows how the mechanisms through which art is presented shape not only readings of the work but the work itself. She uses her discussion of the readymade and conceptual art to explore broader issues of authorship, reproduction, context, and temporality.

Download or read book Soft Power written by Mingjiang Li and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2009-08-15 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soft power has become a very popular concept in international affairs, appearing in government policy papers, academic discussions, and the popular media. In China, soft power has become one of the most frequently used phrases among political leaders, leading academics, and journalists. Defined against hard power, which often involves threat and coercion, soft power applies attraction, persuasion, and cooperation, finding its sources in culture, political values, and foreign policies. China, rich in culture and traditional philosophy, boasts abundant sources of soft power. Soft Power attempts to analyze the domestic and international views of China's soft power, the main strengths and weaknesses of China's soft power, and the application of soft power in China's international politics. It provides a comprehensive exploration of the soft power dimension in China's foreign relations by integrating views from various disciplines, such as history, education, culture, political economy, comparative politics, and philosophy. The book argues that soft power has become a very popular concept in China, that China is contemplating and exploring an innovative strategy in its rise and international politics, and that there have been quite a few notable elements of this in China's diplomatic practice, including softer rhetoric, promotion of the Chinese culture abroad, economic diplomacy, and image building. The book also argues that the limitations of China's soft power primarily stem from political values and China's own transitions, and reflects the reality that views and opinions regarding China's soft power are fairly diverse both in China and in the international arena.

Book The Fountain Drawings

  • Release : 1998
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 356 pages

Download or read book The Fountain Drawings written by Mike Bidlo and published by Tony Shafrazi Gallery/Gallery Bruno Bischofberger. This book was released on 1998 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps the most infamous object in the history of 20th century art is Duchamp's Fountain. Rosetta stone to the avant-garde, Duchamp's 1917 urinal redefined, in one bold conceptual stroke, the possibilities of art forever after -- entering modern consciousness, and signifying the start of a counter-tradition of ready-mades, anti-art, and conceptualism that is 80 years old. It is therefore appropriate that artist Mike Bidlo, who has in the past made appropriations of legendary artworks (by Picasso, Man Ray, Brancusi, etc.), here focuses his attentive eye on Fountain. This book catalogues the surprising results of Bidlo's homage, and taken together, these 300+ drawings bring out both the totemic and painterly qualities of Fountain. The book includes an extensive discussion between Bidlo and critics Arthur Danto and Francis Naumann.

Download or read book Kelley Walker written by Kelley Walker and published by Contemporary Art Museum, St. Louis. This book was released on 2016 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With nods to artistic influences ranging from Andy Warhol to Jackson Pollock and Sigmar Polke, Walker?s work interrogates the ways a single image can migrate into a number of cultural contexts. Throughout his career, Walker has explored the manipulation and repurposing of images in order to destabilize issues of identity, race, class, sexuality, and politics. Often using such technologies as 3-D modeling software and laser-cutting, the artist works in a variety of media, including photography, painting, printmaking, collage, and sculpture. In an era of digital reproduction, Walker?s work draws attention to popular culture?s perpetual consumption and reuse of images. 00Exhibition: Contemporary Art Museum, St. Louis, United States (16.09. - 31.12.2016).

Book The Rhetoric of Soft Power

Download or read book The Rhetoric of Soft Power written by Craig Hayden and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rhetoric of Soft Power: Public Diplomacy in Global Contexts provides a comparative assessment of public diplomacy and strategic communication initiatives in order to portray how Joseph Nye's notion of "soft power" has translated into context-specific strategies of international influence. The book examines four cases--Japan, Venezuela, China, and the United States--to illuminate the particular significance of culture, foreign publics, and communication technologies for the foreign policy ambitions of each country. This study explores the notion of soft power as a set of theoretical arguments about power, and as a reflection of how nation-states perceive what is an increasingly necessary perspective on international relations in an age of ubiquitous global communication flows and encroaching networks of non-state actors. Through an analysis of policy discourse, public diplomacy initiatives, and related programs of strategic influence, soft power in each case represents a localized set of assumptions about the requirements of persuasion, the relevance of foreign audiences to state goals, and the perception of what counts as a soft power resource. This timely analysis provides an unprecedented comparative investigation of the relationship between soft power and public diplomacy.
