Download or read book Lasting Impressions written by Jesse Matz and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Impressionism captured the world's imagination in the late nineteenth century and remains with us today. Portraying the dynamic effects of modernity, impressionist artists revolutionized the arts and the wider culture. Impressionism transformed the very pattern of reality, introducing new ways to look at and think about the world and our experience of it. Its legacy has been felt in many major contributions to popular and high culture, from cubism and early cinema to the works of Zadie Smith and W. G. Sebald, from advertisements for Pepsi to the observations of Oliver Sacks and Malcolm Gladwell. Yet impressionism's persistence has also been a problem, a matter of inauthenticity, superficiality, and complicity in what is merely "impressionistic" about culture today. Jesse Matz considers these two legacies—the positive and the negative—to explain impressionism's true contemporary significance. As Lasting Impressions moves through contemporary literature, painting, and popular culture, Matz explains how the perceptual role, cultural effects, and social implications of impressionism continue to generate meaning and foster new forms of creativity, understanding, and public engagement.

His devoted but long-suffering sons, Ben and Frank, are trying to prepare themselves and their families for Zoltan's eventual departure...but they can't quite bring themselves to believe that the end is really at hand, and neither can Zoltan himself. The head of a family marked by war and tragedy for decades, he "can't stand to be in a room with a miserable person" and has done his best to keep the pain of his refugee past from his beloved children. But as he faces the end of his life, he discovers a heartbreaking secret from the War that will ultimately bring the family together--or irrevocably disrupt it.

Download or read book Defiant Spirits written by Ross King and published by D & M Publishers. This book was released on 2010-09-25 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in 1912, Defiant Spirits traces the artistic development of Tom Thomson and the future members of the Group of Seven, Franklin Carmichael, Lawren Harris, A. Y. Jackson, Franz Johnston, Arthur Lismer, J. E. H. MacDonald, and Frederick Varley, over a dozen years in Canadian history. Working in an eclectic and sometimes controversial blend of modernist styles, they produced what an English critic celebrated in the 1920s as the “most vital group of paintings” of the 20th century. Inspired by Cézanne, Van Gogh and other modernist artists, they tried to interpret the Ontario landscape in light of the strategies of the international avant-garde. Based after 1914 in the purpose-built Studio Building for Canadian Art, the young artists embarked on what Lawren Harris called “an all-engrossing adventure”: travelling north into the anadian Shield and forging a style of painting appropriate to what they regarded as the unique features of Canada’s northern landscape. Rigorously researched and drawn from archival documents and letters, Defiant Spirits constitutes a “group biography,” reconstructing the men’s aspirations, frustrations and achievements. It details not only the lives of Tom Thomson and the members of the Group of Seven but also the political and social history of Canada

Download or read book Determining Your Legacy written by Larry Zachrich and published by . This book was released on 2017-04-26 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Determining Your Legacy" begins as a focus on how impressions are formed and the reality that they are typically fast, accurate, and long-lasting. However, the value of impressions vanishes when we realize that our perceptions of others are often biased by deceit. When our judgments are betrayed, we realize the value of genuine influences formed by long-term relationships, relatives, experienced colleagues, and spiritual leaders. Once we comprehend the power of impressions, we realize that we also communicate an impression on others. When we become aware of our influence on others around us, we may think more carefully about our actions and consider our impact on others. As we steer the development of our lasting impression, we create our legacy. "Determining Your Legacy" was written to illuminate the impact of impressions on our lives and to enhance our ability to perceive those influences. The power of impressions is revealed through real-life stories, and the significance of lasting impressions on life's decisions is clarified. Once we realize the power of genuine impressions, we may determine our lasting legacy for others as a contribution to those who follow us.
