Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renowned ceramic artist Karen Karnes has created some of the most iconic pottery of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. The body of work she has produced in her more than sixty years in the studio is remarkable for its depth, personal voice, and consistent innovation. Many of her pieces defy category, invoking body and landscape, pottery and sculpture, male and female, hand and eye. Equally compelling are Karnes's experiences in some of the most significant cultural settings of her generation: from the worker-owned cooperative housing of her childhood, to Brooklyn College under modernist Serge Chermayeff, to North Carolina's avant-garde Black Mountain College, to the Gate Hill Cooperative in Stony Point, New York, which Karnes helped establish as an experiment in integrating art, life, family, and community. This book, designed to accompany an exhibit of Karnes's works organized by Peter Held, curator of ceramics for the Arizona State University Art Museum's Ceramic Research Center, offers a comprehensive look at the life and work of Karnes. Edited by highly regarded studio potter Mark Shapiro, it combines essays by leading critics and scholars with color reproductions of more than sixty of her works, providing new perspectives for understanding the achievements of this extraordinary artist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is my story of my memories, thoughts, and interpretations that I made from my experiences starting at the beginning of my age of awareness. I grew up on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota where I faced living in two different cultures to the time I joined the U.S. Army. My story is not about the accumulation of wealth or being famous or being some savior. It is about a simple dream. My story starts from the time I remember reaching the age of awareness to the present. I do not claim to be a writer, so my story may not be a well-planned or polished literary work that meets all the high standards of writing. The story is about being on a path out of poverty. I was raised by my grandparents from a baby to the time I joined the U.S. Army. For some reason my mother left me to be raised by her parents. They were poor people, seasonal laborers, who lived with a strong belief in their God. We lived in a two-room shack with tarpaper siding that had not inside toilet, running water or electricity. That was our home. They were always short of money to buy necessities and usually faced hunger. However they were a good couple and had a faith to believe in God. However I was fortunate to get a good education and had the opportunity to join the army for a career. I experienced new horizons that exposed me to new learning’s that tempered my attitude. I wish to share my experiences and thoughts from traveling along a path chosen with especially the Lakota youth and the non-Lakota youth what have written in this book. Pilamaya—Thank you
Download or read book Path of the Chosen written by J. Y. Cheung and published by Camelot Press. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named Finalist as Best Fantasy Fiction, Best Multicultural Fiction and Best Cover Design by Next Generation Indie Book Awards 2009, authored by a young writer at the age of 14-19, the novel is the first installment of an epic series. Although the story is set initially in a world that is familiar to the fantasy genre with the elements of Celtic mythology and Arthurian legends, it thoughtfully lays down a vast universe that encompasses Heaven and Earth for the first installment and its sequels, and brings forth a massive, multi-ethnic cast which includes many endearing characters who carry rich cultural backgrounds that will generate strong echoes from readers of different ages and ethnicity. The story perhaps is the first to depict the convergence of the western and eastern civilizations in a fantasy setting in the dimensions of culture, philosophy, mythology and theology. The story is deeply provocative in politics and humanity through the shadows of factual events in human history; nonetheless, it is a good read with complex plot lines, suspenseful outcomes, well-developed characters with diverse backgrounds and epic events with cinematic visualization.

This book was released on 2023-10-20 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Child's Journey from Foster Care to Adoption My life tells the parable of a child who finds the ultimate adoption through being fostered. At the tender age of five, I was taken from the custody of my natural parents and turned over as a ward of the state. After years of searching for my identity, I was able to find it through my beautiful foster mother Jimmie. She showed me the way to an adoption that supersedes natural logic. Many that travel the road of foster care are lost and suffer from identity crisis. Unfortunately, some give up in their youth and commit suicide. Some remain lost and follow the same path as their biological parents. Others struggle until they come to a place of reckoning and die to their old life and morph into a beautiful butterfly. This is the journey to freedom I took in foster care. Unbeknownst to me, I traveled the same path as my biological mother. I came to the same fork in the road as she and had to decide whether to let the old man die or keep him alive. The decision was not easy, but it was doable. There were so many distractions and enticing worldly privileges that had to be denounced. My biological mother ran from her opportunity of new roots, but I decided to stick to mine. My new roots provided lessons and instructions that helped me become the improved woman and mother I am today. I have been adopted into a family larger than life itself, and I would have it no other way!
