Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global urbanization promises better services, stronger economies, and more connections; it also carries risks and unforeseeable consequences. To deepen our understanding of this complex process and its importance for global sustainability, we need to build interdisciplinary knowledge around a systems approach. Urban Planet takes an integrative look at our urban environment, bringing together scholars from a diverse range of disciplines: from sociology and political science to evolutionary biology, geography, economics and engineering. It includes the perspectives of often neglected voices: architects, journalists, artists and activists. The book provides a much needed cross-scale perspective, connecting challenges and solutions on a local scale with drivers and policy frameworks on a regional and global scale. The authors argue that to overcome the major challenges we are facing, we must embark on a large-scale reinvention of how we live together, grounded in inclusiveness and sustainability. This title is also available Open Access.

Download or read book Banksy Completed written by Carol Diehl and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2021-10-26 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's more to Banksy than the painting on the wall: the first in-depth investigation into the mysteries of the world's most famous living artist. Banksy is the world's most famous living artist, yet no one knows who he is. For more than twenty years, his wryly political and darkly humorous spray paintings have appeared mysteriously on urban walls around the globe, generating headlines and controversy. Art critics disdain him, but the public (and the art market) love him. With this generously illustrated book, artist and critic Carol Diehl is the first author to probe the depths of the Banksy mystery. Through her exploration of his paintings, installations, writings, and Academy Award-nominated film, Exit through the Gift Shop, Diehl proves unequivocally that there's more to Banksy than the painting on the wall. Seeing Banksy as the ultimate provocateur, Diehl investigates the dramas that unfold after his works are discovered, with all of their social, economic, and political implications. She reveals how this trickster rattles the system, whether during his month-long 2013 self-styled New York "residency" or his notorious Dismaland of 2015, a full-scale dystopian "family theme park unsuitable for children" dedicated to the failure of capitalism. Banksy's work, Diehl shows, is a synthesis of conceptual art, social commentary, and political protest, played out not in museums but where it can have the most effect--on the street, in the real world. The questions Banksy raises about the uses of public and private property, the role of the global corporatocracy, the never-ending wars, and the gap between artworks as luxury goods and as vehicles of social expression, have never been more relevant.

Download or read book Street Art written by Lonely Planet and published by Lonely Planet. This book was released on 2017-04-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insider's guide to discovering the world's best urban art. From amazing wall murals to Banksy's stencils and Invader's mosaics, we showcase 140 creative hotspots across 42 cities and tell you how to find them, as well as introduce pioneering artists and interview those who shaped the movement. Street art is now present in almost every city, town and village in the world, from Aachen to Zwolle. Its true audience is measured in the billions. And given that the first record of homo sapiens painting on walls is thought to date back around 40,000 years, it's surprising that street art has taken so long to flourish. Today, the proliferation of legal walls and organised festivals around the world makes it possible to encounter thought-provoking, transformative art in the most unexpected of places. This visual guide to the world of street art takes in the scene in over 40 cities and includes interviews with some of the most prolific and well-known street artists, including Blek le Rat, FAILE and Faith47. And with hundreds of locations plotted and a special focus on 15 of the world's most incredible street art festivals, this guide will help you discover artworks hidden in plain sight around the world.

Download or read book The Little Praince written by Oliver Wurm and published by Oliver Wurm I Medienverlag. This book was released on 2023-08-04 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About this book. On April 6, 1943, the book The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry was published for the first time in New York. Since then, it has inspired and touched people from all over the world. It has been translated into over 500 languages and dialects and printed in a total print run of well over 200 million copies. On his 80th birthday, we asked ourselves: Are the core messages from 1943 still relevant in 2023? Would the geog-rapher still recommend Earth as his next travel destination? And if so, how would the Little Prince move around the Earth today? What would his morning routine look like? Would he be on Instagram and Twitter? Would he go to a Fridays For Future-demo? What podcast would he listen to? What speech would he give at the UN General As-sembly? And, of course, also important: Which soccer club would his Little Prince's heart beat for? On November 30, 2022, the US startup OpenAI made the artificial intelligence ChatGPT" available to the public. The name stands for Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer. The chatbot is based on a machine learning model that understands human input and responds in a natural-sounding way. We took the opportunity to ask the great intelligence about the Little Prince - 23 questions, fitting for the year 2023. The bot's answers: profound, surprising - and sometimes wonderfully crazy. Enjoy The little PrAInce, Oliver Wurm

Download or read book earth written by Peter Kennard and published by Tate. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains no words: instead it tells its story in the universal language of photomontage, long the favoured medium of radical artists. The author is one such, whose work has consistently questioned power structures and injustice, from his anti-nuclear works of the 1980s to his powerful works in response to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. This photo-essay in seven chapters, combining new works, made together with Tarek Salhany, with iconic images from throughout the author's 40-year career. It makes a powerful statement about the impending eco-crisis, the arms race and the injustices of the power structures dominating today's world.

Download or read book Street Art in the Middle East written by Sabrina de Turk and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 2011 Arab Spring street art has been a vehicle for political discourse in the Middle East, and has generated much discussion in both the popular media and academia. Yet, this conversation has generalised street art and identified it as a singular form with identical styles and objectives throughout the region. Street art's purpose is, however, defined by the socio-cultural circumstances of its production. Middle Eastern artists thus adopt distinctive methods in creating their individual work and responding to their individual environments. Here, in this new book, Sabrina De Turk employs rigorous visual analysis to explore the diversity of Middle Eastern street art and uses case studies of countries as varied as Egypt, Tunisia, Lebanon, Palestine, Bahrain and Oman to illustrate how geographic specifics impact upon its function and aesthetic. Her book will be of significant interest to scholars specialising in art from the Middle East and North Africa and those who bring an interdisciplinary perspective to Middle East studies.
