Book Pomodori a Grappolo

Download or read book Pomodori a Grappolo written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pomodori a grappolo is a set of three interconnected books by photographer and bookmaker John Gossage. Each book gathers images made in Northern Italy and Sardinia between 2009 and 2011, and each includes a short text by Marlene Klein. The written pieces--two stories and one epilogue--have been created in response to Gossage's pictures, and reflect the 30 years that Klein has spent living and working in Venice. An unexpected approach runs through all the details of the books, from the way elements repeat, or don't, to the choice of materials and color. Since these three books are each a different trim size but include photos that are reproduced at the exact same size, the collective project functions as a study of the way that ink on paper can inform perception. The resulting objects are classic Gossage--clever, unique and engrossing. A limited edition of the books, held together with magnets in a "disorderly" way, further explores these concepts.--Amazon.

Book Encounters with the Real in Contemporary Italian Literature and Cinema

Download or read book Encounters with the Real in Contemporary Italian Literature and Cinema written by Loredana Di Martino and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2017-01-06 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the Italian contribution to the current global phenomenon of a “return to reality” by examining the country’s rich cultural production in literature and cinema. The focus is particularly on works from the period spanning the Nineties to the present day which offer alternatives to notions of reality as manufactured by the collusion between the neo-liberal state and the media. The book also discusses Italy’s relationship with its own cultural past by investigating how Italian authors deal with the return of the specter of Neorealism as it haunts the modern artistic imagination in this new epoch of crisis. Furthermore, the volume engages in dialogue with previous works of criticism on contemporary Italian realism, while going beyond them in devoting equal attention to cinema and literature. The resulting interactions will aid the reader in understanding how the critical arts respond to the triumph of hyperrealism in the current era of the virtual spectacle as they seek new ways to promote cognitive transformations and foster ethical interventions.

Book Toxic Matters

    Book Details:
  • Author : Monica Seger
  • Publisher : University of Virginia Press
  • Release : 2022-06-10
  • ISBN : 0813948371
  • Pages : 321 pages

Download or read book Toxic Matters written by Monica Seger and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2022-06-10 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Toxic Matters, Monica Seger considers two Italian environmental disasters: an isolated factory explosion in Seveso, just north of Milan, in 1976 and the ongoing daily toxic emissions from the Ilva steelworks in the Apulian city of Taranto. Both have exposed residents to high concentrations of the persistent organic pollutant known as dioxin. Although different in terms of geography and temporality, Seveso and Taranto are deeply united by this nearly imperceptible substance, and by the representational complexities it poses. They are also united by creative narrative expressions, in literary, cinematic, and other forms, that push back against dominant contexts and representations perpetuated by state and industrial actors. Seger traces a dialogue between Seveso and Taranto, exploring an interplay between bodies, soil, industrial emissions, and the wealth of dynamic particulate matter that passes in between. At the same time, she emphasizes the crucial function of narrative expression for making sense of this modern-day reality and for shifting existing power dynamics as exposed communities exercise their voices. While Toxic Matters, is grounded in Italian cases and texts, it looks outward to the pressing questions of toxicity, embodiment, and storytelling faced by communities worldwide.

Download or read book The Park written by Kohei Yoshiyuki and published by Hatje Cantz. This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Captured in three Tokyo parks in the early seventies, Kohei Yoshiyuki's The Park series features some intriguing photographic works of art. Shot at night using flash and infrared film, the photographs show hetero- and homosexuals gathering for furtive sexual encounters in the Shinjuku, Yoyogi, and Aoyama parks. These amorous scenes, however, are unpleasantly crowded; even before Yoshiyuki approached them with his camera, the couples had become objects of desire for voyeurs. The sixty-two photographs are presented here in duotone quality with an interview with the artist."--BOOK JACKET.

In questo luogo Marco de Fotis ripercorre quarant'anni di storia e di storie: la sua infanzia felice, la guerra, la villa distrutta dalle bombe e poi ricostruita vent'anni dopo. Grandi passioni, complotti, vendette e colpi di scena coinvolgono i vari personaggi. La crescita e lo sviluppo dell' impero aziendale dei De Fotis attraverso le peripezie e le competizioni. Marco costretto a non abbassare mai la guardia nei confronti del suo eterno nemico Leonardo Meyer. La presenza importante e discreta del tutore Karl. E le donne della sua vita: Maria la madre, Giulia il primo amore, Leila che lo guida nella scoperta del sesso, Lauren sua moglie, le zie, e poi gli intrighi e gli amori delle cugine Anna e Lisa. Nel salotto rosso Marco si abbandona ad un percorso introspettivo che gli permetterà di ritrovare se stesso e la propria felicità.
