Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Art of the Woman explores the life of German-born Elisabet Ney, a flamboyant sculptor who transfixed the philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer and left the court of the half-mad Ludwig of Bavaria to put down new roots in Texas. Born in 1833, Ney gained notoriety in Europe by sculpting the busts of such figures as Ludwig II, Schopenhauer, Garibaldi, and Bismarck. In 1871 she abruptly emigrated to America and became something of a recluse until resuming her sculpting career two decades later. In Texas, she was known for stormy relationships with officials, patrons, and women’s organizations. Her works included sculptures of Sam Houston and Stephen F. Austin and are exhibited in the state and US capitols as well as the Smithsonian. Emily Fourmy Cutrer’s biography of Ney makes extensive use of primary sources and was the first to appraise both Ney’s legend and individual works of art. Cutrer argues that Ney was an accomplished sculptor coming out of a neglected German neoclassical tradition and that, whatever her failures and eccentricities, she was an important catalyst to cultural activity in Texas.

Book excerpt: The Art of Being a Woman is an eye opening discussion about the many topics modern day women face. As the title suggests, this book is about the daily practices and lifelong discoveries that become an "art form" distinct to each woman. The individual and her needs are emphasized, as opposed to a "one size fits all" approach. A multitude of women, all ages and ethnicities, were interviewed to get a broad perspective on a variety of issues relating to the female gender, such as health and beauty, relationships, cooking, and self-respect. This book is a practical, yet passionate, rendering of a combination of these factors that so many current publications try to isolate. Womanhood is about the culmination, not separation, of all of these aspects.

This book tells you everything you need to know, courtesy of the world's only major female PUA (pick-up artist), Kezia Noble! Unknown until a couple of years ago, Kezia was approached by the organisers to attend a PUA class meeting. She gave it to the other attendees straight, not caring if she offended anyone; the men took it on the chin and took her constructive criticisms on board. Within days and weeks they were trying out her suggested techniques and starting to become more successful with women. Kezia returned to the PUA classes and started to make a name for herself.

Download or read book The Art of A Woman written by K. S. Mateen and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Art of A Woman is more than just your average, ordinary, typical book on "How To". The Author based his findings on years of research which is relevant to his own personal experiences, as well as the examples that have been displayed & portrayed by society as a whole. After questioning numerous individuals, both men and women, it was clear that both sides were looking for a solution to the ongoing problem of, "too many women & not enough men". For men between the ages of 21-45, it would be conducive for them to, at some point in their life, read this manual. It would allow them to make better use of their intellect when it comes to relating to & socializing with women. The more open-minded one is, the better. This book is definitely not for the nay sayers. We, as men in this day & age can no longer view women in the same light as if we were living in the 60-90's. Its a new millennium, & with it we must be new men. With time there comes change as we know it, but for some inexplicable reason, we (men) are set in our pattern of thinking in reference to women in general from a relationship standpoint. Its serious, its funny, yet straight to the point. Throughout this manual, one may find a section or two, that sticks out & allows the reader to see himself for the very first time. This is not a book that will give you, the reader, an angle for trying to pick up women with slick talk & sly ways. For the most part, its the medicine for whats been ailing men for far too long... The sickness of not being able to commit. After reading this manual, your questions will be answered, and all solutions to your problems with women will be provided via the knowledge of finally knowing. As suggested, this is a reading that both men & women should take full advantage of. The Art of A Woman... Read it... Commit its contents to memory & practice it.

Download or read book The Art of Nigerian Women written by Chukwuemeka Bosah and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Art of Nigerian Women by Chukwuemeka Bosah is a tightly packaged tome--an astonishingly delightful companion to a meme that was broached in the author's A Celebration of Modern Nigerian Art: 101 Nigerian Artists, published in 2010. In the current volume, Bosah marshals the intellectual capacity of some of the best scholars and curatorial impresarios in the field to contextualize the diversity of works of the artists featured. This work is a feat that must be acknowledged by students of Nigerian art for a number of reasons. First, this book contributes significantly to our knowledge of Nigerian art by its lasered focus on Nigerian women. Second, the author brings to the fore, in the process, a smorgasbord of creative enactments and analyses in an assortment of media by our womenfolk. Third, while Nigeria now boasts of a budding tribe of scholars on the visual arts, this is the first time, to my knowledge, that a book of this type has been published. And this brings us to the fourth reason: this book is the irrefutable demonstration of the maxim about lions having their own historians to obviate distortions that hunters would bring to the history of the hunt. This is a pioneering work, one that deserves a prominent place on the shelves of corporate, institutional, college, and personal libraries. Bosah deserves our admiration for the courage and resources ploughed into this work.

In this hands-on guide to applying the universal laws of deliberate manifestation, Christy Whitman, Master Taw of Attraction coach and mother of two, shows readers that it is not only possible for women to have it all in every aspect of our lives, but to settle for anything less is to deprive ourselves of the true joy, exhilaration and fulfillment of becoming all that we were born to be.

Download or read book A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women written by Siri Hustvedt and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling, radical, “richly explored” (The New York Times Book Review), and “insightful” (Vanity Fair) collection of essays on art, feminism, neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy from prize-winning novelist Siri Hustvedt, the acclaimed author of The Blazing World and What I Loved. In a trilogy of works brought together in a single volume, Siri Hustvedt demonstrates the striking range and depth of her knowledge in both the humanities and the sciences. Armed with passionate curiosity, a sense of humor, and insights from many disciplines she repeatedly upends received ideas and cultural truisms. “A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women” (which provided the title of this book) examines particular artworks but also human perception itself, including the biases that influence how we judge art, literature, and the world. Picasso, de Kooning, Louise Bourgeois, Anselm Kiefer, Susan Sontag, Robert Mapplethorpe, and Karl Ove Knausgaard all come under Hustvedt’s intense scrutiny. “The Delusions of Certainty” exposes how the age-old, unresolved mind-body problem has shaped and often distorted and confused contemporary thought in neuroscience, psychiatry, genetics, artificial intelligence, and evolutionary psychology. “What Are We? Lectures on the Human Condition” includes a powerful reading of Kierkegaard, a trenchant analysis of suicide, and penetrating reflections on the mysteries of hysteria, synesthesia, memory and space, and the philosophical dilemmas of fiction. A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women is an “erudite” (Booklist), “wide-ranging, irreverent, and absorbing meditation on thinking, knowing, and being” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).

Download or read book The Intelligent Woman s Guide to Art written by Robin Kahn and published by MIS Dias Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Intelligent Woman's Guide to Art is a new book built on the pages of an old one, a smart, witty take on art history collaged over the text and images of a 1950s introduction to fine art for "club women." Conceptual artist Robin Kahn has bound that palimpsest as a board-book for beginners looking for a fresh and informed entry into contemporary art through the work of a woman artist and curator, and her work reflects changes in both the art world and its audience. A section on recommendations that once directed readers to Mondrian, Jacques-Louis David and Degas now suggests they check out, among others listed by category, "Mannerist: Lorna Simpson"; "Screamer: Yoko Ono;" and "Dildo Strapper: Lynda Benglis." The Intelligent Woman's Guide to Art is a comic alternative to art history, an art-historically minded piece of art, and a beautifully crafted, colored and reproduced work in itself.
