Without realizing it, our Cora does something that starts a centuries-old curse that will sweep the land if she gets captured by the evil Minerva. At this point, her dream world becomes a nightmare. Luckily, hot guy, fantasyland Noctorno is there to save her from the clutches of the grotesque vickrants sent by Minerva to capture her.

Download or read book The Fantastical World of Croatian Na ve Art written by Vladimir Crnković and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fantastical World of Croatian Naïve Art is part of the Museum's mission of presenting the very best examples of world art to our visitors and celebrates the beginning of a new millennium. This exhibition is an ideal way to look back at the end of a century, which saw the collapse of the Soviet Union, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the breakup of communist Europe. Two events in particular inspired this exhibition. The first was Croatia's declaration of independence in 1991, which allowed me to return to my country and to meet with museum professionals, government officials, and the naïve artists themselves. The second was the beginning of a new millennium and the opportunity to bring the two countries I love closer together and to present this extraordinary tradition to a larger audience. Croatian naïve art was a perfect choice, as these paintings vividly explore cultural memories. While these paintings were created by artists often removed from the larger art world, it is perhaps surprising that so many of them are anything but insular. While rooted in Croatian rural life, many are clearly fascinated by and want to be connected to Europe and America. The Croatian naïve artists have played a critical role in how Croatia as a nation has been and continues to be imagined, for those living in and outside the country. These paintings can also be admired independently of cultural issues. Croatian naïve art has repeatedly been recognized by curators and scholars as some of the most imaginative and technically accomplished naïve or folk art in the world. Much of it counters the designation "naïve," as it is quite sophisticated. That label simply means that these paintings have been created by largely self-taught artists and that they often take as their point of inspiration life in the fields and villages. - Michael Milkovich, Director, pages 8-10.

Book excerpt: This luminous picture book tells the fascinating true story of artist Nek Chand and how his secret art project—hidden away in a jungle—became one of India’s most treasured wonders, second only to the Taj Mahal. In the bustle of the busy streets of Chandigarh, India, Nek Chand saw something no one else did. Where others saw rocks and stones, Nek saw the boyhood village he missed so dearly. Where others saw broken plates and glass, Nek saw laughing men. And where others saw trash, Nek saw beauty. Nek Chand’s incredible rock garden, built from stone and scraps and concrete, began as a way for him to express his long-felt grief at having to leave his boyhood village due to the violence caused by the partition of India. What began as a secret and personal (not to mention initially illegal) project became so much more, not only to Nek but to all of India.

Download or read book The Fantastical Feats of Finn MacCoul written by Norah Montgomerie and published by Birlinn Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of mystical folk tales about the Celtic hero Finn MacCoul is magical and bloodthirsty compendium full of humour, love and heroism. The legend of Finn exists in several cultures, but most notably in Scotland and Ireland, where he and the Fian, his band of loyal followers, are still important cultural figures. Many place names that grace the Celtic lands have their basis in these tales. Kyle Rhea, for example, between the Isle of Skye and the mainland is so called because of the terrible fate that befell one of the Fian while trying to save his wife - these warriors valued honour above all else. Justice was dispensed decisively to evil-doers and members of the Fian alike. Finn himself was more of a king than the kings he often met, for he alone was the arbiter of all conflicts. His was a life of constant risk combined with a simple belief in the power of good over evil. Finn travelled and fought wherever he was most needed. His dealings with the Lochlanners (Scandinavians) give us a stirring insight into a time where men risked their lives in pursuit of something more than mere wealth. This fabulous and evoking collection of heroic tales conjures a time and place where giants and magic were commonplace and danger was everywhere, where kings ruled over kingdoms, not countries.Companion to the best selling Folk Tales of Scotland. Only collection available of the Fenian cycle of stories. Stunningly illustrated by Paul Rumsey.
