Frida Kahlo at Home explores the influence of Mexican culture and tradition, La Casa Azul and other places Frida Kahlo called home, on her life and work.

Barbezat Suzanne: Frida Kahlo at Home

Frida Kahlo at Home

The first collection of critical writings on the work of the influential contemporary French artist Pierre Huyghe. Influenced by wide-ranging ideas from land art and institutional critique to experimental cinematic practices and narrative film, the groundbreaking work of Pierre Huyghe since the early 1990s has arguably, even indelibly, altered the landscape of contemporary art. The French artist works at the beguiling intersection of fiction and reality, representation and performance, spectacle and memory, chance and agency, living organisms and technological entities. As formats and discourses of cinema (be it Godard or Lumet) and architecture, (invented or existing) holidays and games, (puppet) theatre and opera, fairy tales and (travel) literature, museology and computer technology, life sciences and popular culture (like Manga comics or Disney movies) are renegotiated in Huyghe’s variegated projects, the methods and modalities of producing, exposing, and experiencing art, in turn, come under both critical scrutiny and allegorical speculation. The essays and interviews by preeminent scholars, critics, and curators, including Benjamin Buchloh, David Joselit, and Molly Nesbit, compiled in this volume trace the trajectory of Huyghe’s practice over the last three decades, from the artist’s earlier engagements with the built environment, the temporalities of cinema and television, the customs of social communities, and the volatile property relations in global media culture, to his most recent and much-discussed ecological redefinitions of the objects and sites of art. At the same time these texts and conversations ponder and gauge the far-reaching implications of Huyghe’s many seminal artworks for the history, theory, and ontology of art in the early twenty-first century.

<div>Unpack the powerful visual symbols artists have used throughout history.&nbsp; &nbsp; From a single flower to a carefully placed skull, works of art across history are filled with symbols that carry powerful meanings. The Symbols of Art reveals how artists use these symbols to communicate ideas without relying on words.&nbsp; &nbsp; Why is there a lily in that religious painting? Why does a still life include an hourglass, a mirror or a piece of fruit? In some cases, these symbols would have been immediately understood by contemporary viewers but now need decoding for a modern audience. In other instances, symbolism is more deliberately elusive, inviting viewers to look closer and think deeper.&nbsp; &nbsp; This richly illustrated visual reference includes:&nbsp;<ul><li>Over 100 key symbols drawn from art history&nbsp;</li><li>Symbols from the natural world, the manmade world, the supernatural, and colours and shapes&nbsp;</li><li>Famous artworks used as case studies to show symbolism in context&nbsp;</li><li>How meanings change across cultures, movements and centuries&nbsp;</li><li>An easy-to-navigate, fully indexed structure designed for quick consultation as well as browsing&nbsp;</li></ul> Bringing together examples from across periods, cultures and artistic movements, art historian Susie Hodge explains how symbolic meanings can shift depending on time, place and intention, revealing layers of interpretation that radically deepen our understanding of artworks.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Clearly organised and expertly written, The Symbols of Art is both an authoritative reference and an inviting guide for curious readers.&nbsp; &nbsp; Whether you’re visiting a gallery, studying art history or simply want to see artworks with fresh eyes, this book gives you the tools to decode visual meaning and experience art more deeply.&nbsp;</div>

Decoding the Hidden Meanings of Art

The Symbols of Art

Wissenschafts- und Technikgeschichte

Taking a global perspective to the computer age reveals how work, gender, and emotions have shaped its history. Since the 1960s, workplaces have been key sites for the introduction of computers, transforming organizations, future imaginaries, and perceptions of self and others. Yet, contrary to dominant narratives, this process was neither smooth nor universally welcomed. Workers and organizations responded in diverse ways, forming distinct emotional communities amid profound change. Across eight chapters, case studies from Europe, Asia, and Latin America offer new insights into the global computer age and invite reflection on our present relationship with technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and ongoing workplace transformations.

Workplaces are key sites where computers were first introduced, transforming organizations, senses of self, and visions of the future. In contrast to narratives today, this process was not always smooth or welcome. Workers and organizations responded in different ways to the changes, forming their own emotional communities and senses of connection in light of sweeping changes. The contributors to this volume explore the global history of the computer age from the perspectives of work, gender, and emotions. The eight case studies span Europe, Asia, and Latin America to shed light on the global computer age in the last few decades as well as trends we are witnessing today, such as artificial intelligence.

'This book is a pleasure and a treasure' TAYARI JONES, Women's Prize-winning author of An American Marriage and Kin THE DEAD ARE RELENTLESS GOSSIPS, OR AT LEAST THESE DEAD ARE...A year after her father's death, Aubrey learns she has inherited a share of a farm on the sun-streaked plains of Tennessee. Seeking a way to erase a mounting pile of debt, she travels South to meet a family she barely knows. Watching her arrival are four ghosts: Aubrey's ancestors, and the keepers of the farm's secrets. As Aubrey gets to know her living relatives, the story of the land unfolds - her great-grandfather who bought it, one of the first Black landowners in the community, the four children set to inherit it, their bitter rivalries, and a tragedy that echoes through the decades... With the sale of the farm looming, the ghosts face exile, and Aubrey must decide how much of her future she is willing to sacrifice to the claims of the past. Dazzling and expansive, The Great Wherever is a multigenerational portrait of the American South, exploring land and legacy, race and generational wealth, and the sharp fragments of the past - how they spark and shine against the surface of our ordinary lives.

People's History

'In the best traditions of "history from below", Raquel Varela and Roberto della Santa restore two hundred years of class struggle in Portugal to where it belongs'&nbsp;Andy Durgan, historian and author of Volunteers for the Revolution

'A remarkable achievement - sweeping in scope, beautifully written, and politically alive on every page'&nbsp;Yassamine Mather,&nbsp;Middle East Centre, University of Oxford

'Forceful, vigorous, and passionate'&nbsp;Ricardo Antunes, Professor of Sociology at University of Campinas

A People's History of Portugal reconstructs the last two hundred years of class struggle in Portugal. Raquel Varela and Roberto della Santa examine the material conditions of its people - examining the real causes of the revolutionary waves and counter-revolutionary backlash.

Starting in the early nineteenth century, the theme of colonialism and its antithesis runs through the narrative, as working-class life was closely entwined with Portuguese colonial exploitation. Despite relatively slow industrial development, Portuguese people spearheaded a surprisingly vigorous radical culture of dissent, eventually sparking a social and political revolution in 1974. More recently, Portugal's inclusion in the European Union has put its people in a neoliberal stranglehold that stifles democracy to this day. Are the working people of Portugal able to carry the memory of the revolutionary past into its future? This is a history of, and for, the people.

Raquel Varela is a professor at New University of Lisbon, and Honorary Fellow at the International Institute for Social History. She is the author of A People's History of the Portuguese Revolution, A People's History of Europe, and the graphic novel Utopia, with Robson Villalba.

Roberto della Santa is an Integrated Researcher at the Open University of Lisbon, and Scientific Co-Coordinator of the OCVT/UNL. He is the co-author of The 25th of April Began in Africa, Working and Living in the 21st Century, and Global Labour Studies (in Portuguese).

Die Seele Mexikos

Tequila

A woman's desperate flight from an Apache raid unfolds into a sweeping tale of the Mexico-US border wars. Now I Surrender is the epic, darkly funny and action-packed story of the legendary Apache warrior Geronimo and how the American West was 'won'. 'Álvaro Enrigue's one of the best we have, and he's not done pushing against conventions' NEW YORK TIMES 'An impassioned anti-imperialist lament, a gripping alt-western' TLS In the contested borderlands between Mexico and the United States, a Mexican woman flees into the desert after a devastating raid on her dead husband's ranch. Meanwhile, a lieutenant colonel of the fledgling Republic, sent in pursuit of cattle rustlers, will soon discover he's on the trail of a more dramatic abduction. Decades later, with political ambitions on the line, the American and Mexican militaries try to manoeuvre Geronimo, the most legendary of Apache warriors, into surrender. And in our own day, a family travels through the region in search of a truer version of the past. Now I Surrender is Álvaro Enrigue's most expansive and impassioned novel yet. Part epic, part alt-Western, it weaves past and present, myth and history, into a searing elegy for a way of life that was an incarnation of true liberty - that still sparks in us the thrill of almost unimaginable freedom. Translated by Natasha Wimmer 'Enrigue is an erudite, charismatic raconteur' THE ATLANTIC 'A moving and complex love letter to Mexico... a slice of bloody American history with a timely edge' LOS ANGELES TIMES
