Existovala vůbec někdy důležitější série hudebních alb než ta, která David Bowie vydal v letech 1970 až 1980? Jejich žánrová rozmanitost je ohromující, od mystického hard rocku a „mimozemského“ glamu po „plastický soul“ či art rock. Bowie vdechl rockové hudbě nový život a často ji posunul do oblastí, o kterých se mu dříve ani nesnilo. Jakkoli bylo zmíněné desetileté období velkolepé, stojí Bowieho kariéra za pozornost už od dob, kdy ve swingujícím Londýně teprve nesměle aspiroval na příští superhvězdu, až po album Blackstar. To lze považovat za nejcennější dárek na rozloučenou, jaký kdy hudebník dal světu. Bowieho odkaz však nezůstává zapsaný jen v dějinách hudby: byl skvělým hercem ve filmu i na jevišti, průkopníkem internetu, milovníkem umění i kulturním fenoménem. Tato kniha, čerpající z archivů časopisu Classic Rock, mapuje Bowieho jedinečnou cestu. Ponoříme se v ní do příběhů vzniku jeho klíčových alb od Hunky Dory a The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars přes desky, řazené do Berlínské trilogie či Letʼs Dance až po pozoruhodný comeback The Next Day a dechberoucí završení zpěvákovy tvorby v podobě Blackstar. Zaposlouchejte se tedy do „Ziggyho Stardusta“, pusťte si desku Low nebo některé z jeho skvělých přehlížených alb, jako ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Back in print in an expanded edition, this richly illustrated survey of Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s entire career is timed to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of their acclaimed Gates project  Christo (1935–2020) and Jeanne-Claude’s (1935–2009) landscape-scaled, outdoor projects were astounding temporary works of art in public settings that captured headlines across the globe. For sixteen days in February of 2005, their most celebrated installation, The Gates—7,500 saffron-colored fabric panels suspended from the tops of vinyl gates—stood along 23 miles of walkways in New York City’s Central Park.  This book celebrates the twentieth anniversary of The Gates with photographs of their installation alongside reproductions of the preparatory drawings that Christo created as he planned the project. An essay by Jonathan Fineberg surveys the career of Christo and Jeanne-Claude and their life journey through projects such as Surrounded Islands in Miami, The Umbrellas in Japan and California, Wrapped Reichstag in Berlin, and many more. This expanded edition also includes an epilogue that considers the artists’ works after The Gates—including Floating Piers in Italy and L’Arc de Triomphe, Wrapped in Paris—and a 2017 interview Fineberg conducted with Christo, one of the artist’s last.  This new edition is published on the occasion ...

Named to the Civil Eats "2025 Food and Farming Holiday Book Gift Guide"How we can meet the challenges of our age by moving away from the political and economic philosophies of both the left and right to a more equitable re-organization of society, economy, land and food production, driven by the local community rather than a central government. Today, society and government are still asking what our country can yield, and in what quantity. They do so because in a sense we are still living in conquest-based societies. Agrarian thinker Chris Smaje opens this book by drawing an arresting modern parallel to Viking raiding, trading and enslaving societies and the Ragnarok they faced then of dramatic climate change and societal collapse. So, to meet these modern crises, Chris asks us to look beyond the current discourse of capitalism versus chaos, and indeed the dualism of ‘state versus market’ and the ‘state with the market’, both of which has failed us. Instead, Chris explores a world where we live slower lives more immersed in local ecologies. Where our present Viking age has inflicted a thorough alienation from place and local livelihood, Chris proposes other models of collective organization, where land and ...
