An elegant reference guide to the meaning of plants in art and life. From early Egyptian reverence for the acacia and the lotus, to the Victorian language of flowers and the works of Vincent Van Gogh and Georgia O’Keeffe, we have long sought meaning in nature. Significance has often been ascribed to particular plants, referencing their uses as food or medicine, their associations with saints and heroes, or more abstract or aesthetic qualities like fortitude, beauty and strength. Weaving together botany, mythology, folklore, religious texts, and centuries of art and literature, this richly illustrated, elegant reference guide engages the cultural significance and underlying meanings of over fifty plants. Each entry is accompanied by a work of art or botanical illustration, bringing together the world of art and plants in an elegant and seamless fashion and deepening our understanding of how plants have been used by artists in the past and what they mean to us today. This is the ideal reference volume for the artistically inspired botanist as well as a pleasure to read and leaf through.

We are living in a time when the Earth is speaking to us . . . loudly. We are being asked to surrender and bow to a deeper current of wisdom that is far more powerful than our minds will ever know. Nature is having her say. The anxiety you feel in your body is asking you to breathe and listen. Will you honor the soft, supple language of the body? Will you come home to the wisdom that exists within your flesh—the vessel that communes with and is informed directly by nature? The next revolution will be a revolution that is led by mothers and the soils of the Earth. It will rise from and through the lands. Those connected to the one heart and the one pulse of life that breathes all of humanity will lead this revolution. It is the people who remember the divinity of resting in their mother’s womb and of the unconditional love of the mother who will stand up for the oppressed and those who deeply need to be touched by grace during these times. Motherhood is the groundwork. The root work. It is like tending to the soils of the Earth. Without ... Unknown localization key: "more"

“That is the archaeology I am unearthing: the specter of police violence and state control over the bodies of young Black and brown people all over the world.” –Kehinde WileyKehinde Wiley: An Archaeology of Silence features a new body of paintings and sculptures by American artist Kehinde Wiley confronting the legacies of colonialism through the visual language of the fallen figure. It expands on a subject the artist first explored in his 2008 series Down—a group of large-scale portraits of young Black men inspired by Wiley’s encounter with Hans Holbein the Younger’s The Dead Christ in the Tomb (1521–22) at the Kunstmuseum Basel. Holbein’s painting triggered an ongoing investigation into the iconography of death and sacrifice in Western art that Wiley traced across religious, mythological and historical subjects. An Archaeology of Silence extends these considerations to include men and women around the world whose senseless deaths, often unacknowledged or silenced, are transformed into a powerful elegy of global resistance against state-sanctioned violence. The resulting paintings of Black bodies struck down, wounded or dead, all referencing iconic historical paintings of slain heroes, martyrs or saints, offer a haunting meditation on the violence against Black and brown bodies through the lens of ...
