Sinopse

"Kinetic Sculptures" explores the dynamic world of art that moves, examining how artists integrate motion into their work. It delves into the history, the artistic techniques, and the underlying engineering principles behind these moving masterpieces. Kinetic art challenges traditional notions of sculpture, embracing change and temporality as key elements. One intriguing aspect is how artists use simple mechanics or complex motorized systems to achieve movement, sometimes even harnessing natural forces like wind. The book uniquely combines historical analysis, technical explanations, and philosophical reflections to provide a comprehensive view. It begins by introducing core concepts and historical precedents, then explores early pioneers, various types of motion, and the contemporary landscape of kinetic art.

 
By examining the works of pioneering kinetic artists, the book demonstrates how motion enhances not only the aesthetic appeal of sculpture but also its conceptual depth. This transformation results in interactive art that engages viewers in unpredictable ways, reflecting a modern sensibility. The book's approach involves drawing on historical documents, artist interviews, and technical schematics, making it valuable for art enthusiasts, design students, engineers, and anyone keen on the intersection of art and technology. Case studies of public art installations further show the impact of kinetic sculptures on urban environments, highlighting the blend of art, design, and mechanical principles.

 
Through its progression, "Kinetic Sculptures" illuminates the innovative spirit driving artists to push the boundaries of art and technology.

    No art form is as widely discussed—or as readily available—as music. With the click of just a few buttons, modern humans can decide what they think of the brand-new Beyoncé just as quickly as they can form opinions on Brahms or the Beatles or Bob Dylan. But things weren't always this way. In this brisk, breakneck history, award-winning musician and broadcaster Andrew Ford dives into the constant evolutions and reinventions that have led to the popularity and accessibility of modern music. Ford explores: 
     
     
     
    ● Why playing history's earliest example of notated music—clay tablets from 1400 BCE Syria—doesn't produce a consistent sound 
     
     
     
    ● How colonization and the slave trade led to one region in West Africa having an unparalleled influence on world music 
     
     
     
    ● How clerical and royal support allowed early composers to invent the symphony 
     
     
     
    ● What leads humans to make music in the first place—and why music plays such a massive role in our culture. 
     
     
     
    The Shortest History of Music takes us on a lively tour through several thousands of years of music history, tracing our relationship with this essential art and allowing us to freshly appreciate and understand music today.

    As riveting as a World War II thriller, The Forger's Spell is the true story of Johannes Vermeer and the small-time Dutch painter who dared to impersonate him centuries later. For seven years a no-account painter named Han van Meegeren managed to pass off his paintings as those of one of the most beloved and admired artists who ever lived. As Edward Dolnick reveals, his true genius lay in psychological manipulation, and he came within inches of fooling the world. Instead, he landed in an Amsterdam court on trial for his life. The Forger's Spell is the gripping, true tale of this almost perfect crime.

    This inspirational guide explains how a botanical sketchbook can take many forms and hold different meanings. It shows how a sketchbook can be used as a workbook to study plants through drawing and painting in a variety of media. It includes examples of preliminary work for finished pieces, experiments in colour and exploration of plant anatomy, and shows how these studies can be made away from the pressure of creating the perfect, polished piece of final botanical artwork. It goes on to feature sketchbooks created for their own sake as a curated space for an artist to draw and record plants over a period of time, or a particular place.
