Summary

Forgotten Sculptors explores the untold stories of talented sculptors from the 19th and 20th centuries who, despite their artistic merit, have been historically overlooked. The book delves into the complex reasons behind their marginalization, showing how artistic success hinges on more than just talent. It highlights the impact of social forces, shifting artistic movements, and personal circumstances in shaping an artist's reputation. Discover how some sculptors pushed boundaries and innovated techniques, enriching our understanding of art, yet remain largely unknown. This biography examines how artistic recognition is influenced by historical context, social networks, and individual agency. Through detailed case studies, the book unveils each sculptor's training, key works, and critical reception. Starting with an introduction to artistic marginalization, it progresses through individual stories, and concludes with broader reflections on artistic fame. By focusing on these "forgotten sculptors," the book challenges traditional art history narratives and promotes a more inclusive appreciation of diverse artistic expression.

    On a whim, armchair-atheist Richard Kelly Kemick joins the 100-plus cast of The Canadian Badlands Passion Play, North America's largest production of its kind and one of the main tourist attractions in Alberta. By the time closing night is over, Kemick has a story to tell. From the controversial choice of casting to the bizarre life in rehearsal, this glorious behind-the-scenes look at one of Canada's strangest theatrical spectacles also confronts the role of religion in contemporary life and the void left by its absence for non-believers. 
    "Kemick's book is that delicious cross between Waiting for Guffman and The Studhorse Man, a rousing personal comedy that dances between the sweat of art and the glue of experience. Nothing like it exists in non-fiction, but don't read it for that reason. Read it because it sticks to your fingers and you can't shake it off." — Dave Bidini 
    "Well-observed and poignant, this is a fascinating look into a largely unknown world." — Michael Coren 
    "Richard Kemick spends a summer in Alberta's Bible Belt where it may be easier to find God than a vegetarian meal. There, he confronts age-old questions about belief with near-miraculous freshness, honesty, and humour. A deeply personal investigation of the blurred border between faith and imagination." — Marcello Di Cintio

    In Do You Remember? Celebrating Fifty Years of Earth, Wind & Fire, Trenton Bailey traces the humble beginning of Maurice White, his development as a musician, and his formation of Earth, Wind & Fire, a band that became a global phenomenon during the 1970s. By the early 1980s, the music industry was changing, and White had grown weary after working constantly for more than a decade. He decided to put the band on hiatus for more than three years. The band made a comeback in 1987, but White's health crisis soon forced them to tour without him. During the twenty-first century, the band has received numerous accolades and lifetime achievement and hall of fame awards. The band remains relevant today, collaborating with younger artists and maintaining their classic sound.
    
    Earth, Wind & Fire stood apart from other soul bands with their philosophical lyrics and extravagant visual art, including album covers, concerts, and music videos, much of which is studied in this audiobook—which uses new AI narrative technology. The lyrics of hit songs are examined alongside an analysis of the band's chart success. Earth, Wind & Fire has produced twenty-one studio albums and several compilation albums. Each album is analyzed for content and quality. Earth, Wind & Fire is also known for using ancient Egyptian symbols, and Bailey thoroughly details those symbols and Maurice White's fascination with Egyptology. After enduring many personnel changes, Earth, Wind & Fire continues to perform around the world and captivate diverse audiences.
