Sinopse

Disney Villains Facts explores the captivating world of Disney's most iconic antagonists, examining their origins, designs, and enduring cultural impact. This exploration reveals that the creation of these characters is rooted in both artistic innovation and the reflection of societal anxieties. For instance, the visual design of villains often draws from specific historical and artistic movements, while their motivations can embody complex themes related to power and morality.

 
The book dissects classic villains like Maleficent and Cruella de Vil, tracing their development from initial concept sketches to their final animated forms. It argues that compelling Disney villains are not simply evil, but complex characters shaped by cultural contexts and artistic influences.

 
Through archival materials, concept art, and scholarly analyses, Disney Villains Facts progresses from foundational principles of character archetypes to detailed examinations of individual villains, connecting their creation to broader themes of identity, social commentary, and representation.

Concrete Toronto - A Guide to...

Michael McClelland, Graeme Stewart

Toronto is a concrete city. From international landmarks to civic buildings to cultural institutions to metropolitan infrastructure and the single-family home, reminders of the era of 'brutalist' architecture surround Torontonians. But for how long? As architectural fashion has shifted to the glass-and-steel neomodernism of today, these concrete structures have been increasingly ignored - and in some cases, demolished.
   
Concrete Toronto takes readers on a guided tour of Toronto's concrete architecture. Editors Michael McClelland and Graeme Stewart have assembled a diverse group of industry experts - architects, university faculty, local practitioners, city planners, historians and journalists - to examine the unique and important qualities and the past and future of Toronto's concrete buildings in interviews, articles, archival photos, drawings and case studies.
   
Appealing to both the average reader and the enthusiast, Concrete Toronto provides a refreshing look not only at the neglected buildings, but also at the trends that produced them and the impact and consequences that resulted from their construction.
