Sinopsis

Mesa Threads Spin explores the evolution of Navajo weaving, an art form deeply intertwined with cultural preservation, economic necessity, and artistic innovation. The book examines how this centuries-old tradition adapted to the demands of the tourist trade, highlighting the ingenuity of Navajo weavers. Readers will discover how the introduction of sheep and wool by the Spanish irrevocably shaped Navajo weaving traditions, and how weaving served as a cornerstone of Navajo society, linking spirituality, social structure, and economic survival.

 
The book progresses by first establishing the historical context of Navajo weaving before analyzing specific designs tailored for tourist consumption. It delves into the roles of trading posts and government policies in shaping the market. Ultimately, this study illustrates how Navajo weaving, often seen as commercialized, truly represents a resourceful adaptation that preserves cultural identity while navigating economic challenges.

 
The final sections cover contemporary issues like copyright and fair trade, offering a balanced perspective on cultural commodification.

    With Nails - The Film Diaries of...

    The star of the cult classic Withnail and I offers “a refreshing combination of comedy, confession, and coruscation” in this memoir of the movie business (Kirkus Reviews).   Richard E. Grant’s acting career has included memorable roles in some of Hollywood’s most critically acclaimed films, including Robert Altman’s Gosford Park and Francis Ford Coppola’s Dracula. But he attributes his success to his first film role, starring as a flamboyantly pathetic Shakespearean in the underground hit Withnail and I. As Grant explains, “I had no notion that, almost without exception, every film offered since would be the result of playing an alcoholic out-of-work actor.”   In With Nails, Grant shares his long, maddening, and immensely rewarding journey through the world of film. From the hell of making Hudson Hawk to befriending Steve Martin on the set of L.A. Story; and from eating spaghetti with the Coppolas, to window-shopping with Sharon Stone, and working with and learning from the best actors and directors in the business, Grant’s unvarnished memoir “is a biting and wonderfully funny look at the movie business by an actor who is as clear-eyed and observant about himself as he is about the craziness surrounding him” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

    Published in 1911, Kandinsky's book compares the spiritual life of humanity to a pyramid -- the artist has a mission to lead others to the pinnacle with his work. The point of the pyramid is those few, great artists. It is a spiritual pyramid, advancing and ascending slowly even if it sometimes appears immobile. During decadent periods, the soul sinks to the bottom of the pyramid; humanity searches only for external success, ignoring spiritual forces. (Summary from Wikipedia)
