Sinopse

Painter Exiles examines the profound intersection of art, politics, and personal freedom through the biographies of painters banished for their controversial creations. The book explores how societies weaponize art, turning canvases into grounds for banishment. It highlights instances where artistic expression, deemed threatening to prevailing ideologies, resulted in exile, a severe consequence impacting both the artist and society.

 
Did you know that artistic censorship and exile have roots stretching from ancient regimes to modern authoritarian states? The book uniquely focuses on painters, filling a gap in scholarship that often overlooks this group, while also exploring freedom of expression and social justice themes.

 
The book unfolds in three sections, beginning by introducing artistic exile and its forms, and then examining the sociopolitical dynamics triggering this exile, and, finally, exploring the impact of exile on the artists' work and lives. It delves into how governments and social groups define acceptable artistic expression, considering themes like religion, sexuality, and political dissent.

 
The book provides a framework for understanding contemporary issues related to artistic censorship, analyzing current debates about controversial art and the role of artists in challenging social and political norms.

Live Dead - The Grateful Dead Live Recordings and the Ideology of Liveness - cover

Live Dead - The Grateful Dead...

The Grateful Dead were one of the most successful live acts of the rock era. Performing more than 2,300 shows between 1965 and 1995, the Grateful Dead's reputation as a "live band" was—and continues to be—sustained by thousands of live concert recordings from every era of the group's long and colorful career. In Live Dead, musicologist John Brackett examines how live recordings—from the group's official releases to fan-produced tapes, bootlegs to "Betty Boards," and Dick's Picks to From the Vault—have shaped the general history and popular mythology of the Grateful Dead for more than fifty years. Drawing on a diverse array of materials and documents contained in the Grateful Dead Archive, Live Dead details how live recordings became meaningful among the band and their fans not only as sonic souvenirs of past musical performances but also as expressions of assorted ideals, including notions of "liveness," authenticity, and the power of recorded sound.
