Park Seo-Bo: Écriture
This is the definitive monograph on the "godfather" of Korean contemporary art, master painter Park Seo-Bo, also the founder of Korea's Dansaekhwa movement. Park Seo-Bo was born in 1931, in Yecheon, Gyeo-ngbuk, South Korea, as part of a generation that was deeply affected by the Korean War (1950-1953). While in Paris in 1961, he initially experimented with Western abstraction. Returning to Korea, he began exploring a more introspective methodology based on Taoist and Buddhist philosophies, as well as traditional Korean calligraphy. Park is best known for his "Écriture" series of paintings. Beginning in the late 1960s, this lifelong work encapsulates his deeply spiritual approach, which is inextricably linked to notions of time, space, and materiality. Park began his practice using recurrent pencil lines incised into a monochromatic freshly painted surface. He later developed this language by applying hanji (traditional Korean handmade mulberry paper), to the surface of his canvases. Along with very precise introductions of color, this transformed his practice while continuing his quest for achieving "emptiness" through a meticulous process of reduction. Beautifully showcased in this seminal book, Park's masterworks embody the core philosophy of contemplative mark-making. Evoking the natural landscapes and scenery of his motherland, Park's keen sensibility for colors, shapes, and textures traces the memories of his childhood through to his invaluable artistic and educational legacies for Korea.- Shop: buecher

Sinan Logie
Belgian celebrated artist Sinan Logie finalized his studies in 1998, from Brussels Free University, Victor Horta Faculty of Architecture. After having experimented different scales such as design, architecture, urban planning and writing in Belgium, he moved to Istanbul in 2011, to pursue his artistic and academic research. Since then his life and production are shifting between Istanbul and Brussels. Logie's paintings, sculptures, installations, and wall objects reflect his architectural background. He has developed a unique manufacturing method which consists of adding thick layers of oil, acryl, gypsum, sand, paraffin and inks to canvases and wooden surfaces which are at times flat, at others protruding from the wall. The added materials sometimes become unchecked (which gives rise to thick and very materialistic paintings), while at others it is contained. The constructive structure is strict. The layers are applied in a constant precipitation, which is composed as a choreography. Its colors, its depth and its compositions are ever-variable parameters, akin to the degree of hybridization. Logie describes the result of this process as "struggle suspended." In this way, the discourse that he develops about his serial work is not analytical but tell us about the story and method of their creation and explains the painterly effects he uses (metallic/ matt/shinny/glossy, the interplay with three-dimensional and sculptural scales) and his never-ending romance with materials.- Shop: buecher

Foucault in California: [A True Story—Wherein the Great French Philosopher Drops Acid in the Valley of Death] , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 228min
In The Lives of Michel Foucault, David Macey quotes the iconic French philosopher as speaking “nostalgically...of 'an unforgettable evening on LSD, in carefully prepared doses, in the desert night, with delicious music, [and] nice people'". This came to pass in 1975, when Foucault spent Memorial Day weekend in Southern California at the invitation of Simeon Wade - ostensibly to guest-lecture at the Claremont Graduate School where Wade was an assistant professor, but in truth to explore what he called the Valley of Death. Led by Wade and Wade's partner, Michael Stoneman, Foucault experimented with psychotropic drugs for the first time; by morning he was crying and proclaiming that he knew Truth. Foucault in California is Wade's firsthand account of that long weekend. Felicitous and often humorous prose vaults listeners headlong into the erudite and subversive circles of the Claremont intelligentsia: parties in Wade's bungalow, intensive dialogues between Foucault and his disciples at a Taoist utopia in the Angeles Forest (whose denizens call Foucault “Country Joe”); and, of course, the fabled synesthetic acid trip in Death Valley, set to the strains of Bach and Stockhausen. Part search for higher consciousness, part bacchanal, this book chronicles a young man's burgeoning friendship with one of the 20th century's greatest thinkers. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Making of Modern Britain , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1228min
In The Making of Modern Britain, Andrew Marr paints a fascinating portrait of life in Britain during the first half of the 20th century as the country recovered from the grand wreckage of the British Empire. Between the death of Queen Victoria and the end of the Second World War, the nation was shaken by war and peace. The two wars were the worst we had ever known and the episodes of peace among the most turbulent and surprising. As the political forum moved from Edwardian smoking rooms to an increasingly democratic Westminster, the people of Britain experimented with extreme ideas as they struggled to answer the question 'how should we live?' Socialism? Fascism? Feminism? Meanwhile, fads such as eugenics, vegetarianism and nudism were gripping the nation, and the popularity of the music hall soared. It was also a time that witnessed the birth of the media as we know it today and the beginnings of the welfare state. Beyond trenches, flappers and Spitfires, this is a story of strange cults and economic madness, of revolutionaries and heroic inventors, sexual experiments and raucous stage heroines. From organic food to drugs, nightclubs and celebrities to package holidays, crooked bankers to sleazy politicians, the echoes of today's Britain ring from almost every chapter. ungekürzt.

In a world ravaged by a nuclear holocaust, Vika Cannon knows there are no guarantees: No guarantees of safety, no guarantees that your neighbor is not actually a spy for the government, and no guarantees you'll be allowed to emigrate to a new life in China. New Amana is dying. Food and water are scarce, and people suffering from radiation-caused mutations - the Nukehead - are the new class of homeless. Vika has just one purpose: to produce healthy progeny using a Husband assigned by the Match Clinic. Unhealthy children are carted away to Asylums to be experimented on, just as Vika's little sister Ceres was, eight years ago. Parents incapable of producing healthy progeny are put to death in gas chambers. When she's assigned a Husband shortly after her twentieth birthday, Vika expects him to be complacent and obedient. But Shale Underwood has a secret. He is a member of the Radicals, the terrorist group intent on overthrowing the government. And Shale has information about Ceres. As she learns more about the Rads's plan, Vika finds herself drawn to Shale in ways she'd never imagined. When freedom calls in the way of a healthy pregnancy, will she betray her government and risk death for Shale and Ceres? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Christina Kelley.
