New York: New York Review of Books:, 2013. First printing, Trade paperback, New, 108 pp. Cover artwork by: Katy Homans An "as new" copy. "An NYRB Classics Original It is a sunny summer Sunday in a remote Swiss village, and a christening is being celebrated at a lovely old farmhouse. One of the guests notes an anomaly in the fabric of the venerable edifice: a blackened post that has been carefully built into a trim new window frame. Thereby hangs a tale, one that, as the wise old grandfather who has lived all his life in the house proceeds to tell it, takes one chilling turn after another, while his audience listens in appalled silence. Featuring a cruelly overbearing lord of the manor and the oppressed villagers who must render him service, an irreverent young woman who will stop at nothing, a mysterious stranger with a red beard and a green hat, and, last but not least, the black spider, the tale is as riveting and appalling today as when Jeremias Gotthelf set it down more than a hundred years ago. The Black Spider can be seen as a parable of evil in the heart or of evil at large in society (Thomas Mann saw it as foretelling the advent of Nazism), or as a vision, anticipating H. P. Lovecraft, of cosmic horror. There's no question, in any case, that it is unforgettably creepy" First printing, Trade paperback, New. Katy Homans (illustrator).…

Hardcover. Condition: New. In shrinkwrap. Square Quarto. Hardcover. Bound in green cloth with green and orange stamped titles. No jacket, as issued. 70 pages : chiefly illustrations ; 33 cm. In his selection of 70 photographs by Lee Friedlander, acclaimed filmmaker Joel Coen focuses on Friedlander's beautifully strange sense of composition, in which images are off kilter and visually dense, bisected and carved by stop signs and utility poles, store windows and reflections, car doors and windshields or shadows and trees. "As a filmmaker, I liked the idea of creating a sequence that would highlight Lee's unusual approach to framing his splitting, splintering, repeating, fracturing and reassembling elements into new and impossible compositions," Coen writes. Featuring work spanning more than 60 years, the book includes selections from some of Friedlander's most celebrated series, including The American Monument, America by Car, The Little Screens and others, arranged to draw connections between form and composition rather than subject. In an afterword, renowned actor Frances McDormand describes the bond between the two artists: "they both capture and fill frames with sometimes simple and other times chaotically elaborate images that cause us all to wonder." Lee Friedlander (born 1934) began photographing in 1948. Among his more than 50 monographs are Signs, Sticks and Stones, Self-Portrait, Letters from the People, Cherry Blossom Time in Japan and At Work. His work was included in the influential 1967 exhibition New Documents at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, curated by John Szarkowski. Joel Coen (born 1954) is an American filmmaker who, with his younger brother Ethan, has directed films such as Raising Arizona, Barton Fink, Fargo, The Big Lebowski, True Grit, O Brother Where Art Thou?, Burn After Reading, A Serious Man and Hail Caesar.…

Condition: Sehr gut. 307 S. : zahlr. Ill., Kt. ; 30 cm Sehr gutes Exemplar mit geringfügigen Gebrauchsspuren. - Helden ist gleich in mehrfacher Hinsicht ein bahnbrechendes Buch. Anstatt lediglich einzelne Meisterwerke afrikanischer Künstler zu betrachten, ordnet die Autorin Alisa LaGamma sie in das breitere Kontinuum der Kunstgeschichte ein. Dabei lässt sie pauschale Vorurteile zum Wesen der afrikanischen Kunst hinter sich und eröffnet uns eine echte Wertschätzung für das künstlerische Erbe dieses Kontinents indem sie einen neuen Blick auf dessen ästhetische Ausdrucksformen wirft und die Skulpturen bis zu ihren ursprünglichen, menschlichen Modellen zurückverfolgt. So werden entscheidende, bislang unbekannte Verbindungen zwischen den künstlerischen Traditionen verschiedener Kulturen Afrikas aufgedeckt. Dieses Buch stellt Meisterwerke der afrikanischen Skulptur aus Privatsammlungen und Museen in aller Welt aus einer neuen, frischen Perspektive vor. Über 140 Skulpturen, entstanden zwischen dem 12. un frühen 20. Jahrhundert, zeigen ergänz durch Karten, Zeichnungen und Fotografie von Ausgrabungen und Zeremonien die religiösen und künstlerischen Bräuche, die den regionalen Kunststilen zugrunde liegen.
