Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. New condition yellow boards, beige spine, and gold front cover and spine lettering contained in a new condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Author's Note; Introduction; Acknowledgments and Selected Titles By His Holiness The Dalai Lama. "Nearly every time you see him, he's laughing, or at least smiling. And he makes everyone else around him feel like smiling. He's the Dalai Lama, the spiritual and temporal leader of Tibet, a Nobel Prize winner, and an increasingly popular speaker and statesman. Why is he so popular? Even after spending only a few minutes in his presence you can't help feeling happier. If you aks him if he's happy, even though he's suffered the loss of his country, the Dalai Lama will give you an unconditional yes. What's more, he'll tell you that happiness is the purpose of life, and that "the very motion of our life is towards happiness." How to get there has always been the question. He's tried to answer it before but he's never had the help of a psychiatrist to get the message across in a context we can easily understand. Through conversations, stories, and meditations, the Dalai Lama shows us how to defeat day-to-day anxiety, insecurity, anger, and discouragement. Together with Dr. Cutler, he explores many facets of everyday life, including relationships, loss, and the pursuit of wealth, to illustrated how to ride through life's obstacles on a deep and abiding source of inner peace. Based on 2,500 years of Buddhist meditations mixed with a healthy dose of common sense, The Art of Happiness is a book that crosses the boundaries of traditions to help readers with difficulties common to all human beings." -- from the inner front jacket flap.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. On the western edge of Brooklyn, New York, lies Red Hook: a neighbourhood shaped by a long, layered history and constant transformation. Photographer Lisa Cutler discovered Red Hook by chance after taking a wrong turn out of a nearby subway station in 2017. Captivated by the area's collision of visual chaos and Victorian beauty, she returned over the next two years to document its former vitality and ongoing state of flux. From the foreword Beauty Thrives in Forgotten Places by Simon Bainbridge: To Cutler, it began as a place of artistic promise, a magic kingdom of colour, shape, texture, and geometry. It seemed like a place where time had stood still, but in fact was ever changing. Its contrasts became a history lesson, teaching her to recognize the veiled forces and complexities of her city. ARed Hook made me stop and look. It made me stop and see things I had never seen before.AE Red Hook was claimed by Dutch settlers in 1636 under the name Roode Hoek and grew from a rural peninsula into one of the busiest industrial ports in the world. However, the district fell into steep decline in the mid-20th century as shipping routes shifted and industry collapsed, leaving behind a landscape marked by abandonment and disinvestment. It became known for crime, poverty, and increased isolation following the construction of the Gowanus Expressway. In more recent years, Red Hook's post-industrial scenery has been transformed once again. Accelerating redevelopment and gentrification have introduced a complex tension between the area's industrial past, its resilient local community, and the forces reshaping its waterfront identity. Inspired by the greats of American photography-Lewis Baltz, Robert Adams, and Walker Evans-Cutler's work is guided by geometric simplicity, contemplative stillness, and honest authenticity. Through her lens, Cutler captures the neighbourhood with clarity, precision, and profound respect, using colour, geometry, and light to evoke the enduring spirit of places long overlooked. Though void of people, the photographs convey a palpable presence of the neighbourhood's inhabitants, with remnants offering subtle clues to the lives beyond the frame. This publication offers a portrait of Red Hook at a pivotal moment, suspended between erasure and renewal. It is both an artistic reflection on what has been lost and a tribute to what endures.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Der Stadtteil Red Hook in Brooklyn war einst eine lebendige Gemeinde und einer der verkehrsreichsten Häfen der Welt.

Fasziniert von Red Hooks visuellem Chaos sowie seiner viktorianischen Schönheit, kehrte sie zwei Jahre lang dorthin zurück, um Red Hooks frühere Vitalität und den anhaltenden Wandel zu dokumentieren und seine Schönheit abseits der traditionellen Ästhetik zu zeigen. Cutlers Serie 'Red Hook' wurde mit dem Prix de la Photographie Paris ausgezeichnet, gewann den Julia Margaret Cameron Award für Stadtansichten und wurde in Galerien auf der ganzen Welt gezeigt. 176 pp. Englisch.…
