Описание: On August 17th, 1960, on stage at the Indra Club in Hamburg, a band from Liverpool makes its debut. Only the day before, whilst waiting for the ferry boat that would take them to Germany, the band members had chosen to change their name: from that moment on, they would be THE BEATLES. 'Thank You Boys' is a tribute to the Fab 4 and their history, a journey through their career in chronological order using the musical production in both LP and 45 rpm records as narrative thread. From here you can branch out a series of topics that show particular passion for collecting: from magazines to pins, from games to scrapbooks, memorabilia up to the celebration of the great albums' reissues that are able to demonstrate without any doubt that the Beatles' musical heritage and culture is still very much alive.

Описание: This book features When This You See..., a 1996-99 series of thirty-one embroidered samplers by contemporary American artist Elaine Reichek. Traditionally, samplers framed truisms, homilies, and lessons within decorative patterns and motifs. Reichek replaces these familiar sayings with witty combinations of quotations from mythology, literature, science, art history, and popular culture. Most of the quotations relate to the arts of weaving, knitting, or embroidery. The astonishing results operate on myriad levels: as social critique, as commentary on the relations between the sexes, as a challenge to the traditional definitions of art itself. Punctuating the sequence of samplers are embroideries inspired by works of modernism or contemporary art that resonate with Reichek's themes; with her renditions of these works, Reichek challenges the austerity of high art with humor and sophistication.
