Описание:
The first edition of Sound Art Revisited (published as Sound Art: Beyond Music, Between Categories) served as groundbreaking work toward defining this emerging field, and this fully updated volume significantly expands the story to include current research since the book's initial release. Viewed through a lens of music and art histories rather than philosophy or theory, it covers dozens of artists and works not found in any other book on the subject.
Alan Licht, one of the country's leading annalists and practitioners of sonic experimentation, traces the history of this form of art, locating sound art's roots in the spatialized church music of the 16th century, the boundary-pushing work of early 20th-century art movements Italian Futurism and Dada, the pioneering efforts of the American composer John Cage and musique concr te innovator Pierre Schaeffer, as well as the technological developments of radio, sound recording, and the telephone. From there, Sound Art Revisited highlights parallels between early sound art and Land art, the role of sound in Conceptual art, the sound sculpture of Jean Tinguely and Harry Bertoia, the rise of sound art exhibitions and galleries, sound art's relationship to sound studies, and finally looks at the critical cross-pollination that has led to some of the most important and challenging art with and about sound being produced today, including that of Christian Marclay, Haroon Mirza, Susan Philipsz, C leste Boursier-Mougenot, and Janet Cardiff, among many others.
From the New York Times bestselling author of Blood and Honor and The Last Gangster--"one of the most respected crime reporters in the country" (60 Minutes)--comes the sure to be headline-making inside story of the Gotti and Gambino families, told from the unique viewpoint of notorious mob hit-man John Alite, a close associate of Junior Gotti who later testified against him.
In Gotti's Rules, George Anastasia, a prize-winning reporter who spent over thirty years covering crime, offers a shocking and very rare glimpse into the Gotti family, witnessed up-close from former family insider John Alite, John Gotti Jr.'s longtime friend and protector. Until now, no one has given up the kind of personal details about the Gottis--including the legendary "Gotti Rules" of leadership--that Anastasia exposes here. Drawing on extensive FBI files and other documentation, his own knowledge, and exclusive interviews with insiders and experts, including mob-enforcer-turned-government-witness Alite, Anastasia pokes holes in the Gotti legend, demystifying this notorious family and its lucrative and often deadly machinations.
Anastasia offers never-before-heard information about the murders, drug dealing, and extortion that propelled John J. Gotti to the top of the Gambino crime family and the treachery and deceit that allowed John A. "Junior" Gotti to follow in his father's footsteps. Told from street level and through the eyes of a wiseguy who saw it all firsthand, the result is a riveting look at a family whose hubris, violence, passion, and greed fueled a bloody rise and devastating fall that is still reverberating through the American underworld today.
Gotti's Rules includes 8 pages of black-and-white photographs.
