Описание: As a younger generation discovered sewing and traditional quilting, they yearned for a less restrictive way to express their creativity in fabric. In this book, the author shares the stories and work of 80 renowned modern quilters, as well as the techniques and patterns that serve as the foundation of the craft.
Описание: Here is the bottom line: just as the eyes are the portals for vision, and just as the ears are the portals for hearing, proprioception, as a global term for the combination of all the internal senses, is the portal for consciousness. Human beings have two minds. One mind creates space, the other mind creates time. Unfortunately, these two cognitive processing networks don't know they have a twin-that is the great paradox of our existence as human beings, the irony of it all. We have two minds-not just two sets of behaviors, not just left-brain/right-brain, or top-brain/bottom-brain, and not just two theories, although I base my ideas on an evolving discipline called dual-process theory. I contend that we have a hardwired, no-getting-around-it, dual-cognition. Our dual minds did not come about because we have two brain hemispheres-I don't mean right-brain versus left-brain when I speak about our cognitive duality. I am referring to something new in the debate about consciousness. - The reason evolution created brains and nervous systems is so that animals could navigate from one location to another. Trees don't have nervous systems, brains, senses, and muscles, because they do not navigate-they are rooted to the earth.

Описание:
A two-volume publication on the mysterious object that inspired poetry, art and unlikely artistic collaborations
For nearly five decades a peculiar wooden object called the "Slant Step" was exchanged between artists from coast to coast, developing a cultlike following and inspiring poetry, art and unlikely collaborations. Artist William T. Wiley first came upon the original object at a salvage store in Northern California in 1965. Covered in worn green linoleum, it looked like a footstool; however, its sharp slanted riser mystified Wiley and Bruce Nauman, his student at the University of California, Davis. Wiley purchased the found object and gifted it to Nauman, who maintained possession over it until Richard Serra absconded with it from San Francisco to New York. In 1969, Sacramento artist Phil Weidman surveyed the first years of the "Slant Step" in an artist's book that featured contributions by Nauman, Wiley, William Allan, Richard C., Jack Edwards, Jack Fulton, Ray Johnson, Steve Jongeward, Stephen Kaltenbach, Robert Leach, Jack Ogden, Frank Owen, Ron Peetz, Lawrence Dean Phillips, Peter Saul, Dorothy Wiley and William Witherup.
On the occasion of its 50th anniversary, Weidman's influential Slant Step Book is again available in a two-volume set. This long-overdue republication features a facsimile of the 1969 artist's book and a companion catalog with new essays and visual responses by contemporary writers and artists such as Sarah Lehrer-Graiwer, Dan Nadel, Jacob Stewart-Halevy, Terry Berlier, Gordon Hall, Corin Hewitt, Aay Preston-Myint, Jessi Reaves, Mungo Thomson and Angela Willetts.
