Product Description

Imagine a night when you can ride your bike right up the stairs to your bed. Imagine a night when your toy train rumbles on its tracks out of your room and roars back in, full sized, ready for you to hop on for a nighttime adventure. Imagine a night when a farmer plays a lullaby on his fiddle, and his field of sunflowers starts to dip and sway to the rhythm. Imagine a night when ordinary objects magically become extraordinary…a night when it is possible to believe the impossible.

With the charm of an Escher drawing and the richness of a Chris Van Allsburg painting, renowned Canadian actor Rob Gonsalves depicts that tasty time linking sleep and wakefulness, making a spectacular, visual exploration of imagination and possibility that will encourage both children and adults to reckon past the boundaries of everyday life, and see the possibilities beyond.

Product Description
Absorbing Roman poet Ovid’s tales of transformation in Metamorphoses and adding his own dash of art-past figuration and contemporary pop culture, Mark Ryden broaches new terrain with The Tree Show. “Arcadian Gothic” might hint at the nature of this new work, and fans of Ryden will find familiar preoccupations in these new paintings, drawings and sculptures–made since his first solo show in 1998–transposed to new pastures. By no means reluctant to freight his work with layers of reference that range from Renaissance landscape and Neoclassical portrait painting to occultism and literature, in his newest works Ryden combines the arcane with pop-cultural images as ground from which to make his carefully executed leaps into fantasy. Ryden’s series includes depictions of oak trees consuming children, floating tree stumps with “seeing” eyes, imaginary wood nymphs and mythological characters who personify Nature herself. Ryden paints his characters with a masterful, pottery glow reminiscent of Ingres and renders his trees with a care that evokes Audubon’s botanical illustration. Several of his paintings are presented in elaborately carved frames that project their narratives beyond the canvas. The Tree Show offers reproductions of these paintings and sculptures alongside the fruits of Ryden’s research on the tree as myth–drawing from the Buddha’s Bodhi Tree to Adam and Eve, the Sephiroth of the Kabbalah and matters of ecological science. As such, this volume constitutes an enticing dossier on Ryden’s encyclopedic exploration of the theme and reproduces in its entirety this series centered around the arboreal world.
Mark Ryden was born in Medford, Oregon, and received a BFA in 1987 from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. He currently lives and works in Los Angeles.

Product Description
The Assassination of Experience by Painting-Monory is the first in the Revisions series, a new collection of books presenting writings on the fine arts by well-known writers and philosophers. This first title in the series provides an English translation of Jean-Franois Lyotard’s L’assassinat de L’experience par la peinture-Monory, formerly published in French in 1984. The translation by Lyotard’s writings on the work of the painter Jacques Monory and the accompanying essays by the series’ editor, the art historian Sarah Wilson, serves to both introduce the work of this actor to an English-speaking audience and provide a past and critical contextualization of Lyotard’s commitment to writing about art.
