Soft cover. Condición: Fair. Catherine Ahearn (b. 1949) is a bilingual Canadian writer of poetry, prose, and essays, amongst other artistic endeavours. She was the first poet laureate of Ottawa from 1982 to 19984. Thus Spoke Superman was her fourth collection of poetry, published in 1980 and is partly inspired by Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra, dealing with many of the themes which he treated in that work. As per the description on the back of Ahearn's work, "It is in updating and expanding, in poetic form, some of Nietzsche's theories as well as in bringing into play her personal mythology that Thus Spoke Superman succeeds in creating a work of art that is both individualistic and profoundly lyrical." This volume is in fair condition. There is much wear and discolouration to the covers and a small tear likely from a previous price sticker. A name and date that was written on the cover page in pen has been drawn over with black marker which is visible on the other side of the page. There is also an old price in pencil. Otherwise, the poems themselves are without blemish.

Softcover. Condición: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 360 Seiten/pp., illustrated throughout - The street as a stage or site of creative action has acquired its own special role in art history: think of Jean-Michel Basquiat, whose work stemmed directly from street culture, or Mark Jenkins irritating pedestrians with his subtle infiltration of human-like sculptures, or the participatory installations of Kader Attia. Each of the 30 artists contributing to this bilingual German-English volume has found ways to weave art strategies into the fabric of street culture. Street and Studio focuses on the street as a zone of creativity, and as a source of inspiration to young artists whose lives and art are marked by an urban and mobile lifestyle.
