"An intriguing and unusual collection of biographies in art, Female Gazes is a popular introduction to the lives and work of some remarkable women artists from the Renaissance to the present. Vivid reproductions and incisive commentary accompany the engaging life stories of a diverse group of women from Canada, the United States and Europe. Accomplished artists are featured from various stylistic periods and from a range of communities, those whose names are less familiar as well as artists recognizable from the past and present. Despite social constraints, these and countless other women chose to forge creative lives as visual artists. An elegantly produced collection, Female Gazes acknowledges that challenges and triumphs of women artists." - cover text.

Condición: Wie neu. 1. Auflage. 193 Seiten; mit zahlreichen Abbildungen versehen. Das Buch ist in exzellentem, sauberen Zustand. -----Inhalt. In the Assyrian, Greco-Roman and Byzantine empires, as well as in pre-Islamic Iran, veiling and seclusion were marks of prestige and symbols of status. The veil was a sign of respectability but also of a lifestyle that did not require the performance of manual labor. Its absence was a sign of poverty and prostitution but also of the performance of movement, in the streets and on the fields. It is the practice of veiling that makes women's absence omnipresent and turns the veil into cause and symbol of political, social and religious controversy. While the politics of the veil can be divided into two main reactions, against or for the veil, we must refrain from doing the same by instead exploring the differences within these reactions, releasing the veil from any certain meaning, be it religious, sexual, social or political. Writing about the veil involves the necessity of encountering something radically strange. To be sure, each language has its own system of thought which conditions the thinkable. We cannot detach ourselves from the decisions our language has already made for us and which dictate us self-evident assumptions and proscriptions. What we are dealing with here is a radical import of strangeness into our language. ISBN: 9783211992890 Due to new EU packaging regulations, we are currently unable to ship to many EU countries.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Abby Faria returns from an extended vacation/work holiday in BC to discover that her friend, Maria is having marital problems, problems that are affecting her children as well. As Abby resumes her job as a bike courier, it becomes clear that Maria's troubles are bigger than she first presented and they are soon compounded with the disappearance of her son. She turns to Abby for help. As usual, as Abby tries to piece together the clues, and to help keep Maria's fish shop running, she makes new friends who help out. Alex, the woman who took over the Community Centre Bike work program for youth in Abby's absence, becomes a close friend as they work together. Handsome Dave, a fellow bicycle and coffee enthusiast, and an RCMP officer on loan to the Toronto police Force, becomes an unlikely ally as well, in the hunt for Thomas, Maria's son. As she continues to work on the case, Abby finds time to go for two or three thrilling rides through the city, develop a relationship with Dave, enjoy some excellent meals in Little Italy and Kensington Market, and learn some little known facts about pedophiles. But, the longer time passes, the more desperate the situation becomes. Ultimately Abby ends up trapped in Alex's house in Little Italy, in danger and frustrated at being unable to help Maria. This leads to an unexpected twist, a hidden room, the rescue of young Thomas, and the tragic death of a new friend, all of which bring relief, and grief, to Abby's community.…
