Hardcover. Zustand: Used - Very Good. Foreword by Pari Stave The French Riviera has been a fabled resort formore than a century. As an enclave for the rich and famous, as well as a scenictourist spot, it represents all that is beautiful and amusing. But for many of thetwentieth century's finest painters, sculptors, photographers, and architects it hasbeen much more: a place of potent myth and extraordinary creativity. Picasso, Matisse, Beckmann, Brancusi, Lartigue, Le Corbusier, and Eileen Gray, among manyothers, were inspired to create some of their greatest work on the Cote d'Azur.Thisstudy examines the impact of modernity and the artistic imagination on an idylliclandscape. Touching on the issues of pleasure and escape, work and leisure, anddesire and ecstasy, Making Paradise offers a fresh look at the Cote d'Azur and itshistorical significance as a site for modernist innovation from 1890 to the present.Beginning with the neoimpressionists, moving to the Fauves, and ending with suchcontemporary artists as David Hockney and Faith Ringgold, the book examines thesplendid light and terrain of the southeastern coast of France and the region'sinfluence on the artists who worked and played there.

Paperback or Softback. Zustand: New. Endehors (�d.1896). Book.

sehr guter Zustand, 224 S., kart. Dieses Buch, das 1895 in Frankreich zum ersten Mal publiziert wurde, kann als einfacher Augenzeugenbericht einer Epoche oder auch als kurzer autobiographischer Roman gelesen werden. Mit etwas mehr Bedacht jedoch, lassen sich darin einige Perlen, einige Ideen erkennen, die dazumals wie heute eher selten scheinen. In einer Zeit, in welcher der Anarchismus oft idealistische, manchmal fast schon religiös anmutende Charakterzüge annahm, hebt sich Zo d'Axa, der Autor und Akteur dieser Geschichte, als Ketzer der anarchistischen Bewegung hervor, der sich hartnäckig weigert, sich auf den Glauben" an irgendeine abgeschlossene Theorie, an irgendeine rettende Zukunft zu stützen, um seine Revolte nur für die Gegenwart, für das Unmittelbare, für die « stolze Freude des sozialen Kampfes » zu leben. So schrieb er in der von ihm gegründeten Pariser Wochenzeitschrift l'Endehors" [der Ausserhalb-Stehende"]: « Weder einer Partei noch einer Gruppe zugehörig. Ausserhalb. Gehen wir als Individuen, ohne den rettenden und blind machenden Glauben. Unser Ekel vor der Gesellschaft bringt keine unabänderlichen Überzeugungen hervor. Wir kämpfen aus Freude am Kampf und ohne den Traum einer besseren Zukunft zu träumen. Was geht uns das Morgen an, das erst in einigen Jahrhunderten sein wird? Was gehen uns die Grossneffen an! AUSSERHALB aller Gesetze, aller Regeln und aller Theorien sogar der anarchistischen , vom jetzigen Augenblick an, sofort, wollen wir uns unseren Gefühlen des Mitleids und des Zorns, unserer Wut und unseren Instinkten hingeben mit dem Stolz, wir selbst zu sein » (Text: Anarchistische Bibliothek) Gramm 600.…
