Independent, multivoiced, wicked, political, spiritual, sexual, achingly prosaic, and above all, serious. Plus funny. Which was exactly the point: to address the needs of the world - all parts of the globe - and wrap it up in one big blanket called Humanity. With Colors, Tibor Kalman shook out the contents of his brain and over the course of 6 years and 13 bilingual issues, he took on such topics as: food (and hunger), that finetuned organism called ecology, recreation, religion, AIDS, shopping, racism, royalty and assorted demi-gods, sports, travel, even heaven. For Kalman, the self-described "perverse optimist," Colors was about casting a net over all of humanity, warts and all. Its irreverence, its ability to raise hackles and continually question the status quo was not about knocking down people, but about raising the bar on tolerance and a humane way of living. It was, as he once said, about using graphic design as a medium "for telling the truth."
Stanley Spencer was the most intensely local of all greatartists, and his native village of Cookham was a central source ofinspiration. Yet he was far from parochial, and woven into DuncanRobinson's account of the artist's career is a just appreciation ofhis greatness and of his place in the wider context of Europeanart. This book celebrates both the range and the powerfulindividual quality of Spencer's achievements as a religiousvisionary, war artist, portrait painter and landscapist.

Book De*ion "Nineteen forty-six was agood time — perhaps the best time — in the twentieth century. Thewar was over and there was a terrific sense of coming back, ofrepossessing life. Rents were cheap, restaurants were cheap, and itseemed to me that happiness itself might be cheaply had." Broyard made his first bid for happiness by moving in with a youngpainter, the difficult and challenging Sheri Donatti — a protegeeof Anais Nin — who never wore underpants and who "embodied the newtrends in art, sex, and psychosis." Broyard tells their story; byturns comic and poignant, while describing along the way hismeetings with Caitlan and Dylan Thomas, Delmore Schwartz, DwightMacDonald, Maya Deren, William Gaddis, and other writers andartists just beginning their careers. He opens a bookstore onCornelia Street ("If it hadn't been for books we would have beenentirely at the mercy of sex. Books steadied us, they gave usgravity."). He goes to the New School and listens to Eric Fromm,Karen Horney and Meyer Shap

Following independence in 1947, Indias artists faced aparticular challenge: how to express the new nations distinctivecharacter while entering a global discourse focused on modernismsuniversal premises of experimentation and shared human values. Inthe absence of a dominant aesthetic, painters could turn where theywished and blend as they liked from Abstract Expressionism toTantric spiritualism; from Rajasthani painting to changes in Indiascomplex politics, religions, castes and daily life. This richlyillustrated, in-depth study, published to accompany the exhibitionorganized by the Peabody Essex Museum in the USA, surveys the threegenerations of artists responsible for these critical shifts in thedevelopment of Indias modernist art. It shows how theirachievements and the countrys unprecedented boom ushered Indiasmodern and contemporary art into a new era of globalism, a soaringinternational market, and an explosion in the media andtechnologies of art.
