Get the picture : a mind-bending journey among the inspired artists and obsessive art fiends who taught me how to see / by Bosker, Bianca,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."The New York Times bestselling author of Cork Dork takes readers on another fascinating, hilarious, and revelatory journey-this time burrowing deep inside the impassioned, secretive world of art and artists. An award-winning journalist obsessed with obsession, Bianca Bosker's existence was upended when she wandered into the art world-and couldn't look away. Intrigued by artists who hyperventilate around their favorite colors and art fiends who max out credit cards to show hunks of metal they think can change the world, Bosker grew fixated on understanding why art matters and how she-or any of us-could engage with it more deeply. In Get the Picture, Bosker throws herself into the nerve center of art and the people who live for it: gallerists, collectors, curators, and, of course, artists themselves-the kind who work multiple jobs to afford their studios while scrabbling to get eyes on their art. As she stretches canvases until her fingers blister, talks her way into A-list parties full of billionaire collectors, has her face sat on by a nearly-naked performance artist, and forces herself to stare at a single sculpture for hours on end while working as a museum security guard, she discovers not only the inner workings of the art-canonization machine but also a more expansive way of living. Probing everything from cave paintings to Instagram, and from the science of sight to the importance of beauty as it examines art's role in our culture, our economy, and our hearts, Get the Picture is a rollicking adventure that will change the way you see forever"--

Time surfers / by Sylvester, Kevin.;
Caleb Fisher is the right-hand to his time-surfer, scientist father, John. Together on their thick metallic ship, they travel at super speed into the past and rescue treasures that have otherwise been lost--priceless works of art from the torpedoed RMS Lusitania, a crown jewel threatened by a flood in 1216 CE England--all for the good of humanity and for the glory of the ruling Global Council. But there are rules for time surfers. Never bring back anything that could change the course of history. And never, under penalty of death, bring back another human being. John Fisher is haunted by the loss of his wife in a mysterious incident, and he is always looking for a way to go deeper into the past and stay longer. John forbids Caleb to come on one particularly dangerous mission--to save ancient scrolls from the burning Great Library of Alexandria. But Caleb sneaks on board and what happens in 48 BCE returns with the Fishers into the future and changes their lives forever.

Creative beaded jewelry : 33 exquisite designs inspired by the Arts of China, Japan, India and Tibet / by Schulz, Carolyn,author.;
Includes bibliographical references (page 77) and index.Inspired by the decorative arts, temple carvings and textiles of China, Japan, India and Tibet--Creative Beaded Jewelry celebrates the art of the East with stunning beaded jewelry in various shapes, sizes and materials. The designs in this book draw their inspiration from many different sources ranging from Japanese kimono fabrics to carved Chinese wall panels and lacquerwares to old Tibetan coins--all part of the ancient artistic heritage of Eastern cultures. Detailed instructions for 33 beautiful jewelry pieces are given here, including bracelets, necklaces, earrings and rings that you'll be proud to wear or to give to friends and loved ones as a treasured gift. Each chapter introduces a simple technique of stringing beads using inexpensive and easy-to-find materials: chain, beading wire, memory wire, stretch cord and cotton cord. The author then shows you how to create gorgeous jewelry pieces with that stringing technique using different kinds of Asian beads--from simple ceramic ones to semiprecious, lampwork glass and metal beads. Colorful bracelets embellished with Chinese floral and butterfly motifs, a gold-and-pearl lariat inspired by the fringe of an Indian carpet, and a stunning Shamballa bracelet are just a few of the artful pieces you will learn to make. The combinations are endless and this book has literally something for everyone--from novices to experienced beaders. Many of the projects can be completed in just a few minutes, and all of them are fun and inexpensive to create--but, you will never know that by looking at the fabulous results!
