An exciting narrative and visual history of the artist's studio, examining the myth and reality of the creative space from early times to today.0 The artist's workplace has always been an imaginary as well as an actual location, an idealized utopia as well as the domain of dirty, back-breaking work. Written descriptions, paintings, prints and even photographs of the artist's atelier distort as much as they document. This pioneering cultural history charts the myth and reality of the creative space from Ancient Greece to the present day.0 Tracing a history that extends far beyond the bohemian, romantic and renaissance cults of the artist, each chapter focuses on key developments of the studio space as seen in a variety of familiar and unfamiliar images. Mythical and divine makers, and some amateurs, are included, and so too are craftspeople - workers in metal and wood, potters, illuminators, weavers, embroiderers and architects to name a few. Each carefully chosen example is placed within a cultural and political context, with the aim of correcting the historical imbalance that has long overlooked the many artisans who collaborated with artists. Leading authority James Hall also extends the discussion to the artist's museum and the artist's house, as well plein air painting and the development of portable studios

This important book presents the work of the fascinating and singular artist Luigi Pericle (1916?2001). Pericle was a painter, illustrator and scholar, as well as a leading figure in the story of art in the second half of the twentieth century.00The artist initially found fame as an illustrator, gaining widespread renown in the 1950s as the inventor of the character Max the Marmot. But his intense, enigmatic and multi-layered paintings increasingly drew the attention of the art world, with works that reflect his personal, metaphysical take on post-war abstraction exhibited at numerous venues in Britain during the 1960s. Pericle then abruptly retreated from the art system, and for the rest of his life continued to paint, write and to study esoteric philosophy in the secluded house he shared with his wife Orsolina on Monte Verit? in the Ticino region of Switzerland. The artist?s work was dramatically rediscovered in 2016 when the contents of his former residence were revealed.00The process of restoring, cataloguing and researching his vast oeuvre is ongoing, and is overseen by Ascona?s Archivio Luigi Pericle, with which the exhibition has been organised.00Exhibition: Estorick Collection, London, UK (14.09. - 18.12.2022)

One woman's quest for revenge, a dangerous international conspiracy, and ruthless corporations intertwine in this page-turner from bestselling author James W. Hall. Despite Harper McDaniel's best efforts, the man responsible for the murder of her husband and son was exonerated thanks to some slick legal wrangling. This blatant injustice has only made Harper more determined than ever to bring down the culprit. Her ammunition? Incriminating information about his olive oil operations in Italy. But the clues that she follows are leading her into the depths of a corrupt plot that is more poisonous and far-reaching than she realizes. And more dangerous, too, because her enemy is prepared for her pursuit. Accompanied by her brother and mobster grandfather, Harper treks across Spain from Seville to a medieval castle, home to a successful olive farmer who is one of Harper's closest allies. Shadowed every step of the way by a ruthless assassin, Harper is moving ever deeper into enemy territory--and questioning whom she can really trust on this personal path of justice and revenge.

Harper McDaniel's husband was investigating some mysterious deaths at a cacao plantation on the Ivory Coast just before he and their infant son died in a fire in their Florida home. She's convinced he was targeted in a corporate conspiracy to silence him-- and she's determined to settle the score. Aided by her former mafioso grandfather and well-connected financier brother, Harper embarks on a global manhunt to expose a high-level cover-up inside a powerful chocolate conglomerate. In trying to cover their tracks, the conspirators made one fatal miscalculation: they didn't count on Harper McDaniel coming for them.
