The Language of Images

Author: W. J. Thomas Mitchell
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780226532158
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 307

Book Description
"A remarkably rich and provocative set of essays on the virtually infinite kinds of meanings generated by images in both the verbal and visual arts. Ranging from Michelangelo to Velazquez and Delacroix, from the art of the emblem book to the history of photography and film, The Language of Images offers at once new ways of thinking about the inexhaustibly complex relation between verbal and iconic representation."—James A. W. Heffernan, Dartmouth College

The Book with No Pictures

Author: B. J. Novak
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0803741715
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 49

Book Description
A #1 New York Times bestseller, this innovative and wildly funny read-aloud by award-winning humorist/actor B.J. Novak will turn any reader into a comedian—a perfect gift for any special occasion! You might think a book with no pictures seems boring and serious. Except . . . here’s how books work. Everything written on the page has to be said by the person reading it aloud. Even if the words say . . . BLORK. Or BLUURF. Even if the words are a preposterous song about eating ants for breakfast, or just a list of astonishingly goofy sounds like BLAGGITY BLAGGITY and GLIBBITY GLOBBITY. Cleverly irreverent and irresistibly silly, The Book with No Pictures is one that kids will beg to hear again and again. (And parents will be happy to oblige.)

Pages : 288

Book Description
A better world is within our grasp, let art show you the way. A collection of radically beautiful and provocative images from one of the world's most-followed and best-loved digital curators Stephen Ellcock. The Book of Change is designed to provoke reflection, revelation and action, an indispensable treasury of visual tools that will aid, promote and inspire personal and political transformations. This new collection of extraordinary images is structured as a journey beginning with mankind's origins. Our path is marked by words and images reflecting our talent both for creativity and conflict. Ultimately Stephen Ellcock leads the reader to the current, turbulent point in time. A time of global unrest, inequality and--yet--potential for change. Ellcock draws on both well-known and entirely unknown artists, Renaissance paintings, counter-cultural iconography, occult and esoteric imagery, documentary photography and traditional and contemporary art, craft and design from every continent and cultural tradition. This is an eye-opening, mind-blowing awakening to the vast shared potential and creative energy of mankind.
