Sarah Sze: Timelapse

Sarah Sze: Timelapse

GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM PUBLICATIONS,U.S.
2023

Documenting Sze’s monumental Guggenheim installation—a reflection on the continual reshaping of experience by digital and material saturation Over three decades, Sarah Sze has developed a remarkable practice that boldly traverses sculpture, video, installation, painting, printmaking, drawing and sound. Her work, sometimes compared to scientific models, is distinguished by her intricate constructions using myriad ordinary objects and images that evidence the imprints of contemporary life. Sze’s Guggenheim exhibition, which centers on Timekeeper (2016)—one of the first in the artist's eponymous series of multimedia installations—is a reflection on how our experience of time and place is continuously reshaped in a digitally and materially saturated world. The show represents the New York premiere of Timekeeper. Published after the show’s opening, this book is a rich, immersive document of the singular relationship Sze cultivated with the building over the five years she spent developing this site-specific presentation. The majority of the volume is given over to expansive installation photographs, as well as sketches by the artist. An illustrated essay by curator Kyung An probes the depths of the exhibition’s thread of serendipitous encounters, while contributions by Hilton Als and Molly Nesbit offer explorations of the origins and resonances of Sze’s practice of timekeeping. Sarah Sze (born 1969) received a BA from Yale University in Connecticut in 1991 and an MFA from New York’s School of Visual Arts in 1997. Her previous monographs include Timekeeper (2018), Night into Day (2021) and Fallen Sky (2022). Born in Boston, Sze presently lives and works in New York.

Break Every Bond: Sarah Helen Whitman in Providence: Literary Essays and Selected Poems

Break Every Bond: Sarah Helen Whitman in Providence: Literary Essays and Selected Poems

Sarah Helen Whitman

Yogh Thorns Books, the Poet's Press
2019
nidottu
Sarah Helen Whitman (1803-1878), poet and critic, is best known for her brief engagement to Edgar Allan Poe in 1848, and for her role as Poe's posthumous defender in her 1860 book, Edgar Poe and His Critics. She is seldom treated as more than an incidental person in Poe biography, and no books of her own poetry were reprinted after 1916. As critic, she was a ground-breaking American defender of Poe, Shelley, Byron, Goethe, Alcott, and Emerson, yet none of her literary essays other than her defense of Poe have ever appeared in book form. She and her friend Margaret Fuller are credited with being the first American women literary critics.This volume presents Whitman's literary essays with more than 500 annotations and notes, tracing her literary sources and allusions, and revealing the remarkable breadth of her readings in literature, philosophy, history, and science. Brett Rutherford's biographical essay is rich in revelations about Whitman's time and place, her family history, and her muted career as poet, essayist, and den mother to artists and writers. Exploding the standard view of her as the secluded "literary widow," we can now perceive her as a literary radical pushing against a conservative milieu; a suffragist and abolitionist who dabbled in s ances; and a devotee of the New England Transcendentalists and the German Idealists who inspired them.The complete text of Edgar Poe and His Critics presented here, includes the opposing texts by Rufus Griswold, whose libels provoked her landmark defense of Poe's writing and character. This annotated version identifies all the contemporary press reviews and books Whitman read and critiqued, making it indispensible for students of Edgar Allan Poe.The selected poems in this volume include the hyper-Romantic traversal of rival mythologies in "Hours of Life," her most ambitious work; her poems to and about Edgar Allan Poe; sensitive and atmospheric nature portrayals; a defense of the then-reviled art of the drama; a love poem from Proserpine to Pluto; an occasional poem about Rhode Island penned in the after-shadow of the Dorr Rebellion; and translations from French and German poets, most notably the most famous of all European ghost ballads, B rger's "Leonora." Whitman's allusions and unattributed quotations from other poets are all annotated, making this book a must for scholars and students.

Sarah and the Number Knights

Sarah and the Number Knights

Howard Schrager

Lemontree Press
2020
pokkari
While writing a manual to accompany King Maximo and the Number Knights, the idea came to me to create a sequel featuring the unsung hero of the story, Sarah, who answered THE QUESTION on which the story hinges, "Which is the greatest of all the numbers?"The indications for using the story to teach mathematical concepts through hands-on activities are found within the story itself. As such, it is a textbook in story form. It is my hope that this effort will demonstrate the efficacy of this form of teaching as a means of deepening the learning experience beyond that obtained through more traditional academic instruction The story is set in a meadow. The lawfulness of nature mirrors the lawfulness of mathematics, and vice versa. In learning through the use of imaginative, purposeful activity something is stimulated which leads to the cultivation and development of capacities we should hope to find in a dynamic human being.The story links the study of mathematics to the natural sciences, and provides an active grounding in geometry. Work with the Number Knights touches on areas largely overlooked in most educational circles, including visualization, discernment, spatial awareness, body geography, hand/eye coordination, and the artistic sense in general. The work is primarily experiential, and as such it is strengthening and deepening in its effect.Finally, the story portrays children working in a spirit of cooperation, mediating competitive tendencies with more social ones. The children come to realize that each has a contribution to make to the group as a whole, and that, like the Number Knights, a group is strongest when it recognizes the unique value of each of its members.

Sarah Mathloma: Innovative Educator, Prisoner of War, Survivor

Sarah Mathloma: Innovative Educator, Prisoner of War, Survivor

Sally Brown

Gorman House Publishing
2020
nidottu
Sarah Mathloma England, the mother of two small children, was living in the Philippines in 1920 when she was abandoned by her husband, who suffered from undiagnosed schizophrenia. Left behind in Manila with a young son and daughter, Sarah Mathloma found work as a teacher. She soon rose to become the first woman principal of a Filipino high school in a country where free public education was not yet the norm. As World War Two broke out in the South Pacific, she sent both her children to live with relatives in the U.S. Imprisoned by the Japanese for the duration of the war, Sarah Mathoma survived cancer, the constant threat of brutality, and a starvation diet. Drawing on historic documents, personal journals, and eyewitness accounts, Sally Brown (Sarah Mathloma's daughter) weaves this past into a tapestry that becomes a testament to the survival of the human spirit. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the unfolding Twentieth Century, Sarah Mathloma is the story of a remarkably modern woman-a feminist before feminism. About the author: Sally Brown grew up in the Philippines with her mother and younger brother. She is also the co-author, with her husband David, of A Biography of Mrs. Marty Mann: The First Lady of Alcoholics Anonymous.

Martha Palmer, the generous benefactor of Palmer House--a most extraordinary refuge for young women rescued from prostitution--has died. Denver society turns out in strength to honor the elderly woman, as do many of the young women who have lived, at some point during the past decade, under the roof of Palmer House and under the steady and godly leadership of Rose Thoresen.For Sarah Ellinger, Rose's trusted right hand, an invitation to the reading of Martha's will raises the possibility--and the fervent hope--that Martha has endowed Palmer House with funds to keep the ministry running. However, Sarah expects to receive nothing from Martha for herself. She is as stunned as every Palmer House girl present at the reading to hear: "To every young woman who lives or has lived at Palmer House and remains unmarried at the time of the reading of this will, I bequeath the sum of five hundred dollars as a bridal gift, payable upon her marriage. To those girls who have already married, I bestow the same amount, payable upon the execution of this will. If, however, a young woman who has lived at Palmer House remains unmarried, I bequeath the same sum, five hundred dollars, payable upon her thirty-ninth birthday."Five hundred dollars was a fortune many a Palmer House girl would never, in her lifetime, see again in a lump sum; it could enable a newly married couple to begin their marriage debt-free, perhaps buy a little piece of land or leverage a mortgage to purchase a home.While the girls of Palmer House, current and former, wept and rejoiced aloud, Sarah did not. She slowly shook her head.Oh, Martha. You left me a wonderful gift, for which I am most grateful. However, I cannot claim this gift unless I marry--or until I am quite near middle-aged. Why, Martha? Why did you arrange your generous bequest this way? I shall not be able to claim your gift for nearly eleven years . . . because I will never marry, whatever the inducement to do so.Girls from the Mountain Book 1: Tabitha Book 2: Tory Book 3: Sarah Redeemed

"McClanahan's prose is miasmic, dizzying, repetitive. A rushing river of words that reflects the chaos and humanity of the place from which he hails. He writes in an elliptical fever dream so contagious that slowing down is not an option. It would be like putting a doorstop in front of a speeding train. This is not a book you savor. It is one you inhale." -The New York Times"Part memoir, part hillbilly history, part dream, McClanahan embraces humanity with all its grit, writing tenderly of criminals and outcasts, family and the blood ties that bind us."--Interview Magazine"McClanahan's prose is miasmic, dizzying, repetitive. A rushing river of words that reflects the chaos and humanity of the place from which he hails. McClanahan] aims to lasso the moon... He is not a writer of halfmeasures. The man has purpose. This is his symphony, every note designed to resonate, to linger."--New York Times Book ReviewThe Sarah Book is Scott McClanahan's continuation of the semi-autobiographical portrait he's been writing over the years about his life in West Virginia.
