Roswitha Hecke

Edition Patrick Frey

sidottu
Roswitha Hecke’s photo book Liebes Leben (Love Life) about the Zurich artist-muse and prostitute, Irene, also called “Lady Shiva,” was published for the first time in 1978. It became both a cult book and an international success. Reprinted many times and translated into several languages, it is finally available again. The new, revised volume put out by Edition Patrick Frey presents photos that have never before been published. It is through the director Werner Schroeter that Roswitha Hecke met Irene. Irene, a secret star of Zurich’s Bohème at that time, worked as a prostitute until her tragic accidental death. For three weeks Hecke photographed her daily routine in Zurich and accompanied her to Rome where Irene always celebrated her birthday. The result was a subtle and strong portrait of a woman, both beautiful and confident, with an unrivaled eroticism and proud elegance. The photos, a mix of choreographed and documentary work, capture an unusual immediacy and presence. “Irene wanted to be pretty, to be a woman, to be free. She was direct and moody, like a child. She loved a flirt more than marriage. Tension more than harmony. Longing more than satisfaction. And distance more than contact. She lived her life according to this, come what may. ” (Roswitha Hecke)

Overbetjent Camille Verhoeven befinner seg i en uvanlig periode i livet. Han er lykkelig gift med den vakre Irène og skal snart bli far. Men når en ny drapssak lander på pulten hans, et dobbeltdrap som er så ekstremt at selv de mest hardbarkede blant kollegene blir forferdet, får han bange anelser. Det virker ikke som det ligger noe motiv bak skrekkscenariet, men da det dukker opp en forbindelse til minst ett tidligere uløst drap, blir det klart at de har med en seriemorder å gjøre. Pressen er raskt og skadefro på banen og setter særlig Verhoeven i et dårlig lys. Men det er Verhoeven som står bak det store gjennombruddet: Dobbeltdrapet er en nøyaktig kopi av en scene i Bret Easton Ellis¿ bok American Psycho, og det skal vise seg at morderen lar seg inspirere av flere kriminalforfattere. «Forbløffende original fransk thriller ¿ en kriminalroman som tilhører sjangerens øverste sjikt både når det gjelder spenning og litterær kvalitet,» skrev Torbjørn Ekelund i Dagbladet da Pierre Lemaitres Alex kom på norsk i fjor. Ikke bare kritikerne var begeistret, det var leserne også.

Overbetjent Camille Verhoeven er lykkelig gift med den vakre Irène og skal snart bli far. Men tilværelsen blir vendt fullstendig på hodet da han blir satt til å oppklare et ekstremt brutalt dobbeltdrap. Verhoeven har aldri fryktet de uvanlige sakene, men denne etterlater ham alene ansikt til ansikt med en morder som ser ut til å ha forberedt alt. Pressen er raskt og skadefro på banen og setter særlig Verhoeven i et dårlig lys. Så skjer et nytt drap. Mye tyder på at det er en sammenheng.

Irene Rice Pereira

Irene Rice Pereira

Karen A. Bearor

University of Texas Press
1993
pokkari
Artist Irene Rice Pereira was a significant figure in the New York art world of the 1930s and 1940s, who shared an interest in Jungianism with the better-known Abstract Expressionists and with various women artists and writers seeking "archetypal" imagery. Yet her artistic philosophy and innovative imagery elude easy classification with her artistic contemporaries. In consequence, her work is rarely included in studies of the period and is almost unknown to the general public. This first intellectual history of the artist and her work seeks to change that.Karen A. Bearor thoroughly re-creates the artistic and philosophical milieu that nourished Pereira’s work. She examines the options available to Pereira as a woman artist in the first half of the twentieth century and explores how she used those options to contribute to the development of modernism in the United States. Bearor traces Pereira’s interest in the ideas of major thinkers of the period-among them, Spengler, Jung, Einstein, Cassirer, and Dewey-and shows how Pereira incorporated their ideas into her art. And she demonstrates how Pereira’s quest to understand something of the nature of ultimate reality led her from an early utopianism to a later interest in spiritualism and the occult.This lively intellectual history amplifies our knowledge of a time of creative ferment in American art and society. It will appeal to a wide range of readers interested in the modernist period.

Often called the First Lady of Hollywood, Irene Dunne, in a long and distinguished screen career, juggled comedies, dramas, and musicals with aplomb, and all three genres were represented in her five Academy Award nominations. Her television career was equally successful, including appearances as host or guest on numerous comedies, dramas, and variety shows. Active in many civic and philanthropic causes, she also served as an alternate delegate to the United Nations. All aspects of her career are documented in this first in-depth study of her work, including much information never previously chronicled. The opening biographical overview features reminiscences from colleagues such as James Stewart and Ralph Bellamy. Dunne's multiple careers on stage and in motion pictures, radio, and television are fully detailed in separate chapters, as are her recordings, song sheets, and numerous awards and nominations. An annotated bibliography records the diverse writings by and about her, and a list of magazine covers featuring Dunne over a period of twenty years is appended. All sections are fully cross-referenced and indexed. Photographs are also included--ranging from her childhood to her last public appearance as a recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors in 1985. A worthy tribute to this talented and beloved actress, this book will be an important source for research on Irene Dunne and her world.

Irene Emily Louise Morris was born in Southwark, London, on 8 October 1920, the youngest of five children born to Arthur and Florence. Her early life is largely a mystery as she rarely spoke of her childhood, nor of her experiences during the Second World War. It is only through the memoirs of her husband, Eric Mutton, that we have any written record at all. After the war, tragedy struck on more than one occasion and led to the decision to emigrate in 1958. Leaving England to raise their family in Tasmania proved rewarding. Despite more difficulties along the way, life was much improved and certainly more peaceful.This slim volume is a tribute to 'Rene', our Mum, and to commemorate the 100th year of her birth.

Stanford University Press

On July 13, 1942, French gendarmes arrested Irène Némirovsky in southern Burgundy. She was deported to Auschwitz where she died on August 19. Who was this woman, author of more than a dozen popular novels and more than thirty short stories, whose posthumous novel, Suite Française, won France's prestigious Renaudot prize in 2004? Born in Russia to wealthy parents, Irène Némirovsky immigrated to Paris in 1919. Although she was Jewish, she consorted with authors and politicians on the extreme right, some of whom were openly anti-Semitic. She was sure that these friends would protect her from deportation after the Nazis invaded France. Instead, they abandoned her. Yet she never lost faith in France, even after she was refused French nationality. In this fascinating biography, Jonathan Weiss analyzes the discrepancy between Némirovsky's real and imagined identities, and explores a literary work that revisits in a unique way Jewish identity, exile, betrayal, and the solidarity of a persecuted people.

This is the first full-length biography of Irene Dunne, one of the most versatile actresses of Hollywood's Golden Age. A recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors award in 1985, Dunne's acting highlights include five Best Actress Oscar nominations, occurring in almost as many different genres: the Western Cimarron (1931), the two screwball comedies Theodora Goes Wild (1936) and The Awful Truth (1937), the romantic comedy Love Affair (1939), and the populist I Remember Mama (1948). Her other memorable films include My Favorite Wife (1940), Penny Serenade (1941), Anna and the King of Siam (1946), and Life with Father (1947). After delving into Dunne's childhood and early acting forays, the book reveals details about key events in her life and career, including a difficult, bi-coastal marriage. The author also examines Dunne's pivotal roles on stage and in film, her movement among the genres of melodrama and screwball comedy, her ties to director Leo McCarey, and her post-war film career. Gehring's research and insightful analysis shed light on what made Irene Dunne so unique and her performances so memorable. Includes 16 pages of photos.

Irene Dalis was an opera star in the 20th century, performing leading roles alongside Placido Domingo, Leontyne Price, Franco Corelli, Birgit Nilsson, and Jussi Bj rling at the Metropolitan Opera, Covent Garden, San Francisco, Bayreuth, and other major houses. In this authorized biography of a remarkable woman, we learn about her international career and the successful opera company she started in her hometown, San Jose, California. Filled with fascinating backstage anecdotes, stories of luck and perseverance, some of the most ecstatic performance reviews ever written, and sketches of the great impresarios Rudolf Bing, Wieland Wagner, Kurt Herbert Adler, and Lotfi Mansouri, Irene Dalis: Diva, Impresaria, Legend is also the story of talented young singers who come to San Jose to launch their careers. The candid and sometimes humorous account is generously illustrated with photographs of Miss Dalis's family, early career, stardom in America and Europe, and the memorable opera productions staged by Opera San Jose over the last 40 years. Based on hundreds of hours of interviews with Irene Dalis, conductors, stage directors, former Opera San Jose resident artists, board members, orchestra members, and patrons, the book is also a celebration of something unique in America: an opera company that hires talented emerging singers for years at a time, forming a stable ensemble of singers that the audience grows to know and love in their wildly varying roles. This is also a must-read for arts administrators, as an inspiring story of making a vision into a reality, overcoming obstacles, attracting the right people, and keeping one's institution in the black. This new edition covers the last 10 years: Irene Dalis passes, Opera San Jose survives the pandemic and enters a thriving new era, premieres the first opera of a world-famous young music prodigy, welcomes brilliant new artists, and creates a high-tech digital studio. With bonus chapters on opera lore, hilarious onstage bloopers, and other guilty pleasures. 346 pages. Includes appendix, discography, complete lists of Opera San Jose productions and resident artists, sources, and index.
