Wayne Rooney, England's record goal scorer, is one of the most feared and respected strikers to have graced the Premier League in the last decade. He is certainly its most famous icon, appearing on the front pages of the newspapers nearly as often as on the back.Wayne started his glittering career as a teenage wonder at Everton, the club he had staunchly supported as a boy. A self-confessed and fiercely passionate blue-blood, Rooney was raised in Croxteth, a product of the rough district just outside the shadow of Goodison Park. After a white-hot start, the teenager joined regional rivals, Manchester United, in a seismic transfer and, in his deeply successful time at Old Trafford, won sixteen major honours, played in three World Cups, married his childhood sweetheart and began a young family, throwing off his reputation as the gifted 'wild-child' of English football.Yet, in the summer of 2017, the prodigal son returned to his first club, providing Evertonians with a sense of pride and football fans everywhere with a classic narrative. His warm reception made it clear that Rooney still has a special place in the hearts of Toffees fans, and the saga embodies the pride and passion that has propelled the Premier League to become the most exciting - and profitable - in the world. Told by veteran football writer Ian MacLeay, this is the definitive story of Rooney's explosive, emotive and turbulent return to Everton Football Club, and the historic season which followed.
"Wayne Goes Wild" tells the story of a wasp who had been famous when he saved hundreds of his pollinating friends being killed by a crop sprayer. He had flown into the cab and attacked the driver making him stop and leave his machine. His fame had not lasted so Wayne goes on the television show "Get Me Out Of Here" to remind everyone of his famous heroics. Things do not go very well for Wayne and he starts behaving very badly and gets into a lot of trouble. He eventually learns that there are more important things than being a famous celebrity.

Meta-Age is the final book in a trilogy covering Wayne Lèal’s midlife journey. The first book, 20-21, is about developing the discipline to make exercise an intrinsic behaviour such as brushing your teeth. The second, Lone Wolf, introduces the concept of becoming a ‘Super-Ager’ – one who is biologically younger than their chronological age. Meta-Age, the final book in the trilogy, marks Wayne’s midlife transition and the creation of a new life stage – ‘Meta-Age: a midlife extension, not old age’. All health and fitness roads lead to Meta-Age, that is, self-awareness of physical, mental, and social expectations beyond midlife. The desire to defy age is as ancient as human history. We cannot stop the natural intrinsic ageing process, but by taking some preventive actions, we can influence some factors of that process. The Meta-Age philosophy focuses on an extension of midlife, with a short old age, to write a new narrative of ageing as it could – and should – be.
This catalogue accompanies the first UK show of Wayne Thiebaud’s quintessentially postwar American paintings Wayne Thiebaud (1920–2021) is considered to be one of the greatest and most original American artists of the 20th century. This publication accompanies the first-ever museum show of his work in the United Kingdom, which will held at the Courtauld Gallery. The exhibition will accompany this richly illustrated and scholarly catalogue that will showcase research findings on Thiebaud’s early still lifes. It will also be underpinned by research into the archive of objects and papers held by the Thiebaud Foundation, which, although well organized, has yet to be fully explored. Wayne Thiebaud: American Still Life will showcase the ways in which Thiebaud recast the genre of still life for the modern age and created powerful images of American consumer culture in the years of postwar expansion and optimism. It will chart the moment when Thiebaud found his artistic voice, creating a highly original way of painting and drawing in order to express his vision of modern American consumer culture, which he considered to be a vital subject for contemporary painting. Thiebaud saw his work as continuing the radical legacy of earlier still-life paintings by Chardin, Manet, Cézanne and others. He believed in the importance of commonplace objects that might otherwise be overlooked or considered kitsch. His work turns hot dogs, lemon meringue pies and glossy cream cakes into the stuff of profound modern painting. The exhibition and catalogue will feature rarely lent works from private collections and major museum collections in the USA, including the National Gallery of Art, Washington, and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, as well as the Wayne Thiebaud Foundation.

Wayne Thiebaud's famous, literally candy-colored still lifes of pies, cakes, gumball machines, and lipsticks reflect the promise and abundance of the American way of life - a society of plenty, where supply exceeds demand. The tactile impression created by his pasty layers of paint brings the objects to life and creates an atmosphere in which irony and melancholy are carefully balanced. Testing the possibilities of painterly expression, Thiebaud’s brilliant painting technique explores the boundaries of the real and imagined world. This catalog presents all aspects of the legendary American artist’s oeuvre, including still lifes and portraits, as well as his deserted, multi-perspective cityscapes and river landscapes, in luminous pastels that exude a peculiar summertime sadness.
