Didrichsenin taidemuseon Rafael Wardi -näyttely ja siitä tehty julkaisu luovat katseen viimeiseen saakka hämmästyttävällä tarmolla työskennelleen taiteilijan perintöön. Esillä on ensimmäistä kertaa nähtäviä teoksia sekä rakastettuja töitä vuosikymmeniä kestäneen uran varrelta.Rafael Wardi kuoli 93-vuotiaana elokuussa 2021 jättäen jälkeensä ainutlaatuisen taiteellisen perinnön. Vielä yli 90-vuotiaanakin aktiivisesti työskennelleen Wardin viimeisten vuosien tuotanto on laajuudessaan vaikuttava, ja taiteilija maalasi loppuun saakka.
Rafael Karsten - bland indianfolk i SydamerikaI sin biografi över etnologen och religionsforskaren Rafael Karsten (1879-1956) hittar Rene och Raili Gothoni tre sammanbindande teman: religion, äventyr och utanförskap - alla med rötter i Karstens barndom och uppväxt. Hans äventyrliga, djupgående och banbrytande forskning bland indianfolken i Sydamerika ledde till stor popularitet, men senare anpassade han sig inte till utvecklingen inom antropologin och sociologin, och blev en outsider inom den akademiska världen.
A critical look at the life, work, and influence of the important and award-winning Spanish architect Rafael Moneo The Spanish architect Rafael Moneo (b. 1937) has won numerous awards (including the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize), yet this publication is the first to offer a critical study of his career as a whole—not only his many built works and projects but also his contributions to teaching and his writings. The book begins with a comprehensive biography, covering Moneo’s education, teaching appointments, and encounters with historians and architects in Europe and the United States, such as Peter Eisenman, Jørn Utzon, and Bruno Zevi. Also included is a discussion of some of the buildings that he has designed, notably the Prado Museum extension and Atocha Station in Madrid. The following section examines in more detail seven key buildings chosen to illustrate crucial developments in Moneo’s thinking, from the Bankinter, Madrid, to the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels, Los Angeles. The last and most extensive section considers his architectural philosophy: his design approach, his idea of the canon, his theory of composition, his notion of form, and his confrontation with reality—in construction and context.

What if life in a super-villain organization was less like a James Bond movie and more like working at Walmart Corporate? Imagine The Office but with more explosive, action-packed adventure, sex, food and general stupidity crossed with superheros. Welcome to the world of Rafael Garcia, a low-level henchman for hire. It’s a dead-end job but someone’s got to do it. With office politics, team building workshops, drug testing, helping to increase his villainous boss' social media standing – and all the soul-sucking problems of working in middle management. Can Rafael cut through the BS, prove himself, and succeed? Can he handle the dark secret at the heart of Maverick, Inc.? Rafael Garcia: Henchman is a high-octane action comedy that brings all the old familiar tropes of a dark workplace comedy by way of a brand-new cinematic superhero universe. From Emmy-Award winning Writer Peter Murrieta (Wizards of Waverly Place / Mr.Iglesias) and Writer/Filmmaker David Schrader (Baby Badass), comes an action comedy that mixes the daily grind of The Office with the slacker absurdity of Stripes -- if the General in charge was more like Lex Luthor. The series is brought to you by lifelong readers of comics with a deep love for the world of superheroes. A love that planted the seed for questions like “Who provides the janitorial services at JLA Headquarters? And do they have a benefits package?” And when is it not appropriate to bitch about your work colleagues, while your taking part in a billion-dollar heist.
