James Turrell: A Retrospective

James Turrell: A Retrospective

Alison de Lima Greene; Gary Tinterow

DISTRIBUTED ART PUBLISHERS
2023
sidottu
The only comprehensive volume on James Turrell is back in print—from early prints and light projections to his monumental Roden Crater project This definitive book illuminates the origins and motivations of James Turrell’s incredibly diverse and exciting body of work—from his Mendota studio days to his monumental work-in-progress Roden Crater. Whether projecting shapes on a flat wall or into the corner of a gallery space, Turrell is perpetually asking us to "go inside and greet the light"—evoking his Quaker upbringing. In fact, all of Turrell’s work has been influenced by his life experiences with aviation, science and psychology, and as a key player in Los Angeles’ exploding art scene of the 1960s. Enhanced by thoughtful essays and an illuminating interview with the artist, this monograph explores every aspect of Turrell’s career—from his early geometric light projections, prints and drawings, through his installations exploring sensory deprivation and seemingly unmodulated fields of colored light, to two-dimensional experiments with holograms. It also features an in-depth look at Roden Crater, a site-specific intervention into the landscape near Flagstaff, Arizona, which is presented through models, plans, photographs and drawings. Fans of this highly influential artist will find much to savor in this wide-ranging and beautiful book, featuring specially commissioned photography by Florian Holzherr. As an undergraduate, James Turrell (born 1943) studied psychology and mathematics, transitioning to art only at MFA level. The recipient of several prestigious awards, including Guggenheim and MacArthur fellowships, Turrell lives in Arizona.

A Campaign of Giants-The Battle for Petersburg

A. Wilson Greene; Gary W. Gallagher

The University of North Carolina Press
2018

Grinding, bloody, and ultimately decisive, the Petersburg Campaign was the Civil War's longest and among its most complex. Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee squared off for more than nine months in their struggle for Petersburg, the key to the Confederate capital at Richmond. Featuring some of the war's most notorious battles, the campaign played out against a backdrop of political drama and crucial fighting elsewhere, with massive costs for soldiers and civilians alike. After failing to bull his way into Petersburg, Grant concentrated on isolating the city from its communications with the rest of the surviving Confederacy, stretching Lee's defenses to the breaking point. When Lee's desperate breakout attempt failed in March 1865, Grant launched his final offensives that forced the Confederates to abandon the city on April 2, 1865. A week later, Lee surrendered at Appomattox Court House.Here A. Wilson Greene opens his sweeping new three-volume history of the Petersburg Campaign, taking readers from Grant's crossing of the James in mid-June 1864 to the fateful Battle of the Crater on July 30. Full of fresh insights drawn from military, political, and social history, A Campaign of Giants is destined to be the definitive account of the campaign. With new perspectives on operational and tactical choices by commanders, the experiences of common soldiers and civilians, and the significant role of the United States Colored Troops in the fighting, this book offers essential reading for all those interested in the history of the Civil War.

4th and 30: a Gary Green true-life adventure

Gary Green

Penny Arcades Press
2019
nidottu
It is real. It Happened. And it mattered.There used to be something called JOURNALISM. It was a noble "Fourth Estate". There was no concept of anything called "fake news". Cronkite was the "most trusted man in America" and the Times & Post were paragons of integrity. Newspapers were actually "a thing".Add to that landscape: axe murders; international monetary manipulation; a small-town police department; Congressional corruption; insane religious cults; cover ups; con men; assassinations; and the ugly zeitgeist of Southern racism.In a city with the highest per-capita murder rate in the country, Gary Green often arrived on the scene before the cops. Known for unorthodox hands-on reporting that took readers into and behind the scenes, his life was filled with shoot-outs, drug raids, high-speed chases, and every manner of blood and gore. His colorful exploits led to an international mystery of entanglements that made Moriarty look like a piker.A roman clef novelization is a novel about real life, overlaid with a fa ade of fiction. The technique is in the spirit of Sylvia Plath, John Banville, Truman Capote, Simone de Beauvoir, Ernest Hemingway, George Orwell, Jack Kerouac, Victor Hugo, Blaise Cendrars, Philip K. Dick, Bret Easton Ellis, Jay McInerny, Naguib Mahfouz, Charles Bukowski, Malachi Martin, Saul Bellow, Hunter S. Thompson, James Joyce, and others writing autobiographical experiences about controversial topics, reporting inside information, or detailing crimes.This book, 4th and 30, in that spirit brings us one of the many over-the-top life adventures of Gary Green.

Because That Is What We Do: A Pathway to Tribal Economic Sovereignty

Gary Green

PA PRESS
2019
nidottu
Written by the star of the television series "Casino Rescue", this book is a guide to strategic planning for Tribe-to-Tribe economic development partnerships. It is a blueprint -by example- of one Tribe's model for creating sustainable economic development with casinos as the starting engineWhile it tells the success-story of the Willapa Bay Enterprises (WBE) Corporation of the Shoalwater Bay Indian Tribe, it actually is a handbook for intertribal processes to transform strained low-income Tribal enterprises into modern successful economic engines.The backstory is a common one; a Tribal history wrought with struggle, an under-performing casino, misfired businesses, but with Tribal leaders who are eager to take care of their people and build prosperity.In a novel-perfect plot twist, it all turns around when the right team comes together and creates not only incredible success but a template for sharing the success with other Tribes. Once the story plays out, the stage is set for a cookie-cutter roadmap to success; a formula that almost any Tribe can duplicate by partnering with WBE.This book outlines how that partnership works.Author Gary Green is a former Donald Trump casino vice president, host and star of the television series "Casino Rescue" and the author of the landmark book "Osceola's Revenge; The Phenomena of Indian Casino". He is often regarded as being among the country's most knowledgeable executives and colorful raconteurs. Across multiple disciplines, he is widely known as a genuine "character" and showman. He once owned an actual "under the big top" circus. In technology, at one time 5% of all transactions on the planet used Gary Green's software methodology (which led to a successful IPO for that project). He was once known as one of America's most intense folksingers and rock poets (with his three 1970's albums now part of the Smithsonian collection in Washington DC).In addition to being memorialized in the prestigious Smithsonian Institution, he has thousands of Twitter followers, Facebook fans, and LinkedIn connections, is recorded in IMDB.com (Internet Movie Database), listed in the Wikipedia online encyclopedia, and has two Pulitzer nominations in journalism, along with a string of other honors and awards. He has served on the Board of Directors of a number of publicly-traded and privately-held companies, as well as non-profits and associations. He is a member of the Country Music Association, the Americana Music Association, the Society of American Magicians, the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers, and is represented by fabled Hollywood agent Alan Morell's Creative Management Partners.

Designed for newly minted attorneys, A People's Practice is a practical guide about the ins and outs of practicing law. The author, Gary Green, has practiced law in Arkansas for more than 30 years and has extensive experience in trying cases in court. As he says in the Introduction, "I love practicing law. I love everything about it. Interacting with people, helping them, helping fellow lawyers, providing for my family, doing something positive for my community.... I love it when I learn new things about the law, and I love it when I am able to share some things I have learned from others. That is why I am writing this paper chase compendium. The way I look at it, if I learn one new thing at a continuing legal education seminar, it was worth it. My hope is that you learn one new tidbit from reading this, and that you smile or scratch your head at the other stuff."

Green Mountain Opium Eaters: A History of Early Addiction in Vermont

Green Mountain Opium Eaters: A History of Early Addiction in Vermont

Gary G. Shattuck

History Press Library Editions
2017
sidottu
The green mountains, lush valleys and riotous fall colors of idyllic nineteenth-century Vermont masked a sinister underbelly. By 1900, the state was in the throes of a widespread opium epidemic that saw more than 3.3 million doses of the drug being distributed to inhabitants each and every month. Decades of infighting within the medical profession, complicit doctors and druggists, unrestricted access to opium and bogus patent medicines all contributed to the problem. Those conflicts were compounded by a hands-off legislature focused on prohibiting the consumption of alcohol. Historian Gary G. Shattuck traces this unusual aspect of Vermont's past.

The Biking Birder 2016: A Green Birding Quest for 300

Gary B. Prescott

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2018
nidottu
"Chris Boardman, Chris Hoy, Jason Kenny, Chris Froome, Laura Trott, Bradley Wiggins .... in 2016 one Gary Prescott attempted to add his name to this long line of illustrious British cycling champions. At sixty years old, asthmatic and (by his own admission) slightly over-weight, Gary - often simply referred to as the Biking Birder - cut a slightly surprising figure as a potential cycling record holder but what he may have lacked in physical prowess he more than compensated for in sheer will and determination and in 2016 he reached for the stars in attempting to set a new European Green Birding for the most species recorded in one calendar year." The thought of seeing 300 different birds in a year in the UK is one that many birders dream of. To achieve such by cycling over 7,000 miles from Lands End to Shetland, to see those birds, whilst challenging for the European record is an undertaking few would take on. In fact this book tells of a unique quest. Green Birding is a growing, yet vital phenomenon. Whereas most will know of a birders desire to list the birds seen, or maybe be aware of a twitcher's need to travel possibly hundreds of miles to see a lost waif, a bird far away from it's chosen migratory path, a Siberian Accentor or a Franklin's Gull; few will know that there are some birders who pursue birds through Green means. Gary details not only his remarkable journey undertaken in 2016 and how he saw over 300 bird species but also tells of people met, the places seen and fills the pages with anecdote and nostalgia. Some stories are taken from his previous Biking Birding years, those two years when Gary cycled to every RSPB and W&WT nature reserve in the UK - twice The first in a forthcoming series, The Biking Birder Adventures, Gary will be cycling and kayaking around Peru in 2018, aiming to become the World Green Big Year record holder.

Critical Skills for Academic Assignments: A Student Toolkit 1e

Critical Skills for Academic Assignments: A Student Toolkit 1e

Gary Jones; Paula Green

Open University Press
2021
nidottu
Based on the authors two decades of experience in lecturing and teaching academic skills within a higher-education setting, the work is a response to the challenges facing today’s students in understanding the principles of critical thinking and applying it to their University studies. Critical Thinking for Academic Assignments is an invaluable tool for any student wanting to understand what is meant by critical thinking and how to apply these skills to the different stages of the assessment process. Unlike most textbooks within this area on the market, it focuses solely upon practical advice rather than adopting a philosophical, more abstract, understanding of critical thinking. This practical approach to the topic allows students to move from lower to higher-level thinking skills. Written in an engaging and concise style, the work is a guide designed to be accessible to students from across multiple disciplines who want key pieces of information that can be easily translated to their studies. The book is interactive and engaging, raising the student’s involvement with the subject area through practical activities and examples. Its easy-to-use structure and approach take’s the student on a logical journey starting at the beginning of the assessment process through to engaging with feedback and critical thinking for the job market. At the same time the five-part structure with subchapters allow students to quickly ‘dip in’ and ‘dip out’ of any part of the book to meet their own individual learning needs. While the main focus is on assessment, the text also highlights the importance of these skills for employability

Readers will learn three distinct painting methods: water-soluble colored pencil; wax and oil-based colored pencil with solvents; and wax-based colored pencil used with a heated surface.

Readers will discover an unlimited variety of creative possibilities, from the painterly style of acrylics and oils, to the loose watercolor look of water-soluble colored pencils, plus everything in between. Easy to follow step-by-step demonstrations, teach different techniques and subject, and include specific materials lists and color pallets.

Fifty Years at the Pit

Fifty Years at the Pit

Gary Herron; Hunter Greene

University of New Mexico Press
2018

Basketball fans at the University of New Mexico have always been loyal, loud, and numerous, and the devotees have grown in number over the fifty years since the opening of the University Arena, a.k.a. the Pit, in 1966. Herron recounts many of the best players and games in this celebration of one of the best-known facilities in the United States.With almost two hundred color photographs, this illustrative explosion shows you the players, the plays, the coaches, and the sold-out crowds dressed in red. You can recall the colorful nicknames: Petie Gibson, Marvin “Automatic” Johnson, and, of course, “Stormin’ Norman” Ellenberger. This stunning work also contains extensive statistics that will not disappoint—like who took the Lobos to the most postseason contests.Herron does not overlook women’s basketball, a standout sport at UNM, nor does he omit the great non-UNM entertainment that has happened at the Pit: the NMAA state high school basketball tournament, the Gathering of Nations, boxing matches, bull riding, concerts, and more.
