Review Bakhtin and the Visual Arts (Cambridge Studies in New Art History and Criticism) / Cambridge University Press:Bakhtin and the Visual Arts is the first book to assess the relevance of Mikhail Bakhtin's ideas as they relate to painting and sculpture. Deborah Haynes' in-depth study of Bakhtin's aesthetics, especially his theory of creativity, analyzes its applicability to contemporary art theory and criticism. With such categories as answerability, outsideness and unfinalizability, Bakhtin, the author posits, offers a conceptual basis for interpreting the moral dimensions of creative activity.

Review Paul Klee Catalogue Raisoneé Volume I: 1883-1912 / Thames & Hudson:Paul Klee (1879_1940) is one of the most significant and best-loved artists of the twentieth century. For the nine volumes of this landmark in Paul Klee scholarship, the Berne-based Paul Klee Foundation has researched intensively the artist's 9,600 drawings, prints, watercolors, and oil paintings, allowing the artist's complete works to be assembled and published for the first time. Presenting Klee's oeuvre in chronological order, each volume contains an introduction in German and English, an explanation of the catalogue system, a German-English glossary, a bibliography, and indexes. All the entries are illustrated and include catalogue numbers, technical descriptions, measurements, references to related works, details of provenance and location, relevant literature, and a list of exhibitions and auctions in which works have appeared. Klee's own entries from the catalogue he wrote from 1911 onwards are also included, and the most important works of his career are illustrated in color. Volume III follows Klee from 1919 through 1922, when he taught at the Bauhaus and became particularly involved with Bauhaus theater. Many of his works from this period-masks, clowns, acrobats, ballet dancers-reflect the influence of drama, ballet, the circus, and cabaret performances. This monumental publication is an essential reference work for libraries, art resources, and lovers of Klee's poetic, imaginative, and wholly original work.

Review William Claxton: Jazzlife / Taschen:In 1960, photographer William Claxton and noted German musicologist Joachim Berendt traveled the United States hot on the trail of jazz music. The result of their collaboration was an amazing collection of photographs and recordings of legendary artists as well as unknown street musicians.

In 2003, TASCHEN began reassembling this important collection of material – along with many never-before-seen color images from those trips. They are brought together in this updated volume, which includes a foreword by Claxton tracing his travels with Berendt and his love affair with jazz music in general. Utilizing the benefits of today's digital technology, a restored audio CD from Joachim Berendt's original recordings has been produced and is included in this package. Jazz fans will be delighted to be able to take a jazz-trip through time, both seeing and hearing the music as Claxton and Berendt originally experienced it. Featuring photographs of Charlie Parker, Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Muddy Waters, Gabor Szabo, Dave Brubeck, Stan Getz, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Miles Davis, Charlie Mingus, Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane, and many more Includes bonus CD of digitally remastered recordings of music made during Berendt and Claxton’s journey (originally released in 1960 as two records).

Review The Mythology of Vincent Van Gogh / TV Asahi:Since his death in 1890, numerous myths have arisen about the life and person of Vincent van Gogh. The painter has variously been seen as a misunderstood genius, "peintre maudit", martyr, or the tormented soul in search of truth. While some regarded his as an inspired madman, others credited Van Gogh with a profound and lucid artistic vision. The image of the unrecognized master struggling in poverty and obscurity is well-known, but so is Van Gogh's reputation as a major source of inspiration for contemporary and later generations of artists. Van Gogh's letters continue to fascinate generation upon generation. The bookshelves of biographies and the studies of his work reflect this myriad of perspectives, confirming popular images and creating ever new ones. "The Mythology of Vincent van Gogh" attempts to describe this myth-building process over the past hundred years in Europe, the United States and in Japan. The contributions in this wide-ranging collection catalogue the influences of the many images of Van Gogh, not only in art and art criticism, but also in literature, film and the performing arts. References are also made to medical literature, Van Gogh scholarship, forgeries, the organizing of exhibitions, museums and collections, art dealing and auctions. Even peripheral matters, like the rise of the Van Gogh "industry", are discussed in this rich collective volume. [+]Studies like this usually confine their focues to the field of art and art criticism. "The Mythology of Vincent Van Gogh" goes beyond the conventional boundaries and stresses the importance in today's multi-media society of the role of film, television, and video in the creation and use of the myths assigned to artists and their work. The effect of mass communication has made a radical change in the public's experience and conception of art. This trend has been reinforced by the growing popularity of art exhibitions and the growth of the tourist industry. More than just a collection of articles inspired by Van Gogh, "The Mythology of Vincent van Gogh" contains interviews with important fielm directors and actors; extensive lists of literary works, medical literature, films, dances, operas and music that in one way or another refer to the many myths surrounding Vincent van Gogh and his work. The contribution on forgeries reconsiders the authenticity of several works in private and public collections. Many of the forgeries or the so-called doubtful works are reproduced here in colour. The wealth of illustration and documentation, combined with its wide scope and the critical assessment of the many aspects of the mythology of Vincent van Gogh should make this book a useful source for art historians, libraries, museums, art dealers, and anyone interested in Van Gogh's life and work.
