The work of Wolf Vostell bears witness to a life of social and political commitment that can only be compared to that of his friend and traveling companion Joseph Beuys. In 1958, Vostell was the first, along with Nam June Paik, to use television sets in artistic installations, and in 1963, he presented the first video installation ever exhibited in the U.S.A founding figure of Fluxus activity in Europe, he termed his work de-coll/age, a word he used to represent his actions and happenings that assembled the mobile fragments of reality to investigate the wars and tragedies of contemporary history: the Shoah, the Berlin Wall, Vietnam, the Gulf War, and Sarajevo. This retrospective catalogue presents documentation of fifty works covering the entire period of Vostell's artistic production, from the late 1950s to the mid-1990s.
The World's Game: A History of Soccer by Bill Murray, ISBN 0252067185
Known as much for the emotional outbursts and violence of its fans as for its own stars, soccer (or football, as it is known outside the United States) is a global game. Its international controlling body, FIFA, boasts more members than the United Nations. Bill Murray traces the growth of what during pre-industrial times was called "the simplest game" through its codification in the nineteenth century to the 1994 World Cup, held for the first time in the United States. Murray weaves the sport's growth into the culture and politics of the countries where it has been taken up, analyzing its reputation as a game that has seen more riots and on-field brawls than all other types of football combined. He vividly illustrates how soccer has become the world's most popular sport, one that has resisted the interference of politicians, dictators, and profiteers and - more recently - the demands of television, through which it has spread to virtually every corner of the globe. The World's Game will...

The Aesthetics of the Japanese Lunchbox by Kenji Ekuan, ISBN 0262550350
The Makunouchi Bento, or traditional Japanese lunchbox, is a highly lacquered wooden box divided into quadrants, each of which contains different delicacies. It is also one of the most familiar images of Japan's domestic environment. When presented to the diner, the Japanese lunchbox seems straightforward enough; each of four food portions resides in its own compartment, apparently obeying a strict lunchbox geometry. So far, just food. But Kenji Ekuan reveals that a much deeper reading is possible, one that sees the lunchbox as nothing less than a key to an understanding of Japanese civilization, the spirit of form, and the aesthetic ideal in which the many are reduced to one.Ekuan reads the Japanese lunchbox as both object and metaphor. It is one of this book's many charms that he is able to see it as both simultaneously. He compares the visual pleasures of the Zen lunchbox to an aerial view of the Japanese archipelago; he invites us to savor its quadripartite structure as we savor the...

Ibsen, a Doll's House by Egil Tornqvist, ISBN 0521478669
Ibsen's A Doll's House is one of the most widely debated plays, but which version of the play do we refer to--the original text, translations, stage presentation, radio, film or television adaptations? This study addresses these questions and examines how the choice of medium and directorial approaches have influenced the meaning of the play text. Comparative analysis of the text and performance is framed by biographical background to the play and its impact on later dramatists such as Strindberg and Shaw.
