In an idyllic Los Angeles neighborhood, where generations enjoy deep roots in old homes, the O’Rourke family fits right in. Miriam and Craig are both artists and their four children carry on the legacy. When their teenage son, Nick, is diagnosed with schizophrenia, a tumultuous decade ensues in which the family careens off the conventional course. Like the 10 Biblical plagues, they are hit by one catastrophe after another: violence, evictions, arrests, a suicide attempt, a near-drowning - even cancer and a brain tumor - play against the backdrop of a wild teenage bacchanal.

What begins as a meditation on photography evolves into something much deeper—a journey through art, memory, and self-discovery. In My Sort of Philosophy, Christian Santiago invites listeners into his world of storytelling, where images, words, and life experiences blur into one evolving narrative. This audiobook isn’t a traditional “how-to” or a step-by-step manual. Instead, it unfolds naturally—like a photograph developing in the darkroom—capturing the beauty of imperfection, the uncertainty of time, and the ways art shapes the way we see ourselves and the world around us.

Finding Me: From Imposter to Icon is the raw, unfiltered story of how I went from pretending to be someone else to becoming a two-time Photographer of the Year. It’s about the setbacks that nearly broke me, the unexpected moments that shaped me, and the lessons I learned from capturing one of the fastest, most chaotic sports in the world. More than a memoir about paintball or photography, this is a journey of identity, resilience, and discovering what happens when you stop living for others and start living for yourself.

Gennem samtaler med folk, der har kendt Poul Reichhardt (1913-1985), og et grundigt kig på hans livsforløb, fortæller Carsten Borch historien om en af danmarkshistoriens mest folkekære skuespillere og instruktører. Bogen fortæller om hans ukuelige gåpåmod, der fik ham frem i teater- og filmbranchen, selvom han igen og igen fik at vide, at han på trods af sit kønne udseende ikke ejede skyggen af talent.

La pieza es analizada con exhaustividad, incluyendo todo lo conocido hasta ahora de ella y exponiendo nuevas hipótesis, valientes pero cimentadas en el amplio conocimiento que el autor tiene de la sociedad ibérica y, sobre todo, de su ritualidad y religiosidad. La escultura antropomorfa ibera supone uno de los componentes más importantes de la llamada cultura ibérica, que permite comprenderla integrada en un fenómeno mediterráneo que se desarrolló en determinados lugares de sus territorios costeros.

This is the first book to closely examine the curatorial work that the celebrated poet Frank O'Hara (1926-1966) undertook for the Museum of Modern Art in New York and abroad. Upon his premature death, the New York Times obituary ran with the headline: 'Frank O'Hara, 40, Museum Curator / Exhibitions Aide at Modern Art Dies – Also a Poet'. However, in the half a century since, O'Hara's fascinating career as a curator has been eclipsed by the critical attention given over to his poetry.

Written by the former Deputy Head of Make-Up and Wigs at the National Theatre, this book opens up a process that very few people will otherwise be privy to, giving perspectives on the preparation before a production and responsibilities during, as well as looking more widely at training, career opportunities and success. From designing and fitting wigs to managing lightning-fast quick changes, hair, wigs and make-up people are a major part of the creation of any theatrical production.

Утром 12 октября 1654 года в городе Делфт раздался «раскат грома». Колоссальный взрыв на пороховом складе разрушил целый квартал, унеся сотни жизней и покалечив еще тысячи. Среди жертв был молодой ученик Рембрандта, автор знаменитого шедевра «Щегол», — Карел Фабрициус. Ему суждено пролежать под развалинами, среди дыма и удушающей пыли, рядом с собственным полотном, долгие шесть часов. Помощь пришла слишком поздно.

Step into the life of one of history’s greatest thinkers and discover how a curious boy from a small village in Italy changed the world forever. From the delicate brushstrokes of the Mona Lisa to the engineering marvels scribbled into secret notebooks, Leonardo da Vinci didn’t just create art—he imagined the future. In this richly detailed and accessible biography, listeners young and old will explore ten fascinating aspects of Leonardo’s genius. Each chapter unlocks a new side of the man whose mind refused to be confined by any single label.

He died broke, bleeding, and unknown. Now he’s priceless. Van Gogh: A Life in Color, Pain, and Immortality isn’t your typical artist biography. It’s a raw, unfiltered journey into the soul of a man we turned into a myth — and what we lost when we did. This book peels away the poster boy tragedy, the swirling clichés, and the pop-culture memes to reveal the real Vincent: a failed preacher, a frantic letter-writer, a man who lived on bread crusts and absinthe — and painted like the stars were screaming.

You’ve heard the names. You’ve seen the paintings. Maybe you even thought they were just Ninja Turtles. But behind the marble and oil paint were four real men—Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Donatello—who didn’t just create art. They rewired civilization. This isn’t a sleepy art history book. It’s a front-row seat to the most creative, competitive, and gloriously petty era in human history. Rivals, patrons, popes, politics, and power—it’s all here.

A cultural storm swept through the 1960s—Pop Art, Bob Dylan, psychedelia, underground movies—and at its center sat a bemused young artist with silver hair: Andy Warhol. Andy knew everybody (from the cultural commissioner of New York to drug-driven drag queens) and everybody knew Andy.
