Translating Time : Cinema, the Fantastic, and Temporal Critique (9780822345107)

Under modernity, time is regarded as linear and measurable by clocks and calendars. Despite the historicity of clock-time itself, the modern concept of time is considered universal and culturally neutral. What Walter Benjamin called "homogeneous, empty time" founds the modern notions of progress and a uniform global present in which the past and other forms of time consciousness are seen as superseded. In Translating Time, Bliss Cua Lim argues that fantastic cinema depicts the coexistence of other modes of being alongside and within the modern present, disclosing multiple "immiscible temporalities" that strain against the modern concept of homogeneous time. In this wide-ranging study-encompassing Asian American video (On Cannibalism), ghost films from the New Cinema movements of Hong Kong and the Philippines (Rouge, Itim, Haplos), Hollywood remakes of Asian horror films (Ju-on, The Grudge, A Tale of Two Sisters) and a Filipino horror film cycle on monstrous viscera ...

Ren Hang (9783836562072)

Ren Hang, who took his life February 23, 2017, was an unlikely rebel. Slight of build, shy by nature, prone to fits of depression, the 29-year-old Beijing photographer was nonetheless at the forefront Chinese artists' battle for creative freedom. Like his champion Ai Weiwei, Ren was controversial in his homeland and wildly popular in the rest of the world. He said, "I don't really view my work as taboo, because I don't think so much in cultural context, or political context. I don't intentionally push boundaries, I just do what I do." Why? Because his models, friends, and in his last years, fans, are naked, often outdoors, high in the trees or on the terrifyingly vertiginous rooftops of Beijing, stacked like building blocks, heads wrapped in octopi, body cavities sprouting phone cords and flowers, whatever entered his mind at the moment. He denied his intentions were sexual, and there is a clean detachment about even his most extreme images: the urine, the ...

Vodou (Voodoo) : Kunst und Kultur aus Haiti (3496028351)

Vodou (auch bekannt als Voodoo) ist in Haiti allgegenwärtig. In Haiti ist der Vodou eine vom Großteil der Bevölkerung ausgeübte obwohl erst seit 2003 offiziell anerkannte Religion. Er ist nicht nur Kult, sondern hat Einfluss auf sämtliche Aspekte des Lebens und verleiht so dem Alltäglichen einen Sinn. Die bildlichen Inszenierungen des Fotografen Johnathan Watts, ein Beitrag der haitianischen Ethnologin Rachel Beauvoir-Dominique und Interviews mit Marianne Lehmann und einem Vodou-Priester bieten einen Zugang zur tieferen Bedeutung des Vodou: das Gedenken an die Sklaven und ihr Ringen um Freiheit und Unabhängigkeit. Marianne Lehmann, eine Schweizerin, die 1957 nach Port-au-Prince kam, sammelt seit über 30 Jahren Vodou-Objekte. Der Katalog stellt mehr als 300 Exponate aus der Sammlung Lehmann vor, die weltweit erstmals in einer Ausstellung des Musée dethnographie de Genève (MEG) in Zusammenarbeit mit der Fondation pour la préservation, la valorisation et la production dOEuvres culturelles...

RoomHate (9781523662449)

RoomHate: The #1 Wall Street Journal Bestseller From New York Times Bestselling Author, Penelope Ward, comes a new standalone novel. Sharing a summer house with a hot-as-hell roommate should be a dream come true, right? Not when it's Justin...the only person I'd ever loved...who now hates me. When my grandmother died and left me half of the house on Aquidneck Island, there was a catch: the other half would go to the boy she helped raise. The same boy who turned into the teenager whose heart I broke years ago. The same teenager who's now a man with a hard body and a hardass personality to match. I hadn't seen him in years, and now we're living together because neither one of us is willing to give up the house. The worst part? He didn't come alone. I'd soon realize there's a thin line between love and hate. I could see through that smug smile. Beneath it all...the boy is still there. So is our connection. The problem is...now that I can't have ...
