Helen is an amateur bird watcher and naturalist who lives in a rural community in Wales. When a local farmer Bill tells Helen that a “rare bird†named Emrys killed himself at Cuddig farm, she decides to investigate. One of the dogs at the farm tells her, by way of explanation, that Emrys “had no feathers and couldn’t fly.†She plucks an old cosmetic kit from a dumpster and discovers it belonged to Emrys. Inventorying the kit’s contents, she finds a spent .12 gauge shotgun shell. Her attempt to learn more about Emrys turns into a journey of self-discovery and ultimately a hard-fought reconciliation with the world — as it is. Carol Swain’s Gast is the rare kind of contemporary graphic novel critics are conjuring when they exult over the promise of the art form— a philosophically mature vision, uniquely executed by an artist wholly in control of her craft. In Gast, Helen’s inner life is slowly revealed through a mixture of naturalistic detail and phantasmagoric occurrences.

Der Autor, 20 Jahre Generaldirektor der Künstleragentur der DDR, zieht Bilanz: Er beschreibt die vielfältige kulturelle Infrastruktur und das reiche künstlerische Potential der DDR, erinnert an die Anfänge nach 1945, an die umfangreiche Zusammenarbeit mit den sozialistischen Ländern und beleuchtet die Rolle der kulturellen Beziehungen im Bemühen der DDR um internationale Anerkennung und die Ausweitung der kulturellen Beziehungen nach 1972. Erinnert wird an Gastspiele von zahlreichen Künstlern und Ensembles mit Weltgeltung, wie z. B. mit dem Burgtheater Wien, den Wiener Philharmonikern und 'Cats' aus Österreich, dem Kabucki-Theater aus Japan sowie an die Glanzpunkte des Kulturfestivals zur 750-Jahrfeier Berlins. Begegnungen mit Weltstars wie David Oistrach, Swjatoslaw Richter, Placido Domingo, Yehudi Menuhin, Leonard Bernstein und Herbert von Karajan und Geschichten um Armstrong, Springsteen und Dylan, BAP, Miriam Makeba, Mireille Matthieu und Udo Jürgens werden erzählt. Auch die vielen Gastspiele von hervorragenden Künstlern und Ensembles der DDR in alle Welt, die das Ansehen des kleinen Landes mit seiner erstaunlich reichen Kultur gefördert haben, werden beschrieben, ohne die gelegentlichen Schwierigkeiten und Probleme auszuklammern. Ein Motto hat die Arbeit der Künstleragentur in den Jahren ihrer Existenz immer bestimmt: Alles für unsere Künstler.

Though our modern understanding of the medieval doctrine of Purgatory is generally shaped by its presentation by Dante in the Divine Comedy, there is a lengthy history of speculation about the nature of such a place of purgation. Through these fourteenth-century Middle English poems, readers can experience something of the controversies that surfaced and resurfaced even after Aquinas had articulated his doctrine of the Communion of Saints. The Gast of Gy, as Foster notes, puts a human face on the doctrine of Purgatory, not only in the amiable, logical, and patient person of the Gast of Gy himself, . . . but also in the careful and cautious dialogue between the Gast and the Pryor who questions him. Sir Owain and The Vision of Tundale present two accounts of the purgatorial journeys of living individuals who are offered a chance to see the torments they have brought upon themselves by their less-than-perfect lives along with the opportunity to return and amend those lives. All three poems were quite popular, as was the doctrine of Purgatory itself. And why not? As Foster notes in his general introduction, it the doctrine of Purgatory had everything: adventure and adversity, suffering and excitement, and, most importantly, a profound theological warning wrapped in the joyful solace of communion with the departed and hope for our own sinful selves.

Inspired by the aura of the models from Zuffenhausen, they create works of art that achieve five- and six-figure prices at auctions. The Porsche 911, as the icon of the brand, is often at the center of the works. For the most part, the artists approach the object and its forms in a classical way, in oil or acrylic. Increasingly though, these artists are also designing contemporary digital art. The artists hail from all over the world - from urban and multi-cultural New York to the Scottish highlands, and the North German Plain. What all the artists have in common is that they use the charisma of the Porsche lines and curves to put it into a new context. Curated by the renowned painter and performance artist Uli Hack, the book shows a kaleidoscope of contemporary Porsche art. Text in English and German.
