Legends of Love
Following his previous three mystical poetry books, Ronnie Smith has composed his fourth mystical adventure on the Angelic Kingdom. These poetic revelations with substantive narrative to explain the workings of the Angelic brotherhood, along with illustrations and poetry, celebrate the angels and are inspired by the beauty, wisdom, and selfless service to humanity of the Angelic Hierarchy. This divine brotherhood, known since the dawn of Christianity and before, are often thought to be out of reach. They are within reach! They build and bind with us to form a divine interdependency of God's making, the Architect of the Cosmos as we know it. No matter what spiritual path of Christianity one is on-devotion, wisdom, meditation, or service--The Angelic Kingdom with its manifold ranks of divine helpers, is able to assist us on this road that all must tread to grow in spiritual union with the Godhead. There has always been a veil between the two divine-in-origin races, human and angel. But it is possible to receive insights from the angels who stand ready to help us along the way. This book also offers the perceptions to understand the purpose of the Angelic Hierarchy as they build and conduct the multifaceted divine plan of God in their own evolution intertwined with the human race.

The Black Curator
The Black Curator highlights the role that Black curators have long played in advocating for black artists and social changes and argues that they made a significant contribution to the democratization of museums over the last 150 years.Drawing on oral testimonies and archival research, this book examines how black curatorial activist practices emerged as a social and imaginative response to racism across various museum contexts. Exploring the work of black curators at three different museums, Benyehudah traces a lineage from black curators in the 19th century to those currently working in curatorial roles. Analysis of these case studies and the use of ideas from museum studies, critical race theory, and art history also enable the author to demonstrate how black curatorial practice was and is distinct from Eurocentric forms of curating black art. Explaining that the black curatorial lens was used in the process of establishing counter-archives, the author also demonstrates that it has played - and continues to play - a vital role in the decolonization of museums.Offering compelling ways to look at the relationship between black curators and legacies of colonialism in museums, The Black Curator will be essential reading for scholars, students, and museum practitioners.

Somewhere Between Art History and Phenomenology
Michael Ann Holly is fascinated by a silent route rarely chosen in the historical and critical history of art: the poetic possibility of phenomenology. Selecting early modern paintings by Bellini, Patinir, D羹rer, Rembrandt, Aertsen, Breughel, and Sassetta, she imagines what a range of classical phenomenologists in the twentieth century might quietly contribute to the understanding of these canonical works of art. This special brand of philosophy dares to think about what is whispered, hidden, concealed or veiled by a prosaic exchange with objects and images. The shift today from epistemology to ontology has resulted in a renewed attention to the animacy of objects. Through this (re)reading, and often offering a very personal account, she asks - how might we construe art history differently by intimating the magic of painting, the silence and wonder beneath words? Michael Ann Holly is Starr Director Emerita of the Research and Academic Program at the Clark Art Institute.

Planetary Realism
Traditions of realism are brought together with the decolonial and ecological concept of "planetarity" to understand a new realism in contemporary art. The devastation left in the wake of modernity and globalization is revealing a fragile and unfamiliar planet, and humanity has awakened to a new real. If the old "realist" tools of objectivism have contributed to capitalist society's divorce from the natural world, how are artists finding new ways to make us really see--and feel--the planet? Surveying a body of planet-facing art, communal practices, and activism, Josephine Berry investigates art's power to break with capitalist realism and decarbonize the imagination. With chapters on feeling as world-making, the rupture of petroleum landscapes, artists' urban exodus, and migration as survival, Planetary Realism delves deeply into art's necessary reimagining of life on Earth.
