The Forms of Silence [ street photography ]
The Forms of Silence: Street Photography began many years ago with a simple but life-changing piece of advice from three dear friends-Tim, Shaba, and Paul-all experienced artists, publishers, and photographers. They saw something in me I hadn't yet recognized: that I had "the eye" for photography. Their encouragement led me to pick up a small camera and wander the streets, capturing fragments of life and experimenting with the way light and shadow converse. This journey, now approaching a decade, has been sustained by the unwavering support of those closest to me-my parents, siblings, my wife, my children, and friends like Johannes and Dave of the CEC family, who have walked beside me through every stage. Their belief in me, through seasons of uncertainty and wonder alike, has been a quiet but constant anchor.As a sociologist and theologian, my professional life is rooted in listening to the struggles and hopes of marginalized communities-work that often brings me to the edges of human vulnerability and resilience. Amid this intensity, I found myself longing for silence. Street and urban photography became that silence: a way to stand still, to breathe, and to find beauty in the overlooked corners of the everyday. I have always been drawn to the quiet transformations of the city - the way rain turns streets into living paintings, or how fallen leaves scatter like the soft kisses of Mother Nature upon the earth. These are the gestures that remind me there is poetry hidden everywhere, waiting patiently to be noticed.I don't see this book-or my work-as a masterpiece, for there are true masters of photography from whom I still have much to learn. Rather, I see it as a trace of my search-a personal record of listening for stillness in a world that rarely stops shouting.Sam Lee

Heart to Art Comparative Analysis
Readers may ask why authors write art books. What is the benefit of this book and all my other art-themed books? Well, it is to document, not just for me, but for historical value, my life and the lives of all artists that I feature from a diverse category of famous and not-so-famous artists. Developing a track record of our work is essential not just for us but for the next generation of artists on the horizon. Recall that many artists gained fame and fortune after their time, long after their gravestones needed remodeling. Vincent van Gogh is one such artist who only sold one painting in his lifetime. His fame and fortune came through his wife and brother, his posthumous advocates who shone the spotlight on his works. Well, I am not waiting to die as there might not be activists ready and willing to take on such a challenge on my behalf, especially since I spent 20 years studying to be a business person, an educator, and not an artist of any measure. You, the readers, are my only hope. Go for it!
Yolŋu Power
Offers a comprehensive insight into a group of world-recognized and celebrated artistsThe art of Yirrkala is inextricably intertwined with its cultural, political, and social history. For almost one hundred years, artists from this small community in north-east Arnhem Land in Australia's Northern Territory have shared art as a means of cultural diplomacy--as a respectful assertion of power in its diverse forms, from sovereignty to influence, authority, and control, to energy, strength, and pride.Published in association with a major survey at the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, Yolŋu Power features over two hundred works from the 1940s to the present day. It considers the significant moments in Yirrkala's history when artists have consciously altered their practice, developed new styles, or embraced new mediums. It also contextualizes the work of individual artists within the broader school of artists from Yirrkala and surrounding Miwatj Country. An essay by the exhibition's curator, Cara Pinchbeck, provides an overview of the various innovative art practices in Yirrkala, examining the influence of inheritance, family connections, and acts of diplomacy and activism. Djambawa Mariwili and Kade McDonald discuss the nuances of speaking for Country (land, sea, and sky), and Will Stubbs writes on the power embodied in Yolŋu art. The plates are interspersed with voices from Yirrkala, past and present, offering a range of perspectives on the visual culture of this important art center.Exhibition Dates: June 21-October 6, 2025 Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney

The Ark
This book presents the Church's new exhibition, The Ark, uniting powerful animal sculptures that, like Noah's Ark, offers hope that humanity's compassion and creativity can guide us through global crises. An undeniable pall hangs over the future of our world, with prospects looking increasingly uncertain and frightful. The interlocking social, political, and environmental crises exist on a planetary scale. However, from antiquity forward, the idea of an ark gave hope that humanity will, through resourcefulness, compassion, and solidarity, shepherd the world beyond catastrophe. The Ark, an extraordinary exhibition at The Church in Sag Harbor, brings together sculptures from several generations of artists who have captured humanity's deepest pleasures and fears through imagination and self-expression. Curated by renowned artist Eric Fischl, this collection resonates with the ancient story of survival against overwhelming odds. Within this contemporary ark, you'll discover sculptures that embody the inherent beauty of animals while simultaneously exploring the mythic, visual, and cultural with unexpected power. This book presents works that are not mere representations but embodiments of mysteries in our struggle for survival and protection against a hostile world. From Louise Bourgeois's monumental spiders to Deborah Butterfield's reclining horses, from William Kentridge's bronze pigeons to Jane Rosen's ethereal glass raptors--each piece invites contemplation of our place in nature.
Saints and Santos: Picturing the Holy in New Spain
An exploration of how sacred art evolved in early Mexico, adapting to local cultures and featuring over sixty breathtaking paintings, sculptures, and engravings. This beautifully illustrated book reveals the importance of saints in New Spain, a viceroyalty that was part of the Spanish Empire from 1521 to 1821, covering modern-day Mexico, Central America, and the US Southwest. In the late sixteenth century, Rome's attempts to manage sanctity as an official process had a profound impact throughout Spain and the Spanish viceroyalties. Saintly devotions traveled to Mexico and circulated within the vast territory as images or print, then to be transformed by New Spain's own communities. Published in collaboration with the New Mexico Museum of Art and drawing on collections from Mexico and the United States, this book examines the role of images in the construction of the holy. The relationship between sanctity and the pictorial is a long, revered tradition that continues in the work of New Mexico's santero artists today.

Art and Faith in Mexico
Nineteenth-century Mexico was a period of unprecedented political turmoil. One result of this instability was that many religious practices moved from the church to the home, and the retablo art form--sacred paintings on tin--flourished.With over 1,700 objects, New Mexico State University holds the largest collection of retablos of any museum in the United States. Eleven eminent Latin Americanists from the U.S. and Mexico have studied this collection and placed it in a broad cultural context. They have looked at the retablos from the standpoint of art history, history, anthropology, folk art, and religion to bring a new understanding of and appreciation for these paintings. This interdisciplinary approach brings together multiple influences in considering, for example, Baroque images as popular icons, Aztec gods and home altars, popular images in nineteenth-century Mexico, European and viceregal paintings, and bultos and santos from New Mexico. The richly varied retablo tradition continues to the present, making this volume a much-needed addition to the literature on the complex society that formed along the Camino Real between Mexico City and Santa Fe.In addition to the essays, the book includes restoration philosophy and conservation methods, a glossary, chronology, maps, and a comprehensive section on the art and iconography of each object in the Art Gallery collection.

Theaters of Conversion
Mexico's churches and conventos display a unique blend of European and native styles. Missionary Mendicant friars arrived in New Spain shortly after Cortes's conquest of the Aztec empire in 1521 and immediately related their own European architectural and visual arts styles to the tastes and expectations of native Indians. Right from the beginning the friars conceived of conventos as a special architectural theater in which to carry out their proselytizing. Over four hundred conventos were established in Mexico between 1526 and 1600, and more still in New Mexico in the century following, all built and decorated by native Indian artisans who became masters of European techniques and styles even as they added their own influence. The author argues that these magnificent sixteenth and seventeenth-century structures are as much part of the artistic patrimony of American Indians as their pre-Conquest temples, pyramids, and kivas. Mexican Indians, in fact, adapted European motifs to their own pictorial traditions and thus made a unique contribution to the worldwide spread of the Italian Renaissance.The author brings a wealth of knowledge of medieval and Renaissance European history, philosophy, theology, art, and architecture to bear on colonial Mexico at the same time as he focuses on indigenous contributions to the colonial enterprise. This ground-breaking study enriches our understanding of the colonial process and the reciprocal relationship between European friars and native artisans.
