permutation and portraiture: serial paintings of moons, stripes and the birds of maine by ann craven

birds we know is the catalog for an exhibition of paintings by new york–based artist ann craven (born 1967). this large survey at the center for maine contemporary art is the artist's first exhibition in maine, where she has been living part-time and painting since the early 1990s. it was at her farm house in lincolnville, maine, inspired by the colors of the natural environment, that craven completed her very first moon painting in 1995; she says her time in lincolnville "gave me my subject matter." the new exhibition and catalog include the imagery that craven is renowned for including her lushly colored, mesmerizing moon and stripe paintings, but here the birds dominate as the primary subject, including work made between 1997 and 2019. the book includes an essay by christopher b. crosman, formerly of the crystal bridges museum of american art and the farnsworth art museum

new research and cultural context on the life and art of hilma af klint
the 2018 exhibition at the guggenheim museum in new york, hilma af klint: paintings for the future, introduced the general public to the abstract mystical masterpieces of swedish painter hilma af klint (1862–1944). based on a seminar held at the guggenheim museum at the opening of this acclaimed exhibition, this volume compiles the insights of the seminar’s contributors alongside reproductions of works, archival photographs and images from af klint’s journals
hilma af klint: visionary explores the social and spiritual movements that appeared at the turn of the 20th century, inspiring the pioneers of modernism and abstract art: kandinsky, mondrian, malevich and af klint. what was the zeitgeist that inspired such an eruption in abstract art? what were the conditions that created hilma af klint? academics and experts julia voss, tracey bashkoff, isaac lubelsky, linda dalrymple henderson and Marco pasi each take a different approach. voss analyzes af klint's biography, pinpointing five important events in her life; bashkoff presents her connection to hilla rebay and her plans for the building of a temple; lubelsky traces the origins of theosophy in new york; henderson examines the occult and science; and pasi considers esotericism’s changing role in culture

the best recipes from penang, an island obsessed with food

penang is an explorer’s dream and a food-lover’s paradise. it’s the nasi lemak or kaya toast eaten for breakfast, served with a hot cup of kopi ‘o’ (black coffee), at one of the city’s bustling food courts. It’s the rejuvenative laksa after a morning’s sight-seeing, followed by a cooling cendol in the afternoon heat. it’s the char kuey teow prepared in a flash at one of the many late-night hawker stalls, washed down with local beer

like the island itself, p enang local celebrates the traditional cuisine that is cherished by locals and fervently adored by visitors, while embracing the multicultural influences that continue to shape this vibrant and historic food scene. p enang local is packed with delicious yet approachable recipes, so you can recreate the magic of penang at home
