Trade Paperback. Condizione: Used - Very Good. Since the 1970s, the South African artist William Kentridge has charted the turbulent terrain of his homeland in both personal and political terms. With erudition, absurdist humor, and an underlying hope in humankind, Kentridge's artwork has examined apartheid, humanitarian atrocities, aging, and the ambiguities of growing up white and Jewish in South Africa. This October Files volume brings together critical essays and interviews that explore Kentridge's work and shed light on the unique working processes behind his drawings, prints, stop-animation films, and theater works. he texts include an interview by the artist Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, curator of the first major retrospective of Kentridge's work; an essay by Andreas Huyssen on the role of shadow-play in Kentridge's film series 9 Drawing for Projection; and investigations of Kentridge's work for opera and theater by Maria Gough, Joseph Leo Koerner, and Margaret Koster Koerner. An analysis by influential art historian Rosalind Krauss, the editor of this volume, argues that Kentridge's films are the result of a particularly reflexive drawing practice in which the marks on the page -- particularly the smudges, smears, and erasures that characterize his stop-animations -- define the act of drawing as a temporal medium. Krauss's understanding of Kentridge's work as embodying a fundamental tension between formal and sociological poles has been crucial to subsequent analyses of the artist's work, including the new essay by the anthropologist Rosalind Morris, who has collaborated with Kentridge on several projects.Essays and InterviewsCarolyn Christov-Bakargiev, Maria Gough, Andreas Huyssen, William Kentridge, Joseph Leo Koerner, Margaret Koster Koerner, Rosalind Krauss, Rosalind Morris Book has remainder mark on text edge.

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. Starmer Brothers ( Cover Art ) - William Henry and/or Frederick (illustratore). ORiginal large format vintage sheet music - pianoforte score. Minor edgewear and stapled spine, all else quite fine. The Meadowbrook Fox Trot is a piece of ragtime-influenced dance music composed by Arthur M. Kraus and published in 1914 by the New York firm Jos. W. Stern and Company. The piece dates to 1914 and is written in F major at a moderato tempo, scored for piano, and catalogued in the ragtime genre. It was part of the enormous wave of fox trot compositions that flooded the American market that year, when the dance was newly fashionable and publishers rushed to supply music for it. A surviving 78 rpm Edison disc recording of the piece carries matrix number 3339-C-25 and catalog number 50190, and was recorded using vertical-cut acoustic technology. A separate Edison Blue Amberol cylinder recording also exists, performed by the National Promenade Band and issued around 1915. The sheet music cover is illustrated by the artist known as Starmer, depicting a fox hunt scene with an inset photograph of Miss Sonia Baraban and Charles C. Grohs. Their presence on the cover was a marketing choice rooted in their celebrity as exhibition dancers. Sonia Baraban and Charles C. Grohs toured on the Keith vaudeville circuit in the 1910s, and they are known for introducing the Reuben Fox-trot to the public in 1914. They performed modern dances such as the foxtrot and appeared at venues including the Seattle Orpheum Theater in March 1915. Placing their photograph on sheet music covers was a common promotional practice of the era, linking a composition to recognizable performing personalities and lending it an air of fashionable credibility. Their image appears on at least one other fox trot publication from the same period as well. It is worth noting that different copies of the Meadowbrook Fox Trot sheet music appear to carry different cover photographs. At least one copy in the York University collection shows a photograph of Holton Herr and Janet McIlwaine rather than Baraban and Grohs, though the Starmer fox hunt illustration is consistent across versions. This reflects the common practice of publishers issuing multiple cover variants. As for Arthur M. Kraus himself, detailed biographical information about him is sparse in the historical record. His known recordings date only from 1914 to 1915, and his role in the Discography of American Historical Recordings is listed solely as composer. He is sometimes credited in collaboration with a co-writer named Hall. The piece was popular enough to be arranged for player piano rolls as well as recorded on cylinder and disc formats. Regarding Rector's and the Kraus' Society Orchestra, the picture here requires some caution because the documentary trail is thin. Rector's was a celebrated New York restaurant and cabaret on West 44th Street that was one of the central venues for the dance craze of the early 1910s. When the tango came to New York via Paris in 1912, cabarets and restaurants including Rector's introduced afternoon tango teas, and the venue became deeply associated with fashionable dancing. Rudolph Valentino himself worked as a dance partner at such tango teas, and in 1915 returned to Rector's in a vaudeville dance act. Dance orchestras were central to Rector's identity during this period, and a number of society orchestras played there across the years. By 1917, Earl Fuller led a society dance band at Rector's called Earl Fuller's Rector Novelty Orchestra, which gives a sense of the venue's musical prestige and the style of ensemble associated with it. The specific ensemble name "Kraus' Society Orchestra" does appear in Edison-era catalogues of the period, where the label "Society Orchestra" was commonly used for refined dance ensembles playing in hotel and restaurant settings rather than rough commercial venues.
