Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. This text uncovers the world of the Arts Council. Since this pioneering outfit was set up as an emergency measure in World War II, it has grown to become the chief means by which artists and producers receive the cash of taxpayers in return for creating work for the public's benefit. Most of the #3.6 billion the Council has spent to date has gone to the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden. The author explains why, in his opinion, the Arts Council can never say No to the opera house, despite its inglorious record. He goes on to examine the Council's public humiliations - including the orchestra fiasco of 1993 - the lottery handouts, the theatre cuts, and the tussles with Westminster and Whitehall. The interviews with artists, advisors and members of staff include discussions with Lord Rees-Mogg, Richard Hoggart, Sir Alec Guinness and Melvyn Bragg. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Nico was revered as the most beautiful creature who ever lived. She was Andy Warhols femme fatale and the High Preistess of Weird, yet few knew her real name or her wretched origins. When she called herself a Nazi anarchist junkie, they thought she was joking.Bob Dylan wrote a song about her, Jim Morrison a poem, Jean Baudrillard an essay, Andy Warhol a film, Ernest Hemingway a story yet she fought against the idolatry of men to assert her independence as a composer of dissident songs.Nicos contribution as an artist (17 films and 7 LPs) was smothered by gossip of her alleged affairs with men and women, whether Jimi Hendrix or Jeanne Moreau, Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones or Coco Chanel.She drifted through society like a phantom. Each era celebrated a different Nico the top covergirl of the Fifties, the Siren of the Sixties (as The Times acclaimed her), the Moon Goddess of the Seventies, and the High Priestess of Punk when rock stars like Siouxsie Sioux and Pattie Smith acknowledged her pre-eminence. Ironically, they did so at the lowest point in her life. For behind the Garbo-esque veneer lived a lonely woman trying to stand autonomous in a fast-changing world, seeking to survive her heroin addiction and to cope with her tormented mother and her troubled son, his existence denied by his film-star father.In this pioneer biography, which Nico asked the author to write shortly before her outlandish death in 1988, Richard Witts uncovers the reasons for her subterfuge, and examines the facts surrounding her encounters with terrorist Andreas Baader, the Black Panthers, and the Society for Cutting Up Men. Exclusive contributions from artists such as Jackson Browne, Iggy Pop, Viva, John Cale, David Bailey, Siouxsie Sioux and many others including her relatives, friends and enemies make this the definitive biography of an icon who was not only a testament to an era but hitherto unrecognised influence on popular music and style. This is the biography of Nico, the cover girl of the fifties, siren of the sixties and the female face of punk in the eighties. Written shortly before her death, it explores her fight to assert her independence as a performer, her tormented mother and troubled son.
