Hailed the "Prince of the Impressionists", <strong>Claude Monet </strong>(1840-1926) transformed expectations for the purpose of paint on canvas. Defying the precedent of centuries, Monet did not seek to render only reality, but <strong>the act of perception itself.</strong> Working "en plein air" with rapid, impetuous brush strokes, he interrogated the play of light on the hues, patterns, and contours and the way in which these visual impressions fall upon the eye.<br/><br/> Monet's interest in this space "between the motif and the artist" encompassed too the <strong>ephemeral nature </strong>of each image we see. In his beloved <strong>water lily series</strong>, as well as in paintings of <strong>poplars, grain stacks, </strong>and the<strong> Rouen cathedral</strong>, he returned to the same motif in different seasons, different weather conditions, and at different times of the day, to explore the constant mutability of our visual environment.<br/><br/> This book offers the essential introduction to an artist whose works simultaneously reflected upon the purpose of a picture and the passage of time, and in so doing transformed irrevocably the story of art.

Det vansinniga, hämningslösa och överbriljanta Freak Kitchen är alla framåtsträvande rockmusikers förebilder. Här kommer den första officiella biografin! Vad är egentligen Freak Kitchen och varifrån kommer de? Frågorna infinner sig snabbt när man hör bandets märkliga hårdrock. Texterna är samhällskritiska, nutidsanalytiska och humoristiskt satiriska. Musiken är ekvilibristisk i världsklass och lånar influenser på ett sätt som inte gjorts sedan Frank Zappa vandrade på vår jord. Bakom mycket av gruppens framgångar står naturligtvis Mattias IA Eklund, gitarristen och frontfiguren som gett begreppet gå sin egen väg en helt ny innebörd. Men ingenting sker utan hela bandet, och i Åsa Anastasia Jonséns massiva biografi får vi följa bandet genom tillblivelse, upplösning och ombildning fram till dags dato.
