Fred Licht, Nicholas Fox Weber, "Josef Albers: Glass, Color, and Light" English | 1994 | ISBN: 0810968649 | PDF | pages: 160 | 6.4 mb As a master at Germany's Bauhaus until 1933, and then as a professor in American schools such as Black Mountain College and Yale University, Josef Albers (1888-1976) influenced scores of young artists. His Homage to the Square series of paintings remains a touchstone of twentieth-century art. Yet Albers's first great works of art - the glass pictures that he made in Germany starting in 1921 - remain little known. First using found fragments of colored glass, and then employing a sophisticated sandblasting process on glass, Albers created a new art form as spectacular in its mastery of color and light as it was inherently fragile.

Braggs 2016 | 280 Pages | ISBN: 0520279344 | PDF | 3 MB At the close of the Second World War, waves of African American musicians migrated to Paris, eager to thrive in its reinvigorated jazz scene. Jazz Diasporas challenges the notion that Paris was a color-blind paradise for African Americans. On the contrary, musicians adopted a variety of strategies to cope with the cultural and social assumptions that confronted them throughout their careers in Paris, particularly as France became embroiled in struggles over race and identity when colonial conflicts like the Algerian War escalated. Using case studies of prominent musicians and thoughtful analysis of interviews, music, film, and literature, Rashida K. Braggs investigates the impact of this postwar musical migration. She examines key figures including musicians Sidney Bechet, Inez Cavanaugh, and Kenny Clarke and writer and social critic James Baldwin to show how they performed both as artists and as African Americans. Their collaborations with French musicians and critics complicated racial and cultural understandings of who could represent "authentic" jazz and created spaces for shifting racial and national identities-what Braggs terms "jazz diasporas."
