Abstract

'Afrika - Encyclopedie van een wonderbaarlijk continent' is een beeldschoon informatief kinderboek over alle verschillende culturen, geschiedenissen en helden uit de landen in Afrika. Het werelddeel bestaat uit wel 54 landen, maar toch wordt er vaak over Afrika gepraat als één groot geheel. Dit prachtig geïllustreerde boek biedt een eerste kennismaking met de verschillende landen van dit bijzondere continent. Van de woestijnen tot de jungles, van de bruisende steden tot de uitgestrekte vlakten, van de eerste mensen op aarde tot de wereldveranderaars van nu: het is hoog tijd om het continent beter te leren kennen. En dit boek is een goed begin!Geschreven en geïllustreerd als een kleurrijke ode aan de diversiteit die landen in Afrika te bieden hebben. https://gottmerkinderboeken.nl/product/afrika/#:~:text=%27Afrika%20%2D%20Encyclopedie%20van%20een%20wonderbaarlijk,gepraat%20als%20%C3%A9%C3%A9n%20groot%20geheel.

Abstract

Armed with pencil, eraser and breaker knife, Fabrice Souvereyns (°1995 Tongeren) creates a detailed world from intense observations and perceptions. Souvereyns’s young oeuvre draws inspiration from the physical world, from fauna and flora and from what is visible to humankind in the skies. In addition, more ‘invisible’ themes also play a substantial role in the work. The influence of, for example, science cannot be denied, while art history also serves as inspiration for the artist’s eccentric plant world. Vegetal scenes in art reflect how humans relate to subjects such as nature, religion, philosophy or science at the time. Souvereyns makes use of this frame of reference but also leaves room for his personal formal language. As a result, a certain universality and restraint always hangs around his drawings: although they are based on centuries-old natural landscapes, we cannot exactly find them in reality. The line between reality and the (sub)consciousness blurs. While working, he is guided by spontaneity yet the drawings are not simply the result of automatism. Each movement, whether adding or omitting, leaves a unique trace, and is a deliberate choice by the artist.

Abstract

As the world races to address the climate crisis, new sustainable energy sources and other infrastructures are transforming our visual landscapes and changing the way we live. Land Art and Climate Action: Designing the 21st Century City Park highlights regenerative artworks that respond to this pivotal moment in human history and inspire viewers to embrace the beauty, abundance, and cultural vibrancy of a world that has left fossil fuels behind. Featuring three hundred color images, the book includes essays by Robert Ferry, Peter Kurz, Elizabeth Monoian, Alessandra Scognamiglio, and Sven Stremke to bring attention to design projects and landscape architecture where environmentalism is part of the concept, not an afterthought.
