At the Well , produced to coincide with an exhibition of Neo Rauch's (born 1960) new works at David Zwirner in New York, brings together both small- and large-format paintings that expand the artist's unique iconography of eccentric figures, animals and hybrids within vaguely familiar but imaginary settings. This oversized catalogue―designed in close collaboration with the artist―is anchored by 16 stunning plates and numerous 1:1 details that give viewers intimate access to these compelling compositions. Themes of rebirth and new beginnings Rauch consistently creates characters who appear to be in the process of transformation. At the Well features an essay by art historian and curator Sir Norman Rosenthal, who presents a careful reading of Rauch's new work. The book also includes a reprint of the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale "The Young Giant," specifically chosen by Rosenthal to further expand his analysis.

Georg Baselitz gehört zu den bedeutendsten deutschen Künstlern der Nachkriegszeit, der auch international hoch geschätzt wird. Er ist bekannt für sein expressives und provokantes Werk, das jedoch auf herausfordernden konzeptuellen Überlegungen basiert, die man durch die Schriften und eigenen Aussagen des Künstlers am besten versteht. Neben seinen Formulierungen einer höchst individuellen Ästhetik bilden Baselitz’ Reflexionen über Kunst und Gesellschaft, seine deutsche Identität und die Wechselwirkung zwischen Autobiografie und Geschichte die Basis dieser repräsentativen Schriftenauswahl. Der Band vereint zwei verschiedene Texttypen: Zum einen Baselitz’ eigene Schriften, die Absichtserklärungen beinhalten ebenso wie Fragmente über Einflüsse, Inspirationen und öffentliche Reden. Zum anderen ermöglichen Interviews mit Kritikern und Kunsthistorikern einen direkten Zugang zur Gedankenwelt dieses ungewöhnlichen, kreativen Geistes. Die Interviews schlagen einen weiten Bogen und reichen vom detaillierten Gedankenaustausch über bestimmte Werke bis zu Grundlagendiskussionen über Kunst. Der Leser erhält durch diese Zusammen-schau verschiedenster Texte aus unterschiedlichen Jahrzehnten einen intimen Einblick in die Beziehung des Malers zu seinem Œuvre.

Presents information on seasonal affective disorder, describing it causes, symptoms, and such treatment options as light therapy, medication, psychotherapy, exercise, and meditation.

Rosenthal, who first described Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and is the foremost authority on the subject, offers an up to date guide to overcoming the miseries and that millions experience with the changing seasons. In his lively style, Rosenthal offers advice on how to identify, treat and overcome both winter and summer varieties of seasonal affective disorder, as well as the less severe yet bothersome winter blues.

Adversity is an irreducible fact of life. Although we can and should learn from all experiences, both positive and negative, bestselling author Dr. Norman E. Rosenthal, believes that adversity is by far the best teacher most of us will ever encounter. Running counter to society's current prevailing message that 'excellence' must always be aspired to, and failure or mistakes of any sort are to be avoided at all costs, Rosenthal shows that engaging with our own failures and defeats is one of the only ways we are able to live authentic and meaningful lives, and that each different type of adversity carries its own challenges and has the potential to yield its own form of wisdom. Using stories from his own life including his childhood in apartheid-era South Africa, his years after suffering a violent attack from a stranger, and his career as a psychiatrist as well as case studies and discussions with well-known figures like Viktor Frankl and David Lynch, Rosenthal shows that true innovation, emotional resilience, wisdom, and dignity can only come from confronting and understanding the adversity we have experienced

Demystifies the practice and benefits of Transcendental Meditation for general audience who may have heard about the method but do not necessarily know what it is, how it is learned, or what they stand to gain, physically and emotionally, from achieving transcendence.
