Die Geschichte der Gitarren Amps ist geprägt von bestimmten Epochen oder Modellen wie der Blackface-Ära oder der Plexi-Ära. Es gibt jedoch keine Ära die so ikonisch ist wie die Tweed-Amp-Ära der späten 50er und frühen 60er Jahre. Diese Verstärker wurden (und werden) für ihren wohlverdienten Ruf eines Weltklasse-Sounds und ihres einfachen Aufbaus hoch geschätzt. Sie wurden und werden in praktisch jedem Musikgenre verwendet und haben dazu beigetragen die charakteristischen Sounds und Stile vieler Gitarristen zu kreieren....tatsächlich kann man heutzutage kaum noch Musik hören ohne den Einfluss von Tweed-Verstärkern irgendwo im Mix zu hören....oder zumindest ein Tweed-Verstärkermodell. Koch Guitar Amplifiers möchte in Zusammenarbeit mit Greg Koch (nicht verwandt) den Little Gristle vorstellen! Diese mit Tweed überzogene Single 12? Combo hat die späten 50er Jahre ins Jahr 2023 gebracht...
Princeton University Press The Artist's Palette A1071371012
A beautifully illustrated look at the paints and palettes used by many of the world’s greatest artists from the sixteenth century to today What can the palette an artist used or depicted tell us about their artistic process, preferences, and finished works? From traditional wooden boards to paint pots, ceramic plates, and studio walls, these deceptively simple yet potent tools provide vital evidence. The Artist’s Palette presents fifty unique palettes alongside paintings by the celebrated artists who used them, gathering expert analysis of color, brushstroke, and technique to offer new histories of these artists and their work. Alexandra Loske pairs each artist’s color palette with one or more of their paintings, revealing how the artist used paints and pigments. While Georges Seurat meticulously arranged the paints on his palette in prismatic order, a pointillist technique reflected on his canvases, Kerry James Marshall uses blots of zinc white and smears of pale pink on the surfaces of symbolically oversized white palettes held by the Black artists in his portraits, raising provocative questions about the role of color in Black history and Western art. Through these and other compelling accounts, Loske shows how, behind every great painting, there is a palette that tells its story. Featuring a wealth of original photographs of palettes, paints, and pigments of all kinds, The Artist’s Palette takes readers into the studios of artists from Artemisia Gentileschi, Rembrandt, Paul Cézanne, Vincent van Gogh and John Singer Sargent to Egon Schiele, Georgia O’Keeffe; Helen Frankenthaler, Lucian Freud, and Keith Haring, revealing how the materials and tools they used hide secrets and are often reflections of the life and times of the artist who once held, prepared, and used them.

Nutzen Sie es für tägliche Inspirationen, kreative Übungen und Praktiken, für den persönlichen Gebrauch und in Workshops.

Die Autorin Elke Scholz über ihr Buch: "Ich glaube, dass jeder Mensch einen Reichtum an Kreativität in sich trägt, der dazu beiträgt, dass er seine Träume verwirklichen kann. Die Kreativität ist in uns und wartet darauf, erkannt zu werden. Mit der Klarheit von Geist, Körper und Seele kommt das Vertrauen, diese Möglichkeiten zu nutzen. In diesem Buch geht es nicht darum, das eigene Selbst zu reparieren oder zu verändern, sondern vielmehr darum, wie Sie durch Kreativität und Neugierde Ihr Bewusstsein für sich selbst und Ihre Umgebung erweitern und Ihr Leben in Fülle leben können. Von Wayan Karja, Bali: "Elkes Buch ist ein kluger Leitfaden, um das beste Leben intuitiv, kreativ und mit einem gesunden Geist zu leben. Es bildet einen Brückenschlag zwischen östlicher und westlicher Kultur, der sehr klar dargelegt ist." Von Thomas Gokey, außerordentlicher Professor für Kunst an der Syracuse University, New York: "Kreativität ist eine Gewohnheit, eine Art zu lernen, das zu sehen, was tatsächlich da ist, die Außerordentlichkeit und die Wunder des Lebens zu bemerken, während man es tatsächlich lebt. Nachdem sie jahrelang ihre Fähigkeit verfeinert hat bietet Elke Scholz mit diesem Buch eine Anleitung zur Aufmerksamkeit in der Praxis des kreativen Lebens. Alle, die Augen haben, können sehen lernen, alle, die Ohren haben, können hören lernen. Die Welt ist in Aufruhr und wirbelt um uns herum. Elke Scholz wird uns lehren, wie wir diese Welt bestaunen und letztlich in ihr leben können." Von Lisa Herman, Ph.D., MFT, registrierte Expressive Arts Therapeutin, Direktorin Creative Expression, Sofia University, Palo Alto, Kalifornien: "Elke Scholz ist eine mutige Frau, die durch die Entfaltung ihres eigenen Lebens gelernt hat, sich mit einer schwierigen Erfahrung auseinanderzusetzen und diese Erfahrung durch die Kunst festzuhalten. Seit der ersten Ausgabe dieses Buches hat sich Elke weiter damit auseinandergesetzt, wie man "im Sumpf sitzt" und sich durch die dunklen Orte bewegt, ohne zu wissen, was auf einen zukommt. Durch eine Kombination aus Meditationsübungen, Worten der Weisheit und leicht nachvollziehbaren Prozessen wird die Leserschaft unerwartete Wege finden, ihr eigenes kreatives Potenzial zu steigern, um in die Fülle des Lebens zu gelangen. Explore your creative mindfulness in this expressive arts book! Use it for daily inspirations, creative exercise & practices, for personal use and in workshops. It is a fun, refreshing practical approach for well-being. In the words of Elke Scholz: I believe that each person has a wealth of creativity that leads to the ability to achieve his or her dreams. It is within us, waiting to be recognized. With clarity of mind, body, and spirit comes the confidence to access all possibilities. This book is not about fixing or changing who you are but rather about how through creativity and curiosity you can increase your awareness of self and your surroundings and fully live your life.

“This book has been around for a long time, and I hope it sticks around forever. It guides the reader through a fascinating (and fun) 12-week-long program of exercises and explorations that help loosen up one’s artistic self. It takes you on a journey that will cost you nothing (aside from the guidebook) and it brings much insight, gently helping you see what is holding you back, and showing you how to move forward. Three times in the last decade I've committed to doing The Artist's Way's program, and each time I've learned something important and surprising about myself and my work. Just to show how influential it's been to me—the first time I did the program, I had decided by end of it that I wanted to 1) travel to Italy and learn Italian, 2) Go to an Ashram in India, and 3) Return to Indonesia to study with the old medicine man I'd once met there. We all know what THAT decision led to. . . Without The Artist's Way, there would have been no Eat, Pray, Love.” —Elizabeth Gilbert “ THE ARTIST’S WAY by Julia Cameron is not exclusively about writing—it is about discovering and developing the artist within whether a painter, poet, screenwriter or musician—but it is a lot about writing. If you have always wanted to pursue a creative dream, have always wanted to play and create with words or paints, this book will gently get you started and help you learn all kinds of paying-attention techniques; and that, after all, is what being an artist is all about. It’s about learning to pay attention.” --Anne Lamott, Mademoiselle “The premise of the book is that creativity and spirituality are the same thing, they come from the same place. And we were created to use this life to express our individuality, and that over the course of a lifetime that gets beaten out of us. [ THE ARTIST’S WAY ] helped me put aside my fear and not worry about whether the record would be commercial.” --Grammy award-winning singer Kathy Mattea “Julia Cameron brings creativity and spirituality together with the same kind of step-by-step wisdom that Edgar Cayce encouraged. The result is spiritual creativity as a consistent and nourishing part of daily life.” --Venture Inward “I never knew I was a visual artist until I read Julia Cameron’s THE ARTIST’S WAY .” --Jannene Behl in Artist’s Magazine “Julia Cameron’s landmark book THE ARTIST’S WAY helped me figure out who I really was as an adult, not so much as an artist but as a person. And award-winning journalist and poet, Cameron’s genius is that she doesn’t tell readers what they should do to achieve or who they should be—instead she creates a map for readers to start exploring these questions themselves.” --Michael F. Melcher, Law Practice magazine “This is not a self-help book in the normative sense. It is simply a powerful book that can challenge one to move into an entirely different state of personal expression and growth.” --Nick Maddox, Deland Beacon “ THE ARTIST’S WAY (with its companion volume THE ARTIST’S WAY MORNING PAGES JOURNAL ) becomes a friend over time, not just a journal. Like a journal, it provokes spontaneous insights and solutions; beyond journaling, it establishes a process that is interactive and dynamic.” --Theresa L. Crenshaw, M.D., San Diego Union-Tribune “If you really want to supercharge your writing, I recommend that you get a copy of Julia Cameron’s book THE ARTIST’S WAY . I’m not a big fan of self-help books, but this book has changed my life for the better and restored my previously lagging creativity.” --Jeffrey Bairstow, Laser Focus World “Working with the principle that creative expression is the natural direction of life, Cameron developed a three month program to recover creativity. THE ARTIST’S WAY shows how to tap into the higher power that connects human creativity and the creative energies of the universe.” --Mike Gossie, Scottsdale Tribune “ THE ARTIST’S WAY is the seminal book on the subject of creativity and an invaluable guide to living the artistic life.
