At the end of the Cold War, the Balkan states of South East Europe were in crisis. They had emerged from two decades of hardline communism with their economies in disarray and authoritarian leaders poised to whip up nationalist feelings so as to cling on to power. The break up of Yugoslavia followed in 1991 along with prolonged instability in Romania, Bulgaria and Albania. The Balkans After The Cold War analyzes these turbulent events, which led to violence on a scale not seen in Europe for nearly 50 years and offers a detailed critique of Western policy towards the region. This volume follows on from the recently published Outcast Europe: The Balkans, 1789 - 1989 - from the Ottomans to Milosevic, also by Tom Gallagher.

Born in Italy, the first avant-garde of the twentieth century - before Cubism, Dadaism and Surrealism -, Futurism is a major landmark in the history of art and of modern thought. Rather than a school of painting or literature, it was a revolutionary movement whose aim was to create a new awareness and a new approach to the world in general and to art in particular. It embodied the determination to perpetually regenerate man confronted with the progress of technology (electricity, mechanization, telecommunication ...). The Futurists' challenge was to combine all the aspects of modernism within aesthetic creation, re-considering them both in a single dynamic sweep. Ranging from plastic arts to culinary arts, they gave birth to amazing works that would become references for the following avant-gardes, and today, a legacy claimed by many artists. In this reference summing-up, the author reviews the different aesthetic stages of the movement, from "plastic dynamism" in the 1910s to aeropainting in the 1930s, and examines the relationship, long the object of controversy, between the movement and the Italian Fascist government.

In de zomer van 2008 hoorde Martin Bril dat hij kanker had. Met de energie die bij hem hoorde, ging hij gewoon door met zijn dagelijkse column in "de Volkskrant", zijn tv-optredens en zijn boeken, die steeds hogere oplagen behaalden. Nederland leefde mee met Bril, die af en toe verslag deed van zijn toestand. Soms indringend of ernstig. Soms melancholiek. Vaker met humor. Maar altijd vol met zijn meesterlijke observaties van de mensen en dingen die op zijn pad bleven komen, ook in het ziekenhuis of tijdens het lezen van een bijsluiter. "Het evenwicht" is het unieke, hoogstpersoonlijke verslag van Brills ziekte. Een literair document van grote waarde.

In the past 25 years, Peter Powning has earned respect among connoisseurs of fine craft as one of Canada's most innovative ceramists. Many people recognize his distinctive and commercially successful raku pottery, but few realize that he is also a sculptor with an international reputation. Gloria Hickey has curated the first national solo exhibition of Powning's sculpture for the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery, and Peter Powning: Elemental Clay and Glass documents this exhibition with 40 colour and 12 black and white photographs. Powning has exhibited his clay, glass and bronze works in over 60 galleries in the Canada, the US, Germany, Scandinavia, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, China and Japan. He has brought home international honours from the Fletcher juried competition in Australia and the Mino International Ceramics Competition and the Kanazawa International Exhibition of Glass in Japan. In New Brunswick, he won the 1991 Deichmann Award for Excellence in Craft and the 1993 Strathbutler Award. Gloria Hickey's curatorial essay tells how and why Powning made the pieces in the exhibition. Candid yet sensitive, it assesses Powning's importance among Canadian ceramists and glass artists, and it interprets the interests and values that permeate not only his pottery and sculpture, but his personal life as well. Peter Powning's studio is at Markhamville, near Sussex, New Brunswick. He has served on the New Brunswick Arts Board, the Premier's Advisory Council on the Arts, and the New Brunswick Craft Council, and he has been a visiting artist at the Banff Centre. Gloria Hickey, a St. John's writer and curator, twice won the Betty Park Award of Merit for her contributions to criticalwriting about craft in North America. In 1994 she was nominated for the Imperial Oil Award Excellence in Arts Journalism.
