The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time - Mark Haddon

Just watched this play in theater. A recording of the play. Very clever. Great acting. Humor and sincere to tell a story from the point of view of an autistic boy. 

 

Very enjoyable. 

 

The story, as told from the boy point is view, is really difficult to pull off. So I'm amazed that they did such a great job.


Exceptionally clever use of lighting. 

 

The actor is fantastic.

Hypermodern Times - Gilles Lipovetski,Andrew Brown,Sebastein Charles

"The hypercontemporary individual is more autonomous but also more fragile than ever, in proportion as the promises and demands that define him become ever vaster and more massive. Freedom, comfort, quality of life and higher life expectations do not blunt the tragedy of existence; they merely make its scandal crueller." 

This week's book is Hypermodern Times by Gilles Lipovetsky. Do you recognize yourself as a hypermodern individual?

Performance Art: From Futurism to the Present (World of Art) - Roselee Goldberg

It's Tuesday, and as promised, here is a new book video! Today's book is Performance Art - From Futurism to the Present (1988) by Roselee Goldberg. It is a general introduction to the (often wacky) world of Performance Art, which is arguably one of the most loved and hated art forms ever. Have you ever been curious to understand artists like Marina Abramovic and Yoko Ono? This book is a good place to start!

The Doors of Perception/Heaven and Hell - Aldous Huxley

Hello there Booklikers! I decided to start a new vlog dedicated to books. I am an eclectic reader, so I thought it would be a good idea to share a "reading list" of books that are interesting for art geeks, even if they're not necessarily about art.

 

The first book to be featured is Aldous Huxley's "The Doors of Perception" (1954). I will publish a new reading vlog every two weeks.

 

Tell me what you think! And if you have a book vlog, send me the link, I would love to see it!
