Russian Modernism maps the Russian version of expressionism and puts it in the context of the history of 20th century art. Russian Modernism is dedicated to the radical modernist movements in Russian and German art during the early years of the 20th century. Their development was parallel and often intertwined. Artists such as Vasily Kandinsky or Alexej von Jawlensky are claimed by the Germans but remain Russian artists for the Russians. The Burluk brothers, who became celebrities of the Russian radical art scene, participated in the first exhibition of the Blauer Reiter. Russian artists travelled to Germany and lived there, while their German counterparts were aware of what was shown in Moscow exhibition halls. The diverse art movement 'expressionism' was formed in Germany at the beginning of the 1910s and was given the name by the critic Herwarth Walden. Members of groups such as Die Brucke and the Blauer Reiter were initially influenced by the French Fauves movement, and their Russian contemporaries also tried to find new artistic truth in Paris, 'la Ville Lumiere'. However, both in Germany and Russia the new French influence underwent radical transformation. Beautifully illustrated and designed, this book provides an insight into the work of Russian and German artists in the early years of the 20th century." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: A comedy of errors: Russian cubo-futurism as an example of creative misunderstanding, by Konstantin Akinsha; From the jack of diamonds to the donkey's tail: Russian modernism between cubism and primitivism, by Natalia Murray; The Russian oeuvres of Natalia Goncharova and Mikhail Larionov, by Jane Sharp; Russian artists in Munich and the Russian participation in Der Blaue Reiter, by Vivian Endicott Barnett; Three Russian pioneers of abstract art: Vasily Kandinsky, Mikhail Larionov, and Kazimir Malevich, by Aleksandra Shatskikh.

Hardcover. Etat : New. iv, 312 pages : illustrations (some colour), charts, maps ; 29 cm. The Edwards aquifer system is one of the great karstic aquifer systems of the world. It supplies water for more than 2 million people and for agricultural, municipal, industrial, and recreational uses. The Edwards (Balcones Fault Zone) Aquifer in the San Antonio, Texas, area was the first to be designated a sole source aquifer by the Environmental Protection Agency in 1975. The Edwards Aquifer also hosts unique groundwater, cave, and spring ecosystems. This 27-chapter memoir reviews the current state of knowledge, current and emerging challenges to wise use of the aquifer system, and some of the technologies that must be adopted to address these challenges.
