View Rights PortalCambeva's workshop is the first of four books of the collection "Presente de Vô" in partnership with Grupo Ponto de Partida. The book is a mixture of colours and elements that highlight the memory of the world, in which seekers of memories have the mission of bringing light and life to objects found in the travels of two characters: Zalém and Calunga. Cambeva is a restorer who, when the world lost its embrace, tried to reinvent it; he is the grandfather who mends dreams, forgotten things and lost emotions, to whom the seekers ask for help to fix something. In a magical universe, full of children, grandchildren, stories and memories of his lineage of restorers, when faced with this request for restoration, he makes room to bring back an emblematic figure who can no longer sing. A story about memories, care and affection...

Dass ein international berühmter und preisgekrönter Sachbuchautor und Romancier wie David Van Reybrouck sich der jahrtausendealten Form der Ode zuwendet, mag auf den ersten Blick erstaunen. Van Reybrouck verwandelt sich diese seit jeher für die rühmende Hinwendung zu Menschen und Dingen bestimmte Form auf seine eigene, sehr persönliche Weise an: Seit 2015 schreibt er in dem unabhängigen niederländischen online-Magazin The Correspondent regelmäßig emphatische Würdigungen von Menschen, Dingen, aber auch ganz alltäglichen Vorgängen: der Ex, der nächtlichen Autofahrt, dem Offline-Sein, David Bowie, Kunstwerken, Menschen, denen er auf seinen Reisen begegnet ist oder die ihn geprägt haben. Hier werden sie erstmals in Buchform veröffentlicht. Offen und neugierig auf das Leben in all seinen Erscheinungsformen zeigt David Van Reybrouck hier mehr noch als in seinen anderen Büchern seine sinnliche, verletzliche, dichterische Seite. Er tritt auf als Abenteurer, Liebhaber, Freund, als engagierter Europäer und Streiter für Demokratie, Solidarität und Menschlichkeit. Und als leidenschaftlicher Bewunderer und genauer Beobachter. Nicht nur in der Van-Reybrouck-Gemeinde sind diese Oden Kult. »Oden schreiben – ich kann es nur empfehlen: Es macht einen aufmerksamer, begeisterungsfähiger, neugieriger, dankbarer.«
Schon als Kind gab es für Isabelle Van Groeningen nichts Schöneres, als mit den Händen in der Erde zu wühlen und sich am Grün und an wunderbaren Blüten zu erfreuen. Später machte sie ihre Leidenschaft zum Beruf und hat seither unzählige Gärten gestaltet und bepflanzt. In Die sieben Jahreszeiten – denn für Gärtner*innen gibt es mehr als vier – schreibt sie über das Glück und die Herausforderungen des Gärtnerns, über Fragen der Gestaltung ebenso wie die des richtigen Standorts, gibt wertvolle Hinweise zu Pflanzung und Pflege und stellt die wichtigsten Pflanzen vor, von Schattenstauden über Kletterrosen, Dahlien und Zwiebelblumen. Und sie erinnert uns daran, was das Wichtigste am Gärtnern ist: Ein Garten tut der Seele gut. Die sachkundige und passionierte Pflanzengestalterin Isabelle Van Groeningen führt uns durchs Jahr und durch ihre Gärten – ein Rundgang mit vielen Tipps und Lieblingspflanzen!

Four Saints in Three Acts by Gertrude Stein and Virgil Thomson was a major avant-garde phenomenon of the 1930s, an experimental opera that nonetheless achieved remarkable popular success. Photography was a key element of that success, but its complex roles in the construction, representation and dissemination of the opera have hitherto received little critical attention. The photographic recording of the all-African American cast in particular affords a unique insight into the complexities of Four Saints in relation to the Harlem Renaissance and the New York avant-gardes of the time. This book, published in collaboration with The Photographers' Gallery, London, presents a wide selection of photographs of the cast, performances, and other material - many images reproduced for the first time - alongside essays by an international range of scholars exploring different aspects of the opera, including dance, fashion, music, and avant-garde writing, as well as photography.
