![]() ![]() Carrie Mae Weems and Laura Letinsky are two contemporary artists included in Modern Women/Modern Vision that use this space as a stage to explore ideas, emotions, and aspects of the human experience. A home is both a physical and emotional space-it serves our daily needs, houses our possessions, hosts our loved ones, and, no doubt, is witness to many emotions. Many of us have spent much more time than usual in our homes these past two years and possibly understand the role it plays in our lives better than ever. ![]() The immediacy of photography enables the possibility of capturing a spontaneous, fleeting moment but, several photographers in this section of the show push against that inherent characteristic of the medium and instead carefully construct scenes for the camera. The final section of the exhibition explores work from the 1980s onward. Modern Women/Modern Vision: Works from the Bank of America Collection, on view at the DAM through August 28, spotlights women photographers from approximately the past 100 years, highlighting photographs by over 50 artists that represent a range of approaches to the medium. ![]()

Yet in today’s journals, the topic is nearly forgotten, and few students seek out courses in the subject. During the time of Alfred Marshall, for instance, no scholar could be considered respectable without demonstrating a reasonable understanding of earlier writings. It has attracted great scholars, including Schumpeter, Viner, and Robbins, among many others.

This Present Darkness was first published in 1986. It has since sold over 2 million copies worldwide, sparking a renewed interest in the concept of spiritual warfare.

These are cautionary tales for dangerous times. We lapped up The Handmaid’s Tale, Black Mirror and Blade Runner 2049 with gleeful horror. Our concern shot Orwell’s novel to the top of Amazon’s chart. We took to the streets - or rather Twitter - crying, ‘It’s just like 1984!’ Dystopia had made a comeback. When the West’s Days of Reckoning came in 2016, we naturally turned to George Orwell, master of modern dystopia, to make sense of Trump, Brexit and the return of the far-right in Europe. ![]() ![]() ![]() The Marrok says that his enforcer is flying from Montana to O’Hare. ![]() He was in a cage her pack’s Alpha keeps for confining new werewolves.

Cooper's status as the first major American novelist is somewhat complicated by the fact that his most famous books, the Leatherstocking novels, including The Last of the Mohicans and The Deerslayer, have many Native American characters, and, while his portrayals are arguably less racist than those of his contemporaries, they are still wildly dated and deeply uncomfortable for contemporary readers. Cooper is no longer in vogue, but in his own time, he was widely considered a great American novelist and his work was praised by writers such as Victor Hugo and D. ![]() ![]() The Last of the Mohicans, published in 1826 and set in 1757, is the most famous and critically acclaimed novel by James Fenimore Cooper. ![]() ![]() ![]() “Trauma people” - those overly attached to their victimhood and who “act retraumatized” when asked to let it go - “are almost as unbearable as Trump people.” It’s not that Big Swiss is unsympathetic (“Yes, what happened to you is shitty, I’m not denying that”) but rather that she’s intensely pragmatic (“Why do you keep rolling around in your own shit?”). ![]() “I’m not one of those trauma people,” Big Swiss declares. ![]() She was also nearly beaten to death several years ago by a man who will soon get out of prison, but she’s not here to talk about that.
