Description
Minimalism and AfterIm Herbst 2000 wurde die Ausstellungsreihe Minimalism and After fr die Sammlung DaimlerChrysler als einer der Schwerpunkte der langfristigen Erwerbungsplanung konzipiert. Vorweggenommen war damit der Trend der Jahre 2004 05, in denen sich groe Museen dem Minimalismus und geometrisch konstruktiven Konzepten als einem wesentlichen, immer auch politisch motivierten Phnomen in Europa und den USA um 1960 widmeten.

Im Herbst 2000 wurde die Ausstellungsreihe Minimalism and After für die Sammlung DaimlerChrysler als einer der Schwerpunkte der langfristigen Erwerbungsplanung konzipiert. Vorweggenommen war damit der Trend der Jahre 2004/05, in denen sich große Museen dem Minimalismus und geometrisch-konstruktiven Konzepten als einem wesentlichen, immer auch politisch motivierten Phänomen in Europa und den USA um 1960 widmeten.Ausgangsgedanke von Minimalism and After ist es, formal reduzierte Bildkonzepte und geometrische Abstraktion als eigenständige künstlerische Phänomene neben der klassischen Minimal Art zu positionieren und dabei europäische und amerikanische Entwicklungen nicht länger streng getrennt zu betrachten. So ist eine Wirkungsgeschichte neu zu entdecken, die in der »Emigration« von Bauhaus und Konstruktivismus in den 1930er-Jahren und deren Rezeption in den USA ihren Ausgang nimmt und bis in die internationale zeitgenössische Kunst führt.
Der Band stellt rund 270 Werke von 148 Künstlern in substanziellen Werkmonografien vor, ergänzt um Essays, die die nationalen und stilistischen Charakteristika zusammenfassen.

It was alright
Format: Kindle
Pervious to this book, I had no knowledge of the struggles of the Chinese in the South during the post Civil War era. For that reason, I'm glad I read this book.
I enjoyed that this book discussed and gave perspective on many social issues of that time.
The main character is spunky and likable.
There are many unbelievable scenes and conversations that I did not enjoy because they seemed too far-fetched. Why the author had to include a description of a naked man was also not to my liking. Worst of all, though, was the incredible number of similes in this book. There were just too many, and it got annoying.
Overall, it was good enough to read, but I do not highly recommend it.

A Chinese in Atlanta
Format: Kindle
The Girl Downstairs was a charming book. Although the writing isn’t particularly sophisticated, it felt like Jo was letting us peek into the pages of her diary—raw, honest, and deeply personal. Her journey, as the main character, was both heartwarming and heartbreaking. Through her eyes, we witness the simple beauty of connection and the ugly truth of prejudice that has plagued our country for far too long. It’s a powerful reminder that humanity should never be measured by the color of one’s skin. This is another great YA read—I highly recommend it.

Atlanta During the 1890's
Format: Paperback
Whether you like The Downstairs Girl or not depends on what you crave. If you crave historical fiction that will teach you, or that helps you realize the myriad of things that were going on in a certian place and time (Atlanta during the 1890s, or an imaginative author who never use trite metaphors or similes, you will love this book. Or if you want to quickly turn pages, you will be disappointed. If you want a simple plot, do not read this book. If you want an intricately spun story with plenty of mystrey, humor and many surprises, you will love it.
Jo Kuan is a Chinese American without voting rights, deStined to be a servang and doesn;t knw who her mother or father are, lives in a basement of a family with Old Gin who she thinks of as old man who adopted not offically but out of love. Chinese Americans were brought into the South after the Civil War to take over what slaves used to do but instead of no pay, they got tiny pay. You could walk or take a streetcar to work. Blacks sat the back of the streetcars, but if you were Chinese American, you didn't know where you sat or were told to gat off. They could not own or rent, where were you supposed to live; It was the start of Jim Crow laws and of cocoa cola. Women suffragettes started working towards the vote of white women. This was not a quiet oeriod of history.
I thoroughly enjoyed this peak at Atlanta in the 1890's through an Asian American young woman's eyes, ears and even her nose.
