Spinning: Nature, Culture and the Spiritual in the Work of John Newling

Richard Davey
4.9/5 (30358 ratings)
Description:About the Book A 140 page book that looks at the work of John Newling over four decades. The book includes 175 images including rarely seen work and documentation of early practice. Throughout John Newling’s career he has found intriguing ways to engage with members of the public, selling them insurance against loss of mystery, turning their wishes into a bolus on an ancient tree and given away toys and gardening tools on Lincoln High Street. He has made work on a canal path in Stoke-on-Trent, filled the Chapter House of Canterbury Cathedral with wooden lecterns, and stood on Euston Road asking passers-by what makes them happy. This book is the first substantial overview of these mysterious, intriguing, and often beautiful works. Fully illustrated in colour throughout, it explores the major themes that have underpinned Newling’s extensive output. Individual sections on Cathedrals, Pilgrimage, Nature, Biocity, Spinning, Wishes, Human loneliness, Love and the desire to go To Infinity and Beyond provide insights into his on-going project to understand the world around him. Here is a unique chance to discover the connection between nature, human culture and spirituality that lies at the heart of Newling’s work, and to hear his very relevant call for human beings to live closer to nature’s spinning core. About the Author Richard Davey's research focuses on the way in which faith, as a distinctive and counter-cultural world-view, is embodied and materialised within works of art. This has led to an interest in themes such as wonder, mystery, liminality, the sublime, beauty, colour, and sacred spaces and landscapes, and their rediscovery as vehicle of spiritual encounter, and valid academic discussion.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
