Blazing impasto riverfront cityscape, executed with a palette knife in a naïve style and fiery autumn colors, by German-born, eastern Pennsylvania artist CHRISTINE BARTH (1920–1992). Barth’s standing practice was to sign her work “C. Kavon”—using her first initial and the ananym of her maiden name, Novak. (Many thanks to the grandson who contacted us online to provide this detail.) Oil on canvas. The frame shows separation at the mitered corners and light staining to the linen liner. Priced “as is.”


CHRISTINE BARTH (1920–1992) emigrated to the US with a toddler son in her early thirties in 1954, having survived the Allied bombing of Hamburg during WWII in which much of her family was lost. A preference for the palette knife had emerged during studies at the University of Fine Arts of Hamburg (HFBK). She maintained a studio at her new home in eastern Pennsylvania and frequently sold work through NYC galleries.

An excellent book...a must read!
Format: Paperback
Ruthie Gilmore's examination of California's prison-industrial complex paints a sobering portrait of the effects of the state's post-industrial decline in the past quarter century. Supplemented by numerous charts, maps, and statistics, Gilmore argues that the massive prison-building project that began in the early 1980s was rooted in earlier developments, namely the failure of the "welfare-warfare state" to absorb the numerous surpluses created by political and economic restructuring. Combining theory and historical-sociological analysis, this highly readable book is at once depressing and optimistic; it lays out the facts and guidelines for pursuing meaningful, antiracist struggles against the systemic dehumanization of immigrants, low-wage workers, and youths of color that continues to characterize U.S. political culture.

Beautiful Storytelling
Format: Hardcover
In a day and time when gentleness and positive imagination is needed for children, I was moved by this book in the best possible way. The storytelling was restrained and beautiful, allowing the illustrations to carry much of the story. I was truly emotional, in a gentle and grounded way, as I read this story. Every child should have the chance to find their wild side and do it in a safe environment, and this book shows you just how it can feel when it happens. The illustrations are perfect, and gorgeous, and lifted the story up to a new level of enjoyment. I cannot wait to share it with my 6-year-old granddaughter, and I honestly plan to many to give as gifts.
