„Řeklo by se, že sochy jsou nehybné a tiché. Ale připomínají katalyzátor. Výzva k pohybu je podle mě účinkem sochařství,“ myslí si sir Antony Gormley. Nejvýznamnější žijící britský sochař od včerejška vystavuje s Pavlou Melkovou v pražské Galerii Rudolfinum.
We prize knowledge, and rightly so. We think of ignorance as a bad thing. But ignorance is inseparable from what we know.Knowledge can distract us, mislead us and endanger us. While ignorance is often the most fundamental insight about our human condition. Ignorance is not simply the opposite of knowledge, but a positive force with its own momentum that gives meaning to our lives. It drives scientific discovery, fosters creativity and can be psychologically helpful. That's why Rory Stewart wants to make a radical case for embracing ignorance. He wants to encourage a way of knowing in which knowledge and ignorance exist in a relationship with each other.With a cast of global thinkers, drawing on Western and Eastern ideas from the ancient world to the present day, Rory explores how a greater awareness and appreciation of ignorance can help us become more clear-thinking, humble, empathetic and wise.

British sculptor Antony Gormley's (Sir Antony Mark David Gormley OBE RA) work has been widely exhibited throughout the UK and internationally with recent exhibitions at Musée Rodin, Paris (2023); Lehmbruck Museum, Duisburg, Germany (2022); Museum Voorlinden, Wassenaar, Netherlands (2022); National Gallery Singapore, Singapore (2021); Schauwerk Sindelfingen, Germany (2021); Royal Academy of Arts, London (2019); Delos, Greece (2019); Uffizi Gallery, Florence, Italy (2019); Philadelphia Museum of Art, Pennsylvania (2019); Long Museum, Shanghai (2017); and Forte di Belvedere, Florence, Italy (2015) among others! Some permanent public works include the Angel of the North (Gateshead, UK), Another Place (Crosby Beach, UK), and Inside Australia (Lake Ballard, Western Australia). Gormley was awarded the Turner Prize in 1994, the South Bank Prize for Visual Art in 1999, the Bernhard Heiliger Award for Sculpture in 2007, the Obayashi Prize in 2012 and the Praemium Imperiale in 2013. In 1997 he was made an Officer of the British Empire (OBE) and was made a knight in the New Year's Honors list in 2014. He is an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects, an Honorary Doctor of the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of Trinity and Jesus Colleges, Cambridge. Gormley has been a Royal Academician since 2003.He and Zuckerman discuss the state of the world, art as a form of witnessing, what can sculpture do, being in the world but not of it, moving through space with awareness, active meditation, what art is for, recognizing our own vitality, discovering ourselves as strangers, and the urgency and hopefulness of being alive right now!
For Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD) Thursday 16 May 2024 one of Sir Antony Gormley's sculptures ‘Another Time' which was installed on Fulsam Rock near Tate Contemporary Margate in 2017 which only appears three hours before low tide will now also be accessible to everyone through alt text descriptions found on the railings in front of the sculpture on margate beach. The alt text description of ‘Another Time' will be available until 21 May 2024 and will help to raise awareness about access to the arts for blind and partially sighted people. RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey caught up with Martin Wingfield, RNIB's Director of Brand, to talk about how alt text descriptions of art and much more is making a more inclusive world for blind and partially sighted people on Global Accessibility Awareness Day 2024 and at all times too. You will find a wide range of information and advice on living with sight loss on the RNIB website including information about access to the arts for blind and partially sighted people or by calling the RNIB Helpline 0303 123 999 and don't forget to follow Global Access Awareness Day on social media via #GAAD2024. https://www.rnib.org.uk/living-with-sight-loss/community-connection-and-wellbeing/leisure/art-galleries-museums-and-theatres/ (Image shows a photograph of 'Another Time', a sculpture of a figure facing out towards the sea with green plants growing on it)
For over forty years, the sculptor Sir Antony Gormley has been using his own body as the basis for his artistic work, and is known for creating cast iron human figures that stand on high streets, rooftops and beaches, as well as in museums and galleries around the world. He won the Turner Prize in 1994 and the prestigious Premium Imperiale in 2013. Antony Gormley is best known for the Angel Of The North, a monumental winged figure on a hill in Gateshead which, overlooking the motorway and a mainline railway, is one of the most viewed pieces of modern art in the world.He talks to John Wilson about his Catholic childhood and the influence that his former art teacher, the sculptor John Bunting had on him while he was at boarding school. Being taken by his father to the British Museum and seeing the colossal human-headed winged bulls, which once guarded an entrance to the citadel of the Assyrian king Sargon II (721-705 BC) captured his creative imagination. Gormley also chooses the life-changing experience of learning Vipassana meditation in India under the teacher S N Goenka, as one that has deeply informed his work.Producer: Edwina PitmanArchive: The Shock of the New : The Future That Was, BBC 2, 1980 Nightwaves, BBC Radio 3, 1994 BBC News, 1998 Five Sculptors : Antony Gormley, BBC2, 1988
TALK ART EXCLUSIVE! We meet Sir Antony Gormley OBE RA to discuss his forthcoming solo show 'Aerial' at White Cube New York, USA and his epic new 'Time Horizon' public installation of 100 sculptures which has just opened at Houghton Hall, Norfolk, UK. We explore his entire career across this intimate, highly detailed, feature-length special episode recorded in person at his London studio.Antony Gormley is widely acclaimed for his sculptures, installations and public artworks that investigate the relationship of the human body to space. Gormley's work is concerned with the experience of being in the world and an expression of how it feels to be alive. Through a critical engagement with his own physical existence, Gormley identifies art as a place where new behaviours, thoughts and feelings can arise. For him, art can be a place of becoming where, collectively, we can think about our role as creators of the future: ‘I want it to be about life. I want it to be about potential.'We explore his new works made for ‘Aerial', an exhibition by Antony Gormley in New York, in which the artist considers sculpture as an instrument for proprioception – the body's innate capacity to sense and perceive its position, movements and orientation in relation to itself and the environment. The exhibition features two recent developments in Gormley's practice: one explores physical proximity in mass and scale, where two over-life-size bodies merge as one, while the other endeavours to catalyse space almost without mass.Whilst 'Time Horizon', one of Antony Gormley's most spectacular large-scale installations, is currently being shown across the grounds and through the house at Houghton Hall in Norfolk. Featuring 100 life-size sculptures, the works are distributed across 300 acres of the park, the furthest away being approximately 1.5 miles on the West Avenue. The cast-iron sculptures, each weighing 620kg and standing at an average of 191cm, are installed at the same datum level to create a single horizontal plane across the landscape. Some works are buried, allowing only a part of the head to be visible, while others are buried to the chest or knees according to the topography.

Can Britain remain a cultural superpower post-Brexit? How does religion and philosophy inform creativity? How can we prevent arts from being cut from curriculums? Rory and Alastair are joined by Britain's leading sculptor, Antony Gormley, to answer all these questions and more.
À l'occasion de son exposition Critical Mass au Musée Rodin, l'artiste Antony Gormley dialogue avec Guitemie Maldonado, historienne de l'art et professeure aux Beaux-Arts de Paris, autour de sa pratique de sculpteur. Antony Gormley est né à Londres en 1950. Depuis plus de quarante ans, il explore les relations de l'homme à l'espace qui l'entoure à travers le corps humain. Il présente actuellement l'exposition Critical Mass au Musée Rodin (jusqu'au 3 mars 2024), dans laquelle ses œuvres dialoguent avec celles d'Auguste Rodin, invitant les visiteurs à s'interroger sur les deux sculpteurs et leur volonté commune d'utiliser le rôle du corps en tant que sujet de la sculpture mais aussi comme objet et outil de questionnement. Antony Gormley a exposé dans de nombreux musées à travers le monde, dont le Louisiana, Humlebæk (1989); la Konsthall de Malmö (1993); la Hayward Gallery, Londres (2007), le Kunsthaus de Bregenz (2010); le musée national de l'Ermitage, Saint-Pétersbourg (2011); les Deichtorhallen de Hambourg (2012); le Philadelphia Museum of Art (2019); la Royal Academy of Arts, Londres (2019); la National Gallery, Singapore (2021); le Voorlinden Museum, Wassenaar (2022); et le Lehmbruck Museum, Duisburg (2022). Il a participé à la Biennale de Venise en 1982 et 1986, et à la documenta de Kassel en 1987. Parmi ses sculptures monumentales installées dans l'espace public, on peut citer L'Ange du Nord à Gateshead (1998), Quantum Cloud (2000) au bord de la Tamise à Londres, Un autre endroit (2005) sur la plage de Crosby, À l'intérieur de l'Australie (2002–03) sur le lac salé Ballard et Exposure (2010) à Lelystad, au nord-est d'Amsterdam. En France, ses sculptures Cloud Chain (2012) et WITNESS VII et WITNESS VIII (2021) sont installées de façon permanente respectivement aux Archives nationales et à l'École du Louvre. Antony Gormley a reçu le Turner Prize en 1994, le South Bank Prize, dans la catégorie arts plastiques, en 1999 et le prix Bernhard Heiliger pour la sculpture en 2007. Nommé officier dans l'ordre de l'Empire britannique en 1997, il a été élevé au rang de chevalier pour services rendus aux arts en 2014. Entré à la Royal Academy en 2003 et au conseil d'administration du British Museum en 2007, Antony Gormley est membre honoraire du Royal Institute of British Architects et docteur honoris causa de l'université de Cambridge.

Akram's rich career includes performing at the opening ceremony of the London Olympics, collaborating with artists Anish Kapoor and Antony Gormley, and choreographing tours and videos for the likes of Kylie Minogue and Florence + the Machine. He was awarded an MBE for services to dance in 2005. He kindly invited us to his home last summer and we recorded this conversation in a shady spot in the garden. Akram is of Bangladeshi descent and he grew up above his parents' restaurant in south-west London. He was bullied at school and harassed by the National Front outside of it, so he's always had a conflicted view of his community. As a child, he was introverted to the point of being mute, and movement quickly became his primary form of expression. He tells me how he danced so enthusiastically at home that the lights in the restaurant below would start shaking, putting the customers off their food. The word ‘home' has come to mean many things for Akram: it's the small studio in the garden where he practises dance for four hours every morning, it's the stage on which he performs, and it's also his own body. As is the case for so many true artists, there's a lot of conflicting emotion inside him. He talks particularly poignantly about his relationship with his late father, who always struggled to demonstrate his love. Akram's story has really stayed with me. Being able to talk to people on this podcast is a great privilege, and conversations like this one really remind me of that.For more: Visit The Modern House website to see images of the spaces discussed in this episodeCheck out the latest from the Akram Khan CompanyProduction: Hannah PhillipsEditing and mixing: Oscar CrawfordGraphic Design: Tom YoungMusic: FatherThis episode was sponsored by Vitsoe Hosted on Acast.

The sea doesn't take a day off – neither do the lifeguards at Crosby Beach. Siobhan Murphy explains why Crosby Beach is unique, and in more ways than one. It's the only beach patrolled by RNLI lifeguards 365 days a year. And on Christmas Day, Senior Lifeguard Siobhan Murphy will be one of them. They're kept busy by the tourists who come to see the 100 Antony Gormley sculptures – titled Another Place – that span the length of the beach. Siobhan explains the dangers that catch some visitors out. Dangers that mean the lifeguards – just like the army of statues looking out to sea – must keep vigil, day in, day out. 200 Voices is produced by Adventurous Audio for the RNLI Interview by Adventurous Audio Soundtrack composed and performed by Jon Nicholls The RNLI is a charity celebrating 200 years of saving lives at sea - find out more at RNLI.org/200

In this edition of Arts24, Eve Jackson speaks to one of the most popular and accoladed artists in the UK and beyond. Antony Gormley's sculptures are simple and accessible and scattered around the world, from cities to seashores. His 20-metre-high "Angel of the North" has for two decades gazed down upon 33 million yearly passersby in North East England and his installation of 40,000 tiny clay figures "Field for the British Isles" won him the world's top art award, the Turner Prize, in 1994. The artist is in Paris for a show at the Rodin Museum called Critical Mass. He talks about the necessity of sculpture in the digital age, how he tries to make eco-conscious work and his thoughts about being a white, male, Cambridge-educated successful artist in 2023.

Russell & Robert meet leading artist Lindsey Mendick, recorded in front of an intimate live audience at Jupiter Artland, Edinburgh. We explore Lindsey's major new solo exhibition 'Sh*tfaced', her first solo show in Scotland. Running until 1st October 2023, this multi-layered exhibition of new ceramics, film and sculptural installations is presented across all of Jupiter Artland's galleries.Lindsey Mendick's work is one of confession, where taboo topics and uncomfortable truths are revealed with candour and humour. Her work is characterised by an intense attention to detail and verisimilitude, whereby everyday scenes – a nightclub, a kitchen, a bedroom – are expertly crafted in ceramic and staged in larger-than-life tableaux.Mendick has transformed Jupiter's Ballroom Gallery and Steadings Gallery into a diptych of nightlife; one that draws inspiration from the gothic novella The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde with all its troubling contentions of virtue, appearance, public shaming and masking. Like an anxiety dream come to life, there is a sobering mirroring of contemporary binge drinking culture and gender-based shaming presented in the work, although the anticipated judgemental tone is noticeably absent. By subverting the genre of morality tale, Mendick's work opens a space where our public and private faces can be encountered without prejudice.Lindsey Mendick graduated from Royal College of Art in 2017 and is currently based in Margate. Her work has been shown in solo exhibitions at Carl Freedman Gallery, Margate. Her work was also included in the major exhibition, Strange Clay: Ceramics in Contemporary Art at the Hayward Gallery, London. With her partner, the artist Guy Oliver, Mendick initiated Quench Gallery in Margate to provide vital support for early career artists through exhibitions and mentoring.This is second Talk Art episode with Lindsey - to listen back to the first, you can find it in the archive Season 8, Episode 4 (recorded in 2020).

ArTEEtude. West Cork´s first Art, Fashion & Design Podcast by Detlef Schlich.
Journey through time with Detlef Schlich in Episode 181 of #Arteetude as we explore the ancient encoding of carvings and engravings in megalithic structures, and how these primaeval practices resonate in contemporary art.
Per il nuovo episodio in inglese di Monologhi al Telefono, Donatella Giordano invita l'artista Antony Gormley che racconta al telefono il tema principale della sua ricerca.Monologhi al Telefono è una rubrica di Donatella Giordano che raccoglie interviste informali agli artisti. L'intervista avviene dietro le quinte attraverso un confronto iniziale con l'artista. Con un attento processo di editing, il dialogo si trasforma in un monologo dove l'artista sembra che rispondi al telefono simulando una conversazione con l'utente, che diventa così il suo interlocutore. Il sistema applicato vuole superare il concetto dell'intervista classica a favore di un approccio che azzera la distanze e contamina due formati: il podcast e la telefonata.

Join two of 5x15's favourite guests, Carlo Rovelli and Oliver Burkeman, to discuss time, the universe and our place in it. Carlo Rovelli's HELOGLAND was an instant bestseller when it was published in 2021, and was chosen as a book of the year by The Times, Financial Times, Sunday Times, Guardian and Prospect. To celebrate its paperback publication, we are delighted to welcome Carlo back to 5x15 to revisit this beautiful, thrilling and mind-bending journey into the world of quantum physics. In HELGOLAND, Carlo Rovelli tells the story of the birth of quantum physics and its bright young founders, who were to become some of the most famous Nobel winners in science. It is a celebration of youthful rebellion and intellectual revolution; an invitation to a magical place, and a dazzling work from one of our most celebrated scientists and master storytellers, reminding us of the many pleasures of the life of the mind. Carlo will be joined in conversation by Guardian writer Oliver Burkeman, whose best-selling book FOUR THOUSAND WEEKS was a smash hit and a Financial Times, Guardian and Observer book of the year in 2021. Drawing on the insights of both ancient and contemporary philosophers, psychologists and spiritual teachers, it is a book that sets out to realign our relationship with time - and in doing so, to liberate us from its tyranny. Carlo Rovelli is a theoretical physicist who has made significant contributions to the physics of space and time. His books Seven Brief Lessons on Physics, Reality is Not What it Seems and The Order of Time are international bestsellers which have been translated into 43 languages and have sold over 2 million copies worldwide in all formats. His many fans include Benedict Cumberbatch, Antony Gormley, Neil Gaiman, Es Devlin, Lily Cole, David Hockney, Philip Pullman, Nick Hornby and Morgan Freeman. Rovelli is currently working in Canada and also directing the quantum gravity research group of the Centre de Physique Théorique in Marseille, France. Oliver Burkeman is the author of The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive Thinking, and for many years wrote a popular weekly column on psychology for the Guardian, 'This Column Will Change Your Life'. His work has also appeared in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Psychologies and New Philosopher. He has a devoted following for his writing on productivity, mortality, the power of limits, and building a meaningful life in an age of bewilderment. With thanks for your support for 5x15 online.

Annual reports and lists by different platforms show that psychology, comics about history, and works of literature were the most popular book categories among Chinese readers in 2021, reflecting the major concerns and topics in society.不同平台的年度报告和榜单显示,心理学类、历史漫画类和文学类是2021年中国读者最喜欢的书籍类别,反映了社会的关注热点和话题。Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the Chinese book market has been experiencing challenges, as sales in 2020 dropped for the first time since 2015 and sales in 2021, although greater compared with the previous year, did not reach the level before the pandemic, according to a report by Beijing OpenBook, a consulting company specializing in the book business.根据开卷的2021年图书零售市场报告显示,在新冠疫情期间,中国的图书市场一直历经挑战,2020年销售额自2015年以来首次下降。尽管2021年有所回升,但仍然没有恢复到疫情前的状态。Sales of online books had been growing by more than 20 percent annually over the previous 10 years before 2020 as online platforms and online shoppers grew. However, as the customer base stabilized, online book sales grew by only 1 percent in 2021 year-on-year.在2020年之前的10年内,随着网络平台和网络购物者的增长,在线图书的销售额每年增长达20%以上。而随着客户群的逐步稳定,2021年在线图书销量同比仅增长了1%。Physical bookstores are still facing serious challenges posed by the pandemic since most activities went online and visitors declined. Book sales in bookshops in 2021 grew by a little over 4 percent, driven largely by books related to the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, but still dropped by more than 31 percent compared with 2019, according to Beijing OpenBook.实体书店仍然面临着疫情带来的严峻挑战,大部分活动在线上进行,到店的游客数量也有所下降。根据开卷的报告数据显示,2021年实体书店的图书销量仅增长了4%多一点,主要是受建党百年纪念图书推广活动的影响。但与2019年相比仍下降了31%以上。Since 2018, sales of literature kept dropping until 2021 when it grew by 4.6 percent year-on-year. What is prominent is that among the top 100 best-selling fiction works published in 2021, 63 were online literary works, Beijing OpenBook's statistics show.从2018年开始,文学类图书的销量一直在下降,到2021年同比增长4.6%。值得注意的是,根据开卷的报告显示,在2021年出版的最畅销小说100部作品中,有63部是网络文学作品。The most popular genres of online literature in China include fantasy, romance, martial arts and science fiction. Among the 63 online literary works on the top 100 best-selling list of books published in 2021, most were targeted at women readers, and 22 titles from Tangjia Sanshao's Douluo Dalu(Soul Land) series, first run on qidian.com, were among the best-sellers.中国最受欢迎的网络文学类型包括奇幻、爱情、武侠和科幻。在2021年出版的100本最畅销图书榜单上的63部网络文学作品中,大多数是面向女性读者的。在起点网首次上线的唐家三少《斗罗大陆》系列中的22部作品被列入最畅销榜单之中。Shen Yu, a former book editor based in Shanghai, who has observed the industry for more than 10 years, says more people read online literature, which is usually entertaining but lacks in depth and artistic merit, because amid the pandemic people need to find comfort in entertaining texts, in which protagonists usually conquer difficulties and achieve success in either romantic relationships or professional fields.曾在上海工作的前图书编辑沈宇涉足图书行业超过10年。他表示,越来越多的人阅读网络文学。虽然这些作品大多很有趣,但缺乏深度和艺术价值。在疫情期间,人们需要从娱乐作品中寻求安慰,这类作品通常是主人公历经艰难最终在情感上和事业上双丰收的故事走向。Despite the fast growth of online literature, the leading seats on the best-selling list are still taken by classic books, with The Three-Body Problem trilogy books occupying the first three places. Among the 100 best-selling fictional works, 12 were published in 2021, mainly new works by established writers, the new editions of classic books and online youth fiction. Yu Hua's novel Wencheng(The Lost City) sold more than 1 million copies in three months since it was published in March 2021, making 10th place on the top 100 best-selling list.尽管网络文学发展迅速,但最畅销的书籍仍归经典书籍莫属,《三体》三部曲占据了2021年虚构榜单前三位。在100部畅销小说中有12部出版于2021年,主要是知名作家的新作、新版经典图书和网络青春小说。余华的小说《文城》自2021年3月出版以来,在3个月的时间里销量超过了100万册,在畅销书前100位中排名第10位。"In general, compared with cold hard facts in nonfiction, fiction might be able to give readers more comfort," Shen says.“总体来说,与非小说类作品中冰冷的纪实相比,小说类可能会带给读者更多的安慰,” 沈宇说道。Among the 100 best-selling nonfiction works, in addition to British writer Robert De Board's Counseling for Toads: A Psychological Adventure that topped the list, there were 19 other psychological or self-help books. Ten books about family education, and 10 books on economics and finance also entered the list.在最畅销的非虚构类榜单中,除了英国作家罗伯特·戴博德的《蛤蟆先生去看心理医生》位居榜首外,还有19本心理学类或励志书籍进入榜单。另外还有10本家庭教育书籍和10本经济金融类书籍。"In 2020 and 2021, people felt more pressure due to the pandemic. That is why psychological books received more attention. Compared with books that instruct people on how to be successful, books that tell people how to adjust themselves psychologically were more popular, such asDanshariby Japanese writer Yamashita Hiteko," says an analyst from Beijing OpenBook.“在2020年和2021年这两年,新冠疫情让人们的压力更大了。这是心理学类书籍受到更多关注的原因。与教导人们如何成功的书籍相比,告诉人们如何调整心理的书籍更受欢迎,比如日本作家山下英子的《断舍离》。”Additionally, comic books on history were also popular, with 12 titles of theHalf-an-Hourbook series and eight titles ofIf History Is a Group of Catsseries entering the top 100 bestselling nonfiction list.此外,历史漫画书也很受欢迎,《半小时》系列和《如果历史是一群猫》系列都进入了非虚构类畅销书排行榜的前100名。"Comic books have become popular in recent years, first about history and gradually touching fields such as ancient poems, medicine, and science and technology," the analyst from Beijing OpenBook says.“近几年漫画书越来越流行,首先是关于历史的,再逐渐涉及到古诗、医药和科技类,” 开卷公司的分析师介绍道。"This kind of book is easy to follow, catering to people's fragmented reading habits, so it sells well," the analyst says.“这类型的书通俗易懂,迎合了人们碎片化的阅读习惯,所以销路很好。”As one of the results of the advancement of information technology and media, it seems like that people's ability to read and understand long and complicated texts has declined。沈宇说,信息技术和媒体发展的后果之一,就是人们阅读和理解篇幅长且复杂的文本的能力似乎下降了。"We must see such comic books as only being used to popularize basic knowledge rather than elaborate on profound content. Readers usually read them to relax rather than study, so in function they cannot replace normal books on the same topics," the analyst says.“我们必须知道这样的漫画只是用来普及基础知识的,而不是阐述深刻的内容的。读者读这些书通常是为了放松而不是学习。所以在功能上,它们无法取代相同主题的普通书籍,” 分析师说。Besides the best-selling lists, a lot of platforms released their lists of "good books" that highlighted major social concerns of 2021.除了开卷统计的数据外,很多平台也盘点了在2021年反映主要社会问题的好书。At its annual reading ceremony in mid-January, theBook Review Weekly of Beijing Newsreleased a list of 12 books published in China in 2021 that were "most worth reading". Targeted at the middle-income group, the weekly's list, covering 10 fields, including literature, art, history, social sciences, economy, children, education, and lifestyle, came out after rounds of discussions among 12 experts and scholars in related fields.在1月中旬的年度读书会上,《新京报书评周刊》经过多轮筛选,从2021年的出版物中挑选出推荐入围书单,该书单面向中等收入群体,涵盖文学、艺术、历史、思想、社科、经济、儿童、教育、生活、新知10个类别。在82本入围推荐书单的基础上,结合12位业内专家学者和评委的意见,确定了最终的12本推荐书单。Among the 12 books, there are Irish writer Roddy Doyle'sPaddy Clark Ha Ha Ha,Manifeste Incertainby French writer Frederic Pajak,Shaping the Worldby British writers Antony Gormley and Martin Gayford,The Cheese and the Wormsby Italian writer Carlo Ginzburg, andSanbu(Take a Walk) by Chinese illustrator Dawu.12本书籍中包括爱尔兰作家罗迪·道尔的《童年往事》,法国作家费德里克·帕雅克的《不确定宣言》,英国作家安东尼·葛姆雷和马丁·盖福德的《雕塑的故事》,意大利作家卡洛·金兹堡的微观史名著《奶酪与蛆虫》,还有大吴的作品“散步三部曲”——《散步》《露营》《游河》。The Second Shiftby US writers Arlie Hochschild and Anne Machung reflects the general concern in Chinese society regarding the low birthrate and parenting.读者们对美国作家阿莉·拉塞尔·霍赫希尔德和安妮·马钟的《第二轮班:职业父母与家庭变革》的关注反映了中国社会对低出生率和养育子女的普遍关心。In the last two years, the pandemic has largely restricted the physical space for people's activities and cut off connections with nature. Ouyang Ting's Beifang Youkeshu (There Is a Tree in the North) entered the list because it illustrates how people can find nature in their surroundings. The book contains the writer's observations of Beijing's natural environment and her phenological notes on parks, plants, birds, rains, clouds and wind, presenting a vibrant picture of creatures in the city throughout the four seasons of a year.在过去两年中,新冠疫情在很大程度上限制了人们活动的物理空间,切断了人们与自然的联系。欧阳婷的作品《北方有棵树》上榜,得益于它向人们展示了人类以外的自然世界。这本书介绍了作者对北京自然环境的观察和她对公园、植物、鸟类、雨、云、风的物候记录,勾勒出“自然北京”及其周边的盎然生机。"Every spring is different. We must keep our curiosity to ask more questions, which will bring us to farther places," she said at the ceremony.欧阳婷在读书会上说:“每个春天都是不同的。一定要让自己保持好奇,多一些发问,这种好奇心可以把我们带往更远的地方。”

Akram Khan MBE is without doubt one of the most innovative and important choreographers of our time. He has created some of the most profound and moving works over the last 20 years of Akram Khan Company, a company he founded with Farooq Chaudry. In this podcast, Akram talks about his experience of lockdown that led to feelings of depression, caused by the impacts of the coronavirus pandemic. He gives us an insight into how he began creating again and collaborating on their 20th celebration programme The Silent Burn Project. Akram looks back over his dance career; from his dance training in Kathak South Asian classical dance and contemporary dance, to the influences and inspirations that led to him choreographing works that tell stories which critically address subjects ranging from power, oppression and racism. Listen to Akram talk about his approach to creating new works, his process of working with his visual, musical and design collaborators and dancers when he goes in the studio. In this intimate discussion, Akram reflects on his career highlights, on working with Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Antony Gormley, prima ballerina Sylvie Guillem CBE, creating Giselle with English National Ballet, and his hotly anticipated premiere of ENB's Creature which has been delayed due to coronavirus. We also talk about his creations; Dust, Until the Lions, Xenos, DESH and more. As we delve into Akram Khan Company, Akram gives a glimpse of what to expect from The Silent Burn Project, which features world famous prima ballerina Misty Copeland, plus dance short films, debates and more exciting content to celebrate the last two decades of this astounding company.

If the poets of the past sat in their garrets dipping their quills in ink and waiting for inspiration to strike, our current Poet Laureate Simon Armitage has a more mundane and domestic arrangement. From his wooden shed in the garden, surrounded on all sides by the Pennine Hills and the Pennine weather, he scratches away at his reworking of the comic medieval poem The Owl and the Nightingale. Any distraction is welcome, even encouraged, to talk about poetry, music, art, sheds, sherry, owls, nightingales and to throw light on some of the poem's internal themes. Sculptor Antony Gormley's visit begins with a walk around the garden where his eye is caught by some huge Yorkshire standing stones. Their conversation ranges from The Angel of the North, placing sculpture in the landscape and the sea to the skills of the shipyard and the relationship between art and engineering. From body shape to chemistry sets, potions and explosions to Antony's first work of art - two eyes, carved into a wall at his old school.

Orlando Bloom swaps Middle-earth and the high seas for a Texas trailer park in his first West End production in over a decade, Killer Joe. He talks about playing Joe Cooper, a policeman turned assassin, employed by a family at their wits end to kill their mother for a cut of her life insurance money.Is death, the 'last taboo', finally being broken down by the arts? We consider the recent glut of writing and performance about grief with Cariad Lloyd, whose podcast Griefcast, in which she talks to fellow comedians about losing someone, swept the board at the recent British Podcast Awards. Stig is also joined by writer Kim Sherwood whose debut novel Testament is about family secrets and mourning the death of a grandfather. It has been a winning week for rap as Kenrick Lamar, Stormzy and Dave are all awarded prestigious song-writing prizes. We ask whether it's about the music, or the message, the poetry or the politics? In Antony Gormley's new exhibition, Subject, at the recently redesigned Kettle's Yard in Cambridge, the artist continues his investigations into the relationships between the human body and space. Critic Richard Cork gives his response to the works, some of which are new, and others not previously exhibited in the UK.Presenter: Stig Abell Producer: Julian May.
A huge steel sculpture, that has become an icon for the north-east of England, was completed in February 1998. Designed by artist Antony Gormley, the Angel of the North was initially met with so much opposition that it was almost never built. Louise Hidalgo has been speaking to arts curator Anna Pepperall who was involved in the plans to build the most ambitious piece of public art that Britain had ever seen.Photo: The Angel of the North (Credit: Owen Humphreys/PA Wire)
