"Combining the latest archaeological discoveries with new scholarly methods, Fullerton presents a history of Greek art and the idea of the classical through a range of media and materials, including Archaic statues from the Aegean islands, the gold and ivory of Macedonia, to the great Hellenistic monuments of the Greek east."--Jacket.

"While American Jews are commonly considered a homogenous ethnic group, the reality today is far more complex. Conversion, adoption, intermarriage, and immigration have transformed the fabric of Jewish communities, as they have the United States as a nation. This book explores questions of American Jewish identity and how Jews fit today into larger discourses of race, ethnicity, and religion. Featuring ten photographic and video projects by emerging and mid-career artists, all commissioned by The Jewish Museum, the book presents a range of provocative discussions of the nature of Jewish identity in twenty-first-century America."--BOOK JACKET.

"Illustrated with artifacts, catalogues, and, of course, a definitive array of photographs - many rarely seen - Stieglitz and the Photo-Secession, 1902 reconstructs the original Photo-Secession exhibition as it celebrates the centennial of the event. From the painterly images of Edward Steichen to the "straight' photography of Alfred Stieglitz, this book of America's foremost pictorial photographers is a must for all those with a serious interest in photography."--BOOK JACKET.
