Structures of Nature: Photographs by Andreas Fieninger
Andreas Feininger , and N. Elizabeth Schlatter Manufacturer: University of Richmond Museums ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 097137533X |
Book Description
Born in Paris and raised in Germany, Andreas Feininger (1906-1999) was the son of American artist and Bauhaus teacher Lyonel Feininger. By the 1920s, the younger Feininger had already established several stylistic traits in his photographic work, such as monumentalized subject matter and emphasis on texture and line. His nature photographs tend to reveal patterns in animal and plant forms as found in the backbones of a snake or veins in a leaf. After immigrating to America in 1939, Feininger completed almost 350 photographic essays for Life magazine between 1943 and 1962. In addition he published numerous books on photographic theory and technique and his photographs were included in the Museum of Modern Art exhibition "The Family of Man."Structures of Nature presents a selection of Feininger's stunning nature photography. An essay by N. Elizabeth Schlatter considers his work in the context of German photography between the two world wars and in comparison with his American contemporaries.

STRUCTURES OF NATURE, a must for any photographer.......2003-03-09
In "Structures of Nature", the University of Richmond Museums has assembled a collection of Andreas Feininger's black-and-white photographic tributes to the beauty of patterns in the natural world. Though best known for his nostalgic slice-of-life snapshot of the crowds at Coney Island (1949), Andreas Feininger possessed a remarkable talent for capturing both the scientific and the artistic in something as minute as the veins of a single leaf to the regimented chaos of an untamed forest. In recognition of the equal strengths of both these aspects, his work has been shown in both the Museum of Modern Art and the Museum of Natural History.
Elizabeth Schlatter, Assistant Director and Curator of the Structures of Nature exhibit a the University of Richmond, initiated this project a year after Andreas Feininger's death in 1999. The collection is presented in three installments: Sea Creatures, Spirals & Symmetry; Micro & Macro; and Plants & Patterns. Her introductory essay on the life, background and influences on Andreas Feininger's nature studies concisely explores the photoartist's intended matrix of connections that exist amongst the eternal structures of both organism and ecology.

Soil Retaining Structures: Development of models for structural analysis
K.J. Bakker Manufacturer: Taylor & Francis ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 9058093212 |
Book Description
Soil-retaining structures offer the possibility to reduce the necessary space for the development of structures for buildings and infrastructure. Soil retaining structures enable building below the soil surface and underground. In order to design the necessary safe and reliable structures, models for structural analysis are needed. Models evaluated in this study are numerical models, mostly based on finite element techniques. To develop these models a frame of reference for the verification and validation of these models is described and applied. Contents: Introduction; Design methodology; Development of models for structural analysis; Soil mechanics and groundwater flow; Block revetments; Flexible retaining walls; Bored tunnels in soft soil; Conclusions and recommendations.

So Sylvy knows all about birds, does she? he exclaimed, as he looked round at the little girl who sat, very demure but increasingly sleepy, in the moonlight. "I am making a collection of birds myself. I have been at it ever since I was a boy." (Mrs. Tilley smiled.) "There are two or three very rare ones I have been hunting for these five years. I mean to get them on my own ground if they can be found."Customer Reviews:
