Reisverhaal Lost Japan | Alex Kerr
Reisverhaal Lost Japan | Alex Kerr
An enchanting and fascinating insight into Japanese landscape, culture, history and future. Originally written in Japanese, this passionate, vividly personal book draws on the author's experiences in Japan over thirty years. Alex Kerr brings to life the ritualized world of Kabuki, retraces his initiation into Tokyo's boardrooms during the heady Bubble Years, and tells the story of the hidden valley that became his home. But the book is not just a love letter. Haunted throughout by nostalgia for the Japan of old, Kerr's book is part paean to that great country and culture, part epitaph in the face of contemporary Japan's environmental and cultural destruction. Winner of Japan's Shincho Gakugei Literature Prize, and now fully revised in a new edition. Alex Kerr is an American writer, antiques collector and Japanologist. Lost Japan is his most famous work. He was the first foreigner to be awarded the Shincho Gakugei Literature Prize for the best work of non-fiction published in Japan.

Reisverhaal Sacred Summits | Peter Boardman
Reisverhaal Sacred Summits | Peter Boardman
Mountaintops have long been seen as sacred places, home to gods and dreams. In one climbing year Peter Boardman visited three very different sacred mountains. He began in the New Year, on the South Face of the Carstensz Pyramid in New Guinea.   This shark's fin of steep limestone walls and sweeping glaciers is the highest point between the Andes and the Himalaya, and one of the most inaccessible, rising above thick jungle inhabited by warring Stone Age tribes. During the spring Boardman was on more familiar, if hardly more reassuring, ground, making a four-man, oxygen-free attempt on the world's third highest peak, Kangchenjunga. Hurricane-force winds beat back their first two bids on the unclimbed North Ridge, but they eventually stood within feet of the summit - leaving the final few yards untrodden in deference to the inhabiting deity.   In October, he was back in the Himalaya and climbing the mountain most sacred to the Sherpas: the twin-summited Gauri Sankar. Renowned for its tec…

Tjibbe Hooghiemstra - Water (Hardback)
Tjibbe Hooghiemstra - Water (Hardback)
Water as a concept is a leitmotiv in Hooghiemstra's work. His work does not only engage in the phenomenon water per se, but also about voyages of discovery from the past, how maps were drawn and land sometimes rose as an illusion from the ocean, how water is perceived and how it is represented in visual art and science. Text by Nancy Campbell, Scottish poet and winner of Royal Geographical Society Ness Award 2020, and American poet and 2019 Pulitzer Prize winner, Forrest Gander. Tjibbe Hooghiemstra (Tytsjerk, 1957) had exhibitions in The Netherlands and abroad on a regular basis, from the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin and The Model in Sligo (Ireland), to various galleries and art fairs in New York, Basel, Berlin, Paris and Tokyo. His work is collected by museums and private collectors, including the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, Rijksmuseum Amsterdam, Teylers Museum Haarlem, Fries Museum Leeuwarden, National Collection of Contemporary Drawing,
