Summary:
This publication brings together an array of Norway and Switzerland's 19th-century artists, who shared an interest in capturing their native dramatic alpine landscapes. This illustrated book also examines the differences that climate, character, and political regimes have imposed on artistic practices. Distinct social and political situations in Norway and Switzerland yielded fundamental differences in the two countries' painting traditions. As Norway endured a long struggle for freedom, Switzerland remained proudly independent. While Norway was poor, isolated, and dependent for survival on its natural resources, the Swiss enjoyed prosperity, a cosmopolitan society, and prestige as an early center of industry. The authors examine how this was manifested in the landscape paintings of such prominent artists as Johan Christian Dahl, Thomas Fearnley, Peder Balke, and Alexandra Calame. This book also supplies a helpful chronology and brief artist biographies.

Simo's book spans half a century, from the year that Charles Sprague Sargent's influential "Garden and Forest" magazine ceased publication in 1897 to the appearance in 1949 of two unusual books about land and landscape—Aldo Leopold's "Sand County Almanac" and Jens Jensen's "The Clearing" —that marked the beginning of a new ecological awareness.

Summary:
Frank Gehry's startling architecture for the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles has been depicted in two other books by Balcony Press (Iron and Frozen Music). This new release describes the daring and skill that produced the pipe organ which is the visual focus of the auditorium. This book gives honor to the creativity and craftsmanship of those who designed, fabricated, and installed this instrument. (Façade design by Frank Gehry, tonal design by Manuel Rosales, construction of complex components by Glatter-Götz Orgelbau). It also pays tribute to the artistry of the organists who inaugurated it. The generous quantity and quality of the color photographs are balanced with a readable text that describes the development of this pipe organ from initial sketches, to models, to the completed instrument. Included are interesting interviews with designers, builders and musicians.
