”Lad mig være, jeg vil være hos min mor. Jeg vil have min mor,” råbte og skreg Fly på sit hestesprog.Men de tobenede lod som om de ikke hørte ham eller … måske kunne de ikke høre eller forstå ham?”Hvad laver I? Hvad vil I have mig til? Moar, hjælp mig!”Sheila var fortvivlet over, at hun ikke kunne hjælpe sin lille søn.”Du må være tapper, min dreng. Hvis du gør, som de beder dig om, skal det nok gå!”Flying High nedbrydes af oplevelser i sine første leveår og senere i træningsstalden på galopbanen. Hestens store retfærdighedssans gør ham til en fighter, og han nægter at underkaste sig trænernes hårdhændede metoder.I sidste øjeblik reddes han fra slagteriet, men er han for skadet på krop og sjæl? Kan Flying High få et godt hesteliv eller var det bedre, at han fik fred?Bogen er baseret på virkelige hændelser fra forfatterens liv.”Tak fordi jeg måtte læse din roman. Hvor har den rørt mig. Jeg blev helt fanget af Fly og historien. En moderne Black Beauty … Man kan godt mærke din gode energi og viden i bogen!” Sinéad Quirke KøngerskovOm forfatterenLena Vanessa har mere end 40 års erfaring med heste som træner, underviser og konkurrencerytter.

In The Story of Scandinavia, political scholar Stein Ringen chronicles more than 1,200 years of drama, economic rise and fall, crises, kings and queens, war, peace, language and culture.  Scandinavian history has been one of dramatic discontinuities of collapse and restarts, from the Viking Age to the Age of Perpetual War to the modern age today. For a thousand years, the Scandinavian countries were kingdoms of repression where monarchs played at the game of being European powers, at the expense of their own populations. The brand we now know as "Scandinavia" is a recent invention. During most of its history, Denmark and Sweden, and to some degree Norway, were bloody enemies. These sentiments of enmity have not been fully settled. Under the surface of collaboration remain undercurrents of hatred, envy, contempt and pity.  What does it mean today to be Scandinavian? For the author, whose identity is Scandinavian but his life European, this masterly history is a personal exploration as well as a narrative of compelling scope.

In her sculptures, installations, films, and interventions in public spaces, Croatian artist Luiza Margan explores the disparity between officially recorded history and history which is invisible. She questions the ways in which power structures and ideological systems are etched into the public sphere and interwoven into collective memory.The installation Cache, created in the course of the Artist-in-Residence-Program of the ZF Kunststiftung, examines the traces of National Socialist rule left in the city of Friedrichshafen. The title alludes to a hidden location, a concealed storehouse for information.

The artist duo Michael Elmgreen & Ingar Dragset continues to devise new ways of presenting and perceiving art through their subversive and versatile work. The updated and expanded edition of Elmgreen & Dragset: Sculptures is the most comprehensive study to date of the duo's sculptures from the mid-1990s to the present day. Visually designed to reflect the aesthetic and concep-tual working methods developed by the artist duo over the course of their careers, the book features detailed photographic documentation as well as four seminalessays on the artist duo's oeuvre. MICHAEL ELMGREEN (*Denmark) and INGAR DRAGSET (*Norway) have been working together since 1995. Their work explores socio-cultural and political themes such as the challenges of growing up, queer issues, the construction of identity, consumer culture, and the privatization of public space. The artist duo has received numerous prizes, including the Preis der Nationalgalerie in Berlin (2002) and a Special Mention at the Venice Biennale (2009).

This publication gives a comprehensive overview of the work of Italian artist Alberto Garutti. His innovative oeuvre, consisting primarily of sculptures, installations, and works in public space, explores site-specificity along with its social realities and historical contexts. With the artistic and methodological strategies he has employed since the 1990s, he has revolutionized the vocabulary of public and site-specific art. ALBERTO GARUTTI (1948-2023) has been a key figure on the Italian and European contemporary art scene of the last forty years. Since the early 1990s, Garutti's practice has evolved into a radical manifesto for public art. His works in the urban context-commissioned by cities and institutions around the world-are meant to be open devices for reimaging. As a practitioner of public art and a teacher at the Academy of Brera in Milan and at the IUAV in Venice who has influenced many generations of Italian artists, Alberto Garutti is considered one of the most influential Italian artists of his generation.

Skandinavien ist weltberühmt für sein "Demokratisches Design": Nicht nur schafft es Verbindungen zwischen Handwerk und industrieller Produktion sowie organischen Formen und Alltagsfunktionalität, es ist Design für alle und somit einzigartig. Möbel, Glas, Keramik, Textilien, Schmuck, Metallwaren und Industriedesign Skandinaviens von 1900 bis heute bildet dieser umfassende Band ab - als detaillierter Überblick und mit ausführlichen Einträgen zu 125 Designern und von Designern geführten Unternehmen. Dazu gehören Verner Panton, Arne Jacobsen, Alvar Aalto, Timo Sarpaneva, Hans Wegner, Tapio Wirkkala, Stig Lindberg, Finn Juhl, Märta Måås-Fjetterström, Arnold Madsen, Barbro Nilsson, Fritz Hansen, Artek, Le Klint, Gustavsberg, Iittala, Fiskars, Orrefors, Royal Copenhagen, Holmegaard, Arabia, Marimekko und Georg Jensen.

In her works, Nina Annabelle Märkl (b. 1979) develops permeable viewing spaces that lie at the interface between drawing, object, and installation. The viewers move through landscape-like settings in modular spatial installations, entering into various dialogues with the works. In addition, through the shift in perspective, they can experience the possibility of seeing themselves in their own observations and can question the structures of their perception.The monograph Scapes unites various strands of Nina Annabelle Märkl's work in the diversity of their links and leaps between drawing and spatiality, which follow on from one another in the diversity of manifestation or interpenetrate one another in individual arrangements.

Conceived as an archive, the book brings together the experiences of Frequencies, a global participatory project initiated by multimedia artist Oscar Murillo in 2013. Part of the artist's multimedia practice, Frequencies addresses the notion of community through the lens of its making. For over a decade, it has involved members of Murillo's family, studio team and collaborators, visiting schools around the globe, fixing raw canvas onto classroom desks, and inviting the students to freely mark, write and draw on them for a period of approximately six months. Murillo has collected an archive of canvases, which he presented in various interactive exhibitions. OSCAR MURILLO (*1986, La Paila, Colombia) has developed a multi-faceted and ambitious practice that spans painting, collaborative projects, video, sound and installation. He received his MFA from the Royal College of Art in 2012 and was one of four artists to collectively win the prestigious Turner Prize in 2019.

This book is a comprehensive tribute to the Polish-Belgian artist Tapta (Maria Wierusz-Kowalska). Her work transcends traditional artistic boundaries, captivating audiences with her innovative exploration of fluid spaces and dynamic interactions. Her work, an important contribution to twentieth century sculpture, is essentially divided into two major sections: the textile works of the 1960s to 1980s and the subsequent neoprene works of the last years of her life. Her practice moved away from traditional weaving through experimental techniques and evolved into three-dimensional works-first made of cords, then of neoprene sheets-that interacted with the space and the viewer. TAPTA (*1926-1997) was born in Poland and came to Belgium as a political refugee with her husband, Krzysztof Wierusz-Kowalski, after taking part in the Warsaw Uprising of 1944. She studied weaving at the La Cambre National School of Visual Arts, Brussels, from where she graduated in 1949. Shortly afterwards, the couple moved to the Belgian Congo (now Democratic Republic of the Congo), where they lived from 1950 to 1960. On their return to Belgium in 1960, until her sudden death in 1997, she worked in Brussels as an artist and-from 1976 until 1990-as a professor at La Cambre.

Marco Stanke (*1987) wurde 60 Jahre nach Alf Lechner (1925-2017) geboren. Trotzdem weisen ihre künstlerischen Positionen vielschichtige Bezüge auf. In Stankes Malereien ist die Leinwand nicht bloß ein Bildträger. Seine Arbeiten sind vielmehr räumliche Gebilde aus Nessel, Keilrahmen und Farbe. Stanke faltet, schneidet, biegt, stapelt und durchbohrt die Leinwände und erprobt die körperlichen Grenzen des Bildes, das er in den Raum ausdehnt. Seine Werke sind teils Bild, teils Relief oder Skulptur, und erst im Zusammenspiel dieser unterschiedlichen "Teile", wie Stanke selbst sie nennt, ergibt sich am Ende das vollständige Bild.Hierin besteht die vordergründigste Verbindung zu Lechner, dessen Skulpturen ebenfalls als Fragmente eines kontinuierlichen Arbeitsprozesses betrachtet werden müssen. Zentral hierfür ist seine Praxis der Teilung, in deren Folge räumliche Beziehungen zwischen den Fragmenten und den Betrachter*innen erforscht und materialbezogene Herstellungsprozesse offengelegt werden können, ganz im Sinne seiner Maxime: "Durch Teilen ist es möglich, mehr über das Ganze zu erfahren."Dieser Ansatz klingt im Titel der Kataloges teil's teil's wider, der als Aufforderung zu verstehen ist, tiefer in Materien einzutauchen. Darüber hinaus suggeriert der Titel auch, dass etwas nicht klar zuordbar ist und verweist so auf die Zusammenstellung von Stankes und Lechners Arbeiten und die gemischte Natur des Ausstellungskonzepts.

Die Publikation präsentiert Skulpturen, Videos, Leinwände und Teppiche von Halil Altindere und erscheint anlässlich seiner Einzelausstellung in der Pilot Galerie in Istanbul (23.11.2023 - 20.01.2024).Halil Altindere (*1971 in Mardin/Türkei, lebt und arbeitet in Istanbul) setzt sich in seinen Arbeiten häufig mit konkreten politischen Inhalten auseinander, auch mit Bezug auf seine kurdischen Wurzeln und der Multikulturalität in der türkischen Gesellschaft. In seinen Werken beschäftigt er sich mit einer Vielzahl an Fragestellungen und beleuchtet Methoden des Widerstands gegen Macht und Unterdrückung, wobei er sich mit Themen wie Subkulturen, Geschlechterrollen, Popkultur oder der Struktur und Macht von Kunst- und Finanzsystemen beschäftigt.Die Publikation versammelt Arbeiten der letzten drei Jahre, in denen zunehmend die Grenzen zwischen Kunst und Leben Altinderes verschwimmen. Die Folgen der Pandemie, die die Welt erschütterte, finden ebenso Widerhall in seinen Werken wie die neue Vater-Rolle des Künstlers. Darüber hinaus macht Altindere zunehmend von den Möglichkeiten künstlicher Intelligenz Gebrauch und setzt KI-Technologie als eine Art persönlichen Assistenten ein, der eine aktive Rolle im Produktionsprozess seiner Werke einnimmt.

Nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg wurde die Kavallerieschule Hannover wurde Zentrum des gesammelten reiterlichen Könnens und Wissens weltweit. In diese Zeit fiel die Neuauflage der Reitvorschrift H. Dv. 12 von 1926. Diese Ausgabe galt die beste Ausgabe der H. Dv. 12.Durch die Umstrukturierungen in der Wehrmacht benötigte man, ab Mitte der 30er Jahre, eher berittene Infanterie, als eine kampffähige Kavallerie. Durch diese Umstrukturierung, der Einführung der Wehrpflicht im Jahre 1935 und der auf zwei Jahre verkürzten Wehrdienstzeit, musste die Reitvorschrift (1937) angepasst werden. Eine schnellere Ausbildung der Pferde und Reiter auf abgesenktem Niveau stand jetzt im Vordergrund. Das Ziel war die sichere Beherrschung des Pferdes im Gelände sowie die Fähigkeit der Pferde Tagesmärsche von durchschnittlich 75 Km zu absolvieren. Pferd und Reiter wurden nur noch bis L Niveau ausgebildet, statt vormals bis M/S.Die H. Dv. 12 von 1937 wurde nachdem Krieg als Grundlage der FN Richtlinien für Reiten und Fahren herangezogen. Deshalb ist sie wertvoll, da man im Vergleich zu den Neuauflagen der FN Richtlinien, die Veränderungen der Reitlehre nachvollziehen kann.

Leadership provides horses with choices that allow them to make correct decisions, instill them with self-assurance, and foster automatic compliance due to the horse's willingness to follow your instructions.The Clydesdale breed originated in the 18th century to fulfill the need for robust and enduring draft horses in the agricultural, transportation, and industrial sectors. The indigenous draught horses of Scotland, along with Flemish stallions, were brought in from Flanders. These characteristics collectively influenced the Clydesdale's unique appearance, imposing size, and muscular physique.It is widely recognized that reading is the most genuine method to enhance one's vocabulary effectively. However, instead of hastily rushing to the library and attempting to absorb the extensive works of Dickens, Steinbeck, Orwell, and Tolkien just two weeks before your exam, I suggest giving Five Minute Vocab a chance.

Horse grooming is a crucial and personal part of caring for horses beyond just keeping their physical look in good condition.

Avoid using frivolous memory methods to forget them during the test. Do not be deceived by the falsehood that a dictionary is the exclusive means of acquiring new word definitions.

This book, written by a seasoned ethologist, utilizes up-to-date research in equine ethology to provide practical insights that help enhance the bond between horse and owner. The primary emphasis is deciphering equine body language and signals to augment comprehension and strengthen the connection between humans and horses.The value of a horse typically depends on its ancestry, build or "conformation," and ability to complete specific tasks. Pedigree signifies the deliberate breeding of particular features. Having genetic solid lines for a specific feature or performance significantly enhances the value of a horse. Therefore, it is expected that the price of the horse will be higher if the characteristic is essential to you or the seller. Similarly, specific physical characteristics are significant for display and utilization. Consequently, horses with desirable conformation for a particular purpose will command a higher price. A horse's performance of desired tasks, which includes its training and behavior, generally has a more significant impact on its value than its pedigree or conformation. The user's text is empty.

Ever since his studies with Joseph Beuys and Erwin Heerich, since his first exhibitions - for instance at 'Kippenberger's Office' in 1979 - Meuser (b. Essen 1947, lives and works in Karlsruhe) has been a solitaire. His sculptures are unyielding and unruly, just as much as they are vulnerable and tender. They are witty and heart-touchingly charming.Meuser finds his material in the scrapyard. Confidently and empathically, he reinstates form and dignity to the remnants and vestiges of industrial society. As a romantic, he grants things a life of their own and turns them into self-reliant protagonists, once more. Unwaveringly, he works to re-poetize a standardized and maltreated world.The lavishly designed monograph is published on the occasion of Meuser's 75th birthday, presenting works and exhibitions from the past ten years. Eight international authors and scholars create a dazzling mosaic and reveal how Meuser boldly holds his own in face of Duchamp, Minimalism, and Social Sculpture. An open-ended outlook.Meuser studied 1968-1976 at Art Academy, Düsseldorf with Joseph Beuys and Erwin Heerich. 1991 he received the ars viva award. 1992-2015 professorship at Academy of Fine Art, Karlsruhe.Since 1976, numerous institutional solo and group exhibitions and works in international collections: Bundeskunsthalle, Bonn; Deichtorhallen, Hamburg; documenta IX / Fridericianum, Kassel; Fundació Joan Miró, Barcelona; Joanneum, Graz; Kunsthalle Düsseldorf; Museum of Contemporary Art, Monterrey; Martin-Gropius-Bau, Berlin; Museum Abteiberg, Mönchengladbach; Museum Folkwang, Essen; Museum moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig, Vienna; Museum Morsbroich, Leverkusen; Rijksmuseum Twenthe, Enschede; Sakip Sabanci Museum, Istanbul; Städtische Galerie, Karlsruhe; Vanhaerents Art Collection, Brussels; ZKM | Museum für Neue Kunst, Karlsruhe.

Kann Kunst heilen? Die Welt zu einem besseren Ort machen? Zenita Komad möchte mit ihrer Arbeit genau das. Sie wendet sich mit außergewöhnlichen grafischen und skulpturalen Werken, Objektbildern, Installationen und Inszenierungen, mit klaren oder rätselhaften, kraftvollen, tiefgründigen, poetischen und oft auch witzigen Botschaften an die Menschen, um auf der Basis einer Verständigung zwischen unterschiedlichen Überzeugungen, Weltanschauungen und interreligiöser Spiritualität für eine gemeinsame Verantwortung für die Welt zu werben - denn alles steht mit allem in Verbindung.NIE WIEDER KRIEG!

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “A vivid portrait of America’s greatest stallion, the larger-than-life men who raced and bred him, and the dramatic times in which they lived.”—Geraldine Brooks, author of HorseThe powerful true story of the champion Thoroughbred racehorse who gained international fame in the tumultuous Civil War–era South, and became the most successful sire in American racing historyThe early days of American horse racing were grueling. Four-mile races, run two or three times in succession, were the norm, rewarding horses who brandished the ideal combination of stamina and speed. The stallion Lexington, named after the city in Kentucky where he was born, possessed these winning qualities, which pioneering Americans prized.  Lexington shattered the world speed record for a four-mile race, showing a war-torn nation that the extraordinary was possible even in those perilous times. He would continue his winning career until deteriorating eyesight forced his retirement in 1855. But once his groundbreaking achievements as a racehorse ended, his role as a sire began. Horses from his bloodline won more money than the offspring of any other Thoroughbred—an annual success that led Lexington to be named America’s leading sire an unprecedented sixteen times.  Yet with the Civil War raging, Lexington’s years at a Kentucky stud farm were far from idyllic. Confederate soldiers ran amok, looting freely and kidnapping horses from the top stables. They soon focused on the prized Lexington and his valuable progeny. Kim Wickens, a lawyer and dressage rider, became fascinated by this legendary horse when she learned that twelve of Thoroughbred racing's thirteen Triple Crown winners descended from Lexington. Wickens spent years meticulously researching the horse and his legacy—and with Lexington, she presents an absorbing, exciting account that transports readers back to the raucous beginning of American horse racing and introduces them to the stallion at its heart.

Ginny Hajdukiewicz was not the stereotypical girl whose enthusiasm for horses waned after a few years. At twenty-three she had achieved her ambition to have her own riding centre, and in 1982 she moved to Wales with her 'misfit' horses and set up a trekking centre.Always deeply concerned regarding the welfare of horses and ponies, and distraught at the treatment of the 'wild' ponies that were sold at market, in 1985 she formed The Lluest Horse and Pony Trust.Ginny often wrote about her life and work - sometimes on scraps of paper. Her lively accounts collected here feature not only her horses and ponies, but also her beloved dogs, cats, chickens and even Herbie the crow. And, of course, they include many of the people she met over her short life, which she sadly lost to cancer when she was only thirty-eight.Have the box of tissues at the ready, and prepare to both laugh and cry as you read.Ginny would be proud that the Trust continues its work, rescuing and rehabilitating horses, ponies and donkeys. The proceeds from this book will go to the Trust, as she would have wished.Collected and edited, and with an introduction and additional material, by Barbara Metcalfe & Stella Gratrix.

Neva "Grandma" Burright was born on a race track in 1883, and her 57-year career as a harness racing driver spanned the county fair circuit to the early years of pari-mutuel harness racing after World War II. During the 1940s and 1950s, major newspapers from Boston to Honolulu reported on Grandma Burright's exploits as a harness racing driver. In 1943, she became the first woman to win a Grand Circuit race. In doing so, she defeated the legendary Sep Palin, "the aristocrat of drivers," who had the financial backing of automobile heiress Frances Dodge Johnson. During that Grand Circuit race in Delaware, Ohio, Grandma Burright and Luckyette, her bay gelding, also shocked the harness racing world by setting a record for women drivers over a half-mile track with a time of 2:04 ¿. In addition to Grandma Burright's victories on race tracks, general audience magazines such as Coronet, Esquire, Hit!, Life, and Look magazines featured her in articles. She also appeared before millions on national television in 1954 and stumped the panelists on What's My Line?In Grandma Burright: The Queen of Harness Racing, Kevin Groenhagen explores Grandma Burright's legacy as a wife, mother, grandmother, and, of course, as a harness racing driver. He examines how a diminutive woman of modest means overcame numerous tragedies (the death of a husband, two grandsons, and two sons, all within 12 years) to become known as "The Queen of Harness Racing."

Seine Eltern waren der preußische Generalleutnant Henning von Heydebreck (1828 -1904) und dessen erster Ehefrau Anna, geborene von Colmar (1837 -1879).Er wurde insbesondere durch seine im Jahr 1935 beendete Bearbeitung (und sprachliche Modernisierung) des Standardwerks Gymnasium des Pferdes von Gustav Steinbrecht in dessen vierter Auflage einem breiten reiterlichen Publikum bekannt. In dem von ihm neu verfassten Nachwort verwies er auf den drohenden Untergang der klassischen Reitkunst: "Schaffen wir uns nicht ein Institut, das uns neue Meister heranbildet, so geht uns die Reitkunst unmerklich aber sicher verloren."Er heiratete am 10. April 1896 in Stettin Emilie Lichtenberg. Das Paar hatte mehrere Töchter.

English settler colonies introduced a new market structure to the Native peoples of the Chesapeake watershed. Alongside trade in goods, traders and merchants exchanged peoples for labor. The Eastern Shore of the Virginia colony provides an interesting case study that provides a clear picture of the importance of Native laborers alongside African and English laborers in the early plantation economy. Power dynamics in colonial Virginia were characterized by social hierarchies, economic interests, and the exercise of authority by influential individuals. By examining cases of illegal indenture and enslavement of Native peoples by Colonel Edmund Scarburgh in the 17th century, one can see that Scarburgh emerges as an unstoppable vigilante both at the time and in historical memory, because of his accumulation of wealth and power through the Indigenous slave trade as well as his transatlantic trade interests. Physically, and in many ways legally, isolated from the rest of the Virginia colony, the case study presented herein serves as a window into the power machinations and ambitions of one man and his desire to build his plantation empire unchecked by any conventions or rules of law.
