Hello from Heaven: A New Field of Research-After-Death Communication Confirms That Life and Love Are Eternal73 reviews
Bill Guggenheim, Judy Guggenheim

Bantam, 1997

Hello from Heaven
My wife passed away almost a year ago, and a friend gave me Hello from Heaven. The book helped me a lot, and I wanted to share it with my sons and a few friends. So thats why I bought several copies of it from you. The book gave me hope, at an extremely hopeless time of my life. Sincerely, Gary M. Rembold Sr.

Civil War: Marvel Universe5 reviews
Ed Brubaker, Paul Jenkins, ...

Marvel Comics, 2007

Now this is my kind of TPB!
I'm a huge fan of the Civil War series and I have to say that the Civil War: Marvel Universe book totally exceeded my expectations. The artwork amazed me and its not one, but many different styles by the very talented artists who brought the illustrations to life. Not only do you hear stories from great characters like She-Hulk, Venom, Iron Fist, Daredevil, Ant-Man, U.S. Agent, Captain Marvel, ...
  
  











  



  
Matthew Barney: The Cremaster Cycle18 reviews
Neville Wakefield, Matthew Barney

Guggenheim Museum, 2003

a question, really
Why would anyone pay hundreds for the H/C version, if a shiny, new paperback is only $40? Please enlighten this fool? Thanks!
  
  











  



  
Cai Guo-Qiang: I Want to Believe1 review
David Joselit, Miwon Kwon, ...

Guggenheim Museum, 2008

Still shots of Video Art
The book doesn't do the exhibit justice but the still shots of the video art are worth owning the book as the videos aren't available online.
  
  











  



  
Flash: The Fastest Man Alive - Full Throttle1 review
Marc Guggenheim, Tony Daniel

DC Comics, 2007

Blood runs cold
Warning! I will tell you all now that there are spoilers ahead, so if you're a Flash fan and have no idea what Full Throttle is about, all I'm going to say is pick it up. Anyway, did anyone else really think that Bart Allen's tenure as the Flash would be so short? Full Throttle collects the last issues of Flash: The Fastest Man Alive before the title shifted back to it's old numbering with ...
  
  











  



  
Amazing Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Vol. 110 reviews
Dan Slott, Marc Guggenheim

Marvel Comics, 2008

A new golden age of Spider-Man comics has begun
After years of darkness and misery, Amazing Spider-Man has finally returned to form in "Brand New Day". Everything that made Spider-Man popular in the first place is here: humor, a fantastic supporting cast, mystery, new villains, and spectacular artwork by the finest talent in the industry.

Richard Prince2 reviews
Nancy Spector, Glenn O'Brien, ...

Guggenheim Museum, 2007

A princely catalogue
Since I will not be lucky enough to see the exhibition at the Guggenheim, I am very happy to be able to say that this is one of the best art books I have ordered so far. It lists and illustrates the bulk of Prince's major series (the original ad pictures from the 1970's, stripped of all text, the cowboy photos,the joke paintings, the nurse paintings,the latest 2006 "De Kooning" paintings which ...
  
  











  



  
Confessions Of an Art Addict6 reviews
Peggy Guggenheim

Ecco, 1997

LOOK, THERE'S A LONG PRIAPUS ON YOUR HORSE!
Here's the story of a woman that knew them all, felt the earth move under her feet with many of them, and bought their art for pretty much nothing. She recognized them when they were starting, and this makes her a Princess. This book is her equivalent to Gore Vidal's "Palimpsest" and Lillian Hellman's "Pentimento". This is one of those books that almost transports you to a long gone era, ...
  
  











  



  
Civil War: Wolverine15 reviews
Marc Guggenheim

Marvel Comics, 2007

Best Civil War tie-in
Wolverine is still one of the best characters in the Marvel Universe - so when civil war errupts, you know wolvie's going to do what he does best. This tie-in has him tracking down Nitro, who set off the chain of events leading to registration. While on the trail Wolverine gets into some pretty nasty situations - LIKE GETTING BURNED ALIVE!! The art work is great - for some reason I really ...
  
  











  



  
Singular Forms (Sometimes Repeated)
Agnes Martin, Drew Daniel, ...

Guggenheim Museum, 2004

Singular Forms (Sometimes Repeated) examines the impulse toward reduction, restraint, and lucidity in postwar art. Drawing on the Guggenheim's exceptional holdings of minimalist painting and singular sculpture, Singular Forms begins with Robert Rauschenberg's historic White Painting (1951), a stark, monochrome canvas. This seminal work establishes twin trajectories in the development of contemporary art: the elimination of all extraneous details ...
  
  











  



  
Mistress of Modernism: The Life of Peggy Guggenheim8 reviews
Mary V. Dearborn

Houghton Mifflin, 2004

great overview of The life and times of modern art lover, Peggy Guggenhiem
This is an enjoyable read. I was interested in reading it after reading "The Rape of Euorpa" and "Duveen" it made sense to wonder what had become of the art/artists that were rescued from the WWII Nazi-occupation of Europe.
  
  











  



  
Art Lover: A Biography of Peggy Guggenheim7 reviews
Anton Gill

Harper Perennial, 2003

A Life Devoted to Sex and to Art
The name Guggenheim is well known among museums and among art collectors. One thinks that all those Guggenheims were pretty well off, but everything is relative, and there were rich Guggenheims and poor ones. Benjamin Guggenheim in 1912 dressed in his best formal evening clothes, heroically helped women to climb into the lifeboats of the _Titanic_, and then drowned. He left half a million ...
  
  











  



  
Sugimoto: Portraits3 reviews
Carol Armstrong, Tracey Bashkoff

Guggenheim Museum, 2003

Yet another Art Form
This elegant and eloquent collection of "portraits" is a compendium of photographs of sculpted wax figures by Sugimoto. As if the idea of electing to photograph these historically garbed figures weren't sufficient to merit attention, Sugimoto has enhanced these haunting images with sensitive lighting and positioning on the lens so that it appears he has gathered models, dresssed them in costume, ...
  
  











  



  
Hello from Heaven6 reviews
Bill Guggenheim

Bantam, 1996

Hello From Heaven
This book is wonderful. It provides hope and comfort for those who have lost someone dear to them. The author sensitively embraces a subject which is controversial. It is an inspiring read. Just beautiful.
  
  











  



  
Wolverine: The Death Of Wolverine Premiere HC (Wolverine)2 reviews
Marc Guggenheim, Jason Aaron

Marvel Comics, 2008

Interesting to a point
Wolverine dead? Marvel would never kill off one of their most iconic characters would they? On second thought, don't answer that. All kidding aside, The Death of Wolverine isn't exactly what it sounds like it is, but instead finds Logan close to meeting his maker. Written by Marc Guggenheim (The Flash, Blade), this storyarc flirts with the idea of what exactly happens to Logan's soul if and ...
  
  











  



  
Wolverine: The Death Of Wolverine TPB (Wolverine)1 review
Marc Guggenheim, Jason Aaron, ...

Marvel Comics, 2008

An average Wolverine story
A mystical story about the state of Wolverine's soul and how he is able to rejoin his body everytime it regenerates. I love Wolverine this one is an average story and takes Wolverine to the mystical realm a place you wouldn't expect him to ever be. It's different I'll give them that.
  
  











  



  
Foto: Modernity in Central Europe, 1918-19452 reviews
Matthew S. Witkovsky

Thames & Hudson, 2007

Avant-garde and popular culture
The previous reviewer does not justice to this beautiful book. It is not only about collage, as it is simplistically described, but about how photography was established as a modern art form. It shows how it was used creatively in Central Europe. There are some wonderful findings of lesser known artists as well as more familiar names, and most of them look incredibly contemporary (young artists ...
