¿Hay que obligar a los museos a devolver sus mármoles? ¿Es posible "descolonizar" nuestras galerías? ¿Debe caer Rodas? Desde el arte robado de Wakanda en Black Panther, pasando por el reciente compromiso de Emmanuel Macron con la restitución de obras de arte, hasta el provocador vídeo musical de Beyoncé y Jay Z filmado en el Louvre, la cuestión de descolonizar nuestra relación con el arte que nos rodea está ganando terreno rápidamente. La gente se está dando cuenta de la sórdida historia de las colecciones de arte de todo el mundo y está empezando a plantearse preguntas difíciles sobre cómo debería ser el futuro de los museos. En 'El cuadro completo', Alice Procter, historiadora del arte y guía del Uncomfortable Art Tour, ofrece un manual para deconstruir todo lo que creíamos saber sobre el arte y rellena los huecos con las historias que han quedado fuera del canon de la historia del arte durante siglos. El libro se divide en cuatro secciones cronológicas, bautizadas con los nombres de cuatro tipos diferentes de espacios artísticos: el Palacio, el aula, el memorial y el patio de recreo. Cada sección aborda las fascinantes y a menudo chocantes historias de cinco obras de arte diferentes, entre ellas el cuadro propagandístico que la Compañía de las Indias Orientales utilizó para justificar su control en la India; los cráneos maoríes mokomokai que fueron objeto de comercio y coleccionados por los europeos como "objetos de arte"; y la controvertida escultura contemporánea de Kara Walker Una sutileza, que planteó cuestiones sobre las interacciones "apropiadas" con el arte. A través de estas historias, Alice saca a la luz la narrativa colonial subyacente que acecha bajo la industria del arte actual y sugiere diferentes formas de ver y pensar el arte en el mundo moderno. 'El cuadro completo' es una provocación muy necesaria para analizar de forma más crítica las narrativas aceptadas sobre el arte, y repensar y alterar la forma en que interactuamos con los museos y galerías que lo exhiben. "Indagador, sin jerga y escrito con el ritmo de una novela policíaca... [Procter] disecciona la cultura museística occidental con tal furia forense que al lector le resultará difícil volver a ver esas instituciones de la misma manera." Financial Times 'Una obra inteligente, accesible y brillantemente estructurada que anima a los lectores a ir más allá de la gran arquitectura de las instituciones culturales y ver las problemáticas historias coloniales que hay detrás de ellas.' - Sumaya Kassim

Musicals are the most popular form of stage entertainment today, with the West End and Broadway dominated by numerous long-running hits. But for every Wicked or Phantom of the Opera, there are dozens of casualties that didn't fare quite so well. In this book, Julian Woolford explores the musical-theatre canon to explain why and how some musicals work, why some don't, and what you should (and shouldn't) do if you're thinking of writing your own. Drawing on his experience as a successful writer and director of musicals, and as a lecturer in writing musicals at the University of London, Woolford outlines every step of the creative process, from hatching the initial idea and developing a structure for the work, through creating the book, the music and the lyrics, and on to the crucial process of rewriting. He then guides the reader through getting a musical produced, with invaluable advice about generating future productions and sustaining a career. The book includes dozens of exercises to assist the novice writer in developing their craft, and detailed case studies of well-known musicals such as Les Misérables, The Sound of Music, Miss Saigon, Little Shop ofHorrors, Godspell and Evita. An essential guide for any writers (or would-be writers) of musicals, How Musicals Work is a fascinating insight for anyone interested in the art form or who has ever wondered what it takes to get from first idea to first night. 'A comprehensive and thoughtful guide to everything one must consider in order to write a successful musical. It would take at least a decade to learn all of this on one's own. Invaluable.' David Zippel (lyricist of City of Angels and The Woman in White) 'If anyone knows how musicals work (I'm not sure I do), this highly entertaining dissection of every aspect of that bewildering art form reveals that Julian Woolford does.' Tim Rice

An aging Messenger takes his armor out of storage for one last adventure. Six-year-old Briar Damaj, a half Krasian boy in the tiny village of Bogton, is used to being tormented by his siblings, and the villagers who call him Mudboy. When an attack leaves him orphaned, Briar feels he has no choice but to flee into the demon-infested bog where chances of survival seem hopeless. Ragen, a Messenger and friend of Briar's father, hunts for days through fetid swampland before giving the boy up for dead and retiring from his dangerous career. A decade later, Ragen receives news that Briar has survived against all odds, living alone in the wetlands like an animal. Unable to bear it, Ragen puts on his old armor and sets out for one last adventure to bring Briar home. A tale set between The Daylight War and The Skull Throne of Peter V.
