The evolution and philosophy of color field painting, as revealed by four masters of the movement

Developed at the tail end of the abstract expressionist movement, color field painting is distinguished by pure, unmodulated areas of color, flat, two-dimensional space, and large, often irregularly shaped canvases. The genre is often associated with American painting, but was actually embraced by an international group of artists. Four of the most exciting of those practitioners are the focus of this penetrating study. Michael Auping sees the work of each of these artists as representing a different stage in the development of abstract painting in the 1950s and 1960s. He comments, "To my mind Rothko draws back the curtains, if you will, on the opening up of this space. Newman emphatically `declares' an almost totemic space, while Fontana literally slices through the picture's plane with a razor, and Klein, as he pronounced it, leaps into the void." Illustrated with color images of the artists' seminal works, Declaring Space shows how each painter made his own individual mark in a new realm of abstract art..

• A 2006 survey revealed that two thirds of Americans consider themselves “dissatisfied with the way things are going in the U.S.”
• In recent polls, 60 to 80 percent of registered voters say they want an independent presidential candidate.
• Independent voters now constitute the largest segment of the American electorate.

America is at a political crossroads. We are growing alienated from the two major parties, which are dominated by ideologues and offer simplistic solutions, with candidates who think only in terms of how to frame issues–often irrelevant “hot-button” issues–in order to get elected. Meanwhile, voters tend to crave real solutions to the real problems we face–energy independence, affordable health care, the environment, jobs, sustainable national security. And increasingly those voters want change and they want it now, yearning for leaders who understand the tough problems, confront them head-on, and can offer practical solutions without kowtowing to lockstep partisan interests.

A behind-the-scenes force in American politics for more than thirty years who has worked with, among others, Ed Koch, Jon Corzine, and Michael Bloomberg, political consultant Douglas E. Schoen now makes a bold argument: that the 2008 presidential election offers an unprecedented opportunity for the right third-party ticket. In Declaring Independence, Schoen discusses major
trends–voter dissatisfaction, lengthening campaign seasons, networking and fund-raising on the Internet, demographic shifts, fundamental changes in how Americans view their leaders–that are opening the door to more independent candidates and radically transforming how all candidates present themselves to the electorate and citizenry.

The numbers don’t lie: We are a nation of political moderates who want smart, workable solutions to our serious problems. Largely as a result of media attention, the current cynical and dysfunctional political system divides us into red and blue Americas–and in turn makes government less responsive, efficient, and effective. Americans want to see results; they don’t care whether those results come from Republicans or Democrats or people outside the two old-school parties. This is the first major book to study and analyze the large-scale trends and minor developments that could pave the way to a successful third-party presidential candidacy. Clearheaded, optimistic, and filled with incisive commentary from a respected authority on campaign politics, Declaring Independence offers a cogent glimpse at a transformed near future of American politics and government.


Advance praise for Declaring Independence
“The two-party system in America is breaking down, and Doug Schoen’s new book, Declaring Independence, explains why. This is an in-depth look at why the American people are so fed up with partisanship, and where we, as a nation, go from here.”
–Michael R. Bloomberg, mayor of New York City

“It’s Independents’ Day in America, and Doug Schoen works the numbers in this persuasive book to prove that anxious moderates can do more than swing elections. They are poised to smash the two-party system and give us an independent president as early as this year.”
–Jonathan Alter, senior editor, Newsweek, author of The Defining Moment

“Aptly titled, Declaring Independence is a convincing exploration by a learned observer of the forces propelling–and the urgent need for–political reform.”
–Bob Kerrey, former Nebraska senator and governor, president, the New School.

Advancing the Kingdom is a Christian worldview Bible study workbook It was written and laid out so as to make it easily understandable to the average Christian layman. It addresses many ideas of a philosophical and theological nature, but it expresses these ideas in a manner that is enjoyable to read. The book is illustrated throughout with pictures, charts, graphs and the like. Each chapter concludes with a series of questions and scripture references to study and short answers to each of the questions. It is perfect for small group Bible studies, and personal study, or for use as a suppliment to curriculum for high school or college students.

Advancing the Kingdom seeks to show how ideas and philosophies effect cultures. When societies are built on Godly Biblical principles, we have free and moral communities. When we allow godless humanistic principles to invade any part of our culture, the end result is oppressive immoral society. In the past century many of the ideas that were haralded as the beginning of a new society have done nothing more than lead us down a road of disintigrating morals, loss of freedom and tolorence of behavior that was previously unthinkable. As we look at the crumbling structure of American culture, it is easy to lose hope and give up the next generation for lost. But, Donald Schanzenbach offers a refreshing look into Scripture that shows that there is hope. There is hope because Christ has given us a mandate to be Kingdom builders on earth. We are to be unashamedly building a culture that is expressly Christian. The problem today is that Christians have been so consumed by the philosophies of the world that they can no longer even identify anti-biblical ideas, let alone come up with a way to fight against them. This book will bring the reader to an understanding of some of the key ideas that have ignited the vast cultural shifts of the past century. It will walk the reader through 16 areas of study and social concern such as History, Economics, Psychology, Civil Law, the Arts, and many more. Upon reading each of these chapters the reader will be able to see the origins of each area of study as well as the foundations for a Biblical view of the topic.

If we as Christians are ever to regain our influence in the cultural arena, we must be willing to do things differently than the world and proclaim that God's way is the best..

The political practice of "declaring victory and coming home" has provided a false and dangerous domestic impression of great success for U.S. unilateral and multilateral interventions in failing and failed states around the world. The reality of such irresponsibility is that the root causes and the violent consequences of contemporary intranational conflict are left to smolder and reignite at a later date with the accompanying human and physical waste. This book discusses why it is incumbent on the international community and individual powers involved in dealing with the chaos of the post-Cold War world to understand that such action requires a long-term, holistic, and strategic approach. The intent of such an approach is to create and establish the proven internal conditions that can lead to a mandated peace and stability--with justice. The key elements that define those conditions at the strategic level include: (1) the physical establishment of order and the rule of law; (2) the isolation of belligerents; (3) the regeneration of the economy; (4) the shaping of political consent; (5) fostering peaceful conflict resolution processes; (6) achieving a complete unity of effort toward stability; and (7) establishment and maintenance of a legitimate civil society. These essential dimensions of contemporary global security and stability requirements comprise a "new" paradigm that will, hopefully, initiate the process of rethinking both problem and response..
