Jennifer Johnston: How Many Miles to Babylon?

How Many Miles to Babylon?


Description

Alec and Jerry shouldn't have been friends: Alec's life was one of privilege, while Jerry's was one of toil. But this hardly mattered to two young men whose shared love of horses brought them together and whose whole lives lay ahead of them. When war breaks out in 1914, both Jerry and Alec sign up - yet for quite different reasons. On the fields of Flanders they find themselves standing together, but once again divided: as officer and enlisted man. And it is there, surrounded by mud and chaos and death, that one of them makes a fateful decision whose consequences will test their friendship and loyalty to breaking point.

As the battle between Shuri and Jin intensifies, Anna and Kite remain imprisoned. Meanwhile, Jio and Ball prepare for their battle. Jio is an amazing O.P.T., and Ball is stronger than anyone expected...but their opponent is fierce. Will Jio have to rely on the dark power inside him in order to win? Spieker argues that the use of archives by such contemporary artists as Hiller, Richter, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Walid Raad, and Boris Mikhailov responds to and continues this attack on the nineteenth-century archive and its objectification of the historical process. Spieker considers archivally driven art in relation to changing media technologies -- the typewriter, the telephone, the telegraph, film. And he connects the archive to a particularly modern visuality, showing that the avant-garde used the archive as something of a laboratory for experimental inquiries into the nature How Many Miles to Babylon? free pdf of vision and its relation to time. The Big Archive offers us the first critical monograph on an overarching motif in twentieth-century art.
