Bonnard
Reviewing the work of Bonnard, one of the best-loved artists of the modern period, this book draws insights into his personality from his paintings. It is published on the occasion of a retrospective exhibition at the Tate Gallery, London, in February 1998. Bonnard's association with the Nabis, especially Vuillard, inspired him to develop Impressionist notions, by treating light and colour in an entirely fresh way. Influenced by Japanese prints, Bonnard's style evolved into decorative intimate evocations of interiors; in his mature work, the rich and sometimes near-abstract compositions of the 1930s and 1940s recall Matisse's monumental treatments. His best-known figure paintings, the many intimate portraits of his wife Marthe, express profoundly human concerns, characteristic of all Bonnard's painting.

Benzino Boulevard
Han är här med sin tredje diktsamling. Han tar oss med till platser som någon av de cyniska makthavarna döpt till utanförskapet; periferi och centrum har liksom bytt plats. Gatuduvans poesi bygger på erfarenhet och det är tungt ibland. Ändå ser vi hoppet, ljuset i tunnelns slut. Det är en egenskap som Jack Kerouac i sin ungdom tillskrev en äkta poet. Gatuduvan är 2000-talets svenska Beat-poet. Vi kan eller vill kanske inte riktigt känna igen oss. Men allt finns där, på gator, i parker, i hyreshu
Salvation boulevard
Salvation Boulevard är en vass och stjärnspäckad komedi med Greg Kinnear, Jennifer Connelly, Marisa Tomei, Ed Harris och Pierce Brosnan som den egocentrerade pastorn Dan Day, som tvingas ta till ljusskygga metoder för att skydda sig och sin kyrka. Filmen är baserad på boken med samma titel av Larry Beinhart, som även skrev den hyllade Wag the Dog. Pastor Dan Day ser sin kyrka lika mycket som en plats för bön som ett affärsimperium. Samtidigt som han håller på att bygga den kristna staden City on a Hill tar han sig an den uttalat ateistiska professorn Paul Blaylock i en debatt. Men det hela går överstyr med ytterst tragiska resultat. Den nyomvända Carl blir vittne till det hela och det dröjer inte länge förrän pastor Day inser att han är den perfekta syndabocken.
