CAN'T WAIT...

Glittering Images: A Journey Through Art from Egypt to Star Wars (Pantheon), a new book by University Professor of Humanities and Media Studies Camille Paglia, is set to be published on October 16. According to Amazon.com, Glittering Images "leads us chronologically through the paintings, sculptures, architectural styles, performance pieces and digital art that have defined and transformed our visual world. She combines close analysis with background that situates each artist and image within its historical context — from an Egyptian tomb to Titian's 'Venus With a Mirror;' from an elegant French Rococo interior to Jackson Pollock's abstract 'Green Silver;' from Renee Cox's daring performance piece 'Chillin' with Liberty' to Eleanor Antin's amusing conceptual art project '100 Boots.'"
