"NOMAD TWO WORLDS traces the remarkable creative journey of internationally renowned Australian photographer Russell James through his fine art project, Nomad Two Worlds. This stunning photographic art book shows the progression of James' work on this project over the last decade. What began as a purely personal attempt to understand and interpret through photography the clash of ancient and modern cultures he witnessed growing up in Australia, has today become a powerful expression of partnership, reconciliation, and economic opportunity in action through art, music and film. Nomad Two Worlds aims to be a global example of true collaboration across deep cultural divides.NOMAD TWO WORLDS showcases James' artistic collaborations with a range of Indigenous Australian, Native American and Haitian artists. These artists have added their own evocative interpretations or "story" to James' images by hand, incorporating legends and concepts that relate directly to the thematic intent of the photographs using their chosen artform. The result is a striking collection of contemporary photography combined with more traditional artforms including painting, beading, textiles and sculpture.Some of the world's most beautiful and interesting people including Heidi Klum, Sir Richard Branson, The Black Eyed Peas, Adriana Lima, Miranda Kerr, Hugh Jackman and more, also agreed to be photographed for the collaborations. Overall, the collection is a celebration of cultural difference, and tries to challenge mainstream perceptions of ancient and threatened cultures, whilst creating a platform for dialogue and education. Since its launch in New York in 2009 with the support of Donna Karan, Hugh Jackman and the Australian Government, the Nomad Two Worlds art collection has been previewed in Melbourne, Los Angeles, Berlin, Haiti, Washington, D.C. and London.Nomad Two Worlds has now evolved into a socially responsible global business that celebrates the beauty and rich cultural history of Indigenous and marginalised people worldwide, whilst bringing long-term economic benefit to the artists and communities James' collaborates with. It has been hailed as an exemplary business model, promoting economic development through artistic collaboration"

Angleterre, 1997, quelques semaines avant l'�lection de Tony Blair � la t�te du gouvernement travailliste. Gottfleish, un marchand d'art peu scrupuleux, est convaincu que Sidonie Keene, une d�licate lady anglaise de quatre-vingt-cinq ans, poss�de encore, soigneusement dissimul�es, des toiles originales de sa soeur Naomi, disparue cinquante ans plus t�t dans la pauvret�, la solitude et la honte. Sa cote atteint des sommets. Alors que Sidonie assiste aux fun�railles d'un de ses plus proches amis, Gottfleish envoie Ticky, son �me damn�e, �valuer la fortune qui repose derri�re les rideaux du cottage. Ticky ne se doute pas qu'en fouillant les tiroirs de la dame il va r�veiller de lourds secrets, n�s de l'intimit� de Naomi et de Sidonie avec les caciques du IIIe Reich. A travers le regard d'une ancienne mondaine des ann�es trente, Russell James rouvre un chapitre t�n�breux de l'histoire du XXe si�cle. Par la chronique d'une jeunesse brillante aussi fascin�e que d�pass�e par le monstre nazi, et par le r�cit crois� de la menace sp�culative qui p�se peu � peu sur les biens, les souvenirs et la personne de cette vieille lady, il nous offre un roman noir d'une exceptionnelle tenue, un portrait dense et document� de la figure du Mal dans toutes ses ambigu�t�s.

The New National Gallery, Berlin, Kimbell Art Museum and Museum fur Kunsthandwerk in Frankfurt are striking examples of modern museum design, built in three different decades. The Berlin Gallery was Mies van der Rohe's last great building -- a 'temple' to art in glass and steel. Louis Kahn's Kimbell Art Museum is a building of severity and restraint, its architectural effects arising from rhythmical spaces and a refined treatment of materials. Richard Meier's Museum fur Kunsthandwerk is a subtle and intricate building of shifted grids and superimposed planes -- an interesting precursor to his Getty Center. By presenting these works together, one can examine the similarities and differences in approach taken by three renowned architects in designing buildings with successful interior museum spaces and exteriors that present a public message to the world.
