About this product
Product Information
In this remarkable, inspiring collection of essays, acclaimed writer and critic Olivia Laing makes a brilliant case for why art matters, especially in the turbulent political weather of the twenty first century. Funny Weather brings together a career's worth of Laing's writing about art and culture, examining its role in our political and emotional lives. She profiles Jean-Michel Basquiat and Georgia O'Keefe, interviews Hilary Mantel and Ali Smith, writes love letters to David Bowie and Freddie Mercury, and explores loneliness and technology, women and alcohol, sex and the body. With characteristic originality and compassion, she celebrates art as a force of resistance and repair, an antidote to a frightening political time. We're often told art can't change anything. Laing argues that it can. It changes how we see the world. It makes plain inequalities and it offers fertile new ways of living.

- 3***e (227)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem arrived as described, in perfect condition and in about a week. Well packaged in a large envelope and I thought it was well priced ... until I saw it elsewhere for half as much. Never mind, for a relatively low-priced item, I'm not too sore about paying more for this highly regarded tome. Good seller. Can recommended.
- c***c (463)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseA reliable and professional seller offering a wide range of items. Not always the cheapest option but certainly a store upon which you can depend. My goods were dispatched promptly, packaged appropriately and, upon receipt, found to be exactly as described. Communication throughout the process was good and I'd have no hesitation in purchasing from here in the future.Possibility (Wonder & Imagination) 500 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle by Paperblanks Hardco (#146371979206)
