Great Again - Újra naggyá tesszük Amerikát
Milyen érzés, hogy megnyertem az elnökválasztást? Csodálatos. Ezért megérte, hogy annyi nehézséggel kerültem szembe, és bár tudom, hogy még nagyon sok van előttem is, az is mind megéri majd, azért, hogy szolgálhatom az országot, amelyre olyan hihetetlenül büszke vagyok. Hálás vagyok, amiért megkaptam ezt a lehetőséget, és Lincoln elnök "talán"-ja valósággá vált számomra. Az Egyesült Államok megérdemli a lehető legjobb vezetést, és én készen állok rá, hogy mindent beleadjak. Hihetetlen áldás, hogy ebben a rendkívüli országban élhetünk, s nekem gondom lesz rá, hogy ne hagyjon el bennünket a szerencse. Együtt naggyá fogjuk tenni Amerikát."
Donald Trump az Egyesült Államok negyvenötödik elnöke. A választási kampány alatt jelent meg a könyve, amelyben összefoglalta politikai nézeteit, elképzeléseit, terveit. Most az egész világ nagy érdeklődéssel várja, hogy mit akar és mit tud megvalósítani belőlük.

The Great Gatsby
In 1922, F. Scott Fitzgerald announced his decision to write "something new--something extraordinary and beautiful and simple + intricately patterned." That extraordinary, beautiful, intricately patterned, and above all, simple novel became The Great Gatsby, arguably Fitzgerald's finest work and certainly the book for which he is best known. A portrait of the Jazz Age in all of its decadence and excess, Gatsby captured the spirit of the author's generation and earned itself a permanent place in American mythology. Self-made, self-invented millionaire Jay Gatsby embodies some of Fitzgerald's--and his country's--most abiding obsessions: money, ambition, greed, and the promise of new beginnings. "Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that's no matter--tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.... And one fine morning--" Gatsby's rise to glory and eventual fall from grace becomes a kind of cautionary tale about the American Dream.
It's also a love story, of sorts, the narrative of Gatsby's quixotic passion for Daisy Buchanan. The pair meet five years before the novel begins, when Daisy is a legendary young Louisville beauty and Gatsby an impoverished officer. They fall in love, but while Gatsby serves overseas, Daisy marries the brutal, bullying, but extremely rich Tom Buchanan. After the war, Gatsby devotes himself blindly to the pursuit of wealth by whatever means--and to the pursuit of Daisy, which amounts to the same thing. "Her voice is full of money," Gatsby says admiringly, in one of the novel's more famous descriptions. His millions made, Gatsby buys a mansion across Long Island Sound from Daisy's patrician East Egg address, throws lavish parties, and waits for her to appear. When she does, events unfold with all the tragic inevitability of a Greek drama, with detached, cynical neighbor Nick Carraway acting as chorus throughout. Spare, elegantly plotted, and written in crystalline prose, The Great Gatsby is as perfectly satisfying as the best kind of poem.

"Now we have an American masterpiece in its final form: the original crystal has shaped itself into the true diamond. This is the novel as Fitzgerald wished it to be, and so it is what we have dreamed of, sleeping and waking." -- James Dickey

The Great Gatsby is a novel by the American author F. Scott Fitzgerald. First published on April 10, 1925, it is set on Long Island's North Shore and in New York City during the summer of 1922.
The novel takes place following the First World War. American society enjoyed prosperity during the "roaring" 1920s as the economy soared. At the same time, Prohibition, the ban on the sale and manufacture of alcohol as mandated by the Eighteenth Amendment, made millionaires out of bootleggers. After its republishing in 1945 and 1953, it quickly found a wide readership and is today widely regarded as a paragon of the Great American Novel, and a literary classic. The Great Gatsby has become a standard text in high school and university courses on American literature in countries around the world, and is ranked second in the Modern Library's lists of the 100 Best Novels of the 20th Century.

Nelson Willie - The Great Divide LP
Willie Hugh Nelson (narodený 29. apríla 1933) je americký spevák, skladateľ, hudobník, politický aktivista a herec. Bol jednou z hlavných postáv outlaw country, subžánru country hudby, ktorý sa vyvinul koncom 60. rokov ako reakcia na konzervatívne obmedzenia zvuku z Nashvillu. Kritický úspech jeho albumu Shotgun Willie (1973) v kombinácii s kritickým a komerčným úspechom skladieb Red Headed Stranger (1975) a Stardust (1978) urobili z Nelsona jedného z najuznávanejších umelcov country hudby. Nelson hral vo viac ako 30 filmoch, bol spoluautorom niekoľkých kníh a bol zapojený do aktivizmu za používanie biopalív a legalizáciu marihuany. "The Great Divide" je 50. štúdiový album, ktorý vydal v roku 2002. Obsahuje niekoľko duetov a hudobných spoluprác s umelcami ako Rob Thomas z Matchbox Twenty, Lee Ann Womack, Kid Rock, Sheryl Crow, Brian McKnight a Bonnie Raitt. Z albumu vznikli dva hitparádové singly „MendocinoCounty Line“ a „Maria (Shut Up and Kiss Me)“, ktoré sa dostali na 22. a 41. miesto v rebríčkoch Hot Country Songs.

The Little Man´s Great journey
Knihu Jiřího Stacha a Lenky Uhlířové vydalo nakladatelství Meander v roce 2008. Jedinečný příběh doplněný o autentické fotografie ze světa Malého Pána získal mnohá ocenění včetně nominace Magnesia Litera na Objev roku. Režisér Radek Beran příběh zpra
coval jako loutkový film za pomoci Výtvarníka Františka Antonína Skály. Ve filmu Malý Pán, který přijde do kin letos na jaře, budou nitě a drátky přiznané, takže divák uvidí, jak se loutky vodí. Žádná animovaná kouzla, jen reálně vytvořené kulisy a r
ekvizity. Velký vliv na režiséra Berana měla i tvorba Jana Švankmajera. Právě u příležitosti uvedení filmu do českých i slovenských kin připravujeme druhé vydání knihy, která se stala prvotní inspirací pro film, avšak také samostatným dílem, který po
hyblivý obraz v mnohém doplňuje. Malý pán si žije spokojeně ve svém malém světě, a když má dost nudlí, nikam se zvlášť nežene. Jenže má sen, a se sny bývají jak známo jen samé potíže nenechají člověka (ani malého) v klidu. Malý pán po probuzení překvapeně zjišťuje, že mu něco schází. A tak nerad opouští svůj útulný domov a vydá se na cestu, aby tomu přišel na kloub. Kdo ví, co na konci své velké cesty najde?

Umelecká kartografia v strede Európy - Art Cartography in the Centre of Europe 1960-2011
Medzinárodný výstavný projekt MAPY / MAPS (Umelecká kartografia v strede Európy 1960-2011) prezentuje známe, menej známe aj doteraz nevystavené diela autorov tvoriacich v 60. a 70. rokoch 20. storočia v oblasti konceptuálneho umenia a land-artu, v 80. rokoch aj v maľbe a fotografii, reflektuje neo-konceptuálne tendencie objektu a inštalácie v 90. rokoch 20. storočia. Výberovo predstavuje aj mladú generáciu autorov, ktorí mapu a princíp mapovania, sietí, ciest, myslenia a výskumu pomocou mapy často využívajú ako metaforu samotnej tvorby diela. Mapy sa stali v umení uplynulých päťdesiatych rokov dôležitým nositeľom kultúrnych významov ako médium utopických vízií, mentálnych archeológií, futurologických projektov či projekcií teritoriálnych alebo politických frustrácií.
V umeleckohistorickej sonde výstava sleduje na "mape" diel viac ako päťdesiatich autorov vzťah umelcov ku každodennej realite, počnúc prelínaním umenia a života v neoavantgardných tendenciách 60. rokov až po priamočiaru manifestáciu života v umení umožnenú novými médiami. Mapuje kartografické interpretácie na slovenskej výtvarnej scéne v konfrontácii s vybranými dielami autorov z ostatných krajín V4: Česka, Poľska a Maďarska.
Výstava je zostavená chronologicky, a zároveň tematicky. Na predstavených dielach možno sledovať uvažovanie umelcov o hraniciach, obmedzeniach, spôsoboch ich virtuálneho slobodného prekračovania či redefinovania, zmenách mierky či pozícií štátov a kontinentov. Autori a autorky v mapách zaznamenávajú svoje zážitky z fyzickej prítomnosti v krajine a orientácie v mestskom či prírodnom teréne. Umelecké mapy sú však aj nástrojom subjektívnych mentálnych kartografií. Metaforická podstata mapy poskytuje nekonečné možnosti vyjadrovania v tvorivých systémoch individuálnych mytológií, hľadanie stratených rajov, objavovanie bájnych a zakladanie nových krajín, či snívanie o vesmíre. Každý z autorov vyznačuje svojím zápisom predovšetkým vlastné súradnice na mape.
Katalóg je koncipovaný ako atlas umeleckých máp s odkazmi, témami a návodmi na ich kritické čítanie.

The Dream of Europe
How did the great European dream turn sour? And where do we go from here?
From the author of the internationally acclaimed In Europe, a stunning history of our present, examining the first two decades of this most fragile and fraught new millennium.
The great European project was built out of a common desire for peace, prosperity and freedom; a wish for a united Europe striving towards a common goal. The EU was to set an example: an arena for close cooperation, tackling crucial shared concerns from climate change to organized crime, promoting open borders and social security.
But the first two turbulent decades of this century have been times of rapid and profound change. From the shores of Lampedusa to Putin's Moscow, the continent threatens to tear itself apart. What's happened to Europe's optimism and euphoria? How has it given way to nostalgia, frustration and fear, the fragile European dream in danger of turning into a nightmare?
In The Dream of Europe, Geert Mak, one of Europe's best-loved commentators, charts the seismic events that have shaped people's lives over the past twenty years. Mak's monumental book In Europe defined the continent on the verge of a new millennium. The Dream of Europe brings us up to the present day, through the rocky expansion of the EU, the aftermath of 9/11 and terrorist attacks across Europe, the 2008 financial crash and the euro crisis, the tragedy of the migrant crisis in the Mediterranean, the rise of right-wing populism and Brexit.
Like no other, Mak blends history, politics and culture with the stories and experiences of the many Europeans he meets on his travels. He brings this continent to life, and asks what role does Europe play now, and how might we face our challenges together, in the spirit of solidarity and connection.
