It uses humor and everyday life to gently and non-threateningly expose children to the importance of appropriately expressing feelings. The clever use of the closet as a metaphor addresses a familiar and common experience many children have when confronted with overwhelming feelings. The authors invite children to engage in a process of cleaning as they go, little by little, which lends hope to an otherwise large goal. As children, and adults alike, embrace the important message of Jameon's Closet, we can expect maturity and well-being for all. Ceth Ashen, PhD Clinical Psychologist BOOK REVIEW https: \/\/readersfavorite.com\/book-review\/jameons-closet Reviewed by Jack Magnus for Readers' Favorite Jameon's Closet is an educational children's picture book written by Shauna Havlina and Leanne Richter. Jameon is not sure how he's going to clean out that closet in his bedroom. If it were an ordinary closet, he'd have no problem, but he's frightened of even opening the door to look inside. You see, he's been putting dirty socks and t-shirts, empty candy wrappers and anything else he didn't want to put or throw away inside that closet. Jameon's bedroom always looked so neat and tidy that his grandma would actually let him have extra time to play his games, but eventually she found out about the closet. All those stinky socks and t-shirts, combined with the fact that he had no clean socks left at all, made her suspicious. Now she wants that closet cleaned out. She's going to make it a bit easier for Jameon though. Grandma knows a guy named Jon, who is pretty good at figuring out how to clean closets. Jon's a counselor, and he showed Jameon how they could fix that closet just a little bit at a time -- and it worked! Richter and Havlina are licensed marriage and family therapists who've worked with traumatized kids and their families for over ten years. Their story, Jameon's Closet, provides kids and their caregivers with a helpful metaphor for helping kids release long suppressed feelings and emotions in slow, supportive and contained processes. The story explains to kids how storing up their memories and feelings is similar to Jameon's awful closet. The illustrations provided are bright, funny and lively, and they work perfectly with the upbeat and positive message of the story. Jameon's Closet is most highly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLeanne and Shauna are licensed marriage and family therapists working with youth in Los Angeles County.

Yet the weaving classes taught by Anni Albers, Trude Guermonprez, and six other faculty members are rarely mentioned or are often treated as mere craft lessons. This was far from the case: the weaving program was the school's most sophisticated and successful design program. About ten percent of all Black Mountain College students took at least one class in weaving, including specialists like textile designers Lore Kadden Lindenfeld and Else Regensteiner, as well as students from other disciplines, like artists Ray Johnson and Robert Rauschenberg and architects Don Page and Claude Stoller. Drawing upon a wealth of unpublished material and archival photographs, \u003ci\u003eWeaving at Black Mountain College \u003c\/i\u003erewrites history to show how weaving played a much larger role in the legendary art and design curriculum than previously assumed. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The book illustrates dozens of objects from private and public collections, many of which have never been shown in this context. Essays explore connections and networks fostered by Black Mountain weavers; the ways in which weaving at the college was linked to larger discourses about weaving and craft; and Bauhaus influences transmitted by way of Anni Albers. The book also includes works by five contemporary artists that connect and respond to the legacy of weaving at Black Mountain College today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Distributed for the Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eExhibition Schedule\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eBlack Mountain College Museum + Arts Center, Asheville, NC\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e (September 29, 2023-January 6, 2024) \u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichael Beggs \u003c\/b\u003eis a designer, artist, and independent scholar based in Berkeley, CA. \u003cb\u003eJulie J.

Archives now consist of not only documents and sites but also artworks, installations, museums, social media platforms, and mediated and mixed reality environments. Giannachi tracks the evolution of these diverse archival practices across the centuries. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eArchives today offer a multiplicity of viewing platforms to replay the past, capture the present, and map our presence. Giannachi uses archaeological practices to explore all the layers of the archive, analyzing Lynn Hershman Leeson's !Women Art Revolution project, a digital archive of feminist artists. She considers the archive as a memory laboratory, with case studies that include visitors' encounters with archival materials in the Jewish Museum in Berlin. She discusses the importance of participatory archiving, examining the \"multimedia roadshow\" \u003ci\u003eDigital Diaspora Family Reunion \u003c\/i\u003eas an example. She explores the use of the archive in works that express the relationship between ourselves and our environment, citing Andy Warhol and Ant Farm, among others. And she looks at the transmission of the archive through the body in performance, bioart, and database artworks, closing with a detailed analysis of Lynn Hershman Leeson's \u003ci\u003eInfinity Engine\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGabriella Giannachi is Professor of Performance and New Media and Director of the Centre for Intermedia at the University of Exeter.
