Amazon.com Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but it also has a lot to do with the beholder's cultural standards. In History of Beauty, renowned author Umberto Eco sets out to demonstrate how every historical era has had its own ideas about eye-appeal. Pages of charts that track archetypes of beauty through the ages ("nude Venus," "nude Adonis," and so forth) may suggest that this book is a historical survey of beautiful people portrayed in art.

Others were like urban plans, architechturally precise, like cities viewed from the air." So goes Nick Knight's description of the beauty and diversity of plants he encountered in the Natural History Museum botanical collection when preparing his book Flora. Accompanying his images are short texts on the individual plants commenting on their biological characteristics, historical and cultural importance. Artist Janice Kerbel made a parallel investigation as the basis for her engaging radio play Nick Silver Can't Sleep in which botanical tendencies are transformed into the basis of a thwarted love story. It was performed for the first time to a live audience at Tate Britain on 8th September, at dusk. See less

Yoav Herman "It's a small world" | The idea behind the T-shirt was to show a world without divisions, a place where different religions, cultures and physical appearances don't create separation between people but bring them closer together. Using minimalist strong image and worm colors, I tried to send the message that if we all learn to accept and appreciate other people's uniqueness, we will realize how similar we actually are.
