Rooted

Born in Santa Fe, New Mexico, in 1950, sculptor Luis Tapia is a pioneering Chicano artist who for forty-five years has pushed the art of polychrome wood sculpture to new levels of craftsmanship and social and political commentary. Tapia's works speak to the complexity of Latino/Hispano/Chicano identity, history, and contemporary culture, offering compelling insights and challenging perspectives on life in the barrio, on the border, and beyond.

Rooted in a folk art tradition established in seventeenth-century New Mexico, Tapia's work at once honors its origins, reinterprets traditional subject matter, and revitalizes age-old techniques. As an artist and activist whose works have been internationally exhibited and collected, Tapia informs and educates non-Hispanic viewers about the Chicano and Nuevomexicano experience. At the same time, he transcends cultural and ethnic borders through the elegance of his craft and commentary.

In this first publication devoted to Tapia's artistic legacy, leading art historians, curators, and literary figures consider Tapia's art both inside and outside the local and regional contexts in which it is made. With more than 100 photographic reproductions, Borderless illuminates Tapia's relevance and vitality within the broader national and international artistic conversation.

Amazing book and great reminder of Gods Grace and how we are no different than Jacob.
Format: Kindle
I LOVE reading books by Max Lucado and this was another great one. I love how he gives scripture throughout his books and examples of how we are no different than those of old who had the same troubles and trials. Gods Grace is there for me just as it was for Jacob and is for anyone else who believes and trusts in the Lord.

Great Book for Men’s Group
Format: Hardcover
Our men’s group was looking for a great book to for our mid-week Bible Study and were excited to learn that Max Lucado had this book. God Never Gives Up on You has been perfect. Each chapter is easy to read while providing depth in thought. The best part is that each chapter is only about 10pgs (which seems to be a great number for our group). Great questions for group discussion at the end of the book too!

Much Needed Message
Format: Kindle
Beyond the message, I thoroughly enjoyed the story of Jacob in the Book of Genesis. And I thoroughly enjoyed Pastor Max Lucado‘s take on the story, and how he made it come to life for me. You will not be disappointed in this book, or it’s message,… I promise.

Very insightful
Format: Paperback
A very interesting way to break down the concepts of basic and/or sophisticated cybersecurity. In that retrospect, you come to see that all security measures are quite the same. The difference lies in the environment; one is a corporate office, the other is Feudal Japan. It's a good read
