Book excerpt: In July 2002, more than 9,700 Deaf people from around the world met in Washington, D.C., to share their arts, research, and languages at Deaf Way II, a joyous festival of diverse Deaf cultures. Deaf Way II: An International Celebration offers 250 full-color photographs with captions and introductory essays to capture again the excitement of this historical event. Those who attended the gathering will relive their rich experiences visually, while those who view it for the first time through this book will feel as though they had lived its splendor in person. The Deaf Way II photographs, taken during the course of the six-day event, create a matchless pictorial record that travels back and forth from the formal grandeur of the opening celebration to fascinating looks behind the scenes at the arts festival and the scholarly conference program. The warm depictions of the youth program and many attendees complement the compelling portrayals of the people and technology that made Deaf Way II accessible to all. Through this magnificent cross-section of photographs, Deaf Way II reveals a wonderful international society of Deaf people that will engage all who see it.

Book Synopsis Ann Silver by : James W. Van Manen
Download or read book Ann Silver written by James W. Van Manen. This book was released on 2012-06-30. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives you entre into the life and art of an incredible woman who has done much with her life. She has traveled the world. She has met several presidents and prime ministers. She has charmed her way into situations and into places few would imagine possible for anyone. To say that she is a remarkable person is to miss the mark. While barely 20 and an undergraduate, along with a few others, she started the Deaf Art Movement. By 25 her artwork had been published in over 10 books. By 40 she had created an international symbol of sign language interpreting, and had her design work published on over 2000 book covers. By 45, after rededicating her life to studio art, she had completed over 150 pieces and defined a new art genre: Deaf Pop Art. She has taken more photographs of famous people using the ILY sign than most people can name. She found herself in Japan and within days of her arrival was living with a Deaf host family and being interviewed on Japanese TV. She has chutzpah, wit, and style in her 5 foot frame. When I tell you she has been Deaf from birth, I expect some readers will be more impressed. As Silver would say, "Pfft. Get over yourself." Being Deaf is a part of her, like being born Jewish or being born a lesbian. It isn't amazing that she's done what she's done because she's Deaf. She is just amazing. This book is an art biography because it is about her art, but it is also about her life. It reads in chronological format, starting with her birth and leads the reader through various stages in her life and artwork up to the present.
