De voormalige Citroëngarage, een pareltje van de Brusselse industriële architectuur uit de jaren 1930, werd op een resoluut experimentele manier omgevormd tot een platform dat openstaat voor reflectie over de uitdagingen van het museum van morgen. Uit de collecties van het Musée National d'Art Moderne-Centre Pompidou is een multidisciplinair programma bijeengebracht in de grote ruimten die nog maar recent hun functie verloren en in hun oorspronkelijke staat te bezichtigen zijn. Talrijke projecten beklemtonen de eigenheid van het gebouw, met zijn menselijke en sociale geschiedenis waarvan de sporen nog duidelijk zichtbaar zijn in de werkplaatsen en kantoren. In deze industriële omgeving krijgen de kunstwerken, bevrijd van de gewijde context van het museum, een nieuw leven. In deze "BRUT"-ruimte lijkt de grens tussen de kunst en het leven eventjes te vervagen en wordt een van de basismythen van de moderne kunst getoetst: kunst in het leven doen opgaan.

Het boek dat uit deze museumervaring is ontstaan, biedt de lezer tal van artistieke ontdekkingen via een wandeling doorheen het hart van dit bijzondere gebouw. De esthetische kwaliteiten van de ruimte, die vooral voelbaar zijn op de eerste verdieping van de werkplaats, worden nog benadrukt door de aanwezigheid van grote werken, waaronder het Tropical House van Jean Prouvé, PAO II van Toyo Ito, of het Pavillon van Ross Lovegrove. De sociale geschiedenis van de garage komt aan bod in een reeks tentoonstellingen van foto's, films, design en beeldende kunst in de verschillende werkruimten - werkplaatsen, kantoren, keukens en kleedkamers - waar ze aan hun functies herinneren. De boeiende mix van beeldende kunst, design en architectuur, creaties van Brusselse kunstenaars en liveperformances in deze publicatie staat borg voor een unieke artistieke ervaring "buiten context".

Anne Helped, I'm Thankful, and She'll Wow You Too!
Format: Hardcover
A small book with a big heart. Lamott writes with honesty, humor, and grace about prayer in a way that is accessible to believers, doubters, and everyone in between. “Help, Thanks, Wow” is simple without being shallow and deeply moving without being heavy. I return to it often.

Why write another review? There are already so many for this book.
Format: Kindle
It shouldn't surprise me that books that I like, by authors that I love, are extremely popular and well reviewed. This is the case with " . We might just as well ask, "Why write another book on prayer? The world is full of them." I could forego the review entirely, but I just can't do that because I love Annie (the author) so much and I cannot pass up the opportunity to say how much I appreciate her life and her work. While this isn't my favorite "Anne Lamott" book, it is certainly worth reading, if for no other reason than the entertainment value. Her words are so skillfully crafted and lyrical that it causes joy to spring up in my soul. This book will provide some insight into prayer for everyone; from the practiced, long-time prayer practitioner to the novice; from believer to agnostic. You will discover aspects of prayer that you had not appreciated before. This is not a technical treatise on prayer, but it did encourage me to pray and to be more faithful in prayer... to be more "in the moment" and to recognize the beauty that is everywhere around us. The day this came out I bought two copies, one for Kindle (which was formatted well and flowed smoothly) and the audio version (which I will listen to the next time through). I have several of Anne's other books in the audio version and I can say it is a real treat when she reads the books herself. Do not hesitate to buy this (or any other) book by Anne Lamott. You will be happily rewarded in the reading.

Understand your loss. Celebrate your gain. Live!
Format: Kindle
A quick look at what makes us human; our principal line of relationship to the Cosmos. Maybe not always reverent, but always livable and believable. This is a book, a primer, on how to deal with the mess of life. Written with enough seriousness and tongue-in-cheek humor to be readable and thought provoking.

An Invitation into the Heart of Reality
Format: Kindle
I love reading Anne Lamott. She helps me feel that it’s okay to be human. She helps me see that prayer is human. It’s the most natural thing you can do. And, really, everybody does it, whether they know it or not. In this delightful book, Ms. Lamott reflects on what she calls three essential prayers: help, thanks, and wow! Such human expressions! She invites us, the readers, into her perspective on life, infused as it is with both the mundane and the mysterious. There are times when it is even threatening. But we are not alone. We have each other, and we have God. (Or, better, God has us.). I don’t know that Ms. Lamott would want to be called an optimist, but she certainly sees the good in the bad (or, maybe after the bad). Life is both, she seems to say, but all is okay. So we ask for help when we’re wise enough (or desperate enough) to do so—both for ourselves and others. And we say thanks because life is full of reasons to be grateful. And there is so much beauty around us—and tragedy too—that we cannot help but erupt with wow! I urge you to read this book. Perhaps, as you read it, you will feel as I did reading it, that you are in a conversation with someone very wise and very compassionate and very real.

Another Thanks and Wow by Anne Lamott!
Format: Hardcover
I was first introduced to Anne Lamott's writing about 25 years ago when I read her book, Bird by Bird. It was a book about how to write and from that moment she became one of my favorite authors. Help, Thanks, Wow is a wonderful book that I have underlined and reread over and over again. Her writing has a voice that many of us can relate to. It's honest and you can feel her pain. She writes with humor to balance the good with the bad. Something that is so important to learn as we go through life. Her descriptions help you see, feel, and smell when she describes "autumn...the colors are broccoli and flame and fox fur. The tang is apples. The rot smells faintly of grapes..." She tells us how to ask for help when you can't do it all by yourself, but how important it is to say thank you, thank you, thank you and Wow for all the things you are grateful for. I loved when she wrote about how service to others is joy ,but how important it is to be kind to yourself. One of my favorite passages was this one, "This morning at six when I awoke, loneliness was sitting on my chest like a dental X-ray apron, even though I was buried in hairy dog love. Help, I am sad and lonely, and already it looks like today is going to be too long. I prayed...I did a kindness to myself, as I would have a troubled friend..." Her descriptions are all like this one and easy to relate to. I loved this book and have given it to friends who have then bought it for other friends. It is definitely a WOW!!!!
