Some pieces use generative schemes, portraits of mental shapes, which create meaning out of noise. In "Hours" and "Setting, the Table," Field uses indeterminate performance techniques to emphasize the categorical/conceptual nature of thought. Visually, each chapter is captivating, showing both the author's need for shapes and colors in her work, and her fascination with the contours of speech."--BOOK JACKET.

Pioneering work by the great modernist painter, considered by many to be the father of abstract art and a leader in the movement to free art from traditional bonds. 12 illustrations.

"Once there was as boy who lived on a point..." Thus begins a modern allegory that challenges our typical self-centered existence. Indeed, some people live on a point. It’s all about them. Some live on a line. They may actually care about the people they meet, but they never really leave their comfort zone. Most people live on a plane. They do their best in a flat, two-dimensional world, but deny what they know in their heart: “There’s more to this life than this life.” Point/Line/Plane/Eternity empowers readers to live with joy and purpose — still part of the finite world — while anticipating your forever home in heaven. In one sitting, you’ll finally understand what it means to be living on the threshold of eternity.
