De Groninger schilderkunst
€ 27,90
Tot nu toe bestond er geen uitgebreid overzicht van de Groningse kunstgeschiedenis van de 16e en 17e eeuw. Met De Groninger schilderkunst in de 16e en 17e eeuw vult Joop van Roekel deze leemte op. Het geeft een overzicht van de kunsthistorische ontwikkelingen in Groningen en plaatst die in verhouding tot de Nederlandse kunstgeschiedenis. Daarbij worden en passant veel schilderijen aan tot nu toe onbekende Groningse kunstenaars gekoppeld. In het boek is een complete namenlijst opgenomen van bestuurders en kunstenaars van het glazenmakers- en schildersgilde.
Joop van Roekel (1953) studeerde kunstgeschiedenis en werkte meer dan twintig jaar bij bibliotheken in Groningen. Hij publiceerde meerdere boeken en artikelen over regionale (kunst)geschiedenis en fotografie.

Cache-sexe
€ 34,90This book asks why humans through history have covered their genitals and worn a cache-sexe. Does the cache-sexe merely provide protection, or is it an instrument to draw attention? Can the cache-sexe be used to stimulate certain thoughts? Why does not wearing a cache-sexe provoke shame one society but not in another? Are nudity and nakedness the same?
On his quest to answer these questions, the author takes the reader on a review of the anatomy of the female and male genitals and reflects on how this part of the human body has been perceived over time and in various cultures. The different types of male and female cache-sex are discussed with reference to comprehensive illustrations based on unique and sometimes previously unpublished examples of cache-sexes and photographic documentation. The book also pays attention to the covering of the ‘backside’. Following this 360° exploration of the use of the cache-sexe, the place of the cache-sexe in art and fashion is uncovered.
