Publisher: Random House Publishing Group
EXCLUSIVE: Writer-producer Eli Attie has closed a two-year overall deal with 20th Century Fox TV. Representing the Unrepresentable: Imaging Faith in 20th-Century Art. In this long anticipated sequel to his acclaimed Coasts of Bohemia, Derek Sayer attempts to do for twentieth-century Prague what Walter Benjamin did for nineteenth-century Paris. Djuna Barnes – (1892-1982) American writer who played an important part in the development of 20th century modernist writing and was one of the key figures in 1920s and 30s bohemian Paris. Eugène Atget's early 20th century photographs of Paris are currently on display at the Museum of Modern Art. Paris in the Twentieth Century is a relatively short novel, published posthumously, having been rejected by the Verne's publisher during his lifetime. Art historian Michael Howard looks at how faith has influenced artists and, in turn, been represented in art, with a focus on the Jewish School of Paris. Located in the 7th arrondissement, just like the Hôtel de la Tour Maubourg, the Musée d'Orsay is one of the most prestigious museums in Paris. It's mostly pretty boring, despite Verne's affable style, and pretty crudely constructed. Realizing, in Paris during a 4-day taping for 60 Minutes, that writing about Paris was in his heart, he knew his next book also had to be about Americans in Paris in the 20th century. Some historians speak about an enclave of Jewish artists, others about a Jewish School of Paris. Under the pact, Attie is joining the studio's new ABC drama Mind Games, from creator Kyle Killen, as co-executive producer. (Horst had emigrated to America in the late summer of 1939 shortly after taking what would become one of the most iconic images of the twentieth century, shot at his Paris studio: the erotically-charged Mainbocher Corset. Paris in the Twentieth Century, by Jules Verne. Not one of the masterpieces of dystopian fiction, my friends.
