How to find clarity amid the turbulence of work and life We all wish we had more time to pause and reflect about small decisions and big goals—and everything in between. But since we live and work in a vortex of tasks, meetings, decisions, and responsibilities, we rarely get the chance to step back. In this practical guide, bestselling author and Harvard Business School professor Joseph Badaracco argues that you don't need long periods of solitude and tranquility to reflect well. In fact, reflection can take place in the cracks and crevices of your very busy life, and these moments can help you understand your feelings, look at problems from different perspectives, focus on what really matters, and, ultimately, lead a better life. Building on candid interviews with over a hundred executives and professionals, as well as on the classic works of Marcus Aurelius, Michel de Montaigne, and Ignatius of Loyola, Badaracco offers simple, customizable principles and ideas for reflection that lend a gentle discipline to an otherwise nebulous process. Concise, smart, and pragmatic, Step Back is the guide you need to make reflection a positive force in your work and life.

Géza Perneczky is a protagonist of Hungarian conceptual art and part of the Hungarian Neo-Avant-Garde. In 1970 the artist, art historian, art critic and author emigrated to Cologne, where he lives and works until today. Edited by Patrick Urwyler, this publication is the first comprehensive presentation of Géza Perneczky's conceptual photography, the artist realized between 1970-75 as a dissident in Germany. The experiences of this period and Perneczky's self-conception as an artist and art historian characterize these early works. In his introductory essay the art historian Dávid Fehér aptly describes Perneczky as a "critic of art" and "artist of critique," his conceptual practice correspondingly as "The Art of Reflection". Géza Perneczky's works can be found in collections such as The Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), The Museum of Modern Art (New York), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Centre Pompidou (Paris) and Ludwig Museum (Budapest).

Radical Since 1971 - What if would happen if you dressed Captain America in a corset and heels? How should we respond to war & exploitation? Why are women paid less and expected to do more? Over her 40+ year career, feminist artist and political activist Margaret Harrison has tried to answer these questions, creating an enormous body of work that includes oil paintings, watercolors, drawings, and large installations. Utilizing her Royal Academy training, cultural icons from Wonder Woman to Lady Gaga, and elements of the British landscape tradition, she insightfully comments on issues of cultural and political importance locally (UK) and internationally. From her first censored solo exhibition in 1971 (one of the first Feminist solo shows in London) to winning the Northern Art Prize in 2013 (Leeds, UK), Harrison has challenged the status quo with thought provoking and often humorous work questioning notions of gender & identity, place, politics, celebrity, domestic violence, and the exploitation of women's labor and sexuality.
