He is generally considered one of the greatest visual artists in the history of art.

do you have any book recommendations about geography/ecology?

hello. hmm, sure. thanks for trusting me enough to ask; don’t trust me too much, though. i'm always learning and criticizing my past/previous perspectives, but there are still some "classic" books that i'd recommend. something i say often, though: i actually spend much more time reading essays and journal articles, rather than full-length books (especially since so much of the best decolonial viewpoints, Indigenous and non-Western perspectives, and newer/fresher geographical thought and "critical geography" takes are being actively revised/discussed in these newer forums without having to appease popular or profit-oriented press/publishing companies).

the subjects that i read about: human relationships with other-than-human creatures; extinction; environmental history of empires, imperialism, colonization; traditional ecological knowledge; resistance, fugitivity, and carceral geography; eerie, weird, and uncanny ecology; regional geography, specific microhabitats, endemic species; Anthropocene, Capitalocene, Plantationocene; ruins, ruination, haunting, trauma, and emotional geography; reptiles/amphibians; temperate rainforest and deserts; Pleistocene fauna and Paleolithic/ancient anthropogenic environmental change; islands, the sea, Oceanic worldviews, archipelagic thinking, solidarity across islands/regions; frontiers, borderlands, hinterlands, sacrifice zones, wastelanding, social abandonment, and extraction zones; Indigenous geography/ontology; decolonization

generally, i don't distinguish much of a difference between the subjects of geography/ecology -- or human and other-than-human environments -- since lifeforms and places and (cosmo)politics are all so entangled. anyway, here are some books involving a bit more geography and human ecology (the last time i was asked for recommendations, i focused a bit more on ecology and other-than-human environments, which i'll also re-post below these newer recs):

and then, i'll say again that essays and journal articles are often a great source for some of my favorite authors (though of course none of them are perfect; they can be problematique in their own ways): Lizabeth Paravisini-Gebert; Elizabeth DeLoughrey; Paulo Tavares; Anna Boswell; Achille Mbembe; Hugo Reinert; Tim Edensor; Anna Tsing; Frantz Fanon; Robin Wall Kimmerer; Kyle Whyte; Kathryn Yusoff; Iyko Day; Audra Simpson; Ann Laura Stoler; Pedro Neves Marques

so here are the books i've previously recommended:

hope some of these are interesting.

Rembrandt’s Cyclops

So important is Rembrandt van Rijn’s Militia Company of District II under the Command of Captain Frans Bannick Cocq aka The Night Watch to Amsterdam’s  Rijkmuseum that the authorities are proposing from July to restore it under public gaze, a curious form of watching paint dry. Completed in 1642, it is a colossal piece and rightly considered to be one of the painter’s finest works.

Commissioned…

Should you ever find yourself challenged as you loiter in Amsterdam's famous red light district, here's a valid excuse. Explain you're searching for the houses where Rembrandt van Rijn lived, here in the city's piquant canal quarter. Only one abode has survived, Museum Het Rembrandthuis, or Rembrandt House Museum.

And expect that it, like every other Rembrandt site in Amsterdam, will be well-booked during 2019, "The Year of Rembrandt" since it's the 350th anniversary of the painter's death.

Thanks to new technology, we're able to enjoy "old masters" like never before. Not just audio guides and digital downloads but the kind of ultra-sensitive lighting that enables Holland's national museum of art and history, the Rijksmuseum, to show every one of its Rembrandt collection – 22 paintings, 60 drawings and more than 300 prints – together for the first time (until June 10, 2019).

From July, the Rijksmuseum will also be the focus of one of the most extraordinary projects in art history. Rembrandt's most famous work, The Night Watch, will undergo its first restoration since it was slashed in 1975 with a bread knife. During the restoration, the huge painting will be encased in a glass chamber allowing visitors to still admire the painting while digital viewers around the world can follow the painstaking restoration.

No-one would be more surprised by The Night Watch's enduring fame than Rembrandt. Like Mozart, he was buried in a pauper's grave despite previous celebrity and royal adoration. But unlike well-travelled Mozart, the Dutchman rarely ventured outside Amsterdam.

So the cheapest way of learning about arguably the most influential artist between Leonardo da Vinci and Pablo Picasso is to take a self-guided "Rembrandt walk" around the Amsterdam he might still recognise.

Our starting point is the Rembrandt House Museum on Jodenbreestraat. The artist and his wife, Saskia, moved here in 1639, at the height of Rembrandt's fame and financial success. It's a substantial wooden house. And though it's in the heart of historical Amsterdam, it was just a couple of canals from the fields where the artist took his sketchbooks to draw.

Saskia and Rembrandt were engaged at the Oude Kerk in 1633. Nine years later, she was buried there, aged 29, having given birth to four children. Each daughter died in infancy and they are buried at another of Amsterdam's famous churches, Zuiderkerk (the first Protestant church build after the expulsion of the Catholic clergy in 1578). Only their son Titus, born in 1641, lived until adulthood and he died before his father. For the latter part of his life, Rembrandt lived with his former maid, Hendrickje Stoffels, mother of their daughter, Cornelia.

At the Rembrandt House Museum you'll discover how prodigious, famous and wealthy Rembrandt was in his prime. Yet he went bankrupt, moving to cheaper accommodation. It's not hard to work out why. His private collection, now reassembled, consists of things a wealthy, educated royal might amass, charging to the public purse.

Once you've finished in the museum and purchased the self-guided walk booklet, turn left and cross Oude Schans, one of Amsterdam's oldest canals, to 59 Anthoniebreestraat. It's now a nondescript apartment block. But for six months in 1625, young Rembrandt, newly arrived from his birthplace of Leiden, was apprenticed to the painter Pieter Lastman who lived here. Lastman was highly regarded for his "history paintings", scenes from the Bible and classical mythology, a constant theme in Rembrandt's own work.

My favourites on the walk include Zuiderkerk ("southern church"). Its dominating tower, finished in 1614, remains much as it was when Rembrandt woke up to its four bells ringing each month. And how could you not love the social hub that is still Nieuwmarkt, anchored by De Waag? This multi-towered, multi-entranced and multi-purpose "weigh house" is where the young Rembrandt was invited to paint his breakthrough canvas, The Anatomy Lesson of Dr Nicolaes Tulp.

Then there's the site, now a hotel, where Rembrandt was commissioned by "the Company of Captain Frans Banning Cocq and Lieutenant Willem van Ruytenburch"? Don't recognise their names? They were the officers of what we'd now call a ceremonial civil guard. They became The Night Watch, by mistake, because Rembrandt's colours darkened over the centuries. So who knows what this year's analysis will bring?

One thing is sure. The circular walking tour will bring you back to Oude Schans. Rembrandt Corner, the restaurant overlooking the canal and next to Rembrandt House Museum, is an unashamed tourist trap. But it still serves the traditional Dutch meals Rembrandt enjoyed (split pea and sausage soup or the Hollandse stamppot: mashed potato with spinach, sausage, meatball, gravy and egg on the side). You'll notice the cumulative effect of such repasts on Rembrandt's girth in his self-portraits.

Julie Cocq in France made a soundtrack to Pat Perry's Drawings about Black Holes! She writes:

"...I've started making this song long before getting my copy of "Drawings About Black Holes", and it stayed on my laptop for weeks waiting to be finished. Pat's book, and his art in general, gave me the exact same chaotic feeling and helped me finalize it."

So rad! Thank you for making this, Julie!

It's also likely that we will printing a second run of the book very, very soon.
