Künstler, Sammler, Tagebuchschreiber und Buchautor Peter Beard (1938-2020) hat sein gesamtes Leben zu einem Kunstwerk gemacht. Aus dem jungen Mann, der seine Tagebücher illustrierte, wurde ein ernsthafter Künstler, der sich in der internationalen Szene eine zentrale Position eroberte. Er kollaborierte mit Francis Bacon und Salvador Dalí , gestaltete Tagebücher mit Andy Warhol und ging mit Truman Capote, Terry Southern und den Rolling Stones auf Tour - sie alle werden in seinem Werk auf die ein oder andere Weise zum Leben erweckt. Als Modefotograf nahm er Vogue -Stars wie Veruschka mit nach Afrika und brachte andere in die Vereinigten Staaten. In den frühen 1960er Jahren fuhr Beard nach Kenia und lernte dort die Autorin Isak Dinesen (Tania Blixen) kennen und schätzen. Er erwarb ein Stück Land neben dem ihrem unter der Bedingung, dass er dessen Flora und Fauna dokumentiert. Beard erlebte die Bevölkerungsexplosion in Kenia mit, das Ende der Ressourcen und die Bedrohung vieler Tierarten (darunter die Elefanten von Tsavo, die zu zehntausenden inmitten einer ausgelaugten Landschaft starben) und hielt diese Erfahrungen in seinen Tagebüchern, Fotografien und Collagen fest. Mit seinen einzigartigen, manchmal schockierenden Werken wie The End of the Game (Die letzte Jagd) arbeitete er gegen den Zeitgeist: er zeigte die verendeten Körper, wie sie waren, und beschrieb seine Eindrücke sorgfältig auf der Schreibmaschine sowie mit der Hand . Seine Fotografien benutzte Beard dabei als Leinwand - Kontaktabzüge, Zeitungsschnipsel, Postkarten und andere gesammelte Objekte ordnete er neben- und übereinander an und schmückte sie mit seiner akkuraten Handschrift, Zeichnungen und Tierblut aus. 2006 veröffentlichte TASCHEN die limitierte Ausgabe dieses Buchs, das Beards Œuvre in all seinen Facetten widerspiegelt. Die vom Künstler signierte zweibändige Collector's Edition war sofort vergriffen und ist heute ein begehrtes Sammlerstück. In den folgenden zehn Jahren wurde die Monografie in zwei kleineren Versionen wiederaufgelegt - aber manchmal ist größer eben doch besser: Für alle, die damals leer ausgingen, ist nun diese großformatige einbändige Ausgabe erhältlich.

IT WORKS, IT REALLY WORKS!
Size: 16oz, Size: 16oz
I carry a tire plug kit in my van. Low pressure light came on and quickly made my way to air pump. Checked out tire and was at least a 5/16" bolt right between tread, very easy to locate (hissing). Inflated tire, prepared plug, pulled out bolt, inserted plug done. Almost home light came on again. Used water soap and plug was still leaking. Tried double plug and still leaking, but would take days to trigger low pressure light. Tire still had decent tread and didn't have facilities to patch, so got a can of fix a flat. I have never believed in this stuff, but it worked. No low pressure warnings for about a month. Around here they would charge $50 for a patch, 2 .25 cent soft rubber plugs and fix a flat, problem resolved!

Buy it! Lifesaver!
Size: 16oz
Yes, buy it when you don't have a spare tire because you will need it! I live in Florida and flat tires are just part of living here! Saved my life twice already and is absolutely self explaining! Cheaper then a spare tire, lighter than one too! Just throw it in your trunk and best case you will never need it but just in case!

Difficult to use and eventually hose end broke
Size: 24oz, Size: 24oz
I purchased this can of Fix-A-Flat to fix, what I believe, is a rim leak on my truck tire which needs to be filled once every week or so. When I attempted to use the product I let some air out of the tire (down to 25 psi) so it would be easier to dispense the contents. The instructions on the can say to have the valve on the tire at the 6 o'clock...which I did as well. When I attempted to make the connection using the swivel connector on the can's hose it was difficult. The hose on the can is very short and stiff and because it came coiled in the can's lid, did not want to straighten out making connecting it to the tire a very awkward process. It was hard to screw the hose end on the valve without it binding so it felt like it was cross-threading. I have machined aluminum valve caps and they go one very easily so I know the threads on the tire's valve stem are clean. I finally did get it on and when I attempted to dispense the contents it filled the hose but that was about it. I could not see any contents flowing thru the hose at all. I assumed it was not on far enough so I took it off to try again and the contents sprayed everywhere showing it was indeed under pressure....just not going into the tire. After multiple tries the hose end eventually just broke off and stayed on the tire's valve stem. I was able to get it off, but at this point the can is useless to me. Obviously I cannot and will not recommend this product. I have used this product before and had success, but that was when the hose was longer and wired to the side of the can making it much easier to use, versus how they are shipped now. I would recommend going with another product or possible going to a box store (which is what I plan to do) to find one that does not have this design. At the very least, if you do choose to disregard this review, I would try it with the tire's valve stem at the 3 or 9 o'clock position which might make it easier to thread the hose end on to the valve stem,. Also, if you choose to go this route you might just be throwing your money away. I attempted to get a refund from Amazon and was directed to the manufacture's web site. From there you are directed to use the 800 number of leave a general message that is in no way connected to your Amazon purchase. Past experience tells me it will not be an easy process so it looks like I am out the $12.

This is a necessity for anyone that tries a car!!
Size: 20oz 6pk
I haven’t used this yet, but I bought a case to give to my family members. My friend who came outside to a flat tire. It was a Sunday in Utah so there was really no one that could fix it. Walmart told her to get this product. She had to drive home immediately following using this product (300 miles) It has been over two months now and my niece is still driving on that tire. It was a brand new tire that was costly so she decided to just wait and see how long this product will work. Great gift for anyone in the family that drives. This does not work on a blown tire. If you wake up in the morning and your tire is flat, or you get out of class and your tire is flat, just use this product and no calls need to be made.
