Elton John: Live at Dodger Stadium Two Days that Rocked the World: Photographs by Terry O’Neill Photographed by Terry O’Neill Introduction by Billie Jean King On October 25 and 26, 1975, Elton John performed two sold-out shows in California’s Dodger Stadium. The biggest rock star in the world was going to stage two nights in one of America’s most beloved and famous venues. Photographer Terry O’Neill, by then already known as a world class photographer whose images of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and David Bowie were considered iconic, was onhand to capture every moment. O’Neill was given unprecedented access to document this incredible occasion and now, for the first time in book form, these photos - many of which have never been seen before - celebrate two milestone days in music history. Featuring an introduction by Billie Jean King, this incredible book contains more than 150 photographs along with O’Neill’s own memories of the event itself, along with original essays from members of the band and concert goers, this book celebrates the story of a concert that was instantly dubbed an iconic moment in music history and, musically, a home run.

Drawing in Venice Titian to Canaletto Catherine Whistler Featuring over a hundred drawings from the outstanding collections of graphic art at the Uffizi, Florence, and the Ashmolean, and Christ Church, Oxford, Drawing in Venice is based on ground-breaking new research and accompanies an AshmoleanUffizi collaborative exhibition (2015-16) which traces continuities in Venetian drawing over three centuries, from around 1500 down to the foundation of the first academy of art in Venice in 1750. Venetian art has long been associated with brilliant colours and free brushwork, but drawing has been written out of its history. This book highlights the significance of drawing as a concept and as a practice in the artistic life of Venice. It reveals the variety of aims, purposes, and techniques in drawing through the works of the Venetian Renaissance masters Giovanni Bellini, Titian, and Tintoretto to those of the great eighteenth-century artists, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo and Canaletto.

Warhol’s Nature Chad Alligood Explore Andy Warhol’s surprising, lifelong engagement with nature as subject matter for his artistic practice. While he was well known for his responsiveness to popular culture and advertising, Warhol simultaneously engaged with the natural world through his work, depicting landscapes, flora, and fauna in innovative and surprising ways. Accompanying the exhibition Warhol’s Nature, organised by Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and featuring works drawn primarily from the collections of the Andy Warhol Museum, this fully illustrated book covers every decade of the Pop icon’s long career, from his earliest drawings as a commercial illustrator through his later paintings of flowers and wildlife. Gain fresh perspective on artworks like Warhol’s Self-Portrait in his infamous fright wig overlaid with camouflage, the iconic Flowers series of the 1960s, rarely seen photographs, and more. Essays by Warhol scholars and experts offer further insight into this under-studied yet vitally important strain of the artist's career.

Henri Rousseau Archaic Naivety Gabriella Belli and Guy Cogeval orn into a family of tradespeople in a small city in France, Henri Rousseau became a customs and excise officer in the customs house in Paris in 1871, a job that earned him the nickname ‘the customs officer’.
B
Rousseau was an enthusiastic self-taught artist. Nourished by themes in the popular imagination, Rousseau’s painting expresses a vision of reality, populated by iconic figures outlined with hieratic force against flat blocks of saturated colour and fantastic spaces - a vision long branded as naive, ingenuous and uncultivated. This book demonstrates how fully Rousseau il Douanier’s masterpieces are part of this archaic trend, and of the world of art in general, from his dream-like exotic landscapes to his still-lifes. They are shown alongside works signed by the likes of Picasso, Gaugain, Frida Kahlo, and Carlo Carrà.

I felt physically sick from the pit of my stomach and to be honest was now feeling vulnerable and completely outside my depth of knowledge. The world had seemingly gone mad and I was having visions of the base now being ransacked; I was confused and unsure what to do. My solution was to do the only thing that I could do. I climbed the nearest sangar and started to draw. - Jules George.

Le Corbusier: The Measures of Man Olivier Cinqualbre, Frédéric Migayrou (eds) e Corbusier (1887-1965) - visionary architect, urban planner and theorist of modernity, and L also an accomplished painter and sculptor - made a profound impression on the 20th century in dramatically changing architectural design and the way people lived in it. This new book, coinciding with a major retrospective at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, shows the output of this major figure in modernity through the idea of human proportions, the human body being essential as a universal principle defining all aspects of architecture and spatial composition.

Le Corbusier: The Measures of Man offers a fresh journey through his work.

The essays are arranged in five chapters: The Constants of Eurythmia, The Housed Body, The Dimensions of Anthropometry, The Inexpressible Space, and The Universal Man. They are complemented by five visual sections featuring a wealth of illustrations, showing the entire range of Le Corbusier's unceasing creativity, and include much previously unpublished or little-known material.

If These Jewels Could Talk The Legends Behind Celebrity Gems Beth Bernstein Throughout the 20th century, jewellery revealed the behind-the-scenes stories and the plot twists and turns in the real lives of celebrities that will always be larger than life. Some of the world's most fabulous jewels not only illustrated power and status in society but these magical gems held tremendous sentimental value as they were linked to the most significant moments and memories of Hollywood royalty, international aristocracy and international icons of style. If These Jewels Could Talk offers a glimpse into the jewellery boxes of these celebrities - the personal tastes, heartfelt anecdotes and the true tales of the women who wore and collected the pieces. During the early- to mid-20th century, a majority of screen actresses requested to wear their own favourite pieces in films. This offered a peek into some of the great jewellers of the time who were designing for women who could choose anything. Actresses such as Merle Oberon, Paulette Goddard, Joan Crawford, Grace Kelly and Elizabeth Taylor as well as icons such as Jackie Kennedy and The Duchess of Windsor created signature styles for which they became known and which influenced generations of women, becoming part of our collective consciousness.

In films, jewellery clearly developed and defined a character’s personality - as it did in real life - whether it be a rags-to-riches story or those that figured into the plot: for example, a Cartier bracelet in Alfred Hitchcock’s Lifeboat, or a Harry Winston necklace in Notorious. Whether on or off screen, worn by the famed and the legendary, and designed by the most revered houses of the day, all of these jewels take us on a narrative journey that provide fascinating insight into the intriguing worlds of early Hollywood and nobility from the 1920s through to today.

This edition brings up to the present day all the date letters and commemorative marks. It also includes the recently introduced marks for Palladium and a section illustrating the Assay Office identification marks of those countries that are signatories to the International Convention marking system. In addition and of importance are the changes made in the early cycles of Dublin date letters which result from recent research by silver scholars in Ireland.

Ingenious Encounters World Tour to Nobel Laureates Peter Badge and Sandra Zarrinbal he Nobel Prize is famous the world over; the personalities who receive it, however, are practically unknown.
T
In 2000, the photographer Peter Badge was commissioned to shoot portraits of all living Nobel Laureates. Since then, he has travelled around the world in order to photograph physicists, medical scientists, economists, literati and peace activists. Over the years, he has met and photographed more than 400 Nobel Laureates: a mammoth project, which has been accompanied by many surprises. The meetings with the Nobel Laureates were often far more than mere photo shoots: Peter Badge met the laureates in their private surroundings and often in highly personal situations. He thus experienced unforgettable moments with the ingenious mathematician John Nash, whose life story became known worldwide through the film A Beautiful Mind, as well as dangerous journeys, such as the search for Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn in Moscow without a valid visa. Peter Badge accompanied, among others, the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate José Ramos-Horta, then President of Timor-Leste, on a state visit, and the neurophysiologist Linda Buck while she purchased her wedding dress. In Ingenious Encounters, he also tells of his meetings with Gabriel García Márquez, Barack Obama, Kim Dae Jung, Desmond Tutu, Günter Grass, Aung San Suu Kyi and many others. As with his internationally acclaimed photographs, Peter Badge also demonstrates with his amusing and compassionate stories his remarkable intuition for the essence and charisma of those he portrays, as well as for the profound depth of the moment. In collaboration with Sandra Zarrinbal, he has put together a highly personal and unusual travel experience report with previously unpublished photographs: a journey to the people whose ideas move the world.

Gin & tonic, the drink of the eighties, is more fashionable than ever before. Bars, clubs, gin menus in restaurants - gin is everywhere. This beautifully compiled book is an essential guide for gin lovers in search of their own original take on this wonderfully complex drink. Richly illustrated, it covers the history of gin, the gin families with their distinct characteristics and distilled flavours, and the exciting, more recent developments in the marketing, the bottling and packaging of gin which is increasingly quirky, artistic and original. There is an overview of some of the smartest places to drink and discover a world of gin; hip and very cool. The perfect accompaniment to the booming “ginterest,” this new edition includes a section on foodpairing (with new recipes!) with gin, and an overview of the most famous gin bars across the globe.
In Must Eat Amsterdam, Luc Hoornaert leads us to the culinary hotspots in the capital with more nationalities than any other, worldwide: Amsterdam. Again the ‘Must Eat’ - the absolute ‘must have’ dish - of a restaurant is the central point: from food stalls to small cafés and trendy top restaurants. Despite their differences, all places have these things in common: authenticity, dedication, good ingredients and a no-nonsense approach. Must Eat Amsterdam also allows you to get to know the chef behind each dish and documents their love for the produce. It is illustrated with beautiful photographs by Kris Vlegels.
After The Big Apple in Must Eat NYC, ISBN 9789401419147, Luc Hoornaert now leads us to the culinary hotspots in the New York of Europe: London. Restaurant guides exist in different shapes and sizes, but this is the first series of guides to focus on the “must eat”, the speciality, of a restaurant. As with the first book in the series, the “Must Eat” element of a restaurant is the central point: from food stalls to small cafés and trendy top restaurants. Despite their differences, all the places in this book have these things in common: authenticity, dedication, good ingredients and a no-nonsense approach. Luc Hoornaert has been active in the gastronomical world for over 25 years, supplying rare and high quality Japanese products to international chefs. Long stays abroad have sharpened his senses and his constant search and curiosity for good and tasty food have brought him to places he now finally shares with the public.

Once the second capital of the British Empire, Dublin is a city with a history both glorious and tragic. This guide leads you behind the granite façades and postcard-perfect pictures to explore the heart and soul of the city. Encounter a whiskey-soaked windmill guarded by St. Patrick; pay your respects to the grave of a muchdecorated four-legged war hero; discover a House of the Dead on an island you can reach on foot, or explore a literary micro-museum where everybody buys soap. 111 Places in Dublin takes you on an intimate, insider’s tour of the Hibernian metropolis.
Miami and the Keys are the cultural and geographical gateways to the United States; where Latin America gracefully blends into North America, and land embraces the sea. This unusual guide leads you along the fulcrum that is Miami and the Keys, laden with world-class architecture, sandy beaches, pristine waters, nightclubs, and trendy hotels. Lose yourself in a glass rainforest. Glide over the mysterious waters of the Everglades. Visit your own desert island. Drink the sweet nectar of the Cuban coffee gods. Venture into the “other” Miami, beyond the glitz and glamour, steeped in natural beauty and deepseeded tradition.
Now the political and cultural mecca controlling the pulse of India, the vibrant capital city of Delhi has been ruled by many powerful empires and seduced many powerful rulers over the centuries. This unusual guidebook invites readers on an adventure beyond the well-mapped and bestknown landmarks to explore Delhi’s most hidden pleasures and unravel its most shrouded mysteries. Walk the byzantine lanes of Old Delhi, offer alcohol to a god, savour a biriani made by the emperors’ cooks, meet the sitar maker to the Beatles, visit India’s oldest toy shop, gaze upon the abandoned statue of a legendary queen, and experience the many cities within the city.
Birthplace of Jazz, home to the world famous Mardi Gras, champion of voodoo and vampires, purveyors of its own distinctive Creole and Cajun cuisines, New Orleans, once owned by France, then Spain, then France again, has a rich history that blends the unconventional with the orthodox to create a cultural collision unlike that found in any other city. This insider’s guide to New Orleans is shaped by portraits of the less obvious, hidden treasures rarely seen by the 10 million tourists who visit “The Big Easy” each year, ensuring that you experience the musical, spiritual, historical, edible, and quite often sinful side of America’s Most Interesting City.

The father and son team of H & D Zielske document the city of Berlin. It is their unique orchestration of the light and their surgically sharp perception of the cityscape as a stage set, that make the Zielske photographs so outstanding. The images present a very special view of Berlin that boasts a rare intensity. In this book the photographic artists tell the city’s histories, from the pioneering days of the late-19th century and the Berlin of the Cold War, to modern and post-modern Berlin. Their narrative approach and their personal visual language have permitted Horst and Daniel Zielske to unveil entirely new facets in Germany’s most-photographed city and to tell the story of Berlin in their pictures. Like few other metropolises, London successfully marries both history and modernity. The spirit of Charles Dickens still seems to be everywhere in the city’s narrow lanes, yet in the banking district, flamboyant skyscrapers soar into the sky. The father-and-son team of photographers, Horst and Daniel Zielske, have managed to perfectly capture these contrasts, clearly demonstrating the unity of the past and the present. Every place, every perspective, every entirely unexpected view demonstrates the sensitivity and empathy these two photographers have for this city, which is steeped in history and simultaneously so forward-looking. Their images make London come alive as a remarkable universe of contrasts.
In this photographic art book, Horst and Daniel Zielske yet again document a mega-metropolis with an extraordinary and atmospheric cycle of images: New York - street scenes, backyards, the rusty stilts of the elevated railway in Harlem, a deserted side-street devoid of human life. The photographers have renounced all frippery; they simply observe very closely, search for a long time, until they have the optimal angle and perspective. These are images of New York City with an unknown tranquillity and an almost palpable stillness. In these moving photographs, even well-known masterpieces of modern architecture such as the Solomon R Guggenheim Museum reveal an entirely new magic.
Cubes as far as the horizon, lost in a grey-brown haze. Motorways with several levels, without beginning, without end, built on pylons; small houses ducking down to the ground in between, like forgotten belongings. Thousands of windows in a heaven-storming concrete wall; above them a motionless sky. The skyline seems to have been cut into the soberly illuminated night with a scalpel. Shanghai, an illusion in glistening mist, colourful shades, hard lines. Since 2002, the photographers have accompanied Shanghai during its emergence as a world metropolis, the brachial farewell from the ancient Asian city, replaced by mega-structures. The focal point of their photographic oeuvre is the architecture of the street. This is an essay on the topic of the urban landscape.

The last remaining animal paradises on Earth, magnificent geological formations and outstanding natural landscapes represent a unique treasure and are now under the protection of the world community. In view of the progressive global destruction of the environment, the International Convention for the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage of the World was adopted at the UNESCO World Heritage Convention in Paris in 1972. This volume presents all the World Natural Heritage Sites, with detailed texts and stunning colour photography. Brand new and fully-illustrated with over 2,000 photographs, this book explores the most fascinating travel destinations on Earth. This trailblazing tour takes in ancient capitals of Europe, the awe-inspiring Amazon rainforest, the natural wonders of Africa, volcanic mountains in Iceland, fast-expanding cities of East Asia, the imposing monuments of the Middle East and much more. Astonishing facts are incorporated into full-page illustrations, bringing each destination to life.
From illustrious superclubs to intimate venues, London has a great range of glamorous nightspots and exquisite bars on offer. Many of London’s party places started out as illegal venues in abandoned warehouses, railway arches, derelict market halls or deserted factories which makes them interesting not only from a cultural and sociological, but also from an architectural point of view. After documenting the charms of Parisian brasserie culture last year, Henk van Cauwenbergh now captures the essence of London’s clubscene and the city’s most iconic nightlife venues. What are the newest and hippest venues in Belgium to eat, drink and sleep? This book collects the addresses that have been chosen carefully by the redaction of www.newplacestobe.com and shares them with the reader to discover the hidden gems, off the beaten track. As opposed to many restaurant websites, newplacestobe.com provides a strict selection of places that match their objective standards.
A journey with Hurtigruten along Norway’s west coast is one of the most beautiful voyages in the world - past snow-covered mountains, deep blue fjords and vast plains that have never failed to captivate anyone. Aerial photographer Dirk Laubner followed the route from Bergen to Kirkenes with his camera; he now takes us on a flight over the stunning and intriguing landscape up in the northern reaches of Scandinavia.
A one-of-its-kind sensory journey across the length and breadth of India. Young, up-and-coming photographers explore India through the five senses sight, touch, taste, sound, and smell. Their fresh perspective behind the lens and the colours, moods, and moments that their cameras captured gives a unique and definitive peek into the buzzing culture of India.

Vega Sicilia 150th Anniversary Harry Eyres and Serena Sutcliffe Vega Sicilia is unquestionably a unique wine, and one of the great Spanish classics. Its personality not only comes from the maximum quality of the grape and the rigour involved in its manufacture, but also, and above all, from the care for detail that the Álvarez family has succeeded in transmitting to the wines. This book is a celebration of the winery’s 150th anniversary, making it one of the oldest not only in Spain, but throughout Europe. Designed in the style of an artist’s book, this publication shows very personal views of the winery and its wines through the eyes of three artists: Gautier Deblonde, Johnnie Shand Kydd and Ricca Kawai Kalderon. Their contribution is to give life and colour to the words of Harry Eyres (Financial Times) and Serena Sutcliffe (Sotheby’s).

28 FOOD & DRINK
The creators of Zazà Ramen, in Milan, are an internationally renowned chef and a Japanese entrepreneur who have chosen Italy as their home. This book is the story of Zazà Ramen: the story behind the quality and the process, Japanese craftsmanship, chefs & cooking, the style and the art. Paying attention to seasonal products, this is a book for every foodie; it is practical and easy to follow, yet beautifully designed.
Indian cuisine traditionally conjures up images of tantalising food steeped in fragrant spices, enriched with subtleties of different flavours, exotic methods of cooking such as dum, baghar, and dhungar. This haute cuisine has, however, remained the allure of specialty restaurants and gourmet cooks. Art of Indian Cuisine changes all that! Having perfected his recipes for over a decade, Rocky Mohan brings these luscious preparations within the convenient reach of a modern kitchen with ease. Sensuous is the word that best defines the flavour and texture of Indian cuisine, a cuisine that is visually and aromatically one of the most opulent in the world. Marut Sikka, acclaimed food consultant, cuts out the fuss, and shares home-style Indian dishes that are perfect for everyday cooking. Indian Flavours starts with a brief introduction to some of the spices of India. The rest of the book is divided into sections such as the Spice Family, Fresh Herbs and Vegetables, Dried Herbs, Seeds and Leaves, and Dried Fruits. The wholesome yet exotic home-cooking of the Khan Family is famous in the film circles, and the crème de la crème of Bollywood wax eloquent about the famous biryani served at the Khan's annual Eid party. In this book, we bring you some of the most special recipes from the most famous kitchen in the film industry, with recipes handed-down over the generations. Compellingly photographed and featuring casual pictures of the family, the author shares intimate details of what might be on the table when the star-family gets together for their Sunday meal.

“Just the mention of his name. You can say it like an incantation, and a whole world is right there before you. Sinatra…” Martin Scorsese “He was the epitome of what singing is all about.

“…style and fashion mattered greatly, were central to their presentation, and I became fascinated with them… I discovered what I believed was a subculture of chic and I thought it merited a story.” Baron Wolman The 1960s witnessed a huge cultural revolution. Music was at the heart of a new generation’s rallying cry for love, peace and harmony. With men dominating as musicians and performers, the women and girls backstage started to explore their own forms of liberation and self-expression. They became better known as the Groupies. On February 15, 1969 Rolling Stone magazine released a ‘Special Super-Duper Neat Issue’ called ‘THE GROUPIES and Other Girls’ featuring the work of their chief photographer, Baron Wolman. With this single issue, the Groupies had arrived. Now, over 45 years later, ACC and Iconic Images are proud to publish the photos of Baron Wolman in a single volume for the first time. Groupies features previously unseen out-takes and contact sheets, and comes complete with the original Rolling Stone text, as well as interviews with several of the women today. On October 25 and 26, 1975, Elton John - the world’s biggest pop star - performed two sold-out shows in California’s Dodger Stadium. The biggest rock star in the world was going to stage two nights in one of America’s most beloved and famous venues. Photographer Terry O’Neill was on-hand to capture every moment. O’Neill was given unprecedented access to document this incredible occasion and now, for the first time in book form, these photos - many of which have never been seen before - celebrate two milestone days in music history. Through private moments as well as public ones O’Neill creates a visual record that will forever help define this moment of time when music’s most outlandish performer overcame his personal and professional demons to create two days of performance legend all leading-up to the ultimate moment: Elton John on-stage in a Bob Mackie designed sequined Dodger uniform - complete with ‘Elton #1’ emblazoned on the back, raising a baseball bat high in the air. It was a home run
Eight Arms to Hold You is a unique publication. It features both rare and unseen photos and materials from the movie Help!, drawn from archives on all four corners of the planet; all of which is forensically remastered by one of the country's best forensic art and image restorers, Paul Skellett. The book is curated by world renowned Beatles author, Simon Wells (Beatles 365 Days and Beatles Japan). This is one of the most meticulously researched and restored Beatles titles to date, with support from Rex Features Archive, The British Film Institute, The Pete Nash Collection, The Vincent Vigil Collection, The Mark Hayward Collection, The Cavern Club, The Beatles Story Museum, The Hard Days Night Hotel, The Beatles Fest and many other private collectors. Richard Lester, the legendary director of Help! has also lent his assistance in releasing parts of his private collection (including the original hand noted script) as well as being part of the book's final approval process. Includes photography by Richard Lester, Robert Freeman, Michael Peto, Emilio Lari, Gisa Kothe, Jerrold F. Hilton, Karl Höfner.

Clive Arrowsmith is one of the world’s most celebrated photographers. He has photographed a long list of celebrities including Yves Saint Laurent, Richard Gere, Yoko Ono and The Dalai Lama and worked on major stills advertising campaigns such as De Beers, Revlon, G.H.D., and Lexus. This is the first book to celebrate his astonishing career. Holz Hollywood is the true Hollywood story of photographer George Holz. It is a rich narrative of celebrity portraiture spanning over three decades. Holz's portraits are a virtual Who’s Who of popular culture, including Nicolas Cage, Mariah Carey, Cameron Diaz, Anne Hathaway, Dennis Hopper, Michael Jordan, Monica Lewinsky, Madonna, Jack Nicholson, Sigourney Weaver and countless others. In Holz Hollywood Grammy® Award winner George Holz presents an intimate glimpse into a glamorous world.
On assignment for Look magazine to photograph the movie star in 1961, Douglas Kirkland photographed Marilyn Monroe and made history for both himself and for the actress. Working in the intimate confines of an unmade bed, the result is a series of some of the most spontaneous and flirtatious photographs ever taken of this film legend. The complete collection of the shoot is accompanied here in a book that belongs on the shelf of every collector, devotee, and connoisseur of the icon that was Marilyn Monroe, the genius that is Douglas Kirkland, or both. Celebrate Marilyn Monroe, whose monumental reputation endures well beyond the decades since her death; in a gorgeous presentation that is as glamorous as the actress herself . This beautiful deluxe edition includes a regular edition book (see above) in a collector’s cloth box as well as a limited edition numbered print signed by Douglas Kirkland.
The 1970s and 80s in New York were a dazzling age. Since the 1920s in Paris, the world had not seen such a cultural movement. Von Hohenberg lived and photographed this period, when the giants of fashion, art and society rubbed elbows with drag queens and addicts in clubs like the legendary Studio 54. This historic “time capsule” contains portraits of personalities like Allen Ginsberg, Julian Schnabel and Cornelia Guest, Robert F. Kennedy Junior and Britney Spears, to name just a few. With texts and handwritten letters from acclaimed American writers like Jay McInerney, Candace Bushnell, Anthony Haden-Guest, Michael Gross, and Bob Colacello.

This is the ultimate book on rough and tough surfing. Breathtaking landscapes, remote and desolate places, the highest waves, the most spectacular jumps and a story of surfing to the ends of the world. A photographic homage to surfing in extreme conditions, made by an international surfer and his team. High Tide, A Surf Odyssey follows the surfers in their epic journeys and achievements in the most diverse land- and seascapes. This book portrays the ultimate battle between the elements and mankind: the water and the waves against the board and man. Searching for wild, remote destinations and offbeat landscapes, Chris Burkard portrays the humble placement of the human in contrast to nature. At the age of 28, Burkard has established himself as a known name in the surf and outdoor industries. www.chrisburkard.com

They wear white Converse sneakers and brilliantly-hued Hawaiian shirts printed with religious images (mainly the Virgin of Guadalupe and San Judas Tadeo); their accessories, handkerchiefs, caps, and scapulars hanging around their necks to distinguish where they belong and who they are, which is their message to the world. Amanda Watkins’ collection of portraits from the community of Cholombians in Monterrey is more than the evidence of the growing violence that has stricken the country in recent years and the many ways youth is responding to it. It’s about cultural migration on the border cities: how it can be so rich and colourful in contrast with the poverty, marginalisation, and disenchantment of an urban concrete environment. With brief descriptions that take us to a hot night in downtown Monterrey with cumbia music softly playing on a far away radio station, these “photo albums” demand to be seen and recognised, as Cholombians themselves, too.
For a long time, Marcel Rius, a self-taught photographer, visited Star Wars fans in their homes, where he portrayed them with and without their costumes obtaining a shocking contrast between the ordinary backgrounds and the crafty, laborious individual transformations. Moreover, he accompanied them to conventions, movie premieres and all kinds of events gathering testimonies with the intention of capturing the different motivations behind collections and outfits. That way we come to the conclusion that for authentic fans dressing up as their favourite Star Wars character is more than just a hobby, it's the opportunity to become someone else, someone that reunites their noblest aspirations, the virtues and strengths they have always dreamt of. They become someone OUT OF THIS WORLD.

As a child, Bill Hayward traversed thousands of miles of American highway, peering out the window from the backseat of his father’s Chevy. On the road, Bill and his sister embarked upon an epic journey of the imagination, making believe they were “chasing dragons” through vast landscapes. Presented here is a stunning visual autobiography, chronicling more than five decades of artistic vision. Chasing Dragons traces the evolution of Hayward’s work from traditional portraiture to increasingly abstract and altered images, figurative paintings, dance, performance, and film. Join Hayward on this creative odyssey, exploring the fundamental elements of humankind and probing the mystery that lies at the core of your own being. From 2010 to 2014, photographer Nick Hannes travelled the length and breadth of the Mediterranean shores, documenting various contemporary issues such as tourism, urbanisation and migration. While he was working on this project, the region continuously hit the headlines: crisis in Greece, the Arab Spring, boat refugees on Lampedusa, wars in Libya, Syria, and Gaza. One thing is for sure: the Mediterranean was centre stage once more. Nick Hannes’ images capture the paradoxes of this region and the spirit of the time most significantly. They put things into perspective. Serious and moving in one moment, hilarious and ironic in the next. Anne Menke has travelled the world on assignment for the likes of Vogue, ELLE, and Marie Claire, usually in search of the perfect environment to shoot a fashion spread. During her travels, she discovered that these environments are the origins of much of the fashion we see on the catwalks today. In See the World Beautiful, Menke turns her camera away from professional photo shoots to the local populations, which are equally as compelling and stunning as the highly crafted shoots for major magazines, compiling an incredible record of people and places, exploring the roots and inspiration of today’s fashion and style while simultaneously documenting the rich culture of the locations she visits. Groundhoppers travel to soccer fields and stadiums for the sake of the fields, not for the game. They bring tribute to the ‘fields of honour’, where old and young can pretend to be the new Messi and where fans give their soul for their club. Past glory, hilarious surrealism, impossible locations. In this book photographer Jurgen Vantomme portrays the soccer fields of Belgium. He sometimes focuses on the players on the field but more often he looks at the surroundings in which the game of games is played from the cheering elderly in an almost empty stadium, to games in the snow.
The Netherlands: a country with a unique geographical character due to the wonderful balance between land and water. Where else in the world can you ride your bicycle from a busy centre to a landscape fit for a Vermeer painting in less than 15 minutes? Or to the big rivers, the old fortified cities, the water works? For this surprisingly diverse photography book photographer Ewout Huibers has crossed the country over the course of a year. The result is a visual encounter with a land in all its diversity. Ewout Huibers is the photographer of Amsterdam. A Metropolitan Village ISBN 9789089895745.

Harmony
The opera looks back on a history of more than 400 years. Whatever changes may have been necessary, the opera’s essential tools are the voice and the singing. The Wiener Staatsoper is renowned for presenting the world’s best singers every evening. Harmony portrays these vocalists, all 54 members of the Wiener Staatsoper ensemble in the season 2014/2015.
Ensemble 2014/2015 Wiener Staatsoper Herwig Pecoraro, Dominique Meyer, Lois Lammerhuber ISBN: 9783901753855 Edition Lammerhuber 320 x 240mm. 220pp. 91 col. July 2015, £60.00 Hardback Text in English, French, and German.
The book gives us an idea of how opera really works, describes past and present ensembles and the everyday life of an opera singer. Kammersänger Herwig Pecoraro, tenor and president of the Solistenverband, and photographer Lois Lammerhuber invited the singers to ‘portray themselves’ without costume or make-up. The artists were to be photographed following their own ideas and wishes, dressed in their own clothes, and set in their favourite spot in the opera house. The result is a collection of very personal photographs.
White Ebony
Just as the ‘black continent’ is nothing like as monochrome as our stereotyped ideas of it, so neither are the skin tones of its inhabitants. One variant, however, here more than elsewhere, marks people out as misfits: very white skin, unusually light hair colour, blue or green eyes. This congenital metabolic disease is called albinism. People with albinism (PWA) are often visually impaired and need special protection from the sun. Most of all they suffer from social stigmatisation. So it is little short of a miracle how courageously and confidently that the PWA of Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, try to overcome their role as outsiders. Lead by the famous Congolese albino wrestler, Mwimba Texas, they demand to be treated with respect. In her photographs Patricia Willocq helps boost the self-assurance of people with albinism in the Congo. Her photo report is a testimony to hope, courage, love and success to give them the dignity they deserve.

Since it was first published in 1972, Learning from Las Vegas has become a classic in the theory of architecture and one of the most influential architecture texts of the 20th century. The treatise by Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown and Steven Izenour enjoys a reputation as a signal work of postmodernism in architecture and urban planning. Las Vegas Studio, originally published in hardback in 2008, was the first publication ever to present significant photographs in large colour reproductions. Now available again in a new paperback edition, this unique book features 102 of these iconic images and film stills, alongside essays by Swiss scholars Stanislaus von Moos and Hans Ulrich Obrist exploring how the pictures contemplate the phenomenon of the modern city. Also included is a discussion with Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas and Swiss artist Peter Fischli that speaks to the strong and lasting influence these images still have on contemporary art and movies. The Nobel Prize is famous the world over; the personalities who receive it, however, are practically unknown. In 2000, the photographer Peter Badge was commissioned to shoot portraits of all living Nobel Laureates. Since then, he has travelled around the world in order to photograph physicists, medical scientists, economists, literati and peace activists. Over the years, he has met and photographed more than 400 Nobel Laureates: a mammoth project, which has been accompanied by many surprises. The meetings with the Nobel Laureates were often far more than mere photo shoots: Peter Badge met the laureates in their private surroundings and often in highly personal situations. As with his internationally acclaimed photographs, Peter Badge also demonstrates with his amusing and compassionate stories his remarkable intuition for the essence and charisma of those he portrays, as well as for the profound depth of the moment.
When does a war begin and when does it really end? Every war leaves traces, scars in the landscape, and people’s resulting traumas are passed from one generation to the next. Post-war times can also become the years before a war. Over ten years, Swiss photographer Meinrad Schade has recorded the precarious life oscillating between war and peace in parts of Russia, Chechnya and Ingushetia, in Kazakhstan, the Armenian Nagorno-Karabakh region, and in Ukraine. His portraits, still lifes, interiors, street scenes, and landscapes introduce the viewer to remote places and preliminary events. Schade’s images show the long-term effects of old conflicts on people. This new book features a selection of some 160 images from Schade’s “War Without War project”. The essays tell the history of the countries and their conflicts, look at the decline and struggle for resurrection of the Soviet empire, and reflect on chances and restrictions of documentary photography.

38 PHOTOGRAPHY
For his signature style Jordi Gómez mixes an arresting photographic cocktail of glamour, fun and sex-appeal, shooting fashion, advertising and lifestyle photography in his inimitable glossy style. Based in Ibiza, Gómez is surrounded by some of the world's most enigmatic and beautiful people, enveloped in a magical light from dawn 'til dusk. Glamour collides with nature, hedonsim, high end living and the world's most exciting brands. Much of his work epitomises Ibiza’s sexy clash of colours and larger than life personalities. Congolese Kiripi Katembo (b.1979, Goma) began his artistic career as a painter, but in his late twenties his interest shifted towards photography and video art. Nonetheless his background as a painter is unmistakable in his video work and photographic oeuvre. Katembo paints with a camera, writes a story in pictures. By shifting focus Katembo makes the unattractive attractive, renders the transient timeless and unveils that which should have been kept hidden. His atypical compositions capture our gaze and dare us to look differently. From the disbelief and outrage that the 2004 massacres in his beloved homeland of Burundi had been ignored by the international media, simply because of the lack of an image archive, Teddy Mazina decided to become a photographer. The raw and confrontational images are not necessarily meant to shock and disturb, but hope to create a new awareness. This book is a testimony to Mazina’s artistic-social struggle against the indifference and the collective amnesia in his country.
With a superb eye for the beauty and inconsistencies of inconspicuous details, the photobook In Secret: Friederike von Rauch presents the viewer with astounding views of interior spaces. Her compositions of light and shadow, disclose a subtle artistic aesthetic and are at times evocative of abstract painting. Her photographs were all taken with an analogue camera and in natural light. Seen from von Rauch’s point of view, dark alcoves, bare walls, individual objects, and traces of the human hand develop a life of their own while at the same time allowing room for interpretation. Christoph Brech has enjoyed a privilege unlikely to be granted to anyone else any time soon. For three years he was allowed to photograph the halls and galleries of the Vatican Museums unhindered by the never-ending throngs of visitors. On his day - and night-time - excursions through the countless exhibition spaces and the Sistine Chapel, he captured images of extraordinary tranquility. A beautifully illustrated publication that offers new perspectives on the many attractions of this magnificent world-class museum. Comet Photo AG was founded in Zürich 1952 to supply images to local and national media. Photo Mosaic Switzerland features some 150 images from the Comet Photo collection, documenting the rapid changes Switzerland underwent during the 20th century’s later decades. They are arranged by topic, such as change and modernisation, industry, agriculture, the vanishing and vanished, the traditional and timeless, celebrities and glamour, or major events.

She’s been referred to as the “Sufi Frida Kahlo.” Maïmouna Guerresi is a photographer, whose work sometimes incorporates sculpture, video, and installation art. Her unique style combines Afro-Asian themes and symbolism with the traditions of Western classical iconography. This unique mélange incorporates cultural and religious influences, and fusion of different artistic languages. Her meticulously composed and highly impactful photographs include veiled figures that symbolise the body as a sacred building, a modernist style reminiscent of some traditional Madonnas of classical art. The costumes are made of fabrics that she has collected in travels in Africa or Asia. The book is composed of ten chapters, ranging from “Light Signs: Frontiers Between the Known and Unknown” to “The Giants: Dark Faces of the Great Spirit Guides” through photographs that are totally distinctive in terms of creating environments that are fantastic and ethereal and unlike the work of any other photographer working today. Jitu The Fisherman is a wonderful collection of timeless photography of James Stephenson’s twenty year spiritual journey through Africa, exploring the heart of this incredible land. His words and images take the reader into the world of shamanism, of storytelling, mythology and magic as he travels with Jitu, a local witch doctor and fisherman; his journey uncovers the folklore of the ocean and ends at the sacred mountain Nundulungu, where he and the Hadzabe Bushmen visited before, that became the foundation for his writing. This is travel writing with heart and soul; conveying a deep respect for indigenous cultures and traditions accompanied by some powerful and emotive images.
The Selous Game Reserve in southern Tanzania is Africa’s oldest and largest protected area. Proclaimed in 1896 the Selous is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Selous remains one of Africa’s largest and greatest undisturbed ecosystems, teeming with life including one of the two largest elephant populations remaining on the African continent, probably half of all of the wild dogs in Africa, vast herds of buffalo as well as more lions than any other protected area on the continent as reported by National Geographic in August 2013. The game reserve is becoming more important by the day as the pressure on elephants and other species grows problems that are addressed here in this book. New York-born photographer Rob Ross has spent much of the past four years photographing in this vast and difficult to access reserve. He has compiled more than 100,000 images showing all aspects of the reserves varied landscapes, seasons, flora and large and small fauna. The spectacular large-format photography book features a selection of the very best images including landscapes, wildlife portraits and behaviour, night photography, impressionist style work and breath-taking aerials.

In the 1960s, American architect Robert Venturi made a case for the difficult whole, opposing mainstream modern architecture that ignores all the intricacies of life and produces pure space, or “easy unity”. This new book, edited by Architecture Without Content, a research group at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne’s School of Architecture, offers a fresh analysis and a thorough re-evaluation of Venturi s idea of “the difficult whole” as both a looking glass and a possible tool for architecture today. Through a radical re-reading of found material from the Venturi Scott Brown archives, the editors seek to propose a credible alternative to contemporary architectural discourse. This elusive position is elaborated in essays, complemented by interviews with Kazunari Sakamoto and Alvaro Siza. Around 35 projects by Venturi Scott Brown, and also by Alvaro Siza and James Stirling, form a visual narrative with original plans and other archive material as well as new perspective images and photographs especially produced for this book. When Eero Saarinen’s Flight Center for Trans World Airlines (TWA) opened at New York’s JFK International Airport in 1962 it was a sensation. Saarinen’s striking design got much publicity throughout its operational life until closure in 2001. It was regarded as an emblem of the jet-age, yet it never really suited its operational requirements. When the new B747 Jumbo Jet arrived in 1970, it already proved outdated and inefficient for the number of passengers using it. Designing TWA for the first time tells the entire story of TWA terminal at JFK. It documents its architecture in areas of conflict between flight operations, design and public relations. It also investigates how the building remained an icon of jet-propelled aviation while never properly serving its purpose for just that industry. The new book features a wealth of images showing the TWA Flight Center in all its beauty, alongside many documents and plans. The concise text offers much detail, reaching far beyond previous publications on one of the world’s best-known buildings. Christian Menn ranks among the most renowned structural engineers worldwide. He continues the tradition of Swiss excellence in the construction of bridges and has, both as designing engineer and as a teacher, been highly influential for decades. This new monograph documents Menn’s work, vision, thinking and philosophy. Around thirty of his designs, built and unrealised, are featured in large full-colour photographs, many of them newly taken for this book, and with rich technical detail and plans. Menn's own texts show his passion as well as his immense experience in dealing with the particular circumstances and surrounding conditions of each project. Essays by fellow engineer David P. Billington, scholar Werner Oechslin, and writer and publicist Iso Camartin look at Menn’s oeuvre from different points of view. The book offers a rich insight into Menn’s lifelong examination of the fundamentals of his profession, and it is also a comprehensive reflection on the art of structural engineering.

Le Corbusier (1887-1965) - visionary architect, urban planner and theorist of modernity, and also an accomplished painter and sculptor - made a profound impression on the 20th century in dramatically changing architectural design and the way people lived in it. This new book, coinciding with a major retrospective at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, shows the output of this major figure in modernity through the idea of human proportions, the human body being essential as a universal principle defining all aspects of architecture and spatial composition. Le Corbusier: The Measures of Man offers a fresh journey through his work.
Coinciding with the 50th anniversary of his death, one of Le Corbusier's most significant books becomes available again in English. “Precisions”, as the book is commonly known, emerged from a spontaneous and exuberant series of lectures Le Corbusier gave in Buenos Aires in 1929. They contain some of his most compelling aphorisms, covering technique as the basis of architecture, the human scale in design, furniture, the private house, apartments and office buildings, the city, the League of Nations competition, teaching architecture. This new edition for the first time features all of Le Corbusier’s drawings in colour. A new essay by British scholar Tim Benton, written for this new edition, contextualises the “Precisions” within Le Corbusier’s oeuvre and comments on their lasting significance. Leipzig-born photographer Margret Hoppe is a promising new voice in European photographic art. This new book features her series Après une Architecture, a photographic perspective of Le Corbusier’s architecture that refers to his concept of a modern architecture laidout in the book Vers une architecture (Toward an Architecture) of 1923. Hoppe's images show Le Corbusier's use of exposed concrete, the clarity of his geometric shapes and the emblematic polychrome surfaces as symbols of his buildings. She investigates what remains today of these visions of architectural modernism, now that its legacy in many cases is adored as a monument rather than actually used and appreciated as a functional piece of architecture.
Chandigarh, built in the 1950s to a scheme by Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret with their team of international and Indian architects, is regarded as an icon of modernist urban design. Austrian artist Werner Feiersinger has recently travelled to the legendary capital of India’s federal state Punjab. Inspired by Ernst Scheidegger’s book Chandigarh 1956, he has put together a vast pictorial account of the city’s famous architecture today. This new book features some 300 of Feiersinger’s photographs, capturing the place’s vivid atmosphere and virtuosity and illustrates its continuous topicality. The essay by Austrian architect Andreas Vass reflects on Chandigarh’s history, its architectural qualities, and its future development.

44 ARCHITECTURE
ETH Zurich’s new building LEE is an extraordinary project from both an urban planning and an architectural design perspective. In terms of construction, Zürich-based architect Fawad Kazi has been breaking new ground. Accordingly, this new monograph is structured in three sections focusing on three aspects: integration into urban context; design and construction and materialisation of the precast concrete structure; and a comprehensive documentation of the entire building with images and plans. Topical essays look at specific aspects of the project. Géraldine Borio and Caroline Wüthrich have been living and working in Hong Kong since 2008 and 2010 respectively. With their architectural research firm Parallel Lab they investigate various forms of occupancy of urban space. Hong Kong in Between is a very attractive, nearly artistic presentation of Borio and Wüthrich’s findings; they show how people in Hong Kong occupy the city’s in-between-spaces. The book also documents the playful social interventions and experiments the two architects-researchers carried out within their project. During John V. Lindsay’s Mayoral tenure in New York, 1966-73, the city created innovative policy intended to draw on-location media production to New York’s streets. Simultaneously, the New York City Planning Commission produced documents that reflect conceptual and aesthetic influences of various visual media. American architect McLain Clutter undertook to analyse to what remarkable extent the effects of these two areas of political ambition were interrelated. This is a unique analysis of the relationship between media policy and urban design. Founded in 2004 and based in Shanghai and London, neri & hu design and research office works internationally providing architecture, interior, master planning, graphic, and product design services. This first ever book on neri & hu design and research office documents a selection of their work in architecture and product design. An introduction and a topical essay on renovation as well as an overview of neri & hu design and research office’s projects to date round out the book.
Space of Production, based on extensive research done by Atelier Kuo at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne’s School of Architecture, revisits spaces of production through seminal projects, text contributions, and studio explorations. Topical essays investigate specific aspects of the industrial building. The book features examples from the past 100 years with floor plans and sections as well as photographs. Work by students of Atelier Kuo is presented with photographs, brief descriptive texts and plans.
The Superblock in the Swiss city of Winterthur is the winning design for the conversion of a former industrial site in today’s heart of town. This new book documents the Superblock project comprehensively. Photographs and numerous plans and visualisations show the development of the entire site and the new complex. An essay on the eventful history of Sulzer’s former manufacturing site, its recent development and new use rounds out the book.

Gisela Erlacher has, for more than twenty years, been working on contemporary architecture and on topics related to urban and suburban space. For her recent project Skies of Concrete she travelled to China, Britain, the Netherlands and to parts of her home country Austria. The images show bridges: elevated roads in cities, viaducts, entangled lanes of expressway intersections. Yet Erlacher’s interest is neither on the function of bridges nor on their nature as symbols for communication or mobility. She directs her gaze at the spaces that the crossing of a transport route causes to open up as a specific area within the urban fabric or in the countryside. She focuses on absurd situations that can occur when existing structures are drastically changed by building a bridge or when dead spaces beneath bridges are functionalised in one form or another. This new book features some forty of Erlacher’s striking photographs, complemented by essays on her work and the spaces she has captured in her images. The House of Switzerland is a relocatable building serving as Switzerland’s official visitor centre at major international events. Commissioned by Switzerland’s Federal Department of Foreign Affairs, the design is by Spillmann Echsle Architects with Ortreport scenographers, both based in Zürich. The unique timber structure consists of four houses of different sizes that can be used in combination or individually. The 193 modular elements, tailored to fit in standard truck containers, can be transferred and re-assembled at a new location within days. This new book features a dictionary of all elements in the pavilion’s building set by keyword, illustrated with images and plans and offering much technical detail. It presents the architectural and scenography concept and design, and also documents transport and assembly, again richly illustrated with photographs and plans and diagrams.
Habitat Marocain Documents Dynamics Between Formal and Informal Housing Sascha Roesler (ed.) ISBN: 9783906027760 Park Books 270 x 200mm. 200pp. 142 col., 35 b.&w. July 2015, £30.00 Paperback Text in English and French.
The Habitat Marocain housing project was built in Casablanca between 1954-56 by two Swiss architects, Jean Hentsch (1921-84) and André Studer (1926-2007). The complex was part of the reconstruction and expansion scheme for the city under the French colonial administration in Morocco after World War II and meant to house local people rather than European expatriates. Habitat Marocain is a prime example for the interplay between formal and informal building. The new book Habitat Marocain Documents investigates the contradictions between the architects’ cultural assumptions and the actual way of life of inhabitants. It documents the ethnographic influence on the design for the entire dwelling and shows the various transformations to the buildings later made by the residents. Habitat Marocain Documents tells the project’s entire history from early planning stage to first occupancy and beyond. The book reveals a complex process of research, design, construction, and inhabitation that continues until the present day.

Thailand’s tropical climate and Buddhist philosophies influence the nation’s architecture. Its architectural culture is also deeply influenced by countries such as China, India, and other Southeast Asian nations. While Thailand is influenced and has been absorbing the cultural nutrition of these nations, it has also been doing some innovative work, forming its own unique cultural style. This book showcases numerous projects that combine the beauty of the countries’ ubiquitous tropical forests with extraordinary national symbols that are becoming increasingly popular. Large landscapes use abstract patterns and natural materials to create a harmonious environment, and its these concepts that landscape designers harness to create an attractive vista. This impressive, richly illustrated book approaches the large-format landscaping theme by introducing its history across varied cultures, from the Romans to the present day, the methods used to rally the ecological landscape construction, the structure of the spaces, and current projects that showcase new design methodologies, implementation and management processes. This book showcases more than fifty extraordinary high-end residential projects produced by the architectural design firm GEEDESIGN. The book delves into the firm’s enduring practical design philosophy: designing a comfortable residence. GEEDESIGN: Selected Works of GEEDESIGN helps readers explore the comforts of a beautifully designed residence with rich photography, detailed drawings and full-colour graphics illustrating not only the design of the house, but also the design technique and process.

Best Tall Buildings A Global Overview of 2014 Skyscrapers Antony Wood, Steven Henry & Daniel Safarik ISBN: 9781864704112 The Images Publishing Group 254 x 203mm. 280pp. 400 col. December 2015, £49.95 Hardback
More than a description of the best tall buildings from around the world, this volume serves as a global overview of tall building construction and activity in a given year, highlighting some of the big achievements in the tall building field, particularly showing where innovation is happening. Tall buildings are oftentimes the subject of admiration only for their sheer height or skyline silhouette, and oftentimes criticised for their poor environmental performance (and not without justification). This book aims to change that impression by showing innovations that are particular to tall buildings, in addition to generally good architectural design and engineering prowess. This ambitious and comprehensive text provides in-depth descriptions of the buildings design and significance, accompanied by stunning images, detailed drawings, and plans. The CTBUH’s Awards series draws from the multi-disciplinary expertise of the practitioners directly involved in bringing these buildings to life. This guide is intended for anyone working on the design and operation of tall buildings at both the building and urban scales.

For each part the most striking cases have been selected with the newest design standards. Modern public space requires wayfinding information that can help users familiarise or adapt themselves in new building environments. This book is an informative and systematic compilation of many updated design works for wayfinding by international designing studios, ranging across shopping malls, gardens, hospitals, schools, office buildings, museums, libraries, among others. This book is a great reference for graphic designers, architects, scholars, or students majored in the design disciplines.
How do our minds work when we design? How do we organise and assimilate information, create and evaluate options, and make decisions? These questions have fascinated and absorbed architect and sculptor Richard Bertman (FAIA) since his graduate school days. Now, after a 40-year career, Bertman has used the design of a vacation house as an experiment to explore these questions. The result, documented in The Design Process and the Art of the Single Family Home, is a fascinating and revealing insight into the creative process. Contemporary architecture is often characterised by the total interpenetration of interior and exterior configurations: the differentiation between these two poles has become indistinguishable and the result of any design process is a hybrid product, based on the superposition of different and heterogeneous layers. The aim of Interior Landscapes is to unveil those invariant forms, principles or concepts that crossed the History of Architecture. By borrowing different interpretative elements - drawings, photographs, illustrations - Interior Landscapes is configured as a visual atlas, aimed to demonstrate how, through the contamination of interior and exterior, always-new architectural insights emerge.
An Ideal Collaboration The Art of Classical Details II Phillip James Dodd, foreword by Ellie Cullman In the follow-up to the critically acclaimed The Art of Classical Details, Phillip James Dodd continues his look at some of the finest examples of contemporary classical architecture in Great Britain and the United States, while also examining how collaboration is the key to their successful design. In reality, collaborative relationships are rare, especially amongst designers, where each is often focused on their own individual objectives and unable to transcend their own egos. Often used as a catch phase, but not often realised, true collaboration requires an understanding - and an appreciation - of the role that all parties play in the design and construction of a home.

Seaside Living explores how homes are designed to celebrate their enviable beachfront positions, allowing their inhabitants to form an ingenious bond with the natural landscape. Some houses are adapted from ramshackle retreats into modern glass and steel structures that frame the magnificent ocean views. Other residences reflect the architect's vision of working with sustainable materials, promoting both beauty and longevity, opting for a material palette that relies on suitability from the harsh, corrosive salt spray environment and representation with the location - reminiscent of flotsam, rich but weathered. The lure of the beach evokes a sense of relaxation and these homes are truly enticing spaces. Among the awe-inspiring projects in this book are stunning beach houses that range from peaceful retreats to edgy designer homes spanning the world over, including an extensive range from Europe, the United States, Australia and New Zealand.

The architect Bruno Taut (1880-1938) is regarded as a master of colourful building, setting new standards worldwide with his estates, especially the housing estate known as “Hufeisensiedlung” in Berlin-Britz. Built from 1925 to 1932, is internationally recognised as a key work of reform-oriented housing. The colourful estate, which was designed with lots of green spaces, is grouped around a 350-metre long building complex, spectacularly curved in the shape of a horseshoe. This high-quality architecture guidebook gives readers an insight into the history of architecture and construction as well as social history.
Photographer Hans Christian Krass approaches those buildings in Berlin that reflect modern architecture in an unusual way. In his succinct and straightforward photography he honours the architects’ endeavour to give each building its own identity, its distinctive character - in a conscious departure from the serial construction method in the 19th century. The book focuses on Siemensstadt, an example of “new living”, as well as buildings and ensembles from the 1950s and 1960s. One can also see examples of modern architecture until the beginning of the 21st century, for instance Berlin Central Station or the newly designed Bikini Haus. The chateau of Marly, unofficial residence of the French monarchs, was a place of experimentation in both architecture and furniture. Considered as an architectural wonder from the outset, the chateau owed its exceptional character as much to the originality of its architecture as to its use as an instrument of political power by Louis XIV, who made it a symbol of royal favour at court. Stéphane Castelluccio here traces the history of Marly, from the start of building work in 1679 to the Revolution. A leading specialist in seventeenthand eighteenth-century French interiors and furniture, he examines the legacy of each of the different monarchs who enjoyed the delights of the chateau and its gardens. The newly-cleaned stained glass of Canterbury Cathedral in Kent, England is a revelation - the vibrant colour and breathtaking detail are newly visible to today’s visitors. The finest of this glass has been reproduced within a lavishly designed book to be enjoyed by tourists and general readers alike. In this book, Michael Michael has the pleasure of selecting the most beautiful and important pieces of glass on display at the Cathedral. His text sets these within the context of the biblical stories they depict. An additional chapter written by Sebastian Strobl outlines the fascinating history of changing methods of restoration and conservation, as well as the work carried out today by the Cathedral’s expert team.

This edition offers us a close-up view of the geography, infrastructure and public space transformation in the Madrid Río project. It points out the importance of the urban transformation of the Manzanares River, which, up to date, is one of the best leisure, entertainment and physical recreation centres. It is structured into six sections that show the different ways to integrate the river in the city centre. It is compared with similar cases such as those of Berlin, Seoul and Boston. It includes several charts, maps and stunning colour photographs that offer us a spectacular view of the river’s metamorphosis as we discover how this project has changed the city and the life of its citizens. The young Fribourg architect and his team have already produced a notable number of high-quality buildings: small school buildings, for instance for the school in St-Cierges VD, which is placed with great topographic precision, the exciting ensemble of the vocational school in Domdidier FR and the cleverly conceived extension to the multifunctional hall in Sâles FR.
Kazunari Sakamoto (born 1943) has mainly been working on smaller residential buildings, in which he questions and explores the principles of architecture. His buildings and theoretical works have had a big influence on the contemporary Japanese architecture. The lecture is about his search for spaces, which enables the people to be free from the constraints and restrictions of our society and to develop freely.
In 2013, Hiéronyme Lacroix and Simon Chessex produced a student housing development close to the Geneva railway lines that represents exemplary urban architecture, with subtle nuances and a convincing resonance of the location’s dynamic atmosphere. Before and afterwards, they designed smaller residential developments and larger conversions of refined quality.
The two-part publication firstly documents the process of planning, building and operating the project ‘your+’ by the Lucerne University of Applied Science and Arts - Engineering & Architecture for the Solar Decathlon Europe 2014. In the second part, lecturers, students and partners reflect on the social, “Smart Sharing”. Short essays contribute to the interdisciplinary debate and reveal new perspectives for teaching, research and practice.

The book is organised into three chapters: Tools +Techniques, from black and white to colour drawings; Methods, where perspective drawing rules are established, followed by Learning from The Masters to learn colour theory and composition, then drawing Cityscapes + Landscapes, Aerial Perspectives, with demonstrations of Quick Draw and Slow Draw techniques; Drawing as a Way of Thinking, where Analytical Sketching, Sequential Serial View drawings and Developing Design Proposals Using the Story Board Method are illustrated.
Presented here are the assemblies and subsystems used in Ken Yeang’s projects, illustrating the ways in which ecological architecture could advance technically through devices and components that articulate and enhance “passive-mode” (bioclimatic low-energy design), mixed-mode, and sub-systems that foster ecological integration between the organic landscape, human occupants, and the inorganic, human-built environment. While the focus of most “green architects” tends to be technical compliance, Yeang’s contention is that ecoarchitecture needs to fully embrace the natural world and to have buildings designed and constructed as “living systems”. Green design is still very much in its adolescence, and there is work to be done. The assemblies and subsystems here illustrate the need for such developmental work. Democratic Architecture offers viable and affordable solutions to ongoing housing problems. The book deals with tough urban problems and raises questions not just about housing policy, but about larger political and ethical issues as well. It provides a critique of the various approaches to post-war housing and puts forth a number of innovative solutions to the problem. Many of the proposals are practical designs for low- and lowermiddle-income housing, with an emphasis on increasing opportunities for home ownership. They include a variety of detached homes, multi-unit buildings, and some alternative types of housing for people whose lifestyles diverge from the mainstream. Democratic Architecture is a book that clearly lays out solutions to housing crises that we see occurring all too often all over the world. As synthetic materials, mutant and hybrid concoctions attain prominence in our daily lives; the design and construction industries have instead reembraced the familiar, the conventional - wood, which has regained prominence through in engineering and construction methodologies. Technology is now commonly used and often affordably used - to cut, perforate, assemble, erect, and even fabricate materials in a manner not previously possible. Wood is one such material, and Timber in the City documents both the imaginings of those in the nascence of their education and practice and the executed work of design professionals at the leading edge of architecture. These designers, regardless of the duration of their immersion in the field, have imaginatively rethought the means by which we build and the methods by which we define space merely through differing deployments of a familiar building material.

LA+ (Landscape Architecture Plus) from the University of Pennsylvania School of Design is the first truly interdisciplinary journal of landscape architecture. Within its pages you will hear not only from designers, but also from historians, artists, lawyers, psychologists, ecologists, planners, scientists, philosophers, and many more besides.
Total Performance Architecture chronicles forty years of architecture at Booth Hansen, a distinguished firm deeply rooted in the architectural tradition of Chicago. With Laurence Booth, FAIA, as design principal, Booth Hansen enjoys a reputation for timeless form through strict attention to the unique conditions of each commission. This book examines the firm, its designs, and the creative process that is integral to successful architecture.
Imagine the most extreme urban environment on earth - a place three times as dense as Manhattan, enveloped in a constant flow of water, beset by a relentless stream of rural migrants, plagued by annual monsoons, and threatened by climate change. This is Dhaka, capital city of Bangladesh. Home to 14 million. Since 2007, architects Stephen Kieran and James Timberlake have directed a design-research laboratory on Dhaka for graduate students at the University of Pennsylvania School of Design. This book is the result of this extended study. The Clares, practising architecture on the far side of the world, approach their work with a philosophical position that produces beautiful, climatically responsive, low-impact, environmentally sensitive buildings. The projects in this book are selected, described and interpreted by Haig Beck and Jackie Cooper, the editors of UME magazine, and are published here as a booklength edition of UME magazine.
This is one in a series of books, each of which tells the story of a single building. It is hoped that as these books accumulate alongside Ennead’s body of work, they, in their aggregate, will form a profile of our design intentions.
Generations showcases six decades of the art and architecture of Herb Greene, informed by his readings in brain science and history. This “picture book” is organised to showcase images of Mr. Greene’s architectural work alongside large-scale images of his collage paintings and armature drawings in a way that reveals the unified philosophy behind all of his work. Its purpose is to tell a story of the important interrelationships between art, science, and philosophy, which is described with a simple narrative juxtaposed alongside these images.

This is a collection of work over a 15-year period. The work, varied in size, scale, program, and geography, has a common thread of work approach, process, and intent. The work illustrated covers a wide range of work, including projects for distinguished healthcare, research, and educational institutions, as well as innovative national and international corporate clients, significant urban and historic revitalisation work, mixed-use and residential projects, and citybased elementary and high school work.
Michael P. Johnson: The Unshakeable Search for Architecture, about the life work of architect Michael P. Johnson, speaks directly of his regional buildings from his native Wisconsin through his work after his migration to Arizona. It also expands upon his work in New York, Colorado, and California, and further in Canada, Mexico, and Italy.
This publication covers the first ten years of the AIA Small Project Awards program. Organised into four chapters Objects and Pavilions, Houses, Details, and Adaptive Reuse/Interiors this book reveals that small projects have properties, uses, foci, and contexts that are distinct from architecture that operates at larger scales.
An investigation into how place and context affects critical design development in an architectural siterelated programme. Based around conversations with Peter Zumthor, Steven Holl, Róisín Heneghan, Bjarne Ingels, Patrick Schumacher, Kjetil Thorsen, Craig Dykers, and Harry Gugger. The reader gains an intimate portrait of the concerns, thoughts and feelings of these architects as they reflect on their own practice in the midst of their working challenges and successes.
In the spring of 2012, the Department of Architecture at The University of Hong Kong conducted a series of Research and Design (R&D) studios within its Master of Architecture Program. One of the R&D topics, led by Mr. Anderson Lee, was to study and examine the potential role and development of a historical building in the heart of Hong Kong: The Old Wan Chai Police Station and Married Quarters. This book presents the recorded research.
llAW of WAll is a critique of absolutes: absolute closure and openness, absolute privacy and publicness. The critique is presented through a study of the networks that link two families, two locations, two time frames, two construction technologies, and two acts of family violence. This title is a comparison of two residences and families, detailing the similarities and alterity of the two in relation to each other and architecture as a whole, centreed on Freudian logic.

Good products do not appear from nowhere. In the beginning, there is always an idea, which turns into the final product after a long development process and countless prototypes. But where do these ideas come from and how do designers get their motivation? Using a total of 21 examples, all of which received a distinction in the Red Dot Award: Product Design, the book explains where the inspiration for the concepts derives from and which human needs are fulfilled by the products. The works are divided into three groups: iconic models, material and basic needs & social responsibility.

Tom Purvis Art for the Sake of Money Ruth Artmonsky and David Preston The first comprehensive book on the life and work of Tom Purvis, one of the most successful British commercial artists of the inter-war years, remembered for his iconic work for Austin Reed and his iconic posters for LNER, and for his ‘signature style’ of block colour minimalism. Tom Purvis was a commercial artist through and through and was proud of it - ‘I got fun out of the money as well as out of the work’. After a period at Camberwell School of Art and some time in Paris, Purvis claimed to have had his really useful education working for the advertising agency Mather & Crowther. His career was interrupted when he served in the Artists’ Rifles in WWI but thereafter he was self-employed, starting work in the 1920s for his two main clients - Austin Reed’s and LNER. He became one of LNER’s ‘elite’ artists and produced some 100 railway posters, the most iconic being ‘East Coast Joys’. During the inter-war years he provided both posters and press advertisements for some sixty clients. His ‘flat method’ of colour block minimalism became his distinguishable ‘signature style’.

In 1936 he was elected by the Royal Society of Arts to be one of their first Royal Designers of Industry, the first commercial artist to have his work so acknowledged. He became one of the most celebrated and successful commercial artists of the period and thoroughly enjoyed the lifestyle this brought him - Lancia car, Savage Club membership, and so on. He never saw himself as an artist but considered himself a Master Craftsman, capable not only of producing a good poster, but print it, and, if paid sufficiently well, mount it on a street hoarding!

When the discovery of this prototype of the VW 38 was posted on an internet forum, the international Beetle scene went wild. For the experienced VW restorers Traugott and Christian Grundmann there was no question: the first “Splitty” would become the centrepiece of their exquisite old-timer collection. The VW 38’s condition may have been shocking, but it was not beyond hope. Supported by a brilliant team of welders, upholsterers, painters, mechanics and VW enthusiasts from around the world, they managed to give the dear little Beetle a complete makeover.

With all the skills of a brilliant photographer, René Staud portrays all variants of this Porsche classic with 4-cylinder rear-engine and rearwheel drive. As a dedicated collector, he presents all his photographic 356-icons - his complete studio fund. Moreover, photos taken by other owners of the 356 are shown as well. This comprehensive illustrated book about the Porsche 356 also deals with the story of photographer and visionary, René Staud. His special use of the flashlight, the Magicflash, gives the bodyworks an exceptional look, the cars become sculptures. An excellent book for any automobile fanatic.
When the Porsche 912 was introduced in the spring of 1965, some members of the staff were not quite happy with the new model, for it still had the four-cylinder engine of the 356 that was no longer in production, while the 911 already had the new six-cylinder, and had become a legend. However, the 911 was so expensive that many Porsche devotees in Germany could not afford to buy it. For this reason, Porsche quickly needed a new, less expensive model so the 912 came into being, and from 1966 to 1969 about 32,000 vehicles were built. Apart from the Porsche 912 Coupé (1965 to 1969) this book also presents the Porsche 912 Targa (1966 to 1969). Less wellknown, but all the more intriguing, is the story of the Porsche 912E, built in 1976 just for the US market, and of which only 2099 specimens exist. Goodwood is a small, very special piece of land in the British county of West Sussex, where fans of old bodyworks and vintage style lovers come together every year for the most spectacular events. Highlights definitely include the Festival of Speed, which is world-famous for its sensational shows of historic racing cars, and the Revival Meeting. Goodwood shows portraits of all three vintage car events with racing driver legends, as well as the history and characteristics of Goodwood, the race track and the surroundings.
In this book, Stefan Bogner returns to the Alps again with this illustrated book. This time not only did he photograph particular routes, but he looked for the ideal tour through the Alps: 3 countries, 14 passes - the perfect little escape for 4 days. Porsche Drive focuses on the journey in Porsche models such as Porsche 906, Porsche 911, Porsche 918 and more. Stefan Bogner drives his own Porsche 911 1970 ST. Apart from Bogner’s photographs, Porsche Drive offers information on each route and height profile. Thus you can follow Bogner’s itinerary on a long weekend.

A Maserati A6G 2000 Gran Sport. A Facel Vega Excellence. A Hispano-Suiza H6B. A Bugatti 57 Ventoux. Alain Delon’s Ferrari 250 GT SWB California Spider. Several Talbot-Lago, Delahaye and Voisin - the list of classic automobiles, forgotten for decades on an estate in Échiré in south-western France, is almost amazing. Before the cars were auctioned in early 2015, photographer Rémi Dargegen took pictures of the incredible “Baillon Collection”. When the photo sessions at Château Gaillard started, Rémi Dargegen had not expected to find such a huge treasure trove of classic automobiles: “Unbelievable, just unbelievable. This place is unique. What is most impressive, is the sheer number of cars that were stored in the barns.” That enthusiasm is reflected in his photographs. This book, somewhat like the model of car it showcases, is beautifully designed. It features high-quality photography, arranged in extensive galleries, followed by important model information - the “Superb” dossier and a complete history of the Skoda brand and its roots, celebrating a legacy of 120 years. Exceptional, superior, just superb: the new Skoda Superb at close range.
Amidst the Scottish Highlands stands a dilapidated 30-year-old Land Rover. It doesn’t seem to be the ideal vehicle for a world trip, but Christopher Many believes otherwise. He dreams of embarking on a tour of Siberia, North and South America, and across the continent of Africa - equipped with little more than a passport, credit card and a tank of petrol. The 200,000 kilometre long journey takes eight years, and propels Christopher not only into a myriad of adventures, but confronts him with a reality at odds with conventional Western views. He returns, snake-bitten and malaria-infected, but also with the love of his life. Equal parts sophisticated lexicon on global affairs and darkly witty travel chronicle, Left Beyond the Horizon presents a vivid picture of the agonies and joys of world travel.
Sabbatical at Sea is a unique book; it tells the story of a family that gave up their every-day life to set sail. While it will encourage the reader to seek out new experiences, it does so without glossing over the difficulties that will be faced, and the courage needed to embark upon such a massive life-style change. In addition to the family’s story, the book also includes useful sailing tips to ensure that anyone following in the family’s footsteps will be prepared.

Despite its trademark transparency, the Corum Golden Bridge is a wristwatch full of mystery. This new book describes the iconic linear timepiece’s fascinating history including the innovative mechanical invention conceived by a nonconformist autodidact and the difficult technical breakthroughs by two like-minded personalities needed to achieve the dream wristwatch. The Golden Bridge, spanning the gap between mechanics and art, is an integral part of this era as luxury watchmaking teetered on the brink of extinction. The Golden Bridge additionally helped usher in the era of the independent watchmaker, as its very creation was rooted in shedding light on the work of the watchmaker in a way that no other timepiece before or after it ever would. Horology, A Child of Astronomy lifts the veil on the mysteries of astronomy and considers its relation to the measurement of time. It follows the study of the movements of the Sun, Earth, Moon and the Universe to guide the reader towards a closer understanding of the astronomical complications of today’s timepieces. Reproductions of ancient documents alongside photographs of timekeeping instruments such as sundials, clocks, pocket watches and wristwatches with astronomical functions illustrate the text, which also includes explanations of the Nebra sky disc, the Antikythera mechanism, and the Prague astronomical clock. A comprehensive glossary provides terms of interest to anyone curious about astronomical timekeeping.
Initially designed for automobile racing teams and engineers, the Omega Speedmaster embarked on a very different trajectory when NASA chose it to accompany astronauts heading for the moon in 1965. Its involvement in the space adventure has propelled the Moonwatch to the top of the list of celebrated timepieces. After years of research and observation, the authors present a complete panorama of the Moonwatch in a systematic work that is both technical and attractive, making it the essential reference book for this legendary watch. “It is an indescribable reference work and a true must-have for every Speedmaster collector.” Forbes

How can you tell a fake watch from a real one? Where are fakes made? What grades of quality can one find among so-called “replicas”? How can one buy a watch on the internet? These are just some of the questions to which any wristwatch enthusiast needs to find answers in an era when counterfeiting luxury products has become an industry in its own right. This book, of which the greater part is devoted to the most prestigious watch brands, provides readers with vital information on identifying fakes. It aims to ensure that buying a watch from a private individual, from a professional or on the internet (the global hub for the sale of fake watches) does not turn out to be a nightmare! Illustrated with over 500 photos, the differences between original and counterfeit models are exposed in detail (mechanisms, dials, bracelets, etc.).

This book traces the history of an encounter between a remarkable invention and one of the most famous architects of the 20th century. Created in 1921, the Gras lamp holds a unique place in the history of lighting. A revolutionary design of marvellous simplicity, its original purpose was to meet the needs of the booming manufacturing and retail sectors. The young Le Corbusier, passionate about the challenges of interior lighting, adopted it as his own from the early 1920s on. Thanks to its remarkable functionality, this lamp also perfectly corresponded to his desire to break with decoration and ornament, and the architect went on to utilise it in his studio in the rue de Sèvres in Paris as well as his home. Relying on rich photographic documentation from the period, the book goes through the history of the Gras lamp, its patents and models, and enables the reader to rediscover Le Corbusier’s interior designs through the prism of this icon of design, as he was one of this lamp’s main promoters in modern times. Written as a type of intimate journal combining childhood memories with those of a young apprentice and all the experiences gained and born of encounters, firstly with the great names in jewellery and subsequently in watchmaking, this book is above all a testimony to the birth of a passion placed at the service of the brand. François Bodet makes plain, through his own story, the profound significance of time in the evolution of knowledge. This is all the more worth highlighting today, when our society is confronted with the constraints of standardisation, computerisation and dehumanisation which result in the “quickly done” taking precedence over the “well done”. It is appropriate to remember that success may only be achieved by following the various stages of a process that must allow time to take its course.
The histories of Blancpain’s iconic Fifty Fathoms, the world’s first modern diving watch, and diving itself have been intertwined ever since 1953. It is, thus, fitting that Blancpain has brought these two stories together in a richly illustrated collectable volume entitled Fifty Fathoms: The Dive and Watch History 1953-2013. Blancpain’s editors enlisted experts from both fields to chronicle the twin evolutions and milestones of underwater time keeping and exploration. This new volume for the first time charts the milestones in the 60 year history of Blancpain’s Fifty Fathoms. From its birth in 1953, the Fifty Fathoms provided a formula so well conceived that it has defined the entire genre ever since. The book’s chapters recount the stories of 24 of the most important adventurers who pioneered exploration of the world’s oceans such as Hans Haas, Jacques-Yves Cousteau, and Stan Waterman. This never before assembled resource of horology and diving also includes a time line charting these two histories as well as an encyclopaedia of terms.

Jewellery and object artist Anton Cepka (1936) is one of the most important jewellery artists of the twentieth century and a protagonist of the socalled studio jewellery movement, which arose after the Second World War. Today he is considered the doyen of Slovakian and Czech jewellery designers. Whitened silver, optical glass, stones and modern acrylic glass are Anton Cepka’s preferred materials. This retrospective brings his kinetic jewellery to a wider audience for the very first time - around 400 pieces from 1963 to 2005 are presented.
The work of the Estonian jewellery artist Tanel Veenre comes alive in its fullest extent in this book. Between dramatic objects and mellowsensual jewellery unfold thoughts, ideas and questions, which are framed by sequences of pictures showing the sources of his inspiration: photographs of Nordic landscapes, of best friends, of church vaults, erotic forms and the workshop in which the fantastical and poetic pieces are created by his very hand. With this ‘artist’s diary’, Tanel Veenre gives an insight into his world - intimate and sincere thoughts on the ideas and concepts behind his creativity. As a rather abstract thinker, these concentrate less on the detail than the big picture behind it: Why and how is man able to create art? Where does the beginning, where does the end of art lie? Ever since the 1970s the Austrian couple Heidi and Karl Bollmann have been assembling a highly respected collection of international art jewellery. In this survey exciting artistic approaches as well as trends and developments of the genre are brought together with the aid of selected works. The illustrations of the objects are complemented by a series of portraits. Each piece is accompanied by a definition as to what jewellery is or could be, thereby stimulating thought about the meaning of art jewellery for the individual as well as for society as a whole. A particular focus lies in the work of the Austrian Fritz Maierhofer, one of the most significant jewellery artists in the world. Since first published in 1991 Pocket Jackson’s, as it is most often called, has enjoyed enormous success and is constantly rated as a best seller in the Arts & Antiques category. During the last twenty-three years important developments have taken place in the Hallmarking system. Most notably the introduction within Europe of a universally accepted system of marking has lead not only to the addition of new marks, but also to a change of status of several historic marks. This edition brings up to the present day all the date letters and commemorative marks. It also includes the recently introduced marks for Palladium and a section illustrating the Assay Office identification marks of those countries that are signatories to the International Convention marking system. In addition and of importance are the changes made in the early cycles of Dublin date letters which result from recent research by silver scholars in Ireland.

From Empress Farah and the secrets of the treasure of Iran, to Queen Marie Amélie’s missing emeralds, via Fantômas and the blood-red rubies of the kings of Burma, entering the world of Van Cleef & Arpels is like embarking upon a fascinating treasure hunt. In this book, Vincent Meylan explores a century in the history of one of the most prestigious Parisian jewellery dynasties. He opens doors and unlocks caskets to reveal the mysterious, and sometimes fantastic, stories of its clients and the fabulous and exceptional stones that they entrusted to the “golden hands” of Van Cleef & Arpels. Throughout the 20th century, jewellery revealed the behind-the-scenes stories and the plot twists and turns in the real lives of celebrities that will always be larger than life. Some of the world’s most fabulous jewels not only illustrated power and status in society but these magical gems held tremendous sentimental value as they were linked to the most significant moments and memories of Hollywood royalty, international aristocracy and international icons of style. If These Jewels Could Talk offers a glimpse into the jewellery boxes of these celebrities - the personal tastes, heartfelt anecdotes and the true tales of the women who wore and collected the pieces. Fabergé eggs are the embodiment of masterly goldsmithing and luxury gifts. Produced by Peter Carl Fabergé between 1885 and 1916 for the Russian tsar family and other buyers, they still fascinate to this day through their craftsmanly precision, their valuable materials and their history. From 1990 to 2009 the Fabergé tradition was continued by the Pforzheim jewellery manufacturer Victor Mayer. This book provides a richly illustrated catalogue of all the Fabergé egg objects produced in the Victor Mayer manufactory.
This book offers an unprecedented look at cigarette holders through a selection of approximately 125 pieces from the collection of Carolyn Hsu-Balcer and Rene Balcer. Its introductory essay is both a social history of tobacco and a design history of its accoutrements. It examines the history of smoking from its pre-Columbian roots in the Americas through to the present-day worldwide e-cigarette craze, taking the reader on a journey from tobacco smoking as a sacred ritual, through the controversies of its worldwide spread, and the machine-rolled cigarette’s role in the world wars and as a tool for European and American women’s equality. This is a complete monograph of the ceramicist, glass maker, and furniture designer Olivier Gagnère. With his artful mastery of every material, he is just as at ease working with porcelain as with iron, crystal, wood, leather or bronze. He blends simple and timeless forms with carefully sized volumes, in a range of bright contrasting colours. Steeped in the most classical traditions, he marks every one of his creations with a gesture, a demeanor that is a signature of his times.

Since 1970 a collection of Panini stickers has accompanied each FIFA World Cup, held every four years. The book tells the story of the World Cup through the faces of its stars. Three thousand champions spanning the last forty years, all of whom have shared a desire to give their very best and bring soccer glory to their own nations. For fans of statistics and trivia, the albums (always brought out before matches are played) have been rounded off with charts and tables of the results of that year.
The Willett Collection is unique. It is the only collection formed to illustrate what 19th century businessman Henry Willett called ‘popular British history’. The collection of nearly 2,000 items is arranged here in chapters corresponding to Willett’s own cataloguing system. Stella Beddoe’s engaging, informative text places each item in context, exploring the maker and the subject matter depicted. The items, depicted in more than 700 colour illustrations, comprise hollow ware and flat ware, ornamental busts and figures, dating from the late 16th to the late 19th centuries. They represent a complete range of ceramic bodies and manufacturing technology. The skilful works of Yasuhisa Kohyama are inspired by ancient Japanese Shigaraki, Jomon and Yayoi ceramics. Using special Shigaraki clay and the fire of an anagama wood kiln, in the fusion of traditional technique and a modern language of form he creates vessels and sculptures that are not only powerful and innovative but also timelessly beautiful. Characteristic for Kohyama’s asymmetric objects is their rough surface - a haptic quality rarely found in contemporary ceramics - as well as an exciting interplay of colour, which is created without glaze and solely by the movement of the ash and the position of the object within the kiln. Without adornment or applications, plates, bowls, jugs and pots radiate through honey-yellow, green or dark brown glazes. Everyday objects that obtain artistic merit through reduction alone boast an extraordinary assuredness in their design. That good everyday ceramic occupies a justified and valued place alongside artistic ceramic is advocated with conviction by Lotte Reimers. As a longstanding companion and associate of the ceramic exponent Jakob Wilhelm Hinders, she discovered her passion for the beauty in simple things. Ever since then she has promoted the preservation of unpretentious everyday crockery as an important cultural artefact for the future. Horst Kerstan (1941-2005) made a crucial impact on post-1945 German ceramics. The artist began his career with an apprenticeship in the workshop of the former ceramic master Richard Bampi. Through his involvement with Hans Arp, Kerstan created incommutable forms of fruit and waves, testaments to a distinct language of forms. Chinese ceramics inspired him to reach the highest level of perfection in form and glaze, while Japanese ceramics taught him to let go and allowed him to find a high degree of expressive spontaneity. With this publication Maria Schüly has systematically presented the complete creative work of this artist in its enormous diversity.

A mystifying group of carpets and tapestries created along the Silk Route over five hundred years ago is the topic of this richly illustrated book. The carpets and tapestries with riveting yet puzzling designs have been preserved in closed treasure houses in the former Japanese capital since the fourteenth to fifteenth centuries. They are brought out only one day a year for a ShintoBuddhist festival procession and quickly returned to storage. This book is about their shrouded origin in China, the pariahs who wove them, the meaning of their obscure motifs, and the reasons for the secrecy continuing to surround their exhibition.
India has been at the heart of the global trade in textiles since ancient times, and cotton has been at the heart of the Subcontinent’s economy for millennia. Indian dyed and painted cottons were admired in and traded to the Far East and the Mediterranean world for many generations before European interest in chintz created a new market. The trade in Indian cloth flourished due to the ability of its craftsmen to create a multitude of detailed and expressive patterns with strong and fast colours. Such textiles gained high esteem among the elite at home and abroad, ultimately acquiring heirloom status. The Indian dyed and painted cotton cloths in the Thakar Collection are perhaps the best in private hands. Many have never previously been published. Dating from the 15th century onwards, the collection illustrates the trade in textiles across the Indian Ocean with the MalayIndonesian world, with Sri Lanka, Armenia and Europe, as well as within the Indian domestic market. Meisen silk was produced in Japan from the late nineteenth century and became particularly popular between 1910 and 1940. Meisen was an innovative, quick and cost-effective dye and weaving method with the effect of labourintensive and multicoloured traditional kasuri ikat fabric. The meisen kimonos that were produced en masse were the first affordable ready-to-wear kimonos. Designed by a young generation of Japanese textile designers who synthesised classic Japanese design with the influence of Western design movements, the patterns still look fresh and original today and represent a little-known study in textile design of the early twentieth century. As eminent fashion garments, meisen kimonos would be replaced with the next new fashion after just a season or two. Thus many of them were stored in excellent condition and were even passed down as heirlooms. In recent years they have resurfaced and are now enjoying the high esteem bestowed on them by collectors.

Jacqueline Groag was probably the most influential textile designer in Britain in the post Second World War era. Although originally Czech, she studied textile and pattern design in Austria in the 1920s. Her work and influence did not just extend to the large corporations and exclusive couturiers but was familiar to the general public through stores and companies such as John Lewis, Liberty of London, David Whitehead, Edinburgh Weavers, Sandersons, Warerite and Formica. Her remarkable achievement finally received public recognition in 1984 when, at the age of 81, she was made an R.D.I. - a Royal Designer for Industry - the ultimate accolade for any designer in Britain.
Everything But Clothes features all the big (Dutch) fashion photographers since the nineties. The book focuses on the importance of (fashion) magazines such as Avenue, Re magazine, Glamcult, BLVD and Fantastic Man and how their innovative concepts and experimental forms have established an international reputation. The book places extra attention on the rise of digital magazines, fashion blogs and vlogs and their influence on fashion photography. The specific themes and trends of each decade are discussed as well. In the eighties and nineties identity and eroticism were the keywords whereas from the year 2000 drama and personal stories artificial versus natural - become a more important theme.

Royal Shoemakers Rayne was founded by Henry & Mary Rayne in London in 1885, and were the pre-eminent British ladies’ luxury shoe brand throughout the 20th-century. Re-launched as a British-owned company in 2013, the remarkable design achievements of the company in the 20th-century are illustrated in this sumptuous book. The business began in the late 19th-century as a theatrical costumier and soon added shoes to its products. By the 1920s, members of the British Royal family and aristocracy were clients. By 1950, the company had three royal warrants, had supplied shoes for the wedding of Princess Elizabeth (now Queen Elizabeth II) in 1947, and had a strong American presence with Delman Shoes at Bergdorf Goodman, NYC, amongst other locations. Beautifully illustrated, this book offers a complete history of this remarkable brand.

Jules George, war artist, travelled to Helmand, Afghanistan, in 2010, in the wake of its bloodiest year for British troops. War Artists in Afghanistan reproduces the remarkable sketches, watercolours and oil paintings born of his experiences with the 2nd Yorkshires (Green Howards). The book also features the work of four other war artists: Douglas Farthing, a former sergeant in the British paratroopers; and Michael Fay, soldier-turned-combat artist for the United States Marine Corps; Arabella Dorman, internationally recognised portrait painter and war artist; and Matthew Coo, trained illustrator, former Times war artist and Territorial Army solider. Each artist’s work is accompanied by their own, first-hand account of war in Afghanistan. Extraordinary in scale, infinitesimal in detail, and sumptuous in colour, the paintings of master watercolourist Joseph Raffael plumb the depths of nature’s beauty. Eighty-eight works of deep reflection, awe, and joy selected for this volume were created in his home and garden in Cap D’Antibes, France, overlooking the sparkling Mediterranean Sea. Lanie Goodman visits Raffael at work in his light-filled studio, which she describes in her biographical profile of the artist as his haven and heaven. With tables of brushes and glass dishes of paint, the carefully cultivated garden by his wife Lannis, and the blue sea beyond, Raffael joins the long legacy of artists - Bonnard, Renoir, Matisse, Leger among them nourished by this life and vista.
Street art is more than artistically acknowledged graffiti. This book highlights this new art form in all its facets, beyond the cliches. From installation art to socially critical tags to photo realistic mural paintings: street art exists in all forms and sizes. Street Art Today maps the genre and investigates new tendencies such as ecological street art, the naive wave, trompe l’oeil… The core of the book is a Who’s Who of the international street art scene, a list of the 50 most influential street artists, from Banksy to Pixel Pancho. Including 10 revealing and surprising interviews.
Explore Andy Warhol’s surprising, lifelong engagement with nature as subject matter for his artistic practice. While he was well known for his responsiveness to popular culture and advertising, Warhol simultaneously engaged with the natural world through his work, depicting landscapes, flora, and fauna in innovative and surprising ways. Accompanying the exhibition Warhol’s Nature, organised by Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and featuring works drawn primarily from the collections of the Andy Warhol Museum, this fully illustrated book covers every decade of the Pop icon’s long career. Gain fresh perspective on artworks like Warhol’s Self-Portrait in his infamous fright wig overlaid with camouflage, the iconic Flowers series of the 1960s, rarely seen photographs, and more. Essays by Warhol scholars and experts offer further insight into this under-studied yet vitally important strain of the artist’s career.

In 1964, inspired by both art history and by imagery found on printed postcards, Lichtenstein began to explore the genre of seascape, using both paint, plastic, enamel, drawings, collage, print and even film to realise his various works. Guild Hall will host an extraordinary gathering of these works beginning with his Pop-inspired explorations of setting suns along with a recreation of his since destroyed Super Sunset billboard commission (1967). Other works in the show will include his experimental optical collages and films from the mid to late 1960s to his gently calibrated brushstroke water views in paintings and prints of the 1980s culminating with his 1990s water lily series in homage to the Nymphéas of Claude Monet.
Ilya Repin (1844-1930) is a key figure of Russian nineteenth-century realism; his career spanned a period of huge cultural, social and political change, bearing witness to the challenge to the Russian autocracy, the coming of the October Revolution and the dawn of the Soviet Union. The Russian Vision: The Art of Ilya Repin presents the life and work of the most celebrated Russian painter of his generation. A comprehensive survey of Repin’s oeuvre, featuring a wealth of little-seen paintings; dramatic, distinctive images that evoke the hardships, pleasures and everyday routines of Russian society in the twilight years of Tsarist rule. Having declined in the twentieth century, Repin’s reputation is growing again.
Born into a family of tradespeople in a small city in France, Henri Rousseau became a customs and excise officer in the customs house in Paris in 1871, a job that earned him the nickname ‘the customs officer’. Rousseau was an enthusiastic selftaught artist. Nourished by themes in the popular imagination, Rousseau’s painting expresses a vision of reality, populated by iconic figures outlined with hieratic force against flat blocks of saturated colour and fantastic spaces - a vision long branded as naive, ingenuous and uncultivated. This book demonstrates how fully Rousseau il Douanier’s masterpieces are part of this archaic trend, and of the world of art in general, from his dream-like exotic landscapes to his still-lifes. They are shown alongside works signed by the likes of Picasso, Gaugain, Frida Kahlo, and Carlo Carrà. An aura of mystery has surrounded Tamara de Lempicka since she was born, not in Warsaw in 1902, as she claimed, but according to official records in 1898 in Moscow. The beautiful and scandalous Tamara was the extravagant muse of Art Deco, an icon of the roaring twenties, and a successful painter of intensely sensual portraits with sophisticated decorative elements. Cool colours, cramped spaces and stark contrasts between light and shade surround the unforgettable faces of rich, elegant, emancipated, and theatrical women fixed in their existential melancholy. The catalogue includes a careful selection of unforgettable paintings and valuable historic photographs offering us a fascinating thematic reconstruction of the personal and professional aspects of Tamara’s life, including the places she lived, her involvement in the sophisticated fashion world of the period, and her studies of the nude, as well as her still-lifes and portraits.

This is the only western study of the renowned Russian landscape painter, Isaak Levitan (18601900). This third, expanded edition is further enhanced by new images and extra chapters about his portraits, still lifes and cityscapes; it also discusses his working methods and assesses the influence of his output on later artists. Levitan’s paintings commemorate the arrival of the Russian spring and celebrate the quiet beauty of her lakes and rivers, fields and forests, often pictured at twilight. Towards the end of his life he was responsible for revitalising the teaching of landscape painting in Moscow and exhibited regularly with the Munich Secession.
With this publication a comprehensive study of Impressionism in Canada is available for the first time: from its beginnings in France, via the dissemination of the new style through artists, gallerists, dealers and collectors in North America, and its incorporation into and propagation within a hitherto conservative milieu, to the reception of Canadian Impressionism both nationally and internationally. In this overview not only are the sources of inspiration in French Impressionism presented but also how masterfully and with aplomb these artists found their own artistic form of expression, which has decisively shaped Canadian Impressionist painting today.
Late in his life, confined to a chair or bed, Matisse transformed a simple technique into a medium for the creation of a major art. Cutting dynamic shapes from painted paper, Matisse created his images. While producing pieces for Jazz, the artist used a large brush to write notes to himself on construction paper. The simple visual appearance of the words pleased Matisse, and he suggested using his reflective handwritten thoughts in juxtaposition with the images. The original first edition of Jazz was an artist’s book, printed in a limited quantity. This selection from the original is an exquisite suite of colour plates and text that was invented in a spirit of improvisation and spontaneity. These magnificent cut-outs of pure colour celebrate the radiance and emotional intensity of the artist’s oeuvre. Whether it’s the Ringling Brothers or Cirque du Soleil, the circus is a universal tradition, bringing people together in the name of amusement and festivity. The same is true for bullfight, a tradition celebrated through history in virtually every Spanish speaking nation in the world. In these rich assemblages luxuriously presented in a luscious lucite slipcase with the artist’s renowned signature silkscreened on the outside of the box, the reader will find an assemblage of the artist’s work on the only two theme topics that offer enough variety and expanse to be able to be offered as the subject of an individual book and have never before been published (each book) as a complete collection on the subject.

Featuring over a hundred drawings from the outstanding collections of graphic art at the Uffizi, Florence, and the Ashmolean, and Christ Church, Oxford, Drawing in Venice is based on ground-breaking new research and accompanies an Ashmolean-Uffizi collaborative exhibition (2015-16) which traces continuities in Venetian drawing over three centuries, from around 1500 down to the foundation of the first academy of art in Venice in 1750. Venetian art has long been associated with brilliant colours and free brushwork, but drawing has been written out of its history. This book highlights the significance of drawing as a concept and as a practice in the artistic life of Venice. It reveals the variety of aims, purposes, and techniques in drawing through the works of the Venetian Renaissance masters Giovanni Bellini, Titian, and Tintoretto to those of the great eighteenth-century artists, Giovanni Battista Tiepolo and Canaletto.
The Ashmolean Museum’s collection of British drawings and watercolours is undoubtedly one of the richest in the world. Over 130 works are discussed here in this fully illustrated catalogue, including a dozen works loaned from private collections. Many of these works have never previously been published or exhibited. The full richness of the Ashmolean’s collection is reflected here with drawings from the mid-17th century through to the present day. Works by renowned masters including Gainsborough, Blake, Palmer, J. M. W. Turner, Edward Lear, Ruskin, and the Pre-Raphaelites feature, together with works from the 20th century including Augustus John, Paul Nash, Walter Sickert and the Camden Town Group, Eric Ravilious, Ben Nicholson, Graham Sutherland, Wyndham Lewis, Ronald Searle, Gerald Scarfe, and David Hockney. Great British Drawings reveals the full breadth of achievement and inventiveness of British artists in all drawing media, from pencil, to pen and ink, to watercolour, as well as the fascinating history of British art over the course of three and a half centuries. The Bernard and Mary Berenson Collection of European Paintings at I Tatti surveys the 149 works assembled by the Berensons for their home in Florence from the late 1890s through the first decades of the twentieth century at the time that they were making their mark on the world as connoisseurs. The catalogue presents a privileged window on the Berensons’ intellectual interests through the objects they owned. The entries, written by an international team of art historians, take full advantage of the extensive correspondence from the Berensons’ friends, family, and colleagues at I Tatti as well as the couple’s diaries and notations on the backs of their vast gathering of photographs. All the entries are lavishly illustrated with full scholarly and technical accountings of the objects. There are also 17 illustrated reconstructions of the original contexts of panel paintings. The catalogue includes essays on the progress of the Berensons’ collecting, their love for Siena, the Sienese forger Icilio Federico Joni, the critic Roger Fry, and René Piot’s murals at I Tatti, as well as a listing of 94 pictures that were once at I Tatti including donations made to museums in Europe and America.

The Rembrandt House Museum in Amsterdam was Rembrandt’s home from 1639 to 1658. Here, the artist lived with his family and welcomed his friends. In this house, Rembrandt created his famous paintings and brilliant etchings, taught his pupils, and cherished his art collection. The museum owns a magnificent collection of prints and contains the reconstruction of Rembrandt’s home and studio. This book will help you to get to know Rembrandt as an artist, as a husband, a teacher, a collector, and the inspiration of artists of throughout the ages. This book contains some of the most beautiful Bible stories, retold from a unique point of view. Famous Dutch children’s authors have let their imaginations run free to give a voice to some of the eyewitnesses depicted in Rembrandt’s etchings. Rembrandt was a unique storyteller. His etchings of biblical stories give the impression that he was right there, drawing on the spot. Rembrandt’s Bible Stories tells these stories, of ordinary people - and animals - caught up in extraordinary events. Stories about the essence of compassion, comfort, forgiveness, sorrow and charity. Many compositional sketches show Rembrandt’s distinctive method for training pupils. His instructions drew aspiring young painters, such as Nicolaes Maes, Willem Drost, Abraham van Dijck and Jacobus Leveck. They came for the second phase of their training, to become independent masters. They saw Rembrandt as a comprehensive teacher, and not only imitated his virtuoso brush work, but also followed his instruction in a wide range of subject matter, from historical narrative to landscape.
The National Galleries of Scotland is widely regarded as one of the finest small galleries in the world. Its collection includes many of the greatest names in Western art, encompassing artists as diverse as Titian, Francis Bacon, Pablo Picasso. This lavishly illustrated book contains the National Galleries of Scotland’s greatest and best-loved treasures, each accompanied by an informative text. Not only does this book provide a fascinating introduction to the national collection but it is also an accessible and informative introduction to the history of art.

On his death, he bequeathed his New York residence and remarkable collection of western paintings, sculpture and decorative arts to the public. The collection includes masterpieces by renowned artists such as Bellini, Constable, Fragonard, Goya, El Greco, Ingres, Rembrandt, Vermeer and Whistler, as well as superb examples of French 18th-century furniture, Italian Renaissance bronzes and Limoges enamels. Since its opening in 1936 as the USA’s first art museum chartered by a state, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts has grown into a world-class cultural institution, with a permanent collection that encompasses more than 33,000 works spanning 5,000 years of world history. This beautifully illustrated book provides a glimpse into some of the museum’s most treasured artworks, as well as a brief history of its buildings and grounds.

The Amazing World of M.C. Escher Micky Piller, Patrick Elliott, Frans Peterse
Arthur Melville was arguably the most innovative and modernist Scottish artist of his generation and one of the finest British watercolourists of the nineteenth century, yet he avoided categorisation. This book offers a comprehensive survey of Arthur Melville’s (1855-1904) rich and varied career as artist-adventurer, Orientalist, forerunner of The Glasgow Boys, painter of modern life and re-interpreter of the landscape of Scotland. His travels inspired spectacular watercolours and paintings. This book illustrates around sixty of his works, each with a catalogue entry, and an essay by Kenneth McConkey, which discusses Melville’s art and career.
This book offers the opportunity to rediscover M.C. Escher (1898-1972), a giant of 20thcentury art. A fabulously imaginative artist of unparalleled technical ability, he focused exclusively on graphic art, creating some of the most famous and popular images in modern art.

Sorolla: The Hispanic Society
Since the Foundation of The Hispanic Society of America in 1904 by Archer M. Huntington (1870-1955), there has never been an artist so closely related to his famous art collection as Joaquín Sorolla y Bastida (1863-1923). Huntington had found in Sorolla an artist that shared the same love for Spain; that is why he began organising the exhibition that would take place a year later. They worked together day and night to prepare the exhibition that would open up on February 4th, 1909. The exhibition was a great success and Huntington was granted the opportunity to obtain some of the most significant works of Sorolla. In this book, published for the first time, is the complete collection of the works from Sorolla at the Hispanic Society.

Edvard Munch is Norway’s most important painter and graphic artist and the only one to exercise a decisive influence on European art. A forerunner of Expressionism, his works were influenced by an early life tortured by sickness, insanity, rejection and guilt and he worked through his neuroses in his paintings. Munch created a life’s work which would not only enable the deepest problems of the century to live on into our time, but also says something about human existence, which couldn’t be put into words. This beautifully produced survey of the painter is a rich exploration of his life, his paintings and his graphic works. Both famous and lesser-known paintings are analysed and put into context as well as the extraordinary woodcuts, which so cleverly exploit the grain of the wood and are some of the most accomplished and confident things he did.

The richly-illustrated publication presents 100 of the finest active corporate collections from all over the world, from different industries and with different artistic focal points. The ambitious project is supported by AXA ART insurance, Art Finance (Gazprombank Group) and Sotheby’s. The book is edited by Friedrich Conzen (Managing Director, Werkladen Conzen Kunst Service, Dusseldorf ), Max Hollein (Director, Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt/Main) and Olaf Salié (Managing Director, Deutsche Standards, Cologne). Chief copy-editor is Gérard A. Goodrow (Freelance author and curator, former Director Art Cologne). The profession of exhibition making and curatorial practices has over the course of the last twenty years undergone a seminal change, something which in turn has challenged the notion of what an exhibition can be, not least in terms of communication and design. Large scale group exhibitions, like documenta in Kassel, seem to have involved discussions on exhibition making and curatorial models at the heart of their organisational body. Another common aspect of these large-scale events is that they employ new venues for showing and presenting works, be it museums that normally don’t show contemporary art or craft, abandoned factories or various public spaces. The upsurge in publishing in the 16th century turned the Reformation into a media event, and printed products of every kind superseded the communication methods used thus far. One of the largest collections of illustrated single-sheet prints in the Palace Museum of the Stiftung Schloss Friedenstein in Gotha provides a rich treasure trove of prints that informed the Reformation. The Gotha inventory of around 700 flyers from 1480 to 1599 is today considered unprecedented. Now for the first time it has been published in its entirety.
Unnoticed by the international art world until recently, the Karakalpakstan State Museum of Art located in Nukus, Uzbekistan - houses the second largest collection of Russian avant-garde art in the world (after the Russian Museum in St. Petersburg). This extraordinary museum is the life’s work of Igor Vitalievich Savitsky, a Russian painter born in Kiev. Subsequently, having moved from Moscow to Nukus, Savitsky began collecting the works of the Russian avant-garde. This English-language publication, already issued in Russian in 2011, helps make the Savitsky Collection accessible to a broad international audience for the first time. For many, the name Richard Segalman conjures up a vision of light-infused paintings of women gathered on a beach, gazing out the window of a New York City brownstone, or dressed in costumes from another era. In 1993, at nearly 60, Segalman surprised the public with this exceptional collection of monotypes. The significance of Segalman’s shift into this medium is most powerfully conveyed through his arresting black-and-white prints that range from anonymous crowds on Coney Island beaches or New York City streets to a solitary figure in private contemplation.

The hand of the artist is much estimated as the means by which the expression of Art finds a voice. To make Art without human touch sets art beyond expression. Artists have found ways to subvert the means of production. Some three years ago, Adam Lowe and Anish Kapoor wondered if it were possible to make a machine that could generate form. The printing machine formed a model for the basis of their thinking. After much trial and error, they found a surprisingly simple way of making a workable engine. Once they had started making objects, a new reality began to emerge. These were objects like no others; they seemed to obscure the border between artifice and event. These are objects that are more akin to natural things than to those made by design.
A profound study of Roni Horn’s most representative works, such as her series of works inspired on her journeys to Iceland where she places a crucial emphasis on nature and landscape, isolation and solitude. Literature and the word are essential presences in her works, which enter into dialogue with Emily Dickinson’s poetry and texts by Clarice Lispector. Includes a long conversation with Julie Ault, artist, writer and one of the co-founders of Group Material. Their discussion constitutes an essential text for understanding Roni Horn’s creative processes, references and influences.
A comprehensive and fully illustrated survey from the artist’s early works to the present, highlighting the artist’s concepts and diverse media, which questions the limits of the artwork itself and deals with the loss of privacy, fragility, memory and the failure of control and power. Through iconic architectural buildings and urban spaces, Arrechea plays with and entices the viewer to question issues of control, power, surveillance and one’s role within these categories. Arrechea’s work is ultimately a provocative exercise of criticism to the known structures of power in our time.

This revelatory book concentrates on Scottish women painters and sculptors from 1885 until 1965. It explores the experience and context of the artists and their place in Scottish art history, in terms of training, professional opportunities and personal links within the Scottish art world. Celebrated painters including Joan Eardley, Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh and Phoebe Anna Traquair are examined alongside lesserknown figures such as Phyllis Bone, Dorothy Johnstone and Norah Neilson Gray, in order to look afresh at the achievements of Scottish women artists of the modern period. The book accompanies a show which will be held at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art Two in Edinburgh from 7 November 2015 to 26 June 2016. Unfinished paintings can be seen in many of the world’s great collections, including that of the National Gallery of Scotland: they fascinate the viewer and raise intriguing questions. What circumstances left them incomplete? What do they tell us about the ways that painters worked? How do we define ‘finish’, and when did an artist consider a work to be finished? These and other questions will be considered by David Bomford, in an exploration of the non-finito from the Renaissance to the 20th century.
Throughout her long and varied career, Winifred Nicholson (1893-1981) was concerned with light, colour and radiance. Best known for her sensitive and joyful flower paintings, she married Ben Nicholson in 1920 and their mutually influential artistic relationship lasted until Winifred’s death. In the late 1940s and early 1950s, she made regular working trips to Scotland, often accompanied by the poet, Kathleen Raine. Frequently staying on the islands of Eigg and Canna and in Sandaig on the mainland, Winifred felt a deep affinity with the Scottish landscape and marvelled at the quality of light and the effects created by the ever-changing weather conditions. Her last painting expedition was to Eigg in 1980. Winifred Nicholson in Scotland is based on personal correspondence and the recollections of relatives, friends and painting companions. This small formerly unknown archive from the Dieter Hacker Collection is a singular eyot or time-space in the life of James Lee Byars, who like his friend Joseph Beuys was a magisterial lifelong mythmaker and an alchemist of the imagination. What he lived he transformed as regards his understanding of human nature, which means that he affected distinguishing characteristics, including ways of thinking, feeling, and acting, which all humans are able to experience, but he did so independently of the influence and immediate conventions imposed by the strictures of the everyday culture around him. This small archive is a result of this exhibition a secret no more, but for all that it is a unique peephole and insight into the scope of the artist James Lee Byars.

Painting and graphic prints are the preferred mediums of the Norwegian artist Hanne Borchgrevink (b.1951), who over the course of time has focused her attention on the house as the leitmotif of her work. She reduces it to its elemental forms, which forever encounter new constellations. Borchgrevink has long occupied a prominent position in the contemporary art of Norway, for in the repetition of her painterly and motivic vocabulary she always manages to find ever new and surprising as well as provocative answers. This is a beautiful art book that presents a selection of 60 abstract paintings from the recent work (2008 now) of Brussels-based artist Stef Driesen. Driesen brings forward an interest in a more ambient space, providing atmospheric presence in the work. The grayed palette he uses offers moments of bright colour and light breaking through giving a sense of landscape and deep, almost transcendental, fields. The cascading compositions and canyonlike perspectives conjure the movement of waterfalls and, in some cases, is fractured by architectural references. One often meets the view that geometric constructivist art is too predictable, and lacking in vitality. To do away with these misconceptions the Arithmeum Bonn presents geometric constructivist pictures in all their diversity and colour. The many different styles of artists like Max Bill, Richard Paul Lohse, Pier Dorazio, Walter Dexel, Leo Leuppi, Johannes Itten and Richard Mortensen, allow the viewer not only to revel in the wealth of their colours and forms, but to see that geometric constructivist art is not at all without sensuousness. Christian Megert, born in 1936 in Bern, is regarded as a representative of Informal Art, also described as art informale. However, it is soon revealed to the beholder that the artist’s work is nourished by other sources than pure Informal Art. He turns to abstract art, which in turn sets him apart of from the irrational current of the informal oeuvre of the likes of Jean Fautrier or Jean Dubuffet and from the dogma of topology. Strict regularity and order lend his works something meditative and concentrated.
The exhibition catalogue, All the World’s a Stage showcases works from the Goetz Collection, coedited by TF Editores and Fundación Banco Santander. It presents a selection of 93 works from the largest collection of contemporary art in Germany, collected during more than thirty years by Ingvild Goetz. Twenty different artists are represented in the show, including Mike Kelley, Ulrike Ottinger, Nan Goldin, Candida Höfer, Cardiff & Miller, Matthew Barney and Elmgreen and Dragset, among others. The works of art selected for the exhibition will be shown at both venues to encourage visitors to experience both distinguished properties and the grandeur of their surroundings, and to present a complete overview and understanding of these contemporary works in a location where many art historians believe American art was born. The exhibition’s catalogue will provide readers with a lavish record of this extraordinary and innovative exhibition and will offer unique and highly informative perspectives on the continuity of the American artistic tradition in one of the US’s most historic locations.

Philip Guston always had eminent artist friends. Tireless in his quest for the unknown, the still undiscovered, Guston engaged poets and literati in intense dialogues that, starting in the sixties, led to fruitful collaborations - including the creation of numerous illustrations and cover images for works by poets such as William Corbett, Bill Berkson, and Clark Coolidge. In his “poem-pictures,” Guston ultimately turned to producing interactions of text and drawings - as responses to poems by his writer friends or as independent works that incorporated selected lines of poetry.
When Philip Guston turned to the medium of lithography in the early sixties, he was regarded as one of the leading figures of Abstract Expressionism in the United States. At that time, his art was already showing signs of the change that would lead to the later representational works that dominated the last decade of his career. The impressive series of blackand-white lithographs that Guston made shortly before his death in 1980 incorporates, as a sort of visual autobiography, the complete repertoire of objects that marked his return to powerful pictorial representation: simple everyday items, clocks, shoes, books, cigarettes, ashtrays, and occasionally his beloved sandwiches and cherries. Most of the time, ready-made, conceptual art is difficult to understand and appreciate. This little red book about the Cuban artist Ariel Orozco is the perfect approach to that particular kind of art. In the words of Chris Sharp, “[contemporary art] is known to levy greater and greater demands of faith from its viewer, which could be said to yield, in the worst case scenario, an all but preemptive loss of religion (e.g., ‘my five year old could do that!’); and in the best case scenario, proportional returns of marvelousness.” And “marvelousness” in daily life is what the work of Orozco intends to recover: the so-called “marvelousreal” of the Cuban literary tradition, now at the heart of plastic arts. Back to the Start is a profile of mixed media savant Belinda Fox, one of the leading voices in Australian print, ceramic, and sculpture art works. Featuring essays from close associates, we follow Belinda’s journey through her work as a printmaker, an independent artist, a collaborative ceramicist, and a sculptor. Fox has undergone numerous artist residencies, and is the recipient of dozens of prizes, awards, and grants. She is continually improving on her art forms, methods of expression, and her collection of inspirations and influences. Here, Fox presents the fragility of life and its simultaneous unfathomable solidity through the lens of the journey of the individual. This is “Back to the Start.” In 1933, Diego Rivera arrived in New York to paint a mural - Man at the Crossroads - in the Rockefeller Center. A few years before, he had been the second foreign artist to have a solo exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and was at the peak of his fame. However, it was not long before conflicts and disputes arose between the multimillionaire family and the painter. Finally, in February 1934, before the work was finished, it was completely destroyed. Rivera would not paint again in the United States nor would his work be exhibited there for many years. This is the story of that mural and the minute restoration of the sketches he made in preparation for it, now kept at the Anahuacalli Museum, complemented by a great number of letters, photos, and other documents, many of them published for the first time in this fascinating book.

I Am Cuba is a selection of movie posters produced in Cuba between the 1950s and the 1980s. The concepts and forms in them go from decorative to symbolic, from comic to serious, from expressive to surreal. Produced in the decades following the Cuban Revolution of 1959, they also reflect a unique state of mind, infused with a deep sense of individual liberty and youthful revolutionary fervour, in this case not as much political as aesthetic. We get a glimpse of the restless Cuban genius, which makes of something so disposable as a street cartel a statement of strong ideals and a flood of creativity. The work behind this collection is also to be admired: the research, restoration and analysis of art pieces that struggle with time and tropical conditions, moreover with those that believe they are just well-designed publicity without recognising their value. Reading this book resembles walking through an infinite street-art gallery in Mexico City: Di Rosa masterfully revives the elements of folklore but transforms them from stereotype to archetype. His style takes on popular Mexican art and the observer comes across with a comic-street standmarket version of mariachi players, lucha-libre fighters, women, nature, history and all that salsa. There is so much movement that in the end flipping the pages leaves the impression of having read a traveller’s notebook, with no guide nor map and almost no text but with the souvenirs of a journey took on from one image to another. This is an artist’s book.
O’Gorman, student and partner of Diego Rivera, painted Credit Transforms Mexico for the Banco Internacional’s headquarters between 1964 and 1965. Today, this private mural has been restored in the new HSBC building. In it, the artist depicts the process by which the land is worked and manipulated until it brings a benefit for mankind, but it also incorporates certain ironic elements that contradict and undermine the dream in which technology with its transformation of nature into highways and factories brings a promising future. This book contains a 182 x 27 cm poster with the reproduction of the complete mural and close-ups of the most important details so the reader can follow up the description and analysis of the concepts behind this complex work of art for greater aesthetic pleasure and understanding. Olivier Debroise introduces this book as a review of the 13 years of artistic production by Miguel Ventura and his corrosive critique of the mechanisms of power through video, performance, and interactive multimedia installations, now scenarios for staging of his obsession with the transmutations of the body and the dissemination of a language based on the braids of Heidi Schreiber, Ventura’s infantilised schizophrenic female alter ego. NILC is a project that includes photographs on experimental subjects in strange dynamics, tables of illustrations as if used as an alphabet, official documents and t-shirts that corroborate the impact and institutionalism of the mission. All in all, it is a harsh and undermining campaign against major projects like the Interterritorial Language Committee (ILC) of East Africa, which was responsible for the manipulation and standardisation of spelling, grammar, and vocabulary in the Swahili language.

Marie Spartali Stillman (1844-1927) was one of a small number of professional female artists working in the second half of the nineteenth century. She was an important presence in the Victorian art world and closely affiliated with members of the Pre-Raphaelite circle, modelling for George Frederic Watts, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and Edward Burne-Jones, among others. Desiring an artistic career of her own, she trained with Ford Madox Brown. This fullyillustrated catalogue provides the opportunity to examine approximately fifty of her works. On the fiftieth anniversary of the new ceiling painted by Chagall for the Paris Opéra in 1964, this richly illustrated volume tells the story behind the creation of a remarkable composition. An introduction sets the work in its context, and is followed by an account of the controversy that raged for years around this startling commission by André Malraux, Minister for Cultural Affairs. A detailed table of illustrations and bibliography complete this sumptuous and scholarly exploration of a celebrated masterpiece.

This major work, first published in 1950, is still considered the classic work on the subject. The book was revised and enlarged by ACC in the year 2000, and published to overwhelming acclaim; this is a reprint of that edition. It provides a comprehensive, critical and well illustrated survey of the portrayal of plants through more than three thousand years. Of the first edition, the poet and gardening writer, Vita Sackville-West, after referring in The Observer to the wealth of illustration and the fascination of the text, then said, “Let no one think this is a book only for the specialist. It is essential for the specialist, certainly, but it is also for all the flower-lovers and all those who enjoy the by-ways of biography and the added attraction of good writing”.
African art emerged from the world of ethnology at the beginning of the 20th century to find its place in the history of art. The book will attempt, for the first time, to highlight both the purely aesthetic aspects of African works of art, and their significance, explored in light of the religious and social structures that characterise the African continent; slabs from Benin, Bakotan reliquaries, Bundu masks, pieces in ivory, wood and bronze, to look at Africa from this two-fold point of view. A description of the principal African ethnic groups and where they are, with a timeline showing the main stages in African studies from myth to history.

A masterpiece of Persian literature written in the twelfth century, The Canticle of the Birds is the poetic expression of a universal initiatory quest, for Love, Truth and Unity. The translation by Dick Davis and Afkham Darbandi, published by Penguin Classics in 1984, was the first verse translation in English of Attar’s work. His passionate and scholarly translation fluidly renders the poet’s thought, as well as the beauty and musicality of his language. For this edition, Dick Davis has translated the prologue and epilogue, and has also reworked several passages. More than two hundred Persian,Turkish, Afghan and Indo-Pakistani works, chosen from the most beautiful manuscripts of the fourteenth to the seventeenth centuries - from the banks of the Bosporusto to those of the Ganges - complement the poem.

Royal Taste offers a rare opportunity to examine more than a hundred objects from five museums in Hubei, China, including metal and porcelain work, jewellery, paintings and sculpture. With essays and entries from seven leading scholars, this beautifully illustrated catalogue offers fresh perspectives on the material culture of China at a time before Europe entered its great age of discovery. Major themes include the impact of state patronage on Daoist and Tibetan Buddhist art, and the role of princely courts in defining late imperial Chinese art and culture. The Guangxi Museum was opened in 1978; it showcases all aspects of the complex Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, reflecting both classical Chinese culture as well as that of the Zhuang, the largest minority people in the region. Exhibits range from ‘Liujiang Man’ - the earliest representative of modern man found to date anywhere in China or Southeast Asia - to spectacular displays of Guangxi bronze culture, including bells, axes, spears, ladles and other objects. The customs, costumes, weaving and dyeing technologies, embroidery and local festivals of the Zhuang and the 11 other national minorities are also well represented. At the pinnacle of French power in India, Pondicherry sparked the imagination of those back home. Pondicherry was the French window on Indian culture, proudly seen as the Gallic Gateway of India. For over three centuries this gateway witnessed the busy trade of spices, beautiful textiles, woven cloth and later peanuts in return for a steady flow of gold, silver, weapons, merchants, priests, soldiers and adventurers. Later, as the English tightened their noose around Pondicherry, the beleaguered French were caught up in their own fateful and impossible attempt to combine colonial and republican principles. The purpose of this book is to present a brief, illustrated history of these places that once were French. An abridged version of the epic tale of Lord Rama featuring the rare miniature artwork of the historic Mewar Ramayana. Also known as the Jagat Singh Ramayana, this was the finest copy of the work ever commissioned by a Hindu ruler. The Mewar Ramayana was one of the greatest manuscript projects ever undertaken in India, and for five years (1649 to 1653) required close collaboration between teams of painters. Roli Books offers you a rare glimpse into the historical artwork, coupled with a succinct retelling of the story written by bestselling author and Ancient India aficionado, Sumedha Verma Ojha.

The building of Stowe was begun in 1676; over the next century it developed into one of Europe’s greatest classical houses, visited by European and Russian royalty. Surrounded by magnificent landscape gardens, the estate still inspires awe in visitors today. Numerous famous architects worked on its construction, including Sir John Vanbrugh, William Kent, James Gibbs, Robert Adam, Thomas Pitt and Sir John Soane. By the mid-19th century, however, the estate had fallen into decline and was only saved by the foundation of Stowe School in 1923. Stowe House is now finally being restored to its former glory. This lavishly illustrated book explores the tumultuous history of a house that was once too grand even for royalty. During the Gilded Age of the late 1880s to the 1910s American millionaires demonstrated their prosperity through their elaborate homes. Maymont was the 100-acre country estate of Richmond-born financier James Henry Dooley and his wife Sallie May Dooley. The Dooleys spent three decades filling its sumptuous interiors with treasures from around the world and establishing Maymont’s magnificent gardens, landscape and architectural complex. This lavishly illustrated and elegantly designed volume welcomes the reader into this spectacular estate, appealing to visitors as well as all those fascinated in the history and grandeur of the Gilded Age in America. The Royal Convent and Palace of Mafra is the most important baroque monument in Portugal. It was built in the early 18th century by King João V of Portugal. This vast palace that was eventually constructed is made from local limestone and marble and has 1200 rooms. It features one of the most important libraries of Enlightenment Europe, while the convent includes sculptures and paintings by great Italian and Portuguese masters. Among the later additions under the reign of King João VI was an ensemble of six organs for the Basilica. This great example of European baroque is explored in a new guidebook through new photography and a highly informative account. Andreas Vesalius did not die returning from Jerusalem on a deserted beach in the Ionian Sea, the only victim of a shipwreck. He did not travel to the Holy Land under pressure of the Inquisition, neither as penance nor escape: he went there as a devout pilgrim with the support of his employer. Weakened by his stay and by his unfortunate return journey, he died in Zakynthos. Biomedical artist Pascale Pollier has long been searching for the bones of Andreas Vesalius. What began as a poetic quest for the lost grave of the father of human anatomy, has evolved into a well-documented fresh appraisal of some of the mysteries in the last months of the life of Andreas Vesalius, exactly 450 years after his death. For Field Marshal Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington (1769-1852), whether he was leading a military campaign or His Majesty’s government, his chief aim in life was to serve his country. This idea of service lies at the heart of the foundation of Wellington College. The Duke brought peace to Europe and was described by Queen Victoria as “the greatest man this country has ever produced”. His life and achievements towered over the first half of the nineteenth century and he continues to be widely admired. Waterloo to Wellington explores the qualities of character and intellect that made the Duke of Wellington’s military campaigns so successful, and which Wellington College in turn aims to foster in its pupils.

Isabel Gilbert Palmer has been passionate about flowers for years. For this book she has travelled around the world to listen to the stories of the grandmasters of floral art. These artists create poetry with flowers. With a minimum of means taken from nature they are able to evoke, seduce and astonish. This book offers a look behind the scenes of the creation of their works, their sources of inspiration and the most special floral decorations, creating a new world; a world where craftsmanship and beauty go hand in hand.
The combination of Ikebana and haiku is a successful one. The seductive simplicity of haiku, its subtleties and sparse use of words, its silences and depth of meaning, its rhythms and seasons… these are only some of the characteristics that haiku shares with Ikebana. Both Ikebana and haiku evoke emotions using material that has carefully been trimmed of the superfluous. Both Ikebana and haiku invite us to see more than what the visible world has to offer. Members of the centre for poetry in Ghent, led by Hedwig Aerts, made a selection of their favourite traditional haiku. On the occasion of this book, they also created some new personal haiku. Poetical Ikebana is the floral translation of these haiku. Rumiko Manako is a refreshing outsider in the world of floral design. Her floral art is as graceful as dance movements, as technical and well thought-out as Ikenobo (Ikebana) but at the same time it remains as accessible as Western flower arranging. This book shows Rumiko’s designs in interaction with some special Parisian landmarks (including Castel Beranger, the Eiffel Tower, La Géode and Rodin), supplemented with works made in the studio and inspired by her many travels and encounters. Rumiko Manako is head of Manako Jafas in Paris and director of the Ikenobo Bousoukai Branch in Tokyo. Georg Grabherr, one of the most influential conservation biologists, has created a domestic garden and incorporated key biosphere reserve concepts. Over time, his garden has developed into an ecological gem where the idea of “nature in the garden” has been realised in an exemplary manner. He guides us through the phenological seasons that divide the year by the arrival of key species, covers themes dear to the gardener’s heart and engages in a dialogue with nature, thoughtfully accepting and using what is wild and spontaneous. He is asking whether the thousands of private gardens can become a Noah’s Ark, suitable for rescuing threatened species. In 1890, Claude Monet bought a house at Giverny in Normandy. Soon he had laid out the first of the three studios in which he could paint. Now the garden that was to be a constant source of inspiration for those paintings claimed all his attention. In 1893, work started on the excavation of the famous pond that he would plant with water lilies, and over which he would build a Japanese bridge festooned with wisteria. Richly illustrated with photographs taken as the seasons unfold, this guide takes us on a tour of the house and gardens, inviting us to explore the settings in which Monet and his family spent their daily lives, from the iconic yellow dining room to the famous salon-studio.

This volume meticulously records our enduring love affair with the water lily. It is a comprehensive and detailed account of their introduction into European culture, largely through the passion and devotion of one man, Joseph Bory Latour-Marliac (1830-1911), whose lifelong work in the field of propagation, cultivation and commercialisation of water lilies inspired a generation of horticulturists, artists and poets to create the words and images that are deeply embedded in our culture today. Claude Monet, for example, used lilies from Latour-Marliac’s nursery to create his garden in Giverny. The work Latour-Marliac did gave rise to development of specialist lily nurseries and growers across Europe and North America; in fact, Latour-Marliac’s nursery still exists today, owned by Robert Sheldon, an American who shared Latour-Marliac’s passion for water lilies and water gardening and has been the force behind the nursery’s continued success today.
The Gardens on the Alhambra Hill, is intended to be a publication that reflects the historical and aesthetic importance of the gardens of this unique monument of humanity. Since the time it was built, from the eleventh to the fifteenth centuries, the gardens have been an inseparable part of it. The authors of the text are two professors from the University of Granada, experts of the monument and its surroundings. They will lead us through a promenade of flowers, plants, trees and gardens with an informative text. Spectacular photographs by Fernando Manso will take us to this paradise.

Transforming outdoor space is one of the hottest home trends today. The Garden Bible can help homeowners understand the challenges of their site and what needs to be done for their garden to develop and thrive. No other book takes a homeowner from the beginning of the process to ask a professional the right questions, know the challenges of a specific site - drainage, erosion, privacy, noise, wind, too much sun or shade, wildlife, and understand what needs to be done on an ongoing basis for the garden to grow, evolve, and look better in years to come, as well as be in sync with its surroundings. Few books also explain all the stylistic options available and cost-saving solutions. This book will do this, and help guide you through the process of designing the perfect garden. With 20 case studies, highlighting the most popular garden trends - how they transformed a site, what challenges were involved, and how the project could have been done with more affordable options - The Garden Bible will show you that not only is a great garden beautiful to look at, but it’s also great for the soul.

In a vivid and lucid style, his astonishing poems reveal the complexities, depths and urgencies of living at the edge of life and death. Renowned for his sophisticated yet understated craftsmanship, Hodgins writes with subtlety, humour and heartbreaking intensity.
Zoom into a cloud. Zoom out of a rock. Watch the volcano explode, the lightning strike, an aurora undulate. Imagine ice sheets expanding, retreating pulsating - while continents continue their leisurely collisions. Everywhere there are structures within structures... within structures. A Voyage Through Scales is an invitation to contemplate the earth’s extraordinary variability, from changes in milliseconds to geologic time scales, from microns to the size of the planet. The range of scales in space, in time - in space-time - is truly mind boggling. Their complexity challenges our ability to measure, to model, to comprehend. Join us on this odyssey. This may well be an address book but it is certainly unlike any other; it contains a delicious selection of Simon Drew’s highly idiosyncratic drawings and accompanying written captions. What could be more surprising than finding a mole wandering across Auntie Flo’s address? Or maybe an earthworm writhing past a telephone number? Gifted with a quirky sense of fun and a lively imagination, Simon Drew interprets conventional words and phrases, situations and circumstances in pictures and prose. It is an address book designed to delight all those who enjoy verbal and pictorial puns. Simon Drew’s first book published by ACC was A Book of Bestial Nonsense. Many years later, Fowl Fleas and Fancy Fauna, Simon’s latest book, concentrates on the Animal Kingdom again, following in the footsteps of Charles Darwin in seeking to offer a unifying theory on our existence: humankind has developed an acute sense of the ludicrous and Simon is an expert in ridiculous behaviour. So will this book be compared to the Origin of Species? We leave the readers to make up their own minds - if, indeed, they are still in possession of their wits after reading this book.
