The Divers' Game
A pair of girls, Lethe and Lois, navigates the perimeters of a segregated city, armed with canisters of killing gas. Another child, Lessen, is at the centre of a bizarre cultural ritual that could be the subject of a Goya painting.
Centring on the garish festivals of an allegorical nation, The Divers' Game moves through worlds in which kindness is no longer meaningful. A scathing indictment of the inequalities of Western society, it makes visible the violence that has threaded its way into every aspect of our lives, and the radical empathy we need to combat it.

Goya
Unflinching eye: Goya, the vivid witness to beauty, grandeur, and warFrom court portraits for the Spanish royals to horrific scenes of conflict and suffering, Francisco Jose de Goya y Lucientes (1746 1828) made a mark as one of Spain s most revered and controversial artists. A master of form and light, his influence reverberates down the centuries, inspiring and fascinating artists from the Romantic Eugene Delacroix to Britart enfants terribles, the Chapman brothers.Born in Fuendetodos, Spain, in 1746, Goya was apprenticed to the Spanish royal family in 1774, where he produced etchings and tapestry cartoons for grand palaces and royal residences across the country. He was also patronized by the aristocracy, painting commissioned portraits of the rich and powerful with his increasingly fluid and expressive style. Later, after a bout of illness, the artist moved towards darker etchings and drawings, introducing a nightmarish realm of witches, ghosts, and fantastical creatures.It was, however, with his horrific depictions of conflict that Goya achieved enduring impact. Executed between 1810 and 1820, The Disasters of War was inspired by atrocities committed during the Spanish struggle for independence from the French and penetrated the very heart of human cruelty and sadism. The bleak tones, agitated brushstrokes, and aggressive use of Baroque-like light and dark contrasts recalled Velazquez and Rembrandt, but Goya s subject matter was unprecedented in its brutality and honesty.In this introductory book from TASCHEN Basic Art 2.0 we set out to explore the full arc of Goya s remarkable career, from elegant court painter to deathly seer of suffering and grotesquerie. Along the way, we encounter such famed portraits as Don Manuel Osorio Manrique de Zuniga, the dazzling Naked Maja, and The 3rd of May 1808 in Madrid, one of the most heart-stopping images of war in the history of art.About the series: Each book in TASCHEN s Basic Art series features: a detailed chronological summary of the life and oeuvre of the artist, covering his or her cultural and historical importance a concise biography approximately 100 illustrations with explanatory captions"
The Self-Portrait
Self-portraiture shows no sign of losing its ability to capture the public imagination. Given our current proclivity to snap and share 'selfies' in seconds, it is unsurprising to find a renewed interest in the genre among general audiences and students. Self-portraits have the power to illuminate a range of universal concerns, from identity, purpose and authenticity, to frailty, futility and mortality.
In this volume, curator Natalie Rudd expertly casts fresh light on the self-portrait and its international appeal, exploring the historical contexts within which self-portraits have proliferated and considering the meanings they hold today. With commentaries on works by artists ranging from Jan van Eyck and Artemisia Gentileschi to Francisco Goya, Pablo Picasso, Frida Kahlo and Jenny Saville, the book explores the emotive and expressive potential of self-portraiture, and its capacities to distance or to demystify. Can self-portraits offer windows into artistic process? Is there ever a singular identity to be captured? Is it necessary for a self-portrait to depict the human form? In her vibrant and timely discussion, Rudd dissects these and other important questions, revealing the shifting faces of individuality and selfhood in an age where we are interrogating notions of personal identity more than ever before.
Endless Enigma
Lineages of the eerie, the strange and the fantastical: from Blake, Goya and Redon to Borremans, Yuskavage and Marshall
Endless Enigma: Eight Centuries of Fantastic Art explores the ways in which artists have sought to explain their world in terms of an alternate reality, drawn from imagination, the subconscious, poetry, nature, myth and religion.
Endless Enigma takes as its point of departure Alfred H. Barr Jr.’s legendary 1936 exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, Fantastic Art, Dada, Surrealism, which not only introduced these movements to the American public, but also placed them in a historical and cultural context by situating them among artists from earlier centuries.
Presenting works from the 12th century to the present day, the book is organized into six themes?Monsters & Demons, Dreams & Temptation, Fragmented Body, Unconscious Gesture, Super Nature and Sense of Place. Works included range from medieval gargoyles to 20th-century works by Louise Bourgeois, Sigmar Polke and Pablo Picasso as well as contemporary works by Michaël Borremans and Marcel Dzama. Masterworks from the likes of Piero di Cosimo, Francisco de Goya and Titian are considered alongside those by William Blake and Odilon Redon. Time folds and temporal barriers collapse when Damiano Cappelli meets Edvard Munch, and Salvator Rosa encounters Lisa Yuskavage. Salvador Dalí, Sherrie Levine, Kerry James Marshall?eight centuries intersect and, as such, this wide-ranging catalog examines affinities in intention and imagery between works executed across a broad span of time.

Művészek és remekművek
A könyv tizenhat fejezete szubjektív válogatás a képzőművészet kimeríthetetlen kincsestárából. A régmúltba tekintve Noé és az özönvíz ábrázolása, valamint a középkori haláltánc köré rakódó hiedelmek kerülnek bemutatásra.
A groteszkről és a csúfról szóló fejezetekben olvashatunk a képzőművészet Örkény Istvánja, Tóth Ernő derűs humorral ábrázolt mesevilágáról, Francisco Goya boszorkányai, Jérôme Bosch vagy Edvard Munch csúf alakjai pedig azt igazolják, hogy a rút is lehet esztétikus. Betekintést nyerhetünk az impresszionizmus atyja, Camille Pissarro, az irányzat névadója, Claude Monet és a béna kézzel is alkotó Auguste Renoir magánéletébe és műveik létrejöttének körülményeibe, a festmények elemzése pedig hozzásegít azok jobb megértéshez.
A legtitokzatosabb szürrealista festő, René Magritte mágikus realizmusának körüljárása megértet valamit a festőzseni titkaiból. Azt is megtudjuk, miért mondta Pablo Picasso, hogy nem ismeri a néger művészetet, holott saját művein kimutatható az afrikai szobrok és maszkok hatása. Detektívregénybe illő az a csalássorozat, amelynek során az op-art magyar származású pápáját saját családja is meglopta. A festők Mekkájára, a Montmartre-ra kalandozva kiderül, hogy Vincent van Gogh a színeket és a fényt találta meg a régi Montmartre-on, Henri Toulouse-Lautrec pedig a Montmartre másik arcát, az éjszakai életet örökítette meg.
A könyv utolsó részében Charles Baudelaire és Édourd Manet különleges barátsága, Paul Cezanne gyerekkori barátjával, Émile Zolával és atyjaként szeretett festőtársával, Camille Pissaróval való bensőséges kapcsolata, valamint Auguste Rodin és Camille Claudel tragédiába torkolló szerelme olvasható.

Good Citizens Need Not Fear
'Bright, funny, satirical and relevant. . . . A new talent to watch!' MARGARET ATWOOD (via Twitter)
'Bang-on brilliant' MIRIAM TOEWS
This brilliant and bitingly funny novel-in-stories, set in and around a single crumbling apartment building in Soviet-era Ukraine, heralds the arrival of a major new talent.
'A comic triumph' GLOBE AND MAIL
A cast of unforgettable characters--citizens of the small industrial town of Kirovka--populate Maria Reva's ingeniously entwined tales that span the chaotic years leading up to and immediately following the fall of the Soviet Union in 1989. Weaving the strands of the narrative together is an unforgettable, chameleon-like young woman named Zaya: an orphan turned beauty-pageant crasher who survives the extraordinary circumstances of her childhood through a compelling combination of ferocity, intelligence, stubbornness and wit.
Inspired by her own family's history, Reva's Good Citizens Need Not Fear takes us from paranoia to tenderness and back again, exploring what it is to be an individual amid the roiling forces of history.

Witchcraft. The Library of Esoterica
Initiating readers in the fascinating and complex history of witchcraft, from the goddess mythologies of ancient cultures to the contemporary embrace of the craft by modern artists and activists, this expansive tome conjures up a breathtaking overview of an age-old tradition. Rooted in legend, folklore, and myth, the archetype of the witch has evolved from the tales of Odysseus and Circe, the Celtic seductress Cerridwen, and the myth of Hecate, fierce ruler of the moonlit night. In Witchcraft we survey her many incarnations since, as she shape-shifts through the centuries, alternately transforming into mother, nymph, and crone-seductress and destroyer.
Edited by Jessica Hundley, and co-edited by author, scholar, and practitioner Pam Grossman, this enthralling visual chronicle is the first of its kind, a deep dive into the complex symbologies behind witchcraft traditions, as explored through the history of art itself. The witch has played muse to great artists throughout time, from the dark seductions of Francisco Jose de Goya and Albrecht Durer to the elegant paean to the magickal feminine as re-imagined by the Surrealist circle of Remedios Varo, Leonora Carrington, and Leonor Fini. The witch has spellbound through folktales and dramatic literature as well, from the poison apples of The Brothers Grimm, to the Weird Sisters gathered at their black cauldron in Shakespeare's Macbeth, to L. Frank Baum's iconic Wicked Witch of the West, cackling over the fate of Dorothy.
Throughout this entrancing visual voyage, we'll also bear witness to the witch as she endures persecution and evolves into empowerment, a contemporary symbol of bold defiance and potent nonconformity. Featuring enlightening essays by modern practitioners like Kristen J. Sollee and Judika Illes, as well interviews with authors and scholars such as Madeline Miller and Juliet Diaz, Witchcraft includes a vast range of cultural traditions that embrace magick as spiritual exploration and creative catharsis.

This is Goya
Modern art begins with Goya. He was the first to create works of art for their own sake, and he lived in a time of incredible cultural and social dynamism when the old concepts of social hierarchy were being shaken by the new concept of equality for all. He saw his world ripped apart by Napoleon's armies and then suffered the reactionary backlash as the old order was restored. Against this epic canvas, Goya painted his own observations of humanity, transforming his youthful images of gaily dancing peasants into his mature penetrating studies of human suffering, despair, perseverance and redemption. Goya's art rises above the chaos of his times, and signals the real revolution of personal expression and independent spirit that would be the generative force behind the modernist movement in art.

Sníh na trávě
Dvousvazková kniha Sníh na trávě (Sneg na trave, Moskva 2008), mistrovské literární a obrazové dílo z oblasti světového výtvarného umění a animace autora Jurije Borisoviče Norštejna (1941), je jednou z nejvýznamnějších současných publikací pojednávajících o spojitosti výtvarného umění, vyjádření pohybu a času ve výtvarném umění a animace, která byla během historie vydána. Autor svou knihu původně koncipoval jako materiál pro studenty a renomované tvůrce a výtvarníky, postupem času však posunul tento koncept do podoby rozsáhlého díla, které zdaleka přesahuje umělecké obory a promítá ve svém obsahu jedinečné myšlenky, zkušenosti, postupy a postřehy jednoho z nejvýznamnějších současných ruských výtvarníků a představitelů animace. Kniha zároveň výše zmíněný obsah dává do kontextu s díly výjimečných postav historie světového výtvarného umění. Její přínos je nesporný nejen pro studenty uměleckých universit, pro teoretiky a historiky umění, ale i pro širokou odbornou i laickou veřejnost, zajímající se o výtvarné umění a kinematografii. Oba obsáhlé díly převyšují koncepčním řešením a obsahovou kvalitou všechny dosavadní monografie o Juriji Norštejnovi i díla, která byla v této oblasti doposud vydána. Kniha představuje po Norštejnově boku také tvorbu významné výtvarnice a ženy J. Norštejna Francesky Jarbusové. I ta se již trvale zapsala do historie současného ruského výtvarného umění a animovaného filmu. Výtvarná i filmová tvorba Jurije Norštejna získala řadu ocenění. Sám Norštejn prezentoval svou tvorbu na řadě velkých výstav v prestižních domech (například v USA, Rusku, Japonsku aj.), jeho snímek i kniha Ježek v mlze patří mezi signifikantní díla umění pro děti ve světovém měřítku, na prestižních mezinárodních festivalech získal Norštejn řadu významných ocenění (Záhřeb, Annecy, Teherán, New York, Melbourne, Los Angeles) a jeho filmy byly zařazeny mezi nejvýznamnější díla světové animace. Snímek Pohádka pohádek (Skazka skazok, SSSR 1979) je v četných anketách odborníků i diváků označován za nejlepší animovaný film všech dob (hodnocení prestižní světové asociace ASIFA). Jurije Norštějna pojí s Českou republikou i letité osobní přátelství s řadou významných českých výtvarníků a tvůrců animovaného filmu. Veřejnosti je znám zejména jeho osobní i profesionální vztah s režisérem Břetislavem Pojarem, režisérem a scenáristou Jiřím Kubíčkem nebo Janem Švankmajerem. Právě dlouholeté přátelství s profesorem Jiřím Kubíčkem, který knihu přeložil, podpořilo souhlas Jurije Norštejna s vydáním této publikace v českém jazyce. Publikace je jedinečná rozsáhlou ilustrační částí. Kniha obsahuje více než 1500 ilustrací, reprodukcí, skic, náčrtů, výtvarných citací a studií. Obrazová část představuje jak díla Norštejna a Jarbusové, a to v detailních rozkresech jejich výtvarného vyjádření, tak studie klasických a jedinečných děl velikánů světového výtvarného umění (Goya, Van Gogh, Picasso, Braque, Dalí, Repin aj.) nebo rozklady děl spojených neodlučitelně s lidskou kulturní historií (jeskyně Altamira, prehistorické malby v jeskyni Lascaux), v rámci jejichž rozboru autor vysvětluje a předkládá postupy a principy výtvarného výrazu. Kniha přibližuje také techniku a tvorbu v atelieru Norštejna a Jarbusové. Poodhaluje tak roušku tvorby J. Norštejna, tedy tajemství, které v sedmdesátých letech zajímalo desítky tvůrců výtvarného i filmového umění. Čtenář nahlédne přímo mistrovi pod ruce, na názorných skicách a nákresech se dotkne Norštejnova umu vrstvení obrazu a použití pohybových fází v rámci celkového filmového záběru. V první části knihy se autor věnuje široce času a prostoru v malířské kompozici a díky exkursu do moderního umění, umění gotiky, realismu, surrealismu a dalších výtvarných epoch provádí čtenáře svým jedinečným a zkušeným pohledem skrze úžasné momenty historie výtvarného umění. V další části knihy pak přirozeně přechází k fúzi výtvarného umění, architektury a filmu. Čtenář se doslova na dotek seznámí s užasnou tvorbou Francesky Jarbusové, vstoupí do Norštejnova ateliéru a detailně pozná vývoj páteřních děl světové animace Pohádka pohádek a Ježek v mlze. Druhý díl Sněhu na trávě jde ve znamení Norštejnova životního díla Plášť, unikátního, neopakovatelného a dosud nedokončeného zpracování Gogolovy povídky. Toto dílo, třebaže jeho vývoj a tvorba trvá již přes třicet let a dosud není dokončeno, patří mezi kultovní počiny světové animace i výtvarného umění. I v druhé knize Norštejn detailně přibližuje charaktery, výtvarné techniky, vyjádření prostředí, času a pohybu a opět nachází paralely a studie v dílech dalších světových velikánů. Skutečný obsah knihy nelze popsat na několika řádcích, hloubka Norštejnova sdělení je obsažena v celé publikaci a pro hlubší seznámení je nutno projít celé dílo opakovaně. Kniha Sníh na trávě je bezpochyby počinem světového významu. Proto je velká škoda, že doposud zůstala Evropě i světu „skryta“ ve vydání jediné ruskojazyčné verze. Vydání knihy v České republice by tak bylo nejen úžasným dárkem české kulturní obci, ale také evropským unikátem, na který může být domácí knižní scéna bez zardění pyšná. Publikace je vedle své umělecké hodnoty velmi ceným studijním materiálem, který využijí studenti uměleckých, a to nejen výtvarných, škol současné i těch budoucích generací. Kniha se stane bezesporu hodnotným inspiračním zdrojem také pro domácí aktivní tvůrce, kteří se dosud s tvorbou tohoto světového velikána setkali pouze letmo.

Goya
Francisco Goya has been widely celebrated as the most important Spanish artist of the late-eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the last of the old masters and the first of the moderns, and an astute observer of the human condition in all its complexity. The many-layered and shifting meanings of his work have made him one of the most studied artists in the world. Few, however, have made the ambitious attempt to explore his work as a painter, printmaker and draftsman across media and the timeline of his life. This book does just that, presenting a comprehensive and integrated view of Goya's most important paintings, prints, and drawings through the themes and imagery that continually challenged or preoccupied the artist. They reveal how he strove relentlessly to understand and describe human behavior and emotional states, even at their most orderly or disorderly extremes, in elegant and incisive portraits, dramatic and monumental history paintings, and series of prints and drawings of a satirical, disturbing and surreal nature. Derived from the research for the largest Goya art exhibition in North America in a quarter-century, this book takes a fresh look at one of the greatest artists in history by examining the fertile territory between the two poles that defined the range of his boundlessly creative personality. Francisco José Goya y Lucientes (1746-1828) was born in Fuendetodos, Aragón, in the northeast of Spain. Goya was court painter to the Spanish Crown, and famously documented the Peninsular War (1807-1814) between France and Spain in his harrowing "Disasters of War" series. An important bridge to the modernist era, Goya's oeuvre provided a crucial precedent for artists such as Manet, Picasso and Francis Bacon.

Teremtő vágyak
A színes képekkel gazdagon illusztrált kötet tizenhét világhírű festőművész életének egy-egy különös, izgalmas történetén keresztül mutatja be művész és múzsája szenvedélyes viszonyát. Azt a sokszor szövevényes, rejtélyes, gyakran titkos viszonyt, amelyből majd a remekmű megszületik. Picasso, Modigliani, Frida Kahlo, Schiele, Manet, Munch, Gauguin, Dalí, Toulouse-Lautrec, Goya, Magritte, Kokoschka és még számos világhírű festőművész életének olyan rejtelmeivel találkozunk, amit eddig csak a nagyon beavatottak ismerhettek. Valamennyien egyfajta lelki vagy testi függésben éltek – kedveshez, feleséghez, szeretőhöz, apához, anyához kötötte őket lázas, vagy éppen frusztráló, lelki zavart teremtő szenvedély.
In Half
Twenty-five years into the future, a glitch in the global communications network is ripping a previously united world apart at the seams. The millennials find themselves hardest hit, trapped in a crumbling world they did not want - among them childhood friends Evan, an addict theatre director; Kras, a family patriarch and ex-war-minister; and Zoja, an anarchist poet. As they each prepare to celebrate their fiftieth birthdays, the friends desperately try to recapture the magic of their former lives and hold on to some sort of sense of belonging.
With its experimental style and sharp focus on the contradictions of modernity, In/Half is a powerful statement on the perils of the future, and on the nature of the novel, by an outstanding voice from the new generation of writers.
