Fashionopolis: The Price of Fast Fashion - and the Future of Clothes
'A gripping blockbuster ... Thomas researches meticulously and writes with simmering even-handed anger' TELEGRAPH. Fashionopolis is the definitive book on the cost of fast fashion, and a blueprint for how we get to a more sustainable future.
Fashion has blighted our planet. Today, one out of six people on earth work in fashion, churning out 100 billion garments a year. Yet 98 percent of them do not earn a living wage, and 2.1 billion tonnes of clothing is thrown away annually. The clothing industry's exploitation of fellow humans and the environment has reached epic levels. What should we do?
Bestselling author and veteran journalist Dana Thomas has travelled the globe to find the answers. In Fashionopolis, she details the damage wrought by fashion's behemoths, and celebrates the visionaries - including activists, artisans, designers, and tech entrepreneurs - fighting for change.
We all have been casual about our clothes. It's time to get dressed with intention. Fashionopolis is the first comprehensive look at how to start.

Kontrasty tanečných príbehov/ Contrasts in Dance Stories
Prvá odborná monografia o baletnom umelcovi na Slovensku je pútavým príbehom dlhoročného vedúceho sólistu Baletu Slovenského národného divadla Zoltána Nagya. Na javisku tejto scény pôsobil až do svojich štyridsiatich šiestich rokov. Stvárnil tu viac ako päťdesiat postáv, okrem hlavných aj charakterové, v baletných inscenáciách klasického a moderného repertoáru. Kritici ho ocenili titulom danseur noble ako jedného z mála slovenských tanečníkov v dejinách. So svojou tanečnou kariérou dvadsiatich ôsmich divadelných sezón sa zaradil medzi najdlhšie pôsobiacich profesionálov v tejto oblasti.
V prvej časti knihy Zoltán Nagy vo sviežom rozhovore s publicistkou, kunsthistoričkou Lindou Nagyovou, jeho dcérou, hovorí o predstaveniach, stvárňovaných postavách, tanečných partnerkách – jednou z nich bola Augusta Herényiová-Starostová, považovaná za prvú slovenskú primabalerínu. Nezabúda na výtvarné, hudobné dianie spájajúce sa s inscenáciami, na pôvodnú slovenskú tvorbu, na skladateľov Ilju Zeljenku, Eugena Suchoňa. V otázkach je priebežne konfrontovaný s faktami a historickými súvislosťami. Venuje sa aj témam spojeným s úspechom dlhoročnej kariéry tanečníka bez úrazov.
Rozhovor dopĺňa viac než sto fotografií z predstavení i vystúpení na európskych javiskách. Mnohé z nich prešli náročnou rekonštrukciou a neboli doteraz publikované. Súčasťou dialógu sú citácie dobových recenzií.
Druhá časť publikácie patrí spomienkam významných osobností z umeleckého prostredia – jeho kolegyniam, kolegom, žiakom a súčasníkom.
Súčasťou knihy je anglický preklad, ktorý umožní nahliadnuť do problematiky cudzincom.
Napísanie a vydanie publikácie z verejných zdrojov podporil Fond na podporu umenia.

Rivers of Babylon (audiokniha)
Číta: Marián Miezga
Knižný debut, román Rivers of Babylon, vzbudil nebývalý čitateľský a kritický záujem. Pišťanek v ňom expresívnym jazykom s využitím rôznych štýlových vrstiev opisuje pre slovenskú literatúru netradičné prostredie bratislavského podsvetia, ktoré zaľudňujú postavy drobných i väčších podvodníkov a prostitútok. Jedinou ambíciou týchto ľudí je spríjemniť si život, čo v ich chápaní znamená oklamať, využiť či zničiť tých ostatných. V tomto svete sa svojou primitívnou a priamočiarou túžbou po moci a peniazoch čoraz viac presadzuje hlavná postava, dedinčan Rácz. Niekde v pozadí týchto činností, ktoré postavám zapĺňajú celý život, sa odohráva revolučná zmena roku 1989. Inšpiračné zdroje pre tento román nájdeme v tzv. poklesnutých žánroch - aj Pišťanek kladie dôraz najmä na priamočiarosť rozprávania a rýchly spád deja. Namiesto psychologizácie sa prikláňa k extrovertnému typu písania.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a deeply affecting coming-of-age story that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.

Afterlives: Recovering the Lost Stories of Looted Art
A strikingly original exploration of the profound impact of World War II on how we understand the art that survived it
By the end of World War II an estimated one million artworks and 2.5 million books had been seized from their owners by Nazi forces; many were destroyed. The artworks and cultural artifacts that survived have traumatic, layered histories. This book traces the biographies of these objects-including paintings, sculpture, and Judaica-their rescue in the aftermath of the war, and their afterlives in museums and private collections and in our cultural understanding. In examining how this history affects the way we view these works, scholars discuss the moral and aesthetic implications of maintaining the association between the works and their place within the brutality of the Holocaust-or, conversely, the implications of ignoring this history.
Afterlives offers a thought-provoking investigation of the unique ability of art and artifacts to bear witness to historical events. With rarely seen archival photographs and with contributions by the contemporary artists Maria Eichhorn, Hadar Gad, Dor Guez, and Lisa Oppenheim, this catalogue illuminates the study of a difficult and still-urgent subject, with many parallels to today's crises of art in war.
And Then What? Inside Stories of 21st-Century Diplomacy
So much of modern-day diplomacy still takes place behind closed doors, away from cameras and prying eyes. So what does this vital role really look like in today’ s world – and what does it take to do it well? From 2009 to 2014, Cathy Ashton was the EU’ s first High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security, effectively Europe's foreign policy supremo responsible for coordinating the EU's response to international crises. Arriving in Brussels as a relative novice to international diplomacy, she faced the challenge of representing the views and values of 28 nations during one of the most turbulent times in living memory. Decades-old certainties were swept away in days. Hope rose and fell, often in a matter of hours. From the frozen conflict of Ukraine to the Serbia-Kosovo deal, there were challenges, failures and moments of success. She encountered dictators and war criminals, and witnessed the aftermath of natural disasters, military action, and political instability. Working with US politicians and counterparts including John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, and Bill Burns, she negotiated historic settlements, such as the Iran nuclear deal. An ‘ honest broker’ , she navigated the needs of opposing politicians to chart a path towards collaboration and stability. Now Ashton takes us behind the scenes to show us what worked and what didn’ t, and how it felt to be in ‘ the room where it happened’ . From Serbia to Somalia, Libya to Haiti, she offers essential insight into how modern diplomacy works, examining the tools needed to find our way through the many challenges we face today.
