The Amorous Heart
The symmetrical, exuberant heart is everywhere: it gives shape to candy, pendants, the frothy milk on top of a cappuccino, and much else. How can we explain the ubiquity of what might be the most recognizable symbol in the world?In The Amorous Heart, Marilyn Yalom tracks the heart metaphor and heart iconography across two thousand years, through Christian theology, pagan love poetry, medieval painting, Shakespearean drama, Enlightenment science, and into the present. She argues that the symbol reveals a tension between love as romantic and sexual on the one hand, and as religious and spiritual on the other. Ultimately, the heart symbol is a guide to the astonishing variety of human affections, from the erotic to the chaste and from the unrequited to the conjugal.

Lacná kniha Cirkus pictus (-50%)
Kniha sleduje reflexi cirkusového světa v českém výtvarném umění a literatuře. Zpřítomňuje fenomén cirkusu v českém prostředí od počátku 19. století do poloviny 20. století, a to v širších souvislostech evropského umění. Cirkus s typickými postavami artistů, klaunů a krotitelů exotických zvířat je svébytným světem, odlišným od každodenní reality. Divákům poskytuje nebývalou podívanou a nové smyslové zážitky. Vedle prací známých autorů, mezi něž patřili Bohumil Kubišta, Josef Čapek, Jindřich Štyrský, Vítězslav Nezval nebo Eduard Bass, představuje i díla pozapomenutých tvůrců. Řada umělců se přímo ztotožňovala s akrobaty či použila postavu smutného, melancholického klauna ke ztvárnění vlastních psychických stavů, případně jako prostředek metafory celospolečenského dění. Kniha přehledně zachycuje i historii cirkusu jako takového. Nápaditá grafická úprava pracuje s cirkusovými atributy. Kniha je uzavřena anglickým resumé.

Fontana
Debuting in Milan, Fontana settled in Paris in the mid 1930s, where he joined the Abstraction-Creation group and created expressionist sculptures in ceramic and bronze. He later moved to Argentina, where he developed his highly influential Technical Manifesto of Spatialism, a modernist marvel, characteristic of post-war innovation and fuelled by a forward-looking synthesis of art, technology, and science. With Spatialism, the artist sought to project color and form into spaces, most famously in his minimally ripped, or slashed canvases, such as his extensive Spatial Concept Waiting series.This dependable artist introduction follows Fontana on his personal and artistic journey to explore the evolution of his pioneering ideas as well as their remarkable legacy on conceptual and performance art which flourished in his wake.
Unpacking My Library
A captivating tour of the bookshelves of ten leading artists, exploring the intricate connections between reading, artistic practice, and identity
Taking its inspiration from Walter Benjamin’s seminal 1931 essay, the Unpacking My Library series charts a spirited exploration of the reading and book collecting practices of today’s leading thinkers. Artists and Their Books showcases the personal libraries of ten important contemporary artists based in the United States (Mark Dion, Theaster Gates, Wangechi Mutu, Ed Ruscha, and Carrie Mae Weems), Canada (Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller), and the United Kingdom (Billy Childish, Tracey Emin, and Martin Parr). Through engaging interviews, the artists discuss the necessity of reading and the meaning of books in their lives and careers.
This is a book about books, but it even more importantly highlights the role of literature in shaping an artist’s self-presentation and persona. Photographs of each artist’s bookshelves present an evocative glimpse of personal taste, of well-loved and rare volumes, and of the individual touches that make a bookshelf one’s own. The interviews are accompanied by “top ten” reading lists assembled by each artist, an introduction by Jo Steffens, and Marcel Proust’s seminal essay “On Reading.”
Death - A Graveside Companion
Death is an inevitable fact of life. Throughout the centuries, humanity has sought to understand this sobering thought through art and ritual. The theme of memento mori informs medieval Danse Macabre, the Tibetan Book of the Dead, Renaissance paintings of dissected corpses and "anatomical Eves," Gothic literature, funeral effigies, Halloween, and paintings of the Last Judgment. Deceased ancestors are celebrated in the Mexican Day of the Dead, while the ancient Egyptians mummified their dead to secure their afterlife. A volume of unprecedented breadth and sinister beauty, Death: A Graveside Companion examines a staggering range of cultural attitudes toward death. The book is organized into themed chapters: The Art of Dying, Examining the Dead, Memorializing the Dead, The Personification of Death, Symbolizing Death, Death as Amusement, and The Dead After Life. Each chapter begins with thought-provoking articles by curators, academics, and journalists followed by gallery spreads presenting a breathtaking variety of death-related imagery and artifacts. From skulls to the dance of death, statuettes to ex libris, memento mori to memorabilia, the majority of the images are of artifacts in the astonishing collection of Richard Harris and range from 2000 BCE to the present day, running the gamut of both high and popular culture.

Botero
Fernando Botero is an artist with his own style. For more than six decades, the Colombian's "Boterismo" technique has captured collectors, institutions, and public spaces worldwide with a unique, fleshy, overblown approach to the human body. Through these corpulent creations, Botero has become one of the most recognized artists from Latin America, his artworks displayed in prominent places around the globe, including Park Avenue in New York City and the Champs-Elysees in Paris. This TASCHEN Basic Art edition offers an essential introduction to this leading figure of figures in contemporary art. Tracing Botero's oeuvre from his earliest caricatures of animals through to recent large-scale bronze sculptures, the book examines the artist's diverse array of influences, from Paolo Uccello to Abstract Expressionism, and celebrates the wit, irony, insight, and critical acumen that round out his compositions, however absurd the proportions.

A magyar díszítő motívumokról
Ha szép hazánknak bérces felvidékére vet utazgató kedved vagy túrista sorsodnak jó csillaga, nem egyszer nyílik alkalmad gyönyörködnöd, különösen a régi udvarházaknál, azokban a bíborvörös vagy pázsitzöld selyemszállal és nehéz aranyhímmel díszes régi kézimunkákban, párnahaj-végeken vagy terítő széleken, melyeket anyáról leányra, kézről-kézre adva őriznek hagyományos kegyelettel, mutogatnak ősi büszkeséggel a családbeliek, s épp úgy megtalálod az íly terítőket a templomok régiségei közt, mint Úrasztala terítőket, sőt a templomok szent edényein, kelyhein is, a kehely kosarán, gombján vagy talpának formás kitöltéseiben is gyönyörködhetel ugyanazokban a régi virágokban.
A gyöngéd tündérujjak, melyek azokat a pompázatos régi magyar kézimunkákat hímezték, rég elporladtak a tűnő idő avatag századai ban. Azok a művészi mesterek is rég eltűntek, akik az aranykehely kosarán, talpán ama sodronyból szőtt girlandokat, virágokat ragyogó zománckitöltéssel ékesítették. De a régi virágok megmaradtak, vonalaik művészi s magyaros játékában, selyem vagy zománc színeiknek pompájában most is gyönyörködünk. Becsüljük is meg e selyem-, e zománcmustrákat, régi magyar ornamentikánknak ez ékességeit, e nemzeti kincseket.
Being Modern: MoMA in Paris
Published to accompany the first exhibition in Paris of highlights from The Museum of Modern Art, New York, Being Modern tells the stories behind 120 select artworks and design objects acquired by MoMA between the late 19th century and the present, providing a unique insight into the making of one of the greatest collections of modern and contemporary art in the world. Featuring work from all six of the Museum’s departments, from Edward Hopper’s House by the Railroad (1925) to the recently acquired original set of 176 digital emoji, the catalogue highlights the diversity and topicality of MoMA’s collection, and provides a fresh perspective on the modernist canon.
The book is organized chronologically according to the year each artwork entered MoMA’s collection. Short texts by museum curators accompany each work, providing an overview of its significance as well as a behind-the-scenes look at the acquisitions process, often an untold aspect of a museum’s history. Rather than presenting the collection as a flawlessly structured, stable entity, the book reveals its complex evolution and wide-ranging scope, demonstrating multiple ways of looking at MoMA’s multidisciplinary collection.
