Hiroshige. One Hundred Famous Views of Edo
Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) was one of the last great artists in the ukiyo-e tradition. Literally meaning "pictures of the floating world," ukiyo-e was a particular genre of art that flourished between the 17th and 19th centuries and came to characterize the Western world's visual idea of Japan. In many ways images of hedonism, ukzyo-e scenes often represented the bright lights and attractions of Edo (modern-day Tokyo): beautiful women, actors and wrestlers, city life, and spectacular landscapes. Though he captured a variety of subjects, Hiroshige was most famous for landscapes, with a final masterpiece series known as "One Hundred Famous Views of Edo" (1856-1858), which depicted various scenes of the city through the seasons, from bustling shopping streets to splendid cherry orchards. This reprint is made from one of the finest complete original sets of woodblock prints belonging to the Ota Memorial Museum of Art in Tokyo. It pairs each of the 120 illustrations with a description, allowing readers to immerse themselves in these beautiful, Vibrant vistas that became paradigms of Japomisme and inspired Impressionist, Post-Impressionist and Art Nouveau artists alike, from Vincent van Gogh to James McNeill Whistler.
Enchanted Forest: An Inky Quest and Colouring Book
This stunning new colouring book by Johanna Basford takes readers on a inky quest through an enchanted forest to discover what lies in the castle at its heart. As well as drawings to complete, colour and embellish, there are hidden objects to be found along the way including wild flowers, animals and birds, gems, lanterns, keys and treasure chests. Beginning at the entrance to the forest, the journey progresses through woodland, rocky caves and tree-lined mazes, over streams and a waterfall, across the trees tops, to finally reach the castle. Also hidden throughout the book are nine symbols. Readers must find all the symbols to unlock the castle door at the end of the quest and discover what lies within.
Trespass a history of Uncommissioned
The city as canvas: How self-expression, politics, and protest reclaim the streets Made in collaboration with its featured artists, Trespass traces the rise and global reach of graffiti and urban art, not just as a fringe visual movement but as a social phenomenon and central expression of youth. With an exclusive preface from Banksy, Trespass, now available as a popular Reader's Edition, presents the full historical sweep, international spread, and technical developments of the street art movement. Featuring key works by 150 artists, it connects four generations of street practitioners, incoporating both niche artists such as Miss Van and noteworthy names as Jean Tinguely, Keith Haring, Barbara Kruger, Jenny Holzer, Gordon Matta-Clark, Billboard Liberation Front, Guerrilla Girls, and Banksy. The book is set out in thematic chapters that engage with the central theme of 'trespassing'. While images of the works are allowed to speak for themselves, each theme is prefaced by a brief essay to provide thought-provoking context to the history, politics, protest, and illicit performance of self-expression in the social space. Writers include Anne Pasternak (director of public arts fund Creative Time) and civil rights lawyer Tony Serra. "
Sbírání umění: vášeň, investice a ...
Konzultanti v otázkách umění Thea Westreichová Wagnerová a Ethan Wagner s využitím svých rozsáhlých zkušeností, které nasbírali za léta spolupráce se sběrateli a uměleckými institucemi, nabízejí prostřednictvím deseti tematických kapitol zasvěcený, ale přitom laikům srozumitelný vhled to někdy trochu záhadného světa sbírání současného umění. Kniha Sbíraní umění: vášeň, investice a mnohem víc odpovídá na otázky, co je na sběratelství tak úchvatného a co tato vášeň sběratelům přináší emocionálně, intelektuálně a společensky. Autoři uvádějí, že nákup uměleckých děl a budování sbírky jsou – na rozdíl od kupování čehokoliv jiného – motivovány libovolnou kombinací takových faktorů, jako jsou předpokládaný investiční potenciál děl, jejich estetické hodnota, láska sběratelů k umění i jejich soutěživost, intelektuální náboj díla, adrenalin, posilování ega nebo společenského statusu či snaha vzbudit zájem okolí. Otázky otevírající každou z kapitol jsou přímé a jednoduché: týkají se věcí, které jsme o sbírání současného umění chtěli vědět, ale báli jsme se zeptat. Odpovědi jsou poučné, ale čtivé a obsahují konkrétní příklady z praxe obou autorů. Každou z otázek doprovází fotografie a doplňující texty, které čtenáři umožňují nahlédnout do zákulisí světa moderního umění – na výstavy, do depozitářů, na bienále, na umělecké veletrhy, do soukromí sběratelů – a nabízejí rovněž klíč k interpretaci konkrétních uměleckých děl. Autoři jsou zároveň vlivnými členy sběratelské obce i vnímavými pozorovateli dění v tomto světě. Díky tomu dokáží přiblížit historický a společenský kontext spletitého světa sběratelů umění. Proč lidé umění sbírají, co jim to přináší, kdo všechno může umění sbírat a jak správně budovat sbírku, jaké jsou vztahy mezi komerčními a veřejnými uměleckými galeriemi a institucemi, to jsou jen některá z témat, jimž se kniha Sbíraní umění: vášeň, investice a mnohem víc věnuje.

Art Nouveau
The Art Nouveau movement became an international phenomenon at the beginning of the twentieth century that ushered in the era of modernity in almost every aspect of cultural life. For decades critics have argued that Art Nouveau was not an artistic period in its own right, but an amalgam of artists and styles that served as a bridge between neoclassicism and modernism. In this comprehensive, authoritative and copiously illustrated book, art historian Norbert Wolf explores Art Nouveau as a logical outgrowth of the historic forces in which it arose. This book focuses on the movement's wide variety of applications and reclaims its prominence in the pantheon of modern art history. Chapters on aesthetics, spirituality and the cult of beauty offer luminous examples of works by Mucha, Gaudi, Hoffmann, Klimt, Horta, Munch and Tiffany, among many others. Wolf's text is both informed and accessible, providing an exciting narrative that brings the Art Nouveau movement into clear focus. Beautifully produced to appeal to a wide range of readers, this new edition gives one of the world's most popular styles the serious consideration it deserves.

Legenda V-klub
Véčko, hlavné mesto najlepšieho miesta vo vesmíre – našej mladosti. Večer čo večer to bolo miesto rituálneho postávania, sácania, hladkania, tárania, bozkávania, tancov a popíjania s fajčením. Vytváral sa véčkarsky parfum, ktorý bol namiešaný z vône umytých vlasov, červeného vína a šťastného potu. Boli sme to my, naše lásky, naše hry, straty a nálezy. Tá miestnosť je tam stále, ale Véčko zmizlo. Zmizlo spolu s nami. Boris Filan V-klub mal nejaké fluidum. Bolo to príťažlivé miesto. Tam mohol človek prísť a pozerať sa, ako druhí tancujú, potom zase mohol osloviť hociktoré dievča, sadnúť si s ním na schody a debatovať. Každý mohol ku každému prísť a porozprávať sa, vziať do ruky pohár. Takého miesta, akým bolo Véčko, dnes už niet. A vytratila sa aj atmosféra doby medzi mladými ľuďmi. Už to nie je také spontánne. Teraz, keď na niekoho zamierim fotoaparát, ten človek sa už kontroluje, má strach a cíti nedôveru. Všetko sa na niečo hrá. Vo Véčku sa nik na nič nehral. Peter Procházka
Upright Thinkers
In this fascinating and illuminating work, Leonard Mlodinow guides us through the critical eras and events in the development of science, all of which, he demonstrates, were propelled forward by humankind's collective struggle to know. From the birth of reasoning and culture to the formation of the studies of physics, chemistry, biology, and modern-day quantum physics, we come to see that much of our progress can be attributed to simple questions-why? how? - bravely asked. Mlodinow profiles some of the great philosophers, scientists, and thinkers who explored these questions - Aristotle, Galileo, Newton, Darwin, Einstein and Lavoisier among them - and makes clear that just as science has played a key role in shaping the patterns of human thought, human subjectivity has played a key role in the evolution of science. At once authoritative and accessible, and infused with the author's trademark wit, this deeply insightful book is a stunning tribute to humanity's intellectual curiosity.
