Rokko Juhász - Kozmonomád
Katalóg výstavy performera, básnika a organizátora festivalov Rokka Juhásza (1963) predstavuje výber z jeho performerskej dráhy z uplynulých rokov (2013 – 2023). Jeho aktivity sa realizujú najmä na zahraničných intermediálnych platformách, projektoch a rezidenčných pobytoch. Všestranného tvorcu s viacerými identitami, možno považovať za duchovného dediča novozámockého rodáka, avantgardistu Lajosa Kassáka (1887 – 1967). Hlásil sa k nemu vo svojej tvorbe a v rôznych projektoch (Kassák mail art, 1987, Album Kassákov kód, 2007). V roku 1987 s Ilonou Németh, Ottom Mészárosom a Attilom Simonom, si založili skupinu STÚDIÓ ERTÉ, vytvorili platformu pre experimentálne žánre a organizovali medzinárodné festivaly intermediálneho umenia (1988 – 2018), ktoré vošli do dejín pod názvom Transart communication.
Katalóg glosuje jeho performerskú dráhu za uplynulé desaťročie. V tomto období sa zúčastnil diania na medzinárodnej scéne, ako etablovaný aktér performerskej špičky. Ťažisko výstavy tvorili ikonické performance (Ľudský hľadinomer, 2013, Budapešť; Kto si ty Piri? 2015 – 2023, Machu Picchu, Oaxaca, New York, Jeruzalem, Hongkong; Čakanie na zázrak, 2015, Jeruzalem, 2016 Budapešť; Transport času, 2016, Lijiang; Národné sny, 2016, Changsha; Niečo sa stane, 2018, Bratislava – Viedeň; Macondo I.- II., 2022, Praha, Jáger), v ktorých autor skúmal reakcie okolia, problém národnej či kultúrnej identity, zdieľania vedomostí a pocitov, zásadné otázky existencie, fungovanie pamäte, plynutia času – uvažoval o univerzálnych otázkach v univerzálnych kategóriách - v rámci vlastnej subjektívnej histórie, „stredoeurópanstva“ a cestovateľa. Od roku 2011 Rokko Juhász sa stal cestovateľom medzi svetmi - kozmonomádom – naplno rozvinul rolu sprostredkovateľa „kultúrnej misie“ a transkultúrneho dialógu. Prostredníctvom performance prepája rôzne krajiny s rôznymi spoločenským systémami a kultúrnymi tradíciami – od Číny, Thajska, Indie, Chile, Peru, Izrael, Bangladéš, Tajvan, Argentínu – po Mexiko – zdieľa vlastné skúsenosti a systém hodnôt.

The Hidden Language of Symbols
A stimulating narrative and reference resource that guides the reader through the most significant symbols from worldwide art history.
Why do we reach for the red rose on Valentine's day? Where did the owl gain its reputation for wisdom? Why should you never trust a fox? In this visual tour through art history, Matthew Wilson pieces together a global visual language enshrined in art: the language of symbols.
Symbols exert a strong hold in the image-saturated 21st century, and have done so for thousands of years. From national emblems to corporate logos and emojis, our day-to-day lives abound with icons with roots in the distant past. Expert art historian Matthew Wilson traces the often surprising trajectories that symbols have taken through history, from their original purposes to their modern meanings, identifying the common themes and ideas that link seemingly disparate cultures. Thus we meet the falcon as a symbol of authority from the ancient Egyptian pharaohs to the medieval aristocracy; the dog as stalwart companion from the classical era to the Renaissance; and the mythical phoenix as a symbol of female power connecting a queen in England with a goddess in China. We also see moments of radical reinterpretation and change: the transformation of the swastika from an auspicious symbol of hope to one of hate.
From Palaeolithic cave paintings to contemporary installations, Wilson deftly guides us through this world of symbols, showcasing their enduring ability to express power, hope, fear and faith, and to create and communicate identities, uniting - or dividing - the people that made them.

Art and Climate Change
A timely introduction to the fields of environmental art, art and ecology, art and climate change, art and activism, and art in the Anthropocene.
Global awareness of climate change is increasing, and the scientific evidence is incontrovertible: an environmental crisis is upon us. Art and Climate Change presents an overview of ecologically conscious contemporary art that addresses the climate emergency, as artists across the world call for an active, collective engagement with the planet, and illuminate some of the structures that threaten humanity's survival.
Across five chapters, curators Maja and Reuben Fowkes examine artworks that respond to the Anthropocene and its detrimental impact on our world, from scenes of nature decimated by ongoing extinction events and landscapes turned to waste by extraction, to art from marginalized communities most affected by the injustice of climate change. What guides the artists gathered together here is an ardent concern for the living, breathing subject of the Earth and all fellow terrestrials caught up in this fast-moving climate drama.

Honi bestiárium - 33 portré és pályakép a XX. századi magyar irodalomból
"Az írók kifejezetten érdekes figurák, egyik-másikuk pedig egyenesen panoptikumba illő alak. Márai szavaival: "a magyar bestiárium különösségei" ők. Kötetünk 33 magyar író portréját és pályaképét kínálja a huszadik századból. Jelentős és elfeledett, jellemes és állhatatlan, reakciós és világforradalmár, népies és urbánus, imponáló életművet megalkotó és ma már jószerint olvashatatlan literátorok egyaránt akadnak közöttük. Jellemzően olyan szerzők, akiket nem sorolunk a legnagyobbak közé - sőt a túlnyomó többségüket manapság még csak emlegetni sem szokás. Jóllehet irodalmi kultúránk gazdagságát és változatosságát, egyszersmind a század történelmi és (kultúr)politikai fordulatait segít érzékletessé tenni, ha megismerjük a mezőnyt az óriások körül. Róluk szól ez a könyv, és persze arról, hogy olvasni jó: nemcsak a felfedezésre érdemes (majdnem) remekműveket, de a meghatóan poros regényeket is.

Mnohé z Polákových divadelných činoherných inscenácií či už v Slovenskom komornom divadle Martin, Divadle ASTORKA Korzo´90 alebo v Slovenskom národnom divadle Bratislava patria do zlatého fondu slovenskej divadelnej kultúry a stali sa kultovými ako martinský Baal (1989) či Dotyky a spojenia (1988) a astokársky Les (1997).
Hlavnou tematickou líniou monografie je odkrývanie kompozičných postupov, prostredníctvom ktorých R. Polák vytvára mizanscény (kapitoly: Réžia ako res contextum, Réžia ako mizanscéna, Réžia ako res ideum, Francúzska dramatická klasika, Ruská prozaická a dramatická klasika, Diskurz rodiny, Slovenská prozaická a dramatická klasika Réžia ako res politicum, Televízna, filmová a rozhlasová tvorba a Réžia ako res scholarum.)

Osobitosťou monografie sú vsuvky vo forme úryvkov z Polákovej divadelnej, televíznej a básnickej tvorby, ktoré ho prestavujú v menej známej polohe.
Monografia obsahuje tiež 205 inscenačných fotografií z takmer všetkých jeho inscenácií doma a v zahraničí, v prílohe na DVD sú rozsiahle Súpisy nielen jeho umeleckých, ale aj odborných a vedeckých prác a ohlasov na ne, audiovizuálne a audiálne ukážky napríklad z prípravy inscenácií Les, Ruské denníky (2019), Scény zo života režiséra (Ingmara Bergmana) (2021), jeho teatrologické práce, významné rozhovory atď.

Josef Albers
Previously unseen early works and other unpublished material from the pioneering Bauhaus polymath
This publication considers Josef Albers' early development as an artist, beginning with the pre-Bauhaus years when he worked as an elementary school teacher in his native Bottrop in Western Germany, while sketching the landscape and architecture of his home town and studying courses in art by night. With a particular focus on works on paper, the book reveals not only the unappreciated naturalistic origins of his art, but also his ongoing interest in producing organic, surrealistic forms alongside the geometric abstraction for which he is best known. It presents dozens of prints, paintings and drawings from the first half of his career, as well as previously unseen photographs of the artist at work and on research trips to the ancient sites of Mexico where he found important sources of inspiration for his art and theories. With texts by two recognized Albers scholars, this volume offers a fresh and surprising view of a celebrated pioneer of modernism.
German-born artist Josef Albers (1888-1976) laid the foundations for some of the most important art education programs of the 20th century. In 1936, during his time working at Black Mountain College in North Carolina, he had his first solo exhibition in New York at J.B. Neumann's New Art Circle. In 1949, Albers left the college and began his famous Homage to the Square series. He taught at various institutions throughout America, including Yale University, New Haven. The Museum of Modern Art, New York, organized Albers' traveling exhibition in 1965 and a retrospective of his work was held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, in 1971. He died in 1976.
