Neo Rauch


The definitive monograph on the acclaimed German artist Neo Rauch, one of the most influential figurative painters working today Neo Rauch is one of the world’s most successful and popular contemporary artists. A leading force of the Leipzig School, the group of artists that emerged from East Germany in the early 1990s after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Rauch quickly established himself internationally through his large canvases featuring a crossover between Surrealism and popular imagery. Characterized by a bright acidic palette, Rauch’s ambiguous landscapes are populated by spatially connected, alienated figures conjuring a mysterious atmosphere of distorted nostalgia and failed Utopia. This career-spanning monograph was made in close collaboration with the artist, showcasing Rauch’s work alongside essays and texts that illuminate his work and career.

Souvenirs: From a Memoir


A selection from the memoir of Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun, the renowned eighteenth-century French portraitist and one of the most important women painters in art history In her memoir, Elisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun offers a candid and thoroughly enjoyable account of her life and art. She relates her encounters among the royalty and aristocracy she painted––including, most famously, her patron Marie Antoinette––and the effusive reception they extended to her across Europe. Forced to flee during the French Revolution, Vigée Le Brun traveled through Italy, Russia, Germany, and England, returning twelve years later to France under Napoleon I. These pages demonstrate her unflagging creativity during unstable times and her remarkable savvy. Her observations provide unique insight into the art world of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Europe, a time when women were rarely allowed success. In her introduction to this volume, the scholar Anne Higonnet conveys Vigée Le Brun’s unique position at a turning point in the art world, as well as the larger world beyond, and navigates in particular how one retroactively reconstructs a relationship to a world-changing revolution.

Hilma Af Klint - What Stands Behind the Flowers


A close look at a portfolio of forty-six botanical drawings by Hilma af Klint, and the abstract diagrams the artist developed to express the interconnectedness of the natural and spiritual realms. "I have shown," wrote the Swedish artist Hilma af Klint, "that there is a connection between the plant world and the world of the soul." Her Nature Studies portfolio (1919-20), recently acquired by The Museum of Modern Art, New York, comprises 46 sheets of exquisitely rendered botanical drawings. Documenting each plant's particular qualities along with Latin names, Swedish common names, and dates of observation, af Klint follows the typical format of a botanical reference book, known as a Flora; however, hers is a Flora of the spirit, a mapping of the natural world in spiritual terms that would stand alongside any scientific resource. Carefully drawn and vividly colored plants, flowers, and lichen are juxtaposed with geometric forms: a blooming sunflower is echoed by three nested circles, a central dot, a solid red line, a ring of points; a white narcissus is set against a pinwheel of softened primary hues; a cluster of budding branches is accompanied by checkerboard boxes of dots and stroke. Published in conjunction with the first exhibition of the rare portfolio, Hilma af Klint: What Stands Behind the Flowers presents the 46 botanical drawings alongside contextualizing works, as well as translations of her notes and previously unpublished texts from her own journals. An overview essay by curator Jodi Hauptman examines af Klint's strong connection to the natural and spiritual realms; texts by Ewa Lajer-Burcharth, Lena Struwe, and Laura Neufeld unpack the inspiration, imagery, and beliefs behind these drawings.

Hiroshige


Hiroshige was one of Japan's most talented, prolific and popular artists. Famed for his landscapes, he was also a great observer of nature with a visionary approach to colour and brushwork. His legacy continues to influence and inspire artists today. Over a career spanning four decades, the prolific Utagawa Hiroshige (1797-1858) produced thousands of landscape and nature prints, hundreds of paintings commissioned by the samurai elite, as well as many illustrated books. His work appealed to every stratum of society. While some of his landscape prints, such as Evening Snow - Kanbara and Ohashi - Evening Rain, are well-known examples of Japanese art, the full range of his output is less familiar. Hiroshige came from a samurai family, but he crossed social boundaries and devoted himself to depicting popular customs and the world around him. His work is distinguished by an air of gentle grace and decorum, perhaps arising partly from his steady temperament. His calm artistic vision sustained his contemporaries through the uncertainties of daily life and changing times. A great colourist, he stands out for discovering a subtle lyricism in the experience of travel, and a bond between people and the natural world. Featuring highlights from leading private collections of Hiroshige prints, alongside works by Hiroshige and other artists from the British Museum's outstanding collection of Japanese art and from other major collections, this lavishly illustrated new publication celebrates one of the world's most accomplished artists.

Impresionisté: Jejich životní příběhy, 3. vydání


Manet, Monet, Pissarro, Cézanne, Renoir, Degas, Sisley, Berthe Morisot a Mary Cassatt – dnes jsou tato jména legendami a jejich obrazy patří k nejdražším na světě. Ale za těmito oslnivými plátny se skrývaly životy plné skandálů, bojů a vášně. Byli to rebelové, kteří šokovali veřejnost svými malbami pradlen, tanečnic a jarních zahrad. Tvořili v době, kdy Paříž procházela velkolepou přestavbou pod vedením barona Haussmanna, a sami prožívali proměny stejně dramatické jako jejich umění. Sue Roe nás zavádí do ateliérů, kaváren a nočních barů, kde se rodila revoluce v umění i v osobním životě. Přátelství se mísilo se soupeřením, vášně s tragédiemi a úspěchy s naprostým odmítnutím. Po prusko-francouzské válce se snažili znovu postavit na nohy, drželi při sobě, hádali se, smáli i trpěli. Tento fascinující, intimní příběh odhaluje impresionisty nejen jako génie se štětcem v ruce, ale i jako milence, odpadlíky, vizionáře – a hříšníky, kteří změnili dějiny umění.

Libero


Podnětem ke vzniku této knihy, která dalece přesahuje obvyklé pojetí katalogu, byla výstava v Liberci v roce 2024 kurátorovaná Luďkem Lukuvkou. Z iniciačního setkání vznikla nakonec odvážná přehlídka malby, kresby a osobité animace, namísto plánované typografie. František Štorm (*1966) patří k předním světovým typografům-tvůrcům písma. Paralelně s jeho dlouholetým působením na poli užité grafiky vznikala vždy volná tvorba, zejména linoryty a kresby, ale v posledních letech také malby větších formátů. Kniha Libero zachycuje Štormovo tvůrčí vzepětí posledních let, ve kterém přirozené koexistují grafický design, knižní ilustrace a zakázky s volnou tvorbou. V té se stále více prosazují olejomalby a akvarely inspirované třeba jihočeskými rybníky nebo zážitky z cest. Šíři Štormova uměleckého záběru zachycuje Libero i ve výtvarném zpracování hudebních aktivit, díky nimž zasahuje velký okruh svých fanoušku. Čtenář se tak muže těšit z divotvorných, někdy až groteskně psychedelických děl v sousedství nápadité grafiky a typografie, jejíž tvarosloví je určujícím gestem autora.

David Hockney. My Window


'For me, it's really the joy of looking out into the world and getting this positive energy... It's opening up our vision, and how we look'—David HockneyWhen David Hockney discovered the iPhone as an artistic medium, it opened up entirely new possibilities for his art. He made his first digital paintings in spring 2009, describing the morning landscape in broad lines and dazzling colors directly on a display that offered subtle hues as unmixed expressions of pure light. Then in 2010, Hockney started working with an iPad, and the larger screen expanded his artistic repertoire and enabled an even more complex interplay of color, light, and line. Each image in this book captures a fleeting moment seen through a window in Hockney’s Yorkshire home: from vibrant sunrise and lilac morning sky to peaceful night-time impressions or the sudden arrival of spring. Fascinating details reveal drops on window panes, distant lights in the night, reflections on vases or an abundance of varied window-sill vegetation. In 120 paintings made between 2009 and 2012, selected and arranged by the artist himself, we experience the passage of time through the eyes of David Hockney. This artist’s book, which first appeared in an exclusive signed edition in 2020, now returns in a wallet-friendly pocket edition. So now is the perfect occasion to heed the advice of the Times critic regarding this book: “If you would like to be given a bouquet by David Hockney, here is your chance.”

Enter the Room


Publikace Enter the Room vychází u příležitosti stejnojmenné výstavy, kterou Galerie hlavního města Prahy pořádá v prostorách Domu U Kamenného zvonu (28. 3. – 14. 9. 2025). Její obsah je proto nejen zaměřen na popis vystavených děl či představení participujících autorů, autorek a kolektivů, ale také představuje celkový kurátorský koncept projektu. Pomyslné jádro knihy pak tvoří text Ondřeje Trhoně a Filipa Hauera, který přibližuje kritické strategie současné herní tvorby, a tím vymezuje i její pozici v širším rámci umělecké produkce. The publication Enter the Room coincides with the exhibition of the same name, organised by Prague City Gallery in the spaces of the Stone Bell House (28 March — 14 September 2025). Its content thus not only focuses on descriptions of the exhibited works or presentations of the participating artists and collectives, but also presents the entire curatorial concept of the project. The core of the book is formed by Ondřej Trhoň and Filip Hauer’s text, which outlines the critical strategies of contemporary game art and thus defines its positions in the broader context of artistic production.

A Bigger Message


The bestselling book of conversations between David Hockney and art critic Martin Gayford as they explore the nature of creativity. David Hockney’s exuberant work is highly praised and widely loved, but he is also something else: an incisive and original thinker on art. In this now classic book, filled with anecdote, insight, passion and wit, Hockney reveals the fruits of his lifelong meditations on the problems and paradoxes of representing a three-dimensional world on a flat surface. Compiled from a decade and a half of conversations with art critic Martin Gayford, it reflects a period in which Hockney relocated from Los Angeles to his native East Yorkshire. Their exchanges communicate the immense delight and inspiration that Hockney finds in the changing seasons and natural splendours of this sparsely inhabited corner of England – a delight that is, in the words of Margaret Drabble, ‘an invitation to us all to look better, see better, enjoy more’.

How to Be Avant-Garde


The strange story of the twentieth-century artists who sought to destroy art by transforming it into the substance of everyday life “Art has poisoned our life”, proclaimed Dutch artist and De Stijl co-founder Theo van Doesburg. Reacting to the tumultuous crises of the twentieth century, especially the horrors of the First World War, avant-garde artists and writers sought to destroy art by transforming it into the substance of everyday life. Following the evolution of these revolutionary groups, How to Be Avant-Garde charts its pioneers and radical ideas. From Paris to New York, from Zurich to Moscow and Berlin, avant-gardists challenged the confines of the definition of art along with the confines of the canvas itself. Art historian Morgan Falconer starts with the dynamic Futurist founder Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, whose manifesto extolling speed, destruction and modernity seeded avant-gardes across Europe. In turn, Dadaists Hugo Ball and Emmy Hennings sought to replace art with political cabaret and the Surrealists tried to exchange it for tools to plumb the unconscious. He guides us through the Russian Constructivists with their adventures in advertising and utopianism and then De Stijl with the geometric abstractions of Piet Mondrian. The Bauhaus broke more boundaries, transmuting art into architecture and design. Finally, the Situationists swapped art for politics, with many of their ideas inspiring the 1968 Paris student protests. How to Be Avant-Garde is a journey through the interlocking networks of these richly creative lives with their visions of a better world, their sometimes sympathetic but often strange and turbulent conversations and their objects and writings that defied categorisation. “Art has poisoned our life”, proclaimed Dutch artist and De Stijl co-founder Theo van Doesburg.

Rembrandt. The Complete Paintings


The Dutch Golden Age of painting spawned some of history’s greatest artists and artisans, but few can boast the genius and legacy of Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn (1606–1669). Despite never leaving his native Netherlands, Rembrandt projected his oeuvre past the boundaries of his own experience, producing some of art’s most diverse and impactful works across portraiture, biblical, allegorical, landscape, and genre scenes. In all their forms, Rembrandt’s paintings are built of intricacies?the totality of each subtle facial wrinkle, gaze, or figure amounting to an emotional force that stands unmatched among his contemporaries and artistic progeny alike. Each work is imbued with feeling. Biblical scenes, like Bathsheba at her Bath, become vehicles for meditations on human longing, probing depths beyond that which is canonized in scripture or depicted in other representations. His portraits, be them of wealthy patrons or tradesmen, communicate the essence of an individual through fine demarcations, their faces bathed in an ethereal light against darkened earthtones. Perhaps most striking, his series of self-portraits is a triumph of the medium; beginning in his youth and spanning until a year prior to his death, Rembrandt’s self portraiture is an intimate glimpse into his lifelong process of self-reflection. This XL monograph compiles all 330 of Rembrandt’s paintings in stunning reproductions. From Belshazzar’s Feast to The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp, we discover Rembrandt’s painted oeuvre like never before.

Výtvarnú dráhu Daniela Szalaia (1964) sleduje galéria od jeho nástupu v 90. rokoch 20. storočia. Jeho diela predstavila na dvoch výstavách. Prvýkrát prezentovala pastely zo série Hebrejskej abecedy (1999) a druhýkrát výber z kresieb a diel „transplant artu“ – prác na röntgenových snímkach (2014). V rámci tejto originálnej autorskej techniky, od roku 2002 vznikajú objekty a inštalácie so silným existenciálnym nábojom – ktoré sú utkané z pásov röntgenových snímkov. Nedávna retrospektíva (2024) načrtla výtvarnú dráhu autora od študentských čias, po jeho aktuálne obdobie – vo svojej žánrovej rozmanitosti. Dostali v nej priestor práce z oblasti textilu, maľby, kresby, objekty a inštalácie z „transplant artu“ – či novšie koláže s ekologickou témou. Katalóg výstavy predstavuje svojrázny profil výtvarníka-pedagóga, ktorý odráža symbiózu jeho profesionálnej a výtvarnej dráhy.
