Van Gogh in Auvers-Sur-Oise
A landmark publication tracing the final months of Van Gogh’s life.
Van Gogh in Auvers-sur-Oise: His Final Months offers a unique and impressive overview of the paintings and drawings that Vincent van Gogh created during the last seventy days of his life. He produced no fewer than seventy-four paintings and over thirty drawings in the course of the intense, productive period leading up to his self-inflicted death on July 29, 1890. While the Portrait of Dr Gachet, The Church at Auvers, and Wheatfield with Crows are numbered among his greatest masterpieces, this part of his oeuvre is otherwise less known?unfairly so?than the sunny landscapes he painted in the south of France.
The book follows the artist from his arrival in Auvers-sur-Oise,where he set to work full of hope and with fresh ambitions, through to his final weeks. Essays by leading Van Gogh specialists highlight his artistic ambitions and mental state during this final phase, his exploration of the Auvers landscape, the flower still lifes, the portraits, and the panoramic landscapes he painted there, the role played by his drawings, and his artistic reputation at the time of his death and in the years immediately afterward.
In addition to the Auvers paintings, the book is richly illustrated with drawings, sketches, historical photographs, and detailed maps of the places Van Gogh worked. Also featured are related works by contemporaries and predecessors whom he admired.

Max Ernst
With unparalleled artistic originality Max Ernst (1891–1976) transformed everything he touched. By pushing the boundaries and breaking loose from the confined view of the culture of his time, he became one of the most important figures of Dadaism and Surrealism. Driven by the counter-reaction to the horrors of World War I, he became a pioneer of the Dada movement. The closing of the famed Dada exhibit in Cologne for ‘obscenity’ led Ernst to spend the rest of his life in Paris, where he came in contact with the Surrealists.
Above all, Ernst stands out for his varied style and technique, having produced an oeuvre that reaches from paintings, drawings, and sculpture, across texts and stage settings to collage novels and the development of his own ‘frottage’ technique. During World War II, Ernst, like many of his colleagues, became an ‘undesirable foreigner’ and was forced to emigrate; however, he returned to France after the war. Continuing a career that spanned decades, in 1954 he received the Grand Prize for Painting at the Biennial in Venice.
This book is a journey through magic, vividness, and fantasy. It is a gateway into the intricate mind and world of Max Ernst.

A reformkor művészete: Festészet
Kötetünk a reformkori művészet - az uralkodó bidermeier és a mellette jelen lévő klasszicizáló és romantikus irányzatok - sokszínű törekvéseit tárgyalja. A képzőművészet új témákat, új műfajokat és új látásmódot hozott: a hétköznapi embert és környezetét állította a középpontba, stilárisan pedig szépítő és idealizáló mértékletesség, bensőségesség jellemezte. Egyfajta tömegkultúrát láthattunk benne, amely a polgári erények és az otthon kultuszának hírdetése mellett a nemzeti érzés erősítését is szolgálta. A kultúrális vívmányok nagyban meghatározták a 19. század képzőművészetét és a művészeti intézmények fejlődésének irányát is. Ennek a csendes, egyszerűségében megkapó, átélhető és szerethető festészetnek a változatosságát mutatjuk be érdekes történeteken és illusztrációkon keresztül.
Drawing in the Present Tense
A richly illustrated, up-to-the-minute overview of new approaches in drawing, set in the context of recent developments of other forms of contemporary art. This book explores the variety of ways in which contemporary artists from around the world have come to approach drawing as the primary, sometimes the sole, element of their practice, and one which is autonomous: an end in itself rather than a means to an end in another, more substantial medium. In an era of advanced technologies where image production has accelerated - potentially beyond the capacity of human attention - what values can be attributed to the slow, deliberate process of drawing by hand? The artworks featured in this volume are not confined to traditional tools - one can also draw on a computer, tablet or smartphone, and examples of digital drawing are incorporated into the narrative not as a separate category but as one medium among many.
Grouped thematically by specific approaches, including abstraction and figuration, nature and artifice, social observation and critique, with essays and feature spreads for each section, this selection of international artists of diverse backgrounds and experience includes not only recognizable names such as Michael Armitage, Camille Henrot, Robert Longo, Amy Sillman and Kara Walker, but also a host of emerging talents. Beautifully presented in a visually appealing and tactile format with the feel of an artist's portfolio, this is an inspiring overview of the best drawing practice today.
Rozpuštěno a zahuštěno

Stano Filko (Bilingual edition)
Stano Filko is considered as an influential utopian and polyartist, who understood art and life universally and cosmologically as a unity beyond geographical attributions of East and West. Filko was one of the most important representatives of the Central European neo-avant-gardes, whose work has remained current. Early on, he designed hybrid objects and environments, extending them into unfamiliar terrains with his basic conceptual approach. Again and again, the focus of the work changes: assemblages are followed by text-based works and performances that attempt to circumvent state repression, and later by large-scale gestural painting, characterized by artistic self-assertion, and finally by a final phase, which he dedicates to his increasingly complex "System SF". The publication approaches the multi-layered oeuvre from various perspectives and takes a fresh look at this exuberant oeuvre.
After achievements in the 1960s, Stano Filko (1937-2015) became persona non grata as a result of the Prague Spring, which led to a daring escape from the "Eastern Bloc", his participation in Documenta, and him eventually moving to New York. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, he returned to Bratislava and transformed the studio house Snezienková into a multi-dimensional, colorful "gesamtkunstwerk".
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, ukiyo-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, bound in the traditional Japanese fashion, 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 Japonisme and inspired Impressionist, Post-Impressionist and Art Nouveau artists alike, from Vincent van Gogh to James McNeill Whistler.
Monet/Rothko
This comparison of the works of Monet and Rothko provides exhilarating new insight on these pioneers of abstraction and masters of color.
Recent research on late impressionism has highlighted the surprising correspondences between the work of impressionist paragon Claude Monet and that of abstract painters such as Mark Rothko.
This book offers an unprecedented dialogue between the paintings of Monet and Rothko, two artists who explored the frontiers of abstraction. It explores the uncanny similarities between their works, painted almost half a century apart, as well as the significance of the differences between the master artists’ styles. Monet conveyed the immediacy of his impressions of nature, while Rothko plunged the viewer into the depths of colors that he superimposed and interwove.
And yet this book—originally conceived to accompany an exhibition at the Musée des Impressionnismes Giverny and illustrated with sixty chromatically organized reproductions—reveals an undeniable relationship between their pictorial universes, challenging the viewer’s perception of abstraction and modernity. This confrontation, contextualized through the analysis of renowned critics, sheds new light on the oeuvre of two of the greatest masters of painting and offers fresh insight into the essence of what makes their works so inherently original.
Mad about Painting
Best known for his iconic print Under the Wave off Kanagawa, also known as the Great Wave, Katsushika Hokusai was a revolutionary printmaker. His mastery of ukiyo-e in the nineteenth century has inspired generations of artists since, and his works exposed the world to the delicate beauty and power of Japanese woodblock technique. In addition to his remarkable artistic output, Hokusai was also a dedicated teacher who sought to pass down his deep understanding of color and painting to practicing artists through immensely detailed written tutorials.
Here, for the first time in centuries, are excerpts from his manuals, many available for the first time in English. It is an invaluable insight into the psyche of a true master, and a rare personal account of an artist's life during a fascinating period in Japan's history. Connecting Hokusai's prints from the Edo period to manga, author Ryoko Matsuba foregrounds Hokusai's contributions to Japanese creative expression from the 1800s to today.
Also included in this book: Vincent Van Gogh's letter about Hokusai's Great Wave and the contemporary artist Ikeda Manabu's concise observations about Hokusai's lasting influence.
Milton Glaser, POP
An overview of the work of illustrator and designer Milton Glaser during the 1960s and 70s From 1954, when he co-founded the legendary Push Pin Studios, to the late '70s, Milton Glaser was one of the most celebrated graphic designers of his day, whose work graced countless book and album covers, posters, magazine covers, and advertisements, both famous and little-known. Glaser largely defined the international visual style for illustration, advertising, and typeface design and interest in his legacy continues unabated, with modern creatives acknowledging his influence; for example, in 2014 Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner enlisted Glaser to design the ad campaign and branding for the show's final season. His renowned work garnered solo exhibitions at the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
Creator of the iconic 'I love NY' logo (featuring a heart symbol in place of the word 'love') and cofounder of New York magazine, Glaser received numerous accolades and lifetime achievement awards. Across thousands of works across all print media, he invented a graphic language of bright, flat color, drawing and collage, imbued with wit. This collection of work from Glaser's Pop period features hundreds of examples of his design that have not been seen since their original publication, demonstrating the graphic revolution that transformed design and popular culture.
Georgia O'Keeffe: To See Takes Time
A revelatory new volume on the American modernist's lesser-known works on paper, reuniting many serial works for the first time
Recalling a charcoal she made in 1916, Georgia O'Keeffe later wrote, "I have made this drawing several times--never remembering that I had made it before--and not knowing where the idea came from." These drawings, and the majority of O'Keeffe's works in charcoal, watercolor, pastel and graphite, belong to series in which she develops and transforms motifs that lie between observation and abstraction. In the formative years of 1915 to 1918, she made as many works on paper as she would in the next 40 years, producing sequences in watercolor of abstract lines, organic landscapes and nudes, along with charcoal drawings she would group according to the designation "specials." While her practice turned increasingly toward canvas in subsequent decades, important series on paper reappeared--including charcoal flowers of the 1930s, portraits of the 1940s and aerial views of the 1950s.
Published in conjunction with an exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, this richly illustrated volume highlights the drawings of an artist better known as a painter, and reunites individual sheets with their contextual series to illuminate O'Keeffe's persistently sequential practice.
Born in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986) first received critical attention when her breakthrough charcoal drawings were exhibited in New York in 1916. Two years later, she moved to the city to work full time on her art. Beginning in 1929, O'Keeffe spent summers in New Mexico, where she would relocate in 1949. The most famous female artist of her age, she thought of herself not as "the best woman painter" but as "one of the best painters."
Gauguin
Hailed as one of the most significant figures of early Modernism and at the same time condemned for his work and his morals – the discussion about Gauguin, his art and his character is still relevant today. Especially at a time where #MeToo is shedding new light on Gauguin’s relationship with adolescent girls and his share in colonialism in French Polynesia.
Gauguin – The Master, the Monster and the Myth is the first in-depth biography about the artist written by a Danish writer. The publication shares new insights about Gauguin – about his complex character as an artist and a human being. It challenges the traditional ideas we have about his life and work. Flemming Friborg unfolds the fascinating story about Gauguin’s life and the millieu of Impressionism that he was a part of but also at the same time distinguishing himself from. The book shows how his method and moral was bound in a carefully maintained, personal brand and therefore the master and the monster must be seen as inseparable – and therefore, as a result of this, Gaugain’s legacy and status as a genius artist remains unclear.
Cirque maçonnique

Kolekce obsahuje kresby i barevné reprodukce nejnovějších grafik, kolorovaných kreseb a vícebarevných litografií na zednářské téma. Slívův kreslený humor hovoří i beze slov univerzálním jazykem, přesto jsou textové části knihy (úvodní slovo velmistra i životopis autora) přeloženy do anglického jazyka. Kniha s mírně ironickou nadsázkou poodhaluje jindy skrytý svět zednářů a jejich tajemných symbolů.

Erik Binder. Nekonečný príbeh
Kniha Erika Bindera - Nekonečný príbeh zachytáva hravosť a nekonečnú nápaditosť jeho tvorby. Zo stoviek autorových kresieb, ktoré vznikajú len tak, akoby mimochodom, no sú neoddeliteľnou súčasťou jeho tvorby, vybrala teoretička umenia Alexandra Tamasová 150 diel, ktoré do knižnej podoby pretavil vynikajúci slovensky dizajnér Paľo Bálik. Kniha vyšla v limitovanom náklade 250 ks.
Erik Binder (1974, Hnúšťa-Likier) je jedným z najvýznamnejších umelcov strednej generácie na Slovensku. Študoval v ateliéroch grafiky a maľby na Vysokej škole výtvarných umení v Bratislave (pedagógovia Róbert Jančovič, Daniel Fischer) a na Akadémii výtvarných umení v Prahe (Vladimír Kokolia). Pracuje prakticky vo všetkých médiách od kresby, maľby, asambláže cez tvorbu objektov, inštalácií, environmentov až po prácu s nájdeným objektom, slovom, hudbou, videom a performanciou. Jeho tvorba sa pohybuje v intenciách neodadaizmu;
čerpá z dedičstva avantgárd, ale aj súčasných mestských subkultúr či východných filozofických a duchovných tradícií. Je známy spoluprácami v umeleckých dvojiciach alebo skupinách (Kunst-Fa s Gabikou Binderovou, Binderfresh s Viktorom Frešom a iné). Svoju tvorbu prezentoval na množstve kolektívnych aj samostatných výstav doma a v zahraničí. V roku 2021 jeho tvotbu prezentovala na samostatnej výstave SNG. Dvakrát bol nominovaný na Cenu Oskára Čepana. Žije, tvorí a troví v Bratislave, v mestskej časti Karlova ves.
