Marcel Duchamp


Genius. Anti-artist. Charlatan. Impostor! Since 1914 Marcel Duchamp has been called all of these. No artist of the 20th century has aroused more passion and controversy, nor exerted a greater influence on art, the very nature of which Duchamp challenged and redefined as concept rather than product by questioning its traditionally privileged optical nature. At the same time, he never ceased to be engaged, openly or secretly, in provocative activities and works that transformed traditional artmaking procedures. Written with the enthusiastic support of Duchamp's widow, this is one of the most original and important books ever written on this enigmatic artist, and challenges received ideas, misunderstanding and misinformation. With 172 illustrations in colour

Natures Palette


First published in 1814 and expanded in 1821 - long before the era of colour photography or print - Syme's edition of Werner's Nomenclature of Colours attempted to establish a universal colour reference system to help identify, classify and represent species from the natural world. Werner's set of 54 colour standards was enhanced by Patrick Syme with the addition of colour swatches and further references from nature, taking the total number of hues classified to 110. The resulting resource proved invaluable not only to artists but also to zoologists, botanists, mineralogists and anatomists. In Nature's Palette this technicolour trove has, for the first time, been enhanced with the addition of illustrations of the animals, vegetables and minerals Werner referenced alongside each colour swatch and accompanied by expert text explaining the uses and development of colour standards in relation to zoology, botany, minerology and anatomy. This fully realized colour catalogue includes elegant contemporary illustrations of every animal, plant or mineral that Syme cited. Readers can see for themselves Tile Red in the Cock Bullfinch's breast, Shrubby Pimpernel and Porcelain Jasper; or admire the Berlin Blue that Syme identified on the wing feathers of a Jay, in the Hepatica flower and in Blue Sapphire. Displays of contemporary collector's cabinets of birds, butterflies, eggs, flowers and minerals are interspersed at intervals throughout the compendium, with individual specimens colour matched to colour swatches. Still a much-loved reference among artists, naturalists and everyone fascinated by colour today, Werner's Nomenclature of Colours finds its fullest expression in this beautiful and comprehensive colour reference system.

100 Small Paintings


Tomas Rajlich is internationally recognized as a major figure in European painting. His monochromatic canvases based on the Minimalist grid are the result of meticulous research on the fundamental elements of painting. In the 100 small-scale paintings brought together in this booklet, he explores the combination of the impersonal, the gestural and the creative force of light; they are variations on the intensity, luminosity and facture of the paint, while clearly remaining a factual painting. Emerging in the early 1970s, he is often associated with Minimalism and Fundamental Painting a term coined by the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam in 1975. The current includes Robert Ryman, Robert Mangold, Agnes Martin, and the early years of Brice Marden and Gerhard Richter. An artist of uncompromising integrity, he maintains a position as one of the most significant living postwar and contemporary painters of his generation. His works have been the subject of major retrospectives and included in the collections of renowned museums worldwide, such as the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, and the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Tomas Rajlich patří k mezinárodně uznávaným nejdůležitějším osobnostem evropského malířství. Jeho monochromatická plátna založená na minimalistické mřížce jsou výsledkem důkladného výzkumu základních prvků malby. Na stovce maleb malého formátu, obsažených v této knize, zkoumá kombinaci neosobní, gestické a tvůrčí síly světla, jedná se o variace na intenzitu, svítivost a lom barvy, přičemž zcela zřejmě zůstávají věcnou malbou. Na počátku sedmdesátých let byl často spojován s minimalismem a fundamentální malbou pojmem, který zavedlo amsterdamské Stedelijk Museum v roce 1975. Tento proud zahrnuje osobnosti, jako byli Robert Ryman, Robert Mangold, Agnes Martin, v prvních letech též Brice Marden a Gerhard Richter. Rajlich si jako umělec nekompromisní integrity udržuje pozici jednoho z nejvýznamnějších žijících poválečných a současných malířů své generace. Jeho díla byla představena na významných retrospektivních výstavách a stala se součástí sbírek renomovaných světových muzeí, jako jsou Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen v Rotterdamu, Centre Georges Pompidou v Paříži či Museum of Modern Art v New Yorku.

Karel Vaňura 1937-2018


Karel Vaňura, malíř a sklář, je jedním z nejoriginálnějších tvůrců v českém umění 2. poloviny 20. století, dokládá to i tato monografie s množstvím reprodukcí obrazů, asambláží, skleněných vitrají a realizací v architektuře. Vaňura nepřijímal, respektive mechanicky nepřejímal dobové styly a směry, jeho tvorba je původní a autentická. Vaňura v mnoha dílech dosáhl originálních řešení, jak po vizuální, tak po technologické stránce; koncem šedesátých let byl označován jako jeden z nastupujících talentů československého umění, sklářského i malířského. Právě taková tvorba tvoří z českého umění druhé poloviny 20. století onu pestrou, lákavou směsici, která stále překvapuje a inspiruje a která ukazuje, že je stále co objevovat. Tato monografie je prvním komplexním zpracováním díla autora, který kromě vlastní tvorby jako uznávaný pedagog ovlivnil celé generace výtvarníků a který mnohokrát starost o práci ostatních kladl nad svou vlastní tvorbu.

PaloMacho


Palo Macho (1965) patrí k výrazným predstaviteľom súčasného umeleckého skla. Jeho špecifická pozícia v tejto disciplíne je v tom, že sa dlhoročne venuje maľbe na sklo. Prepája farby so sklom (jeho povrchom) na podobných princípoch, ako je tomu v klasickej maľbe. Nemá však k dispozícii plátno, ale sklenenú platňu, nie farby, ktorých tóny vidí okamžite, ale sklárske emaily, listre a drahé kovy, ktoré svoj výsledný odtieň vydajú až potom, čo prejdú taviacim a vypaľovacím procesom v sklárskej peci. Maľba má niekoľko vrstiev: podmaľba sa prekrýva s vnútornou maľbou i s maľbou na povrchu. Aj preto musí byť všetko vopred vymyslené, naplánované, overené. Neoddeliteľnou súčasťou je autorské gesto, dotyk ako stopa ruky, štetca, špachtle... Machove maľby na skle, kde sa hmota, objem a plocha skla spájajú s farbou a autonómnym maliarskym podaním, sú zvláštnym druhom maliarstva. K všetkým týmto výrazovým prostriedkom pristupuje ešte jeden aktívny a kľúčový prvok transparentnosť sklenej tabule a s ňou aj svetlo, ktoré je schopné meniť, dotvárať a oživovať vnímanie jeho diel. Druhé vydanie reprezentačnej monografie predstavuje Machovu tvorbu slovom a obrazom: jeho dielom vás sprevádzajú historičky umenia Katarína Bajcurová a Sylva Petrová, ktoré vo svojich textoch osvetľujú princípy jeho uvažovania a tvorby, ako aj miesto v širších medzinárodných kontextoch súčasného skla. Zásadne rozšírené a doplnené vydanie knihy prináša tiež text Meira Lubora Dohnala a rozhovor Petra Michaloviča s autorom o interpretáciách spoluprácach s inými významnými osobnosťami slovenského vizuálneho umenia (Ľudovít Fulla, Rudolf Fila, Jozef Jankovič, Ivan Csudai, Laco Teren, Jana Hojstričová, Svätopluk Mikyta) a ukážky spoločných diel. Zároveň mapuje aj najnovšiu tvorbu autora do roka 2020. Samostatná časť je venovaná fotodokumentácii dôležitých výstavných projektov. Knihu vydáva bilingválne (angličtina, slovenčina) vydavateľstvo Petrus v spolupráci s VŠVU a o.z. Atelier Studená10.

Vincent van Gogh: Matters of Identity


The revelation of a misidentified face in a photograph-once thought to be Vincent, now known to be Theo van Gogh-leads to a novelesque story of revised art history Full of surprising anecdotes, this book tells the story of the discovery in 2018 that one of only two known photographs of Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) is, in fact, of his brother, Theo. The detective-style narrative continues from there to Samuel Delsaut, who found two drawings attributed to Van Gogh in 1958. The archives of the Delsaut family revealed details casting doubt on the authenticity of these drawings, along with abundant correspondence between Samuel's son and the son of Dr. Paul Gachet, who cared for Van Gogh in Auvers-sur-Oise. A real-life lesson in historical criticism, this book, beautifully illustrated with reproductions of Van Gogh's work, has resonance with our contemporary predicament distinguishing information from rumor, journalism from propaganda.

Karol Ondreička


Hoci meno Karola Ondreičku staršieho rezonuje v povedomí kultúrnej verejnosti, s výnimkou výtvarného diela sa veľa dokladov o účinkovaní tohto umelca nezachovalo. Ondreičkovou tvorbou sa síce zaoberá každá štúdia alebo publikácia z dejín moderného umenia na Slovensku, ale vždy je to len niekoľko málo tých istých diel z jedného obdobia tvorby. Kurátori Aurel Hrabušický a Silvia Ilečková sa rozhodli predstaviť život a dielo maliara a grafika Karola Ondreičku podrobnejšie a odhaliť tak polohy, v akých tohto predstaviteľa slovenskej moderny nepoznáme.

The Picasso Connection


Without a doubt, Picasso is one of the most important and versatile artistic personalities of the twentieth century. But how does a body of work become so successful, and how does it wind up in major collections, museums, and exhibitions? Not infrequently, it is the courage of individuals who recognize genius in the works and advocate for them in the face of conservatism and criticism. In Picasso's case, this role in Germany fell to the Bremen art dealer Michael Hertz. His commitment in the post-war period is not only due to Picasso's exhibition at the documenta 3 in 1964, but also to the Kunsthalle Bremen, which has one of the most extensive collections of the artist's prints. This volume brings together the outstanding printworks, including lithographs, linocuts, and artist's books. Picasso's oeuvre of prints can be regarded as a fascinating collection, in which can be read the triumph of the affordable medium in post-war Germany, as well as the dealer's strong commitment.

Artemisia Gentileschi: The Language of Painting


An important reassessment of the later career and life of a beloved baroque artist Hailed as one of the most influential and expressive painters of the seventeenth century, Artemisia Gentileschi (1593-ca. 1656) has figured prominently in the art historical discourse of the past two decades. This attention to Artemisia, after many years of scholarly neglect, is partially due to interest in the dramatic details of her early life, including the widely publicized rape trial of her painting tutor, Agostino Tassi, and her admission to Florence's esteemed Accademia del Disegno. While the artist's early paintings have been extensively discussed, her later work has been largely dismissed. This beautifully illustrated and elegantly written book provides a revolutionary look at Artemisia's later career, refuting longstanding assumptions about the artist. The fact that she was semi-illiterate has erroneously led scholars to assume a lack of literary and cultural education on her part. Stressing the importance of orality in Baroque culture and in Artemisia's paintings, Locker argues for her important place in the cultural dialogue of the seventeenth century.

Dutch and Flemish Masterworks from the Rose-Marie and Eijk van Otterloo Collection


Highlights from one of the world's most impressive private collections of Dutch Golden Age masterpieces Over the past 35 years, husband-and-wife collector duo Rose-Marie and Eijk van Otterloo have acquired an unparalleled private collection of 17th-century Dutch and Flemish paintings, representing a selection of work by the Dutch Golden Age's most important artists. This volume compiles some two dozen masterworks from the van Otterloo Collection, which was donated by the couple to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston in 2017, as one of the most generous gifts in the museum's history. Included among these visually splendid paintings is one of the world's best-preserved Rembrandts, previously housed in a private collection: his 1632 piece Portrait of Aeltje Uylenburgh, which depicts its elderly sitter in dark robes and a delicate white millstone collar. Works by other Dutch Masters such as Cuyp, Rubens, Anthony van Dyck and Jan Brueghel the Elder round out the collection with a variety of pictorial subjects, from genre scenes to seascapes to still lifes. Accompanied by biographical and art historical information to provide context for the artists and their work, the series of lavish reproductions assembled in this volume invites readers to immerse themselves in the careful composition and beautiful light quality of this era's finest paintings.
