Šumava patafyzická
Rozsahem nevelká, ale obsahem nabitá a na nejvyšší technické úrovni zpracovaná publikace je příkladem atypické výtvarné monografie, která není jenom prezentací výtvarníka Petra Faltuse a jeho nejnovějších pastelů, ale doplněním o jedinečné texty Karla Steigerwalda se stává plnohodnotnou knihou určenou nejenom k pouhému prohlédnutí. Dílo vzniklo opačným postupem, než je obvyklé: nejdříve vzniklo 53 kreseb a až posléze je patafyzickými povídkami "ilustroval" či "animoval" autor textu. Kniha je živoucím organismem, její obsah se přelévá z roviny výtvarné do literární a zase zpět, jedno se navzájem doplňuje s druhým a příslibem neobyčejného zážitku je také hmatový prvek na obálce... Ale nejpodstatnějším aspektem, jenž autoři zdůrazňují při každé příležitosti, je ten, že kniha vznikala a mohla vzniknout pouze za předpokladu vzájemného a obohacujícícho přátelství všech zúčastněných i jejich partnerů, potomků a domácích či jiných zvířat.

Portraying Children
Portraying people is undoubtedly one of the most difficult aspects of drawing. Expressions, movements, emotions and gazes add a series of challenges not present in still life and landscape techniques. In addition, the scant number of books specifically about drawing children leave many of the particularities related to the portrayal childhood unresolved.
This book fills this void, offering a method for acquiring a good command of painting and illustration techniques. Using live models, photographs, videos, drawings of faces and entire bodies, either posing or simply naturally, the book explains step by step the specific characteristics of drawing children. Through an introduction to proportions and by teaching readers how to sketch more freely, it captures both the physical and psychological transformation in an exercise in introspection and memory of one's own childhood.
The book is intended for illustrators and lovers of drawing, parents and relatives, and anyone else who wants to capture the memorable, enchanting and fleeting moment associated with childhood. Because, in reality, drawing is learning how to see, how to understand and how to love.
Giovanni Bellini: The Art of Contemplation
Following the arc of Bellini's career, from his early devotional paintings to his later, occasionally secular works, this book offers an in-depth appreciation of the Venetian master who dominated the Early Renaissance. Featuring nearly every extant Bellini work, as well as those of his contemporaries, this book brims with gorgeous Renaissance art. Author Johannes Grave focuses on some of the artist's greatest works including Allegoria Sacra, the Brera Pieta, and the altarpiece of San Giobbe-to explore how Bellini excelled in tempera before mastering oil painting.
Grave discusses how Bellini's precise lines, his delicate facial expressions, and the subtle effects of light and shadow were used in his religious paintings as well as his portraiture and late mythological depictions. This book examines Bellini's life, including his complex relationships with his father Jacopo, his brother Gentile, and his brother-in-law Andrea Mantegna. It considers the original contexts of Bellini's works, and elucidates the ways in which these paintings were meant to be perceived.
The book also links Bellini's devotional paintings with the poetic creations of his pupil Giorgione. An important contribution to the scholarship of Renaissance art, this masterful book reaffirms Bellini's status as one of Venice's greatest painters.
Utagawa Kuniyoshi
Recognized as one of the most interesting and vibrant artists of the Edo period, Utagawa Kuniyoshi (1797-1861) is a major exponent of ukiyo-e. His fame is tied to the series of polychrome xylographs that illustrate the 108 heroes from the novel Suikoden (Brigands), a late-18th-century bestseller in China and Japan that described a band of brigands who defend those oppressed by injustice and government corruption. The book conjures imagery of violent, powerful warriors with muscular tattooed bodies--imagery that today inspires manga, anime, tattoo artists and illustrators across the world. Kuniyoshi embraced the genre of warrior prints, but he was also interested in portraits of female beauties, kabuki actors, landscapes, children and ghosts, another greatly admired genre in Japan. Nonetheless, his name is above all associated with Arcimboldo-like composite figures, figures within figures and parodies of stories and battles. His images are fantastical, baroque, rich in color and detail, with imposing characters and dynamic actions. This book surveys the work of a versatile and intriguing figure whose impressive technique birthed a school that continued for generations.

Pablo Picasso, Vášeň a vina
Kniha La Suite Vollard (Vášeň a vina) Pabla Picassa, je vydána při příležitosti stejnojmenné výstavy, která se bude konat v Museu Kampa od 15. září 2018 do 15. ledna 2019. Kniha představuje rozsáhlý grafický cyklus La Suite Vollard ze sbírek prestižního Musea Královny Sofie v Madridu. Picassova práce, jak sám přiznává, je deníkem, který odráží jeho životní příběh. La Suite Vollard hovoří o bouřlivém období rozchodu s jeho první ženou ruskou baletkou Olgou Chochlovou a o vášnivém vztahu k mladičké Marii-Therese Walter, ale jsou také úvahami o smyslu umění. Jednotlivé grafické listy pojaté v neoklasickém stylu odrážejí Picassovy erotické a umělecké posedlosti, manželské potíže a stále temnější politickou situaci v Evropě. V návaznosti na tuto grafickou sérii vzniklo nejslavnější Picassova dílo Guernica.
