German Expressionism


In a time like our own, where a young generation feels a great need to change our way of living, thinking and organizing ourselves, the publication on the artist group Brücke feels particularly relevant. These young artists also wanted to renew art and life in the German Imperial Empire and have ever since inspired younger generations of artists. In bright paintings with simplified forms and large fields of color they expressed rather their feelings than an external reality. They were interested in topics like man and nature, the naked body, portraits, self-portraits, the merging of life and art and life in the vibrant metropolis of Berlin. The catalogue discusses among others how we today perceive and can take on challenging themes like inspiration from African and Oceanian colonial cultural objects and of very young female models. Artists include Erich Heckel, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Max Pechstein, Karl Schmidt-Rottluff.

Neprakta


Kniha Neprakta je vydána k výročí 100 let od narození výtvarníka, ilustrátora a karikaturisty Jiřího Wintera (1924–2011), který zaujímá výrazné místo ve výtvarném umění druhé poloviny 20. století. Dosavadní publikace shrnující Nepraktova díla přinášely výhradně výběr kresleného humoru a jen okrajově se dotkly ostatní, neméně obsáhlé tvorby. Tato publikace se věnuje nejen pohledu na výtvarné dílo, ale i teoretickému zařazení „fenoménu Neprakta“ do souvislostí společenských, historických a uměleckých. Zahrnuje Winterovo dílo do kontextu doby a v několika odborných studiích popisuje vývoj české, respektive československé karikatury ve druhé polovině 20. století a přibližuje také úzkou spolupráci Wintera se všemi jeho námětáři. Pod kolektivním pseudonymem NEPRAKTA se zpočátku skrývali dva umění milovní přátelé a sběratelé starožitností, pánové Bedřich Kopecný – námětář a Jiří Winter – výtvarník. Dvacetiletá plodná a úspěšná spolupráce skončila úmrtím Bedřicha Kopecného. Novým námětářem zavedené firmy se poté stal Miloslav Švandrlík, autor románu Černí baroni. Za třicet let spolupráce ilustroval Jiří Winter Neprakta téměř stovku Švandrlíkových knih a vytvořil přes 20 000 kreslených vtipů ve velké většině na Švandrlíkovy náměty. Během celkem padesáti let Jiří Winter publikoval 35 000 kreseb a vtipů. Toto rozsáhlé dílo bylo uznáno světovým rekordem se zápisem do knihy rekordů. Díky přístupu editora k obsáhlému archivu originálních kreseb, modernímu polygrafickému zpracování a reprodukování ve špičkové kvalitě a velkém formátu nabízí kniha unikátní souhrn Nepraktovy tvorby. Vůbec poprvé je tak doloženo výjimečné období, kdy se česká „karikatura“ měnila v „cartoons“. Reprezentativní monografie význačného tvůrce české karikatury na knižním trhu dosud chyběla. Obsáhlá publikace si klade za cíl zmapovat jednotlivá témata Winterovy výtvarné činnosti. Kromě známých kreseb jsou v knize i díla méně známá či dosud nepublikovaná. Jedná se o jubilejní tisící knihu vydanou v Nakladatelství Epocha.

Adolf Kašpar - Mistr knižní ilustrace (1877 - 1934)


Tato velká monografie, má jednoduchý, a přitom nesmírně ambiciózní cíl – komplexně představit rozsáhlé Kašparovo knižní ilustrační dílo, které dosud v této podobě chybělo. Představuje nikoli výběr, ale soubor všech Kašparových knižních ilustrací, které byly až dosud rozptýleny v třiaosmdesáti knihách. Na více jak 3000 ilustracích, jimiž doprovodil většinu zásadních románů a sbírek povídek českých autorů 19. a počátku 20. století – Němcové, Jiráska, Raise, Nerudy, Vrchlického a dalších, vykreslil náladu národní historie i tehdejší přítomnosti, které mají také pro současnost historický a dokumentační význam. Kašparovo dílo, jež je uměleckou kritikou považováno za pokračování a završení mánesovské a alšovské tradice českého výtvarnictví, bylo hojně oceňováno již za jeho života. Přáním je, aby tato kniha znovu přilákala zájem odborné obce i široké veřejnosti ke Kašparově knižní ilustrační tvorbě.

Banksy - set


Len máloktorý súčasný umelec vzbudzuje takú zvedavosť ako Banksy: britský tvorca street artu, ktorý sa stal globálnou celebritou, povýšil prácu so šablónami a s farbami v spreji na spoločenskú a politickú výpoveď presahujúcu svet umenia. Jeho diela sa nečakane objavujú v rôznych kútoch sveta a upozorňujú na utrpenie a nespravodlivosti, ktorými sú obvykle vystavení tí najslabší a prehliadaní. Vo výpravnom boxe sú tri knihy s Banksyho najznámejšími dielami rozdelenými podľa jeho obľúbených motívov: potkany a opice ako symbol súčasného sveta, deti ako najzraniteľnejší príslušníci našej komunity a na okraji spoločnosti stojaci obyvatelia džungle veľkomiest. Kvalitné reprodukcie sprevádza komentár, ktorý uvádza umelcovu prácu do kontextu našej doby. Banksyho diela nemusia osloviť úplne každého, ale isté je, že jeho posolstvo nemožno ignorovať.

Hockney's Pictures


A celebration of sixty years of extraordinary creativity. 'A compelling narrative of the workings of a curious, intelligent, visually inventive mind at work' Art Quarterly 'From between the covers springs all the brightness and energy of the prolific output of this most exuberant and yet sensitive artist' The Times The story of Hockney is one of passion: passion for seeing, passion for telling, passion for images. But to these should be added passion for life. Hockney's art is a celebration of what it is to be alive. All his pictures - sometimes tender, as when he draws close friends and family; sometimes playful, as in his paintings of lazy, carefree days by the pool; sometimes awe-inspiring, as with his monumental images of the Grand Canyon - convey what it means to be in the world, to see it, to move in it, to love it. This constant exploration of how to communicate such experiences and perceptions through art emerges with particular clarity in this visually dense volume, now updated with a new final chapter that focuses on his prolific recent work in series across various media, including the iPad. Charting almost sixty years of extraordinary creativity, the book is arranged thematically to show the evolution and diversity of Hockney's prolific paintings, drawings, watercolours, prints and photography. It also features quotes from the artist that illuminate the passion and deep thought behind his work. Hockney's Pictures celebrates the artist's lifelong experiments in ways of looking, seeing and depicting.

Ťapák


Monografická publikácia venovaná tvorbe slovenského sochára Jána Ťapáka. Výpravná, bohato ilustrovaná publikácia mapuje vyše tri dekády výtvarnej tvorby a života významného slovenského sochára Jána Ťapáka (nar. 1962). Kniha nie je koncipovaná ako tradičná akademická monografia, ale ako púť časom, počas ktorej sa zlomky poznania skladajú do celkového obrazu životnej tvorby. Ján Ťapák, absolvent katedry sochárstva na Vysokej škole výtvarných umení v Bratislave, vždy radšej modeluje hmotu do priestoru, akoby ju odoberal z kameňa. Vytváranie sochy z ničoho mu je oveľa bližšie. Jeho bronzové kompozície majú energiu umeleckej myšlienky, ale sú aj lyrickým vyznením intímnych príbehov. Listovanie v publikácii navodzuje atmosféru príjemných stretnutí v ateliéri Jána Ťapáka, počas ktorých vznikali spomienky a úvahy, keď sa autor, kunsthistorik a publicista Ľudovít Petránsky pozeral do minulosti, aby lepšie spoznal sochára a premeny často nepokojného sveta. Monografia má potenciál okrem obdivovateľov slovenského výtvarného umenia osloviť všetkých milovníkov krásy. Publikácia je dvojjazyčná – slovensko-anglická. *** Monograph highlighting sculptures created by Ján Ťapák of Slovakia. This narrative, richly illustrated publication maps the three decades of the art Slovak sculptor Ján Ťapák (born 1962) has created and celebrates his life. Instead of a traditional academic monograph, this book was conceived to describe a pilgrimage through time and to piece together fragments of knowledge into an overall picture of his life’s work. Ján Ťapák graduated from the Department of Sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava and in his professional career he has always expressed a preference for shaping sculpture that occupies a physical space as if it were carved from stone. Sculpting something out of thin air resonates more with him. His bronze compositions have both the energy of artistic self-expression and the lyrical tone of intimate stories. Leafing through the book evokes the enjoyable atmosphere that was generated when author, art historian and publicist Ľudovít Petránsky met at Ján Ťapák’s studio. As they look back at Ťapák’s career and life, there is an opportunity to get better acquainted with him and the transformations he has undergone in an often-troubled world. Besides admirers of art in Slovakia, this monograph has the potential to appeal to anyone who loves the beauty that can be found in art. The book is written in Slovak and English.

Paul Cadmus - 49 Drawings


A lavish portfolio of never-before-seen erotic drawings by celebrated twentieth-century American artist and gay icon, Paul Cadmus Paul Cadmus entered the art scene in the 1930s with paintings of dream-like urban demi-mondes: roiling tableaux of beatniks, sailors, and prostitutes. Undergirding his work has always been the artist’s masterful draftsmanship, seen in hundreds of drawings of nude male models, chief among them his long-time lover and muse, Jon Anderson. Paul Cadmus: 49 Drawings collects these never-before-seen drawings for the first time, presenting a singular body of work that exemplifies Cadmus’s classical proficiency, channelled into an obsessive emphasis of his model’s erotic zones. Packaged in a stamped portfolio envelope, this is a landmark collection of queer art by a twentieth-century master, its images complemented by an introduction by Graham Steele that details the significance of Paul Cadmus to his career in the art world, plus an essay by leading queer-art scholar Richard Meyer, as well as a momentous discussion with painters Nash Glynn, Doron Langdon, and Oscar yi Hou, moderated by curator and critic Jarrett Earnest. This elegant book, sumptuously produced to reflect the eminence of this newly revealed body of work, and the intimacy of its subject matter, represents a rare exposé of a significant body of unknown work from a major twentieth-century artist, and a substantial contribution to the study and legacy of queer art.
