Tove Jansson
An appreciation of the life and art of Tove Jansson, creator of the Moomin books, which are adored by children and adults across the globe.
This book provides fresh insights and a deeper appreciation of the life and art of Tove Jansson (1914-2001), one of the most original, influential and perennially enjoyed illustrators of the 20th century. Jansson's flourishing Moomin books are examined in detail, as are her interpretations of such classics as Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and The Hunting of the Snark, and J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit.
Born in Helsinki among the Swedish-speaking Finnish minority, Jansson was brought up with a love for making art and stories in a supportive artistic family. Her first illustrated tales were published when she was fourteen years old. From a year later until 1953, she drew humorous and political cartoons as well as striking front covers for the satirical magazine Garm, responding to the Second World War and its aftermath as she developed from art student to painter and muralist, bohemian and lesbian. This book also explores the emergence of her Moomin world, appearing in her first children's book in 1945 and then in newspaper strips. These would lead to her being headhunted by the London Evening News, the world's biggest-selling evening paper, to write and draw a daily Moomin newspaper cartoon. This body of work is one of her great achievements, expanding her stories, settings and cast and invigorating her drawing and writing. Jansson also wrote many novels, documented here along with personal commentaries from her own writings.

Sculptures
Monografie mapuje tvorbu významného představitele generace českých sochařů, která na uměleckou scénu vstoupila na začátku jednadvacátého století. Lukáš Rais (1975) jako základní materiál používá železo, staré cisterny, kovové stojany lamp, ale hlavně nejrůznější trubky a roury. Ryze užitkové předměty proměňuje – a v podstatě recykluje - do podoby monumentálních soch a objektů, které se stávají součástí veřejného prostoru, architektury i krajiny. „Mají v sobě zakódováno něco, co je blízké i lidem, kteří jinak současné umění, zvláště abstraktně zaměřené, nevyhledávají. Především jsou však krásné,“ zamýšlí se v knize kritik umění Petr Volf. Jedinečné sochy jsou zachyceny na fotografiích Salima Issy a autorem grafická podoby publikace je Anna Issa Šotolová.
The Oil Painter's Color Handbook
"In The Oil Painter's Color Handbook, Todd Casey presents priceless information that every art school should teach and every art student should learn. The book breaks down the subject of color into useful pieces of knowledge that painters can put into practice. He analyzes color in terms of light, value, pigment, mixing strategies, palette arrangements, and painting techniques. Each topic is clearly and succinctly explained in the text, illustrated with captions, charts, diagrams, and finished paintings. By the end of the book, the reader will have a clear understanding of how realist painters and illustrators have used color through history." - James Gurney, artist and author
"This is the most impressive and complete book on color ever produced. It covers a wide range of color concepts, including some I'd never seen before. It digs deeply into color harmony, techniques, and has powerful examples to demonstrate every concept." - Eric Rhoads, Publisher, Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine
From Todd M. Casey, acclaimed artist and expert teacher, The Oil Painter's Color Handbook: A Contemporary Guide to color Mixing, Pigments, Palettes, and Harmony provides everything the oil painter needs to understand all aspects of color and empowers the reader to paint with confidence. As Casey notes, every artist and artist-in-training must learn how to "master the main concepts of picture-making: drawing, light, shadow, value, form, composition, and color."
A follow-up to the bestselling The Art of Still Life: A Contemporary Guide to Classical Techniques, Composition, and Painting in Oil (Monacelli, 2020), The Oil Painter's Color Handbook begins with an in-depth look at the use of color throughout art history. Casey then breaks down the process of understanding color into easily digestible lessons-each clearly explained and richly illustrated with both historic and contemporary paintings-so that the reader can learn progressively and layer more complex ideas as each skill is achieved.
Through clear instruction, step-by-step demonstrations, and challenging exercises, readers will learn to apply these techniques and concepts to their own painting. Once educated with this fundamental knowledge, as an artist, one can begin to find the balance between the science and emotional intuition in creating art. This informative and visually dynamic book will be accessible and appealing to artists, art students, and art instructors, to serious amateurs and hobbyists.
Scherzovci - Reštaurovanie rodinného portrétu
Publikácia sa zaoberá obrazom pôvodom talianskeho maliara Giacoma (Jacopa) Antonia Marastoniho, ktorý zobrazuje početnú rodinu bohatého obchodníka a prešporského mešťana Filipa Scherza v roku 1835 v Prešporku/Bratislave. Do správy Mestského múzea sa obraz dostal začiatkom 20. storočia, Galéria mesta Bratislavy ho získala prevodom v roku 1959.
Tento veľkorozmerný rodinný portrét patrí k ikonickým dielam svojho žánru v prostredí Uhorska. V Prešporku nebolo v čase jeho vzniku veľa kvalitných maliarov, pre samotného Marastoniho išlo tiež len o „krátky“ trojročný pobyt, keďže následne odišiel do Pešti s víziou založiť vlastnú maliarsku školu.
Publikácia prezentuje výsledky posledného náročného reštaurovania obrazu pracovníkmi galérie (Barbara Davidson, Anna Gregová) vrátane záverov chemicko-technologického výskumu, či IR reflektografie kolegov z partnerských inštitúcií. Súčasťou sú obšírne informácie o jednotlivých členoch zobrazenej rodiny, autorovi diela a bohatý obrazový materiál mapujúci celý proces reštaurovania unikátneho obrazu.
Figure Drawing Atelier
Figure Drawing Atelier offers a comprehensive, contemporary twist to the very traditional atelier approach to the methods that instruct artists on the techniques they need to successfully draw and ultimately paint the figure. The book offers art instruction, practical and progressive lessons on drawing the figure, and high-quality sketchbook paper in a beautiful package that includes blank pages for sketching and copying. Artists will then have a record of their process, like with a sketchbook, which many artists like to document and save.
In this elegant and inspiring workbook, master contemporary artist and author Juliette Aristides breaks down the figure drawing process into small, manageable lessons, presents them progressively, introduces time-tested principles and techniques in the atelier tradition that are easily accessible, and shares the language and context necessary to understand the artistic process and create superior, well-crafted drawings.
Atelier education is centered on the belief that working in a studio, not sitting in the lecture hall, is the best way to learn about art. Every artist needs to learn to master figure drawing. Ateliers have produced the greatest artists of all time—and now that educational model is experiencing a renaissance. These studios, a return to classical art training, are based on the nineteenth-century model of teaching artists by pairing them with a master artist over a period of years. Students begin by copying masterworks, then gradually progress to painting as their skills develop. Figure Drawing Atelier is like having an atelier in a book—and the master is Juliette Aristides, a classically trained artist and best-selling art-instruction author with almost rock star popularity in the contemporary world of representational art. On every page, Aristides uses the works of Old Masters and today's most respected realist artists to demonstrate and teach the principles of realistic figure drawing and painting, taking students step by step through the learning curve yet allowing them to work at their own pace. Unique and inspiring, this book offers a serious art course for serious art students and beginners alike.ok offers a serious art course for serious art students and beginners alike.

A monograph devoted to the creative work of Slovak artist, illustrator, painter, printmaker and postage stamp designer Igor Piačka.
This narrative and richly illustrated book maps the art and life of Igor Piačka (born 1962), with the stress on what he has done in the last decade. Illustrating books, painting, graphic prints, drawing, and designing stamps all interest a man whose work has brought him an international reputation and several major awards.
“Drawing is still the skeleton, the framework of my art, while painting is again the body and colour of the blood flowing through the veins,” captures Piačka in an interview the essence of his work. This conversation, and also other texts of well-known personalities in Slovakia’s art scene, provide readers with a closer look at the central ambition behind his art, presenting in a friendly and comprehendible way and yet at a high artistic level an unrelenting desire for what is so often lacking in the contemporary world – the aesthetics of human and especially feminine beauty. They are embodied in his own craftsmanship, developed in the crucible of Prof Albín Brunovský’s legendary department at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava, from where Piačka graduated.
The monograph has the potential to appeal to those who enjoy beauty in art and additionally anybody that admires the fine art produced in Slovakia and from Igor Piačka.

Frida Kahlo: The Painter and Her Work
This definitive appreciation of Kahlo's career features gorgeous full-page reproductions and insightful commentary to illuminate connections between the artist's life and work.
Few painters have been as celebrated and adopted into popular culture as Frida Kahlo-often to the detriment of her amazing achievements as a painter.
In this striking volume, one of the world's foremost scholars on Kahlo's art looks past the hype to focus on the artist's technique and motifs. Reproductions of Kahlo's paintings, along with selected details, are accompanied by illuminating observations about the role of physical and mental suffering in the creative process, Kahlo's mastery and reinvention of European traditions, and the wealth of coded and metaphorical elements hidden in so much of her work.
A rich and rewarding exploration of an artist all too easily reduced to a single narrative, this nuanced study is also an exquisitely produced celebration of Kahlo's genius.
Hlavu vzhůru! Furt se de!
Projekt seznamuje veřejnost s mnohovrstevnatou osobností malířky, ilustrátorky a designérky textilu Marie Fischerové-Kvěchové, která byla odvážnou a emancipovanou ženou, ale také milující matkou a duší vily Sakrabonie v Černošicích, kde se koncentrovalo společenství jedné z mnoha větví rodiny Fischerových. Ti vlastnili prosperující cihelnu v Libčicích nad Vltavou a byli v českých zemích prvními, kteří se na konci 19. století začali s velkým úspěchem věnovat výstavbě zděných továrních komínů a komínů s vodojemy. Masarykův citát Hlavu vzhůru! Furt se de! se stal nejen mottem této části projektu Průmysl a umění, ale zejména heslem rodiny v době, kdy po více než půlstoletí usilovné práce na poli stavebního průmyslu přišel únor 1948 a znárodnění podniků Fischerových. Vedle firem propadly státu i pozemky a mnohé obytné stavby a členové rozvětvené rodiny se museli s tímto převratem vypořádat, najít si jiné uplatnění a nové místo k životu. Marie Fischerová-Kvěchová se prosadila v prostředí do té doby převážně maskulinním jako aktivní žena a tvůrkyně národních hodnot. Multidisciplinární myšlení umělkyně propojovalo volné umění, ilustraci, knižní tvorbu a užité umění. Svoji tvorbu zasvětila třem hlavním tématům, k nimž se neustále vracela: přírodě, lidové kultuře a dětem. Její popularita jako ilustrátorky knih pro děti kulminovala na konci třicátých let a během druhé světové války. Po komunistickém puči v únoru 1948 nemohla veřejně prezentovat své dílo. Jako umělkyně spjatá s masarykovskou demokracií byla označena za vládní malířku z první republiky. Její knihy musely zmizet i z veřejných knihoven a antikvariátů. Přestože bylo vydávání knih s jejími ilustracemi s nástupem komunismu na dlouhá desetiletí přerušeno, její nesmírně bohatá ilustrátorská činnost měla velký ohlas a vliv na utváření estetického cítění dětí několika generací. V její osobnosti se zároveň zrcadlí principy otevřené Evropy a duchovní a demokratické hodnoty první republiky.
Umění dřeva
Další dřevěná kniha pana Patřičného – cesta dovnitř stromu i pod kůru člověka. Kniha popisuje jak využít obrazy ze dřeva a kresby ve dřevě ve výtvarné práci a jaký bonus mají sochy ze dřeva proti těm z jiných materiálů. Kromě uměleckých objektů na cca 150 barevných fotografiich, tu čtenář najde i kapitolu o autorské knize – ze dřeva, nic takového nikdo jiný nedělá. A poslední kapitola? To je úsměv a vtip ve dřevě, všichni to v téhle době potřebujeme jako sůl.
Olafur Eliasson, Experience
An updated and expanded edition of the acclaimed in-depth monograph on one of the most influential artists of our time
Conceived in close collaboration with the artist, this updated survey tracks Eliasson's artistic practice from the 1990s to the present day, including recent exhibitions at Tate Modern, London (In real life, 2019) and the Beyeler Foundation, Basel (Life, 2021).
Through hundreds of illustrations bracketed by writings on and by Eliasson, this book provides an unparalleled overview of his remarkably accessible output, from such large-scale interactive experiences as The weather project at Tate Modern, London (2003) to smaller, more delicate works on paper or made of glass, and includes photography, painting, and film.
Basic Human Anatomy
A comprehensive, yet flexible and holistic approach to the human body for artists, Roberto Osti s method of teaching anatomy is exhaustive, but never loses sight of the fact that this understanding should lead to the creation of art.
Basic Human Anatomy teaches artists the simple yet powerful formula artists have used for centuries to draw the human figure from the inside out. Osti, using the basic system of line, shape, and form used by da Vinci, Raphael, and Michelangelo, takes readers step-by-step through all the lessons needed in order to master this essential foundation skill. Organized progressively, the book shows readers how to replicate the underlying structure of the body using easy-to-understand scales and ratios; conceptualize the front and side views of the skeleton with basic shapes; add detail with simplified depictions of complex bones and joints; draw a muscle map of the body with volumetric form and realistic dimension; master the feet, hands, and skull to create realistic renderings of the human form; and apply a deeper knowledge of anatomy to finished drawings for more impact.
Oblaka něžného hněvu

Monet - The Triumph of Impressionism
No other artist, apart from J. M. W. Turner, tried as hard as Claude Monet (1840-1926) to capture light itself on canvas. Of all the Impressionists, it was the man Cezanne called "only an eye, but my God what an eye!" who stayed true to the principle of absolute fidelity to the visual sensation, painting directly from the object.
It could be said that Monet reinvented the possibilities of color. Whether it was through his early interest in Japanese prints, his time as a conscript in the dazzling light of Algeria, or his personal acquaintance with the major painters of the late 19th century, the work Monet produced throughout his long life would change forever the way we perceive both the natural world and its attendant phenomena. The high point of his explorations was the late series of water lilies, painted in his own garden at Giverny, which, in their approach towards almost total formlessness, are really the origin of abstract art.
This biography does full justice to this most remarkable and profoundly influential artist, and offers numerous reproductions and archive photos alongside a detailed and insightful commentary.
