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.

Výpravná, bohato ilustrovaná publikácia mapuje tvorbu a život slovenského výtvarníka Igora Piačku (1962), pričom dôraz je na poslednej dekáde. Knižná ilustrácia, maľba, grafika, kresba, známková tvorba – to všetko sú záujmové oblasti autora, ktorý sa svojou tvorbou presadil aj v medzinárodnom kontexte a získal viacero ocenení. „Kresba je stále skeletom mojej tvorby, ale maľba je zase telom a farba krvou v cievach,“ hovorí v rozhovore Igor Piačka, čím vystihol podstatu svojej tvorby. Tento rozhovor, ale aj ďalšie texty známych osobností čitateľom približujú ústrednú ambíciu tvorby Igora Piačku – divácky zrozumiteľne a na vysokej výtvarnej úrovni predstaviť neutíchajúcu túžbu po tom, čo nám tak často chýba v súčasnom svete: estetiku ľudskej, najmä ženskej krásy. Autorská estetika je zdôraznená vysokým remeselným majstrovstvom, ktorá je umelcovi ako absolventovi legendárneho oddelenia prof. Albína Brunovského na VŠVU v Bratislave vlastná. Monografia má potenciál okrem obdivovateľov slovenského výtvarného umenia a tvorby Igora Piačku osloviť všetkých milovníkov krásy.

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.

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.

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.

Druhou částí knihy je vědecký katalog prací. Katalogová část zahrnuje 260 katalogových hesel náhrobků s kompletní fotodokumentací, přepisem a analýzou náhrobních nápisů a s popisem různých druhů materiálů, z nichž jsou náhrobky vytvořeny. Téma má výrazný mezinárodní aspekt – kniha se zapojí do mezinárodního bádání o evropské sepulkrální skulptuře a seznamuje odbornou veřejnost s dosud neznámými díly této oblasti.

Drawing for Illustration


An instructive book that examines the practice of drawing for illustration through case studies and sketchbooks, written by one of the world's foremost experts and teachers on the subject. This essential handbook explores the subject of drawing for illustration in-depth, with an emphasis on drawing as a skill and fundamental language that every illustrator should master. It aims to encourage students through examples and case studies, by showcasing the often-unseen world of draughtsmanship that underpins the finished graphic. From book illustration to graphic novels, caricatures to commercial design, it draws on contemporary sketchbooks, projects and historical examples to make the connection between the practice of drawing from observation and drawing from imagination. Martin Salisbury sets out by explaining the fundamentals of this exciting discipline, before outlining the basic principles of line, tone, composition and colour through inspiring examples. Different approaches to drawing including anecdotal, sequential and reportage are examined, to enable students to acquire their own personal visual language. Interviews with illustrators also provide invaluable insight into the creative process, as they outline their challenges and motivations, and what drawing personally means for them. Packed with visual inspiration, this book features detailed analysis of works by key illustrators from past and present including George Cruikshank, Egon Schiele, Ronald Searle and Sheila Robinson through to Laura Carlin, Alexis Deacon and Isabelle Arsenault, looking at the differing roles drawing plays in their particular illustrative languages and how styles have changed over time.

Anish Kapoor: Painting


A massive appraisal of a hitherto little-known aspect of Kapoor’s prodigious output This 400-page volume is the first publication to explore in depth the painting of British artist Anish Kapoor (born 1934). It offers a unique insight into a language that has increasingly been a focus over the last 10 years, but which has also been an integral part of his studio practice since his career began in the late 1970s. In works that sit on the cusp between abstraction and figuration, Kapoor reveals a desire to go beyond the surface that has been so famously explored in his international beloved sculptural works. Image, surface, space and time appear in sometimes delicate but often violent symmetry. With essays from such as acclaimed thinkers as Julia Kristeva and Homi K. Bhabha, with whom the artist has collaborated in articulating his distinctive visual language, this extensive survey traces the trajectory that has led Kapoor to his boldest body of work to date.

Piet Mondrian


Pivotal in modern art's move towards abstraction, Piet Mondrian's oeuvre is extraordinarily versatile and complex. Not only did he paint and draw, he also wrote extensively about his thoughts and theories on art and life. Moving from traditional Dutch landscape painting to a pronounced rhythmic framework focusing on compositional structure rather than naturalistic representation, Mondrian was profoundly impressed by contemporary culture. Thus, he was not only inspired by the pattern of the extensive Dutch canal system, but also by the rhythm of jazz and the foxtrot. Demonstrating the impact of his oeuvre, Yves Saint-Laurent's famous "Mondrian Dress" even made him a fashion icon posthumously. Celebrating the 150th anniversary of his birth, Ulf Kuster entertainingly leads through well- and lesser-known aspects of Mondrian's life and work offering inspiring impulses for reflection and further engagement with the fascinating artist.
