Point Blank
Point Blank (Quick Studies) is the first major publication of Bob Dylan's artwork in over a decade, featuring nearly 100 never-before-seen drawings.
Bob Dylan is a master at telling stories, creating moods and provoking feelings – not only in music and the written word but also in visual art, which he has been creating since the 1960s. This publication of his art features nearly 100 black-and-white drawings that were completed between 2021 and 2022 and served as the basis for his latest exhibition – also titled Point Blank – at London's Halcyon Gallery in early 2025.
The works vary between portraits, still lifes and landscapes: roller-skating lovers, a suit of armour, a suspension bridge, a karaoke singer, a roll of Scotch tape, a Parisian canal, a man with a crooked smile. Accompanying the artwork are short prose vignettes written by Eddie Gorodetsky, Jackie Hamilton and Lucy Sante that further enhance the images' evocativeness. Dylan's ability to find beauty and mystery in the seemingly mundane is one of his great gifts – and the gift he's continually given to the public over the years, including now with Point Blank.
Picturebook Makers: Part 2
Following the success of part one, twelve more world-class picturebook makers share their processes, inspire us with stunning illustrations, and demonstrate the immense creative potential of this unique and dynamic art form.
Far from being simple, picturebook creation can be a complex, lengthy and enigmatic process. Part two of the Picturebook Makers series once again gives voice to twelve much-loved contemporary picturebook artists. With great generosity, the international creators share their processes, inspirations, challenges, doubts, insights, and show us that "the unseen evolution of an idea is as interesting as the final result", as observed by Shaun Tan in part one of this series.
The intimate talks with the creators allow us to not only discover the myriad of ways in which the initial idea for a picturebook can arise, but also the wildly different creative processes which inform the development of each work. As Meghan Cox Gurdon observes in her review of Picturebook Makers in The Wall Street Journal: “There’s mystery in the process and, with luck, magic in the outcome.”
The Picturebook Makers series reveals the picturebook’s immense creative potential, celebrates outstanding international picturebooks and their creators, and constitutes an inspiring collection of picturebook knowledge for anyone interested in this unique and dynamic art form.
Featuring Carson Ellis, Axel Scheffler, Anna Höglund, Sydney Smith, Kristin Roskifte, André Letria, Issa Watanabe, Valerio Vidali, Anete Melece, Vincent Pianina, Marika Maijala, and Jimmy Liao.
Šťastnou cestu, kamaráde
Vzpomínkový knižní katalog na ostravsko-valmezského malíře Karla Noska (1991–2020). Nosek se uměl pohybovat na pomezí. Jeho malby někdy více, někdy méně insitní, byly dynamizovány pohybem, rychlostí, nebo expresivní gesticitou, nezřídka do obrazových ploch vmalovával textové poznámky. Rozhodně diváka nenechal klidným a pod rouškou vtipných narativů ukrýval kritické ostny. Malbou se tak pokoušel o angažovaný impakt témat podstatných pro celou společnost.

Hokusai. Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji
Mount Fuji has long been a centerpiece of Japanese cultural imagination, and nothing captures this with more virtuosity than the landmark woodblock print series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji by Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849). The renowned printmaker documents 19th-century Japan with exceptional artistry and adoration, celebrating its countryside, cities, people, and serene natural beauty. Produced at the peak of Hokusai’s artistic ambition, the series is a quintessential work of ukiyo-e that earned the artist world-wide recognition as a leading master of his craft.
The prints illustrate Hokusai’s own obsession with Mount Fuji as well as the flourishing domestic tourism of the late Edo period. Just as the mountain was a cherished view for travelers heading to the capital Edo (now Tokyo) along the Tokaido road, Mount Fuji is the infallible backdrop to each of the series’ unique scenes. Hokusai captures the distinctive landscape and provincial charm of each setting with a vivid palette and exquisite detail.
Including the iconic Under the Great Wave off Kanagawa (also The Great Wave), this widely celebrated series is a treasure of international art history. Among only a few complete reprints of the series, this XL edition pays homage to Hokusai’s striking colors and compositions with unprecedented care and magnitude. Bound in the Japanese tradition, Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji presents the original 36 plates plus the additional 10 later added by the artist.
The perfect companion piece to TASCHEN’s One Hundred Views of Edo and The Sixty-Nine Stations along the Kisokaido, this publication paints an enchanting picture of pre-industrial Japan and is itself a stunning monument to the art of woodblock printing.
Peter Július Kern - Maliar Liptova / Painter of the Liptov Region
Publikácia je katalógom k výstave v Galérii Nedbalka. Peter Július Kern zastáva významné miesto v dejinách slovenského výtvarníctva. Inšpiráciou mu bol predovšetkým samotný Liptov. Pre neho nepredstavoval neznámu krajinu, ktorú by chcel spoznávať – naopak, dôverne ju poznal a mal ju úprimne rád. Vďaka tomu majú jeho diela špecifický náboj. Nesnažil sa zachytiť krajinu čo najvernejšie, realisticky, ale usiloval sa preniesť pocit, náladu a emóciu, ktorú v ňom krajina vzbudzovala.

Haas Brothers - Uncanny Valley
The first comprehensive monograph on the daring, irreverent, and fantastical art of the Haas Brothers
Step into a world where design meets art in the most audacious, subversive, and captivating ways. Haas Brothers: Uncanny Valley is the much-anticipated first monograph on the daring, irreverent, and fantastical art of Niki and Simon Haas.
Known for their boundary-pushing creative practice, the duo work across the fields of art, craft, design, and technology with an approach that is at once conceptual, yet formal, and intellectual, yet playful.
The book accompanies the first major touring mid-career retrospective devoted to the Haas Brothers at the Cranbrook Art Museum in Michigan in Fall 2025, and highlights more than 100 of their most iconic works, from almost ridiculous, conversation-starting furniture to cheeky life-size sculptures.
Rich texts, including first-hand personal stories from the brothers and an interview by avant-garde mother-daughter artists Lita and Isabelle Albuquerque, complement the book’s vivid imagery.
Featuring a padded, hot pink cover, Haas Brothers: Uncanny Valley proves these iconoclastic visionaries are two of the most exciting and innovative figures in contemporary art and design.
Francis Ford Coppolas Megalopolis
In his debut graphic novel, legendary award-winning director Francis Ford Coppola brings Megalopolis to life with an all-new, reimagined story, adapted by Coppola with Chris Ryall and award-wining artist Jacob Phillips
Megalopolis: An Original Graphic Novel is a unique 160-page graphic novel that presents an alternate version of Francis Ford Coppola's visionary film, created and written by Francis Ford Coppola, adapted by Chris Ryall in collaboration with Coppola, and illustrated by Eisner Award-nominated cartoonist Jacob Phillips.
The City of New Rome must change, causing conflict between Cesar Catilina, a genius artist who seeks to leap into a utopian, idealistic future, and his opposition, Mayor Franklyn Cicero, who remains committed to a regressive status quo, perpetuating greed, special interests, and partisan warfare.
Torn between them is socialite Julia Cicero, the mayor's daughter, whose love for Cesar has divided her loyalties, forcing her to discover what she truly believes humanity deserves.
This graphic novel is a unique, standalone interpretation of the larger world Coppola created; or as Coppola himself put it, Megalopolis: An Original Graphic Novel is "a sibling of the film, rather than just an echo."

Nordic Noir
Showcases a remarkable collection of graphic art from the postwar period to the present
With many works published for the first time, this lavishly illustrated publication celebrates several Nordic artists who examine the fundamental themes of nature, the environment, identity, and heritage through visually arresting and beautiful prints and drawings.
The overwhelmingly spectacular landscape of the region features prominently in many works-dark fjords, vast uninhabited mountain ranges, and heavily forested areas provide a counterpoint to depictions of densely crowded, highly developed urban spaces viewed through the Nordic lens. A growing mood of melancholy and existential angst, emerging from the trauma of the Second World War and the uncertain threat of the Cold War, is often illustrated by a lone, brooding figure. Prints from the 1970s convey a deep criticism of US foreign policy and the Vietnam War but ironically adopt the iconography of American pop art with striking contemporary imagery and bold use of color. The Indigenous Sámi people living in the northern part of Scandinavia and Russia address issues such as their own heritage and identity within the Nordic world. Regional identity is also explored from pride in the artists' own native countries to coded references to their "Viking" past. The book also features works by contemporary Nordic artists who are constantly challenging the idea of the "perfect" Scandinavian social world often projected by these countries to outsiders.
Vermeer
The paintings of Johannes Vermeer of Delft are some of the most beautiful, even sublime, in the history of art. Yet like the life of Vermeer himself, they are mysterious and have for centuries defied explanation. Following new leads, and drawing on a mass of historical evidence, some of it freshly uncovered in the archives of Delft and Rotterdam, Andrew Graham-Dixon paints a dramatically new picture of Vermeer, revealing many of the painter's hitherto unknown friendships as well as his previously undetected allegiance to a radical movement driven underground by persecution.
He also vividly evokes the world of the Dutch Republic as it was in its so-called Golden Age. This was a watery world of fortresses and flood plains, taverns rocked by argument and cities stunned by devastating attacks and explosions: all linked by a network of canals where a uniquely efficient public transport system, operated by horse-drawn passenger barge, enabled people, goods and ideas to glide effortlessly from one place to another. The author sets Vermeer firmly in the context of his time, revealing the patterns of patronage that make sense of his work, and also exposing the difficulties posed by his home life, which was dominated by his Jesuit mother-in law and disturbed by the psychotic behaviour of her only son.
In the past Vermeer has been imagined as a remote and enigmatic figure, but he emerges from this new account as a man deeply engaged with his own society: well-travelled, a reader of books, a man personally connected to many of the most interesting people of his time, including merchants, philosophers, preachers, bankers and regents, as well as his childhood friend, a philanthropic baker named Hendrick van Buyten. Vermeer was also deeply affected by the struggles that shook his world, the Eighty Years War for Dutch independence and the yet more terrible Thirty Years War, which ravaged the neighbouring German lands and resulted in the deaths of millions. The author shows how he was moved to become a pacifist by such atrocities, and thereafter made many of his closest friends in the ranks of Europe's first peace movement. A further revelation is that Vermeer's closest collaborator and chief patron was a woman, as were many others in his immediate circle. These are all previously untold stories.
The many piercingly direct descriptions of Vermeer's pictures, which are the heart of the book, shed new light on the intentions of the artist. Nearly all of his best loved works, Graham-Dixon shows, were originally painted for a single significant location in Delft. In light of such discoveries every one of Vermeer's major paintings, including The Girl with a Pearl Earring, A View of Delft and The Milkmaid, are reassessed and their meanings rethought. As a result the two great unresolved questions about Vermeer - why did he paint his pictures, and what do they mean? - are persuasively answered here for the first time.

J. C. Volkamer. The Book of Citrus Fruits. 45th Ed.
Celestial Citrus
J. C. Volkamer’s 18th-century ode to the citrus fruit
Have you ever thought of citrus fruits as celestial bodies, angelically suspended in the sky? Perhaps not, but J. C. Volkamer (1644–1720) did—commissioning an extravagant and breathtaking series of large-sized copperplates representing citrons, lemons, and bitter oranges in surreal scenes of majesty and wonder.
Ordering plants by post mostly from Italy, Germany, North Africa, and even the Cape of Good Hope, the Nuremberg merchant Volkamer was a devotee of the fragrant and exotic citrus at a time when such fruits were still largely unknown north of the Alps. His garden came to contain a wide variety of specimens, and he became so obsessed with the fruits that he commissioned a team of copperplate engravers to create 256 plates of 170 varieties of citrus fruits, many depicted life size, published in a two-volume work. The first volume appeared in 1708, with the impressively lengthy title The Nuremberg Hesperides, or: A detailed description of the noble fruits of the citron, lemon and bitter orange; how these may be correctly planted, cared for and propagated in that and neighboring regions.
In both volumes, Volkamer draws on years of hands-on experience to present a far-reaching account of citrus fruits and how to tend them—from a meticulous walk-through of how to construct temporary orangeries, glasshouses, and hothouses for growing pineapples to commentary on each fruit variety, including its size, shape, color, scent, tree or shrub, leaves, and country of origin.
In each plate, Volkamer pays tribute to the verdant landscapes of Northern Italy, his native Nuremberg, and other sites that captured his imagination. From Genovese sea views to the Schönbrunn Palace, each locale is depicted in the same exceptional detail as the fruit that overhangs it. We witness branches heavy with grapefruits arching across a sun-bathed yard in Bologna and marvel at a huge pineapple plant sprouting from a South American town. The result is at once a fantastical line-up of botanical beauty and a highly poetic tour through the lush gardens and places where these fruits grew.
Few colored sets of Volkamer’s work are still in existence today. This publication draws on the two recently discovered hand-colored volumes in the city of Fürth’s municipal archive in Schloss Burgfarrnbach. The reprint also includes 56 later discovered illustrations that Volkamer intended to present in a third volume.
