Maestro Václav Zapadlík
Nové rozšířené vydání knížky Maestro Václav Zapadlík nabízí to nejlepší z tvorby světově uznávaného malíře, kterého obrazy fascinují dokonalými historickými automobily. Při sestavování publikace jsme se snažili zařadit díla všeobecně známá, ale i méně známé kresby tak, abychom zachytili co nejširší záběr autorovy tvorby.
Václav Zapadlík je nepochybně nejvýznamnějším současným výtvarníkem s motoristickou tematikou, a to nejen u nás, ale hlavně v zahraničí. Automobily, motocykly, letadla, lokomotivy a scenérie kolem nich překvapují svou propracovaností a precizním vyobrazením. Historické automobily okouzlují svou krásou a atmosféra obrazů nás dokáže vtáhnout do světa elegance a šarmu, ale i vzrušení při automobilových závodech. Završením a zaslouženým oceněním celoživotního díla Maestra Zapadlíka se stalo pozvání České pošty k vytvoření série známek s obrazy historických vozidel nejslavnějších českých i světových značek. Touto nádhernou prací rozšířil okruh svých obdivovatelů o milovníky těch nejmenších uměleckých děl - filatelisty
Viktor Frešo
Monografia prináša svieži a nekonformný pohľad na tvorbu Viktora Freša (1974), multimediálneho umelca, ktorého dosiaľ mediálne najznámejšou realizáciou je socha Pičus (2015). Frešovo pätnásťročné pôsobenie na výtvarnej scéne komentujú kurátori Katarína Bajcurová, Vladimír Beskid, Lucia Gavulová a Peter Tajkov. Ich texty dopĺňa bohatý obrazový materiál, dokumentujúci Frešove maľby, konceptuálne nemateriálne, prevažne textové výstupy, fotografie a v neposlednom rade aj sochy a objekty. Dvojjazyčná, anglicko-slovenská publikácia vyniká odvážnym a originálnym prístupom v rámci grafického spracovania.
Modern Art in Detail
Great works of art cannot be fully understood in a single encounter: to revisit and reconsider art again and again throughout one’s life is to be richly rewarded with an ever-deepening appreciation and insight. Similar benefits come from analysing a work of painting, sculpture or installation in detail. Modern Art in Detail: 75 Masterpieces spotlights the finer points that even connoisseurs may miss, casting light upon minutiae that a quick glance will almost certainly fail to reveal. These include subtle internal details, and the technical tricks employed by the artist to achieve particular effects. The book also looks at the themes and external and personal factors influencing the creation of an artwork – everything from global political events, to groundbreaking movements such as Cubism, Futurism and Primitivism, and even scientific and mathematical theories, which are often of great relevance.
The book examines 75 works of modern art, from Vincent van Gogh’s The Church at Auvers-sur-Oise (1890), to Paula Rego’s Visions (2015) , deftly charting the shift from the supremacy of artistic technique to the more recent dominance of the idea (or concept) behind the artwork itself.

Introduction • 75 artworks
Blake, Dante
Celebrated around the world as a literary monument, The Divine Comedy, completed in 1321 and written by Dante Alighieri (1265–1321), is widely considered the greatest work ever composed in the Italian language. The epic poem describes Dante’s journey through Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven, representing, on a deeper level, the soul’s path towards salvation.
In the last few years of his life, Romantic poet and artist William Blake (1757–1827) produced 102 illustrations for Dante’s masterwork, from pencil sketches to finished watercolors. Like Dante’s sweeping poem, Blake’s drawings range from scenes of infernal suffering to celestial light, from horrifying human disfigurement to the perfection of physical form. While faithful to the text, Blake also brought his own perspective to some of Dante’s central themes.
Today, Blake’s illustrations, left in various stages of completion at the time of his death, are dispersed among seven different institutions. This TASCHEN edition brings these works together again, alongside key excerpts from Dante’s masterpiece. Two introductory essays consider Dante and Blake, as well as other major artists who have been inspired by The Divine Comedy, including Sandro Botticelli, Michelangelo, Eugene Delacroix, Gustave Doré, and Auguste Rodin.
With an intimate reading of Blake’s illustrations, and many close-ups to allow the most delicate of details to dazzle, this is a breathtaking encounter with two of the finest artistic talents in history, as well as with such universal themes as love, guilt, punishment, revenge, and redemption.
Charlotte Salomon. Life or Theatre
When German artist Charlotte Salomon (1917–1943) handed her gouache series Life? or Theater? over to a friend, she beseeched him to “take good care of it, it is my entire life.” A few months later, the five-months pregnant Charlotte was picked up by a Gestapo truck, deported to Drancy, and then on to Auschwitz, where she died upon arrival at the age 26.
The work Salomon left behind is, in a very real sense, her piece de résistance – in her own words, “something wildly eccentric.” A cycle of nearly 1,300 autobiographical gouaches, it combines creative force with pioneering personal narrative into one shattering document of self-expression.
Divided into three sections, the gouaches unveil a vivid self-portrait spanning across all facets of Charlotte's existence: from a complicated family life, marked by the suicides of nearly all female relatives; growing up in Berlin; her close relation to singing teacher Alfred Wolfsohn; the rise of the Nazis; to her exile to France in 1939. Throughout, the artist challenges these destructive forces by deploying playful pseudonyms and fantastical elements alongside emotional candor, remarkable observation, and a meticulous visual memory. Her film strip-like sequences are interspersed not only with words but also musical suggestions, making Life? or Theater? the storybook for a whole musical, years before the heyday of that genre.
Without comparison, the gouaches are a triumph of personal truth and individual expression. Published here with a selection of the 450 most important pieces, Life? Or Theatre? is an unrivaled opus magnum from a great and ambitious artist, dark with her early death, but luminous with her precision, her lyricism, and her courage.
Jasper Johns
Jasper Johns is one of the most important artists of our time. This book offers the first comprehensive study of his art since 1980, a period in which the artist has made some of his most moving and challenging work. Looking primarily at Johns’s paintings and works on paper, and drawing on conversations with the artist, Fiona Donovan provides the context for this later work and explores its visual and iconographic complexity. In the years 1980–2015, Johns’s imagery ranged from investigations of his own earlier subject matter and personal history to a much broader humanist discourse. Spiritual, moral and sexual themes run through his work, as well as ruminations on memory and mortality. Donovan also examines associations between poetry and Johns’s art as well as the artist’s absorption with appropriation and abstraction of images taken from such diverse sources as Grünewald’s Isenheim Altarpiece, Cézanne, Picasso, and the Vietnam War photographer Larry Burrows.
Johns’s abiding curiosity is reflected in his stylistic changes, and the shifting themes, motifs and moods of his work are all underpinned by his exceptional painterly skill and interest in process, as demonstrated in the magisterial works presented here, from ‘The Seasons’ and the ‘Catenary’ paintings to the more recent series, ‘Regrets’.
Jasper Johns: Pictures within Pictures provides a unique opportunity to view and further understand the compellingly beautiful and intriguing works by an artist who continues to be at the forefront of American art.

Lacná kniha Dali, The Wines of Gala (-25%)
Hot on the heels (or lobster claws) of the best-selling Salvador Dalí phenomenon, Les dîners de Gala, TASCHEN presents the artist’s equally surreal and sensual viticulture follow-up: The Wines of Gala. A Dalínian take on pleasures of the grape and a coveted collectible, the book sets out to organize wines “according to the sensations they create in our very depths.” Through eclectic metrics like production method, weight, and color, the book presents wines of the world in such innovative, Dalíesque groupings as “Wines of Frivolity,” “Wines of the Impossible,” and “Wines of Light.”
Bursting with imagery, the book features more than 140 illustrations by Dalí. Many of these are appropriated artworks, including various classical nudes, all of them reconstructed with suitably Surrealist, provocative touches, like Jean-François Millet’s The Angelus, one of Dalí’s favorite points of reference over the decades. Dalí also included what is now considered one of the greatest works from his late “Nuclear Mystic” phase, The Sacrament of the Last Supper (1955), which sets the iconic biblical scene in a translucent dodecahedron-shaped space before a Catalonian coastal landscape. Dalí was by this stage a devout Catholic, simultaneously captivated by science, optical illusion, and the atomic age.
The first section is dedicated to “Ten Divine Dalí Wines,” an overview of 10 important wine-growing regions, while the second develops Dalí’s revolutionary ordering of wine by emotional experience, instead of by geography or variety. Rather than any prescriptive classification, it’s a flamboyant, free-flowing manifesto in favor of taste and feeling, as much a multisensory treat as a full-bodied document of Dalí’s late-stage oeuvre, in which the artist both reflected on formative influences and refined his own cultural legacy.

Renoir
The joy that permeates Renoir’s paintings was created by a complicated person. Even close friends and family members were often baffled by the multi-faceted and contradictory artist. Having known Renoir for over twenty years, Camille Pissarro complained in a letter to his son Lucien: ‘Nor can I understand Renoir’s mind – but who can fathom the most changeable of men?’
Here, the world’s leading authority on the life and work of Auguste Renoir presents an intimate biography of this great Impressionist artist. Her narrative is interspersed with over a thousand extracts from letters by, to, and about Renoir, of which 452 come from unpublished letters. Through these words, the reader gains direct contact with Renoir, as an artist, friend and father. Renoir became hugely popular despite great obstacles: thirty years of poverty followed by thirty years of progressive paralysis of his fingers. Close friendships with scores of people who helped him with money, contacts and companionship enabled him to overcome these challenges to create more than 4,000 optimistic, life-affirming paintings. Barbara Ehrlich White brings a lifetime of research to bear in her biography to provide an unparalleled and intimate portrait of this complex artist.

Motion Graphics
Motion graphics -- a digital technique that combines the language of traditional graphic design with the creative visual language of film and animation -- has become a fast growing area within the practice of graphic design. With the function of storytelling, it evokes a strong emotion and creates a connection between the message and the watcher.
Futurism
Inspired by the development of Cubism, the Futurist movement was founded in 1909 by Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, along with painters Giacomo Balla. Umberto Boccioni, Carlo Carra, and Gino Severini. The school, which celebrated technology and the mechanical era, was comprised of painters, sculptors, designers, architects, and writers. Motion and machines were two main themes of this movement, which attacked the bastions of establishment and sparked controversy by its glorification of war and support of Fascism. Experimenting with movement, and speed, and abstract light and color, the Futurists developed approaches and techniques that were revolutionary at the time, and in retrospect one can see that the Futurists influenced other avant-garde art movements, most notably Russian Constructivism. Artists featured: Giacomo Balla, Umberto Boccioni, Anton Giulio Bragaglia, Carlo Carra, Tullio Crali, Fortunato Depero, Gerardo Dottori, Leonardo Dudreville, Virgilio Marchi, F.T. Marinetti, Enrico Prampolini, Luigi Russolo, Antonio Sant'Elia, Gino Severini. Mario Sironi, Ardengo Soffici.
Josef Žáček - Anticorps
Tvorba malíře Josefa Žáčka má hluboce sociální a politický kontext. V současnosti kriticky reaguje na skryté i otevřené manipulace masmédií, otázku terorismu a na situaci vyvolanou uprchlickou krizí v Evropě.
V publikaci ANTICORPS mimo jine umělec ukazuje svět jako každodenní mechanismus lidského konání, stereotypů, standardních úkonů.
Krásný sloh a Jižní Tyroly
Vztah nástěnné a deskové malby Jižních Tyrol k malbě krásnoslohé, zvláště bohemikální, je téma v literatuře mnohokrát zmiňované, dosud však nepodrobené pečlivé analýze. Ne zcela vyjasněný zůstává i původ krásnoslohých motivů ve sledované oblasti. Kromě Prahy a odtud odcházejících umělců mohla iniciační úlohu sehrát i jiná středoevropská centra, zejména Salzburg, Vídeň či jižní Německo. Kniha je členěna do šesti hlavních kapitol. Po nastínění tématu se čtenář ve stručnosti seznamuje s politickými dějinami oblasti a jejich vztahem k zemím Koruny české. Další tři kapitoly jsou věnovány nástěnné malbě, rozdělené podle místních škol a dílen. První z nich představuje dílo mistra Václava, v pramenech označovaného mimo jiné jako „Watzlab Kunstl von Behm“, jenž s jistotou prošel školením v Čechách. Další kapitola je věnována tzv. bolzanské škole. Třetí část se zabývá nástěnnými malbami spojovanými s malíři z Brunecku (tzv. brixenská škola). Poslední kapitola je věnována deskovým obrazům relevantních pro dané téma.
Odkaz v znaku svetla
Publikácia mapuje umelecký vývoj aj životný príbeh Márie Evy Trajterovej od ranných prác po súčasné realizácie. Má sedem kapitol, ktoré vždy predznamenáva autorská báseň k danej téme a výrez svetelného objektu, ktorý je v skutočnosti realizovaný v kove. Každá kapitola je tématickou ukážkou z tvorby: portréty, figurálne kompozície, tapisérie, maľby, publikácie, kresby, svetelné objekty.
Celou knihou prebieha chronologický odborný text PhDr. Kláry Kubíkovej a tiež texty súvisiace s jednotlivými životnými obdobiami od akad. mal. Milana Laluhu, PhDr. Ireny Pišútovej, Márie Horváthovej a riaditeľa Slovenskej knižnice pre nevidiacich Františka Hasaja. Vyvrcholenie tvorby súvisí práve s tvorbou, ktorá vytvára most medzi vidiacimi a nevidiacimi. Tak ako to zachytáva kalendárium. Úvod, záver aj názvy kapitol publikácie sú tiež v anglickom jazyku.
Kniha je viazaná v tvrdej väzbe, s výrezov na obale, ktorý je znakom rodiny, alebo štylizovaným reťazením špirály D.N.A. čo na zadnej strane obalu potvrdzuje ukážka maľby - Rodina.
The Line - An Adventure into the Unknown
A deceptively simple adventure into the unknown using only paper, a pencil and a single line
Wreck This Journal had a simple premise: destroy the book in all the ways you can imagine.
The Line is even simpler: find pencil, start a line.
As you move through the pages of Keri Smith's newest book, you'll be asked to let your line meander, explore the book's gutter, and jump around the edges of the pages. You'll hide your line, cut your line and even let someone else take over your line for a bit. The farther you get into the book, however, the more you'll discover that maybe things aren't as simple as they first seemed. The line has a mind of its own, and it's up to you to discover what's at the end of the line (hint: it's just the beginning).
What is Painting
At the turn of the twenty-first century, many felt sceptical or confused about painting’s on-going cultural relevance. In this context, Julian Bell’s What is Painting? provided an accessible and inspired account of artistic thinking and practice, and of the complexities then facing artists and their audiences. Eighteen years on, the situation is partly reversed. Painting has proved too resilient a practice to be marginalized any longer. Yet is there any sense of forward momentum for the art? Interrogating the factors that have changed our ideas of painting over the past two centuries, Bell addresses relations between figuration and abstraction and between narrative and non-narrative painting, as well as the waning of conceptual art’s dominance and the proliferation of experiments with the physical limits of painting. He also clarifies general concepts such as ‘expression’ and ‘representation’.
Fully revised to provide a fresh look at the situation of painting, this new edition maintains the objective of lucid, historically informative explanation that earned the original edition its status as a text of lasting value. The book provides a general reader’s introduction to theories of painting that is not only reliable, but also stimulating and amusing to read.

Rozmanitosti kresby
Publikace „Rozmanitosti kresby“ představuje formou katalogu a úvodních kapitol nejdůležitější kresby Italských mistrů vrcholného a pozdního baroka, které jsou uloženy ve veřejných sbírkách v České republice, především v Národní galerii v Praze, Moravské galerii v Brně nebo Památníku národního písemnictví v Praze. Publikace je rozčleněna na jednotlivé kapitoly, v níž je kresba italských mistrů seřazena podle její stylové, funkční i žánrové mnohovrstevnatosti, jak bylo typické pro 17. a 18. století. A tak obsahuje studie figur, návrhy kompozice, dekorativní návrhy, návrhy pro divadelní scénu, krajiny, podobizny nebo žánr. Zohledňuje také náboženské, světské, mytologické a alegorické náměty.
Z hloubi duše
Záměrem autorky knihy Z hloubi duše je zveřejnění výpovědi o otevírání cest k výtvarnému projevu tvůrců trpících duševní poruchou nebo nemocí. Nešlo jí o hledání patologických znaků v kresbách psychotiků, v jejich malbách nebo v jiných vizuálních projevech za účelem diagnostikování. Autorka se zajímá o způsoby výtvarného „vyprávění“ vlastních příběhů lidí, kteří se ocitli v životní krizi zapříčiněné selháním psychiky. Stejně jako v umělecké sféře, i v tvorbě psychotiků stojí za každým dílem jedinečná lidská osobnost. Avšak zatímco umělec tvoří z vlastního popudu, cestu k vyjádření klientů psychiatrických léčeben je třeba nalézat společně s terapeutem nebo zdravotním pracovníkem. Odborný text v knize je proložen osobními poznámkami studentek a studentů, kteří spolu s autorkou knihy motivovali zhruba v období let 2015–2016 pacienty Psychiatrické nemocnice v Brně – Černovicích ke specifickým výtvarným výpovědím. Výtvory pacientů tak přesáhly běžný rámec terapeutických etud a je možno je vnímat jako pozoruhodná svědectví o jejich předchozím životě. Bohatá fotodokumentace doprovázející texty pochází také převážně z tohoto období.
Drawing Masterclass
Drawing Masterclass explores the act of vision of the world’s great artists, describing how the images were created to allow you to weave some of this magic into your own drawings. The book is organized into seven chapters covering important genres: nudes, figures, landscapes, still life and studies, heads, fantasy and abstraction.
Each chapter selects a cross section of artists and examines their practice in detail, using key drawings. Each artist is described through one of 100 selected masterpieces, plus a biographical profile and a practical look at the way the drawing was made: the materials and technique, as well as an examination of the ideas and inspiration behind its making and how the artist’s life might reflect their concerns. Light and shade, rhythm, form, space, contour and composition are all covered in detail. The book covers a broad historical and geographic sweep, and includes many of the most celebrated male and female artists.
