Farid Belkahia


Farid Belkahia is one of the pioneers of contemporary Art in the Maghreb. Since the 1960s, his artistic research has focused on new ways of self-expression and examining his own identity and relationship with the other. Belkahia left the practice of traditional painting to work with copper, a new material for him, which he hammers, burns, oxidizes, and wounds in order to achieve emblematic traces, undulations, and flexible, rhythmic bas relief effects. Since 1974, Belkahia has also been working on parchment, which he darkens and softens to make it thinner, and almost translucent. This results in a kind of purifying process that is essential to his work, setting free an otherwise restrained creative energy. His use of leather is similar to parchment stretched on board, producing his unique totemic icons.

Otto Placht - El libro mágico


El Libro Mágico je knihou barvitě vyprávějící o kouzlu života v pralesích peruánské Amazonie a o síle tradice a inspirace, s níž se osudově setkal český malíř Otto Placht (1962). Nejde v žádném případě o tradiční monografii umělce, ale spíš o svéráznou kaleidoskopickou sondu do Plachtovy mnohovrstevnaté tvorby a dobrodružných životních osudů. Zároveň je kniha i osobitým holdem ayahuasce – jednomu z „pokrmů bohů“, který je po staletí spjat s duchovní praxí indiánských kmenů amazonských pralesů a místní šamani ho dodnes využívají k léčení, věštění i čarování. Právě svět ayahuaskových vizí spolu s proměnlivým ornamentem indiánů kmene Shipibo už více než dvacet let sytí malířovu imaginaci a provází ho na jeho cestách za „brány vnímání“. O nich, o síle lidské kreativity, o Plachtově víře v nepřemožitelnou a neustále se obnovující moc přírody a samozřejmě o jeho dílech, která vznikla jako svědectví osobního hledání, vypráví kniha nejen obrazem, ale i prostřednictvím svědectví přátel a znalců Plachtova díla. Vedle vzpomínkového textu samotného malíře v knize najdete texty spolumajitele centra moderního umění DOX Václava Dejčmara, americké výtvarnice a kurátorky April Dolkar, člena akademické obce univerzity UNIA v peruánské Pucallpě Otto Florese Sáenze, překladatele a básníka Gata, přítele z mládí Jana Pravdy, historičky umění Vandy Skálové a kulturního antropologa Mnislava Zeleného – Atapany. Kniha obsahuje texty v češtině, španělštině a angličtině.

Ai Weiwei


A renowned sculptor, installation artist, filmmaker, author and human rights activist, Ai Weiwei is contemporary China's most well-known and influential artist. His work has attracted international attention for its criticism of the Chinese government. Much of Ai Weiwei's work is a reflection of his own feelings of imprisonment, rage and powerlessness. This book offers reproductions of the approximate 50 works in the exhibition, some of which were specially created for Berlin's Marin-Gropius-Bau museum, and some more specifically for the building's enormous glass-topped atrium. From large installations to smaller dioramas, these works present Ai's most recent artistic expressions of resistance, courage and historical truth.

New Spirits: Images of a Revolution


At the start of the 1960s, jazz entered a unique period of revolution as African-American musicians redefined the art form in the context of the Civil Rights Movement, Afro-centric rhythm and thought and an ideology of black economic empowerment. John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman, Sun Ra, Pharoah Sanders, Albert Ayler and others developed a new cosmology of sound that was as revolutionary as the social and political changes that took place in America throughout the decade. From the musical explorations of John Coltrane, Cecil Taylor and Ornette Coleman to the collective and community concerns of Chciago's Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians and the black science fiction of Sun Ra, the new jazz musicians created a musical and cultural landscape from which jazz never looked back. This large-format deluxe hardback book features hundreds of stunning photographs of the new jazz musicians in the USA throughout the 1960s, presented with an introductory essay and biographies on the many artists included in the book.

Birht School Metallica Death


Metallica have sold in excess of 100 million albums and won seven Grammys. Their journey from scuzzy Los Angeles garages to the stages of the world's biggest stadia has been an epic and often traumatic one, and one of the few truly great rock 'n' roll sagas. No music writers have been afforded greater access to Metallica over the years than Paul Brannigan and Ian Winwood, two former editors of Kerrang. Having conducted hundreds of hours of interviews with the band, they have between them gained an unparalleled knowledge of the group's history and an insiders' view of how their story has developed: they have ridden in the band's limos, flown on their private jet, joined them in the studio, been invited to the quartet's 'HQ' outside San Francisco and shared beers and stories with them in venues across the globe. There are countless memorable stories about the band never before seen in print, tales of bed-hopping and drug-taking and car-crashes and fist-fights and back-stabbing that occur when you mix testosterone and adrenaline, alcohol and egomania, talent and raw ambition. Perceptive, emotionally attached, and intellectually rigorous, Birth, School, Metallica, Death will be the essential and definitive story of this extraordinary band. Volume I takes us from the band's inception through to the recording and eve of release of their seminal, self-titled, 1991 album.

The 46 Rules of Genius - An Innovator's Guide to Creativity


Not since Strunk and White's ELEMENTS OF STYLE has a book compressed so many insights into so few pages. With his trademark simplicity and wit, Marty Neumeier has written and illustrated a concise guide that can be read quickly over a lunch break or savored slowly over a lifetime. Part 1, "How can I innovate?" offers insightful guidance such as "Feel before you think," "See what's not there," and "Ask a bigger question." Rule #1 gives the paradoxical advice: "Break the rules." Part 2, "How should I work?" offers down-to-earth tips on craft: "Use a linear process for static elements," and "Express related elements in a similar manner." The reader is also reminded: "Don't be boring!" In Part 3, "How can I learn?" contains practical advice including "Do your own projects," "Invest in your originality," and "Develop an authentic style." Finally, Part 4, "How can I matter?" deals with the deeper questions of a career in creativity, such as "Overcommit to a mission," "Build support methodically," and "Become who you are."

Nirvana Historie nahrávek


Zatímco většina knih se věnuje Cobainovu turbulentnímu a krátkému životu, Jovanovicova Nirvana zkoumá tuto „poslední opravdovou kapelu rockové historie“ (Tony Visconti) skrze jednotlivá nahrávání, koncerty, rádia, televize i samotná zkoušení a touto optikou vnímá dění kolem. Paradoxně se tak dostáváme k trochu jinému úhlu pohledu – k příčinám a inspiracím Kurtových písní; od vlivu jeho tety Mari a první nahrávky na magnetofon v jejím domě přes neuvěřitelný vzestup z bláta Aberdeenu až do sfér, kde lokty nejsou ostré, ale rovnou opatřeny žiletkami. Kniha o tom, jak moc se líbilo intro „Heart Shaped Box“ (původně „Heart Shaped Coffin“) manželce Courtney Love, o jejich společných denících, o spolupráci Cobaina a Williama Burroughse, bitkách nad verzemi a mixy songů, o „We will rock You“ před sto deseti tisíci fanoušky v Jižní Americe, o snaze ztišit a promlouvat šeptem v mihotavém světle svíčky, která když ho zlomené srdce, obnošené tělo a mysl poněkolikáté KO s rukama nad hlavou v ringu paranoie, dohasla předčasně. Kniha analyzuje oněch dvanáct let v rozhovorech, dokumentací čtyřiceti nahrávání, bibliografiemi a nekompromisním popisem „čachrů“ za kulisami, které nakonec jeden z nejvýraznějších hlasů generace devadesátek umlčely.
