Stitching and Strolling
A picturebook by Hermes that shares the joy of craftmanship for children and adults alike.
Durability, quality and transmission are values that have guided the creation of Hermes objects since 1837; values that Hermes aspires to share with the youngest generation. For this edition, Hermes has commissioned 100% ORANGE, the acclaimed creator duo whose works include numerous picture books and children's books. With their artisanal approach to create graphic designs and illustrations, they have created a story that seeks to encapsulate the meaning of craftsmanship and aims to pass on to the next generation the essence of Hermes. The joyful story of 'Ostampo Stetetcchi', expresses the Maison's unique artisanal savoir-faire with the following story:
As a craftsman masters skillfully the tools and materials in its small saddlery shop, bringing his creations to life, a dog enters with a special request. Gently and kindly, the craftsman works to fulfill the dog's earnest needs. With joy, the dog invites the craftsman for a walk, and as they walk, they encounter animals of one kind or another. A little bit of magic, his hands and his tools are all it takes for the craftsman to grant their wishes one by one. With perfectly crafted creations, the animals arn delighted by its magic.

Další svazek edice Deset představuje tvorbu mladé úspěšné autorky Anny Krištofíkové, studentky ateliéru kresby AVU. Anna Krištofíková (*1999) ve své tvorbě pracuje s motivem autoportrétu coby nástrojem sebeanalýzy a zkoumání vnitřních krajin duše. Symbolistní poetika metafor masek, klíčů, zámků a nočních motýlů rozehrává důmyslné psychologické rébusy, a zároveň tvoří soukolí melancholických vizí a snů, které je možno vykládat nejen coby výtvarné objekty, ale i jako filozofické alegorie autorčiny vlastní složité kosmologie. Krištofíková nám ve svých dílech připomíná naši vlastní fenomenologickou omylnost a odhrnuje oponu iluzorní reality vnímané prostřednictvím subjektivních mentálních reprezentací.
Druhá strana dojmov
Kniha Druhá strana dojmov problematizuje časovosť umeleckého diela, vzťah medzi umením a sociálnou realitou či vzťahy teórie umenia k umeleckej praxi. Marcel Proust je v nej predstavený nielen ako originálny spisovateľ, ale aj ako jedinečný estetik a filozof. Autor koncipuje pojmy a kategórie potrebné na koherentnú interpretáciu takého zložitého a roz-poruplného umeleckého jazyka, aký vytvoril Marcel Proust. Skúma prechody medzi sociálnym a kontemplatívnym bytím, ale aj rôzne módy vnímania, ktoré nás Proust necháva zažívať prostredníctvom svojho hrdinu: binárne, kaleidoskopické, teleskopické, mikroskopické, kinematografické vnímanie a nakoniec aj stereoskopické vnímanie, ktoré zabezpečuje rozvinutie reality v čase. Namiesto riešenia tradičných „proustologických“ sporov kniha otvára oveľa všeobecnejšiu diskusiu o povahe kreativity a prenose estetických dojmov. Osou celého textu je však problém autonómie umenia, ktorý autor považuje za kľúč k Proustovej estetike.

This new edition addresses how our views of Lupino's innovative cinema and her prodigious contributions to classic television have been taken up by others, proving that Lupino, whose reputation has waxed and waned since the middle of the twentieth century, is here to stay as a major figure in the history of American media.
Where Future Grows
An exploration of the shift towards work environments that foster creativity, well-being and meaningful growth – reimagining the future of work as a place where people really want to be.
Although more and more tasks are being taken over by machines and artificial intelligence, humans remain the central element to the working world. For knowledge workers in particular, the choice of workplace will increasingly depend on where they can best utilize their skills, find meaning in their work, and experience a positive working environment. Where Future Grows explores this transformation of work and examines how future workplaces should be designed. An environment that considers both functional and aesthetic aspects will become increasingly important.
The authors present a vision of a working world where the boundary between life and work dissolves, allowing human potential to be fully realized. Through detailed analyses of future work environments and a series of interviews, best-practice examples illustrate how workplaces should be designed to foster both professional and personal growth.
Notes on Book Design
Insightful texts on book design that explore the visual, tactile, and cultural aspects of books through the perspective of graphic designers
Fifty readings on book design, authored by Siri Lee Lindskrog and Amanda-Li Kollberg of Formal Settings, unfold across the pages of this volume. Drawn from a curated selection of titles in the private collection of the Hopscotch Reading Room – a conceptual bookshop and event space in Berlin – each text focuses on a single book, examining its visual and tactile qualities, from materials and layout to binding and typography. “Our aim is to understand the role and potential of books through a design lens, mapping what they communicate through their physical form.”
The authors guide readers through the intricacies of book design, showing how form can become message – how a book can serve as a vessel, a statement, and an object of beauty in its own right. They explore and examine each book as a design object, situating it within the cultural movements, political climates, and economic conditions in which it was produced. This publication reveals how book design can foster shared languages and cultures, create space for the exchange and exploration of ideas, and underscore the social and cultural dimensions of design itself.
With an afterword by designer, author, and teacher Prem Krishnamurthy, providing further context and insight into the project.
Women and Their Jewels
The word 'jewel' derives from the Old French word joiel, a word that finds its roots in the words for playing, joy, and enjoyment, proof that jewellery is intimately tied to notions of pleasure and happiness.
For some, it is the pleasure of love, for others, an obsessive passion. For Wallis Simpson, after the throne had passed her by, her jewelled treasures were her solace. As for Maria Callas, the soprano amassed diamonds and rubies to ward off the poverty of her childhood, and to spark the jealousy of a mother she hated. Barbara Hutton, America's most famous poor little rich girl, went around wearing a tiara, demanding to be called a princess. And they have been the cause of so much drama, Marie-Antoinette, whose diamond necklace identified her and sent her to the guillotine; Joséphine de Beauharnais, who was also embroiled in a necklace affair involving Marie-Antoinette's pearls; Begum Om Habibeh, Miss France 1930, and wife of the Aga Khan, who was robbed of her royal jewellery in the middle of the street...
In this gloriously illustrated book, novelist and jewellery expert David Lelait-Helo stares into the jewellery boxes of these illustrious women to discover their hearts and their minds.

LEstampe Originale
L’Estampe originale portfolio revisited in landmark Catalogue raisonné
L’Estampe originale graphics portfolio, published in France during the mid 1890s, is widely regarded as one of the greatest collaborations in the history of printmaking. The portfolio features ninety-five works of art by seventy-four influential French, Swiss, Belgian, English and American artists. The visionary Parisian publisher André Marty issued and distributed nine quarterly installments of L’Estampe originale from March 1893 to March 1895 in a limited edition of one hundred. The first eight folios each consisted of ten prints of varying sizes, paper, and media, loose in paper wrappers; the final ninth installment included fourteen prints. In addition to the artist’s pencil or ink signature and an edition number, a unique blind stamp designed by Alexandre Charpentier was embossed on each print.
This revised and full color publication of L’Estampe originale, A Catalogue Raisonné highlights the importance of color lithography during the last decade of the nineteenth century. The book includes an enlightening essay based on hundreds of mostly unpublished handwritten original and facsimile letters from the artists and from Marty’s collaborators; these are preserved at the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles. This vast chorus of voices allows the reader to eavesdrop directly on the past and reveals rich details of the life and working methods of André Marty—an ambitious cultural insider and artist, art historian, critic, editor, prominent and discerning publisher, private dealer and entrepreneur.

Picasso: The Figure
A fresh, multidisciplinary guide to Picasso's staggering engagement with the human form across painting, sculpture, drawing, engraving and ceramics
Published with Louvre Abu Dhabi.
Amply illustrated, this volume traces Pablo Picasso's (1881–1973) evolving approach to figuration throughout the many stages of his work?from the elongated, hieratic renderings of the Blue and Rose Periods, to the dynamic deconstructions of Cubism, to the colossal fleshy bodies of the 1920s, to the hybrid beings of the Surrealist period and beyond. Yoking masterpieces from the Musée National Picasso, the Louvre Abu Dhabi and other institutions, Picasso: The Figure adopts a fresh thematic structure to its subject matter. Its five mythologically inspired sections?"Orion," "Pygmalion," "Minotaur," "Deucalion & Pyrrha" and "The Picasso Canon"?chronologically trace Picasso's figurative innovations across mediums, including painting, sculpture, drawing, engraving and ceramics. Multidisciplinary in approach, the volume features essays not only by leading Picasso scholars but also by historians of the body, anthropologists and prehistorians. Together, the essays dissect the artist's rigorous dialogue with the visual languages of mythology and antiquity from which his modernist representations of the human form emerged.

Opera Wars
Blunt, irreverent, and at times wittily subversive, Opera Wars spotlights opera's colorful and sometimes warring personalities, increasingly fierce controversies over content, and the battles being waged for its economic future.
Drawing on interviews with dozens of opera insiders-as well as her own experience as an award-winning librettist, trained vocalist, opera company director, and arts commentator-Caitlin Vincent deftly unravels clichés and presumptions, exposing such debates as how much fidelity is owed to long-dead opera composers whose plots often stir racial and gender sensitivities, whether there's any cure for typecasting that leaves talented performers out of work and other performers chained to the same roles, and what explains the bizarre kowtowing of opera companies to the demands of traditionalist patrons.
Vincent never shrinks from depicting the industry's top-to-bottom messiness and its stubborn resistance to change. Yet, like a lover who can't quite break away, she always comes back to her veneration for the artform and in these pages stirringly evokes those moments on stage that can be counted on to make ardent fans of the most skeptical.
