Coco Chanel
An updated authorized edition of Isabelle Fiemeyer’s literary biography of Coco Chanel, which demystifies the legendary designer’s life.
Coco Chanel was an emancipated fashion revolutionary. Raised by nuns in an orphanage, she rose to become a star of the world of couture and a byword for stylish elegance. But now, a fascinating new light can be shed on her life and career.
During the Second World War, Chanel closed her couture house, but accepted the enemy’s help in rescuing her beloved nephew from a prison camp. However, as newly declassified information reveals, she did not supply any information in exchange for this favour. Moreover, it now seems that she was unknowingly listed as an agent because of her British connections and friendship with Winston Churchill.
Featuring unpublished and exclusive content based on first-hand interviews with Chanel’s great-niece and confidante, this evocative portrait is based on years of painstaking archive research and tells the true story of the twentieth century’s most celebrated yet enigmatic fashion icon.

Sochař a architekt
Název publikace Sochař a architekt. Korespondence Františka Bílka s Josefem Fantou parafrázuje titul vydaný roku 1948, uveřejňující tehdy korespondenci Bílka s básníkem Juliem Zeyerem. Právě prostřednictvím Zeyera a Zdenky Braunerové se mladý Bílek seznámil též s architektem Josefem Fantou (1856–1954). Povaha jejich epizodického (a příznačně ambivalentního) přátelství a jeho význam pro Bílkovu tvorbu dosud nebyly předmětem badatelského zájmu. Jejich vzájemná korespondence obsahuje množství neznámých informací týkajících se především sochařova raného tvůrčího období a ozřejmuje okolnosti některých jeho důležitých zakázek. Komentovaná edice dopisů obou umělců je uvedena souborem několika vybraných, dosud rovněž nepublikovaných písemností přibližujících Bílkovy nesnadné začátky včetně jeho vlastního popisu pověstné osudové konfrontace s Josefem Václavem Myslbekem v září 1892. S cílem zpřístupnit Bílkovu pozoruhodnou osobnost a jeho dílo i zahraničním badatelům je celá publikace dvojjazyčná; do angličtiny tak byly přeloženy i transkribované dopisy. Edice dosud nepublikované vzájemné korespondence sochaře Františka Bílka (1872?1941) a architekta Josefa Fanty (1856?1954) obsahuje množství neznámých informací o Bílkově raném tvůrčím období a některých jeho důležitých zakázkách. Fanta sice patřil k blízkým přátelům Julia Zeyera, jeho vztah s Bílkem byl nicméně příznačně komplikovaný a kontroverzní. Komentovaná a kontextualizovaná edice dopisů obou umělců je doplněna úvodní studií a několika dalšími – zde nově publikovanými – písemnostmi ozřejmujícími nesnadné Bílkovy počátky včetně osudového střetu s Myslbekem v září 1892.

Surfing. 1778-Today. 40th Ed.
This volume is a comprehensive visual history of surfing, marking a major cultural event as much as a publication. Following three and a half years of meticulous research, it brings together hundreds of images to chart the evolution of surfing as a sport, a lifestyle, and a philosophy.
The book is arranged into five chronological chapters, tracing surfing culture from the first recorded European contact in 1778 by Captain James Cook to the global and multi-platform phenomenon of today. Utilizing institutions, collections, and photographic archives from around the world, and with accompanying essays by the world’s top surf journalists, it celebrates the sport on and off the water, as a community of 20 million practitioners and countless more devotees, and as a leading influence on fashion, film, art, and music.
An unrivaled tribute to the breadth, complexity, and richness of surfing, this book is a must-have for any serious player on the surfing scene and anybody who aspires to the surfing lifestyle. As one surfing scribe has declared, “There has never been a book like this, and there will never be another one again.”

Zdena Šafka * 17. února 1953 Praha
Malířka, textilní a kostýmní výtvarnice, scénografka, pedagožka, restaurátorka
1971–1973 Školský ústav umělecké výroby Praha
1974–1981 Vysoká škola uměleckoprůmyslová Praha (Bohuslav Felcman) V letech 1983–1989 byla kostýmní výtvarnicí v Divadle F. X. Šaldy v Liberci. Pak začala podnikat jako oděvní návrhářka pod logem Zdena Šafka (1989–1998). Přišlo několik ocenění i zakázka na slavnostní uniformy pro olympijské hry v Lillehammeru (1994), ale podnik se nepodařilo udržet. Následovalo pětileté období, kdy autorka působila jako odborná asistentka na Katedře designu Technické univerzity v Liberci. Teprve potom šla na volnou nohu a věnovala se plně volné tvorbě. Vedle práce na tapiseriích začala také malovat. Od figurální tvorby postupně přecházela ke krajinám a přírodě. Když získala dům v Kryštofově Údolí, začala pracovat na sérii Nejkrásnější viadukt, která byla poprvé vystavena v místním Muzeu betlémů (2014). Pak přišlo další zjednodušování forem až téměř na plošný obrys. I přesto je zejména z obrazů „lesních interiérů“ cítit, že jsou inspirovány Jizerskými horami. V roce 2017 jí vyšla monografie. Působí ve Vraném nad Vltavou a Kryštofově Údolí.
Vidieť neviditeľné. O Kandinskom
„… ak milujete maľbu, zaujímate sa o všetky jej formy, o všetky jej školy. Keď som však uvidel niektoré Kandinského obrazy, tie najťažšie, posledné, tie z parížskeho obdobia, bol som úplne fascinovaný a chcel som svoju skúsenosť pochopiť. Bolo vecou náhody, že som sa ponoril do Kandinského spisov, ktorý nielenže absolútne brilantným spôsobom teoretizoval vlastnú maľbu, ale vytvoril aj všeobecnú estetickú teóriu. Vtedy som objavil základy estetiky, ktoré by zodpovedali tézam, ktoré obhajujem vo filozofii. Kandinského demonštrácia bola oslnivá a relatívne prístupná, pretože ťažila z podpory maliarskej tvorby, ktorá bola schopná podoprieť tézy, ktoré zjavne odporovali každému existujúcemu maliarstvu. Západné maliarstvo bolo totiž vo svojom projekte maľbou sveta, pokiaľ si z neho požičiavalo figúry, formy a farby. (…) Nikdy v žiadnej inej oblasti mi nikto nedal kľúč k odpovediam na moje otázky tak ako Kandinský.”
Michel Henry v rozhovore s Olivierom Salazar-Ferrerom,
Montpellier, december 1990

all about CHALETS
Exclusive living retreats set against the backdrop of majestic peaks, steep slopes and picturesque valleys
The chalet is a building style that enjoys lasting popularity all over the world. Dating back to the herdsman’s hut in the Alpine region, it became a longed-for destination and the most preferred holiday domicile in the 19th century with the emerging fascination with the Alps. Today, architects and designers are primarily inspired by the constantly redefined interplay of sublime nature, traditional architecture, regional building typologies, individual design, and modern formal language that pushes them to reach magnificent creative peaks.
The projects selected for this volume are diverse and remarkably multifaceted: From a traditional construction with a flat gable roof, wide roof overhang, and robust timber façade, to contemporary, thoroughly idiosyncratic interpretations with clear lines, creative choice of materials, and fine details. However, the artful staging of the imposing mountain world in the interior design plays a decisive role among all presented chalets.
