A Coffee a Day
Cafés, coffeehouses, and coffee shops around the world supply us with energy and lift our spirits every day. They are spaces for exchange and interaction, for letting the imagination flow and even escaping reality, and, of course, for writing, reading and thinking - a second home for many of us.
From reduced minimalism to ironic eclecticism, from cozy and hygge to industrial style, from vintage to elegant: this centuries-old institution is constantly redefined, reconceived and restaged for example as espresso bars, coffee roasteries and art house cafés, reflecting new social trends and design inspirations as well as the latest developments from the world of coffee. A Coffee A Day features an exciting global contemporary conceptual and stylistic range with a focus on the creative design esthetics.
Craft Beer Design
The experience of craft beer is not just about what's in the can, but what's on it. A dazzling illustration or a minimalist typographic treatment or even an oil painting - whatever it may be, craft beer branding has become an unexpected canvas where creativity meets commerce. In an increasingly thriving beverage category, microbreweries around the world are defining their ethos and identity through vibrant labels and colorful cans. In Craft Beer Design, Danish designer and craft beer expert Peter Monrad introduces the best and most out-there examples of beer branding from around the world. We meet the designers and learn about the thought processes behind their work, offering an exciting glimpse into the intersection of graphic design and craft beer.
Flora Photographica
Vivid, bold, spectacular and unexpected: a definitive overview of one of contemporary photography's most innovative fields, showcasing flower imagery by more than 120 of the world's leading practitioners.
There has never been a period in photography's long history - no school, no movement - when flowers have not been a central focus, whether in the form of the classic still life, the botanical study, incorporated into portraiture and studies of the human body, documented in street photography, or used subversively in surrealist collage and montage.
Today, flower photography remains in full bloom, with photographers the world over depicting flowers and floral motifs in novel ways. Featuring works by more than 120 photographers, Flora Photographica links the very best of flower photography from the past thirty years with its predecessors - canonical floral studies from the realms of photography, botanical illustration, drawing and painting that have marked the collective imagination for centuries, if not millennia.
Works by contemporary photographers such as Cindy Sherman, Thomas Ruff, Vik Muniz, Valerie Belin, Viviane Sassen, and Martin Schoeller appear across nine thematic chapters, complemented by two in-depth essays by curators William A. Ewing and Danae Panchaud exploring the relationship between contemporary works and the rich traditions of floral art and photography.
Vibrant and abundant with myriad species of flora, this stunning book is both a celebration of organic beauty and a keen look at the meaning of flowers in human culture - not to mention an insightful look at a key aspect of contemporary photography - making it a must-have publication for lovers of flowers and photography alike.
Searching for Dexys Midnight Runners
In the early 1980s, the pop charts were dominated by musicians tarted up in Day-Glo colours, who fought it out for coverage on our TV screens and magazine pages. Dexys Midnight Runners did things differently. They were surly. They were serious. They were ambitious, but success had to come on their terms. They were a disciplined outfit, a gang with a defined purpose: to make music so pure that it couldn't fail to elicit a deep emotional response from anyone within earshot.
And they managed it. This motley crew - in woolly hats and donkey jackets for their first coming; all dungarees and copious body hair for the second - gate-crashed the charts, scoring number-one hits around the globe. But being in Dexys wasn't all sunshine and roses. Many members came, many members went. Some returned unexpectedly as being part of this particular gang was a way of life; it was everything.
Nige Tassell, author of the Penderyn Prize-shortlisted Whatever Happened to the C86 Kids? employs his skills of detection to go off in search of the dozens of members who - for however brief a period, and to whatever level of success - have been a part of Dexys Midnight Runners. These are the people who gave the band its sound, its soul, its substance. But whatever happened to them?

Magali Reus: Dearest
Sculptural and photographic transformations of the domestic, the industrial, the functional and the decorative
Renowned for her particular take on what contemporary sculpture can be and express, Magali Reus (born 1981) draws on a vast range of formal influences and references, from the domestic to the industrial, the functional to the decorative, creating works that evolve as a fascinating accumulation and layering of visual details. Designed by Irma Boom, this artist’s book offers a unique approach to art making through the unveiling of the sources, visual imagery and connections that gave birth to the realization of three emblematic series by Magali Reus: Dearest (2018); Empty Every Night (2019); and Settings (2019–21). Conceived as a space where the viewer can take their time to get a closer, more intimate connection to her work, the publication alternates views of the works, close-up details and various materials—from a 3D technical rendering and production calculations to mock ups, samples and research photography. Sharing her production, process and research archive, Reus allows the reader to decipher the circulation of motifs from one medium to another, her specific take on the ideas of hierarchy, representation and systems of production, and how she explores the tensions between nature, technology and the impact of postindustrial human activity. The book gives full credit to her ongoing thinking on objecthood and how the objects and forms she creates take on a strange, disobedient agency. Made of three separate volumes. featuring different paper and taped together, this collectible publication is itself a powerful object.
Architecture & Human Rights: A Book on Urban Thinking
The striking inequalities in living conditions in today’s cities and metropolises reveal one of the greatest humanitarian challenges of our time. Assuming that architecture can never be neutral, those involved in this field of design are called on to recognize and to act on their responsibility to society, and not only in projects involving urban development. Their work should therefore not only be about creating living space, but questions of the distribution of resources, so closely interwoven with architectural design, must also play a role. This book is conceived as a collage of stories, photos, design and critical discussions about the relationship between architecture and human rights. Through this hybrid form, all of the people involved at every level of this relationship are given a voice and invited to question whether the architecture of the regions, streets and buildings for which they are responsible contributes to the protection and advancement of human rights.
Italic: What Gives Typography its Slant
The use of italic letters to accentuate has become common practice in the computer age. They convey movement and dynamics, addresses the emotional experience of reading and reminds of handwriting. This lively characteristic, which once resulted from the movement of the hand, is visibly lost when words are simply tilted by a mouse click. In order to impart basic knowledge about italics, the author has gathered design patterns of italic scripts and presents the tangible form, characteristics and functions of "italic nature". In addition, he deals intensively with the historical development of italics. This monograph is the first detailed treatise on this typographical topic, and is aimed in particular at all those who deal with letters professionally or privately.
Caspar David Friedrich: A-Z
ON THE CONTEMPLATION OF NATURE
One of his generation's most popular artists, German Romantic painter Caspar David Friedrich is known for his allegorical landscapes that convey a deep sense of contemplation and melancholy. 2024 marks the 250th anniversary of the birth of this outstanding artist, whose paintings continue to gain in topicality - hardly a discussion on climate change without one of his iconic paintings, such as The Sea of Ice, being invoked as a silent witness. Barbara Hess examines the painter's work and his life, from its lasting poignancy to the great themes of Romanticism and drawing. In the playful format of an A-Z book, the author takes us on a timely journey, showing how new views and perspectives can be gained from what has long been thought familiar.
Elliott Erwitt’s New York
There are many coffee table books dedicated to New York, but certainly none like this one. With New York, the photography legend Elliott Erwitt pays a monochromatic tribute to his hometown metropolis, creating a photo book that can unquestionably be classified as a work with historical significance. The native Parisian immigrated to the USA in 1939 and settled in the Big Apple in 1948. Since then, the camera has been his constant companion as he wandered through the streets of the global city.
In this revised edition, Erwitt presents compelling black and white photographs spanning his entire career. On 16 new pages, readers are given a first-time glimpse into previously unreleased images from the 1950s and 60s, allowing them to immerse themselves in a New York of days long past. A touch of nostalgia is guaranteed.
The photo book perfectly reflects New York and its soul. Celebrities stand alongside everyday New Yorkers, everyday moments shape contemporary history in a cheerful and sometimes slightly quirky manner, characteristic of Erwitt's work. It's no wonder he is considered one of the best street photographers in the world. His images are not only vivid and authentic, but are also characterised by a special irony derived from the everyday situations they originate from. This photo book is enjoyable to look at time and time again, always offering fresh surprises.
New York is the perfect book for those who can't get enough of this impressive megacity. Even die-hard fans of the metropolis will discover previously undiscovered facets of the city here. For all admirers of Elliott Erwitt's photographic art, this photo book is a must-have for their home collection.

A Book of Days
A deeply moving and brilliantly idiosyncratic visual book of days by the National Book Award-winning author of Just Kids and M Train. More than 365 images chart Smith's singular aesthetic - inspired by her wildly popular Instagram
In 2018, without any plan or agenda for what might happen next, Patti Smith posted her first Instagram photo: her hand with the simple message “Hello Everybody!” Known for shooting with her beloved Land Camera 250, Smith started posting images from her phone including portraits of her kids, her radiator, her boots, and her Abyssinian cat, Cairo. Followers felt an immediate affinity with these miniature windows into Smith's world, photographs of her daily coffee, the books she's reading, the graves of beloved heroes - William Blake, Dylan Thomas, Sylvia Plath, Simone Weil, Albert Camus. Over time, a coherent story of a life devoted to art took shape, and more than a million followers responded to Smith's unique aesthetic in images that chart her passions, devotions, obsessions, and whims. Original to this book are vintage photographs: anniversary pearls, a mother's keychain, and a husband's Mosrite guitar. Here, too, are never-before-seen photos of life on and off the road, train stations, obscure cafés, a notebook always nearby. In wide-ranging yet intimate daily notations, Smith shares dispatches from her travels around the world.

Lee Quinones: Fifty Years of New York Graffiti Art and Beyond
A comprehensive monograph on the work of a pioneering New York subway artist
This volume presents a sweeping overview of the monumental work of Puerto Rican–born artist Lee Quinones over the past five decades. When Quinones made his first spray paint mural in the New York City subway system, he was just 14 years old. He eventually spray-painted murals on over 120 subway cars, infusing kinetic elements of Futurism into his illustrations. These highly visible graffiti works served as a catalyst for what is now acknowledged as the Street Art movement. Indeed, the artist introduced spray-paint-based work to international audiences upon his first formal exhibition, and he also invented the concept of the freestanding urban mural through his handball court piece, Howard the Duck (1978).
This book is chock-full of Quinones’ street art works, paintings and drawings, underscoring the poetic social commentary the artist has incorporated throughout his formal evolutions. Pairing high-resolution images of his works with thoughtful scholarship, the monograph traces his influence on peers such as Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring and David Wojnarowicz. An abundance of archival photographs capture the gritty, vibrant New York City of Quinones’ early career.
Born in Ponce, Puerto Rico in 1960, and raised in the Lower East Side, Lee Quinones is considered the single most influential artist to emerge from the New York subway art movement. In 1980, Quinones had his first New York show at White Columns, ushering in an important era as the medium of spray paint expanded from public spaces to stationary canvas works.
100 magyar dokumentumfilm 1936-2013
A 100 magyar dokumentumfilm (1936-2013) sem tudományos, sem népszerűsítő értelemben nem dokumentumfilm-történet, és toplistát sem szándékozik kijelölni. A tizenhárom tematikus csoportba gyűjtött száz alkotás a Magyar Művészeti Akadémia filmklubjának programja volt. A vetítések után rögzítettük a moderátorok irányításával folytatott szakmai beszélgetéseket, és a szerkesztett videódokumentációkat az érdeklődők az mma-tv.hu csatornán meg is nézhetik. A filmek felidézésének megkönnyítésére jelen kötetben az elhangzott beszélgetésekből, a filmklub számára összeállított ismertetőkből, továbbá a sajtóban megjelent kritikákból, interjúkból emeltünk ki részleteket. Az így született szöveggyűjtemény reményeink szerint segítséget nyújthat mindazoknak, akik minden nehézséggel dacolva, a régi-új dokumentumfilmek közönséghez jutása érdekében közösségi mozizást (filmklub, könyvtármozi, rendhagyó történelemóra) szerveznek.
