Urbanistický Atlas Bratislava 2022
Publikácia sa venuje prezentácii Urbanistickej štruktúry a členenia mesta, katastra Bratislavy. Tieto témy súvisia s návrhom nového územného plánu, ktorý by mal obsahovať hranice zastavaného a zastaviteľného územia mesta. Kataster Bratislavy má dnes zhruba tretinu zastavaného územia, tretinu tvoria zeleň, lesy a tretina plochy je nezastavaná. Jednotlivé mestské časti, aj menšie časti mesta majú rôznu štruktúru zástavby. Prvým krokom pri návrhu celku by mohlo byť definovanie Urbanistických lokalít, ktoré sú základnou zložkou urbanistického členenia mesta. Dnešné členenie na ZSJ- základné sídelné jednotky je zastaralé a neobsahuje novú zástavbu po roku 1990. Publikácia obsahuje popri analýze štruktúry zástavby aj alternatívu nového členenia Bratislavy.
Publikácia obsahuje do 80 schém mesta aj jednotlivých častí mesta, 12 fotozáberov z dronu, časť textu je v anglickom jazyku. Zobrazený je aj vznik nového obrazu mesta- aglomerácie a možný rozvoj štruktúry severozápadnej a severovýchodnej časti mesta Bratislava.

Saudek
Reedícia monografie predstavuje dielo svetoznámeho českého fotografa Jana Saudka. Tvorbu autora sleduje chronologicky vrátane doteraz nezverejnených diel. Publikáciu uvádza text Daniely Mrázkovej a dopĺňa ju zoznam vybraných výstav, publikácií a biografické údaje. Jan Saudek patrí spolu s Josefom Sudkom a Františkom Drtikolom k najznámejším českým fotografom. No sám aj k tým najprovokatívnejším. Je zbožňovaný aj zatracovaný, oslavovaný a opovrhovaný, uctievaný aj preklínaný. Jan Saudek dráždi. Jeho kontroverzné dielo pomáha pochopiť zložitosť súčasného sveta a človeka. Hoci jeho fotografie zobrazujú najchúlostivejšie stránky ľudského bytia, sú vo svojej podstate oslavou ľudstva. Napriek mnohým Saudkovým monografiám, ktoré vyšli v rôznych krajinách, je práve táto kniha zatiaľ najkomplexnejším prehľadom jeho tvorby.
Kamera! Beží... 2 diel
Publikácia doc. Antona Szomolányiho, ArtD. s názvom "Kamera - beží 2 …" voľne nadväzuje na prvý diel publikácie s rovnakým názvom, ktorý vyšiel tlačou v roku 2016. Kým v predošlej knižke sa autor venuje najmä fyzikálnym vlastnostiam svetla a základným tvorivým postupom pri vzniku filmového obrazu, nová publikácia zdôrazňuje význam najnovších praktických poznatkov v digitálnej filmovej tvorbe. Čitateľ dostane odpoveď na nové otázky, ktoré prináša digitálna filmová prax. Monografia je zameraná najmä na praktické riešenia kameramanskej tvorby podľa najnovších trendov. Kniha je rozdelená do 33 kapitol, vychádza pritom z praktických potrieb kameramana - tvorcu a vysvetľuje podrobne rôzne tvorivé situácie a postupy. Ako možno riešiť smerovanie pohľadu respondenta pri filmovej výpovedi, či pravidlo pre nastavenie správnej výšky snímacej kamery. Szomolányi skvelo objasňuje významné postupy súčasnej digitálnej exponometrie, lebo len ony umožnia vznik plnohodnotného filmového digitálneho obrazu. Vysvetľuje proces prevodu scénického obrazu, teda predmetnej reality, do výtvarne expresívneho filmového tvaru. Transformačný proces, ktorý pritom prebieha dnes stále nie je definitívny, vyvíja sa, a pre každý typ profesionálnej kamery používa dokonca vlastný firemný formát spracovania surových (RAW) obrazových dát. Podstatou však je, že digitalizácia snímaného obrazu už konečne pripomína ten logaritmický prevod, ktorý my kameramani dávno poznáme z definícií tzv. fotochemických senzitometrických charakteristík klasického filmu. Pravda s istými novými špecifikami a technickými zvláštnosťami. Logaritmické 3D farebné charakteristiky tzv. 3D LUT-ky nahradili pôvodné filmové senzitometrické krivky. Autor textu tu bez zbytočnej matematiky a fyziky vysvetľuje podstatu tohto procesu a dáva praktické návody, ako všetky najnovšie poznatky reálne využiť. Kameraman a pedagóg Anton Szomolányi správne upozorňuje na to, že digitálna exponometria je dnes v neustálom vývoji. Vznikajú nové (HDR) postupy aj meracie pomôcky pre posúdenie správnej hodnoty expozície snímku. Preto odporúča mladým kameramanom stále platnú metódu objektívneho merania expozičného osvetlenia pomocou meracích prístrojov. Problematika súčasnej digitálnej filmovej tvorby je už natoľko rozsiahla, že vznik tejto monografie možno iba privítať. Pomôže objasniť veľký rozsah nových potrebných znalostí.

Yves Saint Laurent: Form and Fashion
Yves Saint Laurent invented a multitude of new silhouettes—minimalist, exuberant, round, ultra-structured—that eclipsed traditional forms in fashion.
A fashion revolutionary, Yves Saint Laurent and his creations were resolutely modern. His ongoing exploration of shape and form incessantly pushed the boundaries of his creativity, and lead to his most groundbreaking and iconic designs. His works were influenced by the artistic trends of the time?from simple and geometric abstraction to constructivism and concrete art?whose many movements mirror the multifaceted talent of the designer. A bold, exacting gesture underpinned his art: his minimalist dresses were often monochromatic compositions seemingly sprung from a single line. A colorist, he imagined pure yet exuberant abstract designs by juxtaposing flat surfaces in vibrant hues. Transposing pictorial material into textile, he thus balanced color, form, surface, and line. An illusionist, he would juxtapose black and white to suggest movement in the garment through optical illusion. By using flat, simple lines, shape prevailed over color.
This volume accompanies an exhibition at Musée Yves Saint Laurent Paris from June 9, 2023 to January 14, 2024, which will feature key pieces from the Yves Saint Laurent archives in dialogue with the set design and works by ceramic artist Claudia Wieser.
Astonish Me!
Astonish Me! is an adrenaline-charged rollercoaster through history's seismic first nights, exploring how individual artists can change and shape the story of culture - and allow us to see ourselves in new ways.
It tells of times when 'the air between people seems to alter' as art achieves profound change, across the globe and across history.
Dominic Dromgoole has created a radical and fresh canon. He begins in New York in 1963, as Lorraine Hansberry remakes American theatre and a nation's perception of race. And then, as the lights go up, we find ourselves in Renaissance Florence, watching Michelangelo's David being hauled into the Piazza della Signoria. The dust settles and we are transported to the birth of theatre in fifth-century Athens - and then to Paris to meet with Diaghilev and Stravinsky for the Rite of Spring. We witness kabuki's creation, as a radical women's performance, in Kyoto; the Sex Pistols shattering Thatcherite Britain at Manchester's Free Trade Hall; and watch as Hitchcock directs Psycho.
Looking at Picasso
A major new survey that offers fresh insights on artworks by one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century, Pablo Picasso, written by a leading authority on the master.
As one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century, Pablo Picasso’s (1881–1973) artistic achievements are unparalleled. This important new introductory monograph, released to coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of the artist’s death, presents the beauty, power, and multiplicity of Picasso’s work across his paintings, sculptures, drawings, and prints, and offers fresh analysis of the work of this great master for a twenty-first-century audience.
Since the 1980s, most books and exhibitions on Picasso have focused on the artist’s personal relationships, specifically on the representation of his wives and mistresses. Art historian and curator Pepe Karmel shifts the debate by considering Picasso’s works first and foremost as art, explaining how the artist’s style has evolved over the course of seven decades, introducing visual languages and narratives that have transformed modern art.
Arranged chronologically by themes and movements, Looking at Picasso is profusely illustrated with renowned paintings, such as the provocative Les Demoiselles d’Avignon and the monumental war piece Guernica, as well as lesser-known works, including Picasso’s animal sculptures and his animated reinterpretation of Velázquez’s seventeenth-century masterpiece Las Meninas.
Numerous exhibitions planned for 2023 will coincide with this important and accessible volume.

Paris Moderne
This broad survey of modernism-the most scintillating creative era in Paris-spans all domains: architecture, art, design, entertainment, fashion, film, literature, photography.
The lives and works of artists in every creative discipline transformed Paris into a crucible of modernity in the first half of the twentieth century. Profiles of eighty-eight influential artists, designers, photographers, architects, writers, and personalities-including Gabrielle Chanel, Eileen Gray, Jean Prouvé, Pablo Picasso, Tamara de Lempicka, Sonia and Robert Delaunay, Brassai, Man Ray, Robert Mallet-Stevens, Charlotte Perriand, Le Corbusier, Adolf Loos, Walter Benjamin, Josephine Baker, Jean Renoir, Gertrude Stein, and more-highlight the boundless creative energy and optimism that permeated the City of Light at this key historical juncture. Richly illustrated alphabetical entries with cross-references to related topics are complemented by six thematic essays on cinema, fashion, graphic design, habitation, painting, and urban planning. A portfolio of original contemporary photographs-from the historic center to the suburbs of Paris-reveals traces of modernism in dozens of buildings and their interiors that are rarely open to the public. This catalog-published to accompany an exhibition at the Power Station of Art in Shanghai in summer 2023-sketches a panorama of human invention across the vast creative landscape of Paris from 1914 to 1945.
Japan on a Glass Plate
Drawing from an extensive private collection assembled over many years, this book presents a unique selection of nineteenth-century photographs of Japan, many of which are published here for the first time.
Between the twilight years of the Tokugawa shogunate (1603–1867) and the end of the Meiji Era (1868–1912) that followed it, photography offered a unique insight into the rapid transformation of Japan from an isolated, feudal society to a modern, industrialised state. In the four decades that followed the opening of the country in 1853, the camera evolved from an imported novelty to a familiar witness of Japanese daily life.
Operating from the Treaty Ports of Yokohama and elsewhere, early practitioners of photography plied an often precarious trade in images of Japan and laid the foundations of what would soon become a highly competitive industry with a global reach. Whether cherished as souvenirs of an exotic land of fond imagination or curated as visual documents of a fast-changing society, these images by foreign and Japanese photographers, often packaged in exquisitely produced albums, enjoyed a wide circulation abroad and played an important role in influencing perceptions of Japan in the West well into the early twentieth century.
Richard Wagner a jeho Židovství v hudbě
Kolektivní monografie autorů z Filozofické fakulty UK pojednává o Wagnerově nechvalně proslulém spisu Židovství v hudbě a obecněji o sociálně-politických aspektech provozování Wagnerových oper. Jednotlivé kapitoly představují různé kontextualizace Wagnerova spisu, skladatelovy osoby i otázky spojené s prováděním a přijímáním jeho oper. Stranou nezůstává zasazení do kontextu dobové filosofie a německé romantiky, souvislost s dalšími Wagnerovými spisy, problematika uvádění Wagnerových oper ve státě Izrael nebo revize obecně přijímaných představ o karikaturách Židů ve vrcholném Wagnerově hudebním díle, v Prstenu Nibelungově. Každá z těchto kapitol se pokouší o problematizaci některého z významných aspektů kauzy „Wagner a Židé“, aniž by usilovala o jednoznačné řešení. Editoři a autoři si kladli za cíl především korekci některých zažitých stereotypů a přesnější vymezení problému.
Arnold Bartůněk
První souhrnná publikace o českém sochaři a restaurátoru Arnoldu Bartůňkovi (1955) představuje jeho formální a umělecký vývoj od 80. let minulého století po současnost, od drobnějších děl komorního charakteru vznikajících v ateliéru až po rozměrnější realizace ve veřejném prostoru. K těm posledním patří například mramorová socha nazvaná Slavěna, vytvořená k poctě stého výročí vzniku Československé republiky, jež byla odhalena v Litomyšli v roce 2018. Přehled jeho celoživotní tvorby doplňují reprodukce figurálních kreseb z posledního desetiletí. Vybrané střídmé texty odrážející autorovy myšlenky a postoje ozřejmují formální a ideová východiska jeho práce.
Celé Bartůňkovo dílo naplňuje především jeden ústřední nevyčerpatelný motiv – totiž ženská postava jako věčně inspirativní fenomén. Sochař se žádným krokem nikdy nezpronevěřil svému hlavnímu záměru: usilovat o dominanci krásy, která je výsledkem souladu ušlechtilého materiálu, inspirujícího motivu, stability sochy a naplnění uměleckých řešení a cílů. Dokumentované dílo je snahou navrátit se k přirozenému světu s jeho řádem a tradicí a oponovat převažujícím současným akademickým konceptuálním tendencím.
This Is What It Sounds Like - A Legendary Producer Turned Neuroscientist on Finding Yourself Through Music
One of the Next Big Idea Club's Favorite Nonfiction Books
A Behavioral Scientist Notable Book of 2022
A legendary record producer–turned–brain scientist explains why you fall in love with music.
This Is What It Sounds Like is a journey into the science and soul of music that reveals the secrets of why your favorite songs move you. But it’s also a story of a musical trailblazer who began as a humble audio tech in Los Angeles, rose to become Prince’s chief engineer for Purple Rain, and then created other No. 1 hits ,including Barenaked Ladies' "One Week," as one of the most successful female record producers of all time.
Now an award-winning professor of cognitive neuroscience, Susan Rogers leads readers to musical self-awareness. She explains that we each possess a unique “listener profile” based on our brain’s natural response to seven key dimensions of any song. Are you someone who prefers lyrics or melody? Do you like music “above the neck” (intellectually stimulating), or “below the neck” (instinctual and rhythmic)? Whether your taste is esoteric or mainstream, Rogers guides readers to recognize their musical personality, and offers language to describe one's own unique taste. Like most of us, Rogers is not a musician, but she shows that all of us can be musical?simply by being an active, passionate listener.
While exploring the science of music and the brain, Rogers also takes us behind the scenes of record-making, using her insider’s ear to illuminate the music of Prince, Frank Sinatra, Kanye West, Lana Del Rey, and many others. She shares records that changed her life, contrasts them with those that appeal to her coauthor and students, and encourages you to think about the records that define your own identity.
Told in a lively and inclusive style, This Is What It Sounds Like will refresh your playlists, deepen your connection to your favorite artists, and change the way you listen to music.
