Brooke DiDonato: Take a Picture, It Will Last Longer


The debut monograph from the inimitable photographer, Brooke DiDonato, exploring the strangeness lurking behind the ordinary in everyday life. Brooke DiDonato: Take a Picture, It Will Last Longer is a curated collection of Brooke DiDonato’s singularly surreal photography. Evoking feelings of nostalgia or disorientation, DiDonato’s work teeters between the familiar and the fantastical. Inspired by family homes in Ohio, her compositions challenge expectations of how space can be occupied. Torsos, legs, and arms contort into uncanny arrangements across sofas and ascend into attics. Ordinary surroundings often have a compelling presence?white picket fences, cornfields, deserts, and sidewalks become sites of unexpected psychological encounters as figures are subsumed by their environments. Her pictures are playfully titled?Growing Upward Has Its Downside, What to Expect When You're Expecting Nothing, and Went to Therapy but I’m Still in My Patterns?and poignantly touch upon contemporary anxieties and universal themes of love and loss. This volume brings together her most well-known bodies of work, including A House is Not a Home, alongside new works published here in print for the first time. A short introduction from writer Eleanor Sutherland provides an overview of DiDonato’s practice, while an intimate conversation between Emmy award–winning filmmaker and writer Eve Van Dyke and Brooke's father, Bob DiDonato, offers a personal glimpse into her evolution as an artist. A one-of-a-kind photographic experience, DiDonato's first monograph invites us into her beguiling world, daring us to stare a little longer. 167 color illustrations

Plugin House


An inspirational manifesto of innovative pre-fab solutions to the urgent housing problems around the world from a progressive young practice. A manifesto for a new age of architecture, Plugin House is a guide to the innovative, sustainable and community-driven solutions to the global housing crisis. Challenging conventional architectural practices, the book champions the prefabricated house as an affordable and practical way to address homelessness, housing scarcity or gentrification. An empowering model for small studios and self-builders worldwide, Plugin House proposes an architectural revolution through houses that can be built quickly with limited tools and experience. The book presents a diverse array of Plugin House projects by international architecture studio People's Architecture Office (PAO), brought to life by photography of these structures in situ. Located in China and the US, the projects shine a spotlight on the shared issues underlying the global housing crisis and the transformative ideas that can be replicated or adapted to different contexts around the world. Insights into barriers to accessible housing and potential ways to overcome them are revealed through personal stories, each its own mini graphic novel. Illustrated assembly manuals reveal how Plugin Houses are put together, and a comprehensive atlas of each Plugin House to date details their design and construction. A visually striking and inspiring handbook, Plugin House boldly paints a vivid picture of a new architectural paradigm, igniting a call to action for architects and urban planners worldwide.

Behind the Mirror


A USA TODAY BESTSELLERA look inside the TV show that watches you backIn a house designed for manipulation, paranoia, and power plays, sixteen strangers are cut off from the outside world—watched every second by cameras, judged by millions. Welcome to Big Brother. A show ahead of its time, it was once dismissed as fluff television. Now this voyeuristic reality show has quietly become a cultural juggernaut, capturing the rawest truths of human behavior while building an intense, obsessive fanbase along the way. But what are the costs of turning human lives into entertainment? What kind of psychological toll does it take to be put in isolation, under constant surveillance, in a perpetual state of suspicion? And what does it say about us as a society that we love to watch it unfold? Behind the Mirror: Inside the World of Big Brother peels back the layers of the historic franchise and dives deep into the game that never sleeps. Through years of live footage, online discourse, and controversial castings, this eye-opening book unpacks how Big Brother has shaped and exposed societal dynamics around race, gender, identity, power, and surveillance. It’s the story of a show that thrives in chaos and reveals a reflection of us all—ambitious, flawed, strategic, and deeply human. Whether you're a diehard fan or an unimpressed skeptic, Behind the Mirror will challenge what you thought you knew about reality TV. Because if you think Big Brother is just a game, you haven’t been paying attention.

The Duncan Method – Thinking Through Dance


The text by renowned dance teacher Eva Blažíčková explains dance as a unique artistic discipline which, through teaching using the Duncan Method, can develop not only into an independent creative activity, but also positively influence the formation of a person and their relationship to the world. The author gradually introduces readers to the theoretical foundations of the Duncan Method and defines its current form, focusing on the key areas that shape it (Technique, Improvisation, Creation, The Art of Teaching). At the same time, she provides a detailed analysis of the differentiated qualities of movement. A significant part of the book is then devoted to didactic procedures and specific exercises that can be used in practice when teaching dance across age groups and types of schools. The publication is written in sensitive, poetic-philosophical language and, with its broader scope, opens up more general questions of artistic education, the quality of existence, and the values that shape human society. The whole is complemented by original drawings by the academic painter Vladimír Kokolia, which naturally accompany the reader through the landscape of Duncan's dance thinking.

Jiří Příhoda ´80


Tvorba Jiřího Příhody z 80. let 20. století dosud nebyla systematicky zpracována, přestože právě v tomto období autor artikuloval základní výtvarné postoje, které později rozvinul v rámci své mezinárodně uznávané umělecké praxe. Významnou roli v této etapě sehrál pobyt na Vysočině, kde Příhoda od narození do konce 80. let trávil většinu svého volného času na venkově u prarodičů. Právě tehdy vznikl soubor prací, v němž se propojila klasická kresebná průprava, formovaná na Střední odborné škole výtvarné v Praze („Hollarka“), s intuitivním hledáním formy a výrazu. Krajina v okolí Lovětína, Roštejna a Růžené se pro něj stala prostorem experimentu: nejprve prostřednictvím kresby a grafiky, posléze formou konceptuálně laděných intervencí do terénu, které dnes chápeme jako významný příspěvek k domácí verzi land artu. The artistic oeuvre of Jiří Příhoda from the 1980s has yet to be systematically mapped, even though it represents precisely the period when the author first articulated his underlying artistic stances, later developed as part of his internationally recognized artistic output. A significant role in this stage was played by his time in the Vysočina region, where Příhoda from his birth until the end of the 1980s spent most of his free time in the countryside with his grandparents. And it was here that he created the body of work where he linked his classical drawing knowledge, acquired at the Václav Hollar Secondary Professional School of Art in Prague (informally known as “Hollarka”), with an intuitive search for form and expression. The landscape near the villages of Lovětín, Roštejn and Růžená became for him a space of experiment: first through drawings and prints, later through conceptually shaped terrain interventions, which are now understood as a significant contribution to the Czech version of land art…

Ai Weiwei. Updated Edition


Ai Weiwei is famous for much more than his art. As a champion for the right to free expression and against arbitrary state power, his actions reach far beyond the art world. His work is infused with a deep social and political commitment: when he brings 1,001 Chinese citizens from all classes and regions to Documenta 12, when he strews over 100 million hand-made porcelain sunflower seeds across the Turbine Hall at the Tate Modern, when he creates a frieze of school bags commemorating the many children who fell victim to the tragedy of the Sichuan earthquake, or when he visits the refugee camps of the world to engage with often-ignored individual fates in his film Human Flow. In 2011, Ai was detained for 81 days by the Chinese police for his relentless questioning of authorities, and his passport was taken away. Despite international protests he received it back only in 2015. Finally traveling outside of China again, setting up base in Berlin and lately in Portugal, he has now become a truly global artist, whose work is always informed by his activism and vice versa. Focusing on the recent decade of art and activism by one of the most outspoken artists of our time, this edition provides TASCHEN’s previous Ai Weiwei monograph with a comprehensive update. Now exploring 40 years of work, the book ranges from the artist’s exile in ’80s New York, through sculptures based in Chinese traditions and craftsmanship after his return to China, to his latest works conceived in Europe: toy-brick mosaics, films, and installations championing human rights. This book is itself a historical document: initially produced as the first in-depth monograph in close collaboration with the artist during a time when he still couldn’t travel abroad, now the same team has reconvened to continue the story. Countless images from Ai’s archives show the studio day-to-day, the artwork production, the political actions. They are accompanied by artist’s statements made especially for this book, and by three far-ranging essays: independent curator Roger M. Buergel and art historian Alfred Weidinger, who both worked with the artist on major exhibitions, discuss the work and its development in thematic detail, while long-time friend, the entrepreneur and collector Uli Sigg, delivers a personal portrait of the artist from two points in time.

Manifest krajinářské architektury/ Landscape Architecture Manifesto


Manifest krajinářské architektury nabízí čtenářům cestu, jak vnímat krajinu. Klíčem je pochopení jedinečnosti každého konkrétního místa. Autoři se brání celospolečenské tendenci vidění světa, který je rozdělen na přírodu a člověka v ní, jako dvě oddělené entity. Kniha odkrývá, že člověk může identitu místa posilovat a tvořit. V druhé části publikace najdete stavby krajinářské architektury různého rukopisu a typologiie od třech architektonických ateliérů, které založili a vedou autoři knihy: Jakub Chvojka – CHVOJKA/architekt, Tomáš Jiránek – NEW VISIT, Markéta a Petr Veličkovi - M&P Architekti. The Landscape Architecture Manifesto offers its readers a path toward perceiving the landscape. The key to this aim is an understanding of the uniqueness of each specific place. What the authors reject is the broad-based tendency to view the world as divided between nature and humanity, as two essentially separated entities. The present volume reveals how humanity can strengthen or create a place's identity. In the second half of the publication, you can find realizations of landscape architecture in a variety of styles and typologies from the three studios founded and operated by the book's authors: Jakub Chvojka – CHVOJKA/architekt, Tomáš Jiránek – NEW VISIT, Markéta and Petr Velička - M&P Architekti.

Groundhog Day


Groundhog Day (1993), directed by Harold Ramis and starring Bill Murray, is widely regarded as one of the most original and enduring films of 1990s Hollywood. What begins as a high-concept romantic comedy about a cynical television weatherman forced to repeatedly relive the same day soon deepens into a tale of despair and renewal, coloured by existential unease and the spirit of Samuel Beckett. In this engaging study, Ryan Gilbey traces the film’s unlikely journey from Danny Rubin’s speculative script, centred on a man condemned to eternity in a small town, to its transformation into a studio classic. Drawing on fresh interviews with Rubin, Gilbey explores the inspired casting of Murray and Andie MacDowell, the film’s quietly radical structure, and the delicate balance between comedy and melancholy that gives Groundhog Day its lasting power. This new edition includes an afterword in which Gilbey reflects on the film’s continuing cultural impact, its themes of repetition and despair assuming fresh resonance in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic with its cycle of lockdown and re-opening. He considers Groundhog Day’s influence on movies and television from Source Code (2011) and Edge of Tomorrow (2014) to Russian Doll (2019–2022) and I May Destroy You (2020), as well as the 2016 stage musical based on the movie. Groundhog Day, Gilbey argues, has become more than a film; it is now a lens through which we examine repetition, transformation and the rhythms of contemporary life.

Global Warning


Martin Parr puts the world to rights in this comprehensive catalogue of five decades of his photographs, published to accompany a major exhibition at Jeu de Paume in Paris. For over fifty years Martin Parr has photographed the absurdities of the contemporary world, from the frenzy of over-consumption and the ravages of mass tourism to humanity’s increasing reliance on technology and our complex relationship with the animal kingdom. By turns critical, satirical, surprising, and funny, Global Warning is published in association with Jeu de Paume to accompany a new major exhibition of Parr’s photography at the arts centre in Paris in January – May 2026. Richly illustrated with more than 175 of his photographs, from his early black-and-white work in the raucous holiday parks and sleepy supermarkets of rural England to his more recent colour photography of bustling tourist attractions and must-see destinations from across the globe, Global Warning offers a reinterpretation of Martin Parr’s work and position in a time of widespread global disorder. Featuring a tone-setting introduction by Quentin Bajac, director of Jeu de Paume, four further essays by Jean-François Staszak, Roberta Sassatelli, Violette Pouillard, and Adam Greenfield, experts in the fields of geography, sociology, wildlife conservation and urban design, put the selection of works into context and explore the important topics that seem immediately relevant to our everyday lives. Showcasing many of Parr’s most renowned images alongside rarely published hidden gems, Global Warning presents more than five decades of incisive visual commentary from one of the world’s most celebrated photographers.
