Banksy: A Graphic Novel


Told in classic comic-book form, this graphic biography invites a new audience to learn about Banksy-and uses a pitch-perfect medium to convey the artist's message that art is for the people. Banksy is arguably the most well-known street artist of all time. But we don't actually know who he is. This is just one of many contradictions that are addressed in this enormously compelling graphic biography. When two young Londoners are caught spray-painting graffiti on a city wall, they get to know each other while detained by the police. After they are released, they decide to make a film of Banksy's life, tracing the arc of his career as they travel through the streets of London. Readers will learn not only of Banksy's politically charged art and the causes he championed, but also of its worldwide dissemination, museum exhibitions, and record-breaking auctions. While readers may not learn Banksy's true identity, this uniquely graphic form of storytelling communicates the artist's belief that art is for everyone, speaks to everyone, and is owned by everyone.

Katedrála sv. Víta, Václava a Vojtěcha


V žádném jiném monumentu nejsou tak výrazně vepsány dějiny českých zemí a jejich obyvatelstva jako právě tady. Svatovítskou katedrálu lze nahlížet a vykládat z rozmanitých úhlů, jež můžeme považovat za oprávněné, ale nelze nevnímat aureolu posvátnosti, která katedrálou prostupuje a vyzařuje z ní. Stavba katedrály byla budována s velkými uměleckými aspiracemi. První mistr, který stál v čele stavby, Matyáš z Arrasu, povolaný Janem Lucemburským z Avignonu, přenesl do Prahy vzor francouzské katedrální architektury. Ale Matyášův nástupce geniální Petr Parléř dodal pražské katedrále a její sochařské výzdobě rysy umělecké výjimečnosti. Po dobu vlády Karla IV. postupovala stavba úspěšně kupředu, zastavilo ji až husitské období. Již tehdy katedrála zastávala nezastupitelnou roli v symbolice českého státu: byly zde uloženy korunovační klenoty.

Jan Blažej Santini-Aichel


Architekt Jan Blažej Santini-Aichel je fenomén. V dějinách naší architektury není nikdo jiný, kdo by dokázal v prostředí vlády všeobecně respektovaného slohu uskutečnit tak velkolepým způsobem svou osobní vizi. Na druhé straně by však bylo nepochopením doby a díla interpretovat Santiniho jako osamělou individualitu vystupující z kontextu baroka a překračující všechny hranice. Nejpozoruhodnější na Santinim je právě to, že dokázal oba tyto zdánlivé protiklady spojit. Ani dnes ještě nemá tento mimořádný architekt v obecném kulturním povědomí místo odpovídající jeho významu. A to je i důvod, proč vznikla tato kniha a proč byl Santini zvolen jako téma prvního svazku zamýšlené ediční řady věnované významným osobnostem naší stavební historie.

The Office of Good Intentions. Human(s) Work


Immerse yourself with architects Florian Idenburg and LeeAnn Suen as they journey through a wide-ranging collection of the objects, systems, and buildings that have occupied the American office space since the advent of the internet. Through stories and speculations, Idenburg and Suen expose the relationships between space, work, and people, and explore the intentions that have driven the development of office design for working humans. In twelve essays, this book examines the spatial typologies and global phenomena that have defined the office in the last half century. Topics include the return of the work club, the rise of the corporate festival, the way of the charismatic guru, the shattering of the time clock, and the design of playgrounds for work. We cycle through Frank O. Gehry's radical, playful spaces for digital nomads in the advertising world, stagger under the weight of stacks of punch cards, feel the fit of our bodies in the Aeron Chair, answer the phone in Hugh Hefner's bed, and scroll through Lil Miquela's feed. Photographic essays by Iwan Baan provide a visual post-occupancy report on a range of canonical office projects, such as Marcel Breuer's IBM campus in Florida and the Ford Foundation's urban garden in Manhattan. Four intervening catalogs offer collections of experimental workplace products, augural advertisements for office building components, digital office components, and renderings of speculative workplaces; each catalog bridges the reality of the office and how we imagine its alternatives. This book is a theoretical backdrop for architects as much as it is for businesspeople and employees. With curiosity and skepticism, it looks at the spaces and solutions that have been designed for human work, tracing the transformation from work to occupation, from punch cards to "playbor," from today's lived experience to tomorrow's unpredictable, imagined futures.

Pierre Cardin: Making Fashion Modern


On the centenary of Pierre Cardin’s birth, this volume looks back at the designer’s early career to discover the inspirations behind his later iconic work. Pierre Cardin’s designs were worn by an international elite of beautiful women, from Jackie Kennedy to Lauren Bacall and Jeanne Moreau. A close friend of André Courreges and Paco Rabanne, Cardin revolutionized modern fashion in the mid-1960s, creating iconic designs that continue to resonate today. His many talents and mastery of materials—from fabrics to plastics—extended from haute couture to ready-to-wear, menswear, jewelry, furniture design, perfumes, and accessories, while his business acumen led him to create a business empire that stretched from China to the United States. In this volume, longtime Cardin collaborator Jean-Pascal Hesse shares his intimate knowledge of the designer’s early career in Paris and analyzes the creative influences and partnerships that inspired Cardin to design some of the most emblematic haute couture creations of the 1950s and 1960s, as well as the space age–inflected Cosmocorps work, which presciently explored gender fluidity. Drawing from a broad range of sources that Hesse has been gathering for more than two decades, this work features personal recollections from Cardin himself, in addition to numerous previously unpublished photographs and documents recounting his early years in Christian Dior’s studio, his success in the United States in the 1950s and 1960s, and his profound interest in Japanese art and design.

Tove Jansson


An appreciation of the life and art of Tove Jansson, creator of the Moomin books, which are adored by children and adults across the globe. This book provides fresh insights and a deeper appreciation of the life and art of Tove Jansson (1914-2001), one of the most original, influential and perennially enjoyed illustrators of the 20th century. Jansson's flourishing Moomin books are examined in detail, as are her interpretations of such classics as Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and The Hunting of the Snark, and J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit. Born in Helsinki among the Swedish-speaking Finnish minority, Jansson was brought up with a love for making art and stories in a supportive artistic family. Her first illustrated tales were published when she was fourteen years old. From a year later until 1953, she drew humorous and political cartoons as well as striking front covers for the satirical magazine Garm, responding to the Second World War and its aftermath as she developed from art student to painter and muralist, bohemian and lesbian. This book also explores the emergence of her Moomin world, appearing in her first children's book in 1945 and then in newspaper strips. These would lead to her being headhunted by the London Evening News, the world's biggest-selling evening paper, to write and draw a daily Moomin newspaper cartoon. This body of work is one of her great achievements, expanding her stories, settings and cast and invigorating her drawing and writing. Jansson also wrote many novels, documented here along with personal commentaries from her own writings.
