Tanqueray
Reeling from a brutal childhood, immersed in a world of go-go dancers and hustlers, dirty cops and gangsters, Stephanie Johnson was determined to become the fiercest thing the city had ever seen. And she succeeded. This is her story.
The storytelling phenomenon Humans of New York has captivated a global audience of millions with personal narratives that illuminate the human condition. But one story stands apart from the rest . . .
She is a woman as fabulous, unbowed, and irresistible as the city she lives in.
Meet Tanqueray.
Humans of New York featured a photo of a woman in an outrageous fur coat and hat she made herself. She instantly captured the attention of millions. Her name is Stephanie Johnson, but she's better known as 'Tanqueray,' a born performer who emerged from a troubled youth to become one of the best-known burlesque dancers in New York City.
Real, raw, and unapologetically honest, this is the full story of Tanqueray as told by Brandon Stanton - a memoir filled with never-before-told stories of Tanqueray's struggles and triumphs through good times and bad, personal photos from her own collection, and glimpses of New York City from back in the day when the name 'Tanqueray' was on everyone's lips.

This comprehensive volume includes:
How to apply a strong, simple, and minimal design aesthetic to logo design
Why gridding is important, and understanding the golden ratio and when to use it
How to sketch and refine logos through tracing, then grid and execute a mark in Adobe Illustrator
Fine-tuning techniques to ensure visual integrity
Knowing how to design a great logo is a core skill for any graphic designer. Principles of Logo Design helps designers at all levels of skill and experience conceive, develop, and create logos that are not only pleasing to the eye but evoke a sense of perfection.

The Monocle Book of Photography
The best photo assignments from the Monocle archive, published to mark the magazine's fifteenth anniversary.
Back in 2007 the first issues of Monocle magazine hit newsstands and kiosks around the globe. At its core was a pledge to commission all original photography - capturing the world on film, on the ground and in the moment. The cover of that first issue featured a Japanese helicopter pilot from the country's defence force - taken as part of a 10-day reportage assignment for both photographer and writer. In the years since, Monocle has continued in its pursuit of documenting the world through its unique lens - from embassies and residences to world leaders and cultural stars. Each issue has featured a dedicated photographic Expo section celebrating lesser-known locales, obscure events and curious characters through truly outstanding photography. Alpine wrestlers, Syrian outposts, French legionnaires, noodle-makers, game show hosts and private member's clubs have all graced the pages.
The Monocle Book of Photography draws on the best of these photographic stories from an archive a decade and a half in the making. A handsome linen bound edition with the highest quality gloss paper and printing, the book also features supporting text about the photo assignments and the stories behind them, including first hand accounts from the photographers involved.
Designing Peace
Designing Peace asks, how might we collectively put our creative forces together to envision a future we want to live in and take action to create it now? This book is an intersectional snapshot of the actions-culturally diverse and wide-ranging in scale-that are currently in play around the world. Offering perspectives on peace through essays, interviews, critical maps, project profiles, data visualizations, and art, this book conveys the momentum that design can gain in effecting a peace-filled future. From activists, scholars, and architects to policymakers, graphic, game, and landcape designers, Desiging Peace flips the conversation: peace is not simply a passive state signifying the absence of war, it is a dynamic concept that requires effort, expertise, and multi-dimensional solutions to address its complexity. Designers engage with individuals, communities, and organizations to create a more sustainable peace-from creative confrontations that challenge existing structures, to designs that demand embracing justice and truth in a search for reconciliation. This publication aims to expand the discourse on what is possible if society were to design for peace.
Tom of Finland
A Tom of Finland sketchbook, with preparatory drawings that reveal his painstaking craftsmanship
Positioned at something of an angle to art history, Tom of Finland (1920-91) nonetheless counts among the popular artists of the latter 20th century. Through his iconic images, he almost singlehandedly changed the way gay men were perceived by society, and, more importantly, how gay men perceived themselves. The massive oeuvre that he produced over the course of a career spanning nearly six decades is devoted almost entirely to this one topic: men, their bodies and their eroticism. This extraordinary consistency in subject matter was matched by a lifelong passion for the discipline of drawing. And Tom most likely drew every day of his life.
Tom's world was populated by cowboys, mechanics, cops, punks and thugs--all indulging their desires with great camaraderie and without guilt or prejudice. This book assembles a cross section of these characters as devised by the artist in rough sketches or more carefully executed studies. These mostly served as preliminary drawings for the highly finished works, many of which were intended for publication.
Designed as an imagined Tom of Finland sketchbook, this book lets the viewer share in his exuberant joie de vivre.

Sacro bosco
Kniha barevně tónovaných fotografických obrazů Petry T. Růžičkové (1963 – 2021) Sacro bosco (Posvátný háj) umožňuje nahlédnout krásy italské krajiny i architektury, zahrad a parků obklopujících charakteristické jižní vily způsobem, jenž postihuje především vnitřní ráz těchto archaických zákoutí a scenérií. Cyklus Sacro bosco vznikal s použitím klasické analogové fotografie, která neprošla digitální úpravou mimo jiné kvůli tomu, aby nebylo setřeno kouzlo fascinujícího okamžiku. Autorka přetavuje vizuální vjemy do básnivě utvářených výtvarných metafor. Vytváří neotřelý a esenciální obraz magické země, která nás nepřestává inspirovat a jejíž hlubinu fotografka vystihuje ve snivých a symbolických rovinách působících uhrančivě i na toho, kdo se domnívá, že Itálii dobře zná a že už v ní nemůže nic nového objevit. Fotografie Petry T. Růžičkové jsou svědectvím toho, že náš niterný pohled znovu utváří a světelně koncipuje i to, co je zdánlivě neměnné a ponořené do minulosti. Itálie posvátných hájů se v jejích fotografiích znovu rodí a přetváří se světelnou magií a autorčinou imaginací. Knihu doprovázejí autorčiny verše ze sbírky Dovnitř obrácené oko (2009) a básnivý doslov znalce italské kultury i autorčina díla Miloše Doležala.
Divatikonok 2: Chanel
Coco Chanel a világ talán legnagyobb hatású divatforradalmára volt: a kis fekete ruhája, a buklé kabátjai, a műgyöngyei és a kéttónusú cipői - mind-mind nagyon gyorsan hihetetlenül népszerűvé váltak. Megragadta a kínálkozó pillanatot, és megadta a nőknek, amit kívántak, még mielőtt azok felismerték volna, mire van igényük. A férfi ruhatár alapjaiból indult ki a női kiteljesedés megteremtéséhez, és olyan demokratikus öltözködési kódexet hozott létre, amely szabadságot, egyenlőséget és visszafogott klasszikus stílust tükrözött.
A könyv Coco Chanel életét, illetve életművét mutatja be. Látjuk őt, ahogy szerény körülmények között elindult az életútja, ahogy globális jelenséggé vált, és parfümökkel, ékszerekkel és kiegészítőkkel bővült a márkája, és olyan örökséget hagyott maga után, amelyet a Chanel mind a mai napig követ. A tervezőnő még most, sok évvel a halála után is megmaradt a Chanel-ház mögött rejtőző névleges vezéralaknak.
Divatikonok 1: Gucci
Attól kezdve, hogy 1921-ben Firenzében az elit számára útipoggyász-ellátóként megalapították, egészen addig, amíg kivívta modern rangját a kultikus divatkiegészítők és divatholmik szállítójaként, a Gucci-ház titánnak számít a világ luxusdivatjában. Az elmúlt évszázad során a Gucci márkát fémjelező jellegzetes bőráruk és dekadens ruhadarabok elegánsan ötvözték a visszafogottságot a fényűzéssel a kívánatos dupla G védjegy alatt.
A könyv elmeséli a márka kezdetének történetét, amely luxuspoggyásszal és lófelszerelésekkel indult, majd számot ad arról, hogyan küzdötte le a család a megingásokat és háborús nehézségeket, hogy aztán az 1990-es évek haute couture-jének óriásaként születhessen újjá, majd Alessandro Michele jelenlegi irányítása alatt befolyást gyakoroljon az utcai viseletre és a rajongók új generációjára.
Több mint 100 pompásan válogatott kép mutatja be a Gucci vagány, mégis érzéki dizájnját, ezzel is igazolva rangját korunk legbefolyásosabb márkaneveként.

Este 11, kinyomtatom Mari könyvét, és leülök vele a nyitott ablak mellé, a negyedik emeletre felnőtt hatalmas cseresznyefa szinte bemászik az ablakon. Lent, a késő esti visszhangos Böszörményi úton dübörög egy üres villamos. Elkezdek olvasni, és azonnal torkon ragad a lüktető élet. Marié, az enyém, mindannyiunké, akik két évezred fordulóját kaptuk ki kegyesen, a hosszú béke viharos éveit, a hippi korszakból örökölt széles, aztán egyre keskenyedő margókat a hivatalos kultúra, a polgári lét peremén. Minden a margókról indul. Minden fontos a margókon történik. Megyek befelé az erdőbe, az ismerős-ismeretlen világba, ami Mari maga. Minden egyszerre van, a születésünktől a mostani pillanatig tartó ív egyetlen nagy, sűrű dzsungel, látható és láthatatlan lényekkel, zajokkal és illatokkal teli, amiből snapshotokat tép ki valami közeledő vihar száraz villámainak vakuja. Nincs benne kitaposott út, még ösvény sem, nagylelkűen enged, bármerre kóborolhatsz benne. Meglódul bennem minden, fájdalmas és szép, de mindenek felett elemien élő, az is, amit ismerek ebből a személyes világból, de még inkább, amit most fedezek fel.
Hetvenes évek vége, a Budapest Szálloda félemeleti kávézója, hárman ülünk: Erdély Miklós, én és a Mari. Fehér blúz, tiszta, erős tekintet, egy álruhás királynő. Végigfut rajtam a mély, elemi szeretet. Egy olyan időben, amikor minden ismeretlen leuralni akar - vagy aktívan, vagy azzal, hogy átnéz rajtam -, itt van valaki, aki igazán néz engem. És azt érzem, hogy igazán lát. Azt, aki valóban vagyok. Ritka, öntudatlan nagyvonalúság.
Hajnal van, a szürkeségben megszólalnak a madarak. Felzaklatva és hálásan teszem le a kéziratkupacot. Boldog az a világ, amit Mari néz. Mert ő igazán mer látni. Bátran, humorral, élesen, gyöngéden. Köszönöm.

Richard Hambleton
Richard Hambleton (1954 2017) was a Canadian artist known for his pioneering street art. He was a surviving member of a group that emerged from the New York City art scene during the booming art market of the 1980s, which also included his close friends Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat. As a conceptual artist, Hambleton s early work instal-lations titled Image Mass Murder from 1976 1979 were secretly placed onto streets in over 15 cities, depicting chalk-body outlines and blood-splattered crime scenes of what appeared to be victims. This theme of a prevailing violence, fear, and morbid curiosity elicited surprise and anxiety from its unsuspecting viewers. In the early 1980s, Hambleton created his most iconic Shadow Man works artfully splattered ominous shadowy figures on unexpected street corners, walls, and alleys that startled viewers into a visceral awareness that the city was still a dangerous place. This book features over 200 images including his early Shadow Man canvas paintings, as well as photographs of his in situ street work, a selection of his Marlboro rodeo horse silhouettes, and his Beautiful Paintings series of landscapes and seascapes, alongside other works on paper; behind-the-scenes studio shots; personal, unseen photographs of the artist; and inspirational imagery. Hambleton was renowned for influencing artists such as Banksy, Blek le Rat, and Shepard Fairey. This arresting, one-of-a-kind book will appeal to those interested in visual arts, street art, graffiti, and art history.
Kimono Style
The untold modern history of the Japanese kimono and its dynamic relationship to Western culture
Japan's engagement with Western clothing, culture, and art in the mid-nineteenth century transformed the traditional kimono and began a cross-cultural sartorial dialogue that continues to this day. This publication explores the kimono's fascinating modern history and its notable influence on Western fashion. Initially signaling the wearer's social position, marital status, age, and wealth, older kimono designs gave way to the demands of modernized and
democratized twentieth-century lifestyles as well as the preferences of the emancipated "new woman." Conversely, inspiration from the kimono's silhouette liberated Western designers such as Paul Poiret and Madeline Vionnet from traditional European tailoring. Juxtaposing never-before-published Japanese textiles from the John C. Weber Collection with Western couture, this book places the kimono on the stage of global fashion history.

Europe meets USA
Yang Liu uses her wonderfully apt pictograms to display the discordances between American and European customs with wit and wisdom. In Europe meets USA she captures her own experiences of living on both sides of the Atlantic, twinkling a fresh light onto the more obvious confusions. She also reveals the less conscious prejudices that exist between the denizens of the small continent of Europe and those of the giant United States.
If the usual view of our divergences is full of cliches in which there are grains of truth, the same is true in reverse. From shopping to commuting, from going to school to romance, from working to annual leave, from football to heros-with 128 pages, this linen-bound booklet invites each side to appreciate the anomalies, change perspective and look at the world through the other's eyes.
Yves Saint Laurent and Art
An unforgettable journey through art history with Yves Saint Laurent as a guide.
January 1962 saw the launch of the very first collection by Yves Saint Laurent. To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of his couture house, the Musee Yves Saint Laurent Paris is organizing a unique retrospective of the couturier's work that juxtaposes his creations with art works from the collections of four major Paris institutions: the Musee d'Orsay, the Centre Pompidou, the Musee d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris and the Musee Picasso, as well as presenting a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the secrets of couture at the Musee Yves Saint Laurent.
From the ancient world to pop art, Yves Saint Laurent regularly took inspiration from art history as he combined colours, carved out new forms and rethought the structure of garments in order to create his own masterpieces. Here, androgynous silhouettes and Proustian gowns stand alongside Manet's Le Dejeuner sur l'herbe, feather patterns respond to Jackson Pollock's drip paintings, flowing silhouettes merge with a mural by Raoul Dufy, Lucio Fontana's neon lights make metallic fabrics sparkle and the motifs on a coat echo The Dance by Henri Matisse.
Exploring the couturier's deliberate homages to the masters of art and his never-ending quest for new means of aesthetic expression, this book takes readers on an unforgettable journey through art history with Yves Saint Laurent as a guide.
