Seventy thirty


"The dynamism of the images and the inventive sequencing make this not just a book of great photographs, but a great photography book full of energy and verve." "... a fitting tribute to [Shapiro's] legacy" - B&W Photography Famed photojournalist Steve Schapiro and his son Theophilus Donoghue have collaborated on seventy thirty, a photo project that is 70% Schapiro, 30% Donoghue. Seventy thirty depicts the various faces and expressions of humanity, from metropolitans to migrants, unseen homeless to conspicuous celebrities, such as Alec Guinness, Allen Ginsberg, Muhammad Ali, Robert De Niro, Rene Magritte, Janis Joplin, Andy Warhol, and the Velvet Underground. Schapiro photographs early New York skateboarders while Donoghue documents current Colombian breakdancers. Father and son both capture philosophically poignant moments that rouse reflection. Schapiro includes his classic photo "Man on Iceberg," which was the opening double-page spread of a Life story on existentialism. In a similar fashion, Donoghue contributes his contemplative "Hindsight Intersection," which was recently featured in ARTSY's 20 21 Artists in Support of Human Rights Watch benefit auction. Shooting in monochrome with an occasional dash of colour, Schapiro and Donoghue portray the proud and lofty as well as the humble and humorous. Alternately profound and playful, Schapiro and Donoghue's photographs capture a vast range of human emotion and experience. Like his father, Donoghue is equally concerned with social justice issues. For this project, Schapiro has selected images from the 60s civil rights movement and, with Donoghue, provided photos from today's Black Lives Matter protests and environmental rallies. Apart from numerous stateside locations, their project includes images from India, Italy, Nicaragua, Panama, Costa Rica, Colombia, and Ecuador. Together father and son provide a touching overview of humanity throughout the world from the 1950s to present day.

Vitamin D3, Today's Best in Contemporary Drawing


Phaidon's 'Vitamin' series has long proved an extraordinarily accurate predictor of tomorrow's stars. This paperback edition of the latest volume is a cutting-edge and indispensable survey of the very best of contemporary drawing, as chosen by a panel of the world's leading art experts Over the past 50 years, drawing has been elevated from a supporting role to a primary medium, ranking alongside painting as a central art form. Since Phaidon's publication of the first such surveys (Vitamin D in 2005 and D2 in 2013), contemporary artists have continued to explore drawing's possibilities - from intimate to large-scale works, in a diversity of mark-making processes and materials. Vitamin D3 showcases more than 100 such artists, as nominated by a global panel of more than 70 international art experts. The more than 70 nominators include such iconic figures as: Iwona Blazwick, Louisa Buck, Mark Coetzee, Thelma Golden, Laura Hoptman, Geeta Kapur, Pablo Leon de la Barra, Christine Macel, Kate Macfarlane, Hans Ulrich Obrist, and Zoe Whitley.

China Adorned


Aesthetic influences drawn from China have long resonated throughout Western art, design and thought. China Adorned challenges the monolithic idea of 'Chinese' culture and fashion, turning the lens on the rich clothing traditions of ethnic minority groups. Drawing on three decades of research by cultural anthropologist Professor Deng Qiyao, the book documents and demystifies the customs, rituals and mythology of more than 30 minorities through their clothing and accessories. Deng's never-before-published archival photos sit alongside stunning contemporary imagery by photographer Cat Vinton that showcases fabrics, jewellery and the surrounding landscapes, helping readers to better understand the deep connections between people, place, ritual and adornment. Contributor essays delve further into the textiles and methods, the role of the artisan, the extraordinary resilience of material culture and the importance of preserving these traditions for generations to come.

Experience of Architecture and Art


This book neatly depicts the tension between two different artistic media in the work of Le Corbusier. It is said he used to paint in the morning before spending the afternoon in his design studio. In the 1920s when he co-founded the "purist" movement, the forms in his paintings found their way into his buildings, and vice versa. But his later works show a different sort of synthesis - the remarkable Ronchamp pilgrimage chapel, with its shadows and coloured light, achieved an almost painterly effect - but without paint. This book explores this theme in six French locations where the work of Le Corbusier is to be found - Notre Dame du Haut at Ronchamp, Firminy, Saint-Marie-de-la-tourette at Lyon, E 1027 at Roquebrune-Cap-Martin (which features the architect's figurative murals as interior decoration) and the nearby Le Cabanon.

Basic Human Anatomy


A comprehensive, yet flexible and holistic approach to the human body for artists, Roberto Osti s method of teaching anatomy is exhaustive, but never loses sight of the fact that this understanding should lead to the creation of art. Basic Human Anatomy teaches artists the simple yet powerful formula artists have used for centuries to draw the human figure from the inside out. Osti, using the basic system of line, shape, and form used by da Vinci, Raphael, and Michelangelo, takes readers step-by-step through all the lessons needed in order to master this essential foundation skill. Organized progressively, the book shows readers how to replicate the underlying structure of the body using easy-to-understand scales and ratios; conceptualize the front and side views of the skeleton with basic shapes; add detail with simplified depictions of complex bones and joints; draw a muscle map of the body with volumetric form and realistic dimension; master the feet, hands, and skull to create realistic renderings of the human form; and apply a deeper knowledge of anatomy to finished drawings for more impact.

Paradise now - aneb revoluce v umění, Paříži a Avignonu


V polovině 60. let odchází Living Theatre do Evropy, aby uskutečnil rozchod s americkou kulturou a šířil myšlenku anarchistické revoluce. Během pobytu v Evropě vytvoří soubor několik inscenací, které zobrazí téma revoluce pomocí řady nových scénických postupů. Skutečný příspěvek k anarchistické revoluci pak zinscenuje v létě revolučního roku 1968 na Avignonském festivalu, kde uvede premiéru inscenace Paradise NOW a v programu představí i dva starší projekty Mysteries and Smaller Pieces a Antigone. Každá z inscenací obsahuje jiný princip proměny vnímání, který má vést diváky k novému, revolučnímu způsobu jednání. Inscenace Mysteries and Smaller Pieces směřuje pozornost účastníků k aktivaci smyslů a k prohloubení dojmu slyšení skrze poslouchání, vidění skrze dívání se, cítění prostřednictvím tělesného vnímání; inscenace Antigone zobrazuje pohyb a jeho absenci, která se stává zdrojem bytí, života a smyslu; inscenace Paradise NOW otevírá dveře zakoušení přítomného času, který vstupuje do reality scénického díla a naplňuje ji životem. Prostřednictvím nových scénických forem Living Theatre usiluje objevit nové formy vnímání, které umožní vytvořit podmínky pro anarchistickou revoluci. Pokusy promítnout revoluci ze scény do skutečnosti však vedou k dystipickým účinkům. Inscenování revoluce na druhou stranu otevírá účastníkům nové druhy dojmů, které by nebylo možné vyjádřit jinak a jinými prostředky.

Design: The Whole Story


A revised edition of this popular history of design, updated to reflect innovations since the book's first publication in 2016. Design: The Whole Story takes a close look at the key developments, movements and practitioners of design around the world, from the beginnings of industrial manufacturing to the present day. Organized chronologically, it locates design within its technological, cultural, economic, aesthetic and theoretical contexts. From the high-minded moralists of the 19th century to the radical thinkers of modernism - and from the emergence of showmen such as Raymond Loewy in the 1930s to today's superstars such as Philippe Starck - the book provides in-depth coverage of a subject that touches all our lives. Iconic works that mark significant steps forward or that characterize a particular era or approach - such as Marcel Breuer's Wassily chair of 1925, Eliot Noyes' corporate identity work for IBM in the 1950s and Matthew Carter's Verdana typeface, designed to be read on screen - are analysed in detail, while the text sets out the framework of ideas, intent and technology within which differing approaches to design have evolved. From the cars we drive and the products we buy to the graphics that surround us, we are all consumers of design. Design: The Whole Story provides all the information needed to decode the material world.

Hotel Chelsea


An immersive photographic tour of the legendary Chelsea Hotel, whose residents share their stories and reveal the delirious history of this landmark. Jackson Pollock, Robert Mapplethorpe, Patti Smith, Dylan Thomas, Arthur Miller, Bob Dylan, Arthur C. Clarke, Andy Warhol, William S. Burroughs, Janis Joplin, Eugene O'Neill, Rufus Wainwright, Betsey Johnson, R. Crumb, Thomas Wolfe, Jasper Johns - these are just a few of the figures who at one time occupied one of the most alluring and storied residences ever: the Chelsea Hotel. Born during the Gilded Age and once the tallest building in New York, the twelve-story landmark has long been a magnet for artists, writers, musicians, and cultural provocateurs of all stripes. In this book, photographer Colin Miller and writer Ray Mock intimately portray the enduring bohemian spirit of the Chelsea Hotel through interviews with nearly two dozen current residents and richly detailed photographs of their unique spaces. As documented in Miller's abundant photographs, these apartments project the quirky decorating sensibilities of urban aesthetes who largely work in film, theater, and the visual arts, resulting in deliriously ornamental spaces with a kitschy edge. Weathering the overall homogenization of New York and the rapid transformation of the hotel itself - amid recent ownership changeovers and tenant lawsuits - residents remain in about seventy apartments while the rest of the units are converted to rentals (and revert to a hotel-stay basis, which had ceased in 2011). For the community of artists and intellectuals who remain, the uncertain status of the hotel is just another stage in a roller-coaster history. A fascinating portrait of a strand of resilient bohemian New Yorkers and their creative, deeply idiosyncratic homes, Hotel Chelsea is a rich visual and narrative document of a cultural destination as complicated as it is mythical.

Alex Prager: Silver Lake Drive


The definitive monograph on Alex Prager, one of the truly original image makers of our time. Alex Prager is a photographer and filmmaker whose elaborate sets and complex staging draw on a rich cultural heritage of cinematic style, informed by street photography, to produce work that is unerringly memorable. At once temporal and timeless, bright but shadowed, Prager's images exist within a hyperreal world, deeply rooted in the eerie undertones of Los Angeles, where the line between reality and fiction is blurred. Prager's critically acclaimed work is introduced here, spanning a decade of photographic work and five films. This collection of carefully curated photographs is complemented by an in-depth interview by Nathalie Herschdorfer, director of the Musee des Beaux-Arts Le Locle, Switzerland, and discursive essays by Michael Govan, director of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Michael Mansfield, executive director of the Ogunquit Museum of American Art, Maine, and Clare Grafik, senior curator at The Photographers' Gallery, London.
