Green Architecture for a Sustainable Future
The projects presented in this book are excellent examples of how the many facets of sustainability can be applied in the field of architecture.
By using the term "green" to cover them the author has attempted to highlight not only the most quantifiable factors (such as optimal energy efficiency values), but also other less tangible ones (such as architecture's respectful and harmonious integration with the natural environment and social sustainability) which are closely linked to environmental sustainability.
Fabric for Fashion
A bestseller for over 10 years, Fabric for Fashion: The Swatchbook is a unique resource with 142 swatches and yarns of the most recognized and widely used varieties of fabric to encourage consideration of not just their aesthetic appeal but also their structure, feel and weight. Natural fabrics such as cottons, silks, wools and linens are included, as are a wide range of manmade ones including alternative plant fibres like bamboo and hemp.
With accompanying information on fabrication, weights, construction, as well as yarn windings the book will help student fashion designers to make informed textile choices based upon an understanding of raw materials together with the processes that make up a fabric.
Rebecca Horn
Reality and fiction, matter and spirit, subject and object - the artist Rebecca Horn constantly blurs these boundaries. Even the different media she uses are not clearly separated but their interweaving is part of her artistic principle. This catalog, published to accompany the artist's comprehensive exhibition at the Bank Austria Kunstforum Wien, is dedicated to this aspect of her work. Essays by renowned authors provide new perspectives on Horn's oeuvre, which spans five decades: from her early body instruments and performances, to her feature films and kinetic sculptures, to her site-specific installations, drawings, and poems. The countless connections to art, literature, and film traditions are illuminated, as well as Horn's proximity to subjects from mythology and myths.

Plánování Prahy
Během druhé poloviny 20. století prošla Praha nejradikálnější urbanistickou proměnou ve své mnohasetleté historii. Získala tak současnou podobu, která se všemi klady i zápory denně ovlivňuje život každého Pražana. Dokážeme však říci, jak v hlavním městě probíhalo územní plánování? Kdo stál za výstavbou rozsáhlých panelových sídlišť, rozhodoval o jejich rozmístění či řešil problémy s rostoucí dopravou?
Kniha sestavená třemi historiky architektury a urbanismu Martinou Koukalovou, Milanem Kudynem a Evou Novotnou pomáhá čtenáři zorientovat se ve složitém systému dobových plánovacích a stavebních organizací. Prostřednictvím bohaté obrazové přílohy rovněž přibližuje průběh prací od náčrtu územního plánu až po jeho realizaci.
Především však v širším kontextu představuje dějiny Útvaru hlavního architekta organizace, která sehrála v novodobém pražském urbanismu zásadní roli a jež má dnes svého pokračovatele v Institutu plánování a rozvoje (IPR). Kniha podrobně shrnuje práci této významné organizace. Potřebné a často překvapivé informace v ní však najdou nejen odborníci, ale i zájemci o novodobé dějiny hlavního města.
Jaguar Book
Shimmering like a movie star and "a very British affair": for 100 years, Jaguar has been synonymous with elegance and luxury in automobile culture-and it's high time to commemorate this exquisite car brand. Right on time for the 60th anniversary of the E-Type, this new Jaguar photo book from automobile photographer Rene Staud captures iconic Jaguar designs: the E-Type or XK 140, the SS90 from the 1930s, and Jaguar's first electric car, the I-Pace. The man who elevated automobile photography to art, Staud stages these luxurious sports cars and racing icons in 175 photos, supplemented by texts from Jurgen Lewandowski. A beautiful ride through the complete Jaguar collection, with highlights from racing history, celebrity owners, and legendary Jaguar film appearances, such as James Bond, Harold and Maude, and more.
Selected Works
Vincent Peters' photographs have left the fast-moving trends of fashion photography behind and become timeless works of art. Born in Bremen in 1969, Peters has been one of the most sought-after fashion and portrait photographers for over 25 years. With his signature black-and-white photography and exquisite lighting, his portraits look like snapshots from classic movies. Supermodels, stars, and legends have all stood before his camera - from Penelope Cruz and Rosamund Pike to Mickey Rourke and Matt Dillon. This new Collector's Edition with luxurious linen finish expands on Peters' bestselling book with 30 new images, all personally selected by Peters. A collection of astonishing portraits, in which the intimate urgency of the moment creates a timeless image.
Faces Of Africa
"I try to read people's lives," says photographer Mario Marino. In this new photo book, the Austrian-born camera artist presents over 220 color and black-and-white photographs from some of the most remote areas of Ethiopia, Tanzania, Sudan, and Kenya.
Stunning landscapes combine with powerful portraiture, capturing in particular remote communities whose heritage and ways of life are threatened by the combined forces of tourism, technology, and globalization. With his subjects illuminated by the sunlight alone, particular attention is given to traditional markers upon the body: face paint, hair styles, and jewelry. Beyond simple reportage or documentation, Faces of Africa strives to create a timeless portrait that speaks to the deep geographical and cultural roots of each individual.
Fearless Females: Mothers, Hunters and Teachers
In the lion world, only the females hunt-because they do it best! The boss of a hyena pack? An alpha female. Even the lowest-ranking female of the pack is superior to her male counterparts. As for praying mantises? They keep interaction with men to the essentials, eating them right after mating for added nutrition.
The first photo book to focus exclusively on the female of the species, Fearless Females is a fascinating account of "feminine" strength throughout the animal kingdom. With some 150 photographs, accompanied by remarkable facts and extraordinary stories, the book reveals the fierce, formidable, and fascinating antics of she lions, elephants, and many other creatures. A refreshing reappraisal of "feminine" behavior and a long overdue emancipation of nature and wildlife photography.
Fenomén Jan Kotěra
Kniha ke 150. výročí narození Jana Kotěry je knihou pro radost. Zachtělo se nám pojmout ji jako roční putování (12 zastavení ve 13 kapitolách) po nejznámějších výsledcích architektovy tvorby.
Záměrně nemluvíme jen o architektonických památkách, protože Jan Kotěra byl autorem všestranným a zůstaly nám po něm i židle, stoly, interiérová výzdoba, svítidla a také kolejová vozidla a jejich vnitřní vybavení.
Projděte s námi rokem Jana Kotěry a nechejte se vést obrázky Davida Vávry, z nichž hned ten vstupní je portrétem mladého Kotěry, šviháka v kloboučku, s nakrouceným knírem a - nikdo mi to nevymluví - trochu poťouchlým pohledem, který říká: „Však vy uvidíte!“
The Future City : Visionary Architecture and Design
What might the city of the future look like and how might it meet the needs of future generations while limiting damage to our planet's fragile ecosystem? This book introduces pioneering architects, designers and planners whose visions for an alternative urban future address issues such as climate change, population density, infrastructure, transportation and digital culture. It includes over 40 radical projects grouped into five key categories: master planning and megacities, transportation and infrastructure, new habitats, green cities/ urban farming, and smart cities. Each category summarises trends that will drive the development of future cities, with each project representing a unique approach to urban development in the 21st century and beyond.
How To Get Away
This lavishly illustrated book of getaway homes is filled with lush photographs that illustrate the taste and soul of both the home owner and the designer. With inspiring interiors, along with how-to advice on creating the perfect escape, this book profiles seven types of retreat: contemporary cabins that offer a modern take on forest dwelling; minimalist refuges that are both spare and soulful; dramatic decor hideways; colourful cottages filled with art; reimagined farmhouses; coastal hideouts from the seaside to the jungle; and high concept homes in far-flung locations.
Tech Noir The Art of James Cameron
James Cameron has blazed a trail through the cinematic landscape with a series of groundbreaking films that have each become deeply embedded in the popular imagination. But while Cameron has created and employed advanced filmmaking technologies to realize his unique vision, his process of creative ideation began with pen, pencil and paints long before he picked up a camera.
Inspired by his mother, an artist, Cameron displayed remarkable ability at an early age, filling sketchbooks with illustrations of alien creatures, faraway worlds, and technological wonders. As he grew older, his art became increasingly sophisticated, exploring major themes that would imbue his later work-from the threat of nuclear catastrophe to the dangers inherent in the development of artificial intelligence, to a fascination with ecology that would foreshadow his storied career in science and exploration. Working in the film industry in his early twenties, Cameron supported himself by illustrating theatrical posters and concept art for low-budget films before creating the visionary concept pieces that would help greenlight his first major feature, The Terminator.
For the first time, Tech Noir brings together a dazzling and diverse array of personal and commercial art from Cameron's own collection, showing the trajectory of ideas which led to such modern classics as The Terminator, Aliens, Titanic and Avatar. Starting with his earliest sketches through to unrealized projects and to his later work, the book features the filmmaker's personal commentary on his creative and artistic evolution throughout the years.
A unique journey into the mind of a singular creative powerhouse, Tech Noir is a true publishing event and the ultimate exploration of one of cinema's most imaginative innovators.

David Lynch :Digital Nudes
The latest volume of the polymathic filmmaker's protean nude portraiture
Though he is best known as a writer and director, David Lynch has long been dedicated to photography. This volume is the second installment of Lynch's series of photographic explorations of the female figure. Digital Nudes brings together a corpus of previously unpublished digital images in line with the aesthetics of the first volume's analog photographs, while experimenting with the possibilities offered by digital technology.
Kaleidoscopic visions of legs, arms or inscrutable landscapes of soft skin, chiaroscuro portraits where the stark lighting cuts across his subjects as cleanly as a knife, images of varnished nails and lacquered mouths all appear--the American filmmaker's photography embodies a style that can only be described as "Lynchian." The Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain presents this collection of images that combine the surreal and the sensual to create new, nearly uncanny interpretations of feminine beauty.
David Lynch (born 1946) is the enigmatic mastermind behind some of the strangest and most beloved contemporary classics in cinema and television. His filmography includes Eraserhead (1977), Dune (1984), Blue Velvet (1986), Mulholland Drive (2001) and the cult television program Twin Peaks (1990-91), which he co-created with producer Mark Frost. He has received numerous prestigious accolades, including the Golden Lion lifetime achievement award at the Venice Film Festival in 2007. Lynch primarily lives and works in Los Angeles.
Wolfgang Tillmans: A Reader
This volume offers a panoramic collection of interviews and writings from an artist for whom language has always been a significant means of creative expression. Arranged chronologically, the assembled texts reflect Tillmans’ thinking on photography, music, politics, nightlife, astronomy, spirituality and activism. The sources are as varied as their content, with statements and conversations that originally appeared in exhibition catalogues rubbing up against social-media posts and song lyrics.
Whether discussing his own work as a photographer or drawing out the thoughts of others, Tillmans is a generous interlocutor with a refreshing clarity of thought. This visually rich and timely publication tracks Tillmans’ contributions to art and cultural criticism in tandem with the social and cultural shifts of the past 30 years.
Charles Bridge
Fotografická kniha s názvem Charles Bridge je poslední částí triptychu fotografa Jana Jindry. Pohybuje se v ní na hranici dokumentární a stylistické fotografie s douškem inspirace pražských výjevů Františka Drtikola. Jeho poslední publikace z nakladatelsví Bigg Boss představuje unikátní Karlův most tak jak ho známe, ale nevídáme. Monumentální stavba si nese pravdivé i ty lživé příběhy historie - jaké scény ze života turistů nebo obyvatelů centra Prahy ale vytváří dnes? Jan Jindra nepozorovaně sleduje společnost procházející touto více než stoletou stavbou, zachytává bizarní momenty, romantické osudy anebo obscéní výjevy svobody. Jindra jako "ztracený fotograf" vizuálně komunikuje estetický kontrast mezi moderní dobou a podobou architektury, jejíž stavební kámen byl položen v roce 1357.
Všechny proměny atmosféry na Karlově mostě Jan Jindra zachytil na 47 fotografiích. Osobní příběhy a zpovědi z časů mládí doplnili v úvodních textech Erik Tabery, Tomáš Pospěch nebo přímo zmiňovaný autor publikace.
Magic
From the hexing of presidents to a renewed interest in herbalism and atavistic forms of self-care, magic has furnished the contemporary imagination with mysterious and complex bodies of arcane thought and practice. This volume brings together writings by artists, magicians, historians, and theorists that illuminate the vibrant correspondences animating contemporary art's varied encounters with magical culture, inspiring a reconsideration of the relationship between the symbolic and the pragmatic.
Dispensing with simple narratives of re-enchantment, Magic illustrates the intricate ways in which we have to some extent always been captivated by the allure of the numinous. It demonstrates how magical culture's tendencies toward secrecy, occlusion, and encryption might provide contemporary artists with strategies of remedial communality, a renewed faith in the invocational power of personal testimony, and a poetics of practice that could boldly question our political circumstances, from the crisis of climate collapse to the strictures of socially sanctioned techniques of medical and psychiatric care.
Tracing its various emergences through the shadows of modernity, the circuitries of ritual media, and declarations of psychic self-defence, Magic deciphers the evolution of a 'magical-critical' thinking that productively complicates, contradicts and expands the boundaries of our increasingly weird present.

Městská galerie - Obrazy s příběhem
Devět předních českých výtvarníků - devět velkoplošných realizací na zdech domů v brněnském Bronxu!
František Skála, Eva Koťátková, Vendula Chalánková, Milivoj Husák, TIMO a další, včetně světově uznávaného Rusa Marata Danilyana!
Městská galerie v brněnském Bronxu bude už brzy největší pouliční galerií ve střední Evropě. Město Brno a spolek Nový Bronx spojili své síly v projektu, který chce vrátit někdejší sociálně-vyloučenou lokalitu nedaleko brněnského centra zpátky do městského celku. Lokalita známá jako Bronx prochází dynamickou proměnou a Městská galerie chce dále zvýšit její potenciál stát se kreativní čtvrtí s pestrým uličním životem, přitažlivou pro návštěvníky, kteří před sterilním turismem preferují možnost poznávat tak trochu "jiné město".
Příběh celého projektu, který odstartoval v roce 2019, včetně intimních profilů jednotlivých realizací, napsal iniciátor projektu, spisovatel Martin Reiner. Kniha je vybavena skvělými fotografiemi Petra Soldána a několika dalších fotografů.
Kniha vychází s podporou statutárního města Brna.
