Italian Renaissance Altarpiece
The comprehensive study of the Italian Renaissance altarpiece from the 13th to the early 17th century
The altarpiece is one of the most distinctive and remarkable art forms of the Renaissance period. It is difficult to imagine an artist of the time-whether painter or sculptor, major or minor-who did not produce at least one. Though many have been displaced or dismembered, a substantial proportion of these works still survive. Despite the volume of material available, no serious attempt has ever been made to examine the whole subject in depth until now. The Italian Renaissance Altarpiece is the first comprehensive study of the genre to examine its content and subject matter in real detail, from the origins of the altarpiece in the 13th century to the time of Caravaggio in the early 1600s. It discusses major developments in the history of these objects throughout Italy, covers the three key categories of Renaissance altarpiece-"immagini" (icons), "historie" (narratives), and "misteri" (mysteries)-and is illustrated with 250 beautiful reproductions of the artworks.
John Craxton
Uplifting and engaging, this story recounts the life and career of a rebellious 20th-century British artist
Born into a large, musical, and bohemian family in London, the British artist John Craxton (1922-2009) has been described as a Neo-Romantic, but he called himself a "kind of Arcadian". His early art was influenced by Blake, Palmer, Miro, and Picasso. After achieving a dream of moving to Greece, his work evolved as a personal response to Byzantine mosaics, El Greco, and the art of Greek life. This book tells his adventurous story for the first time. At turns exciting, funny, and poignant, the saga is enlivened by Craxton's ebullient pictures. Ian Collins expands our understanding of the artist greatly-including an in-depth exploration of the storied, complicated friendship between Craxton and Lucian Freud, drawing on letters and memories that Craxton wanted to remain private until after his death.
I See a City: Todd Webbs New York
I See a City: Todd Webb's New York focuses on the work of photographer Todd Webb produced in New York City in the 1940s and 1950s. Webb photographed the city day and night, in all seasons and in all weather. Buildings, signage, vehicles, the passing throngs, isolated figures, curious eccentrics, odd corners, windows, doorways, alleyways, squares, avenues, storefronts, uptown and downtown, from the Brooklyn Bridge to Harlem. He created a richly textured portrait of the everyday life and architecture of New York. Webb's work is clear, direct, focused, layered with light and shadow, and captures the soul of these places shaped by the friction and frisson of humanity.
A native of Detroit, Webb studied photography in the 1930s under the guidance of Ansel Adams at the Detroit Camera Club, served as a navy photographer during World War II, and then went on to become a successful postwar photographer. His work is in many museum collections, including The Museum of Modern Art in New York and the National Gallery of Art in Washington.
Clean Living Under Difficult Circumstances
From the grandiose histories of grand state building projects to the minutiae of street signs and corner pubs, from the rebuilding of capital cities to the provision of the humble public toilet, Clean Living in Difficult Circumstances argues for the city as a socialist project. Combining memoir, history, portraits of particular places and things, Hatherley argues for those who have tried to create and imagine a better modernity, both in terms of architecture, such as Zaha Hadid or Ian Nairn, in terms of the urban space, like Jane Jacobs or Marshall Berman, and the way we see the world more widely, like Mark Fisher or Adam Curtis. Together, these outline a vision of the city as both as a place of political argument and dispute, and as a space of everyday experience, one that we shape as much as it shapes us.
Amazônia
Sebastiao Salgado traveled the Brazilian Amazon and photographed the unparalleled beauty of this extraordinary region for six years: the forest, the rivers, the mountains, the people who live there-an irreplaceable treasure of humanity.
In the book's foreword Salgado writes: "For me, it is the last frontier, a mysterious universe of its own, where the immense power of nature can be felt as nowhere else on earth. Here is a forest stretching to infinity that contains one-tenth of all living plant and animal species, the world's largest single natural laboratory."
Salgado visited a dozen indigenous tribes that exist in small communities scattered across the largest tropical rainforest in the world. He documented the daily life of the Yanomami, the Ashaninka, the Yawanawa, the Suruwaha, the Zo'e, the Kuikuro, the Waura, the Kamayura, the Korubo, the Marubo, the Awa, and the Macuxi-their warm family bonds, their hunting and fishing, the manner in which they prepare and share meals, their marvelous talent for painting their faces and bodies, the significance of their shamans, and their dances and rituals.

Vermeer
Despite numbering at just 35, his works have prompted a New York Times best seller; a film starring Scarlett Johansson and Colin Firth; record visitor numbers at art institutions from Amsterdam to Washington, DC; and special crowd-control measures at the Mauritshuis, The Hague, where thousands flock to catch a glimpse of the enigmatic and enchanting Girl with a Pearl Earring, also known as the "Dutch Mona Lisa". In his lifetime, however, the fame of Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675) barely extended beyond his native Delft and a small circle of patrons. After his death, his name was largely forgotten, except by a few Dutch art collectors and dealers. Outside of Holland, his works were even misattributed to other artists. It was not until the mid-19th century that Vermeer came to the attention of the international art world, which suddenly looked upon his narrative minutiae, meticulous textural detail, and majestic planes of light, spotted a genius, and never looked back. This 40th anniversary edition showcases the complete catalog of Vermeer's work, presenting the calm yet compelling scenes so treasured in galleries across Europe and the United States into one monograph of utmost reproduction quality. Crisp details and essays tracing Vermeer's career illuminate his remarkable ability not only to bear witness to the trends and trimmings of the Dutch Golden Age but also to encapsulate an entire story in just one transient gesture, expression, or look.
Krkonoše za císaře pána
Ako vyzerali najvyššie hory Českej republiky v časoch prvých lyžiarov a turistov? Ktoré horské chaty stoja dodnes neporušené a ktoré by ste hľadali márne? Lyžovali dámy v sukni a klobúku? Svedectvo o tom zanechali prví profesionálni a amatérski fotografi. Viac ako 140 snímok Krkonôš vybral, upravil a textami doplnil vlastník rodinnej zbierky starých fotografií Pavel Scheufler. Kniha nie je len cenným svedectvom o premene týchto veľhôr, ale aj návodom ako čítať fotografie tak, aby sme počuli pútavé príbehy, ktoré rozprávajú.
Roman Ondák. Fail to Fall
Prvá slovensko-anglická publikácia venovaná Romanovi Ondakovi (1966) približuje tvorbu vo svete najprestížnejšieho slovenského umelca v metonymickej skratke - na projekte Fail to Fall z roku 2010. Názov tohto diela je vskutku príznačný. Ondak sústredil desiatky fotografií zaznamenávajúcich padáky, ktorých riadený, naprogramovaný pád zlyhal a ocitli sa na nesprávnych miestach - v korunách stromov, na ruke Krista Spasiteľa v Riu de Janeiro či na fakle Sochy Slobody... Konceptuálny posun faktov do nových, originálnych situácií, ale aj ďalšie tvorivé stratégie autora, ktorý nechce sám na seba upozorňovať, osvetľuje kunsthistorik Aurel Hrabušický. Publikácia vychádza v spolupráci s galériou PHOTOPORT.

Igor Minárik - Kresbomaľby
Monografia predstavuje prierez autorskou tvorbou Igora Minárika, jedinečného predstaviteľa analytických tendencií, ktorý je na výtvarnej scéne aktívny viac ako 45 rokov. Prostredníctvom hlavného textu Daniely Čarnej a hlavne bohatého obrazového materiálu ponúka čitateľovi a divákovi vizuálny zážitok z objavovania rôznych vrstiev obrazu. Ten je výsekom, v symbolickej rovine presahujúcim jeho plochu do nekonečných priestorov univerza. Minárikove obrazy fungujú ako časti nikdy nekončiacej megaskladačky, hyperkoláže, útržkov poznania, ktoré ponúkajú divákovi nevšedný až mystický zážitok. Popri hlavnom texte si môžeme prečítať aj kratšie sprievodné texty Rudolfa Filu a Jiřího Valocha všetky aj v anglickom preklade.

Síla i budoucnost jest národu národnost
Tato kniha je výstupem projektu Architektura a česká politika v 19. 21. století, na němž tým Katedry teorie a dějin umění UMPRUM pracuje od roku 2018. Autoři nechtěli mapovat politickou architekturu českých zemí v 19. století, nýbrž zkoumali různé podoby interakcí architektury a politiky. Zajímalo je, jak architektonické formy reprezentovaly ideologické a sociálně-psychologické obsahy nebo jak spoluvytvářely mocenské vztahy a politické pozice. Motto v názvu knihy, jehož autorem je architekt a mecenáš Josef Hlávka, poukazuje k ústřednímu tématu svazku úloze architektury při formování moderního českého národa. Kromě toho autoři ukazují, jak monumentální architektura z pojednávaného období vyjadřovala či formovala loajalitu občanů ke státu či dynastii, jak přispívala k rozvoji demokratických institucí a občanské společnosti, případně jakou roli hrála v sociálních procesech spojených s industrializací a modernizací. Grafika Tereza Hejmová a Kristýna Žáčková. Kniha vychází v česko-anglické verzi za podpory Ministerstva kultury České republiky v rámci Programu aplikovaného výzkumu a vývoje národní a kulturní identity (NAKI II).
Palo Macho (doplnené vydanie)
Palo Macho (1965) patrí k výrazným predstaviteľom súčasného umeleckého skla. Prepája farby so sklom (jeho povrchom) na podobných princípoch, ako je tomu v klasickej maľbe. Nemá však k dispozícii plátno, ale sklenenú platňu, nie farby, ktorých tóny vidí okamžite, ale sklárske emaily, listre a drahé kovy, ktoré svoj výsledný odtieň vydajú až potom, čo prejdú taviacim a vypaľovacím procesom v sklárskej peci. Maľba má niekoľko vrstiev: podmaľba sa prekrýva s vnútornou maľbou i s maľbou na povrchu. Aj preto musí byť všetko vopred vymyslené, naplánované, overené. Machove maľby na skle, sú zvláštnym druhom maliarstva. K všetkým týmto výrazovým prostriedkom pristupuje ešte jeden aktívny a kľúčový prvok – transparentnosť sklenej tabule a s ňou aj svetlo, ktoré je schopné meniť, dotvárať a oživovať vnímanie jeho diel.
Druhé vydanie reprezentačnej monografie predstavuje Machovu tvorbu slovom a obrazom: jeho dielom vás sprevádzajú historičky umenia Katarína Bajcurová a Sylva Petrová, ktoré vo svojich textoch osvetľujú princípy jeho uvažovania a tvorby, ako aj miesto v širších medzinárodných kontextoch súčasného skla. Zásadne rozšírené a doplnené vydanie knihy prináša tiež text Meira Lubora Dohnala a rozhovor Petra Michaloviča s autorom o interpretáciách – spoluprácach s inými významnými osobnosťami slovenského vizuálneho umenia (Ľudovít Fulla, Rudolf Fila, Jozef Jankovič, Ivan Csudai, Laco Teren, Jana Hojstričová, Svätopluk Mikyta) a ukážky spoločných diel. Zároveň mapuje aj najnovšiu tvorbu autora do roka 2020. Samostatná časť je venovaná fotodokumentácii dôležitých výstavných projektov.
Knihu vydáva vydavateľstvo Petrus v spolupráci s VŠVU a o.z. Atelier Studená10. Publikácia vyšla s finančnou podporou FPU.
Marimekko: The Art of Printmaking
Finnish for 'Mary's dress', Marimekko was founded in 1951 by Armi Ratia. Going against the restrictive fashion of the period, it produced flowing dresses in abstract patterns and vibrant colours, which remain the house's signature to this day. Over the last eight decades, Marimekko's artists have created some 3,500 designs, which have graced clothing, bags, accessories, ceramics, bedding, fabric, and more.
Blending archival photographs and advertisements with modern campaign imagery as well as newly commissioned photography, Marimekko: The Art of Printmaking tells the story of the house's most iconic designs. Four distinct sections guide the reader through the Marimekko philosophy and lifestyle, via its factory in Herttoniemi, where fabrics have been created from the very beginning, on to a rich sourcebook of pattern and finally to the brand's ultra-sustainable, super-creative future.
In 'Art of Printmaking', follow the making of the iconic Unikko (poppy) print, its multiple variants and colourways, and discover how an initial idea evolves from sketch to dress, through colour trials and printing table. Learn Marimekko's unique 'Language of Pattern', through in-depth explorations of its iconic patterns, interspersed with the themes - floral, minimalistic, architectural - that make up Marimekko's vivid lexicon. In 'Making Marimekko' and 'Marimekko Next', discover the past, present, and future of this creative powerhouse, in the voices of its own creative talents. Dive into the exhilarating tale of Marimekko's success and an unstoppable whirlwind of breath-taking imagery.

Lost in Reverie
As adults in a fast-paced modern world, many can hardly afford to enjoy the simplest things in life today. With data and technology being at the forefront of our increasingly digital lifestyles, it is becoming almost impossible to make time for pure creativity, imagination, and freedom of expression - unless we start allowing our minds to wander fearlessly into the unknown and celebrate the art of doing nothing, whenever we can.
LOST IN REVERIE sets out to capture the magic and mystique of dreamscapes, from the comforting to the unsettling and everything else in between. The book will comprise art and illustration featuring intriguing concepts and styles that explore the realms between the real and surreal; becoming a means of escape from the dreariness of everyday and a beautiful reminder to never stop dreaming.
