Street Art New York: 2000-2010
New York is a street art Mecca, boasting a vast outdoor gallery which encompasses walls, fences, sidewalks and just about any other available surface. Featured in this dynamic collection are approximately 200 images of works by artists such as New Yorkers Swoon, Judith Supine, Dan Witz, Skewville, WK Interact, L.A.'s Shepard Fairey, Brazil's Os Gemeos, Denmark's Armsrock, France's Space Invader, C215, Mr. Brainwash, Germany's Herakut, London's Nick Walker and the infamous Banksy. This book offers a compelling portrait of the development of urban art in the noughties in one of its most important and supportive communities.
Harry Gruyaert: India
For more than thirty years, Harry Gruyaert has been recording the subtle chromatic vibrations of Eastern and Western light. His photographs attest to his singular vision: his interest in story, public space and unexpected scenes.
This book brings together 125 of Gruyaert's photographs of India, many published here for the first time. From Gujarat to Kerala, Gruyaert captured the quintessence of this multifaceted country. Streets bustling with activity in New Delhi or Calcutta; modest villages in Tamil Nadu or Rajasthan; ghats of the great religious city of Benares; women in saffron and purple saris beating grain, dyers busy at smoky vats, an encampment of nomadic shepherds at twilight... Gruyaert's India is saturated with colour, light and noise - and sometimes silence too.
These images move beyond stereotype to present the plurality of India. 'Taking a photo means both seeking contact and refusing it, being at once the most and the least present,' says the photographer. It is a question of teasing out wonder, of capturing what characterizes places. The search for density within the frame makes photography a physical experience - one that is particularly well represented here, in this multi-sensorial journey through India.
The Architecture of Yemen and Its Reconstruction
First published in 2007, The Architecture of Yemen was the first book to offer an in-depth investigation into the characteristic architecture of country and the result of nearly two decades of research. This new, revised edition includes drawings, documentation and information on the building and reconstruction projects carried out from 2008 to 2014 at locations in Hadrumat and Dawan. Moving beyond the major cities, Salma Samar Damluji explores the architecture of regions that could be said to be the last strongholds of traditional Arab architecture. The Architecture of Yemen and its Reconstruction features a wealth of insights from both the master builders and home owners and contains photographs and surveyed drawings of many locations that are now extremely difficult to visit. It also examines in detail building techniques and methods little known outside of Yemen and includes well-known UNESCO World Heritage Sites as well as remarkable buildings from less-visited areas. Praise for The Architecture of Yemen Historians, planners and architects will find much useful detail in The Architecture of Yemen and the general reader much charm in the beguiling photos. In addition, those concerned by the rash of more recent and hasty development will find some hope for the inspiration of a new generation of master builders in Yemen and the Gulf.

Iluminované rukopisné zlomky z oblasti latinské kultury
Ve Sbírce grafiky a kresby Národní galerie v Praze je uloženo 115 středověkých a raně novověkých rukopisných zlomků původem z různých zemí oblasti latinské kultury, které byly doposud v odborné literatuře podchyceny nedostatečně. Speciální katalog iluminovaných zlomků zpracovaný na základě nového výzkumu je proto důležitým krokem ke zpřístupnění dosud nepříliš známého ikonografického materiálu. Katalog byl vytvořen v souladu s požadavky soudobé kodikologie na popis vnějších i vnitřních znaků a vybaven obrazovou přílohou. Jako základní evidenční pomůcka umožní badatelům orientovat se v rozsáhlém fondu vyobrazení nejrůznějších námětů a může se tak stát východiskem práce nejen historiků, kodikologů a historiků umění, ale i odborníků v dalších vědeckých disciplínách, domácích i zahraničních, jimž slouží anglická sumarizující stať a ikonografický rejstřík.
Ženy umelkyne (Umenie v skratke)
Ženy sú dlhodobo obľúbeným námetom umelcov, ale ich prínos ako umelkýň je dodnes nedocenený. Nemusia už síce tvoriť anonymne či pod mužským pseudonymom, ale ešte v roku 1989 položila skupina Guerilla Girls newyorskej verejnosti otázku: „Musia byť ženy nahé, aby sa dostali do Metropolitného múzea?" Odpoveď na túto otázku nájdete aj vo svojej knižnici - stačí si prelistovať dejiny umenia. Ešte lepšie však urobíte, ak siahnete po knižke, ktorá reviduje tradičný kánon a predstaví vám tvorbu päťdesiatich významných umelkýň od 16. storočia až po súčasnosť. Artemisia Gentileschi, Georgia O´Keeffe, Frida Kahlo či Louise Bourgeois... Schválne, ktoré z týchto mien poznáte?

Prostor je věnován také úspěšnému československému pavilonu na Expo 70 v Ósace, významu sklářského umění, reflexi japonských zahrad, ale rovněž estetice a architektuře čajového obřadu, památkové péči nebo specifickému pojetí prostoru ma. Vyjmenované tematické okruhy doprovází rovněž řada reprodukcí uměleckých děl a fotografií českých a japonských autorů. Čtenářsky zajímavé může být několik kapitol pojatých formou rozhovoru s architekty i teoretiky, například exkluzivní interview s Fudžimorim Terunobuem a Vladimírem Šlapetou.

Durers Journeys
An exploration of Durer's career and legacy as an international traveling artist
The visual legacy of Durer's travels extends far beyond his lifetime and throughout Europe, and the documents illuminating them offer unique insights into the distinctive ways Durer conducted and managed his career, making him an intriguing-and even controversial-figure. This generously illustrated book examines the career of preeminent Renaissance artist Albrecht Durer (1471-1528) as an international traveler, addressing his relations with artists from Italy to the Low Countries, including Giovanni Bellini, Joos van Cleve, Jan Gossaert, Lucas van Leyden, Quentin Massys, and Bernard van Orley. Bringing together paintings, drawings and prints, the book examines Durer as an artist-entrepreneur, explorer, and innovator of artistic theory. Durer's treatises and letters, and his detailed journal documenting his journey to the Low Countries in 1520-1, offer insights into his artistic practices and encounters with artists and patrons, as well as the nature of travel in the early 16th century.

David Lynch
David Lynch has always been in the spotlight as a filmmaker, directing some of the most iconic movies ever made, but as a visual artist, he is less widely known. Lynch delights in the physicality of painting and likes to stimulate all the senses in his work.

Many of these works reveal the dark underpinnings behind Lynch's often-macabre movies. Others explore his fascination with texture and collage. Throughout, Lynch's characteristic style-surreal, stylish, and even humorous-shines through. An introduction by music journalist and Lynch biographer Kristine McKenna, along with a thought- provoking essay by curator Stijn Huijts, offers fascinating new information and perspectives on Lynch's life and career. This book reveals an unexplored facet of Lynch's oeuvre and affirms that he is as brilliant a visual artist as he is a filmmaker.
Citizen First, Designer Second
After a career of more than 20 years spanning four countries, globally-renowned graphic designer, illustrator and visual branding consultant Rejane Dal Bello explains how choosing (or being chosen by) a design career has come to matter to her - and how it can matter to others no matter whether they are also seeking a creative path or are simply curious about the value and possibilities afforded by creativity. Through a mixture of personal anecdote and professional experience, Rejane honestly and emotively reflects on her life and processes, and how they have been shaped by the beauty, challenges and serendipity of design and the visual arts.

Chrám Matky Boží před Týnem
Monografie Chrám Matky Boží před Týnem v období středověku vznikla díky dlouholetému zájmu o tuto výjimečnou památku. Je založena především na zhodnocení významu architektonické skulptury chrámu a jejího dosahu v rámci pražského sochařství v období vrcholného a pozdního středověku.
Díky své mimořádné důležitosti na sebe tento staroměstský monument soustředil pozornost celé řady předních českých historiků a historiků umění. Kniha je věnována v hluboké úctě profesoru Jaromíru Homolkovi in memoriam, který se velmi výrazně zasloužil o poznání středověké podoby Týnského chrámu.
PACKAGED FOR LIFE: Beer, Wine & Spirits
In our haste to consume the things we love, we often disregard or discard packaging without a second thought. While many would argue that they bear no significance to our daily lives or should be done away with entirely in our quest to save the environment, there is a lot more to packaging design than meets the eye. On top of conveying a brand's personality, purpose, or message meaningfully and embodying its contents in ways that catch the eye, a seemingly ordinary bottle or box can become an artist or designer's canvas for extraordinary creative expression.
Packaged for Life: Beer, Wine, & Spirits explores some of the most compelling ways and interesting visuals with which popular spirits are packaged to tantalise you into indulging in your tipples of choice. It serves as a vessel of inspiration through which we can recognise, appreciate, and celebrate the unnoticed or overlooked tactile beauty in everyday product packaging.
The book comes with a booklet of fun facts about alcohol, including the different ways to give a toast, and hangover cures around the world!
