HAIRDRESSER
NO.
(pointing to Claire)
That is EXACTLY what she asked for.
FLEABAG
No it's not. We want compensation.
HAIRDRESSER
Claire?
CLAIRE
I've got two important meetings and I look like a pencil.
HAIRDRESSER
NO. Don't blame me for your bad choices. Hair isn't everything.
FLEABAG
Wow.
HAIRDRESSER
What?
FLEABAG
Hair. Is. Everything. We wish it wasn't so we could actually think about something else occasionally. But it is. It's the difference between a good day and a bad day. We're meant to think that it is a symbol of power, a symbol of fertility, some people are exploited for it and it pays your fucking bills. Hair is everything, Anthony.
The Self-Portrait
Self-portraiture shows no sign of losing its ability to capture the public imagination. Given our current proclivity to snap and share 'selfies' in seconds, it is unsurprising to find a renewed interest in the genre among general audiences and students. Self-portraits have the power to illuminate a range of universal concerns, from identity, purpose and authenticity, to frailty, futility and mortality.
In this volume, curator Natalie Rudd expertly casts fresh light on the self-portrait and its international appeal, exploring the historical contexts within which self-portraits have proliferated and considering the meanings they hold today. With commentaries on works by artists ranging from Jan van Eyck and Artemisia Gentileschi to Francisco Goya, Pablo Picasso, Frida Kahlo and Jenny Saville, the book explores the emotive and expressive potential of self-portraiture, and its capacities to distance or to demystify. Can self-portraits offer windows into artistic process? Is there ever a singular identity to be captured? Is it necessary for a self-portrait to depict the human form? In her vibrant and timely discussion, Rudd dissects these and other important questions, revealing the shifting faces of individuality and selfhood in an age where we are interrogating notions of personal identity more than ever before.
Where's My Guitar?
A fascinating insight into the golden-age of 1970s and 80s rock and roll told through the eyes of music legend Bernie Marsden and, most notably, his role in establishing one of the world's most famous rock bands of all time - Whitesnake.
Touring with AC/DC. Befriending The Beatles. Writing one of the world's most iconic rock songs.
This is the story of a young boy from a small town who dreamt of one day playing the guitar for a living - and ended up a rock n' roll legend.
It follows Bernie Marsden's astonishing career in the industry - from tours in Cold War Germany and Franco's Spain, to meeting and befriending George Harrison and touring Europe with AC/DC. It's a story of hard graft, of life on the road, of meeting and playing with your heroes, of writing iconic rock songs - most notably the multi-million selling hit 'Here I Go Again' - and of being in one of the biggest rock bands of all time. At age 30, Bernie left Whitesnake due to serious conflict with his management, something he explores in this memoir for the very first time.
Packed with stories and encounters with the likes of Ringo Starr, Elton John, Cozy Powell, Ozzy Osborne, B.B. King and Jon Lord, this is not just a remarkable look into the highs and lows of being a true music legend, but an intimate account of the revolutionary impact rock and roll music has offered to the world.
The Great Builders
The Great Builders surveys the careers of forty great architects whose engineering skills were crucial to their success. Sixteen nationalities and seven centuries of architectural innovation make for a survey of spectacular scope and depth: from churches and fortresses to bridges and high-tech skyscrapers, it includes masterpieces from all over the world and covers 700 years of architectural history.
Here is Brunelleschi, who built the 'unbuildable' dome of Florence Cathedral; Sinan, a Christian engineer who became chief architect to the Ottoman court; Joseph Paxton, scribbling down a design for the Crystal Palace, London, on a piece of blotting paper; and James Bogardus, an early American evangelist of the opportunities offered by cast-iron architecture.
Rapid advances in industrial production inspired experiments with new materials and techniques, gradually allowing a whole new architecture to emerge: reinforced concrete, plate glass and steel were central to the creations of Le Corbusier, Auguste Perret and Mies van der Rohe, for instance; and, in the High-Tech architecture of the present day - represented by Norman Foster, Frank Gehry and Santiago Calatrava, among others - computer-aided design has seemingly tested the boundaries of the possible.
Introduction to Architectural Technology
Understanding the relationship between design and technology is critical to the understanding of architecture. This book clearly explains the core aspects of architectural technology: structural physics, structural elements and forms, heating, lighting, environmental control and computer modelling. The third edition includes six new case studies, more on structural types, new information on construction detailing, passive building principles and designing for different climatic conditions. This essential introduction to architecture will help students to integrate their design thinking with the appropriate structural and environmental solutions.
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?

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.
