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.

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.

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!
