French Painting 1830 - 1920
With over 450 works, this volume deals with the most important trends and groups in French painting from the middle of the 19th century to the first years of the 20th century: naturalism, realism, impressionism, postimpressionism, symbolism, or the Nabis. This is development is illustrated in the most beautiful paintings by Corot, Monet, Degas, Gauguin, Toulouse-Lautrec, Cézanne, Bonnard and many other painters.
Louvre
With more than eight million visitors a year, the Louvre is the museum with the most visits in the world. Its extensive collection of paintings reflects the history of European art from the 13th to the early 19th century. With over 400 plates, detail images, and descriptions, this volume provides an overview of the Louvre's collection of paintings.
Kostely
Kostely v české krajině vnímáme jako samozřejmost: stojí v téměř každé obci, dominují náměstím i panoramatům měst. Pro věřící je kostel místem duchovního spočinutí. Kromě toho je však i kulturním pokladem, jedinečným souborem vrcholných tvůrčích výkonů své doby a místa.
Představit čtenářům toto bohatství v jediné knize byl nelehký úkol. Z celkového počtu více než sedmi tisíc kostelů a kaplí bylo nutné vybrat jedinou setinu tak, aby reprezentovala celé toto množství napříč tisíciletím.
Snad vás naše kniha zavede na nejedno z vybraných míst. Protože teprve tam čeká jedinečný genius loci, duch místa, který je vždy nezaměnitelným součtem posvátné úcty a obdivuhodného uměleckého vzepětí.
Japanese Design Since 1945
Design in Japan is deeply rooted in the country's historic craft culture, profound understanding of materials and commitment to functionality. These qualities yield chairs, cups and other daily use items which are easy on the eye, comfortable in the hand and always do their job well. Even as mass manufacturing became widespread in the post-war period and cross-cultural exchanges began to take place with the West, Japan held fast to these core values and practices. This dedication has given rise to timeless objects of great beauty and utility as well as innovations in materials, form and technology.
Far beyond design icons such as the Kikkoman Soy Sauce Bottle, Sori Yanagi's Butterfly Stool, and the Sony Walkman (R), the products and objects created in Japan over the past seven decades serve to delight and draw admiration. In recent years, a new generation of designers, including Naoto Fukasawa, nendo and Tokujin Yoshioka, have taken Japanese creativity into exciting new territory: some are eliminating objects entirely, others are reimagining what an object could be. Though Japan has developed some of the world's most sophisticated robotic manufacturing complexes, many of its most appealing products are made by small factories and workshops whose artisans use their hands as much as machines.
This impressive volume is the most complete overview of Japanese design to date and its exquisite presentation is itself a beautiful example of Japanese design. Including profiles of over 70 creators, the book is based on the author's interviews with designers, their colleagues and family members, as well as leading curators and critics. The profiles are accompanied by short takes on iconic products and essays on related topics by Japanese and Western design experts. Featuring hundreds of objects, this volume will become the definitive work on the subject for many years to come.
Iberian Horses - Andalusians & Lusitanos
This book is intended as a tribute to the baroque horses of Spain and Portugal. For centuries impressive Andalusian stallions have enchanted human beings and held them spellbound. They exude a beautiful compact elegance and a royal aura. Whether in harness, under the saddle, or running wild and free—their magnificence is unique and infinite. These horses were considered an important status symbol and even used to be weighed in terms of gold. Their legacy is immortal and is passed down throughout the generations in the bloodlines of the Pura Raza Espanola. The horses of the Puro Sangre Lusitano from Portugal, with their unique character and noble appearance, are of the same origin as their Spanish relatives. At the beginning of the eighteenth century the Sun King Joao V celebrated the heyday of equestrianism at his court in Lisbon. Lusitanos were much prized and sought after by all the European royal courts. They exude a very special charisma, are extremely impressive and truly magnificent.
Beethovent hallani
Mindannyiunknak ismerős a kép a szenvedélyes, komor Beethovenről, aki elszántan küzdött, hogy felülkerekedjen a siketségen, aki hallása elvesztése után is több mint egy évtizeden át folytatta a zenélést és a komponálást. Ezt általában emberfeletti hősiességnek tekintjük, de az igazság az, hogy Beethovennek a siketségre adott válasza nagyon is emberi.
És azzal, hogy demisztifikáljuk a tetteit, sokat tanulhatunk Beethoven zenéjéről. Talán senki nem tud erről többet, mint Robin Wallace, aki nem csupán Beethoven zenéjének szentelte életét mint zenetudós, de szoros személyes tapasztalattal is rendelkezik a siketséggel kapcsolatban. Egy napon, negyvennégy éves korában Wallace felesége, Barbara azt tapasztalta, hogy nem hall a jobb fülére – a hallásvesztést az agydaganata kezelésére alkalmazott sugárterápia okozta. Három évvel később a bal fülére is megsiketült. Az életéből hátralévő nyolc és fél év alatt, bár cochleáris implantátumot használt, Barbara soha többé nem élhetett úgy, mint egy halló ember.
Wallace megmutatja nekünk, hogy a közhiedelemmel ellentétben Beethoven nem harcba szállt hősiesen a siketséggel, hanem annál valami még nehezebb és nagyobb feladatot hajtott végre: alkalmazkodott a halláskárosodáshoz, és megváltoztatta a zenével való kapcsolatát, s e folyamat közben a zene természetének fontos szempontjait ismerte meg. A zene létrehozása vizuális és fizikai folyamat lett számára, amely látható utasításokból és a hangszerek mozgásából és rezgéséből fakad. A siketség talán lelassította, de páratlan mélységű alkotásokhoz is vezette őt.
Beethoven alkotó életének története fonódik össze a könyvben Barbara és szerettei tapasztalataival, olyan szempontokat ismertetve meg velünk, olvasókkal, amelyeket csak a siketséggel élők mutathatnak meg. E szempontok könnyebben elérhetővé, érthetőbbé és átélhetőbbé teszik Beethoven zenéjét is, és segítenek megérteni, hogy egy fogyatékosság miként járulhat hozzá az élet teljességének megéléséhez és a fejlődéshez.
Kouzelná flétna
Světoznámý egyptolog a kulturolog Jan Assmann (* 1938) se přibližně od přelomu tisíciletí mimo jiné soustavně věnuje obrazům Egypta v postrenesanční evropské kultuře, zvláště na poli literatury či esejistiky (např. u Thomase Manna či Sigmunda Freuda) a v hudebně dramatické tvorbě (např. u Händela, Verdiho či Schönberga). Jeho brilantní rozbor Kouzelné flétny třetího velkého enigmatického díla naší kultury vedle Shakespearova Hamleta a Leonardovy Mony Lisy nabízí obsahový i žánrový klíč ke zdánlivé zmatenosti operního děje a umožňuje pochopením historických souvislostí oživit plnou estetickou působivost díla pro současnost.
Kouzelná flétna uvádí na jeviště rituál, který se před diváky nejenom odvíjí, ale také je subtilně a přitom intenzivně vtahuje do rituálního dění. V tom tkví jádro estetické ideje, na níž opera spočívá a z níž vyplývá vše ostatní, tedy jazyková a hudební dramaturgie díla. Je to myšlenka jedinečná a geniální; nevím o jiné opeře, jež by byla pojata takto kompletně jako výkon rituálu byť jsou vztahy mezi operou a rituálem obecně vzato těsné a v raných italských operách často nacházíme jednotlivé rituální scény, například výstupy zaklínání duchů nebo obětování. Přestože Kouzelná flétna v tomto propojení rituálu s operou dosahuje naprostého úspěchu, nemělo dílo v tomto ohledu žádné předchůdce a nenašlo ani následníky.

Pustým městem / In a Deserted City
Zcela neopakovatelné, uchvacující, krásné i děsivé. Snad takto lze pár slovy popsat zážitek z pusté Prahy během karantény, která postihla všechna města a místa nejen v naší zemi.
Nezažil to nikdo z naší generace, ani z generace našich rodičů a prarodičů. Snad to mine naše děti a my jim to budeme moci zprostředkovat jen jako vzpomínku, a to díky této knize zcela unikátních černobílých fotografií.
Pavel Hroch v nich zachytil naši metropoli, když na pár chvil byla jen sama pro sebe a sama sebou. Projděte se spolu s ním prázdnými ulicemi, postůjte na pustých náměstích, prohlédněte si její architektonické skvosty, jindy skryté za clonou všudypřítomného hlučícího davu. Průvodcem vám bude i osobitý text spisovatele Miloše Urbana.

Accidentally Wes Anderson
Wes Anderson's beloved films announce themselves through a singular aesthetic - one that seems too vivid, unique, and meticulously constructed to possibly be real. Not so - in Accidentally Wes Anderson, Wally Koval collects the world's most Anderson-like sites in all their faded grandeur and pop-pastel colours, telling the story behind each stranger than-fiction-location. Based on the viral online phenomenon and community of the same name, Accidentally Wes Anderson celebrates the unique aesthetic that millions of Anderson fans love - capturing the symmetrical, the atypical, the unexpected, the vibrantly patterned, and distinctively coloured in arresting photographs from around the world.
Authorised by Wes Anderson himself, and appealing to the millions who love his films, this book is also for fans of Cabin Porn and Van Life - and avid travellers and aspiring adventurers of all kinds.
A Day at Château de Chantilly
A comprehensive tour of the magnificent Château de Chantilly, its superlative art collection, important stables, and beautiful gardens. The Domaine de Chantilly is an exceptional treasure of French culture and heritage, rebuilt after the Revolution by Henri d'Orléans, duc d'Aumale--son of King Louis-Philippe--as a home and museum for his unrivaled collection of furniture, decorative arts, books, and paintings. These constitute the Condé Museum's extensive galleries--second only to the Louvre in France--with masterpieces including paintings by Raphael, Clouet, Poussin, and Ingres; the illuminated manuscript Les Tres Riches Heures du Duc de Berry; furniture; porcelains; drawings; and early photographs. Chantilly's elegant private apartments, kept precisely as they were during the duc d'Aumale's lifetime, are beautifully preserved examples of the uniquely French Louis Philippe style; its recently restored garden was designed by celebrated landscape architect André Le Nôtre; and the still-active Great Stables are the largest and most opulent in Europe. This slipcased volume offers rare access to one of France's most complete and beautiful stately homes and its world-class art collection that is carefully conserved today by the Institut de France.
Baumhorn Lipót
Baumhorn Lipót (1860–1932) a zsinagógaspecialisták legtermékenyebb képviselője volt Európában: 26 zsinagógát tervezett a Történelmi Magyarország területén, melyek közül 22 fel is épült. Pályája kezdetén lerótta tiszteletét elődei előtt keleties és historizáló alkotásaival, és a német alaprajzi- és kupolatípus adaptálásával megalkotta sajátos szerkezeti prototípusát. A századforduló csúcsműve Szeged neológ zsinagógája volt, melynek épu¨letornamentikája beszédes szimbolizmust rejt. Önálló, a magyaros szecessziót a modern funkcionalitással ötvöző stílusára ezt követően talált rá a ceglédi, az újvidéki és a Budapest Dózsa György úti zsinagógák tervezésekor. Az első világháború után a korszerű épu¨letszerkezetet többnyire klasszicizáló köntösbe bújtatta, melynek továbbra is szerves részét képezte az orientalizálás. A műfaj hattyúdala a gyöngyösi zsinagóga volt 1930 köru¨l, mely utoljára megidézte a közösségek századfordulós virágzását. Világi épületeivel együtt életműve közel 90 alkotásból áll; a főváros mellett Szegeden, Temesváron és Újvidéken székházak, lakó- és bérpaloták fémjelzik nevét.

Single-Family Houses in Switzerland & Austria
This title is dedicated to a common and very frequent construction task in Switzerland and Austria: the detached house. Current design trends and new interpretations of alpine building cultures, different life forms and realities, changed demands and needs can be discovered in what architects and designers have created in recent years. A particularly exciting phenomenon in this context is the creative handling of room arrangements and the spatial partitioning, for which very different solutions are found. For this volume, the author has selected outstanding contemporary concepts and designs that deserve to be noticed and appreciated much more. Between prefabricated houses on the one hand and fancy villas on the other, all presented homes are within a middle-class budget. Floor plans and elevations, key figures on square feet, facts on ecological aspects, materials used and, last but not least, the respective designers offer the potential builder an extremely practical benefit.
The Conservatory
Elegant and magnificent, conservatories reveal fascinating social, cultural, botanical, and engineering advances as they have evolved across history. First appearing in the eighteenth century as simple structures designed to protect fruit trees and other delicate plants from harsh European winters, conservatories became grand glass houses that spread across the European continent, to the Americas, and ultimately around the world.
Through evocative archival and contemporary photographs, drawings of landmark structures, and graceful, accessible text, The Conservatory celebrates the patrons and designers who advanced the technology and architectural majesty of these light-filled structures. The importance of conservatories continues to grow with efforts to conserve phenomenal plants and their environments.
