Taylor's Version
An original exploration and celebration of Taylor Swift, the world's biggest music star, as taught at the world's most prestigious university.
One of the biggest stars in the world, Taylor Swift became so popular for many reasons - but first and last thanks to her songs. In Taylor's Version, award-winning literary critic Professor Stephanie Burt charts the extraordinary journey from Swift's teen country debut to her most recent record-breaking achievement as the highest-grossing touring artist in the world. Based on her Harvard University course, Taylor Swift and Her World, Burt offers the first serious study of Swift that pays close attention to her talent as a songwriter first and foremost.
Drawing from musical and cultural criticism, poetry, economic theory, American history, as well as personal experience, Burt presents an insightful and heartfelt critical appreciation of Swift that delves into her life, her celebrity and her artistry. She explores how Swift's musical and public persona reflect her life and her craft, at once intimate and relatable. She considers the international community Swift's work has fostered, and she shows what makes Swift's body of work so important across styles, genres and generations.
Tracing a path through the Eras, Taylor's Version is a literary deep-dive into Swift's particular form of genius, revealing the remarkable impact of her career and showing how her songs - how music itself - can change lives.

The Look
Beautifully illustrated with more than 200 photographs, including never-before-seen images, The Look is a stunning journey through Michelle Obama's style evolution, in her own words for the first time.
In this celebration of style, from the moment she entered the public eye during her husband's U.S. Senate campaign through her time as the first Black First Lady of the United States and today as one of the country's most influential figures, Michelle Obama shares how she uses the beauty and intrigue of fashion to draw attention to her message.
Featuring the voices of Meredith Koop, Obama's trusted stylist, as well as her makeup artist Carl Ray, hairstylists Yene Damtew and Njeri Radway, and many of the designers who have dressed Obama for notable events, The Look brings readers behind the scenes not only to reveal how her most memorable looks came together but also to tell a powerful story about how we present ourselves.
Obama's intimate and candid stories illuminate how her approach to dressing has evolved throughout her life - from the colourful sheath dresses, cardigans, and brooches she wore during her time as First Lady to the bold suits, denim, and braids of her post-White House life and all the active looks and beautiful gowns in between.
In The Look, Michelle Obama explores the joy and the purpose of fashion and beauty and how - when wielded with grace and care - they can uplift and affirm the values one holds most dear. Confidence, she concludes, cannot be put on. But when you're wearing something that's intentional or beloved, clothing can make you feel like the best version of yourself.

Človek na okrAI. Postantropocén Viery Čakányovej
Monografia Jany Dudkovej Človek na okraAI. Postantropocén Viery Čákaynovej je analýzou doterajšej filmovej tvorby Viery Čákanyovej, ktorá do slovenskej kinematografie prináša úvahy o potrebe posthumanistického prehodnotenia ľudskej úlohy a údelu v dejinách planéty. Kniha sa venuje Čákanyovej filmom na pozadí aktuálneho premýšľania post- a transhumanizmu, ekokriticizmu, či nového materializmu, resp. na pozadí aktuálnych úvah o antropocéne a postantropocéne.
Kniha pozostáva zo štyroch kapitol, tie dopĺňa rozhovor autorky s Vierou Čákanyovou. Prvá kapitola nazerá súčasnú tvorbu Viery Čákanyovej v kontexte jej raného vývoja (mimoriadne košatá a zaujímavá študentská a televízna tvorba, ktorá už naznačuje jej budúce záujmy). Ďalšia predstavuje jej známu trilógiu (FREM, Biela na bielej, Poznámky z Eremocénu) z hľadiska opozície umelé vs. umelecké a následne sa monografia zaoberá špecifickými otázkami prehodnocovania úlohy človeka v kontexte planetárnych záujmov cez opozíciu príroda – kultúra a cez predstavenie konceptu transpersonálnej perspektívy ako špecifického prínosu k ekokritickej kinematografii.

In these pages, discover answers to questions like:
What does the song of a black hole sound like?
Which composition requires four helicopters and a string quartet with strong stomachs to play it correctly?
When should you feed your piano hay?
What does the “cat organ” sound like, and is it any more pleasing to the ear than the “hog harmonium”?

A HISTORY OF MUSIC UNLIKE ANY OTHER: Discover the code-writing of musical cryptography, the beauty of Renaissance “eye music,” musical hoaxes, lost masterpieces, fire organs and witches’ flutes, compositions by the Devil, the singer who invented the “visible voice,” the symphony designed to bring about the Apocalypse, and many more stories that seem too strange to be true, but are.
ART, HISTORY & MUSIC BUFFS: This incredible collection will strike a chord with fans of beautiful books and bizarre history and delight every reader with its rich depth and variety of research, which celebrates the boundless creativity of our musical imagination.
EXPERT AUTHOR: Edward Brooke-Hitching is the son of an antiquarian book dealer, a lifelong rare book collector, and a master of taking visual deep dives into unusual historical subjects, such as the maps of imaginary geography in The Phantom Atlas or the extraordinary history of the book in The Madman’s Library.

Zofia Kulik: Works
The first large-scale English language retrospective of one of Poland's leading contemporary artists, arriving at a transformative moment in her career.
Zofia Kulik's photographs are a psychic collage of the self. Inspired by eroticism, feminism, and the political and social developments of post-war Poland, her expansive work offers a radical critique of not only what it means to be an artist and a woman, but of what it means to be human. Featuring her most pivotal series - including The Splendor of Myself - this expansive publication charts her rich and varied career, journeying from her earlier collaborations as KwieKulik to the development of her solo work.
Shortly after graduating from the Warsaw Academy of Fine Arts in 1971, Kulik formed the artistic duo KwieKulik with her then partner Przemyslaw Kwiek. Running the Studio of Documentation and Propagation Activities (PDDiU) from their home in Warsaw, the pair created avant-garde films, photographs and objects, as well as performances, installations and interventionist texts. After splitting in 1987, Kulik expressed a new-found desire for her work to be present in museums and institutions. Subsequently developing the black-and-white photomontages for which she is now most famous, Kulik would combine complex patterns with often hundreds of images. Painstakingly detailed and often physically imposing, these images reflect an artist committed to exploring the murky terrains of the psyche.
Bringing together these pivotal works alongside Kulik's lesser-known but no less radical projects, this book features comprehensive yet accessible texts from leading writers to provide a much needed introduction to one of Poland's most important living artists.

Radost až na kost/ Bone Deep Joy - Jana Preková
Monografie Jany Prekové je reprezentativním příspěvkem k prezentaci moderních a inovativních trendů české scénografie posledních více než 40 let. Doc. Jana Preková (1956) se významně spolupodílela na progresivní proměně tohoto oboru.

Figure Drawing for Fashion Design, Vol. 2
A book that focuses on the type of drawings that fashion designers make to provide a detailed and accurate representation of the garment. In this highly detailed second volume about technical drawing in fashion design, authors Elisabetta “Kuky” Drudi and Tiziana Paci demonstrate how to translate 3D images to 2D. Aimed at fashion students and designers, it covers every aspect of garment representation for all kinds of clothing, from skirts to beachwear to accessories, including shape, proportions, cuts, tailoring details, and fabric types.
Technical drawings, or flats, are an irreplaceable means of communication to translate in a visually clear and legible way, the sketch of an outfit where stylistic details, actual volumes, lengths, and other elements of the garment are not displayed in depth. In straightforward, descriptive language, this book teaches readers the most effective ways to draw a detailed and accurate representation of the garment that pattern cutters and machinists can read and implement.

Art of the Nordic Nations
A lavishly illustrated reference on the art of the five Nordic nations, covering a wide range of mediums, movements and styles.
Modern art from the Nordic countries - Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland - tends to be represented by a few famous artists, and an aesthetic known for combining originality and continuity of tradition. Nevertheless, the region is far from homogeneous. Each country has its own artistic language, culture and history, sometimes co-existing with its neighbours in harmony, sometimes engaging them in hard-fought conflict.
This extensively illustrated survey offers a new history of Nordic art, from the emergence of Impressionism in the 1870s, through the avant-garde experiments of the early decades of the 20th century and onward to the Second World War and beyond. A broad range of artists are featured, some familiar and others less renowned: Anders Zorn and Hilma af Klint, Vilhelm Hammershoi and Franciska Clausen, Edvard Munch and Harriet Backer, Akseli Gallen-Kallela and Fanny Churberg, Finnur Jónsson and Öyvind Fahlström. Each artist's work is vividly placed in the context of their homeland as well as the international art movements of the time. The significant role of women artists is also showcased, chronicling their artistic legacy as well as their broader social contributions. The result is a comprehensive account of modern Nordic art in one impressive volume that is sure to become a definitive account.
