Peter Július Kern - Maliar Liptova / Painter of the Liptov Region
Publikácia je katalógom k výstave v Galérii Nedbalka. Peter Július Kern zastáva významné miesto v dejinách slovenského výtvarníctva. Inšpiráciou mu bol predovšetkým samotný Liptov. Pre neho nepredstavoval neznámu krajinu, ktorú by chcel spoznávať – naopak, dôverne ju poznal a mal ju úprimne rád. Vďaka tomu majú jeho diela špecifický náboj. Nesnažil sa zachytiť krajinu čo najvernejšie, realisticky, ale usiloval sa preniesť pocit, náladu a emóciu, ktorú v ňom krajina vzbudzovala.
Piesne z hôr a dolín
Výnimočná a rozsahom ojedinelá zbierka obsahuje 272 ľudových piesní z Podpoľania, Novohradu a Hontu. ktoré viac ako polstoročie zbieral významný slovenský folklorista, hudobník, pedagóg a predník Ľudovej hudby Ďatelinka Ondrej Molota, rodák z Fiľakova v Novohrade, generačne a účinkovaním spätý s Podpoľaním. V uvedených troch regiónoch autor desaťročia realizoval terénny výskum, neraz aj za účasti skladateľa a zberateľa Svetozára Stračinu. Harmonizáciu piesní realizovali naslovovzatí odborníci Štefan Molota, Slavomír Melicherčík, Pavol Chlebničan a Richard Golian.
Zbierka je bohato ilustrovaná tematickými reprodukciami umeleckých diel renomovaného výtvarníka Miroslava Bárdiho, ktorého umelecká tvorba je orientovaná na prírodu a hudobné motívy najmä regiónov Podpoľania, Novohradu a Hontu. Druhou skupinou ilustrácií sú fotografie zobrazujúce podpoliansku prírodu a krajinu od známeho fotografa Antona Trebuľu-Kečkára z Hriňovej, ktorý za svoju tvorbu získal viacero ocenení. Publikácia obsahuje mnoho fotografií z archívu autora a krátku biografiu Ondreja Molotu.
Kondice a kognice
Kolektivní monografie vymezuje oblast svého výzkumu dvěma průsečíky. Jedním z nich jsou kognitivní přístupy v humanitních vědách – lingvistice, pedagogice a teatrologii. Druhým průsečíkem či ústředním tématem knihy je kondice a její nabývání ve vzdělávacím procesu, a to jak v obecné pedagogice, tak v pedagogice herectví a psychosomatických disciplín. Kondice je zkoumána jako nezbytný psychosomatický aspekt lidského bytí. V popředí zájmu badatelů a badatelek se ocitají témata hry, tvořivosti, svobody, umělecké tvorby, její recepce a pedagogiky. V nových perspektivách je rozvíjen rovněž výzkum psychosomatické disciplíny Dialogické jednání s vnitřním partnerem prof. Ivana Vyskočila. Kniha Kondice a kognice představuje jeden z prvních pokusů o zmapování oblastí kognitivního výzkumu v humanitních vědách v českém prostředí s akcentem na dramatickou kulturu.
Monografie obsahuje tyto kapitoly:
Úvod: Historický kontext kognitivních věd (Martina Musilová) / Fascinace sdílením: O vzájemných inspiracích kognitivně-kulturní lingvistiky a dialogického jednání (Jasňa Pacovská) / Nejen „de globulis gaudiensis“: Kognitivnělingvistický pohled na konceptualizaci radosti v češtině a u Ivana Vyskočila (Irena Vaňková) / Tvorba a percepce významu jako víceúrovňový proces: Teorie Mihaila Antoviće v analýze divadelního představení (Šárka Havlíčková Kysová) / Kultivace trojí pozornosti - performerské, divácké a autorské - ve výuce pohybové disciplíny (Mish Rais, Jana Novorytová, Markéta Machková) / Dialogické psaní: Možnosti a meze využívání dialogického jednání při psaní scénářů - pokus o introspekci (Michal Čunderle) / Plavčík to vidí jinak: Reflexe pedagogického experimentu v souvislosti s dialogickým jednáním (Zuzana Jurechová) / Problematika kondice ve sféře středoškolské edukace: neoaristotelský přístup (Vít Zeman) / Endogenní neurální síť a její možné aplikace v kognitivní teatrologii (Marie Adamová) / Původ introspekce: Koevoluce přírody a kultury (Vít Bartoš) / Dokud nám nenarostou nové pupeny (Martina Musilová)
Jak funguje hudba
Hudba je radost, ale taky fyzika, technologie a obchod.
Světoznámý hudebník David Byrne nadšeně a zároveň erudovaně zkoumá hudbu od prvotního nápadu po finální nahrávku a distribuci. Kniha Jak funguje hudba ohledává, proč nás vzrušuje symfonie, které písně jsou schopné nás dojmout a jak obecně hudba utváří lidskou zkušenost. Byrne zároveň vysvětluje, jak v každé fázi jejího vzniku a šíření hudbu ovlivňují a formují politické, ekonomické či společenské podmínky a jak nástup nahrávací technologie ve dvacátém století navždy změnil náš vztah k hraní, produkci a poslechu hudby. David Byrne tak o hudbě vypráví nejen jako insider hudebního průmyslu a profesionální muzikant, ale rovněž coby historik a antropolog, pamětník a sociolog. Zákonitosti hudební produkce přitom odhaluje a ukazuje i na své vlastní tvorbě s Talking Heads a mnoha spolupracovníky, od Briana Ena po Fatboy Slima, nebo na hudbě umělců, jako jsou Patti Smith, Ramones, Blondie a další.
The New York Timer bestseller
Designers on Sofas
The first title in a new series from tastemakers Monocle, this is a fun, informative collection of portraits and biographical interviews with 50 architects from all over the world sitting on their sofas revealing their style, wit, personality - and sofa choices.
Bringing architects and their sofas together in a lighthearted way, this book aims to find out what makes some of the world's most famous architects and designers tick. Each of its fifty entries features a portrait of an architect on their sofa, taken at their own home or workplace, sometimes with their family, their pets or with other possessions, each photograph capturing essential details about the architect's life, work and style. An in-depth interview accompanies each entry, so that readers find out not just about their sofa (for example whether or not they designed it, and if not why they chose it, and who it was designed by) but also about their life, their work, what they're passionate about and what they struggle with.
Taken together, this collection of photographic portraits and interviews provides unique insights into the minds and lives of some of the greatest architects of our time. In addition, a special foldout presents 100 architect-designed sofas from the last century with designs by Le Corbusier, Alvar Aalto, Charlotte Perriand, Verner Panton, Cini Boeri, Zaha Hadid, John Pawson, and many more.
Music’s Odyssey
A triumphant journey through the history of Western classical music and its great composers
'My aim in this book is to offer an invitation to the glorious long voyage of Western classical music for all those who enjoy and love it, and seek to deepen their enjoyment and love without getting caught up in musicology and technicalities: an entry to Aladdin's cave, an injunction to 'taste and see' re-angled for the sense of hearing in all its complex and various modes. Not historical, but broadly chronological and thematic, from the earliest adventures in notation up to the present day - some fourteen centuries of continuity and interruptions, revolutions and renewals, complements and contrasts, via many detailed descriptions of individual composers and individual pieces.
'In part, it is an account of how music is made - its core of practice, skills, conventions, traditions - but also an attempt to chart the evolution of expression, what is being said, what felt, what communicated 'from the heart to the heart' - how music works upon its listeners, how it moves and stirs, how it reaches and appeals to the highest flights and deepest places (and everything between) of the organising pattern-making mind, the ebb and flow of the sensual body, the centres of emotion.
'Everything is within the art itself, at whatever epoch, in whatever idiom, whatever genre or intention. Nor is evaluation eschewed - why, as well as how, it is so good and why sometimes so deplorable. The style throughout is inherently allusive and I have tried everywhere to preserve the intonations and rhythms of speech - spontaneous, improvised, natural as breathing'
- Robin Holloway

Scorsese on Filmmaking and Faith
'Have I succeeded, in my own life? I don't know. I don't think so. I'm in my eighties now and I just don't know. But then, maybe "success" is the wrong way of framing it. You just try, and when you fail, you keep trying.'
Over the course of eight years, Martin Scorsese and Jesuit theologian Antonio Spadaro discussed filmmaking and faith.
From his Catholic upbringing amidst the brutality of 1950s New York to the heights of Hollywood, Scorsese sketches a unique self-portrait. And from Mean Streets to Killers of the Flower Moon - and especially the spiritual reckonings of The Last Temptation of Christ and Silence - he grants readers a new understanding of his films.
Reflecting on grace and violence, fear and hope, passion and belief, these rich and intimate conversations offer a remarkable insight into the director's life and work.

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.

From the musical secrets of prehistoric monuments to the future of compositions by artificial intelligence, The Madman’s Orchestra uncovers the most curious tales, madcap musicians, and unusual instruments lost in time.
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”?
Fascinating, funny, and at times barely believable, this abundantly illustrated volume is a unique compendium brimming with entertaining facts, stories, and playlists of obscure music that will thrill and delight every music lover.
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.
Perfect for:
Music lovers

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.
