Az akasztófa árnyékában - François Villon


Az akasztófa árnyékában hiánypótló kötet. Villon verseinek Magyarországon ugyanis számtalan kiadása van, önálló monográfia azonban mindeddig nem jelent meg a költőről. A mű a legújabb kutatási eredményekre: levéltárakból előkerült okiratokra, bírósági végzésekre, kegyelmi levelekre támaszkodva göngyölíti fel Villon élettörténetét és elemzi verseit. A legfrissebb szakirodalom alapján rekonstruál. A középkor történelmi, társadalmi környezetébe helyezve igyekszik teljes képet adni élet és mű lehetséges kapcsolódásairól. Kételyeket is megfogalmaz, hiszen annyi ebben a dokumentumhalmazban az ismeretlen elem, hogy Villon életének még a kronológiáját is nehéz megnyugtatóan összeállítani. A kutatók számára jól használható, az irodalomkedvelők érdeklődésére is számot tartó kismonográfia korabeli illusztrációkkal idézi meg az első "elátkozott költő" világát, életterét és költészetét.

Příběhy slavných vil renesančního Říma


Vyprávění o římských vilách z období renesance a raného baroka je pojato nejen jako zasvěcený průvodce architektonickými a výtvarnými skvosty 15. a 16. století, ale čtivou formou uvádí čtenáře do obecně kulturních a politických dějin, které předurčily moderní Evropu. Vzhledem k tomu, že zachycené vily si nechali stavět papežové či vysocí funkcionáři jejich dvorů, jde o pohled z perspektivy centra tehdejšího světa. Kniha zachybuje proměny společnosti, odhaluje, jak se renesanční životní styl vycházející ze znovuobjevené antiky, propojený s kultem přírody a rozvinutím lidské přirozenosti, postupně proměňoval směrem k barokní exaltovanosti a zbožnosti. Text je bohatě prokládán fotografickou dokumentací. Výkladem alegoricko-symbolického významu výzdoby vil poutavě zasvěcuje do renesančního myšlení.

Written by a group of highly respected art historians, the fifth edition of this classic book now features full-colour artworks throughout, new chapter introductions, examinations of key ideas, and other helpful pedagogical support. Emphasizing the vitality of 19th-century art, the authors demonstrate how paintings, sculptures, prints and drawings by David, Gericault, Turner, Homer, Cassatt, Rodin, Van Gogh and many others remain relevant today. Using evocative and lucid prose, the authors reveal how concerns about class and gender, race and ethnicity, modernity and tradition, and popular and elite culture - ideas that arose in the course of the 19th century - motivated artists and propelled the movements under review.

Jozef Krakovský


JOZEF KRAKOVSKÝ - monografia akademického maliara s nezvyčajnou mierou talentu nielen v rokoch zrelosti, ale i v čase organizovaného zabúdania. Jozef Krakovský nikdy nebol verný jednej téme, námetu. Jeho prístup k výtvarnej tvorbe je vždy charakteristický pre jeho určitú epochu, ktorá trvá niekedy aj veľmi krátky čas. Potom maliarove odrazy sveta v dielach prechádzajú turbolentne rôznymi výtvarnými štýlmi, ktoré paradoxne prinášajú akúsi rovnováhu. Veľmi silný „prízvuk“ obrazov tvorí farba, ktorá odzrkadľuje maliarov vnútorný svet, podobne ako u jeho veľkých vzorov Vincenta Willema van Gogha a Jacksona Pollocka. Jozef Krakovský neustále hľadal, tvoril. Niekedy zašiel do slepej uličky, ale vždy našiel silu a vrátil sa späť. Jeho diela zachytávajú všehochuť výtvarného umenia 19. až 21. storočia nielen u nás doma, ale podnety nachádzal i vo francúzskych a holandských výtvarných prúdoch.

We Build Drawings


`Architects do not actually build buildings,' says Mikkel Frost, co-founder of Danish architecture firm CEBRA. `What we build is an idea. To visualize it, we build drawings.' The evolutionary process of how aphorisms develop into precise architectural concepts is illustrated through a collection of Frost's sketches and watercolours. Over 200 drawings are organized into 20 sections, each relating to one of CEBRA's projects. An index containing c olour photographs and renders of their works further illuminates how the drawings are translated into reality. Introducing the book, a written version of Frost's TEDx talk Let your fingers do the talking elaborates on the book's impetus: to bring a spotlight to the craft of drawing as a powerful tool for creation and communication.

Alternatívna Slovenská grafika


Prvé vydanie umenovednej publikácie historičky umenia PhDr. Aleny Vrbanovej, PhD. o vývine alternatívnych foriem a umeleckých stratégií (modelov) v tvorbe umeleckej grafiky od polovice 20. storočia s presahmi do 21. storočia. Predstavuje nový pohľad na vývin a prínos slovenskej umeleckej grafiky z pozície netradičných, experimentálnych a autorských počinov 49 slovenských umelkýň a umelcov. Autorka sa problematike venuje dlhodobo. V roku 1997 autorsky pripravila prvú celoslovenskú výstavu a rovnomenný katalóg. Do unikátnej zbierky súčasnej grafiky Stredoslovenskej galérie v Banskej Bystrici získala početnú kolekciu tejto neklasickej grafiky. V roku 2011 realizovala výstavu Alternatívna slovenská grafika na pôde Galérie Cypriána Majerníka v Bratislave, pričom výskum rozšírila o historické kontexty média. Monografia sa zoberá históriou, typológiou, analýzou a interpretáciou alternatívnych foriem umeleckej grafiky v slovenskom umení. Dáva ho do súvisu s nástupom informelu (štrukturálna grafika, aktívna grafika, monotypia a presahy grafiky a iných médií), cez umelecky mimoriadne podnetné obdobie 60. rokov, ktoré vníma ako kľúčové pre vznik nielen experimentálnych, ale najmä konceptuálnych základov grafiky a snahu o maximálne rozšírenie hraníc média. Obdobie normalizácie publikácia zachytáva tvorbou avantgardných a konceptuálne orientovaných tvorcov a osobitnú pozornosť venuje vzniku, etablovaniu sa a rozšíreniu počítačovej grafiky (od roku 1973). Popri týchto dnes už historických obdobiach sa autorka venuje vývinu neklasických a autorských polôh grafického média po roku 1990, ktoré reprezentujú prienik zamlčanej tradície a nových technológií (najmä digitálneho spracovania matrice, simulácie tradičných techník pomocou softvérov, ako aj presahy grafiky a iných médií). Umelecko-historický kontext a vývinové súvislosti alternatívnej grafiky dopĺňa ich analýza a interpretácia z pohľadu ich estetickej zámernosti a výrazovej osobitosti formy a jazyka Publikácia prináša bohatú obrazovú časť - 230 reprodukcií diel od 49 autoriek a autorov, ako aj odkazy na pramenné zdroje.

The Whole World a Bauhaus


This publication, accompanying the worldwide exhibition series, takes the quotation of the former Bauhaus student and subsequent university teacher Fritz Kuhr as a starting point for reflections on the Bauhaus; not only as a school in Weimar, Dessau and Berlin, but also in order to focus on the parallel Modernist movements in non-European regions. This volume explains in hitherto unknown depth the Bauhaus and its multi-faceted forms of expression, which extended far beyond the Constructivist language of the 1920s. Case studies from Buenos Aires, Mexico City, Santiago de Chile, Moscow, the USA and elsewhere show that the Bauhaus was not an exclusive undertaking of the modern age. Avant-gardes in many regions of the world examined the Bauhaus from their own point of view and integrated it into their discourses. In this way the Bauhaus became a global motor for new developments in society, culture and politics.

Peter Lindbergh. Untold Stories


The first-ever exhibition curated by Peter Lindbergh himself, shortly before his untimely death, Untold Stories at the Dusseldorf Kunstpalast served as a blank canvas for the photographer's unrestrained vision and creativity. Given total artistic freedom, Lindbergh curated an uncomprimising collection that sheds an unexpected light on his colossal oeuvre. This book, the official companion to the landmark exhibition, offers an extensive, firsthand look at the highly personal collection. Renowned the world over, Lindbergh's images have left an indelible mark on contemporary culture and photo history. Here, the photographer experiments with his own oeuvre and narrates new stories while staying true to his lexicon. In both emblematic and never-before-seen images, he challenges his own icons and presents intimate moments shared with personalities who had been close to him for years, including Nicole Kidman, Uma Thurman, Robin Wright, Jessica Chastain, Jeanne Moreau, Naomi Campbell, Charlotte Rampling and many more. This XL volume presents more than 150 photographs--many of them unpublished or short-lived, often having been commissioned by monthly fashion magazines such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Interview, Rolling Stone, W Magazine, or The Wall Street Journal. An extensive conversation between Lindbergh and Kunstpalast director Felix Kramer, as well as an homage by close friend Wim Wenders, offer fresh insights into the making of the collection. The result is an intimate personal statement by Lindbergh about his work.

The Araki Effect


Araki's career in full, from the portraits of the early 1960s to city scenes and tender tributes to his wife Araki is known the world over for his controversial erotic portraits of Japanese women, often bound using the kinbaku (Japanese bondage) technique. A unique figure in contemporary photography, he has always found creative inspiration in his daily existence, without making any distinction between his personal life and public and professional practice. The Araki Effect offers a broad overview of his career: from the first series from 1963-65, Satchin and His Brother Mabo, to Subway of Love, a large collection of images taken in the Tokyo subway between 1963 and 1972, the year he also made Autumn in Tokyo, which recounts the autumn he spent wandering through the city in the twilight hours. These are followed by Sentimental Night in Kyoto, less known than the famous Sentimental Journey, both tributes to his wife, Yoko; Balcony of Love, Death Reality, Tokyo Diary from 2017, and one of his latest collections, Araki's Paradise from 2019. Born in Tokyo in 1940, Nobuyoshi Araki worked at an advertising agency in the 1960s, where he met his future wife, Yoko Araki, the subject of his now classic volume Sentimental Journey. Araki's oeuvre spans erotic portraits of women, still lifes, images of plants, scenes of everyday life and architectural photography. He has published around 400 books, shown in many international exhibitions and his work is part of important collections worldwide. Araki lives and works in Tokyo.

Tiki Pop


Urban islands and bamboo hideaways set the stage for a pop culture phenomenon like no other. In mid-century America, the imaginative appeal of Tiki penetrated fashion, music, eating, drinking, and architecture. In handy Bibliotheca Universalis format, Tiki Pop traces the development of Tiki as romantic vision and cultural appropriation. Follow Tiki from James Cook's first Pacific Island expeditions, through Gauguin's exotic paintings, Hollywood jungle fantasies, and elaborate temples erected to celebrate Tiki as the god of recreation. With hundreds of images, Tiki the pop icon unfolds from its earliest, enthusiastic beginnings to its spectacular downfall in the dawning awareness of the Western world's colonial misdeeds. This book is the culmination of the extensive research of Sven Kirsten, urban archaeologist, Tiki sage, and author of earlier TASCHEN investigations, The Book of Tiki and Tiki Modern, which first recovered the figure of Tiki from obscurity. In his widely lauded graphic style, Kirsten places venerable ancient godheads next to their Polynesian pop counterparts, movie posters next to matchboxes, comic strips next to Robinson Crusoe illustrations. The result is at once a visual feast, a piece of cultural history, and a tribute to a very particular vision of paradise.

The Da Vinci Women


Leonardo da Vinci was a revolutionary thinker, artist and inventor who has been written about and celebrated for centuries. Lesser known, however, is his revolutionary and empowering portrayal of the modern female, centuries before the first women's liberation movements. Before da Vinci, portraits of women in Italy were still, impersonal and mostly shown in profile. Leonardo pushed the boundaries of female depiction having several of his female subjects, including his Mona Lisa, gaze at the viewer, giving them an authority which was withheld from women at the time. Art historian and journalist Kia Vahland recounts Leonardo's entire life from April 15, 1452, as a child born out of wedlock in Vinci up through his death on May 2, 1519, in the French castle of von Cloux. Included throughout are 80 sketches and paintings showcasing Leonardo's approach to the female form (including anatomical sketches of birth) and other artwork as well as examples from other artists from the 15th and 16th centuries. Vahland explains how artists like Raphael, Giorgione, Giovanni Bellini and the young Titian were influenced by da Vinci's women while Michelangelo, da Vinci's main rival, created masculine images of woman that counters Leonardo's depictions.
