Walton Ford
At first glance, Walton Ford's large-scale, highly detailed watercolors of animals recall the prints of 19th-century illustrators John James Audubon and Edward Lear. A closer look reveals a complex and disturbingly anthropomorphic universe, full of symbols, sly jokes, and allusions to the 'operatic' quality of traditional natural history.
In this stunning but sinister visual universe, beasts and birds are not mere aesthetic objects but dynamic actors in allegorical struggles: a wild turkey crushes a small parrot in its claw; a troupe of monkeys wreaks havoc on a formal dinner table; an American buffalo is surrounded by bloodied white wolves. In dazzling watercolor, the images impress as much for their impeccable realism as they do for their complex narratives.
First available as a signed and limited volume, this updated edition of Pancha Tantra is the most comprehensive survey of Ford's oeuvre to date, with more than 20 new works. It features dazzling details, an in-depth exploration of his visual universe, a complete biography, and excerpts from his textual inspirations: from Indian folktales and the letters of Benjamin Franklin to the Autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini and Audubon's Ornithological Biography.
Extraordinary Records
This electrifying vinyl edition creates a new and edgy definition for "album art." Produced in collaboration with Colors magazine, it brings together more than 500 remarkable records from the collection of Alessandro Benedetti and Peter Bastine.
This book forms a junction between photography, music, and design, celebrating vinyl for the integrity of sound recording and its artistic potential as a material form. With featured artists including Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Prince, Michael Jackson, Bon Jovi, and beyond, it offers compelling insight into the most intricate details of a performer's visual identity, from a vivid color to a futuristic mirror effect.
The discs are arranged thematically to span monochrome vinyl; unusual vinyl (including silver, gold, or mirror vinyl as well as extremely rare glow-in-the-dark vinyl); multicolored vinyl; etched vinyl (where music is pressed onto only one side); shaped vinyl (cut into forms that are different from the classic round disc); and picture discs (where a photograph or design is stamped onto the surface of the record).
In addition, there is a rare view into the records known today as "ribs" or "bone music." Produced in the USSR, where western music and culture were forbidden, these were made by engraving discarded x-rays with special machines and creating bootleg disks of hit singles of artists such as David Bowie and Pink Floyd.
Page after page, this kaleidoscopic encyclopedia of innovative and ingenious vinyl is a colorful journey through era-defining records and artists.
Why We Photograph Animals
A compelling visual anthology of one of photography’s most popular subjects, reframing our understanding of why we photograph animals and why photographing them matters to us and the planet.
A visual overview of the history and future of animal photography, Why We Photograph Animals encourages us to think and rethink the way we have looked at?and used?animals and to consider our future relationships with nonhuman species.
Multistranded, this book features the work of more than one hundred photographers supported by thematic essays that provide historical context; interviews with and contributions by leading contemporary photographers that explore their influences, methods, and motivations; and dazzling visual collections that present the very best animal photography from its inception to the present day.
The result is a book that will engage those with an interest in wildlife photography and the natural world, but also those with a concern for the future of the planet. Huw Lewis-Jones’s expert authorship and curation celebrates extraordinary images by brilliant photographers, but also allows us to understand why people have photographed animals at different points in history and what it means in the present.
Why We Photograph Animals is deliberately not a conventional history of wildlife photography. It’s an exploration of the animal in photography. It speaks to our ongoing desire to look at animals; to understand, misunderstand, and appreciate them; to use and abuse them; to neglect or come to value and protect them.

Tak blízko, tak daleko. České umění 1947–1960
O českém výtvarném umění mezi léty 1947 – 1960 nebylo dosud nikdy uvažováno v širším evropském kontextu, který by se vyhnul stereotypu „železné opony“. Zároveň v pohledu na toto období se opakovaně předávají určitá klišé a stereotypy, která brání v pochopení skutečné povahy a pozice českého umění tohoto období v rámci poválečného světa. Cílem knihy je proto nabídnout nové zhodnocení českého umění této doby, které se vyhýbá stereotypu střední a východní Evropy, ale uvažuje o tomto umění jako o součásti komplikovaného poválečného vývoje celé Evropy. Poprvé se u nás syntetickou formou zaměřuje na celek české kultury v období vrcholného dogmatismu, na její oficiální a neoficiální struktury, včetně prvních let relativního politického uvolnění. Historičky umění Marie Klimešová a Hana Rousová patří k nestorkám oboru, kteří se daným obdobím zabývají většinu svého profesního života. Bez nadsázky není nikdo, kdo by tak komplikované období zpracoval do této hloubky a nutných souvislostí. Text konfrontovaný se čtyři sta padesáti reprodukcemi vede nepochybně i k uvědomění si stmelující nezdolnosti základních hodnot evropské kultury. Výše uvedené povyšuje knihu na jednu z nejdůležitějších i nejpotřebnějších knih, které za posledních několik desetiletí v Čechách vyšly.
Digitální Kříženecký
Rozsáhlá publikace kolektivu autorů NFA je první ucelenou vědeckou monografií věnovanou filmům (a jejich digitalizaci) českého režiséra a kameramana, průkopníka české kinematografie Jana Kříženeckého. Kniha nabízí pohled na dějiny raného českého filmu a materiální podobu prvotních kinematografických děl. Opírá se o dlouholetý archivní výzkum filmových materiálů v Národním filmovém archivu a dosavadní zkušenosti s jejich prezentací, i o široké rozpětí metodologických přístupů, zejména o teorii archivnictví a digitální restaurování, dějiny filmové techniky, materialistickou teorii filmu a médií, mediální archeologii, filmovou estetiku, či umělecký výzkum. Publikace sestává ze dvou rozsahově stejných částí, první tvoří původní studie, jež z různých pozic rozkrývají materialitu a cirkulaci Kříženeckého filmů; vznik teoretických pasáží se přitom odvíjel také od procesu digitalizace. Ve druhé části je prezentována obsáhlá detailně okomentovaná Edice dokumentů, jež život prvních českých filmů i jejich tvůrce kontextuálně a faktograficky ukotvuje (mapa míst, kde Jan Kříženecký natáčel; časová osa života a díla; dochované hmotné objekty J. Kříženeckého aj.). Monografie obsahuje bohatou obrazovou přílohu, filmografii, bibliografii a rejstříky.
Dune: Exposures
Explore the creation of Denis Villeneuve's Dune through this evocative fusion of star Josh Brolin's sublime writing and cinematographer Greig Fraser's candid set photography. During the shooting of Dune, director Denis Villeneuve asked Fraser if he would document the filming process using still photography. This unusual request led the cinematographer on an unexpected creative journey that yielded an electrifying gallery of photographs that were candid, spontaneous, abstract, and wholly evocative. Meanwhile, Brolin, a natural writer, was so moved by the experience of shooting Dune-in which he plays warmaster Gurney Halleck-that he captured his experiences in vivid, poignant prose. Close friends, Brolin and Fraser bonded further during production, solidifying a connection that led to this remarkable collaboration that seamlessly juxtaposes the actor's enthralling writing with the cinematographer's stunning images. A unique new way to experience life on the set of Villeneuve's Dune, this thrilling ode to the art of filmmaking from two of the most revered artists in the industry is an unmissable publishing event.

Pertu No 15: Bohdan Hostiňák – László Szotyory
Katalóg pätnásteho ročníku projektu PERTU, sa zameriava na hľadanie analógií v súčasnom slovenskom a maďarskom výtvarnom umení. Skúma náhodné paralely v tvorbe dvoch výrazných osobností, ktoré sú založené na názorovej, štýlovej, tematickej či generačnej príbuznosti. Vytvára jedinečný komunikatívny priestor pre dialóg dvoch kultúr a objavenie nových súvislostí. Projekt realizovaný v dvojročných intervaloch, je ojedinelý v stredoeurópskom priestore – patrí ku kľúčovým projektom galérie.
Jeho aktérmi boli Bohdan Hostiňák (1968) a László Szotyory (1957). V ich odlišne zameranej tvorbe sa objavujú analogické témy a postupy vyrastajúce z podobných spoločensko-historických skúseností a zaujatia maľbou. Hoci sa nikdy nestretli, spája ich meditatívny, jemne ironický pohľad, oddanosť závesnému obrazu, záľuba v tradičných maliarskych technikách, erbových motívoch a sugestívnej symbolike. Projekt bol koncipovaný ako komunikatívna hra s prvkami retrospektívy – kde jednotlivé témy vzájomne korešpondovali a dopĺňali sa. Previedol od 90-tych rokov po súčasnosť – zdôraznil styčné body a odlišnosti tvorby autorov. Obaja čerpajú z dejín umenia a veľkých tém, vytvárajúc nadčasové kompozície, presýtené vlastnou symbolikou. Maľujú z vnútornej nevyhnutnosti – nezávisle od aktuálnych trendov maľby. Ich diela predstavujú maľované rébusy, podobenstvá či vizuálne metafory. Obklopuje ich atmosféra tajomstva a melanchólie. Tajomstvo je súčasťou príbehu – zahŕňa odkaz na fragmentárnosť poznania. U oboch autorov dominantné miesto zaujíma meditatívna krajina – ako dejisko symbolických nadčasových udalostí. Ženské postavy odkazujú u nich buď na arkadický vek nevinnosti a sublimovanú zmyselnosť, alebo sú nositeľkami zložitých symbolických významov a personifikáciami mýtu krásy. Zvieratá, červy, larvy – predstavujú prechodné formy bytia – alebo vyjadrujú elementárnu silu inštinktov. Tvoria kontrasty k civilizačným výdobytkom. Veľkou témou, ktorá sa tiahne ich tvorbou je téma harmónie a kontrastu – konfrontácia a komplementárnosť protikladov, ktorá dodáva dielam existenciálny rozmer, napätie a dynamiku. Diela oboch umelcov sú nesmierne kompaktibilné – ich dialóg obohatil slovensko-maďarský výtvarný kontext o nové poznatky.
Francúzska a nizozemská grafika do roku 1900 z daru Ernesta Zmetáka a Danice Zmetákovej
Katalóg k výstave sérii starej grafiky zo zbierok Ernesta Zmetáka a Danice Zmetákovej. Je zameraný na vzťahy dvoch kultúrnych oblastí – francúzskej a nizozemskej – ako sa inšpirovali a zároveň si zachovali vlastnú identitu. Výber diel poskytol prehľad od biblických príbehov, videných očami protestantov v 17. storočí, k ničím nerušenej hravosti a roztopašnosti francúzskeho rokoka 18. storočia až do začiatkov revolučných premien v 19. storočí. Francúzi vtedy naplno využili novoobjavené grafické techniky a tlačiarenské postupy, vytvorili z nich účinný nástroj politickej satiry alebo propagandy hospodárskych či technologických úspechov. Na druhej strane holandskí grafici 19. storočia sa snažili o dokonalé ovládnutie nových grafických techník a obnoviť slávu flámskych majstrov 16. a 17. storočia.
Najstaršia francúzska grafika v kolekcii je dielom Leonarda Gautiera a reprodukuje Michelangelov Posledný súd zo Sixtínskej kaplnky. V súbore prevládali práce rytcov a litografov 18. a 19. storočia. Napríklad: významného portrétistu Françoisa Chéreaua (1680 – 1729), jedného z najznámejších medirytcov francúzskeho rokoka Jacquesa-Philippea Le Basa (1707 – 1783), Claudea Augustinea Duflosa (1700 – 1786), syna známeho medirytca Claude Augustin Duflos (1665 – 1727), maliara a medirytca Philliberta Louisa Debucourta (1756 – 1832), Louisa Jacquesa Beaublého (činného 1801 – 1819) alebo medirytca Charlesa Alberta Waltnera (1846 – 1925). Raritou je portrét kniežaťa Christiana von Hardenburg (1808), vyhotovený technikou „physionotrace“, ktorú si nechal patentovať Edme Quénedey (1756 – 1830). Väčšia kolekcia portrétov vyhotovených touto technikou, sa nachádza v Britskom múzeu v Londýne. Galéria umenia Ernesta Zmetáka v Nových Zámkoch, je na Slovensku jedinou zbierkotvornou inštitúciou, ktorá uchováva takýto exemplár.
Z diel nizozemskej proveniencie boli zastúpené práce Jana Ditmaera (1538/1558 – 1603), Adriaena Collaerta (1560 – 1618), Willema van Swanenburgha (1580 – 1612), Adriaena van Ostade (1610 – 1685), Pietra van Lissebettena (1630 – 1678), Jacoba Peetersa (1637 – 1695), Valentina Lefebvreho (1642 – 1682), ale aj mladších autorov, napríklad Jana Punta (1711 – 1779).
Náklon v typografii a jeho autorské zpracování
Význam knihy spočívá v mnohosti srovnávaných písem a přístupů, čímž usiluje o kvalitní uvedení do zpracovávané tematiky. Konstrukce nakloněného písma závisí čistě na na autorovi abecedy a tato publikace zaznamenává, porovnává a poměřuje některá z možných řešení.

Flirting with Danger
A picture should tell a story. It should open doors to a mysterious journey of thought by letting its viewers forget the world around them for a brief moment. David Drebin is known for infusing his photographic masterpieces with compelling narratives. Although each of his works is marked by creative uniqueness, his signature style puts a distinct stamp under each image - a romantic melancholy with a hint of eroticism that elegantly invites you into an exciting fantasy. In his new illustrated book Flirting With Danger, the renowned star photographer now presents particularly sensational moments of this theme. David Drebin creates a dream world in a cinematographic way, which, thanks to his hyper-realistic style, seems so lifelike that the viewer feels part of the scenery. Perhaps it is this twist that makes his artworks so suspenseful, or perhaps it is the way he skilfully stages his protagonists. Each of his pictures leaves the impression of its own dramaturgy, which only stimulates the mental cinema. What will happen next? What happened before? The artist's new coffee-table book is now dedicated to the fascinating attraction of the forbidden and the dangerous. Intense snapshots show approaches to the exciting sides of life. The result is a book in a class of its own. In an extra-large format, the artist's pictures can achieve maximum effect and thus skilfully bring the emotions of the viewers to their peak.
Velazquez
A comprehensive, illustrated portrait of Diego Velázquez’s life and art examining all his major works.
Diego Velázquez (1599–1660) was one of the towering figures of Western painting and Baroque art, a technical master renowned for his focus on realism and startling veracity. Everything he painted was treated as a portrait, from Spanish royalty and Pope Innocent X to a mortar and pestle. In this comprehensive introduction to Velázquez’s life and art by Richard Verdi, the artist’s major works are discussed along with most of his surviving output of approximately 110 paintings. Velázquez’s greatest innovation, his unorthodox and revolutionary technique, is explored in relation to his most-celebrated contemporaries both in Spain and beyond, including Titian and Peter Paul Rubens. Velázquez concludes with a final chapter on the influence and importance of Velázquez’s art on later painters from the time of his death to the art of recent times, including Francisco Goya, Pablo Picasso, Francis Bacon, and the Impressionists. 150 illustrations

Vermeer - The Rijksmuseum's forthcoming major exhibition catalogue
Published to accompany the once-in-a-lifetime exhibition at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, this is the first major study of Vermeer’s life and work in many years.
Johannes Vermeer’s intensely quiet and enigmatic paintings invite the viewer into a private world, often prompting more questions than answers. Who is being portrayed? Are his subjects real or imagined? What is shown on the map on the wall? What news does a letter bring?
Seemingly unaware of the viewer, each subject?the milkmaid,the guitar player, the girl with a pearl earring?occupies an intimateand private space. Vermeer’s paintings, with their enigmatic interiors and masterful handling of natural light, bring us into a closed, internal world, but with many tantalizing points of contact with the outside world. What details do we know of Vermeer’s personal life? How did it affect his painting style?
This is the first major study of Vermeer’s life and work for many years, bringing together diverse strands of his professional and private life in Delft in the seventeenth century and examining important research that has revealed new ways of looking at his paintings.
Accompanying a major exhibition at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, this volume sheds light on every one of Vermeer’s known paintings, thirty-five in all, with a wide selection of contextual illustrations, commentaries, and up-to-date research by the most distinguished international Vermeer scholars. Vermeer will be required reading for lovers of the most admired of all Dutch seventeenth-century painters and one of the world’sgreatest artists.
