Monet: The Late Years


A detailed overview of the innovation and ambition that drove one of the best-known Impressionist painters at the end of his career In the later years of his life, Claude Monet (1840-1926) stayed close to home, turning to his extraordinary garden at Giverny for inspiration. The garden became a laboratory for the artist's concentrated study of natural phenomena-and for a revolutionary shift in the appearance and execution of his paintings. This beautiful publication examines the last phase of Monet's career, beginning in 1913, bringing together approximately 60 of his greatest works from this period. More specifically, Monet: The Late Years focuses on the series that Monet invented and reinvented at Giverny, reevaluating many large-scale works that have long been considered preparatory studies, reexamining their relationship to and status as finished works. Essays by a roster of distinguished scholars address topics such as Monet's plans for displaying his late paintings, the mechanics of his painting technique, and the critical and market reception of these works. Through this visually stunning reassessment, Monet's late works, still astonishing a century later, recast the titan of Impressionism as a radical modern painter.

A Cool Breeze


Hlavním tématem katalogu výstavy Galerie Rudolfinum je nové pojetí klasického sochařského námětu figury. Možnosti prostorového zobrazování lidské postavy jsou přibližovány v neobvyklých postupech a často netradičními materiály. Sedmnáct umělců si klade otázky, zda lze ještě dnes používat lidské tělo jako prostředek vyjádření a zda lze jeho pomocí formulovat i nadále závažná sdělení. Jak se jeví předchozí historie sochařství dnešním tvůrcům i divákům? Je na co navazovat? Výzva, kterou přináší tradice figurálního zpracování, vede nyní k nejprogresivnějším příkladům současného sochařství. Výsledkem je konfrontace klasických estetických hodnot se současným způsobem reprezentace identity a sociálních pozic uměleckého světa, kulturních hodnot a symbolik. Katalog obsahuje texty Petra Nedomy, kurátora výstavy, a krátká vyjádření samotných umělců. To vše je doplněno rozsáhlým souborem reprodukcí vystavených děl a také jedinečných snímků samotné instalace výstavy. Vystavující umělci: ELMGREEN & DRAGSET, RON MUECK, ATHAR JABER, YINKA SHONIBARE, STELLA HAMBERG, PALOMA VARGA WEISZ, STEPHAN BALKENHOL, ISA GENZKEN, MELIK OHANIAN, KRIŠTOF KINTERA, ROGER HIORNS, GEORG HEROLD, CHRISTIAN HOLSTAD, ANTONY GORMLEY, THOMAS HOUSEAGO, THOMAS SCHÜTTE

Decorating with Plants


Houseplants are more popular than ever before--especially with millennials, who are setting up their homes for the first time and discovering that nothing can add energy, style, and that essential "lived-in-ness" to their spaces better than a little bit of green. Whether it's a statement-making fiddle-leaf fig or a tiny tabletop succulent, a houseplant instantly elevates the look of your home. But where to begin? In Decorating with Plants, Baylor Chapman walks readers through everything they need to know to bring houseplants into their home. First, there's Plant Care 101: from how to assess light conditions to tricks for keeping your plants alive while on vacation, Chapman gives readers the simple, foundational info they need to ensure their plants will thrive. Then she introduces us to 28 of her favorites--specimens that are tough as nails but oh-so-stylish, from the eye-catching Rubber Tree to the delicate Cape Primrose. Finally, she guides readers through the home room by room: Place an aromatic plant like jasmine or gardenia to your entry to establish your home's "signature scent." Add a proper sense of scale to your living room with a ceiling-grazing palm. Create a living centerpiece of jewel-toned succulents for a dining table arrangement that will last long after your dinner party. From air purification to pest control, there's no limit to what houseplants can do for your home--and Decorating with Plants is here to show you how to add them to spaces big and small with style.

Exploring Hyperrealism


This original work introduces readers to the drawing and painting techniques in the hyperrealist movement, a style applied to painting whose techniques aspire to photographic exactitude in drawing. From the first action before viewing the piece--the search for information and reference images--to different drawing and sculpture techniques, the book offers a step-by-step explanation of the creative process and shows readers how to illustrate in black and white and with colored pencils, how to work with watercolors and oil, how to create a trompe l'oeil and how to create a realistic looking 3D model. Readers will find all the techniques and suggestions they need to make their own hyperrealist creations, all explained in a pleasant and fun way. It is an original and creative way to introduce different drawing techniques that will awaken the artist inside of us all and whose results will strike most readers as surprising given the degree of realism achieved, as if they were photographs. The book includes references to contemporary artists who have used each of the techniques described, curiosities in the world of art and other tricks of the trade.

Lacná kniha Body (-50%)


The body remains a battleground. Politicized, conceptualized and increasingly shared, our often-paradoxical relationship with the human form is nothing new, but finds itself heightened in the digitised, virtualised era of the `post-industrial' body. No longer a tool but a work-in-progress, our bodily expectations bound from fantasy to reality, beauty to tyranny, art to commerce and curiosity to obsession, leaving us dreaming of other bodies and alternate lives. Surveying a range of over 360 photographic re-presentations from the worlds of art, fashion, scientific and vernacular photography - including the work of Nobuyoshi Araki, Bettina Rheims, Lauren Greenfield, Viviane Sassen, Cindy Sherman, Wolfgang Tillmans, Daido Moriyama, Sally Mann, Pieter Hugo and Juergen Teller, Solve Sundsbo and Daniel Sannwald - Body: The Photography Book explores what our imaging of the human form, and the ways in which those images have been used and shared, might reflect of our relationship to the body. Supporting the broad range of photography is a foreword by a cultural critic, and an essay by the acclaimed psychologist Professor David Sander, PhD., discussing the neurological representation of our own bodies.

My Private Spa


The evolution from yesterday's purely functional and usually soulless bathroom to today's private oasis that comes in all shapes and sizes - sometimes almost like a piece of art - continues to open up new horizons for newly planned houses and apartments as well as remodeling projects: from introducing elements of ancient bathhouse cultures to the latest materials and products. With a careful choice of projects from all across the globe, this volume showcases an exceptional spectrum ranging from small and intimate baths to wide open spa landscapes - from size S to XL. They all have their own special way of extending an invitation to immerse, relax, and let go. The multitude of concepts presents the coming together of solid and fluid elements in architecture and interior design as an inspiration.

Hry


V roku 2007 vydal Divadelný ústav divadelnú hru Kebab v edícii Vreckovky a dnes prichádza s vydaním troch nových divadelných hier Gianiny Cărbunariu, ktorá sa medzičasom naplno etablovala doma i v zahraničí ako divadelná autorka a režisérka. Zborník obsahuje divadelné hry Michaela, tigrica z nášho mesta (Mihaela, tigrul din oraşul nostru), Solitarita (Solitaritate), Work in Progress. Divadelné hry z rumunského originálu preložila Jana Páleníková. Úvod napísala teatrologička Kinga Boros a z maďarského jazyka preložila Renata Deáková. Pre svoju hru Michaela, tigrica z nášho mesta, ktorá mala premiéru v roku 2012, ako aj pre všetky nasledujúce drámy používa Cărbunariu pomenovanie mockumentary play, čím sa pokúša upozorniť svojich čitateľov a divákov na hravý vzťah skutočnosti a diela. Ide teda o svojho druhu sebareflexívnu dokumentaristiku. Postavy jej hier sa napríklad v javiskových textoch často odvolávajú na výskumy, ktoré boli súčasťou ich tvorivej práce. Mockumentary alebo pseudo-dokumentárny film zobrazuje fiktívne udalosti prostredníctvom dokumentaristických metód. Divadlo Gianiny Cărbunariu práve naopak vychádza zo skutočnej referencie a prezentuje ju, akoby to bola fikcia, aby toto odcudzenie upozornilo diváka ak aj on chce na váhu udalostí tam vonku. Žiadať od tohto divadla vernosť skutočnosti je slepá ulička. Balansuje na hranici skutočnosti a fikcie, ako starosta z hry Solitarita na neviditeľnej hranici medzi hľadiskom a javiskom. Dokumentaristika Gianiny Cărbunariu spočíva v tom, že k jej inscenáciám sa viaže úžasne hlboký prieskum tém, ktoré ju zamestnávajú, nech už ide o historickú udalosť, alebo o niektorý z aspektov súčasnej spoločenskej skutočnosti. Dokumenty a rozhovory vyhrabané z hlbín archívov, v ktorých sa delia jednotliví adepti o svoje vlastné zážitky a názory, sú však pre jej tvorbu len východiskom. Ich fragmenty sa potom v novej štruktúre, koncentrovanejšie objavia v inscenácii. Je to, akoby nám zmenila ,len` uhol pohľadu, a preto sa znova musíme zamyslieť nad tým, čo sme si mysleli, že vieme.

Grécka dráma


Publikácia predstavuje prvýkrát v slovenskom jazyku súčasnú grécku drámu. Zastupujú ju tri divadelné hry, ktorých autormi sú grécki dramatici Dimitris Dimitriadis, Jannis Mavritsakis a Nina Rapi. Hry v tomto výbere sú tematicky rôznorodé, ale spája ich výrazné využívanie abstrakcie. Hra Dimitrisa Dimitriadisa Zacyklenie štvorca prostredníctvom variácií na štyri partnerské situácie skúma možnosť úniku z bludného kruhu. Vo Vitriol Jannisa Mavritsakisa sledujeme príbeh mladého muža, ktorý sa stráca v medziľudských vzťahoch a neschopnosti konať. Anjelský stav od Niny Rapi predstavuje šesť postáv vo zvláštnom stave očistca, kde sa vyrovnávajú s traumami vlastnej minulosti. Súčasťou publikácie je štúdia o gréckom divadle a dráme, ktorej autorkou je grécka teatrologička Sissy Papathanassiou. Do slovenského jazyka divadelné hry i štúdiu prekladala Renáta Mokošová.

Look Again


The art of the past can seem very far away, obscured both by time and by knotty academic theory. Foregrounding the experience of the contemporary viewer, Look Again shows how this need not be the case. Ossian Ward's simple, ten-step programme acts as an aid to looking, breaking down the often obscure strategies of the Old Masters into intuitive categories - from Art as Honesty to Art as Vision. Look Again's novel approach is influenced by John Berger's Ways of Seeing, but is here updated for the art world of the 21st century. Key to this book is an emphasis on ways of experiencing Old Masters - more than just looking. Just as contemporary art should be judged by how it moves us, cajoles us and envelops us, so too can the great paintings of the world be seen as immersive, captivating, even participatory experiences. Ward does not deny the specific complexities and barriers associated with looking at art from other eras. Instead he offers readers a new formula to help illuminate this kind of art. His method not only provides the viewer with the tools to interpret a work of art, but also assumes that we hold some of this knowledge within ourselves already. In other words, everyone can share the enriching experience of Old Master paintings.
