Liptov ľudové umenie Folk Art
To čo sa v súčasnosti nazýva ľudovým umením, bolo v minulosti súčasťou každodenného života človeka. Ľudový výrobca pracoval s praktickým cieľom a jeho výrobky charakterizoval dokonalý súlad materiálu a techniky, funkcie a výzdoby. Každá vec ktorú zhotovil, musela byť taká, aby slúžila a aj ukázala, spájala sa v nej krása materiálu, výzdoby a účelnosti. Ľudia v Liptove spracovávali prírodné materiály a zhotovovali predmety, ktoré im slúžili v každodennom živote. Najpoužívanejšie boli predmety z dreva potrebné v domácnosti a gazdovstve, ale aj nábytok. Z prútia, korienkov a slamy sa plietli koše a košíky, hrnčiari robili a vypaľovali hlinené krčahy, misy, hrnce, pekáče a aj kachlice. Ovčiari si vyrezávali salašnícky riad, formy na oštiepky a črpáky na žinčicu. Ich oblečenie charakterizovala tzv. valaská paráda – bohato zdobené opasky, kapsy, klobúky, pracky a spony. Z ovčej vlny ľudia robili súkno, ktoré im slúžilo na odievanie, šili si z neho zimnú obuv a tiež používali ako prikrývky. Z koží oviec zruční remeselníci šili veľké mužské a ženské kožuchy, ale aj zdobené vesty bez rukávov. Ženy spracovávali ľanové a konopné vlákna, tkali z nich plátno, ktoré ozdobovali vytkávanými alebo vyšívanými vzormi. Modrotlačiari farbili biele plátno a potláčali ho krásnymi farebnými vzormi. Je potešiteľné, že takmer všetky výrobné a remeselné techniky a postupy sa v regióne uchovali až do súčasnosti ako živá tradícia.
Úvodné texty ku každej kapitole sú v anglickom jazyku.
Koloman Sokol
Koncom šesťdesiatych rokov sa v tvorbe Kolomana Sokola, významnej osobnosti slovenského výtvarného umenia, ktorá svojím umeleckým a humanistickým posolstvom výrazne prekročila hranice Slovenska, začína posledná tvorivá etapa. Zmena jeho myslenia aj výtvarného rukopisu je zásadná. Už netúži po formálnej dokonalosti, akoby ho už tvaroslovie, kompozícia či priestor prestali zaujímať. Dôležitejšia je atmosféra, zobrazovanie dôležitých momentov a duševného stavu. Kolekcia osemnástich diel zo zbierky Galérie Nedbalka, ktoré vznikali od roku 1968 do roku 1993, je kvalitatívne vyrovnaná a je výberom toho najlepšieho, čo umelec v tomto období vytvoril.

Alfons Mucha
Alfons Mucha (1860-1939) sa preslávil ako majster secesie - svojimi zvodnými kompozíciami kvetín, ornamentov a žien v pastelových farbách charakterizoval vzhľad a štýl prelomu 19. a 20. storočia, takzvanej Belle Époque. Široká paleta jeho prác obsahuje plagáty, ilustrácie, pohľadnice, propagačné materiály, ale aj návrhy kostýmov, divadelných rekvizít a interiérov. K jeho najznámejších dielam patria divadelné plagáty pre slávnu herečku Sarah Bernhardtovú a monumentálny cyklus Slovanská epopeja. Pri podrobnom skúmaní jeho života a diela sa však ukazujú aj ďalšie stránky umelcovej zložitej osobnosti, predovšetkým ako spoločensky zameraného mysliteľa. Mucha bola vlastenec, stúpenec panslavizmu, slobodomurársky reformátor a pacifista. Skôr ako experimentovať s novými smermi a štýlmi mu bolo umenie nástrojom, ako širšiemu publiku komunikovať svoje politické a filozofické názory. Cieľom tejto publikácie je prejsť cestou Muchovho života a pochopiť, ako jeho životný štýl a názory ovplyvnili jeho dielo.
Haredim
Fotografka Eliška Blažková osm let dokumentovala život ultraortodoxní židovské komunity v jeruzalémské čtvrti Mea Šearim. Muži v kaftanech a s dlouhými vousy jsou oblíbeným motivem, který si zde fotografují turisté. Autorka knihy však směřovala mnohem dál. Chtěla nahlédnout do každodenního života uzavřené společnosti, která má svá vlastní pravidla a zákonitosti, pro vnější svět jen těžko pochopitelné. Publikace je tedy důležitým svědectvím nejen o židovství, ale také o práci fotografky, která šla za hranici možného.

100 Ideas that Changed Graphic Design
This accessible book demonstrates how ideas influenced and defined graphic design. Lavishly illustrated, it is both a great source of inspiration and a provocative record of some of the best examples of graphic design from the last hundred years. The entries, arranged broadly in chronological order, range from technical (overprinting, rub-on designs, split fountain); to stylistic (swashes on caps, loud typography, and white space); to objects (dust jackets, design handbooks); and methods (paper cut-outs, pixelation).
100 Ideas that Changed Design
This inspiring book chronicles the most influential ideas that have shaped industrial and product design. Written by two experts on modern design, it provides both a concise history of the subject, and offers a fascinating resource to dip into for the general reader. From the origins or modern design in the craft movements of the 19th and early 20th century and the changes brought about by mass production, the book traces the most important ideas in design through the modern movement and post-war consumer society to more recent ideas such as Open-Source Design and Biomimicry.
Arranged in a broadly chronological order, the ideas are presented through fascinating text and arresting visuals, 100 Ideas that Changed Design explores when each idea first evolved and the subsequent impact it has had up to the present day.
Pattern Making
Pattern making, patternmaking, pattern cutting or flat patterning, are all words that describe the process of creating a two-dimensional diagram or template of a garment, drafted on a flat surface from either body measurements or transferred from a draped muslin. The starting point of a pattern is a sloper. Slopers are basic patterns that are drafted containing a certain amount of wearing ease for the wearer's comfort and are created without seam allowances.
Slopers are used as the foundation or template for creating design variations that are subsequently cut and sewn in fabric. In this book you will start by learning how to create a sloper for a basic sleeve before moving on to collars, bodices, skirts, and trousers. Each lesson in the book is illustrated in meticulous detail in a series of step-by-step photographs accompanied by charts, diagrams, and photos from the catwalk.

Draping
Draping is the art of manipulating fabric directly on the dress form. It is the most creative way for a designer to turn design ideas into reality. Start by learning the basics, including how to use a dress form and how to prepare the muslin for draping.
You will then move on to learn how to drape basic bodices, including a range of darts and necklines, and also basic skirts, and finally dresses. Each lesson in the book is illustrated in meticulous detail in a series of step-by-step photographs accompanied by photos from the catwalk.
The Sopranos Sessions
On January 10, 1999, a mobster walked into a psychiatrist's office and changed TV history. By shattering preconceptions about the kinds of stories the medium should tell, The Sopranoslaunched our current age of prestige television, paving the way for such giants as Mad Men, The Wire, Breaking Bad, and Game of Thrones. As TV critics for Tony Soprano's hometown paper, New Jersey's The Star-Ledger, Alan Sepinwall and Matt Zoller Seitz were among the first to write about the series before it became a cultural phenomenon.
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the show's debut, Sepinwall and Seitz have reunited to produce The Sopranos Sessions, a collection of recaps, conversations, and critical essays covering every episode. Featuring a series of new long-form interviews with series creator David Chase, as well as selections from the authors' archival writing on the series, The Sopranos Sessions explores the show's artistry, themes, and legacy, examining its portrayal of Italian Americans, its graphic depictions of violence, and its deep connections to other cinematic and television classics.
Cradle to Cradle: (Patterns of Life)
PATTERNS OF LIFE: SPECIAL EDITIONS OF GROUNDBREAKING SCIENCE BOOKS

In designing and producing products we need to stop worrying about being `less bad' and start finding ways of actually being good. Find here a radical manifesto and a plan for our planet in which all waste can be put to good use.
The World Atlas of Tattoo
Lively and informative, The World Atlas of Tattoo is a superbly illustrated and compelling reference book that, through examining the meeting point between tattoo artists and their personal understanding of their environment, presents a well-informed and nuanced account of what has become a widespread art practice. Organized geographically, each section is introduced by a short historical overview of the types of tattooing traditionally practised in that area of the world, enabling the reader to trace historical threads in the careers of some of the profiled tattooers, as well as marvel at how other artists have managed to create novel forms of tattooing that transcend any previous context.

Written by an international team of scholars, historians and journalists, this comprehensive atlas will enlighten and excite anyone who is passionate about tattoo art in its many forms worldwide.
Piano
Renzo Piano rose to international prominence with his co-design of the Pompidou Center in Paris, described by The New York Times as a building that "turned the architecture world upside down." Since then, he has continued to craft such iconic cultural spaces as the Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago and, most recently, the Whitney Museum of American Art, an asymmetric nine-story structure in Manhattan's Meatpacking District with both indoor and outdoor galleries. In London, the Piano touch has also transformed the skyline with the Shard, the tallest building in the European Union.
At the age of 80, the Italian maestro retains all of his enthusiasm and kindness-and his recent roster is more impressive than ever. As he confided to the author, "I think at a certain age, one can discover that there is what the French call the `fil rouge,' a kind of red thread that relates one building to another over time. In my case, I believe it is about lightness and the art of building." From freshly built museums in Athens and Santander; ongoing works in Los Angeles, Moscow, Beirut, and Istanbul; to such humanitarian projects as the Emergency Children's Surgery Center in Entebbe, Uganda, and the Children's Hospice in Bologna, Italy, Piano's career is a thrilling journey through the beauty and very essence of architecture.
This XXL-sized monograph, jam-packed with more than 200 new pages illustrated by photographs, sketches, and plans, spans Piano's entire career to date and the many existences of his singular aesthetic.Also available as an Art Edition accompanied by a print of a sketch by Renzo Piano, signed by the artist and limited to 200 copies.

Trauma, tíseň, extáze, prázdnota
Bohatě ilustrovaná publikace věnovaná proměnám „formulí patosu“, tj. emocionální řeči lidského těla, jak ji zachycuje výtvarné umění a vizuální kultura v posledních zhruba sto dvaceti letech. Autor originálně rozpracovává psychologickou teorii umění a model umělecké historie významného německého historika umění a kultury Abyho Warburga (1866?1929) a rozšiřuje ji do současnosti. Warburgův pojem „formule patosu“ (Pathosformeln) se v jeho práci stává průsečíkem, v němž ožívají a vzájemně se protínají velká témata humanitních a sociálních disciplín, ale také věd zabývajících se lidskou myslí: otázky mechanismů, skrze něž obrazy působí na své diváky, vzájemného ovlivňování biologických a kulturních aspektů tělesného výrazu a prožívání emocí, vztahu mentálních a materiálních reprezentací či racionality a afektu. Odkazují ale i k eticko-politickým dimenzím těchto otázek, které jsou dnes stejně palčivé jako za Warburgova života a souvisí kupříkladu s potřebou porozumět tomu, jak je lidské vědomí manipulováno obrazy.
Kniha navazuje na stejnojmennou výstavu pořádanou Západočeskou galerií v Plzni počátkem roku 2018.
