Villanycigány - minden, vagy legalább amire emlékszem


"Senki, de tényleg senki nem venné kezébe ezt a könyvet, ha nem lennék véletlenül tagja annak a bizonyos zenekarnak" - állítja Christian Lorenz, azaz Flake, a Rammstein billentyűse első könyvéről, ami egyszerre az NDK mindennapjairól és zenei undergroundjáról szóló kordokumentum, fiatalkori visszaemlékezés és zenekarok története. A mű Németországban közel öt hónapig szerepelt a Der Spiegel bestsellerlistáján, első kiadása két hét alatt elfogyott. A könyv eredeti címe, a Der Tastenficker (szó szerinti fordításban billentyűbasztató) a néhai NDK-ban egy szál szintetizátorral "vendéglátózó" zenészek gúnyneve volt. Ennek körülbelüli magyar megfelelője a villanycigány, ami egyszerre jelölheti a hangszert és a rajta játszó embert. (Köszönjük a címötletet Nagy Andornak, a Shockmagazin.hu munkatársának!)

Electric Eden


Rob Young investigates how the idea of folk has been handed down and transformed by successive generations - song collectors, composers, Marxist revivalists, folk-rockers, psychedelic voyagers, free festival-goers, experimental pop stars and electronic innovators. In a sweeping panorama of Albion's soundscape that takes in the pioneer spirit of Cecil Sharp; the pastoral classicism of Ralph Vaughan Williams and Peter Warlock; the industrial folk revival of Ewan MacColl and A. L. Lloyd; the folk-rock of Fairport Convention, Sandy Denny, Nick Drake, Shirley Collins, John Martyn and Pentangle; the bucolic psychedelia of The Incredible String Band, The Beatles and Pink Floyd; the acid folk of Comus, Forest, Mr Fox and Trees; The Wicker Man and occult folklore; the early Glastonbury and Stonehenge festivals; and the visionary pop of Kate Bush, Julian Cope and Talk Talk, Electric Eden maps out a native British musical voice that reflects the complex relationships between town and country, progress and nostalgia, radicalism and conservatism. An attempt to isolate the 'Britishness' of British music - a wild combination of pagan echoes, spiritual quest, imaginative time-travel, pastoral innocence and electrified creativity - Electric Eden will be treasured by anyone interested in the tangled story of Britain's folk music and Arcadian dreams.

To Don`t List Project Planning for Creative People


How do you decide what you will do today - and what you won't do? There simply isn't time to realise every brilliant idea and to execute every little task. And as we cannot create extra time, we need to make choices. The To Don't List is a notebook and planner that helps you make those choices, whether they concern your daily tasks, your new projects or even your professional or creative life. It gives you the gift of simplicity: Just make a list for your life/work/project/year/month/day and throw out everything after the 3rd item. It will give you time and focus. The author used the To Don't List concept a lot in his studio while brainstorming, developing new ideas or working on projects: "That's a good idea, but let's put it on the To Don't List for now." In that way, he kept his focus on his goals. The To Don't List concept became a method, and the method became the inspiration for writing Don't Read This Book. Like the Don't/Do This - Game, the To Don't List is an addition to the ToDon't--Family.

Idols - The Power of Images


With Idols, Annie Caubet, archaeologist and Curator Emeritus of the Louvre, takes readers on an aesthetic journey across time and space. Caubet surveys the beginnings of human figurative imagery from 4000-2000 BCE, as the Neolithic Era's ambiguous three-dimensional figures developed and spread across the world, from the Iberian peninsula to the Indus Valley, from the gates of the Atlantic to the confines of the Far East. Caubet's book traces an artistic revolution that would shape the rest of human history, as the idol (from the Greek eidolon, or image) evolved to represent and express power, myth and belief in the human form. Idols climbs mountains, treks through steppes and deserts and braves oceans and seas to reveal networks of connections, a commonality of perception and contacts between remote lands at the dawn of anthropomorphic figurative culture.

Martin Parr: Beach Therapy


During his long career as a photographer, Martin Parr has always photographed on beaches, particularly in the UK. He has often used the beach as a laboratory to experiment with new cameras and techniques. So far example, when he changed from black and white to medium format colour in the early 80s his first major project was about New Brighton, a run down seaside resort near Liverpool. In recent months he has started exploring the beach with the aid of a telephoto lens. This lens is rarely used in the world of art and documentary photography so it is a challenge to find new ways of using it. Often this involves incorporating the vegetation on the perimeter with the beach as a backdrop, both in and out of focus. So over his long career he has tried everything from a close up macro lens, a medium format wide angled camera and finally this latest offering with the telephoto.

From visionary filmmakers James Cameron (Avatar) and Robert Rodriguez (Sin City), comes Alita: Battle Angel, an epic adventure of hope and empowerment. When Alita (Rosa Salazar) awakens with no memory of who she is in a future world she does not recognize, she is taken in by Ido (Christoph Waltz), a compassionate doctor who realizes that somewhere in this abandoned cyborg shell is the heart and soul of a young woman with an extraordinary past. As Alita learns to navigate her new life and the treacherous streets of Iron City, Ido tries to shield her from her mysterious history while her street-smart new friend Hugo (Keean Johnson) offers instead to help trigger her memories. But it is only when the deadly and corrupt forces that run the city come after Alita that she discovers a clue to her past - she has unique fighting abilities that those in power will stop at nothing to control. If she can stay out of their grasp, she could be the key to saving her friends, her family and the world she's grown to love. Delve into the world of Alita in this lavish hardback packed with concept art, character and production designs, stills and behind-the-scenes photos, and interviews with director Robert Rodriguez, producers James Cameron and Jon Landau, and key creative talent.

Playing the Game


This history of adidas, one of the world's most innovative global companies, looks beyond the trademark three stripes to show how the company grew and evolved over time. Founded in a small town in Bavaria, Germany, the adidas brand has, for nearly a century, been outfitting international sports stars and pop culture icons such as David Beckham, Zin dine Zidane, and Run-DMC as well as everyday men, women, and children across the globe. The story of this evolution--illustrated with numerous historic photographs--is entwined with history, corporate trends, and the emergence of sports as a major factor in the world economy. Starting with the beginnings of the original Dassler brothers' company in the time of the Weimar Republic and National Socialism, this book reveals the first academically-based look at the history of the family and the adidas company which was officially founded in 1949 after the brothers' separation. Using a worldwide range of sources, the authors also examine brand strategies and globalization since the 1960s. Since its beginnings, the name 'adidas' has been shrouded in legend and, in this special look at the rise of a global company, readers will learn the true story behind the brand.

Graciela Iturbide's Mexico - Photographs


Iturbide is modern Mexico's subtlest, most profound chronicler Graciela Iturbide, best known for her iconic photographs of Mexican indigenous women, has engaged with her homeland as a subject for the past 50 years in images of great variety and depth. The intensely personal, lyrical photographs collected and interpreted in this book show that, for Iturbide, photography is a way of life--as well as a way of seeing and understanding Mexico, with all its beauties, rituals, challenges and contradictions. The Mexico portrayed here is a country in constant transition, defined by tensions and exchanges between new and old, urban and rural, traditional and modern. Iturbide's deep connection with her subjects--among them political protests, celebrations and rituals, desert landscapes, cities, places of burial and Mexico's artistic heritage--produces indelible images that encompass dreams, symbols, reality and daily life. Published to accompany the first major museum exhibition of Iturbide's work on the East Coast, this volume presents more than 100 beautifully reproduced black-and-white photographs, accompanied by illuminating essays inviting readers to share in Graciela Iturbide's personal artistic journey through the country she knows so intimately. One of the most influential photographers active in Latin America today, Mexican photographer Graciela Iturbide (born 1942) began studying photography in the 1970s with legendary photographer Manuel Álvarez Bravo. Seeking "to explore and articulate the ways in which a vocable such as 'Mexico' is meaningful only when understood as an intricate combination of histories and practices," as she puts it, Iturbide has created a nuanced and sensitive documentary record of contemporary Mexico.

Claude Monet


More than any other artist, Claude Monet represents Impressionist painting. This volume illustrates Monet's career from Realism via Impressionism to a form of painting in which the colo urs and light gradually become detached from the object. It focuses on the artist's colour concept, an aspect of his oeuvre which has hitherto not been examined in detail, as well as his passionate study of subjects from his garden in Giverny. The French "Master of Light" (1840 - 1926) was a key forerunner of twentieth - century painting. He painted by the sea, on the steep coast of Normandy and on the banks of the Seine. Monet's light and colours intera ct on the canvas with a nature that is constantly changing. In order to record the variety of atmospheric impressions, he painted many of his subjects in series. In his study of the world of plants and water in his garden the subject gradually becomes inde pendent of his observation of nature. In this way the artist's late work paved the way for the painting of Abstract

Smrtí ke svobodě


Uplynulo sto let od konce 1. světové války a založení Československé republiky, jejíž existence trvala pouhých dvacet let. Ve městech a především po venkovské krajině východních Čech je na ni rozptýlena řada památek z oblasti hmotné kultury, které stojí za ochranu a péči, zachování do budoucích let a turistické objevování.

Představuje reprezentativní vzorek pomníků, které byly zpracovány s výraznější uměleckou invencí a snaží se nejen o výklad jejich ikonografie z hlediska národní a armádní symboliky, ale také upozorňuje na literární reflexi válečných střetů v deníkové, memoárové a krásné literatuře se zaměřením na tzv. legionářskou literaturu, vytvářenou veterány a dalšími přímými účastníky bojů, především z ruské válečné fronty. Vedle památníků představuje publikace také významné architektonické památky, vzniklé v regionu v období mezi oběma světovými válkami a prezentující vysokou úroveň stavební kultury veřejných staveb té doby. Vydejte se s námi na krátkou pouť východočeským regionem do časem velmi vzdáleného a přece stále aktuálního Československa.

Harminc


Michal Milan Harminc patrí popri D. Jurkovičovi a E. Bellušovi k najvýznamnejším slovenským architektom. Jeho život a výnimočné architektonické dielo mapuje vedecká monografia # Harminc autorov Jany Pohaničovej a Petra Vodrážku. Opiera sa o vedecké poznatky autorov, získané systematickou výskumnou prácou na grantových projektoch doma i v zahraničí. Pútavý životný príbeh, charakteristika jednotlivých tvorivých etáp od historizmov, k moderne a funkcionalizmu spolu s reprezentatívnym typologickým výberom architetových stavieb - to všetko predstavené v roku 150. výročia narodenia a 55. výročia úmrtia nestora, vytvára predpoklad k obohateniu osobnostného spektra slovenskej historiografie architektúry o nové kontexty. Impozantných takmer 300 realizovaných diel rôznych typologických druhov na území bývalého Rakúsko-Uhorska, neskôr Slovenska v rámci vtedajšieho Československa či na pôde nástupníckych štátov - v Maďarsku, v Srbsku, v Rumunsku, no i na Ukrajine ho v rokoch 1887 - 1951 zároveň právom zaradili k najproduktívnejším architektom nielen na Slovensku, ale aj v širšom európskom priestore.Autori v texte prinášajú rad nových poznatkov, ktoré prispievajú k identifikácii architektonických hodnôt Harmincovho diela, a tým aj k ochrane nášho i európskeho kultúrneho dedičstva. Život a dielo tejto výnimočnej osobnosti v knihe ilustrujú vzácne archívne dokumenty (dosiaľ nepublikované), originálne plány, dobové fotografie i aktuálne fotografie, ktoré dotvárajú plastický obraz mohutného architektonického diela nestora. Napriek nesporným vedeckým a odborným hodnotám je kniha nesmierne pútavá aj pre laického čitateľa.

Renaissance People


Like every era, the Renaissance brims with stories. In this book, Robert Davis and Beth Lindsmith highlight dozens of notable lives from between 1400 and 1600. They bring to life wily politicians, eccentric scientists, fiery rebels and stolid reactionaries, as well as a pornographer, an acrobat, an actress, a poetic prostitute, a star comedian and a least one very fretful mother. Some names - Leonardo, Luther, Medici and Machiavelli - are famous, but many others will be new to general readers. Their stories, ninety-four in all, remind us that history is more than dates and abstract concepts: it also arises from the lives of countless individual men and women.

Postkonceptuální antikoncepce


Dialektika předpokladů a reality jednoho projektu Intro z roku 2017: Kateřina Adamová (1977), Michaela Maupicová (1982) a Dana Sahánková (1984) jsou autorky zabývající se především kresbou. Každá s tímto médiem zachází jinak a každá z něho vychází jiným směrem, vstříc jinému horizontu. Název výstavy Postkonceptuální antikoncepce odkazující k radikální kritické tradici DADA, v sobě zrcadlí pro současnost charakteristickou „hru s diskursem“. Výstava si zvolila jako analogon k „hernímu principu současného diskursu“ oblast farmakologie, konkrétně té spjaté s oddálením početí. Pokračování 2018: Antikoncepci v názvu projektu lze ale také vnímat jako ironickou metaforu označující způsob práce, který jde oproti racionálnímu kalkulu spíše cestou intuice a vciťování. Vždyť co je koncepční, to souvisí v první řadě s myšlením, s rozvahou, kalkulem, s nějakým ideovým rozvrhem, jenž sleduje a naplňuje konkrétní cíl. Umělecká tvorba tento moment samozřejmě obsahuje, ale nebývá jediným komponentem uměleckého díla. Petr Vaňous, kurátor výstavy – autor textu.
