David Goldblatt: Photographs 1948–2018
The largest retrospective of Goldblatt's work to date and marks the photographer's final project before his death
David Goldblatt was internationally renowned for documenting South Africa's people and turbulent history with a quiet determination and unflinching sense of what is right and just, and what is not.
Capturing seven decades of his work, David Goldblatt: Photographs 1948-2018 features his compelling portrayal of the rise and dismantling of apartheid. This exhibition includes his striking key black-and-white and colour photographic series, as well as never-before-seen material from his personal archive.
This exhibition, exclusive to Sydney, will be the largest retrospective of Goldblatt's work in the region and marks the photographer's final project before his death.
Anja Niemi: In Character
Anja Niemi: In Character is the first career retrospective/monograph by one of the most exciting talents working in contemporary photography, whose work has emerged as a distinctive force within the venerable tradition of conceptual self-portraiture. A photo-artist who works alone - photographing, staging and acting out the characters in all of her images - Niemi is a constant presence, in character, in her work, developing complex, nuanced narratives through evocative costume and styling, her characters framed and formed within meticulously staged mise-en-scene. In her bewitching `Darlene & Me' series, for example, she reconfigures the concept of the Hitchcock blonde within a pristine Lynchian landscape for her own visual pleasure - and ours - while in `She Could Have Been A Cowboy' she turns the lens to a life lived under the constraints of conformity.
Anja Niemi is now at the `breakout moment' in her career, having had exhibitions in Amsterdam, London, New York, Oslo and Paris, and with her first museum retrospective show opening at Fotografiska Museum in Stockholm in February 2019. With over 100 photographs organized into the six series that have marked Niemi's career to date, supported by an essay and interview by Max Houghton, Anja Niemi: In Character is the perfect introduction for those encountering Niemi's work for the first time, and a comprehensive retrospective of her career to date for her long-time followers.
Leonardo da Vinci: A Closer Look
The Royal Collection holds the finest collection of Leonardo da Vinci's drawings in existence. This groundbreaking book explores a substantial number of Leonardo's most celebrated works, drawn from the Collection, in unprecedented detail. Using specialist microscopic photography, this volume opens up a fresh understanding and appreciation of Leonardo's innovative techniques and presents new information on his materials, uncovering features previously invisible to the naked eye. In addition, infrared images bring to light the artist's first touches (including Leonardo's own thumbprint) and under-drawings, many of which have not been seen in five hundred years. This stunning volume presents a totally new way to appreciate the genius of Leonardo da Vinci.
Nick Brandt: This Empty World
This Empty World, Nick Brandt's new monograph, features a series of dramatically staged photographs that bring together and reveal the animals and people of East Africa as the victims of environmental degradation in an emotionally powerful, cinematic way. Moving into colour photography for the first time, the work is both a technical tour-de-force and a massively ambitious project in which several sets are constructed on a scale typically only seen in film production. Each panoramic image is a combination of two moments in time, almost all of them captured weeks apart from the exact same camera position.
Brandt first builds and lights a partial set, then waits for the animals that inhabit the region to enter the frame. Once captured on camera, the full set is built with the camera remaining fixed in place. The sets include bridge and highway construction sites, a petrol station, a bus station and even a dead forest.
Completing the scene with a huge cast drawn from local communities, Brandt then photographs the second sequence. The final large scale prints are a composite of the two intricately plotted elements. Viewed as a whole, the images vividly illustrate a world in which, overwhelmed by runaway human development, there is no longer space for animals to survive, and beg the question: what kind of world will we live in when stripped of its natural wonders.
Photographed on unprotected, inhabited Maasai community land, after the sets were removed and their elements recycled, no evidence of the images now remains in the landscape.
The Birth of Loud
A riveting saga in the history of rock `n' roll: the decades-long rivalry between the two men who innovated the electric guitar's amplified sound-Leo Fender and Les Paul-and their intense competition to convince rock stars like the Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, and Eric Clapton to play the instruments they built. In the years after World War II, music was evolving from big-band jazz into the primordial elements of rock 'n' roll-and these louder styles demanded revolutionary instruments. When Leo Fender's tiny firm marketed the first solid-body electric guitar, the Esquire, musicians immediately saw its appeal.
Not to be out-maneuvered, Gibson, the largest guitar manufacturer, raced to build a competitive product. The company designed an "axe" that would make Fender's Esquire look cheap and convinced Les Paul-whose endorsement Leo Fender had sought-to put his name on it. Thus was born the guitar world's most heated rivalry: Gibson versus Fender, Les versus Leo.
While Fender was a quiet, half-blind, self-taught radio repairman from rural Orange County, Paul was a brilliant but egomaniacal pop star and guitarist who spent years toying with new musical technologies. Their contest turned into an arms race as the most inventive musicians of the 1950s and 1960s-including bluesman Muddy Waters, rocker Buddy Holly, the Beatles, Bob Dylan, and Eric Clapton-adopted one maker's guitar or another. By the time Jimi Hendrix played "The Star-Spangled Banner" at Woodstock in 1969 on his Fender Stratocaster, it was clear that electric instruments-Fender or Gibson-had launched music into a radical new age, empowering artists with a vibrancy and volume never before attainable.
Drawing: A Complete Guide
A comprehensive practice-based guide to the art of drawing, Drawing: A Complete Guide provides a chapter-by-chapter overview of key elements of drawing (such as line, shape, tone and value) before addressing the different genres (such as still life and portraiture). Written in an accessible and encouraging manner, Drawing: A Complete Guide seeks to build the learner's confidence in artistic exploration as well as developing his or her practical abilities. An introductory chapter makes the case that anyone can draw, while the concluding chapter, `Looking at Drawings: Critical Thinking and Critiques', equips learners with the necessary critical tools to develop their craft independently.
Richly illustrated with examples of artists' drawings and the author's own works, Drawing: A Complete Guide also includes student work to make the practice of drawing more accessible and achievable.
Darované půlstoletí
Malíř a básník Vladimír Josef Dvořák (*1967) patří mezi výrazné osobnosti českého moderního umění uplynulého půlstoletí spojující výtvarné i slovesné vyjadřování v jeden celek.

Vedle reprodukcí děl jsou otištěny i jeho statě vysvětlující teoretická východiska tvorby a biografická dokumentace.
Doslov Václava Maliny, malíře, grafika, kurátora, pedagoga a dlouholetého ředitele Galerie města Plzně rámuje osobními vzpomínkami čtenářský zážitek z obrazového příběhu VJD a zdůrazňuje, že .radost z tvorby je charakteristickým rysem jeho usilování až dodnes.

Marcel Duchamp 100 Questions, 100 Answers
Celebrating Marcel Duchamp's revolutionary contributions to modern art, this innovative exploration of the Stuttgart Duchamp Collection and the Archive of Serge Stauffer offers new insights into both artists' philosophies. As the inventor of the Readymade and a founder of conceptual art, Marcel Duchamp's work is still provoking important discussions about what defines art. Accompanying the first exhibition of the important Stuttgart Duchamp Collection, this book also presents the work of the Swiss artist and educator Serge Stauffer and his renowned research on Duchamp's art and writings. The series of 100 questions Stauffer wrote to the French artist in 1960-and Duchamp's answers-provide important insights into Duchamp's intellectual and creative practice and bear witness to the depth of Stauffer's exceptional research. This book opens with an introduction to the relationship between Duchamp and Stauffer. It features brilliant reproductions of Duchamp's most renowned works, including Bottlerack, the painting study for Chocolate Grinder, No 2, and the window object La Bagarre d'Austerlitz. A biographical essay on both Duchamp and Stauffer provides important background to understanding the exceptional relationship between both artists.

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).
