Michelangelo


Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni; az olasz reneszánsz kimagasló mestere, egyike a képzőművészet legnagyobb alakjainak.

Bertoia


A celebration of the rich and varied work of Italian-born American artist, designer, and master of metal, Harry Bertoia From chapel altarpieces and bronze fountains, to wire chairs and silver brooches, Harry Bertoia's creative output was varied in the extreme. This new book explores his entire career: his move from Italy to Detroit at 15; his formative years at Cranbrook; his work with Charles Eames and Knoll; through to his fascinating sound sculptures. In doing so, the book demonstrates how seemingly disparate works are in fact united in being reflections of nature, and places Bertoia's art squarely at the heart of American modernism.

Making Marks


Making Marks follows up the highly successful Architects' Sketchbooks, which presented, for the first time, the rich breadth of sketches being created by contemporary architects following the digital revolution. Taking a post-digital perspective, the sixty renowned architects whose work is collected here show how drawing and new forms of manual presentation have been refined since the reawakening of this basic technique. Notepads, stacks of paper, pencils and fine-point pens are as present in the architect's studio as phalanxes of screens. Revealing why and how hand-drawing still matters, this global survey presents the freehand drawings, vibrant watercolours and abstract impressions of rising talents and well-known names, including Jun Igarashi and Brian MacKay-Lyons. Will Jones's introduction reviews the importance of the physical sketch and its vital part in the architect's creative process. Spanning diverse approaches, styles and physical forms, ,i>Making Marks is not merely a compendium of the preoccupations and stylistics of current practice, but a rich and varied insight into architectural creativity.

Landscapes in Oil


Landscapes in Oil is the first-ever comprehensive guide to classical landscape painting reinterpreted for the twenty-first century. Drawing from the tradition established by American painters of the Hudson River School - artists like Thomas Cole, Frederic Church, and George Inness - author and painter Ken Salaz reveals great masters' philosophy and methods, updating their approaches for the contemporary landscape painter. Beginning painters are given the basic tools and step-by-step demonstrations, intermediate painters are challenged with unpublished techniques that allow them to break through to the next level, and advanced painters learn to apply their skills under unified theories. Landscapes in Oil devotes a chapter to each of the fundamental elements of landscape painting - drawing, value, color, composition, and light quality - and offers critical advice on selecting tools and materials, choosing colors, and structuring your palette for best results. Emphasizing the necessity of plein air drawing and painting, Salaz demonstrates how to translate small, quick studies made outdoors into full-scale studio paintings. He provides detailed step-by-step breakdowns of the creation of four of his own paintings, focusing not only on application but also on the ideas that underpin every decision a landscape painter must make. The scores of landscape masterworks, past and present, that illustrate this book have been carefully chosen for their aesthetic power and because each embodies a specific aspect of the landscape painter's craft. For Salaz, landscape painting is a noble pursuit, and the goal of the landscape artist is not to paint "pretty pictures" but to create compelling images that express human beings' profound connection to nature in all its diversity and grandeur. At a time when classical landscape is enjoying a renaissance in art schools, ateliers, and galleries across North America, this book is an essential resource for beginning and experienced painters alike.

Imro Weiner - Kráľ


Reprezentatívna monografia predstavuje na 334 stranách tvorbu Imra Weinera-Kráľa z celého tvorivého obdobia, a to nielen olejomaľbu, ale aj akvarely a kresby. Publikácia nadväzuje na monografiu z roku 2001, ale neopakuje diela už predtým reprodukované. Na rozdiel od predchádzajúcej je rozčlenená do deviatich tematických okruhov, ktoré sú uvádzané citáciami autora a celá kniha je aj bilingválna: francúzsko-slovenská. Okrem autorky koncepcie a textu výtvarnej teoretičky Dagmar Kudoláni Srnenskej je spoluautorkou aj dcéra maliara Elise Weiner Kral, ktorá napísala krásnu a dojímavú spomienku na otca. Zostavovateľka knihy Dagmar Kudoláni Srnenská sa zamerala na menej známe maľby a tak vybrala na reprodukovanie diela nielen z majetku desiatich slovenských galérií, ale vhodne ich doplnila prácami zo súkromných zbierok. Dôležitou súčasťou monografie je kalendárium, fotografie zo života umelca a jeho rodiny, maliarove spomienky na roky strávené doma a v zahraničí, ako aj jeho komentáre k vlastnej tvorbe a výtvarnému dianiu doby, v ktorej žil a pracoval. Koncepcia: Dagmar Kudoláni Srnenská, texty: Imro Weiner-Kráľ, Elise Weiner Kral, Dagmar Kudoláni Srnenská. Preklady z a do francúzštiny: Dagmar Ondrejková v spolupráci s Elise Weiner Kral. Grafická úprava a dizajn: Juraj Blaško.
