This little book is full of big ideas from contemporary artists to inspire you to think differently. With a new idea on every spread of the book, you will discover fresh ways of working with watercolour to create work that is original and exciting.
Fotografie především
Dějiny fotografie by mohly být zároveň dějinami zápasu o její uznání jako takzvaného vysokého umění. To přišlo velmi pozdě a se stejným zpožděním se na fotografii začalo nahlížet jako na sbírkový umělecký předmět hodný zájmu historiků umění.
V domácím, ale i ve světovém kontextu byla jednou z prvních institucí, jež fotografii v tomto ohledu vzala na milost Moravská galerie v Brně, kam do čela sbírky fotografie nastoupil v roce 1968 Antonín Dufek a jako emeritní kurátor zde působí dodnes.
Z velké části to byla právě jeho činnost, která české (a slovenské) fotografii vytvořila pevné místo v rámci dějin umění a také dokázala českou fotografii zviditelnit a proslavit v zahraničí.
Tato publikace je tak poctou osobnosti Antonína Dufka a jak jinak, je zcela věnována fotografii.
Kniha obsahuje třináct studií předních historiků a teoretiků umění, které doprovází rozsáhlý rozhovor s Antonínem Dufkem a také jeho výběrová bibliografie.
The Book of Ornamental Alphabets
Whether you're a type nerd, an illustrator or a professional designer, The Book Of Ornamental Alphabets is the perfect sourcebook. FIRST PUBLISHED IN 1858, Frederick Delamotte's Ornamental Alphabets Ancient & Mediaeval was an immediate hit, and a huge influence on generations of designers in every medium.
An idiosyncratic, personal selection of over fifty scripts and typefaces, it remains guaranteed to inspire anyone with an interest in lettering, from designers and artists to tattooists, hand-letterers, and calligraphers.
A Journey Through Art
A Journey Through Art is a global history of art with a time- travel twist, taking young readers on a expedition from the Paleolithic period to the present day, voyaging to thirty locations around the world. As readers travel from one incredible destination to the next, they discover the amazing network of caves carved into the rock in AD 500 at Ajanta, India; Cambodia's Angkor Wat as it stood in AD 1200; the glories of Renaissance Florence in AD 1500; and the remarkable energy of New York in the 1950s. At every location readers encounter stories of artworks and the cultures that surrounded them.
The journey is chronological with three sections: prehistoric and ancient; medieval and early modern; and modern and contemporary. Two beautifully illustrated spreads showcase each destination, allowing children to engage with the art, artifacts, and culture of a unique place in time as Aaron Rosen tells the story of how art developed across the world.
The Spirit of the Bauhaus
‘Architects, sculptors, painters, we all must return to the crafts!’ declared the architect Walter Gropius in his Bauhaus manifesto. Founded as an art school in 1919 and forced to close in 1933 by the Nazis, the Bauhaus established itself as a major influence on 20th-century art and design that continues to this day.
The Bauhaus opened in Weimar, the progressive heart of Germany’s postwar republic. Under its first director, Walter Gropius, students were taught by some of the most celebrated artists of the time, including Paul Klee, Lyonel Feininger and Wassily Kandinsky. The school moved to Dessau in 1922, under its radical new director Hannes Meyer, and to Berlin in 1932 under architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. In 1933 the Gestapo forced the Bauhaus to close for the last time.
This volume uncovers the sources of inspiration that brought the Bauhaus into existence, from medieval cathedrals of Europe and Hokusai prints to William Morris and Arts and Crafts. Each of the various workshops and courses at the Bauhaus is explored in detail, illustrating the extraordinary wealth of experimentation in every field: ceramics, woodwork, metalwork, textiles, glass-painting, sculpture, mural, printing and binding, typography and publicity, theatre, architecture and photography.
This essential and accessible guide to the Bauhaus, its history and turbulent political context, provides the key to understanding why it is recognized as the most durable and influential source of modern ideas about art, design and craft.

Meluzin
Diela Petra Meluzina reagujú na súčasné socio-kultúrne fenomény sprítomňované optikou každodenného života jednotlivca. Tvorba vizuálneho umelca, či už ide o príspevky do akčného umenia z osemdesiatych rokov alebo o oblasť nových médií ako objekty, inštalácie a videodiela, ktoré začal vytvárať v deväťdesiatych rokoch, odráža vplyv sociálnej reality na jedinca a jej následky, komunikované typickou dikciou umelca s prídychom humoru, irónie, sarkazmu a jedinečným talentom pre vytáranie vizuálnych i obsahových paradoxov. Publikácia sumarizuje a analyzuje jeho tvorbu v ťažiskových kategóriách: nielen ako dôležitého priekopníka videoumenia, ale aj významného organizátora a autora akcií, tiež približuje jeho akčno-konceptuálne realizácie a zasväcuje čitateľa aj do umelcovho obsiahleho portfólia nerealizovaných projektov. Ponúka tak pohľad na viac než tri desaťročia tvorby tohto popredného predstaviteľa slovenského súčasného umenia.
Out of China
Even at the high noon of Europe's empire-building China nonetheless kept its sovereignty. Robert Bickers' major new book is the first to describe fully what has proved to be one of the modern era's most important stories: the long, often agonizing process by which the Chinese had by the end of the 20th century regained control of their own country. Out of China uses a brilliant array of unusual, strange and vivid sources to recreate a now fantastically remote world. Today Chinese nationalism stays firmly rooted in memories of its degraded past - the quest for self-sufficiency, the determination to assert China's standing in the world, to stake its outstanding territorial claims, and never to be vulnerable to renewed attack. History matters deeply to Beijing's current rulers - and Out of China explains why.
Jak rozumět populární kultuře
Populární a masová kultura se do hledáčku akademického zájmu dostávala pomalu. V sedmdesátých a osmdesátých letech 20. století se okruh západních akademiků věnujících se soustavně populární kultuře začal rozšiřovat a daný zájem přestal působit excesivně. Ne-vysoká kultura však byla vykládána ještě v duchu své zajímavé pokleslosti, z hlediska toho, čím je jiná než kultura elitní. Teprve kniha Jak rozumět populární kultuře Johna Fiskea (nar. 1939) poskytla akademicky fundovaný, sémioticky založený výklad populární kultury v její komplexnosti. Dílo respektuje v tradičním pojetí jakožto tvůrčí čin, ale zároveň ho chápe i jako tržní komoditu; vnímatelem rozumí hravého fanouška, jemuž však neupírá funkci spolutvůrce významů. Fiske nevykládá populární kulturu emancipačně, nesnaží se ji propašovat do středu akademického zájmu proto, že je na ní také něco zajímavého. Promyšleně ukazuje, jak složitá je síť sociokulturních mechanismů, v níž tento typ kultury funguje, a jak přirozeně se umělecké dílo mísí s životním stylem, sférami každodennosti či s ekonomickými kritérii. Jeho výklad je podložený argumentačně, a přitom „popkulturní“, tedy čtivý a podněcující.

Zbyněk Sekal: Knižní obálky - Fotografické skici - Skládané obrazy
"Sochař, malíř a knižní grafik Zbyněk Sekal, se narodil v roce 1923 a žil v Československu až do své emigrace v roce 1968. Od té doby až do své smrti v roce 1998 žil a působil v Rakousku. Fotografoval od druhé poloviny šedesátých let, ale filmy zvětšoval je jen jako "kontakty". Tyto fotografie mají tak velkou vizuální příbuznost s jeho oficiálním sochařským dílem, že vyvstala myšlenka, jestli mu nesloužili jako fotografické skici k materiálovým reliéfům, plastikám, ale i k návrhům knižních obálek. Kniha Zbyněk Sekal knižní obálky fotografie skládané obrazy, je konfrontací těchto miniaturních fotografií, jeho knižních obálek, kterým se Sekal věnoval po dobu života a skládaných obrazů, reliéfů. Tímto srovnáním vzniká nový celistvější pohled na Sekala jako výtvarníka a českého umělce, tvořícího ve skrytu své doby. Jde tedy o uměleckohistorický objev výjimečné kvality."
Účast
Účast malíře v díle, účast pozorovatele v díle. Dílo jako prostor vzájemné komunikace tvůrce a diváka. Vizuální vnímání předmětné skutečnosti tvůrcem a její převod do díla. Obraz a jeho pravda. To jsou základní témata knížky. Obraz nelze vymyslet. Je třeba ho dělat, pracovat na něm. Kdy bude dokončen, se nedá dopředu odhadnout. Těch chvil, kdy se zdá, že se v práci chýlíme ke konci, je v jejím průběhu více. Často to jsou jen falešné signály spojené s chvilkovou radostí nad dobře nanesenou barevnou skvrnou detailu, jejíž zdánlivá prvotní oprávněnost může záhy ztroskotat na její neschopnosti komunikovat s obrazem v jeho celku. To, co se malíři ještě před chvílí zdálo jako možný správný krok v práci, obraz nechce, a skvrnu je potřeba udělat jinak. A to je dobrá zpráva, protože v této chvíli začíná být obraz sám sebou obrazem, který je ochotný s malířem komunikovat. Obraz ví, jak barvu namíchat, jakou má mít barva hustotu, jak má být pokládána. Malíř sám to neví, ale umí, pokud zná řemeslo.

Susan Meiselas - Mediations
"For me, the essence of documentary photography has always been to do with evidence." --Susan Meiselas
A member of Magnum Photos since 1976, Susan Meiselas became known for her work in the conflict zones of Central America in the 1970s and '80s and for the strength of her color photography. Covering many subjects and countries, from war to human-rights issues and from cultural identity to the sex industry, Meiselas uses photography, film, video and sometimes archive material, as she relentlessly explores and develops narratives integrating the participation of her subjects in her works. Meiselas constantly questions the photographic process and her role as witness.
Presenting a selection of works from the 1970s through the present day, Susan Meiselas: Mediations retraces her trajectory from the 1970s to the present. Published to accompany a major traveling retrospective of the photographer's work, it features an illustrious list of contributors that includes Ariella Azoulay, Eduardo Cadava and Kristin Lubben, among others.
Susan Meiselas (born 1948) studied at Sarah Lawrence College and Harvard University, taking up photography in the early 1970s. She is credited with being one of the first to work with color in documentary photography, a controversial decision when she was shooting the conflict in Nicaragua in the late 1970s. Meiselas joined Magnum Photos in 1976 and has worked as a freelance photographer since then.
Jean Pagliuso - In Plain Sight
Jean Pagliuso: In Plain Sight surveys the multifaceted career of photographer Jean Pagliuso (born 1941). Pagliuso began her career in fashion, shooting for magazines like Mademoiselle, and rose to collaborate with film studios and directors, taking photographs on the sets of movies like American Gigolo and Three Women. In the mid-1990s, Pagliuso shifted to experimenting with photographic printing processes--a concern that still animates her work--but her experience in the fashion and motion picture industries continues to inflect her photography, imbuing it with a subtle sense of theatricality. Whether Pagliuso is photographing the expansive deserts of New Mexico, the pyramids of Egypt, fashion models or chickens, she produces engaging and ethereal images with an indelible presence. This comprehensive monograph on Pagliuso's career of over five decades features an introduction and personal essay by Jean Pagliuso.
Wim Wendres Instant Stories
Globetrotting filmmaker Wim Wenders always takes his old panorama camera with him, using it whenever the sheer wealth of what he sees and the impression it leaves on him breaks the normal scale of things. Infinite landscapes, endless horizons, deserts, and mountain ranges overwhelm by their emptiness and silence, street fronts in Havana, Houston, Berlin, or Jerusalem offer deep insights into the shallows of civilization. Wenders' photographs are pictures of a world almost devoid of humans, a natural or man-made world viewed from a distance. They shed light on the many guises the surface of the earth dons and attest to Wenders' contemplative and amazed gaze. This gaze, of course, didn't stop at September 11 and delivered haunting photos of Ground Zero taken shortly after the attack. With poetic comments by the artist on all the pictures, the book is both a portrait of the world as encountered by the photographer and a portrait of the photographer as reflected in his vision of the world.

Misere
The coming of the Industrial Revolution in the early 19th century witnessed unprecedented changes in society: rapid economic progress went hand-in-hand with appalling working conditions, displacement, squalor and destitution for those at the bottom of the social scale. These new circumstances presented a challenge to contemporary image-makers, who wished to capture the effects of hunger, poverty and alienation in Britain, Ireland and France in the era before documentary photography. In this groundbreaking book, the eminent art historian Linda Nochlin examines the styles and expressive strategies that were used by artists and illustrators to capture this misere, roughly characterized as poverty that afflicts both body and soul. She investigates images of the Irish Famine in the period 1846–51; the gendered representation of misery, particularly of poor women and prostitutes; and the work of three very different artists: Théodore Géricault, Gustave Courbet and the less wellknown Fernand Pelez. The artists’ desire to depict the poor and the outcast accurately and convincingly is still a pertinent issue, though now, as Nochlin observes, the question has a moral and ethical dimension – does the documentary style belittle its subjects and degrade their condition?
