Sinatra 100
Frank Sinatra was an entertainer of mesmerizing talent, charisma and style. As well as being one of the bestselling musical artists of all time, he was an Academy Award-winning actor who starred in over sixty movies, and a cultural icon of seismic influence. Created in close collaboration with the Sinatra family and Frank Sinatra Enterprises, this momentous book captures the man in public and private, with exclusive unseen photographs and memorabilia from the family archives, as well as the most iconic images, outtakes and contact sheets from celebrated photo shoots. In candid accounts from his closest friends and associates, a portrait emerges of a man who was intensely loyal to his friends, enthusiastically devoted to charity and who demonstrated exceptional stamina and resilience in a career that spanned an incredible six decades. The result is a captivating tribute to one of the best-loved performers the world has ever known, in a large-format presentation every bit as swanky and swoonsome as the man himself.
Stephen Shore Survivors in Ukraine
A powerful and haunting visual record, Stephen Shore's portraits highlight the resilience and hope of Ukraine's Holocaust survivors. Stephen Shore, one of the most influential photographers living today, traveled to the Ukraine in 2012 and again in 2013, just prior to the current political upheaval, to visit 35 survivors, most of whom are women. In the photographs of the survivors and their homes, Shore visually explores their collective experience as seen through quotidian details, and leaves open the question as to how the history of the Holocaust informs the viewer's reception of the portraits. The book's 200 digital color photographs are organized to create intimate portraits of their individual and collective experiences whilst maintaining the unsentimental formal order of his photography. An essay by Jane Kramer, who has written The New Yorker's Letter from Europe since 1981, will situate the survivors and their stories in the historical context of Ukraine's modern history with a particular emphasis in the place of Jews within that history. An important cultural document, Survivors in Ukraine sits between the traditions of the diaristic colour photobook that Shore himself pioneered with Uncommon Places (1982) and American Surfaces (2005), and that of the 'concerned' photographer using the camera as witness to conflict and other historic events.

Klimt
Gustav Klimt's ornate art expresses the apocalyptic atmosphere of Vienna's upper middle-class society around the turn of the 20th century - a society devoted to the cultivation of aesthetic awareness and the cult of pleasure. The ecstatic joy which Klimt (1862-1918) and his contemporaries found - or hoped to find - in beauty was constantly overshadowed by death. And death therefore plays an important role in Klimt's art. Klimt's fame, however, rests on his reputation as one of the greatest erotic painters and graphic artists of his times. His drawings in particular, which have been widely admired for their artistic excellence, are dominated by the sensual portrayal of women.
Rivera
It was as a revolutionary and troublemaker that Picasso, Dali and Andre Breton described the husband of Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, but he was also responsible for creating a public art that was both highly advanced and profoundly accessible. From 1910 Rivera lived in Europe where he absorbed the influence of Cubism. After the Mexican revolution, however, he returned to his homeland and harnessed the lessons of the European avant-garde to the needs of the Mexican people. His own murals, and those of the Mexican Muralists who followed his example, presented a utopian vision of a post-revolutionary Mexico. Rivera's historical paintings expressed his interpretation of the revolution and its ideals, in a style that showed him returning to the pre-Columbian roots of Mexican culture, re-inventing a colourfully realistic visual idiom that could appeal directly to a largely illiterate people. This is the first study which, independently of the exhibition circuit, coherently presents the work of this extraordinary artist.
Caravaggio
Notorious bad boy of Italian Baroque painting, Caravaggio (1571-1610) is finally getting the recognition he deserves. Though his name may be familiar to all of us, his work had been habitually detested and forced into obscurity. Not only was his theatrical realism unfashionable in his time, but his sacrilegious subject matter and use of lower-class models were violently scorned. Caravaggio's great work had the misfortune of enduring centuries of disrepute. It wasn't until the end of the 19th century that he was rediscovered and, quite posthumously, deemed a great master. He is now considered the most important painter of the early Baroque period; without him there would have been no Ribera. Zurbaran, Velazquez, Vermeer or Georges de La Tour. Frans Hals, Rembrandt, Delacroix, and Manet would have been different. In this book you'll find over 50 of Caravaggio's best paintings; we think you'll agree that he was a genius beyond his time.
Leonardo
One of the most accomplished human beings who ever lived, Leonardo remains the quintessential Renaissance genius. Creator of the world's most famous painting, this scientist, artist, philosopher, inventor, builder, and mechanic epitomized the great flowering of human consciousness that marks his era. And yet, so wide-ranging and prolific were his interests that he brought hardly any major undertaking to a final end. In his thousands of notes and sketches, Leonardo would not only demonstrate his graphic genius but also anticipate some of the great discoveries and inventions that would follow him, from key points in anatomy - such as the principles behind blood circulation - through to plans for armoured military vehicles, planes, helicopters and submarines. Leonardo also advanced numerous artistic techniques, achieving a complex psychology in such paintings as The Last Supper and the enigmatic La Gioconda, or Mona Lisa, which continue to mesmerize visitors from around the world to this day.
Keramika
Marta Taberyová, sochařka a keramička, patří k předním osobnostem této výtvarné kategorie v poválečné české generaci. Narozena v Olomouci, je dnes svou existencí a tvorbou plně zakotvena v Praze. Po studiu na středních průmyslových školách v Železném Brodě a v Praze, získala solidní výtvarné vzdělání na vysoké škole uměleckoprůmyslové v Praze v ateliéru profesora Otto Eckerta (1949–1954). Ve vlastní ateliérové tvorbě, uznávané doma i v zahraničí, realizovala svůj dosavadní profesionální život.
Umění Marty Taberyové působí jako laskavé pohlazení. Zvláště v posledním desetiletí, propagujícím v mylně chápané svobodě projevu a touze po originalitě svět plný katastrof, deformací a zrůd, uvádí nás autorka do světa pozitivních, optimistických a lyrických stránek naší vezdejší existence, které dnešní člověk potřebuje jako vzduch k dýchání. A láska k životu provází každý autorčin reliéf.
Mikrosvěty keramických obrazů vznikají v dílně autorky pomocí bravurně zvládnuté keramické technologie právě tak jako citlivostí sochařské modelace. Hravě působící, přesto náročný proces je dále propojen s erudovanými, léta studovanými barevnými glazurami, jejichž matný povrch oživuje bohatá povrchová struktura. Reliéfy jsou komponovány do dvou až tří perspektivních plánů, kde zejména v krajinných pohledech dokáže Taberyová v zadním plánu vyvolat iluzi dalekých obzorů.
Za výsledky celoživotního díla Marty Taberyové bychom museli cestovat jak do zahraničí, kde jsou trvale umístěny její realizace v architektuře v sousedním Německu ve Frankfurtu nad Mohanem, v Essenu, v Bad Koenigsteinu, tak po celé naší republice, do Ostravy, Pardubic, Neratovic a mnohých jiných míst. V Praze se s dílem Marty Taberyové shledáme na celé řadě míst, například ve stanici metra na Smíchovském nádraží „Krajina“, nebo ve Stavovském divadle v kompozici „Po představení“.
Dílo Marty Taberyové, členky mezinárodní keramické akademie AIC v Ženevě, oceněné pro jeho kvality četnými vyznamenáními a medailemi je dnes rovněž zastoupeno v mnoha domácích a zahraničních sbírkách a galeriích současného umění.
Keramické obrazy a plastiky Marty Taberyové i v dnešní době svým pozitivním postojem k životní filosofii nemohou diváka než upřímně potěšit.

Francis Bacon (1909-1992) possessed the rare ability to transform unconscious compulsions into figurative, human-like forms that seem to evoke the raw emotions that bore them. Mixing realism and abstraction, Bacon delves deep beneath the surfaces of things, opening up the human body to reveal the chaos that lies within and struggling with all that is inexplicable. Erotic and grotesquely beautiful is the work of this legendary painter whose haunting, distorted figures have inspired entire generations of painters who seek to emulate his highly original style.
Steinweiss
Alex Steinweiss invented the album cover as we know it. In 1940, as Columbia Records' young new art director, he pitched an idea: Why not replace the standard plain brown wrapper with an eye-catching illustration? The company took a chance, and within months its record sales increased by over 800 per cent. Over the next three decades, Steinweiss made thousands of original artworks for classical, jazz, and popular record covers for Columbia, Decca, London, and Everest; as well as logos, labels, advertising material, even his own typeface, the Steinweiss Scrawl. His daring designs, gathered here in all their bright combinations of bold typography with modern, elegant illustration, revolutionized the way music was sold. Less well known, but also included in this collection, are Steinweiss' posters for the US. Navy; packaging and label design for liquor companies; film title sequences; as well as his fine art. The book includes Steiweiss' personal recollections and ephemera from an epic career, as well as insightful essays by three-time Grammy Award-winning art director/designer Kevin Reagan and graphic design historian Steven Heller.
Artists Living with Art
Artists Living with Art is full of fascinating and often surprising revelations about the artworks a select group of the world's most influential contemporary artists choose to collect and display in the intimacy of their own homes. (Just as Andy Warhol famously collected cookie jars, so do these 25 artists, all living in New York, collect art and in some cases, mundane objects they cherish as art.) The works they display reflect remarkably diverse, eclectic and often unexpected tastes. Many of these homes, some of which also function as studios, have never been seen and offer unique insight into each artists' personal life, creative process, and artistic practices, as well as what inspires them and who their friends are (many swap art with one another).Readers will learn about the pieces most treasured by each artist, as well as their favourite period in art (a surprising number have a preference for pre-twentieth-century art). Authors Stacey Goergen and Amanda Benchley gained unprecedented access into each home for the photography and interviews, and highly acclaimed photographer Oberto Gili was commissioned to shoot the these homes especially for the book. Intimacies from such artists as Cindy Sherman, Brice Marden, Eric Fishl, Michelle Oka Doner and Will Cotton are shared through the engaging, accessible text and gorgeous photography Featured Artists: Cindy Sherman Brice Marden Will Cotton Jeff Koons John Currin & Rachel Feinstein Eric Fischl & April Gornick Chuck Close Joel Shapiro & Ellen Phalen Leo Villareal Marilyn Minter Michelle Oka Donar Mickalene Thomas Andres Serrano Pat Steir Rashid Johnson Tauba Auerbach Timothy Greenfield-Sanders Ursula von Rydingsvard Mary Heilmann Ugo Rondinone Julian Lethbridge Joan Jonas EV Day
Milan Dobeš, Svetlo a pohyb / Light & Motion
Milan Dobeš je zriedkavým prípadom slovenského umelca, ktorý sa etabloval na medzinárodnej výtvarnej scéne už v polovici šesťdesiatych rokov minulého storočia. Po ranom období ovplyvnenom impresionizmom a zameranom na motívy Bratislavy sa vo svojom "modrom? období orientuje na výdobytky francúzskej moderny, sústreďuje sa na autonómnosť obrazovej plochy a jej jednotlivých štruktúr. od polovice šesťdesiatych rokov sa naplno venuje konštruktivistickej tvorbe, skúma problematiku svetla a pohybu. Svoje umelecké krédo zhŕňa do dvoch manifestov: O svetle a pohybe (1967) a O dynamickom konštruktivizme (1988). Čoskoro sa stáva jedným z najvýznamnejších predstaviteľom konštruktivizmu a kinetizmu na svete.
The Nedbalka Gallery has managed to build a rather extensive collection of works by this extraordinary artist. The collection provides a comprehensive overwiev of artist´s individual creativperiods and fundamental tendencies and directions of his body of work.
