D'Hancarville. The Complete Collection of Antiquities from the Cabinet of Sir William Hamilton
Antiquarian, archaeologist, vulcanologist, and envoy to the British Embassy in Naples, Sir William Hamilton (1731-1803) was a leading European figure of his time. Though the romance between his wife Lady Emma Hamilton and Horatio Nelson tends to eclipse Sir William's own activities, his work as a scientist and a classicist made major contributions to the study of Pompei, Herculaneum, and Mt. Vesuvius.
As an expert in ancient art, Hamilton also built up an invaluable collection of ancient Greek vases, subsequently sold to the British Museum in London in 1772. Before the pieces were shipped off to England, Hamilton commissioned Pierre-Francois Hugues d'Hancarville, an adventurous connoisseur and art dealer, to document the vases in words and images. The resulting catalog, published in four volumes and known as Les Antiquites d'Hancarville, represents a neoclassical masterpiece. Never before had ancient vases been represented with such meticulous detail and sublime beauty.
With this reprint, TASCHEN revives d'Hancarville's masterful catalog for a contemporary audience, reproducing in exacting detail the same pristine images that sparked Europe's love affair with the classical style.

Guo Pei: Couture Fantasy
A resplendent celebration of the spectacular fashion designs of Guo Pei, China's first and preeminent couturier
Guo Pei: Couture Fantasy is a journey into the imaginative world of Guo Pei, China's first couturier and one of the world's most innovative fashion designers. Guo Pei has astonished fashion audiences from Beijing to Paris for over 20 years and made headlines in the U.S. as the designer of Rihanna's trailing yellow gown at the 2015 Met Gala. Known for dazzling designs which make the implausible possible, Guo Pei takes inspiration from sources as varied as China's imperial heritage, European architecture, and the botanical world; she has been sought for commissions by celebrities, royalty, and the Olympics. With more than 200 color illustrations highlighting 60 of her exquisite creations, this sumptuous volume showcases the garments' consummate craftsmanship, lavish embroidery, and unconventional dressmaking techniques, all of which are hallmarks of Guo Pei's work. In addition to its visual splendor, the book features a Q&A with the designer, a facsimile sketchbook, and a chronology tracing her career from its start at the Beijing Industrial School of Design to celebrated couturier.

Bernd & Hilla Becher
The first comprehensive, posthumous monograph and retrospective on Bernd and Hilla Becher, best known for their photographs of industrial structures in Europe and North America
For more than five decades, Bernd (1931-2007) and Hilla (1934-2015) Becher collaborated on photographs of industrial architecture in Germany, France, Belgium, Holland, Great Britain, and the United States. This sweeping monograph features the Bechers' quintessential pictures, which present water towers, gas tanks, blast furnaces, and more as sculptural objects. Beyond the Bechers' iconic Typologies, the book includes Bernd's early drawings, Hilla's independent photographs, and excerpts from their notes, sketchbooks, and journals. The book's authors offer new insights into the development of the artists' process, their work's conceptual underpinnings, the photographers' relationship to deindustrialization, and the artists' legacy. An essay by award-winning cultural historian Lucy Sante and an interview with Max Becher, the artists' son, make this volume an unrivaled look into the Bechers' art, life, and career.

Frida Kahlo: The Painter and Her Work
This definitive appreciation of Kahlo's career features gorgeous full-page reproductions and insightful commentary to illuminate connections between the artist's life and work.
Few painters have been as celebrated and adopted into popular culture as Frida Kahlo-often to the detriment of her amazing achievements as a painter.
In this striking volume, one of the world's foremost scholars on Kahlo's art looks past the hype to focus on the artist's technique and motifs. Reproductions of Kahlo's paintings, along with selected details, are accompanied by illuminating observations about the role of physical and mental suffering in the creative process, Kahlo's mastery and reinvention of European traditions, and the wealth of coded and metaphorical elements hidden in so much of her work.
A rich and rewarding exploration of an artist all too easily reduced to a single narrative, this nuanced study is also an exquisitely produced celebration of Kahlo's genius.
Michael Kenna: Forms of Japan
A rocky coast along the Sea of Japan; an immense plain of rice fields in the snow; Mount Fuji towering over misty wooded hills; silent temples devoid of people but brimming with Buddhist deities; a Torii gate mysteriously emerging from moving clouds and water-these are a few images from this remarkable collection of photographs by Michael Kenna, whose black-and-white work is highly renowned. Forms of Japan, brilliantly designed by Yvonne Meyer-Lohr, is organized into chapters simply titled, "Sea," "Land," "Trees," "Spirit," and "Sky." The quietly evocative photographs, often paired with classic haiku poems of Basho, Buson, Issa and others, provide a contemplative portrait of a country better-known for its energy and industry. Gorgeously reproduced to convey the enormous subtleties that exist in Michael Kenna's traditional black-and-white silver prints, the photographs in this book include both well-known and previously unpublished images from all corners of Japan: Hokkaido, Honshu, Kyushu, Okinawa and Shikoku.
The Beauty of Ukraine
On 24 February 2022, the invasion of Ukraine by Russian troops began. Since then, Russia's war of aggression has continued with increasing ferocity and destruction. Millions of Ukrainians have fled to neighbouring European countries. Ukraine is now a country caught between two stools: on the one hand, it is striving for rapprochement with NATO and the EU; on the other hand, good relations with Russia have also always been of fundamental importance to the country. This is a picture book about a landscape and its country, which is going through dark times and is currently moving the whole world. Here we take a look at the beauty and the integrity of Ukraine.
The Ukrainian landscape is characterised by steppes, plateaus, lowlands and mountains. The Lemurian Lake in the south of Ukraine impresses with its pink colour, as it has a higher salt content than the Dead Sea. The mountain ranges of the Carpathians in the west of Ukraine captivate with their wonderful wild beauty. The Ukrainian steppe is part of the great Eurasian steppe, which runs through several countries of Eastern Europe and used to be the home of the Cossacks. The country is also criss-crossed by numerous river courses, with the Dnieper, Donets and Dniester rivers, which flow into the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov, being among the most significant.
Unparalleled scale, out-of-this-world colours and unique landscape shots from above make this book a tribute to the beauty of the Ukrainian landscape.

Albíni, Albinosi, Albinos
Rozsáhlý cyklus fotografií Michała Szalasta o albínech z tanzanského ostrova Ukerewe na Viktoriině jezeře značně koriguje naše obvyklé představy o tragickém životě lidí, kteří jsou kvůli odlišné barvě kůže svými černými spoluobčany nenáviděni, ostrakizování a někdy i zabíjeni. Není výsledkem letmé návštěvy evropského fotoreportéra v exotickém africkém prostředí, ale vznikl díky tomu, že se Michału Szalastovi podařilo během delšího pobytu v Tanzanii s mnohými albíny navázat bližší kontakty a získat si jejich důvěru. Mohl je proto fotografovat v jejich domovech, při práci, při dětských hrách i při návštěvách u lékaře. Stal se jakýmsi nepozorovaným pozorovatelem, před jehož objektivem fotografovaní lidé nepózovali, ale chovali se zcela přirozeně.

Divadlo a svoboda
Publikace Divadlo a svoboda – První dekáda nezávislosti českého divadla po roce 1989 představuje bouřlivou energii a pluralitu estetik, témat i aktivit českého nezávislého divadla prvního porevolučního desetiletí.

Walter Gropius, An Illustrated Biography
A stunning visual biography of the life of Walter Gropius, founder of the Bauhaus, and one of the world's most influential architects
This illustrated biography tells the story of Gropius's life, beginning with his shattering experiences in World War One, his turbulent marriage to the notorious Alma Mahler, the establishment of the Bauhaus, and the tragic death of their daughter Manon.
After Gropius's agonized decision to leave Nazi Germany in 1933, the book explores his life in exile in London and then his move to America in 1937, where he lived and worked until his death in 1969.
Features more than 375 illustrations including letters, telegrams, sketches, drawings, photographs, posters, brochures, and other ephemera. The authors present the life of Walter Gropius as not just a key figure of 20th-century architecture, but as an extraordinarily generous person - a connector, protector, and benefactor who improved the lives and careers of all those with whom he came into contact.
This is the first comprehensive illustrated biography of one of Modern architecture's most important figures.
Signals
Video within and beyond art: a survey of the medium’s political meanings
Video is everywhere. Since its debut as a consumer medium in the 1960s, video has shaped our opinions, our politics and our societies. On our phones and computer screens, walls and streets, it defines new spaces and experiences?spreading memes, lies, fervor, fact and fiction. In other words, video has transformed the world.
Featuring works from the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, this illuminating exhibition catalog?MoMA’s first major publication on video art in nearly 30 years?explores the ways in which artists have both championed and questioned video’s promise, some hoping to create new networks of communication, democratic engagement and public participation, others protesting commercial and state control over information, vision and truth itself. Lavishly illustrated essays by esteemed scholars and artists?including Ina Blom, Aria Dean, David Joselit, Pamela M. Lee, Glenn Ligon and Ravi Sundaram?highlight video’s widely varied formats, contexts and global reach. Signals is a manual for understanding the present, an era in which video has pervaded all aspects of life.
Artists include: Ant Farm, Gretchen Bender, Dara Birnbaum, Black Audio Film Collective, Tony Cokes, Harun Farocki and Andrei Ujica, Kit Galloway and Sherrie Rabinowitz, Dan Graham, Mona Hatoum, Every Ocean Hughes, Mako Idemitsu, Emily Jacir, Amar Kanwar, Victor Masayesva Jr., Marta Minujín, Carlos Motta, Fujiko Nakaya, New Red Order, Nam June Paik, Sondra Perry, Howardena Pindell, Walid Raad and Souheil Bachar, Raindance Corporation, Marlon Riggs, Martha Rosler, Julia Scher, Richard Serra and Carlota Fay Schoolman, Tiffany Sia, Frances Stark, Martine Syms, TVTV, Stan VanDerBeek, Videofreex, Ming Wong, Nil Yalter and Artur Zmijewski.
Freedom
Celebrating the dynamic and enduring collaboration between two icons of fashion and photography
In the 1970s, despite not yet knowing each other, Azzedine Alaia and Arthur Elgort were responding to a similar current within the cultural landscape. Alaia realized that fashion had changed; its locus had shifted from the salons to the streets. Elgort, then a young photographer for American Vogue, was in the process of establishing a new vision for photography that also moved outdoors, away from the studio; his “snapshots'' ushered in a more informal photographic style marked by its spontaneity. Both actively contributed to popularizing the mobile, assertive and independent woman within fashion.
This book commemorates the long collaboration between Ala?a and Elgort. Many of the images produced by the duo are considered classics, emblematic of the late 20th century. This volume reproduces approximately 200 of these dynamic, playful photographs, many of which feature Ala?a himself.
Arthur Elgort (born 1940) studied painting at Hunter College but quickly transitioned to photography. In his long career he has worked on many major advertising campaigns, including for Chanel, Valentino and Yves Saint Laurent, shot countless fashion spreads and published several books, including Personal Fashion (1983), The Swan Prince (1987), Models Manual (1993), Ballet Camera Crazy (2004), The Big Picture (2014), Jazz (2018) and I Love…. (2019).
Azzedine Alaia (1935–2017) was a Tunisian couturier and shoe designer. He produced his first ready-to-wear collection in 1980. When his clothes were first sold at Bergdorf Goodman in 1982, it was considered so momentous that the New York Times later listed it as among the landmark events that altered the city’s cultural landscape. Among his devotees were Grace Jones (who wore several of his creations in A View to a Kill), Tina Turner, Raquel Welch, Madonna, Janet Jackson and Naomi Campbell.
Making Waves
The ultimate inspirational guide for anyone dreaming of living on a boat of their own, featuring practical tips on everything from clever storage solutions to finding moorings and living off-grid.
Every boat has a story. For thousands of years, water vessels have provided livelihoods, catered to our spirit of adventure, and served as retreats from the pressures of modern life. It is little wonder that life on the water calls out to the creative and the curious?the mavericks, artists, architects, crafters, and designers who have made their homes on barges, shipping containers, houseboats, and more.
Featuring an international range of vessels, Making Waves celebrates those outliers seeking a different way of life; those exploring how livingon a boat offers the chance to achieve a more satisfying work-life balance while holding much of the paraphernalia and constrictions of the modern world at bay. With stunning photography and packed with practical advice and inspiration, the book reveals how anyone can transform a boat into a beautiful and unique place to live and work.
Each home featured offers its dwellers a retreat. Some glide through the extraordinary countryside, while others bob companionably in city wharfs. Their interiors reflect the residents’ imaginations, styles, families, and working lives, demonstrating how even seemingly challenging spaces can be transformed into unique and intriguing living quarters. The compelling personal stories behind each boat will encourage and inspire readers to consider a shift in their own lifestyles and embrace a life on the water.

Publikace vyšla u příležitosti výstavy v galerii Villa Pellé.
Zdena Šafka * 17. února 1953 Praha
Malířka, textilní a kostýmní výtvarnice, scénografka, pedagožka, restaurátorka
1971–1973 Školský ústav umělecké výroby Praha
1974–1981 Vysoká škola uměleckoprůmyslová Praha (Bohuslav Felcman) V letech 1983–1989 byla kostýmní výtvarnicí v Divadle F. X. Šaldy v Liberci. Pak začala podnikat jako oděvní návrhářka pod logem Zdena Šafka (1989–1998). Přišlo několik ocenění i zakázka na slavnostní uniformy pro olympijské hry v Lillehammeru (1994), ale podnik se nepodařilo udržet. Následovalo pětileté období, kdy autorka působila jako odborná asistentka na Katedře designu Technické univerzity v Liberci. Teprve potom šla na volnou nohu a věnovala se plně volné tvorbě. Vedle práce na tapiseriích začala také malovat. Od figurální tvorby postupně přecházela ke krajinám a přírodě. Když získala dům v Kryštofově Údolí, začala pracovat na sérii Nejkrásnější viadukt, která byla poprvé vystavena v místním Muzeu betlémů (2014). Pak přišlo další zjednodušování forem až téměř na plošný obrys. I přesto je zejména z obrazů „lesních interiérů“ cítit, že jsou inspirovány Jizerskými horami. V roce 2017 jí vyšla monografie. Působí ve Vraném nad Vltavou a Kryštofově Údolí.

A fabulous typographic exploration of the letter forms and typography of one of Europe’s leading design studios.
Letters from M/M (Paris) is a comprehensive study of the typefaces produced by Michaël Amzalag and Mathias Augustyniak since they founded their influential art and design practice, M/M (Paris).
