Petr Zhoř Fotografie No.


Fotografická monografie Petra Zhoře přináší průřez jeho celoživotním dílem od šedesátých let po současnost. Najdete v ní tedy vše podstatné z autorova originálního rukopisu, pro který jsou typické zneklidňující světelné linie, nezúčastněné tváře figurín, chladné odlesky, včetně surrealistické technizující poetiky zdůrazněné tónováním černobílé fotografie. Zhoř má mimořádný pozorovací talent a občas můžete mít pocit, že vidí i to, co se odehrává hluboko pod povrchem – třeba ve vašem nitru. Nevšedně graficky zpracovanou knihu doprovází erudovaný text PhDr. Michala Janaty.

Animator´s Survival Kit


Animation is one of the hottest and most creative areas of film-making today . During his more than 40 years in the business, Richard Williams has been one of the true innovators, and serves as the link between the golden age of animation by hand and the new computer animation successes.

A Cool Breeze


Hlavním tématem katalogu výstavy Galerie Rudolfinum je nové pojetí klasického sochařského námětu figury. Možnosti prostorového zobrazování lidské postavy jsou přibližovány v neobvyklých postupech a často netradičními materiály. Sedmnáct umělců si klade otázky, zda lze ještě dnes používat lidské tělo jako prostředek vyjádření a zda lze jeho pomocí formulovat i nadále závažná sdělení. Jak se jeví předchozí historie sochařství dnešním tvůrcům i divákům? Je na co navazovat? Výzva, kterou přináší tradice figurálního zpracování, vede nyní k nejprogresivnějším příkladům současného sochařství. Výsledkem je konfrontace klasických estetických hodnot se současným způsobem reprezentace identity a sociálních pozic uměleckého světa, kulturních hodnot a symbolik. Katalog obsahuje texty Petra Nedomy, kurátora výstavy, a krátká vyjádření samotných umělců. To vše je doplněno rozsáhlým souborem reprodukcí vystavených děl a také jedinečných snímků samotné instalace výstavy. Vystavující umělci: ELMGREEN & DRAGSET, RON MUECK, ATHAR JABER, YINKA SHONIBARE, STELLA HAMBERG, PALOMA VARGA WEISZ, STEPHAN BALKENHOL, ISA GENZKEN, MELIK OHANIAN, KRIŠTOF KINTERA, ROGER HIORNS, GEORG HEROLD, CHRISTIAN HOLSTAD, ANTONY GORMLEY, THOMAS HOUSEAGO, THOMAS SCHÜTTE

Mailer, MoonFire, 50yrs


On July 20, 1969, science fiction became reality. Revisit the momentous moon landing in the 50thanniversary editionof Norman Mailer’s classic book on the Apollo 11 mission. This volume includes hundreds of imagessourced from the NASA vaults, magazine archives, and private collections, documenting the lead up to, aftermath, and breathtaking moments of that giant leap for mankind. It has been called the single most historic event of the 20th century: On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collinsmet John F. Kennedy’s call for a manned Moon landing by the end of the 1960s. A decade of tests and training, a staff of 400,000 engineers and scientists, a budget of billions, and the most powerful rocket ever launched all combined in an unprecedented event watched by millions the world over. And no one captured the men, the mood, and the machinery like Norman Mailer. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century, Norman Mailerwas hired byLIFEmagazine in 1969 to cover the Moon shot. He enhanced his reportage in the brilliantly crafted book, Of a Fire on the Moon, which is excerpted here. Equally adept at examiningthe science of space travel and the psychology of the people involved—from Saturn V rocket engineer Wernher von Braun to the crucial NASA support staff to the three astronauts—Mailer provides provocative and trenchant insights into this epoch-making event. Illustrating this volume are hundreds of photographsand maps from the NASA vaults, magazine archives, and private collections. These images document the development of the agency and the mission, life inside the command module and on the Moon’s surface, and the world’s jubilant reaction to the landing. This 50-year anniversary editionincludes captions by leading Apollo 11 expertsthat explain the history and science behind the images, citing the mission log, publications of the day, and postflight astronaut interviews; while an evocative introduction by Colum McCanncelebrates Mailer’s incomparable skill at transforming “the science of space... the weight of history... the breadth of mythology” into prose. The author Norman Mailer(1923–2007) was one of the 20th century’s greatest and most influential writers, as well as one of America’s most renowned and controversial literary figures. The best-selling author of a dozen novels and 20 works of nonfiction, he also wrote stage plays, screenplays, television miniseries, hundreds of essays, two books of poetry, and a collection of short stories. A two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, he lived in Brooklyn, New York, and Provincetown, Massachusetts. The contributing author Colum McCannis the author of eight books, including Let the Great World Spin. He has written for The New York Times, Atlantic Monthly, GQ, The Times(London), The Irish Times, and La República.

Garden City


How far can we expand the concept of `urban nature'? How would it make us feel? And how is it going to transform our cities - and, eventually, ourselves? Garden City captures the growing global movement among contemporary architects for biodesigning buildings less as skin and bodies - structure and facade - and more as living entities, capable of being ecologically autonomous, horticulturally productive and ultimately pleasing to our day-to-day lifestyles. It presents more than 100 (mostly completed) projects, a life-affirming range of buildings and design ideas that can be applied to new buildings and those needing rehabilitation. From office buildings that incorporate urban farms and exchange the CO2 produced by humans for food and oxygen produced by plants, to lightweight systems for growing gardens on vertical surfaces; from `tree houses' the size of city blocks to civic buildings that are `plugged into' existing water-management systems - there are rich and often unexpected ideas for every inquiring designer. The future of our urban architecture is biologically alert, naturally self-sustaining and alive. Garden City is this future's first manifesto.

Ve jménu moudrosti


Barokní knihovny patří k nejkrásnějším a také nejzajímavějším interiérům, které se z období baroka zachovaly. Jejich umělecká výzdoba vyniká především nástěnnými malbami, jejichž ikonografie je mnohdy zcela jedinečná. Náměty fresek obvykle navrhovali představení klášterů či vzdělaní členové klášterní komunity a jejich tematika byla vždy spojena s oslavou Boží moudrosti. Tento základní námětový okruh byl různě variován a v mnoha případech zahrnoval unikátní motivy, jejichž interpretace je dnes velmi obtížná. Porozumět těmto výjimečným malbám umožňuje studium dobové ikonologie a kulturního kontextu, v němž tyto malby vznikaly. Kniha je první monografií věnovanou umělecké výzdobě barokních klášterních knihoven v 18. století na Moravě. Je zaměřena zejména na rekonstrukci ikonografických programů nástěnných maleb v knihovnách, ale zabývá se také formálně-stylovou stránkou fresek a jejich autorstvím. Všímá si i další umělecké výzdoby knihovních sálů, zejména sochařské, a je-li to možné, zapojuje výzdobu knihoven do ikonologické koncepce daných objektů.

Edvard Munch: love and angst


Edvard Munch (1863-1944) is best known today as a painter, but his reputation was in fact established through his prints, which were central to his creative process. His printmaking was experimental and innovative, and he continually revisited the subjects of his paintings in striking prints, in which he evoked a wide range of emotion and mood through the use of varied techniques. Munch's early life in the industrial town of Kristiania (renamed Oslo in 1925) was marked by sickness and poverty. His first works centred on the expression of deep emotional experiences, specifically the deaths of his mother and teenage sister when he was growing up, as well as passionate yet unhappy love affairs of which his deeply religious father disapproved. Encouraged by his encounters with a Bohemian society of artists, writers and poets, he developed a visual landscape that was a radical deviation from the slick society portraits and grand Scandinavian landscapes then so much in vogue. His efforts attracted considerable attention and much criticism, and he practised with little financial success as a painter for ten years before he started to gain his reputation as a profoundly innovative printmaker. Written by a team of acknowledged experts, and with an interview by writer Karl Ove Knausgaard, this book will shed new light on the production of some of Munch's most remarkable works.

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.
