Charles bridge: Legends and stories
Having spanned both banks of the Vltava River since 1357, Charles Bridge has become an inseparable part of Prague’s breathtaking panorama. Its foundation stone was laid by Emperor Charles IV himself, and despite facing numerous challenges over the centuries, the bridge still stands today. Over time, it has been adorned with numerous sculptures. With the exception of the bronze statue of St. John of Nepomuk, all 29 remaining statues and sculptural groups of significant saints are made of stone. Thanks to them, Prague’s oldest surviving stone bridge is a true masterpiece, unparalleled anywhere in the world – a must-see sight for any visitor to the city.
David Hockney. 220 for 2020
A Year in Normandy with David Hockney
The course of the seasons in an artist’s book of iPad paintings
From a small, picturesque farmhouse in the rich fields and meadows of Normandy, David Hockney followed the changing seasons across 2020 and into the new year. He used his iPad to spontaneously depict impressions of the landscape surrounding him, catching the first spring blossoms, the smell of summer, the saturated colors of autumn, and the stark shapes of dark branches in winter time. The 220 (plus four bonus) iPad paintings in this book are printed with six colors to match the richness of the artist’s vision. A short introduction by Hockney reveals how this planned project became a lifeline during the COVID lockdown, from which he spread his message of hope: “Remember they can’t cancel the spring.”
Personal Best
Elliott Erwitt was one of the greatest of his profession. His photographs have shaped the visual history of the 20th century and continue to have an impact in the 21st century. Although Erwitt's work spans several decades and continents as well as numerous themes, it is always instantly recognisable.
His spontaneous and original visions speak of true artistry without ever appearing artificial. For this collection, Erwitt himself selected the photographs that he considers to be his best. Anyone leafing through this carefully edited retrospective will be filled with a nostalgic mood, a sense of wonder - and an enduring feeling for the richness of life.

Ralph Gibson. Photographs 1960–2024
Travelling widely, Ralph Gibson works primarily in inspired series, associated image reveries in both monochrome and colour, whose titles -The Somnambulist, Déja-Vu, Days at Sea, and Chiaroscuro-underline the particular poetic sensibility that informs his work. Starting out in 1960 with Dorothea Lange, he made his way to New York in 1967 and was soon considered in the same light as the likes of Larry Clark and Diane Arbus. The photographs and series can of course speak for themselves. But for Gibson there is a philosophy at play behind the image, and in the included short texts he proposes his thesis. Nudes, portraits, still lives, narratives-loyal to his Leica, Gibson ranges between genres and creates new categories of vision. He gets closer to things and meditates on them in a way that only the silence of the image can attempt.Produced in close collaboration with the artist, this book offers the fruit of more than six decades of image-making. From Gibson’s first photographs in San Francisco, Hollywood, and New York in the 1960s right up to the present day, this is the most comprehensive collection of this highly acclaimed photographer.
Edward S. Curtis. The North American Indian. The Complete Portfolios
Edward Sheriff Curtis (1868-1952) dedicated his entire life to a project all his own, to use a camera to preserve the cultural heritage of the indigenous peoples of North America. For three decades, he traveled in every region of the continent, through every kind of terrain and weather, via land or water, in the 50°C heat of the Mojave Desert or the -20°C chill of the Arctic; moving on foot, by horse, wagon, donkey, boat or train, or later by automobile. More than 40,000 photos were produced during those years.
During his lifetime, the finest of these photographs entitled The North American Indian, were presented in twenty elaborate, large-scale portfolios with which Curtis raised a monument to commemorate the disappearing culture of North America's indigenous peoples and to bring it fully back to life. In addition, the book holds a selection of photographs from the text volumes.
Without Edward S. Curtis we would hardly know a thing about the rites of the Hopi in America's southwest, nor be able to picture the Qagyuhl winter dancers, or have any idea of the ceremonies on Nunivak Island. The basic humanistic message that shines from his pictures is highly relevant, namely peaceful coexistence in which you can overcome hatred and prejudice if you are always willing, on meeting a stranger, to seek some idea in common.
David Hockney. My Window
'For me, it's really the joy of looking out into the world and getting this positive energy... It's opening up our vision, and how we look'—David HockneyWhen David Hockney discovered the iPhone as an artistic medium, it opened up entirely new possibilities for his art. He made his first digital paintings in spring 2009, describing the morning landscape in broad lines and dazzling colors directly on a display that offered subtle hues as unmixed expressions of pure light. Then in 2010, Hockney started working with an iPad, and the larger screen expanded his artistic repertoire and enabled an even more complex interplay of color, light, and line. Each image in this book captures a fleeting moment seen through a window in Hockney’s Yorkshire home: from vibrant sunrise and lilac morning sky to peaceful night-time impressions or the sudden arrival of spring. Fascinating details reveal drops on window panes, distant lights in the night, reflections on vases or an abundance of varied window-sill vegetation. In 120 paintings made between 2009 and 2012, selected and arranged by the artist himself, we experience the passage of time through the eyes of David Hockney.
This artist’s book, which first appeared in an exclusive signed edition in 2020, now returns in a wallet-friendly pocket edition. So now is the perfect occasion to heed the advice of the Times critic regarding this book: “If you would like to be given a bouquet by David Hockney, here is your chance.”

Climate Action in the Art World
Annabel Keenan's timely and urgent book reviews the work that has been undertaken to date to create a more sustainable art world and proposes the next steps in system-wide change. It identifies the main sustainability issues for the art industry, arguing that artists and art activists have led the way in creating awareness of climate change, and evaluates progress to date on climate-action commitments by the various sectors of the art world, offering examples of best practice.
Uncompromising in its messages, Climate Action in the Art World is essential reading for all art professionals, from artists to curators to art handlers, as well as for anyone seeking an accessible entry-point to a topic which is unfortunately only getting (literally) hotter.
Art for All - Impressionists
Discover the lives and work of five iconic Impressionist artists
This inspiring collection covers the work, the lives, and the enduring impact of five key Impressionists, in one volume that’s a primer and a celebration of probably the most popular artistic genre of all time. Each featured artist broke boundaries in different ways, astounding late 19th-century society with their boldness of vision and technique.
Edgar Degas explored movement and the human form with masterly style and innovative compositions, most famously of dancers, racehorses, and busy streetscapes. Claude Monet was a maestro of light and atmosphere, capturing the fleeting moment with his iconic water lilies and series paintings. Pierre-Auguste Renoir celebrated beauty and sensuality, bringing vibrancy to everyday scenes with lush brushwork and a radiant palette. Paul Gauguin sought inspiration in the exotic, using bold colors and symbolism, often to unsettling effect. Finally, Vincent van Gogh’s highly emotive use of color and vigorous brushstrokes conveyed his private turmoil and did much to lay the groundwork for Expressionism.
Together, these five creative masters redefined what art dared to achieve, emphasizing personal expression alongside their exploration of light, color, and perspective. Their output marked a pivotal shift to modern artistic freedoms and expectations.
This collection looks beyond their most famous works and includes an extensive text on each artist’s oeuvre, alongside a detailed biography and more than 400 high-quality color illustrations.
Szép magyar ének
Ez a daloskönyv azért született, hogy elvigye a családokba, baráti társaságokba, közösségekbe az éneklés csodálatos örömét. A válogatás szép magyar énekeinkből: gyermekdalokból, népdalainkból, népies és zeneszerzői dalokból, görög- és római katolikus, illetve protestáns egyházi énekekből ölel fel egy csokorra valót.
Szándékom a legkülönfélébb alkalmakkor jól használható, gyakorlatias, széles forrásból merítő, igényes és színes énekeskönyv összeállítása volt. A dalszövegek mellett jól énekelhető hangnemben írott kottákat találunk, az énekeket hiteles, megbízható adatok és érdekes magyarázatok egészítik ki. A könyv a dalok címét és a magyarázatokat angolul is tartalmazza.
Hiszem, hogy gazdag nemzeti zenekincsünk e darabkája minden hazánkfia számára éppúgy tárháza lehet a hasznos ismereteknek, mint forrása erőnek, jókedvnek, örömnek és szeretetnek. Kívánom, hogy minél többen megtapasztalják!" /Béres József/
Remekművek titkos élete
"... Megszakadt kapcsolatok, betiltott törekvések, elcsatolt területek, mind- mind szolgáltathattak okot arra, hogy kultúránk neves alkotói feledésbe merüljenek, vagy épp látóterünk peremére sodródjanak. Tárgyi emlékeink pedig mindeközben elpusztultak, átalakultak, esetleg valami oknál fogva elvesztek. Ez a tanulmánykötet a fenti kulturális és történelmi folyamatokat kívánja bemutatni, mégpedig oly esettanulmányokon keresztül, melyek főszereplői- legyenek azok akár szakszerűtlenül restaurált alkotások, hollywood-i filmkellékek, külföldön "felejtett" kiállítási tárgyak, vagy épp egy országhatáron kívül "rekedt" festőkolónia kollektív emlékei- valamilyen oknál fogva kiszakadtak hazánk kulturális szövetéből az elmúlt kétszáz év alatt."
Budapest / Hollywood
"Nem elég, ha magyar vagy, tehetségesnek is kell lenned!" - hirdette a legenda szerint Zukor Adolf, a Paramount Pictures magyar alapítójának igazgatói ajtaja. Az anekdoták szerint azonban a hozzá munkáért folyamodó megannyi honfitársának halkan mindig hozzátette: "...de azért segít egy kicsit."
A Budapest/Hollywood kötet hatvan kiemelkedő magyar alkotó életútján és munkásságán keresztül mutatja be, miként járult hozzá a magyar szellem és tehetség az álomgyár felemelkedéséhez. Magyar földről indultak, Hollywoodban váltak világhírűvé. Örökségük ma is bizonyítéka annak, hogy a magyar tehetség a világ filmművészetének megkerülhetetlen része. A szerzők, Dr. Takó Sándor és Dr. Kollarik Tamás filmes szakemberek és egyetemi oktatók, a Magyarok Hollywoodban könyvsorozat megálmodói. Több mint egy évtizede kutatják a magyar filmes örökséget, jelen munkájuk pedig méltó főhajtás mindazok előtt, akik magyar gyökereiket megőrizve írták be nevüket a filmtörténelem aranylapjaira.
Vynálezci, piráti, epigoni
Kde se vzala fotografie na papíru? Jak vypadaly první světelné obrazy na papírové podložce a kdo byli jejich tvůrci? Ve kterých oblastech se uplatnila a čím fotografie na papíru zaujala své první sběratele? Jaké byly její přednosti oproti daguerrotypii a ostatním konkurenčním metodám a v čem naopak zaostávala? Nejen na tyto otázky hledá a nabízí odpovědi kniha Vynálezci, piráti, epigoni, jež sleduje, jak se fotografie na papíru během čtyřicátých a padesátých let 19. století šířila a etablovala v Čechách a na Moravě, a to v těsné vazbě na některé další lokality, především Vídeň coby nejbližší fotografický uzel.
Kniha vychází dvojjazyčně – v češtině a angličtině – a je bohatě ilustrována obrazovým materiálem z domácích i zahraničních sbírek.
The Camera at War
It is said that the first casualty of war is truth. But in the arena of war photography, the truth is never simple. Drawing on an incredible range of imagery from the Imperial War Museum's vast collection and other major archives around the globe, expert curator Hilary Roberts presents a new perspective on the role of image manipulation in this field over the past 170 years,exploring the consequences for our understanding of historic and contemporary conflicts.
From the staged scenes and hand-coloured Daguerreotypes of the Crimean War at the very beginning of conflict photography to the AI-generated protest and propaganda imagery of today, Roberts explores the myriad ways in which layers of meaning can be added, erased or changed completely. As The Camera at War so powerfully reveals, sometimes this has been done in order to present a closer approximation of the truth, and sometimes for the causes of national morale, subterfuge and control of the winning narrative.
