Bratislavský hrad na grafikách


Slovenské národné múzeum – Historické múzeum má vo svojich zbierkach vyše 1200 grafík rôznych tematických zobrazení a techník. Vynález kníhtlače, okrem zaznamenania písomného prejavu, umožnil aj značné rozšírenie obrazového materiálu. Vo veľkom sa začali vydávať rytiny oslavujúce panovníkov, mytologické výjavy a spoločenské udalosti alebo pohľady na mestá. V 16. storočí prišli do módy spracovania cestopisov s množstvom obrazovej prílohy zobrazujúcej krajiny a mestá, čo umožnilo spoznávať vzdialené končiny širšej populácii oveľa viac ako stáročia predtým. Jednou z takýchto veľkých publikácií, ktorá sa zaoberala aj územím Slovenska je Civitates orbis terrarum od G. Brauna a F. Hogenberga z roku 1572. Vďaka tejto knihe sa prvýkrát stretávame s vedutou Bratislavy, reálne zobrazujúcou budovy a vzhľad mesta. Od 17. storočia počet grafických zobrazení Bratislavy a hradu postupne rastie a vrchol dosahuje v 19. storočí, keď sa okrem tradičných celkových vedút mesta objavujú pohľady na jednotlivé časti mesta či významné budovy. Grafiky zobrazujúce Bratislavský hrad nám umožňujú sledovať premeny hradu od 16. storočia. Sú na nich zobrazené prestavby hradu uskutočnené Ferdinandom I., Pálfiovcami, Máriou Teréziou, ale aj stav hradného areálu po požiari v roku 1811. Od 19. storočia sa ruina Bratislavského hradu nezriedka predstavuje ako romantická spomienka na slávnu minulosť. Vďaka romanticky pôsobiacim prácam K. Frecha poznáme viaceré zákutia mesta, ako aj niektoré detaily hradných budov. S vynálezom fotografie však postupne upadá záujem o vydávanie rytín, napriek tomu sú hodnotným svedectvom doby a cieľom zberateľstva ako historický a umelecký dokument.

A Place Both Wonderful and Strange


For the first time, the complete history of David Lynch and Mark Frost's Twin Peaks, told through fascinatingly detailed reporting and exclusive interviews with the show's cast and creators. 'The high point of TV as a medium. David Lynch's Twin Peaks may never be bettered.' Guardian'Anybody making one-hour drama today who says he wasn't influenced by David Lynch is lying.' David ChaseFrom its initial broadcast in 1990 to the unexpected and hugely acclaimed return of the series some twenty-five years later, Twin Peaks garnered millions of fans across the world - though from the first episode, studio executives had predicted the inevitable failure of the show. In A Place Both Wonderful and Strange, film and TV critic Scott Meslow takes us behind the (red) curtain of Twin Peaks and into the unique and immersive world created by David Lynch and Mark Frost. Meslow has conducted dozens of original interviews with cast and crew - including Mark Frost, Sherilyn Fenn, James Marshall and Ray Wise - which shed new light on this extraordinary work that often raised as many questions as it answered. With David Lynch's passing in 2025, there may never be another return to the unforgettable town of Twin Peaks, yet A Place Both Wonderful and Strange draws readers back once again to the inimitable experience of the show and offers fascinating new insights and perspectives.

The Marilyn Monroe Century


The Marilyn Monroe Century is a lavishly produced tribute to Marilyn Monroe on her 100th birthday, documenting her transformation from Norma Jeane to Marilyn Monroe through never-before-seen photographs and diary entries by Bernard of Hollywood. This gift-ready coffee table book features a lenticular cover that brings an iconic moment to life, showing Monroe in motion. Published to commemorate Marilyn Monroe’s 100th birthday (June 1, 2026), this visual biography draws on never-before-seen photographs and personal diaries to reveal a more intimate portrait of the icon. Featuring rare photographs by Bruno Bernard, also known as Bernard of Hollywood, that have never been publicly released, the book traces the emotional and artistic evolution of Norma Jeane Mortenson into Marilyn Monroe. More than a collection of photographs, The Marilyn Monroe Century unfolds as a cinematic narrative. Bernard was the only photographer who witnessed and helped shape the full arc of Norma Jeane’s metamorphosis into Marilyn Monroe. Personal writings from Bernard, commentary from contemporary Hollywood voices, including Academy Award–winning director Sean Baker, and a foreword by actress, activist, and filmmaker Rose McGowan bring new emotional context to Marilyn’s journey, presenting the woman behind the icon in an unprecedented way. Authors Joshua John Miller, Bernard’s grandson, and Mark A. Fortin open Bernard’s archive for the first time to reveal the story of a lost friendship, of the appeal of fame and the drive to create the everlasting image of this American Dream. In 1999, The Museum of Modern Art declared Bernard's legendary photograph?Marilyn in White?capturing Monroe on the Twentieth Century Fox backlot as her white dress billowed above a subway grate?the symbol of the century. This single image defined 1950s Hollywood glamour and continues to echo across pop culture in songs, films, artwork, and more today. Appearing inset on this book's beautiful clothbound cover, a lenticular print re-creates this famous moment?the sudden lift of Monroe's skirt, which shifts as the book is tilted up and down. Bernard was not simply the creator of this iconic image; his role in Marilyn’s life was far more profound. A bond forged early in her career sparked an intimate dialogue between a young woman discovering herself and the photographer who recognized her potential long before the world did. His photographs and diary entries reveal a Marilyn rarely seen: playful, thoughtful, ambitious, and fully aware of the persona she was creating for herself. Joshua John Miller and Mark A. Fortin tell the family story behind the myth of Marilyn, through Bernard’s personal diaries and previously unpublished correspondence, as well as memories and personal perspectives. They chronicle the complex friendship between two outsiders who found solace in one another.

John Hughes


There are very few directors for whom you can say “that’s his or her brand of film”, but the legendary John Hughes is undoubtedly one of them. He presented a different perspective on growing up, showing parents to be much more human than movies had previously shown them to be. His ability to capture the experiences and emotions of young people, and to create relatable and memorable characters, has made his films enduring classics that continue to resonate with audiences young and old. The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink and Ferris Buhler’s Day Off are beloved works that defined a generation on the movie screen. Additionally, Hughes’s work as a screenwriter (often completing scripts over a single weekend) contributed vastly to the success of many films, some of which he is not sufficiently credited for. As the 1980s ended, Hughes demonstrated his versatility as a filmmaker by making comedies targeting adult audiences over teens—films that have found their place in the hearts of many. This book celebrates the movies of John Hughes and the good times they have brought us, while examining the man behind the legacy.

In-Between: What Future Awaits with Generative AI?


Advancements in generative AI are transforming the way we conceptualize consciousness. Using the Japan Pavilion exhibition at the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale as a starting point, this publication offers a thought-provoking dialogue between architecture, artificial intelligence and humanity. Imagining a near-future when AI technology has further advanced, the Japan Pavilion stages a dialogue between the building’s constituent elements – the Hole, Wall Columns, Outer Walls, Brick Terrace, Pensilina, Tilted Loop Path and Yew Tree – and humans, as equals. Their conversation revolves around the future of the pavilion and a search for common ground. Behind-the-scenes reflections, critical essays and speculative writings expand on the themes of the exhibition and offer insights into a highly relevant topic.

Totems and Other Essays


Totems and Other Essays brings together 14 texts by architect, historian, and critic Irénée Scalbert. Written between 1998 and 2025, they reflect nearly three decades of critical engagement with architecture and its cultural contexts. Ranging in length and register-from concise meditations to extended analytical essays-the collection captures the evolution of Scalbert's thinking as a critic, teacher, and participant in architectural discourse. Organised thematically into sections on buildings, cities, lectures, and theory, Totems and Other Essays traces a loosely autobiographical arc. Earlier pieces echo Scalbert's formative years in London during a period of architectural ferment marked by the work of James Stirling, Norman Foster, and Richard Rogers, as well as his close association with a generation of contemporaries including Tony Fretton, Adam Caruso and Peter St John, and Tom Emerson and Stephanie Macdonald (6a architects). Later texts expand outward, both geographically and conceptually, as Scalbert brings a speculative and at times personal lens to questions of urbanism, nature, and meaning in contemporary architecture. The book culminates in Lives of a Critic, a postscript that offers candid thoughts on the vocation of architectural criticism in the 21st century.

Love Magic Power Danger Bliss


Art is my life and my life is art . . . The story of the twentieth-century avant-garde is a story of resistance, of the outsider, of strangeness, of individual freedom, of rejecting the ordinary and overcoming marginalisation through self-invention. It is also a story that can be told through the prism of one of its most renowned figureheads: Yoko Ono. From her early life escaping aristocratic Japanese society and the horrors of World War II to adventurous and productive exile in New York, Ono's work built upon the histories of Dada, surrealism, Zen Buddhism, and experimental music. A significant influence on the elusive Fluxus artistic network, she was connected to all its major personalities. Pursuing dreams of revolutionary liberation and aiming to recreate shattered post-war reality through performance, art and text, she established a legacy - despite her tumultuous personal life - as one of the most visionary artists and activists of her generation. Marking the intersection of biography, cultural history and artistic meditation, Love Magic Power Danger Bliss explores the deep history and vitality of the 20th century avant-garde movement and the inspiring, provocative figure who became its most celebrated, most misunderstood icon.

Umění aktivismu


Výstava spolu s publikací zkoumá vývoj angažovaného a protestního umění v českých zemích s důrazem na období od globální finanční krize roku 2008. Domácí vývoj klade do širšího kontextu mezinárodních hnutí, jako jsou Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, Me Too, Fridays for Future, Extinction Rebellion a další. Vedle českých kolektivních iniciativ se projekt zaměřuje i na zahraniční umělecké skupiny, jejichž aktivity ovlivnily politické události a staly se inspirací pro domácí umělce. Pozornost je věnována i umění ve veřejném prostoru, sociálním intervencím a participativním strategiím, které podporují občanské iniciativy a posilují společenskou odolnost. Projekt zkoumá vztahy mezi jednotlivcem a globální i lokální komunitou, analyzuje solidaritu, odpovědnost a umělecké prostředky jako formu aktivního angažmá. Skupina reflektuje propojení umění a sociální spravedlnosti, lidských práv a ekologických otázek – upozorňuje na neoddělitelný charakter těchto témat v době antropocénu. Publikace pracuje s dokumentačními i uměleckými formami a sleduje pojem „performativní demokracie“, jak ho popisuje teoretik Peter Weibel. Zároveň se celý projekt ptá na roli protestního umění v politickém rámci: kde leží hranice jeho společenské přijatelnosti, odmítání a případného postihu? Texty: CZ, SK, ENG: Mgr. Zuzana Štefková, Adéla Průchová Hrůzová, Lenka Kukurová, Alice Koubová, Oliver Elser, Jakub Adamec, Tamara Moyzes, Megan Hoetger, Barbara Holub, Nicola Baird, Darina Alster Anotace AJ: The exhibition and the accompanying publication explore the development of engaged and protest art in the Czech Lands, with an emphasis on the period since the 2008 global financial crisis. Domestic developments are placed in the broader context of international movements such as Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, Me Too, Fridays for Future, Extinction Rebellion and others. In addition to Czech collective initiatives, the project also focuses on international art groups whose activities have influenced political events and inspired domestic artists. Attention is also paid to art in public spaces, social interventions and participatory strategies that support civic initiatives and strengthen social resilience. The project explores the relationships between individuals and both global and local communities, analysing solidarity, responsibility and artistic means as forms of active engagement. The group reflects on the interconnectedness of art, social justice, human rights and environmental issues, highlighting the inseparable nature of these topics in the Anthropocene era. The publication utilises documentary and artistic forms and explores the concept of ""performative democracy,"" as described by theorist Peter Weibel. At the same time, the entire project raises questions about the role of protest art in the political sphere: what are the boundaries of its social acceptability, rejection and possible punishment?

Teaching Urbanism


Conceived as a compendium and reference for students, teachers, researchers, and practitioners of architecture and urbanism, this book looks into current topics in urban design and development: What is the role of architecture in urban transformation? How can architectural practice respond to challenges such as climate change, migration, social segregation, or technology and mobility? And above all, how to teach urbanism and urban design in a timely way and make it relevant for research? As a written dialogue between participants of the 2023 Lucerne Talks conference, the texts offer a shared understanding of applying different, multidisciplinary approaches, attitudes, and methods in tackling these challenges. Teaching Urbanism is also a call for taking responsibility and position in political, social, and cultural matters and with regard to planning policies. Living spaces and buildings must be designed collectively rather than individually. The essays and brief texts expand the discussions at the 2023 Lucerne Talks on how to achieve this and what architecture can contribute to these complex processes.
