Myslet média
Kniha Myslet média, jíž se Herzogenrath poprvé představuje českému publiku, je výborem z kratších textů (kapitol a článků), upravených pro české vydání a opatřených originálním doslovem Tomáše Dvořáka a Martina Charváta. Východiskem většiny textů je filozofie Gillese Deleuze a současná německá filozofie médií, studie jsou však zároveň detailními analýzami konkrétních uměleckých děl, postupů a žánrů. Filmový oddíl se věnuje mj. filmům Billa Morrisona, Davida Lynche, žánru found footage, vztahům mezi filmem a filozofií nebo audiovizuální eseji, oddíl zvukový pak elektronické hudbě a jejím politickým a environmentálním aspektům či problematice rytmu. Všechny vybrané studie prostupují dvě základní témata, jež jsou samostatně pojednána v závěrečných kapitolách antologie: otázky materiality médií a praktické estetiky. Kniha navrhuje nové způsoby uvažování o médiích a umění, které nejsou v tradičním smyslu filozofické či vědecké, nýbrž blíží se perspektivě uměleckého výzkumu: myšlení o médiích, filmu, či zvuku, které je současně myšlením médii, filmem či zvukem.
Goth: A History
'Goth can plausibly claim to be the near-definitive word on the subject' - Guardian
Goth is an entertaining and evocative personal history of Goth music and culture, told by a true insider. Lol Tolhurst explores the godfathers of goth who established the genre's roots - THE CURE, which he co-founded with Robert Smith, contemporaries SIOUXSIE AND THE BANSHEES, BAUHAUS, JOY DIVISION - plus many more great bands that offered a place of refuge for the misfits of the 80s and ever since.
Lol offers a fascinating deep dive into the movers and shakers of goth, imbued with his personal memories as well as those of fellow musicians, magicians and artists who make goth such an inevitable and enduring movement. Along the way he examines acts such as DEPECHE MODE and COCTEAU TWINS who helped the darkness expand. Finally, Tolhurst examines the legacy of goth music, and shows how its influence can still be seen to this day across music, film, TV, visual arts and social media.
As thoughtful and thorough as it is utterly bewitching, Goth is a timeless testament to why Goth matters - and why it always will.
Claude Monet
Claude Monet’s extensive work is revealed in numerous images. He was a painter who like no other moved perception to the center of his artistic activities. Nature became his own studio. This resulted in fascinating landscapes of different times and seasons in the mirror of wind and weather.
Rubens
This illustrated book provides an insight into all areas of creativity and all types of images that Peter Paul Rubens cultivated. In addition to his famous baroque monumental paintings, his sensitive drawings as well as his impressive portraits are described.
Jan Vermeer
Jan Vermeer was a Dutch artist who created paintings that are among the most beloved and revered images in the history of art.
Vermeer began his career in the early 1650s by painting large-scale biblical and mythological scenes, but most of his later paintings—the ones for which he is most famous—depict scenes of daily life in interior settings. These works are remarkable for their purity of light and form, qualities that convey a serene, timeless sense of dignity. Vermeer also painted cityscapes and allegorical scenes.
Scotland
The name of Scotland seems to originate from the latin word Scoti, which was the word used by the Romans to describe some of the Gaelic peoples found in the British Isles around 1600 years ago. The country extends northwards from the rolling hills of its Borders region in the south, where it meets England, through the more heavily populated urban areas found in the Central Lowlands strip, then out into the lonely towering peaks and sweeping glens of the Highlands. Beyond these, moving offshore, are the wild and windswept archipelagos of the Hebrides, Orkneys and Shetlands. It is a land of history, myths and legends, telling of fierce clan rivalries and struggles against oppression. Some of these historical figures have tales which still resonate across the globe, including William Wallace, Mary Queen of Scots and Robert the Bruce, with their stories often being bound together with those of the many spectacular castles to be found throughout the land. The country is also reflected in the works of its great poets and writers, such as Robert Burns and R.L. Stevenson. With 16,500 km (10,250 mi) of coastline, Scotland has always been closely associated with the sea and all its dangers, as may be seen from many dozens of lighthouses which dot its shores. Scotland, however was also at the forefront of the Industrial Revolution, a land whose scientific, philosophical and technological innovation changed the world. There is, indeed, so much more to Scotland than just tartan and kilts.
Gothic (1200 - 1500)
Painting from 1200 to 1500 is a mirror of its time, marked by deep religiousness as well as progressive tendencies, by economic prosperity as well as devastating wars and epidemics. A religious perspective is joined by secular themes and efforts to achieve a realistic way of representation. These developments take place in book illumination, which is accessible to rather few people, as well as in the public medium of frescoes and, since 1300, also in panel paintings. With nearly 500 works, Gothic 1200-1500 gives an overview of the visual art of the time.
Japan
Geishas and samurais, karate and bonsai -no country in Asia has had a comparable influence on Western culture and global developments as Japan. It is a country full of beauty, exoticism - and contrasts. Dazzling mega-metropolises like Tokyo, Osaka or Yokohama on the one hand, rugged volcanoes, glittering mountain lakes and remote temples on the other. There is no question that Japan exerts a strong fascination on most people. This is also due to the people, for example those bustling suit and costume wearers who squeeze through the subways of the cities early in the morning and in the evening by the millions and who are willing to give up a large part of their annual vacation for the good of the company. Or even the ordinary employees, such as those gardeners in the many public gardens and parks who spend hours crouching with stoic calm, using small scissors to cut a tree into the right shape, leaf by leaf, branch by branch. For the Japanese love perfection, their goal is to bring structure to chaos. This brings disadvantages. A latent austerity pervades society, for whom harmony and politeness are paramount and where every word is weighed in the balance so as not to snub the other person. But anyone who flouts the many unwritten rules will quickly feel the authority of society. "You hit a nail that sticks out," says a well-known Japanese proverb. Harmony here also stands for conformity, and any deviation from the norm runs the risk of disrupting it. Foreigners are allowed, even expected, to make various missteps. Because - this is also a consensus in society - only a Japanese person can really understand the Japanese.
Vintage Industrial Interiors
Old factory spaces are often characterized by their spaciousness, high ceilings, large windows, and special finishes. This book sets out to convey the atmosphere of the vintage industrial style and the history and development of industrial furniture design.
James Tissot
Jacques Joseph or James Tissot, lived a splendid life between Paris and London during the Belle Epoque. He cannot be assigned to either the English or the French tradition. The first name James - which he adopted in 1859 - and his years in London (1871-1882) made him an artist between both worlds. The difficulty of categorizing Tissot is also reflected in his work. A continuity between his glamorous social portraits and the biblical illustrations - between the dandy and the businessman, the "ingenious merchant", as the painter John Singer Sargent called him - is difficult to establish.
Gustave Courbet
Best known as an innovator in Realism, Courbet was a painter of figurative compositions, landscapes and seascapes. He also worked with social issues, and addressed peasantry and the grave working conditions of the poor. His work belonged neither to the predominant Romantic nor Neoclassical schools. Courbet believed the Realist artist's mission was the pursuit of truth.
Spanish Painting 2 (1665-1920)
From the lavish abundance of the late Baroque court and epoch-making painters like Bartolomé Esteban Murillo and Francisco de Goya, to the appearance of Romanticism and Classicism in the age of the art academies, and the innovative and sometimes scandalous achievements of modernism, Spanish painting offers an extraordinary panorama of outstanding artists, styles, and themes. With around 450 illustrations, Spanish Painting (1665–1920) illuminates the developments from the end of the Golden Age in the 17th century to the early 20th century, and thus serves as a companion to the equally opulent volume Spanish Painting 1200–1665 from Romanesque to the Baroque.
Opravdový středověk?
Umění & ideologie v 19. století.
Katedrála sv. Víta v Praze, Notre-Dame v Paříži, Votivní kostel ve Vídni či jiný majestátní chrám některé z evropských metropolí jsou pro většinu z nás ztělesněním opravdového středověku. Málokdo ví, že se ve skutečnosti často jedná o architekturu z 19. století nebo o budovy v tomto období zásadně přestavěné. Vzhled těchto památek je, spíše než svědectvím o předmoderní minulosti, výsledkem romantických idealizací, nacionalistických sporů a ekonomických zájmů 19. století.
Tato knížka ukazuje, že náš „opravdový středověk“ má s tím původním jen málo společného, zato nám však říká mnohé o evropské kultuře posledních dvou staletí.

Spanish Painting 1 (1200-1665)
From the medieval works of Romanesque and Gothic art to the golden age of the Baroque, from the famous Beatus Apocalypses to Diego Velázquez and Francisco de Zurbarán, Spanish painting offers a unique abundance of artistic themes and styles. Intimately connected with the needs and power displays of the Habsburg dynasty and the Church, Spanish art developed an idiom as varied as it was distinctive. Spanish Painting 1200–1665 covers over 500 works.
Arcimboldo
Amusement, astonishment, irritation, even indignation: the composite heads of Giuseppe Arcimboldo (1526/7-1593) may prompt a whole range of emotions, but no one can remain indifferent to them. Combining the impact of surprise with the aesthetics of the bizarre, his art - reflecting the religious and political upheavals that shook Europe in the second half of the sixteenth century - invites ambivalent responses. For Arcimboldo, aesthetics took precedence over reality, and invenzione was more important than being true to life. A master in the art of sensory deception and an artist of virtuoso technical and conceptual skills, he created an oeuvre whose fascination is as much visual as intellectual.
Performance Now
The definitive illustrated overview of contemporary performance art.
Performance Now charts the development of live art across six continents since the turn of the 21st century. It reveals how performance, so integral to the history of art in the 20th century, has become an increasingly essential vehicle for communicating ideas across the globe in the new millennium.
Renowned authority RoseLee Goldberg discusses key themes in performance art practice, from beauty, global citizenship and political activism to performance's intersection with film and technology, dance, theatre and architecture. Each chapter is followed by illustrated profiles of the world's best-known performance artists, accompanied by extended captions that assess the importance of specific works to the practice of international performance art.
A visually exciting and stimulating overview of this most varied art form, Performance Now is the go-to reference for artists, art students and historians as well as avant-garde theatre and movie goers.
Mountains
For sober thinking geologists, the formation of mountains (orogenesis) goes back to plate tectonics. The shifting of the continental plates causes mountains to form, erosion removes them again. Even the longest mountain range on earth was formed in this way: from Alaska to the Andes, the American Cordilleras form the eastern part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, where 452 volcanoes rise. And indeed, fire-spitting giants and bitterly cold worlds of ice are the main reasons for the fascination composed of fear and reverence that mountains exerted on early mankind. Mountain peaks were home to the oldest weather gods. In fact, mountains are meteorological divides and watersheds and determine the climate, and their diverse and unique vegetation zones are life-givers. Only hesitantly did people approach colossal holy mountains like the Annapurna in the Himalayas, the “Goddess of food and nourishment”. But curiosity won out, ice mummies in the Alps, Andes and Altai prove it: hunters, shepherds and priests were drawn early to these heavenly places. The highest archaeological site on earth is on Llullaillaco (6,739 m/22,109 ft): on the border between Argentina and Chile, the Incas were already building temples before 1500 AD.
The disenchantment of the peaks of the gods began around 1850 with the beginning of modern mountain sports. Today, almost all peaks from Aconcagua to the Zugspitze have been climbed, on the Eiger as well as on Everest the most difficult passages have been mastered thanks to experienced climbing skills. But the mountains have never lost their magnificent magic.
