The Secret Public


A monumental history of the LGBTQ influence on popular culture, from the award-winning, Sunday Times-bestselling author. An electrifying look at key moments in music and entertainment history between 1955 and 1979, which helped move gay culture from the margins to the mainstream and changed the face of pop forever - from the ambiguous sexuality of stars such as Little Richard in the 1950s through to David Bowie, glam rock and Sylvester's 'You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)'. The Secret Public is a searching examination of the fortitude and resilience of the gay community through the lens of popular music and culture; it reflects on the freedom found in divergence from the norm and reminds us of the need to be vigilant against those seeking to roll back the rights of marginalised groups.

Rizsporos hétköznapok - Trendek, forradalmak, nagymeNŐK a divattörténetből


Mi a közös Marie Antoinette-ben és Lady Dianában? Legyen országát egyedül irányító uralkodónő, 19. századi textilgyárban robotoló "mill girl" vagy szüfrazsett, a divat a történelem során szinte valamennyi nő életében jelentőséghez jutott. Lehetett eszköz a kezében, de lehetett fegyver is, amit ellene vetettek be. Jelenthette számára a megélhetést, anyagi függetlenséget, vagy ellenkezőleg, lehetett teher, korlát, amelyet le kellett "vetkőznie". Ebben a könyvben olyan nők kerülnek bemutatásra, akiknek életében fontos szerepet játszott a divat. Vagy azért, mert hatalmuknak, helyzetüknek megszilárdítására, politikai nézeteiknek kifejezésére használták, vagy mert épp a nők javára megreformálni kívánták azt. Ám e könyv lapjait nem csak híres nők és asszonyok foglalják el. Közelebbi ismeretségbe kerülhetünk a francia rokokó nagyhatalmú női "mantua" készítőivel és masamódjaival, a viktoriánus kor vagány női biciklistáival, vagy épp a főiskolás Gibson girlökkel. De a 16. század névtelen fonónőinek sorsa, a látványos viktoriánus viseletek mögött meghúzódó arctalan gyári munkásnők és divatműhelyekben (sweatshopokban) dolgoztatott nők millióinak körülményei is bemutatásra kerülnek. Budai Lotti az elmúlt években divattörténeti, nőtörténeti kutatómunkáját a Zubor Rozival közös Micsoda nagymeNŐK voltak! podcast és Micsoda történetek! könyvsorozat készítése/írása során történelmi nőalakok életének tanulmányozásával is kiegészítette. A kötet, amit az olvasó a kezében tart, az írónő e két érdeklődési területének ötvözete, hisz a híres nőalakokon túl, a divattörténet szerelmeseinek is izgalmakat kínál: az olvasó a Rizsporos hétköznapok első kötetében bemutatott divattörténeti korszakok jellemzőiről és azok tipikus viseleteiről is felfrissítheti ismereteit, mindezt olyan kontextusban, mely alaposabb rálátást kínál a nőtörténet, a feminizmus, az egyenjogúsági mozgalmak és a nők általános helyzetének, illetve a divatnak a kapcsolatára.

Koncept 10 - Fasáda


KONCEPT č. 10 sa venuje téme fasády. Architekti čoraz častejšie spájajú estetické riešenia so zodpovednosťou voči prírode a inovatívnymi materiálmi, čím vytvárajú fasády, ktoré nie sú len vizuálnym prvkom, ale aj nástrojom na komunikáciu ideí. Paláce a kostoly zdobili bohaté ornamenty, ktoré komunikovali moc alebo duchovnosť. Dnes sa však fasáda mení na médium, ktorým architektúra otvára dialóg s verejnosťou. Na stránkach Konceptu sa opäť venujeme aktuálnym projektom v oblasti Slovenska a Európy a uvedieme ich do širšieho spoločenského kontextu a rámca. Pozrieme sa na rôzne stavby od drobných, ale efektných riešení (HAUS) po rozsiahlejšie komplexy (Ilja Skoček, Juraj Hubinský + Kuklica a Smerek, Compass Architekti). Pozrieme sa aj na realizáciu využívajúcu vrstvenie hmôt ateliéru AMAA.

Manga: A New History of Japanese Comics


A groundbreaking story of Japanese comics from their nineteenth-century origins to the present day The immensely popular art form of manga, or Japanese comics, has made its mark across global pop culture, influencing film, visual art, video games, and more. This book is the first to tell the history of comics in Japan as a single, continuous story, focusing on manga as multipanel cartoons that show stories rather than narrate them. Eike Exner traces these cartoons’ gradual evolution from the 1890s until today, culminating in manga’s explosion in global popularity in the 2000s and the current shift from print periodicals to digital media and smartphone apps. Over the course of this 130-year history, Exner answers questions about the origins of Japanese comics, the establishment of their distinctive visuals, and how they became such a fundamental part of the Japanese publishing industry, incorporating well-known examples such as Dragon Ball and Sailor Moon, as well as historical manga little known outside of Japan. The book pays special attention to manga’s structural development, examining the roles played not only by star creators but also by editors and major publishers such as Kodansha that embraced comics as a way of selling magazines to different, often gendered, readerships. This engaging narrative presents extensive new research, making it an essential read for enthusiasts and experts alike.

Rodin's Dancers


Charting Auguste Rodin's relationships with the dancers who shaped his signature style and his mythic persona. Juliet Bellow traces Rodin's interactions with dance makers and performers during his late career (1890-1912) through a series of interrelated case studies. His exchanges with Loie Fuller, Vaslav Nijinsky, and members of the Cambodian Royal Ballet troupe were central to Rodin's development of a modern sculptural aesthetic and the construction of his artistic celebrity. But this was not a simple case of one-way influence. These performers actively courted an affiliation with Rodin, wielding sculpture's cultural authority to move dance from the realm of commercial entertainment to that of "high art." Bringing together art history and performance studies, Rodin's Dancers demonstrates that in their search for innovation, dancers and sculptors experimented with one another's means of expression, sites of display, and techniques of publicity. The book provides more than a new interpretation of Rodin's art: it considers how and why the name "Rodin" came to stand for a powerful constellation of ideas about art, authorship, and creative genius within the vibrant spectacle culture of Belle Époque Paris.

Compassion and Inconvenience


Compassion and Inconvenience combines artist Vika Kirchenbauer’s 30-minute video work Compassion and Inconvenience (2024)—with its script reproduced alongside stills and audio descriptions—and her essay Instituting Inconvenience and Colonial Relations: The Genesis of European Contemporary Art Institutions in Mid-18th Century London (2025). Both these contributions engage with the historical context of the cultural scene in mid-18th-century London, when the first public presentation of contemporary art took place. In a setting inextricably entangled with early capitalism and British colonialism, an emergent artistic elite fundamentally influenced how, for whom, and under what conditions contemporary art entered the public sphere. As part of this genesis, moral philosophical concepts and artists’ feelings—most distinctly around compassion and inconvenience—played important parts in inserting imaginings of superiority and constellations of dominance into the core of European notions of art and taste. By deepening into the historical roots of contemporary art exhibitions, this reader examines the conditions under which what we now consider self-evident came into being.

Oliver Jeffers


An overview of the life and work of Oliver Jeffers, the Belfast-raised illustrator, bookmaker, painter, designer, campaigner and global superstar of the world of visual communication A phenomenon of 21st-century bookmaking, Oliver Jeffers has carved an extraordinary career that shows no sign of slowing. Still only in his forties, he has published an array of hugely popular books, both as illustrator and author-illustrator. This overview of his life and work - so far - charts his passion for the environment and his quest to understand humanity's major challenges, and the impact this has had on his creative and intellectual output. The list of Jeffers's accomplishments is long and glittering: he has held numerous one-man shows, in both the UK and the USA, and was appointed an MBE in 2022 for services to the arts. Most importantly, however, he has tirelessly pushed the boundaries of what a picturebook can be. His regular exploration of existential issues - whether through illustration or other media such as site-specific installation or film - has exerted a major influence on the practice of authorial picturebook-making. This addition to Thames & Hudson's acclaimed Illustrators series is the first book to focus closely on Oliver Jeffers's practice as an illustrator, offering an in-depth analysis of his processes, influences, styles and subjects as they have changed over time.

Poszthumán stratégiák - Transzgresszív etika és esztétika a kortárs testábrázolásban


Győrffy László kötete a poszthumán testképek kortárs képzőművészetben betöltött szerepét vizsgálja nemzetközi és hazai művészek praxisán keresztül. A felvilágosodás utópiáját, a teleologikus gondolkodást tagadó vagy mellőző poszthumán művek az utóbbi években mindinkább a filozófia, az esztétika és a kultúratudományok érdeklődésének homlokterébe kerültek. A poszthumánnak tekintett alkotások elsősorban a transzgresszió, azaz a határsértés aktusa révén artikulálódnak a kortárs művészeti térben: ennek lényeges vonása, hogy a teljes határátlépés lehetetlen, vagyis a jelen kötetben is tárgyalt határsértő művek tulajdonképpen folyamatosan a lehetetlent kísértik. Győrffy interpretációinak másik lényeges kulcsszava az abject, azaz a taszító objektumok filozófiája. A biztonságot jelentő szimbolikus rend áthágása által megkérdőjelezhetővé válik a test egysége és a lélek transzcendenciája, ami új értelmezői hozzáállást követel meg. A képzőművészeti munkák elemzése filozófiai, irodalmi, filmes és zenei példákat is mozgósító intertextuális burjánzás, amely a hibrid test tematikáját Jake & Dinos Chapman mellett olyan művészeken keresztül közelíti meg, mint Cindy Sherman, Joel-Peter Witkin, Paul McCarthy, Patricia Piccinini, Wim Delvoye, Marc Quinn, Glenn Brown, Szöllősi Géza vagy Kis Róka Csaba. Bár a kötet alapvetően a nemzetközi szintér képviselőire fókuszál, a Budapest Horror jelenségének áttekintésével, valamint a szerző saját képzőművészeti munkáival is foglalkozik. A Poszthumán stratégiák a Prae Kiadó kultúratudományi sorozatának legújabb darabja, az antropocentrikus szemléletet kritizáló poszthumanista gondolkodást ismertető monográfiák (Horváth Márk - Lovász Ádám - Nemes Z. Márió: A poszthumanizmus változatai, 2019; Horváth Márk: Az antropocén, 2021) folytatásának is tekinthető.
