Nekonečný sloup a jiné hry
Světoznámý historik náboženství Mircea Eliade (1907-1986), jehož odborné dílo i poválečná tvorba prozaická jsou českému čtenáři známy už téměř v úplnosti, se nyní představuje i jako dramatický autor. O problematiku divadla se zajímal už od mládí, jeho úvahy však nikdy nevykrystalizovaly v nějakou ucelenou teorii, najdeme je roztroušené především v jeho poválečné novelistice a románech Svatojánská noc a Devatenáct růží. Modernistické, prvotní posvátnosti zbavené pojetí divadla, se podle Eliada už vyčerpalo a vyvstává potřeba návratu k pramenům, neboť „divadlo by se velice záhy mohlo stát novou eschatologií nebo soteriologií, technikou spásy“. Jeho vlastní hry v duchu těchto představ hojně odkazují ke světovým mytologiím. Ifigenie, vystavená na půdorysu známé antické tragédie, je tak obohacena o prvky z rumunského lidového bájesloví, o motiv smrti jako kosmické svatby a tvůrčí oběti, jež doprovází každé velké dílo. Ve hře Kameny a lidé, založené na dichotomii vědec – umělec Eliade krom jiného odkazuje k mytologii kamenů a labyrintu, ve hře Nekonečný sloup pak na díle sochaře Constantina Brâncuşie ilustruje starobylou, předkřesťanskou symboliku sloupu podepírajícího nebeskou klenbu, symboliku extatického vzestupu, letu a transcendence.
Bůh byl na tomto místě a já jsem to nevěděla
Leona Kalvodová se ve svých fotografiích vydala na místa, kde někteří pokládají Boží přítomnost za zajištěnou – do kostelů, klášterů a do svatého města Jeruzaléma. Ty však slouží jako kulisy, které zabydlují lidé svým soustředěním, tichem, napětím. Hry světel a prchavých lidských zjevování nachází ale i na řadě jiných míst; v neposlední řadě zachycuje portréty svých přátel, nejčastěji Ivana a Dáši Havlových. Jak píše ve své předmluvě Jindřich Štreit, největší mistrovství však musí prokázat při zachycení tváře. Důležité je vystihnout onu setinu sekundy, kdy se v obličeji objeví záře, vnitřní pokora, napětí, smutek, hnutí duše. V tu chvíli může fotografka cítit, že je s ní Bůh. Leona nám ve svých fotografiích umožňuje poznat obyčejně neobyčejný život.
Surrealism - Worlds in Dialogue
Surrealism revolutionised art with fantastic, radically subjective motifs. As a political and international movement, the artists wanted to change society. The topicality of their ideas enables a fascinating comparison between important pioneers of Surrealism and the following generations of artists.
In a world that is increasingly dominated by technology, the examination of one’s own consciousness that was characteristic of Surrealism is moving into focus once more. What effects are technologies having on our society? What is it that makes us human? Topics like the search for identity, irrationality and the game of perception can be found in the works of René Magritte and Claude Cahun as well as David Lynch and Cindy Sherman. Some 120 top-class paintings, photographs, film sequences, collages and sculptures provide an exciting tour through 100 years of surreal worlds.
Artists include Hans Bellmer, Luis Bunuel, Marco Brambilla, Claude Cahun, George Condo, Salvador Dalí, Marcel Duchamp, Max Ernst, Alfred Hitchcock, Sarah Lucas, David Lynch, René Magritte, Joan Miró, Meret Oppenheim, Tony Oursler, Man Ray, Cindy Sherman, Penny Slinger, Dorothea Tanning, Erwin Wurm.
German Expressionism
In a time like our own, where a young generation feels a great need to change our way of living, thinking and organizing ourselves, the publication on the artist group Brücke feels particularly relevant. These young artists also wanted to renew art and life in the German Imperial Empire and have ever since inspired younger generations of artists.
In bright paintings with simplified forms and large fields of color they expressed rather their feelings than an external reality. They were interested in topics like man and nature, the naked body, portraits, self-portraits, the merging of life and art and life in the vibrant metropolis of Berlin. The catalogue discusses among others how we today perceive and can take on challenging themes like inspiration from African and Oceanian colonial cultural objects and of very young female models.
Artists include Erich Heckel, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Max Pechstein, Karl Schmidt-Rottluff.

Any aspiring animator would be lucky to have this book for an exclusive insight into how a major animation studio makes films.
From Skydance Animation, the animation studio that made Luck, comes Spellbound – the magical musical fantasy for kids and adults alike. Spellbound is the tale of young Princess Ellian who must embark on a daring quest to save her family and home from a mysterious curse which transforms her parents into monsters and engulfs the kingdom of Lumbria with an ominous shadow.
Acting Techniques in the 20th Century
The book Acting Techniques in the 20th Century has been published twice in Slovakia – this is the book’s third edition, amended and published for the first time in English. In the book, Mistrík summarizes the knowledge of various acting techniques and theories that were used in twentieth-century theatre. In clearly arranged chapters, owing to an engaging text, which is enriched by a large selection of historical photographs, readers can get behind the scenes of the theatre and extend their understanding of the aesthetic and social contexts of theatre art. This is not an acting textbook, nor does it aspire to present a systematic history of acting – it is mainly focused on the most important personalities and theatres, leaving it at the readers‘ discretion whether they want to look for inspiration for their artistic growth and theatrical work. It’s a book of inspirations for twenty-first century acting.
Expresia architektonickej myšlienky
Publikácia prináša úvahy a poznatky o prvotnej, fundamentálnej fáze zrodu architektonického diela s dôrazom na prvú myšlienku architekta pri tvorbe architektúry a na rozmanitosť jej grafickej interpretácie. Zamerané sú hlavne na spôsoby prezentácie architektonických koncepcií, teda na úvodnú fázu tvorby, a nie na jej finálny produkt – realizáciu diela.
Architektúra nezačína výkopovými prácami na stavenisku, či betónovaním základov stavby. Vzniká oveľa skôr, v mysli architekta, na jeho pracovnom stole, v jeho autorskom návrhu.
Úspech architektonickej štúdie nezáleží len na správnosti riešenia úlohy, ale aj na jej presvedčivej a výstižnej grafickej interpretácii.
Kniha zoznamuje čitateľa s diverzifikáciou postupov a metód vo vizuálnej a ikonografickej prezentácii architektonického návrhu.
Cieľom predkladaných úvah preto ani nie je dospieť ku všeobecným a konečným riešeniam. Tým by sa poprela logika tvorby architektonického obrazu ako autonómnej výtvarnej disciplíny a tiež možnosti jej ďalšieho rozvoja.

Included are step-by-step demonstrations that feature original illustrations from the author, photography of human figures, as well as art historical references from Old Masters.
This beautiful and utilitarian guide is indispensable and will appeal to artists, art students, and anyone interested in the artistic and scientific depiction of the human figure and human anatomy.

Look Good, Feel Good, Play Good
The first book to chart a visual history of women’s sportswear, and the key role that Nike has played in it over the last 50 years
This is a book about Nike sportswear and what it means to women. The garments women wear, and why they wear them. It’s about athletes, from the elite to the aspiring amateur, running marathons or running errands. It’s about the spaces we perform in, and the way we use clothing to do it: from the track and the fitness studio, to an online world and the street outside.
Look Good, Feel Good, Play Good visualizes the relationship between women and the garments they wear through five design archetypes from sporting history: warm-ups, jerseys, leggings, sport bras, and shorts. Steeped in narrative, history, and Nike’s abundant archive, the book’s rich imagery spans reproductions of Nike’s trade catalogues that date back to the early 1980s, period and contemporary photography, sketches, advertisements, fabric swatches, seasonal color palettes, original design proposals and patents, logos, product and campaign shots, and everything in between.
Each chapter features interviews with Nike athletes, trainers, and other collaborators, along with insightful texts from cultural commentators. Across more than 350 pages and 575 images, this unprecedented volume not only maps the development of women’s sports apparel but proves its potential, in whatever context, to make athletes who identify as women feel at their most powerful.
Featuring contributions from: Dina Asher-Smith, Scout Bassett, Joan Benoit Samuelson, Sue Bird, Deyna Castellanos, Chandra Cheeseborough, Anna Cockrell, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Kirsty Godso, Xochilt Hoover, Rayssa Leal, Tatyana Mcfadden, Naomi Osaka, Megan Rapinoe, Sha’Carri Richardson, Caster Semenya, and Dawn Staley.
Featuring essays by: Dal Chodha, the Editor-in-Chief of Archivist Addendum; Michelle Millar Fisher, the Wornick Curator of Contemporary Decorative Arts at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Heather Radke, an essayist, journalist, and contributing editor, and reporter at Radiolab; Samantha N. Sheppard, an Associate Professor of Cinema and Media Studies at Cornell University; and Natalie E. Wright, a historian of design and disability.

Book of Games
Carsten Höller invites readers to disrupt their daily lives with 336 mind-expanding diversions. They can be played alone, in pairs or in teams, in the street, in bed, on a train, wherever. No props or materials are needed. Just one body, all senses and a willingness to try something new, that's possibly conceptually or physically challenging, but guaranteed to entertain and to widen the player's horizons.
Some games are more obviously daring than others - unexpectedly shouting 'bang!' when your driver's reversing into a parking space is sure to elicit a reaction - but that's absolutely the point. Other games involve covertly dropping strange phrases into conversation, executing somersaults (without practice), or plucking hairs from your opponent's head while they stay poker-faced.
Höller's scientific professional background informs his keenness to create what he calls Influential Environments. He wants to tease the brain while testing its limitations, through activity and passivity, agency and inertia. He conceived his first game with a group of friends in 1992, during a tedious dinner after an exhibition opening. Since then, he has collected and invented ideas, inspired by friends, life, the Surrealists, and Arthur Rimbaud. All games are illustrated with commissioned or pre-existing artworks and photographs. We find portraits by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin, August Sander, and Nan Goldin next to paintings by Salvador Dali; snapshots of Joseph Beuys plus son and Donna Haraway plus dog next to appointed pieces by Christine Sun Kim and Anri Sala; film stills by Chantal Akerman, extracts from Shakespeare as well as treasures from Höller's personal archive-and his mother's.
Edited by Stefanie Hessler and Hans Ulrich Obrist, this book encourages readers to engage in playful yet cerebral experiments that will leave them with a sense of wonder, disorientation, and a subtle smirk on their face.
Depeche Mode Live
Depeche Mode už desaťročia prinášajú potešenie fanúšikom po celom svete a za obrovský úspech z veľkej časti vďačia svojim výnimočným živým vystúpeniam. Autori Dennis Burmeister a Sascha Lange sa v tejto knihe zameriavajú práve na ne, keď sledujú vývoj kapely medzi rokmi 1980 a 2023 - od prvých koncertov v zadymených krčmách pred desiatkami divákov až po vypredané svetové turné s miliónmi fanúšikov.

Slovenské vydanie knihy navyše dopĺňajú texty týkajúce sa vystúpení Depeche Mode v Česku a na Slovensku od roku 1988, ako aj fotografie z týchto koncertov.

Vily nad bratislavským starým mestom
Kniha o architektúre a životnom štýle vo vilovej časti Bratislavy obsahuje viac ako 700 vilových domov na Hradnom vrchu, na Slavíne, na Kalvárii a v priľahlom Horskom parku, ale aj v širšom okolí centra mesta. Autori v krátkych historických exkurzoch zachytávajú ich podobu od stredoveku, keď tam ešte boli vinohrady, poľovné revíry a pastviny, neskôr výletné reštaurácie a hostince. Tieto lokality sa postupne menili na obytné štvrte lepšie situovaných Bratislavčanov – od letných sídiel talianskeho typu v polovici 19. storočia cez nemecko-maďarskú romantizujúcu a eklektickú zástavbu v okolí Palisád na prelome 19. a 20. storočia až po stavebný rozmach za prvej Československej republiky a súčasnú modernú vilovú architektúru. Čitateľ sa zoznámi s najvýznamnejšími projektantmi a staviteľmi, ale aj s pôvodnými i neskoršími majiteľmi a obyvateľmi týchto neraz výnimočných architektonických objektov dotvárajúcich dnešnú siluetu Bratislavy.

nendo: A Big Book of Small Ideas
A large-format book that uncovers the secrets behind Nendo’s unique creative process. He named his firm ‘Nendo’, the Japanese word for modelling clay; he uses manga-like sketches to illustrate his design concepts; and he creates some of the most imaginative furniture in the world: he is Oki Sato, one of Japan’s most prolific designers. At any given moment, he has hundreds of projects in the works – architecture, interiors, furniture, tableware, and more.
‘There is nothing I would not design,’ says Sato. Sato renders his designs with remarkable conceptual clarity. At the outset, he allows his imagination to run wild and then documents his idea with a simple black line drawing – be it a bathroom basin defined by a single, ceramic swirl or a pair of wooden chopsticks that twist together to become one.
These 2D images are converted into minimal 3D shapes described with clean outlines and a largely monochrome palette. Like a traditional Japanese ink painting, which constructs an image with just a few brush strokes, Sato extracts the unnecessary and eliminates distraction. Featuring Sato’s original sketches, full-scale product images and explanatory texts, Project Nendo uncovers and unpicks the designer’s unique creative process, guiding the reader step-by-step through his innovative and playful world to reveal the secrets behind fifty of his inimitable works.
