Walker Evans


A major reassessment of Walker Evans that shows him as a photographer both of his time and very much ahead of it. Walker Evans (1903-1975) is one of the great enduring figures of modern photography. His vivid images are inseparable from the history of the medium and the history of the USA. The subject matter was quintessentially American - small-town life, typical buildings, commercial signs and anonymous citizens - but Evans brought to them the curiosity and fascination of an outsider. His exacting eye defined an era while also questioning it. Pop artists and Conceptualists saw Evans as a pioneer and precursor, and his sensibility continues to inspire countless younger image makers. Walker Evans offers a broad overview of his work and its lasting influence on generations of artists. It brings together key photographs and projects spanning his entire career - from self-portraits of the 1920s to his Polaroid experiments in the 1970s - along with books and other publications that reflect his tireless capacity for observation. Together, the works reveal a creator who not only documented the world around him but also invited viewers to question the nature of photography and the perception of reality itself.

King Kong


The 2005 book King Kong: The History of a Movie Icon from Fay Wray to Peter Jackson covered the six King Kong movies that had been produced up at that time: King Kong (1933), The Son of Kong (1933), King Kong Vs. Godzilla (1962), King Kong Escapes (1967), King Kong (1976), and King Kong Lives (1986), providing in-depth chapters chronicling the conception, production, release, and legacy of each film.The book also contained chapters on other Kong-related projects, as well as a brief preview of Peter Jackson’s 2005 King Kong remake, which had not yet opened at the time of the book’s publication and so could not be examined in depth. Since the book’s publication, Jackson’s film was released and two additional Kong films have been produced: 2017’s Kong: Skull Island and 2021’s Godzilla Vs. Kong. There has also been a major Broadway musical version of the story, two new animated series, and a number of novels, comic books, and graphic novels. There is also a new film on the way: Godzilla Vs. Kong 2, which is currently slated for release in 2025.With so much new Kong material to cover and a new Kong film on the way, this expanded and updated version of the book is the most complete, thorough, and comprehensive history of the cinematic King Kong possible.

Vila Lanna. Příběh domu a lidí


Vila Lanna je zřejmě nejstarší dochovanou neorenesanční stavbou v Praze. Její stavitel Vojtěch Lanna mladší ji užíval od počátku 70. let 19. století do roku 1909. Jeho syn ji prodal v roce 1913 bubenečskému starostovi Aloisi Potůčkovi. Od Potůčkovy rodiny ji získal karlínský podnikatel v oboru minerálních olejů Vojtěch Zikmund. Přestože byla vila Lanna už za tzv. první republiky pod částečným památkovým dohledem a několikrát prošla renovací, její další osudy i majitelé ve 20. století zůstávali dlouhou dobu téměř neznámí. V průběhu let získala vila podle svých vlastníků i nájemníků - zvučných i méně známých jmen - řadu přídomků: vila Lanna či Lannova vila, vila generála Pellé, vila generála Mittelhausera, Vila Valdštejn (Villa Waldstein) anebo Valdštejnský palác (Palais Waldstein), podle Adrienny Tůmové, provdané Waldstein-Wartenbergové. Dokonce byla po určitou dobu známa jako Polská vila, protože zde krátce po skončení druhé světové války sídlil polský konzulát. Nakonec se opět vrátila k původnímu označení vila Lanna, i když současnými zaměstnanci Akademie věd České republiky je familiárně nazývána jen jako "Lannovka". Vydejme se po stopách vily Lanna a objevme, že není jen výjimečným architektonickým skvostem, ale také významným dějinným symbolem Prahy i tohoto státu, s jehož osudy se několikrát protnula.

Bratislava


Kniha zachytáva atmosféru Bratislavy v rokoch 1944 až 1964, ako ju vnímal významný slovenský fotograf Karol Kállay. Prostredníctvom fotografií a lyrických textov rozpráva príbeh mesta, jeho obyvateľov a štvrtí, ktoré dnes už neexistujú. Pripomína časy tesne po vojne, keď sa mesto spamätávalo z hrôz a začalo si vytvárať novú tvár. Ale aj časy, keď ho ubíjala nezmyselnosť nového režimu. Všetko sa odráža aj na tvárach obyvateľov Bratislavy, ktorých životy autor zvečnil na svojich výnimočných fotografiách. Úvodný text, preložený do anglického jazyka, napísal profesor Jozef Leikert.

Raphael. Paintings, Frescoes, Tapestries. 45th Ed.


Raphael (1483–1520) is considered the most important artist of the Italian High Renaissance alongside Michelangelo and Leonardo. In his short lifetime he created around one hundred paintings and numerous frescoes, including nine fresco cycles, on an unsurpassed variety of themes – from sensual female beauties, antique myths and portraits of wealthy Romans and church dignitaries to history cycles and biblical scenes. He produced altarpieces, as well as designing tapestries for the Sistine Chapel. His Sistine Madonna is one of the most frequently reproduced religious paintings of all time. Raphael was a tireless learner, for whom there could be no standing still, no repetition of tried and tested solutions, but only the constant forward thrust of an inexhaustible imagination. He transformed his central theme, the visionary experience of divine grace, into visible pictorial reality. It was his mature work in Rome, and above all the frescoes in the Vatican Palace, that secured him his place in art history. Admired even during his own lifetime as the most modern artist of his day, Raphael’s mastery would pave the way for Mannerism and the Baroque era.

Chinese Propaganda Posters. 45th Ed.


With his smooth, warm, ruddy face which radiated light in all directions, Chairman Mao Zedong was a fixture in Chinese propaganda posters produced between the birth of the People’s Republic in 1949 and the early 1980s. Chairman Mao, portrayed as a stoic superhero (aka the Great Teacher, the Great Leader, the Great Helmsman, the Supreme Commander), appeared in all kinds of situations (inspecting factories, smoking a cigarette with peasant workers, standing by the Yangzi River in a bathrobe, presiding over the bow of a ship, or floating over a sea of red flags), flanked by strong, healthy, ageless men and “masculinized” women and children wearing baggy, sexless, drab clothing. The goal of each poster was to show the Chinese people what sort of behavior was considered morally correct and how great the future of Communist China would be if everyone followed the same path toward utopia by uniting together. This book brings together a selection of colorful propaganda artworks and cultural artifacts of Chinese propaganda posters, many of which are now extremely rare.

Colour Unbound: Henri Matisse 1941–1954


1941 marked a turning point in the life and work of Henri Matisse. At the age of seventy-two, he underwent major surgery that left him physically fragile. Yet Matisse viewed this moment not as a setback but as an opportunity 'to make the greatest progress of my life'. From that point until his death in 1954, he entered one of the most inspired and productive periods of his career. During those years, he created some of his greatest masterpieces - from the Chapel of the Rosary in Vence to his luminous cut-out gouaches, including Jazz. Vibrant and full of life, his late work stands in striking contrast to his declining physical state: dynamic, immediate and universally accessible. Published to accompany the major exhibition at the Grand Palais, this catalogue brilliantly captures this late burst of creative vitality. Elegantly designed and beautifully printed, it brings together superb full-page reproductions of Matisse's artworks alongside rarely seen photographs of his studio, taken by renowned photographers such as Adant, Capa, Carone, Cartier-Bresson, Sima and Maywald. This visual dialogue - enriched by expert commentary - offers a deeper understanding of Matisse's final years and vividly conveys the synergy between art and life.
