Eccentric (Bilingual edition)


Courageous, free, humorous, touching and disturbing: these works by fifty international artists show how eccentric means more than neurotic or decadent. Eccentricity resists all kinds of ideology, and indeed it can be an engine of social freedom and tolerance. Through approximately one hundred pieces - including painting, sculpture, installation art, video and design - diversity is celebrated in ways that defy rigid norms and clichés. Inspiring, thoughtful and quick-witted, the short texts in this book introduce us to some of the most brilliant eccentrics of the art world. The overall impression is just as dazzling as it is multifaceted and shows the full scope of work that is "eccentric" (from ex centro, outside the middle) through experiments with materials or free-spirited approaches to themes such as identity, body, environment and humanity. Richly illustrated and beautifully designed, this magazine-like catalogue is a feast for the eyes and will awaken curiosity about the eccentric in all of us.

Early Buster Keaton


Since nearly every aspect of Keaton’s story and work has been written about in some form, it is the goal of this book to present a new perspective on Keaton’s early life in the entertainment business, beginning before vaudeville and moving through the Comique films, Keaton’s first foray into the industry. A microscopic approach to this early period has the goal of illuminating in great detail the formative years of Keaton’s career, in order to better understand the brilliance of his ‘independence’ and the tragedy of his years at MGM, bringing him to a place in entertainment history that celebrates the little gems and sparks of brilliance in his later creative life and career. This study will utilize the minute detail provided by industry rags, such as The New York Clipper and The Moving Picture World and the publication of rare archival photos to differentiate itself from other works by delving deeper into each moment during the specified twenty-four early years of Keaton’s life and career, up to and including the transition to his ‘independent’ productions with Joseph Schenk, beginning with The High Sign (1920), The Saphead (1920) and One Week (1920), his first efforts in the new era.

Jaroslav J. Králík


Ač malíř a grafik Jaroslav Králík (1924–1999) vládl osobitým a inovativním stylem, přesto jeho dílo doposud zůstává širší veřejnosti spíše neznámé. Symbolickou splátkou toho dluhu je výpravná publikace, kterou připravil umělcův syn a která je důstojným potvrzením pevného Králíkova postavení v rámci umění druhé poloviny 20. století. K jeho spolužákům z ateliéru Emila Filly patřili například Čestmír Kafka a sestry Válovy, přátelské vztahy později navázal s Františkem Tichým či Kamilem Lhotákem. Oblast jeho tvůrčího zájmu byla široká, od monumentálních realizací do architektury a veřejného prostoru (gobelíny, art protis, vitráže) až po intimní kresby, grafiky či koláže, v nichž zejména rozvíjel citace obrazů starých mistrů, nejčastěji Hieronyma Bosche, Matthiase Grünewalda, Pietera Bruegela, Albrechta Dürera, Piera della Francesco či Sandra Botticelliho, fascinovala jej též estetika rukopisného písma nebo tištěného textu. Králíkova originální výtvarná řeč s ozvuky metafyzické malby, surrealismu a symbolismu otevírá široký prostor pro hlubší kosmologické otázky i úvahy o okolním světě a roli člověka v něm.

For an Ecology of Images


When Susan Sontag first proposed the idea of an "ecology of images," she meant it as an exhortation to be vigilant against the vast surplus of pictures threatening our ability to truly see. Today, beyond the deep anxieties over a diminishing attention economy, concern focuses on the environmental cost of storing and circulating the digital images that confront us with unprecedented speed. Against the disposable rapidity demanded by digital media, Peter Szendy emphasizes the labor and time required for images to develop and come into view. This inquisitive essay takes us from mimicry in the animal kingdom to the history of the shadow, Pliny's story about the birth of painting to Nabokov's butterflies, the first use of slo-mo in film to the first aerial photograph.

Contemporary Landscape Architecture: Masterpieces around the World


This compendium presents an international showcase of contemporary landscape design between global trends, local traditions, climatic conditions, functional demands, new technologies, economic circumstances, and individual styles. Whether around, besides, on top of, or even in buildings, in populated areas or in the countryside, landscape architecture develops and designs outdoor spaces for humans as independent creations. It mediates between nature and architecture and connects the grown and the planned habitat, balancing function and aesthetics. Against the backdrop of climate change, the central task today is the conservation of natural resources and the creation of sustainable, high-quality green spaces. A reference work and source of inspiration, this compendium provides an overview of the entire spectrum of this discipline based on projects around the world. Their common denominator is the design of ecologically and socially intact living space. Almost exactly ten years after the publishing of the Atlas of World Landscape Architecture, this new publication takes stock of the developments of the last decade.

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.

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.
