Showcases works from the past 40 years of one of Britain's most acclaimed living artists In the spring of 2024, ARKEN Museum of Modern Art presents the first solo exhibition in Scandinavia featuring one of Britain's most renowned artists. In his monumental and spectacular installations, Anish Kapoor explores the tension between mass and emptiness, between what can be seen and what cannot. This is evident when he invites viewers to let their gaze disappear into his 'black holes' - the paradoxical manifestation of invisibility that fundamentally challenges the experience of the spectator. Kapoor's works evoke both awe and a sense of disquiet; they are often executed on a very large scale and are extremely physical and present. The richly illustrated exhibition catalog delves into Anish Kapoor's work through selected pieces and texts, opening up a wide range of philosophical, poetic, physical, and existential questions.

Ybl Miklós (1814 - 1891) Ybl Miklós magyar építész, a 19. század egyik legnagyobb magyar mestere, a historizmus európai jelentőségű képviselője. Életpályája 1814. április 6-án született Székesfehérváron, édesapja Ybl Miklós székesfehérvári kereskedő, a megyei választmány tagja, édesanyja Eiman Anna. 1825-től a párizsi Császári és Királyi Polytechnikai Intézetben végezte tanulmányait, 1832-től Pollack Mihály, majd 1836-tól Koch Henrik építész irodájában dolgozott. 1840-ben Münchenbe ment, ahol beiratkozott a Királyi Művészeti Akadémiára. 1841-ben Itáliában tett tanulmányutat. 1843. január 16-án Szepesi Ferenc tanácsnok aláírásával kebelbeli kőmíves mesterré jelölték. Egy 1841. november 30-án megjelent újsághirdetés szerint Pollack Mihály fia, Pollack Ágoston és Ybl Miklós megnyitották az Építészeti Intézetet. 1845-ben megbízást kapott Károlyi Istvántól, hogy építse át fóti kastélyát, valamint tervezze meg a templomot. Egyhamar Károlyi uradalmi építésze lett. 1851-ben költözött vissza Pestre, Fóton feleségül vette a grazi születésű Lafite Ida nevelőnőt. 1860-ben Széchenyi István is Ybl-t kérte fel, hogy cenki birtokára templomot tervezzen. Ebben a korszakban készült a Múzeum körúti átjáróház, a jelenlegi Bajcsy-Zsilinszky út 17. sz alatti bérház a második világháború során elpusztult Nemzeti Lovarda. 1864-ben megszületett fia, Félix. Hamarosan céhtag lett, a romantikus stílusnak búcsút intett, s ezután neoreneszánsz stílusban tervezte épületeit. Ekkortájt épült fel a Bródy Sándor utca 8. alatti Képviselőház. A ház néhány hónap leforgása alatt elkészült, Ybl pedig elnyerte a Ferenc József-rend lovagkeresztjét. 1870-ben hozzáfogott a Fővámház megtervezésének, mely elkészülte után számos negatív kritikát kapott. Ney Béla miniszteri főmérnök azonban korszakalkotónak nevezte az épületet. Podmaniczky Frigyes az Operaház megtervezésére 1873. szeptemberében meghívásos pályázatot hirdetett meg, melynek pályadíját Ybl terve nyerte el. A kivitelezés 1875. októberében indult, és hamarosan Ybl-t építésvezetőnek nevezték ki. 1878. december 7-én tartották meg a bokrétaünnepet, majd 1887. szeptember 27-én a Bánk bán előadásával nyílt meg az Operaház, melyen a királyi család is részt vett. Egyidejűleg a Várkert-bazár megvalósításán is dolgozott (1875-1882), mely olasz, német és francia függőkertek mintájára készült. Belépett a Közmunkatanácsba, 1882-ben megkapta a Lipót-rend lovagkereszjét, 1885. június 21-én pedig a király a főrendiház tagjává nevezte ki. Folytatta a Hild József által tervezett Szent István Bazilika építését is, majd a budai Vár kiépítésén fáradozott. Ybl Miklós ezt a művét már nem tudja befejezni, ugyanis 1891. január 22-én elhunyt. Korai stílusát a romantika jellemezte, román elemekkel, később a neoreneszánsz vált stílusára jellemzővé. Sokat foglalkoztatott, nagy hatású művész volt, akit életében is elismertek. Nagy fájdalma volt, hogy ugyan közreműködött a Magyar Tudományos Akadémia székházának felépítésében, az akadémia nem választotta a tagjai sorába. Számos alkotása közül a fő művének az Andrássy úton az Operaház (Magyar Állami Operaház) neoreneszánsz épülete számít. Ybl Miklós életét és munkásságát korabeli dokumentumok, több, korábban nem publikált archív felvétel és saját rajzai segítségével mutatjuk be.

A szerző írja: Nem egy végső és cáfolhatatlan igazság földerítése volt a célom, hanem egy olyan út megnyitása, amin végighaladva más kutatók idővel eljuthatnak akár a teljes igazsághoz is. Abban azonban már most bizonyos vagyok, hogy a Magyar Szent Korona olyan titkokat rejt magában, amelyek az idők kezdetéhez vezetnek vissza, amikor a magyarság ősei elszakíthatatlan kapcsolatba kerültek a Mindenhatóval.

The excellence of Italian design through 100 vases from the beginning of the last century to the present. What, if anything, sets an “Italian” vase apart from the vast numbers of vases produced worldwide? A vase is both an everyday object and an object that lends itself to a huge variety of interpretations, a field in which Italian designers excel in terms of originality and recognizability (not to mention the inherent “sustainability” of the vase as object, typically made from the most ecological of materials, like clay or silica glass). The intention behind 100 Vases of Italian Design is to analyse and provide a possible response to the concept of Italian style by exploring one of its most common and enduring expressions. Materials, forms, tradition, and innovation unfold before readers’ eyes, page after page, helping them seek meaning in the challenge posed by the title: the selection comprises vases ? all of which have gone into production, sometimes as a small or very small series ? from the past century, from Galileo Chini to Fabio Novembre, spanning the golden era from the 1930s to the 1960s. Introduced by the essays by Marco Meneguzzo and Enrico Morteo on the concept and the history of Italian vases, the book invites the reader to discover 100 years of materials, forms, tradition and invention.

Ladislav MEDNYÁNSZKY (1852 Beckov – 1919 Viedeň) bol jedným z najvýznamnejších maliarov prelomu 19. a 20. storočia a rozhodne najznámejším umelcom Barbizonu u nás. Vo svojej dobe bol uznávaný predovšetkým ako krajinár. Barbizonské chápanie krajiny bolo v súlade s jeho vnútorným svetom a tento typ krajinomaľby v duchu lyrického realizmu, ktorý uprednostňoval zážitok umelca, jeho individuálne pocity a nálady, čoskoro priviedol na majstrovskú úroveň. Prehlboval sa jeho záujem o filozofiu, budhizmus a teozofiu, ktoré zamýšľal istým spôsobom zapracovať do svojich diel.

The story of internationally renowned architect I. M. Pei's life and work. I. M. Pei (1917–2019) was one of the world's most influential architects. Born and raised in China, Pei trained and worked in the United States, establishing a practice that spanned seven decades and multiple continents. His legacy includes the realization of some of the most high-profile projects of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, from the modernization of the Louvre in Paris to the design of the Museum of Islamic Art in Doha. Going beyond the usual building-by-building format of most architectural monographs, I. M. Pei: Life Is Architecture is organized thematically, exploring Pei's life and work through six topics that were central to his unique approach to architecture: transcultural identity, urban redevelopment, art and civic form, material and structural innovation, politics and patronage, and regenerating cultural and historical archetypes. Bringing together previously unpublished archival materials, specially commissioned essays, new photography, and personal contributions from those who knew and worked with Pei, this book presents both celebrated and lesser-known aspects of the architect's life and career while solidifying his position in architectural history and popular culture. 471 illustrations
