Martin Gerboc - Monografia (vydanie 2024)
Martin Gerboc (maliar, spisovateľ, filmár, kurátor, filozof, niekoľkoročný pedagóg na pražskej Akadémii výtvarných umení) je jednou z najvýraznejších osobností súčasnej maľby v širšom stredoeurópskom kontexte. Jeho meno sa v tejto súvislosti na výstavách objavuje s najdôležitejšími menami nielen európskeho, ale aj svetového umenia.
Práce Martina Gerboca demonštrujú jeho anti-estetické presvedčenie. Sú akousi extatickou cestou rozkošami a tortúrami tela i ducha, cestou svetom, ktorý môžu preskúmať len tí, ktorí sú ochotní riskovať. Úlohou Martina Gerboca je donútiť diváka, aby videl svet úplne jeho spôsobom. Preto k svojej tvorbe pristupuje z pozície „režiséra“, ktorý vyznáva spriaznenosť s interdisciplinárnym presahom z hudby, filmu, divadla, filozofie atď., a využíva vo svoj prospech ich vplyv a možné účinky ich manipulatívnosti. Uprednostňuje priame vyjadrenie zložitých myšlienok s často tragickou a nadčasovou témou. Autor vyhľadáva vyhrotené emocionálne stavy, ktoré zobrazuje až kabaretným spôsobom. Celostné vnímanie ho vedie k presvedčeniu, že umelec by mal byť režisérom emočne silného zážitku a obraz je len jedným z prostriedkov vyjadrenia osobnej angažovanosti.
Okrem textov kurátoriek a teoretičiek umenia Jane Neal, Zory Rusinovej a filozofa Miroslava Marcelliho prináša publikácia aj rozsiahly rozhovor s českým kurátorom a teoretikom umenia Ottom M. Urbanom. Táto vizuálne výnimočne spracovaná a reprezentatívna monografia na 312 stranách a viac než 300 reprodukciách a fotografiách prináša okrem pohľadu na jeho výtvarnú prácu aj ukážky z jeho filmových prác a pod. Kniha je v tvrdej väzbe s prebalom. (A.H.)
A World of Our Own
A new edition of one of the first books to focus on the world of women artists and their practice.
Women have always practiced as artists, but for centuries the art world considered them mere dilettantes. Their work was derided as second-rate, and they were considered intruders in a male profession. This study examines how, against the odds, they overcame these difficulties and shifts the focus away from women artists as "victims" to give an account of how they actually practiced their art. This stirring account documents the centuries- long struggle of gifted women who confronted the exclusionary tactics of a male-dominated art establishment but pressed ahead undaunted to gain acceptance as sought-after professionals.
Art historian Frances Borzello takes readers deep into the restricted world of women artists of the past, showing how diligently they trained themselves, set up studios, and pursued sympathetic patrons. Starting with Renaissance painters Sofonisba Anguissola and Lavinia Fontana, the book reconstructs the changing world of women artists as social attitudes evolved. Seventeenth-century painters Artemisia Gentileschi and Judith Leyster enjoyed success by depicting subjects relevant to women, as did eighteenth- century greats Angelica Kauffman and Élisabeth Vigée-Lebrun with lucrative commissions. Further breakthroughs came in the nineteenth century as young hopefuls Mary Cassatt and Marie Bashkirtseff strove to be admitted to exhibiting societies and opened art schools. Finally, as equality for women advanced through the twentieth century, Augusta Savage, Georgia O'Keeffe, Frida Kahlo, Cindy Sherman, Mona Hatoum, and others led the way for today's talented women to secure their rightful place in the annals of art. Now fully revised and updated, Frances Borzello's engaging narrative continues to inspire.

Contemporary Brick Buildings
Of all building materials in the world, brick is one of the most enduring and ubiquitous. Traces of brickmaking date back to 7500 BC and fired brick first made its appearance in about 3500 BC. Since then, the trusty brick has shown amazing resilience and remains one of the mainstays of contemporary architecture. Rooted in tradition in countries as different as China and the Netherlands, it is inexpensive, flexible in use, and can also be ecologically fabricated.
This comprehensive volume tours the world to cover the most exciting and innovative brick buildings of the past 35 years, from Paraguay to New Zealand. True to all TASCHEN architecture tomes, it includes new talents like Sanchit Arora from RENESA as well as established starchitects such as Renzo Piano and Peter Zumthor. Featured buildings showcase the variety of brick applications across cultural, domestic, infrastructure, and leisure spaces, including Tate Modern Switch House in London by Herzog & de Meuron, D'Houndt + Bajart's Boa School Restaurant in Lille-Lomme, and MASS Design's Maternity Waiting Village in Kasungu, Malawi.

Elevated
The most comprehensive and up-to-date book about the vibrant public art program of New York’s global destination, the High Line
The High Line, New York City’s famed elevated rail line-turned-greenway, hosts millions of visitors annually, providing a unique space for encountering art and performance. Elevated surveys the rich, multifaceted offerings of its public art program, High Line Art, presenting works and projects from the last decade by key artists from around the world.
The book features a world-class array of projects by artists including Simone Leigh, Paola Pivi, Sam Durant, Jordan Casteel, Cecilia Vicuna, Sheila Hicks, El Anatsui, Phyllida Barlow, Faith Ringgold, Barbara Kruger, Zoe Leonard, and many others. It documents the creative evolution and vibrant cultural programming of High Line Art, which offers a city-scale canvas for artists and performers to interact with, seen in abundant photographs that chronicle the projects across the passage of seasons in the park.
Through voluminous photographs and unique conversations with the participating artists, as well as essays by key critics such as Julia Bryan-Wilson and Aruna D’Souza, this book surveys the dozens of open-air installations, billboards, murals, video projects, and participatory events that demonstrate the unique and vibrant impact High Line Art has had on both New York City and the art world.
Calling the Shots (Victoria and Albert Museum)
An accessible, inspirational, and engaging introductory survey of LGBTQIA+ photography, as told through the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.
Drawing on one of the oldest and largest photography collections in the world, Calling the Shots offers an unprecedented view of photographic history through a queer lens. It includes a broad range of global LGBTQIA+ representation from the mid-nineteenth century to now, presenting images from pioneering LGBTQIA+ photographers and subjects alongside work documenting activism and hard-won legal battles, over a century of performance, nightlife, and diverse queer communities, collectives, and subcultures.
Following an introductory essay by Zorian Clayton, images are presented in six thematic chapters: Icons, Staged, Body, Liberty, Making a Scene, and Beyond the Frame. Each chapter opens with a short introductory essay, followed by an extended plate section. Expanded captions highlight key images, and "artist in focus" inserts draw on the work of selected photographers to illuminate particularly rich moments in LGBTQIA+ history.
Bold proclamations of queer identity and community sit alongside personal explorations of self; documentation of struggle, joy, and everyday life is considered side-by-side with performances and photographic fictions that continue to challenge the bounds of gender and sexuality. This vital, accessible volume offers an exciting, expansive appraisal of photography's role in expressing, documenting, and celebrating queer life. It will be essential for all with an interest in the history of photography, but especially for those with an interest in LGBTQIA+ history.

Susan Meiselas - Photofile
Best known for her work documenting the political upheaval in Central America during the 1970s and 80s, American photographer Susan Meiselas has been at the forefront of ethical debates around documentary photography for most of her career. Through close engagement with subjects such as war and exploitation, she has interrogated her own relationship to what she's photographing, the circulation and dissemination of these images, and the pivotal questions around social and cultural representation and memory. Her influential contribution to the way audiences approach and engage with photography is as vital and resonant today as it was 40 years ago.
This new addition to the Photofile series also includes short texts by Meiselas herself accompanying each work in the volume.
The Little Book of Art History
An easy and extensive introduction to art history that appeals to both younger and older readers.

With humorous illustrations and texts written in an approachable language, the book provides an overview of both isms, styles, and significant artists not only making the reader better equipped to meet art in real life but also inspiring us to actually seek it out.
The Danish version of The Little Book of Art History was first published in 2014 and has been acclaimed by readers and critics alike. In March 2023 the book was published in its fourth edition, which had been extended with 90 extra pages. The additions were made with focus on broadening the selection of represented artists – in terms of geography, culture and gender – and genres, including performance, street art and video art.
The book is richly illustrated with original drawings by the author himself and also contains a time line of art history from 30,000 BC up until today and a glossary, which are both illustrated.

Vivian Maier - Photofile
With the discovery of her archive in a thrift auction house in 2007, Vivian Maier's posthumous trajectory from relative obscurity to one of the great American photographers of the 20th century is a story of a singular consistent talent. From the mid 1950s throughout her adult life she worked as a nanny between New York and Chicago, and it was during this time that she created a huge body of photographs and films recording every day street life, often including her own self portrait and moments of fleeting reflection within the cityscape. With her work compared to Helen Levitt, Robert Frank and Diane Arbus, her photographs are a fascinating window into American life.
Emojization
A comprehensive and highly visual overview, from the cultural and theoretical background to the amazing variety and everything one needs to know about the creative potential of emojis and how graphic designers can capitalize on this exciting communication trend.
A means of expression for billions of people, emojis have established their function in our everyday lives. Increasingly complex in quality and quantity, these written language companions have long since transcended the realm of written communication to become a pop culture phenomenon of their own. This handbook is a manual and source of inspiration for anyone seeking to understand and use the full potential of emojis in visual communication.
It combines cultural, historical, and theoretical backgrounds with practical application examples. Selected works from recent years demonstrate the formal diversity of emojis and offer inspiration for one’s own work. Specific cases are used to show how emojis can be used in very different ways in the implementation of design tasks and creative projects to thus become part of visual identities.
A Chronology of Art
Most surveys of the history of art come neatly packaged. They are divided up into historic periods, artistic schools and movements, and the careers of individual painters. They may make the subject appear more manageable, but they are oversimplifications. In reality, movements and careers overlapped and intertwined, reacting to events in the world around them.
A Chronology of Art places the genuine developments of the art world into sharp focus. By prioritizing a purely chronological approach and side-stepping the clichés of conventional, academic pigeonholes, it presents an entirely fresh perspective on the subject. The book is structured around a central timeline, which features lavish illustrations of paintings, together with commentaries, and additional information about the social, political and cultural events of the period. The text is divided into four historical sections, becoming more detailed as it nears the present. From 1800 onward, each spread covers a five-year span, which is far more comprehensive than other surveys of this kind. The chronological spreads are interwoven with lively ‘In Focus’ features, highlighting social, stylistic and technical developments.
The Worlds of George RR Martin
In the many realms of modern fantasy there is only one true King, and his name is George Raymond Richard Martin.
With A Song of Ice and Fire, Martin has created a world on a scale almost unrivalled by any other single writer. Approaching two million words and still evolving, this genuinely epic series of novels, with its deeply interlocking narratives, finely crafted drama and enormous range of characters, is a creation of extraordinary breadth.
So how did a writer best known for short stories come to craft such a gigantic sequence of novels, and what is the key to their extraordinary success? What sources – historical, literary and personal – did Martin draw upon in the writing, and what inspiration did they give him?
The Worlds of George R.R. Martin is an in-depth bringing together of the enormous range of inspirations behind Martin’s work – from historical borrowings as wide-ranging as the Roman empire, the Wars of the Roses and the Mongol conquests, to diverse literary and mythological texts, and Martin’s own family experience and biography.
