Matisse
This lavishly produced volume explores Matisse’s lifelong reinvention of art through some fifty works, six extraordinary fold-out spreads, and illuminating essays.
Providing a unique opportunity to see Matisse’s work at a remarkable scale, this volume echoes the clarity, richness, and innovation of his art. Showcasing dozens of carefully reproduced paintings and cut-outs, the book offers a panoramic view of one of modern art’s most influential figures. Tracing Matisse’s development from early naturalist studies to the luminous intensity of Fauvism and the radical simplicity of his late paper cut-outs, it follows his evolving approach to form, color, and composition.
Brief essays accompany approximately fifty emblematic works, offering new insight into the artist’s changing techniques and the contexts in which he worked. With colored edges, a printed cloth binding, and a design that reflects Matisse’s visual sensibility, the book is as visually compelling in its production as the works it presents.
Six major compositions — including Joy of Life, The Red Studio, The Dance, and The Sorrows of the King — appear as expansive map-style fold-outs, allowing readers to savor their ambition and detail in unprecedented depth. A vivid and layered portrait, this volume invites close attention to the artistic choices that shaped a career of continual reinvention.
Čarokámen
Seznamte se s Lászlem, osmisetletým démonem a nejméně produktivním správcem kleteb v celém Pekle. Ze své kanceláře pod Midtownem dohlíží na Drakefordovu kletbu, která zahrnuje jednu nešťastnou rodinu na severu státu New York a záhadný černý kámen. Sama kletba je nebývale atraktivní – má původ v koloniálních časech a její oběti se mění ve zrůdná monstra –, ale László se nikterak nesnaží maximalizovat její potenciál. Raději se vyvaluje na Ibize, pije jedno martini za druhým a podvádí šejdíře v newyorském metru. V jeho kanceláři však naneštěstí dojde ke změně vedení a Lászlovo zaměstnanecké hodnocení je tak hrozivě špatné, že dostane šest dní na to, aby věci napravil, jinak bude bez milosti roztaven a navrácen zpátky do Primordiálního slizu.
Na scénu vstupuje Maggie Drakefordová, devatenáctiletá nositelka kletby. Za celý svůj život poznala jen ponurý kout Catskillských hor, kde Drakefordova kletba pohltila lidskost jejího otce a rychle začíná usilovat i o tu její. Budoucnost vypadá beznadějně, dokud se před Drakefordovic domem jedné říjnové noci neobjeví László a neoznámí jim, že mají pouhých šest dní na to kletbu zlomit, jinak je bude trýznit až na věky věků.

Sebastiao Salgado - Glaciers
This majestic collection of black-and-white photographs captures the world's great glaciers as both ancient monuments and fragile frontiers in the age of climate change.
In this arresting visual study, Sebastia~o Salgado brings together 65 duotone photographs from his epic project Genesis, offering a visual survey of some of the planet's most remote and ice-bound regions. From the ice fields of Patagonia and the peaks of the Himalayas to the vast shelves of Antarctica and the volcanic flanks of Kamchatka, these images record the forms, textures, and scale of glacial landscapes around the world.
Shot in Salgado's large-format, black-and-white style, the photographs emphasize the physical presence of ice-its ridges, fractures, density, and drift. Light and shadow reveal the structural complexity of each scene, from massive crevasses to the delicate patterns of wind-swept snow.
An essay by climate scientist Elisa Palazzi examines the science of glacier formation, transformation, and decline. Pairing meticulous sequencing with refined design and premium duotone printing, the book offers a focused and enduring portrait of the world's glaciers at a critical moment in their history.

The American Edge
To regain its capacity to effectively deter China and retain its unmatched global status, the United States must deepen its partnership with the nation''s most innovative tech companies. In The American Edge, Seth G. Jones explains how the industrial bases of the world''s great military powers have risen, fallen, and evolved relative to each other over the past century, from Imperial Germany and Japan during World War II, to the United States and Soviet Union during the Cold War, to the recent rise of China. In doing so, Jones reveals how the US is on a trajectory toward failure-a failure to effectively deter major adversaries, and to fight and win a great power war if necessary.China is on a wartime footing. It is rapidly building its defense industrial base to deter and-if deterrence fails-to fight the United States. During periods of wartime, the US defense industrial base has always needed to maximize production capacity, minimize excessive regulations, and provide incentives to the private sector for innovation. Today, though, the US military industrial base is operating on a peacetime footing despite China''s massive military buildup and Russia''s total war in Ukraine. Set in its ways and trapped in outdated procurement systems, it lacks the capacity, responsiveness, flexibility, and surge capability to meet the military requirements to deter China.However, the US does have a tremendously innovative private sector, from companies like SpaceX to Microsoft and Anduril, and this private sector can be leveraged. If the US can regain its capacity to respond flexibly and deter China in the current struggle for global power, it will need to come through the partnership with and utilization of these private companies. Along with providing a deep history of the economic foundations of how America''s ascent to military superpower, this book shows how these innovative firms are helping the US military regain its edge and thereby retain its status as the world''s paramount military force.

The Primacy of Drawing
A definitive and comprehensive study of drawing, now entirely revised.
Drawing has always been an inseparable part of art-making, both as a distinct art form and a crucial step in many other creative visual practice. Yet, its role has faced increasing scrutiny in recent decades. The popularity of readymades, the endless possibilities of new technologies, and the idea of the artist as a performer have shifted attention away from traditional studies or sketches. Deanna Petherbridge's second edition of The Primacy of Drawing invites new perspectives on the practice, which she argues is central to "all aspects of cultural making and thinking."
Petherbridge begins by exploring ancient myths about the origins of drawing, then examines the contrasts between open-ended sketches and highly formalized studies, which together form a drawing continuum?graphic parameters within which artists continue to experiment. She also delves into the economy of drawing?its qualities of line and mark, and analyzes the strategies behind making, composing, and inventing drawn images. The teaching of drawing in academies has led to complex theories on copying, genre hierarchies, and expressive figure drawing. The manner in which satire, sexuality, and play develop compositional strategies reflects Petherbridge’s perspective as a teacher, deeply engaged with the hows and whys of visual thinking.
The Primacy of Drawing serves as both a much-needed history of the practice and a valuable resource for anyone interested in drawing.
