Claxton Mcqueen 25 Gr


Sharing a passion for fast cars, Steve McQueen (1930-1980) and William Claxton became friends early in McQueens career and remained close until his premature death. Claxton frequented McQueen throughout his many incarnations (daredevil, dirt biker, movie star, sports car driver, ladies man, family man, etc.), capturing at every turn another side of McQueens enigmatic tough-guy/nice-guy personality. As this photo album demonstrates, Claxtons photographic talent and sensibilities were perfectly attuned to the actors multifaceted character. This is the real Steve McQueen, immortalized by Claxtons empathetic lens.

Bloosfeldt 25 Gr


German photography pioneer Karl Blossfeldt (1865-1932) photographed plants so beautifully, and with such originality, that his work transcends the medium itself. Over more than 30 years, he took thousands of photographs, revealing a formally rigorous talent whose precision and dedication bridge the nineteenth and twentieth century worlds of image making and bring a distinctly sculptural aspect to a firmly two-dimensional art form. Beautifully but starkly composed against plain cardboard backgrou nds, Blossfeldt's images, relying on a northern light for their sense of volume, reveal nothing of the man but everything of themselves. They are still-lifes, piercingly final statements on their subject, and have endured owing to their technical bri lliance and the ongoing fascination of students and photographers. Like their maker, they are quietly and lastingly effective.

1000 pin-up girls


"Girls, Gags & Giggles" - this was publisher Robert Harrison's recipe for dishing up the American pin-up to the U.S. male. In the 1950s his girlie magazines sold by the millions, before becoming icons of pulp and trash culture. These skilfully illus trated girls with their curvaceous forms and inviting lingerie soon overtook America's national dessert, in terms of popularity, and even developed considerable potential as a cultural export during the 1940s. "Never show everything," was always the motto. Smiling prettily at the camera, the models exuded just the right amount of sex appeal without seeming too sophisticated or artful. They were the 'girls next door' whose wholesome attraction soon made one forget the magazines' deliberately tras hy presentation. Their rosy complexions and innocent allures still titillate even in an age when far more graphic material is the norm. For everyone who enjoys pin-ups, push-ups and pulp style!

Kubrick Archives 25 Fp


This is the first book to explore Stanley Kubricks archives and the most comprehensive study of the filmmaker to date. In 1968, when Stanley Kubrick was asked to comment on the metaphysical significance of 2001: A Space Odyssey, he replied: "Its no t a message I ever intended to convey in words. 2001 is a nonverbal experience. I tried to create a visual experience, one that bypasses verbalized pigeonholing and directly penetrates the subconscious with an emotional and philosophic content." The philosophy behind Part 1 of The Stanley Kubrick Archives borrows from this line of thinking: from the opening sequence of Killers Kiss to the final frames of Eyes Wide Shut, Kubricks complete films are presented chronologically and wordlessly via frame enlargements. A completely nonverbal experience. The second part of the book brings to life the creative process of Kubricks filmmaking by presenting a remarkable collection of mostly unseen material from his archives, including photographs, props, posters, artwork, set designs, sketches, correspondence, documents, screenplays, drafts, notes, and shooting schedules. Accompanying the visual material are essays by noted Kubrick scholars, articles written by and about Kubrick, and a select ion of Kubricks best interviews.

Bob Dylan


In 2008, Bob Dylan became the first rock artist to win a Pulitzer Prize, for his "profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power." A musician, poet, and celebrated nonconformist of unparallelled stature, Dylan is revered by critics and fans alike as the most influential singer-songwriter in the history of popular music. For over four decades he has inspired folk and rock lovers around the world. His distinct brand of personal philosophy and socio-political comment has metamorphosed through a variety of musical forms, from traditional folk, blues, and country, to gospel and rock and roll, all the while establishing a unique soundtrack to our lives. Setting out in 1961 as a young man with a guitar and a harmonica, this enigmatic artist has grown into an international cultural icon, the tireless author of over 30 albums and a relentless live performer. This concise overview covers Dylan’s entire career via texts and images.

Modigliani 25 Kr


To contemporaries, Amedeo Modigliani was the very definition of Parisian Bohemia, the controversial darling and target of the popular press and the model on which many a novel, play and film was based. As an artist, the scandalous Modigliani made his name chiefly with his celebrated pictures of women, with almond eyes and long necks and bodies. His style had ancient roots that lay deep in classical antiquity or Africa. But his portraits of intellectual giants of the age, friends such as Pablo Picasso, Jean Cocteau or Diego Rivera, were inimitable also. In Doris Krystof's study, the scene Modigliani was the hero of comes alive, and his sensitive paintings and sculptures speak in tongues.

Rothko 25 Kr


Mark Rothko belongs to the generation of American artists who completely revolutionized the essence of abstract painting. His stylistic evolution, from a figurative visual repertoire to an abstract style rooted in the active relationship of the observer to the painting, embodied the radical vision of a renaissance in painting. Rothko characterized this relationship as "a consummated experience between picture and onlooker". His colour formations indeed draw the observer into a space filled with an inner light. Rothko always resisted attempts to interpret his paintings. He was mainly concerned with the viewer's experience, the merging of work and recipient beyond verbal comprehension. Rothko was an intellectual, a thinker, a highly educated man. He loved music and literature and was very involved in philosophy, especially in the works of Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche and of ancient Greek philosophy and mythology. Rothko was a protagonist within the movement of American painters who became known as the Abstract Expressionists. First formed in New York City during the inter-war years, this group was also called the New York School. In all the history of art, they became the first American artists to receive international recognition as a significant movement. Many among them, including Rothko, have become legendary figures.

Herbarium Amoris Floral Romance


The beauty of plants and their sexuality The notion of plant sexuality was initiated by Swedish botanist and physician Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778). Working with his collection of over 20,000 specimens, Linnaeus grouped flowers and plants in a Calendarium Florae, and systematically classified plant species by the number and arrangement of their reproductive parts, drawing direct parallels with human sexual organs. Highly controversial at the time, the assertion that a plant’s stamens and pistils mirror human genitalia resulted in a 'sexual revolution' in plant taxonomy. Swedish photographer Edvard Koinberg creates a modern visual counterpart to Linnaeus’s work, approaching the subject with equal passion and dedication. Having cultivated several hundred plants in his country house, Koinberg photographs each delicate bloom in his studio under perfect lighting conditions, depicting the life cycle of various flora as they bud, flourish and wane, resulting in a modern Calendarium Florae, a visual calendar that charts the year through flowers. In Herbarium Amoris, Koinberg captures the lyricism and refulgent eroticism of the floral word in vivid close-ups, shot against dark backgrounds, the dew glittering on outspread petals, the most delicate of vegetal forms infused with unbridled life force.

Minimalismus


Žiarivka bežne dostupná v obchodoch pripevnená diagonálne na stenu, neopracované drevené trámy alebo kovové dosky, ktoré na zemi vytvárajú nekomplikované obrazce, debny z kovu alebo plexiskla zoradené jednoducho vedľa seba, kocky a iné základné stereometrické útvary z drevotriesky, hliníka alebo ocele – tak by sme mohli charakterizovať diela mnohých umelcov, ktoré vznikli v New Yorku a Los Angeles na začiatku šesťdesiatych rokov. Pre minimalizmus je charakteristické geometrické radenie rovnakých prvkov zbavené akéhokoľvek subjektivizmu. Vznikol v Amerike z väčšej časti ako protiváha abstraktnému expresionizmu a pop-artu. Názov minimalizmus mu dal filozof umenia Richard Wolheim, ktorý sa vo svojom rovnomennom článku z roku 1965 snažil postihnúť všeobecný fenomén v umení 20. storočia : minimalizáciu umeleckého obsahu. Umelecká kritika nakoniec tento termín preniesla na diela Carla Andreho, Dana Flavina, Donalda Judda, Sola LeWitta a Roberta Morrisa. V knihe nájdete projekty nielen týchto, ale aj mnohých ďalších autorov.

Kubismus


„ Kubizmus si kladie plastické ciele. Vidíme v ňom prostriedok k vyjadreniu toho, čo vnímame očami alebo duchom, pri využití všetkých možností, ktoré poskytujú podstatné vlastnosti kresby alebo farby. To sa nám stalo zdrojom nečakanej radosti, zdrojom objavov. „Pablo PicassoKubizmus bol revoltou proti sentimentálnemu a realistickému maliarstvu. Podrobný prehľad najznámejších predstaviteľov tohoto výtvarného štýlu je obsahom ďalšej knihy z populárnej edície.
