North American Indian - Edward S. Curtis


At the turn of the century, the American photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis (1868–1952) started on his thirty-year project to produce a monumental study of North American Indians. Using an approach that was both artistically and scientifically ambitious he recorded, in words and pictures, the traces of the traditional Indian way of life that was already beginning to die out.With tireless personal commitment Curtis visited American Indian tribes from the Mexican border to the Bering Straits, gaining their confidence by his patience and sensitivity. This, his photographic life’s work, was printed in 20 volumes between 1907 and 1930 as The North American Indian. There were only 272 copies in total, so original copies are now extremely rare. This book gives lasting life to Curtis’s great achievements by making the photographs available again.

Big Book of Legs


The legendary leg. Gobs of gorgeous gams. The female leg is a sexual oddity. It's non-genital, nearly identical in structure to the corresponding male body part, and there is no obvious reason why it should be eroticized. Yet, through much of history, across many cultures, the female leg was hidden from sight and treated as such a taboo topic that it became an object of intense sexual obsession. In the Victorian era, the word 'leg' was so forbidden that it couldn't be uttered in polite society, lest men be driven wild with lust. Even now, 80 years after women's legs came out of hiding, their allure remains strong. In this third book of Dian Hanson's wildly successful body parts series, she explores how freeing the female leg became central to women's liberation, beginning with the French Revolution and ending with the sexual revolution. Over 400 photos document the first burlesque 'leg shows' of the 1800s, the silk-stockinged flappers of the 1920s, the nylon-mania of the 1940s, the dawn of the stiletto heel in the 1950s, all leading to the golden age of leg magazines in the 1960s. Learn who wore the first high heels, how nylons became a weapon of war, why Betty Grable's were the million dollar legs, where Elmer Batters got his start and just what the deal is with feet, while enjoying great vintage photos by Irving Klaw, Batters, and other great masters of leg art.

Costume History


Originally published in France between 1876 and 1888, Auguste Racinet's Le Costume historique was the most wide-ranging and intelligent study of clothing ever published. Covering the world history of costume, dress, and style from antiquity through the end of the 19th century, the great work—"consolidated" in 1888 into 6 volumes containing nearly 500 plates—remains, to this day, completely unique in its scope and detail. Racinet's organization by culture and subject has been preserved in TASCHEN's magnificent reprint, as have excerpts from his delightful descriptions and often witty comments. Perusing these beautifully detailed and exquisitely colored illustrations, you'll discover everything from the garb of ancient Etruscans to traditional Eskimo attire to 19th century French women's couture. Though Racinet's study spans the globe from ancient times through his own, his focus is on European clothing from the Middle Ages to the 1880s and this subject is treated with exceeding passion and attention to detail. The Costume History is an absolutely invaluable reference for students, designers, artists, illustrators, and historians; it is also an immensely fascinating and inspirational book for anyone with an interest in clothing and style.

Eugéne Delacroix 1798-1863


"Az utolsó nagy reneszánsz mester és az első modern művész" - Baudelaire méltatta e szavakkal Delacroix-t. A költő nem csak azért tartja a festőt a művészettörténet élvonalbeli alakjaival egyenrangúnak, mivel Delacroix romantikushoz méltóan merész és eredeti, hanem mivel a hagyományokat tisztelve mert merész és eredeti lenni. ... Delacroix-ban felismerhető a romantikus életérzés minden tünete. Végletesen individualista lévén mindenekelőtt tudatállapotot, emberi érzelmeket kívánt kifejezni. Míg a klasszicista művész a kompozíció fegyelmezett, gondos kialakítására és pontos kivitelezésre törekedett, addig Delacroix színekkel kísérletezett, és a mozgás egyszerre ösztönös, feszültséggel teli, sőt drámai érzékeltetésére törekedett. Nem a felület aprólékos megmunkálása volt fontos számára, nem a finom színátmenetek, hanem sokkal inkább az éles kontrasztok izgatták, és az erőteljes ecsetvonásokat kedvelte. Csak a múltbéli remekműveken iskolázott nagy művész képes sikeresen elvetni a tanultakat, lefektetni új szabályokat és megmaradni a hagyományos kereten belül. Talán csak az tudja mindezt megtenni, akinek a példaképei szintén szakítottak saját korukkal.

Kubizmus


"Miféle szerzet a kubista? Braque és Picasso iskolájába tartozó festő" - vélekedett egy műkritikus 1911-ben, röviddel azután, hogy megnyílt a Függetlenek Szalonjának botrányos tárlata, ahol a kubisták külön teremben szerepeltek. Georges Braque és Pablo Picasso olyan festészeti irány kezdeményezői voltak, amely a posztimpresszionista Paul Cézanne kijelentéséhez tartotta magát: "A természet valamennyi formáját a gömbre, a kúpra és a hengerre lehet visszavezetni." A kubisták azonban nem egy adott szemszögből örökítették meg motívumaikat, úgy, ahogyan azokat az emberi szem látja, hanem az ábrázolás tárgyát a különböző nézőpontból megjelenő síkokra bontották fel, és a szubjektív látvánnyal ötvözték. Az impresszionisták érzelmes és realisztikus festészete elleni lázadás 1907-ben tört ki a párizsi művészkörökben, és 1914-ben érte el a tetőpontját. E néhány év alatt olyan festmények születtek, amelyek mindörökre átformálták a látásmódunkat.

Dadaizmus


A dadaizmus nem kizárólag művészeti, irodalmi, zenei, politikai vagy filozófiai mozgalom volt. Épp ellenkezőleg, mindez együtt, miközben mindennek az ellenkezője: művészetellenes, provokatívan irodalmi, játékosan zenei, politikailag radikális, ugyanakkor parlamentellenes, és olykor egyszerűen csak gyerekes. A dadaisták többsége ennek szellemében ápolgatta több irányú tehetségét. Előadóművészként cseppet sem voltak kevésbé találékonyak, mint a vizuális technikák terén.

Architecture Now! Bars and Restaurants


he latest architecture and design of restaurants and bars, from L.A. to Tokyo, is the focus of this book. Whether the challenge is merely placing furniture in a simple space, or an ambitious structural project, restaurants and bars are the sites of our most expressive architecture; more ephemeral than larger facilities or entire buildings, they are more apt to capture the mood of the times. From a skyscraper rooftop in Bangkok to a beachfront in Brazil, here are places where design, architecture, food and drink come together in inspiring combinations ranging from minimalist to extravagantly baroque. Designed and conceived like the enormously successful Architecture Now! books, this volume identifies the current trends bringing architecture and design together in new and exciting ways.

Sean Connery


Why is the only non-American winner of the AFI's prestigious Life Achievement Award a Scotsman? Perhaps because Sean Connery's career, though international in scope and global in appeal, made him a "genuine movie star" without any pretensions or pandering to fashion. Indisputably, Connery's incarnation of James Bond catapulted him to stardom and lay the foundation for the most successful franchise in motion picture history. Together Bond and Connery became larger-than-life; but it was Connery, not Bond, whose powerful presence went on to permeate scores of other roles. Connery can be as cool and charismatic as Steve McQueen, as elegant as Cary Grant, or as generous as Frank Sinatra. Said Audrey Hepburn: "There are only two great stars in my recollection who have not been changed by massive success: Lassie and Sean Connery."

Michael Jackson


Arguably the greatest all-round entertainer of his era, Michael Jackson embodied the paradox of extreme fame: a uniquely gifted singer, dancer and songwriter, his extraordinary talents were matched only by the loneliness, eccentricity and ego-mania of his isolated position atop popular culture. This book charts the rise and demise of the self-proclaimed King of Pop. A star from the age of 11, Michael Jackson's unrivalled success spanned five decades beginning with the Jackson 5 in 1968, through a solo Motown career as a teen-idol in the early '70s (while still fronting the Jacksons), and as a remarketed pop genius from the 1980s. While the success of Thriller, the best-selling album in history, owed much to production maestro Quincy Jones, Jackson's abilities as a supreme vocalist, dance provocateur, music video pioneer, songwriter and live performer simply know no equal. As an entertainer he was a perfectionist. Yet his music transcended race, geography, sex, genre, age and color—a remarkable achievement for a shy, troubled boy who never grew up. While his untimely death in June 2009 shook the world, it is Jackson's musical legacy that will endure for generations to come. In this book, the triumph and tragedy of his extraordinary journey is revealed through a unique visual and narrative chronology.
