Breaking Stones 1963-1965 A Band on the Brink of Superstardom Edited by Robin Morgan n July 1962, a group of young men played a gig at The Marquee Club on Oxford Street, London. They called themselves ‘The Rollin’ Stones’ and little did they know they would soon be making music history.

This brilliant new book captures the youth, the times and the spirit of The Stones’ formative early years. And documenting 1963-1965 were two young photographers just starting out in their careers. Terry O’Neill, aged just 25, had a few years’ experience photographing musicians and knew that this group had the same magic as another British phenomenon that just recently started to chart, The Beatles. As the band was starting to record and tour, Gered Mankowitz came along. His first shoot, the now famous Mason’s Yard session, was so fruitful, Gered was asked to tag along on tour to America. Gered was a mere 19 when he picked up his camera and joined the band on stage in 1965. Between these two legendary photographers, they document the band’s beginnings and these indelible images are forever placed in music’s consciousness. The photography throughout this book is embellished with various memories and interviews, celebrating the early days and giving an insight into what it must have felt like to go from a small club in Soho with no record deal to touring the world a few years later with a number one record. Terry O’Neill and Gered Mankowitz, two of the most respected, collected and exhibited photographers in the world were sitting in the front-row.

2016 is set to be a huge year for the Rolling Stones, as London’s Saatchi Gallery hosts the first ever major exhibition dedicated to the band: Exhibitionism, a career-spanning, museum-style display of Stones artefacts and memorabilia. ACC Editions’ publication of this book is due to coincide with the opening of this ground-breaking exhibition.

I was impressed by The Stones. They were dressed casually, had mischief in them and were different to other bands. Terry O Neill

Bob Dylan Play Book Illustrations by Matteo Guarnaccia, Text by Giulia Pivetta Beginning with rockabilly, moving on to folk music, sliding over to electric, and falling into a psychedelic phase, like a chameleon Bob Dylan has changed his skin repeatedly over the years, juggling his image with apparent ease and subverting the prevailing social and aesthetic models each time. His Supro guitar and the leather jacket - reminiscent of James Dean; the muse of his hobo period Suze Rotolo and his legendary Triumph Bonneville; the Newport Jazz Festival and the Gaslight Cafe in Greenwich Village: artist Matteo Guarnaccia has documented this pilgrimage of styles stage by stage, year by year, with a wealth of detail. The clothes, faces, music and places of those years become subjects to colour in, paper-dolls to dress, and board games to assemble, while the characters of his songs provide the members of a colourful circus. This is the ultimate collector’s activity-book to be approached with glue, scissors and colouring pencils, dedicated to all the fans of the legendary singersongwriter.

Agnes Martin and Me Donald Woodman One of the outstanding artists of the 20th century, Agnes Martin created ethereal abstractions while living almost as a hermit in New Mexico and issuing Zen-like pronouncements about her art. Photographer Donald Woodman, who shared her property (which he owned) and her life for seven rollercoaster years, takes us behind that legend in this affectionate and respectful, unvarnished and candid account to reveal an exasperating, troubled, earthy, but brave and determined painter. At the heart of the memoir is a surreal journey with Martin down Canada’s Mackenzie River, toward the Arctic, which her “voices” instructed her to undertake. Illustrated by Woodman's photographs, this book adds a crucial dimension to the Martin story and is destined to become a small classic of art biography. Agnes Martin at Tate Modern (through Oct 2015) presents the first comprehensive survey of the seminal artist Agnes Martin. Martin was renowned for her subtle, evocative canvases marked out in pencil grids and pale colour washes. This internationally touring show demonstrates Agnes Martin as one of the pre-eminent painters of the twentieth century and traces her career from early experiments to her final painting from 2004. Agnes Martin is co-curated at Tate Modern by Frances Morris, Director of Collection, International Art and Tiffany Bell, with Dr Lena Fritsch, Assistant Curator, Tate Modern. The exhibition is organised by Tate Modern in collaboration with Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Düsseldorf, Los Angeles County Museum of Art and Solomon R Guggenheim Museum, New York where it will tour throughout 2015 and 2016.

Lumière on The Mona Lisa Hidden Portraits Pascal Cotte Groundbreaking and important new discoveries concerning the Mona Lisa. The Mona Lisa is one of mankind’s great mysteries. With over 9.7 million admirers per year, it is the most legendary painting of all time. No other work has provoked such a desire to know its secrets. Now, after a decade of research, Pascal Cotte has pioneered an extraordinary scientific imagery technique (L.A.M.), that takes us into the heart of the paint-layers of the world’s most famous picture and reveals secrets that have remained hidden for 500 years. This book takes us on a remarkable journey that reveals stage by stage, layer by layer, his remarkable findings. It demonstrates definitively, for the first time, answers to the mysteries that have eluded us for centuries. Who was the lady in the picture? Did Leonardo paint another version? What really lies behind that iconic face? And how did Leonardo achieve that beguiling and seductive smile?
ISBN: 9782954825847 Vinci Editions 305 x 235mm. 205pp. 200 col., 190 b.&w. In print, £29.95 Paperback
There are over 150 brand new discoveries about the painting. A landmark event in the world of art, this book shatters many myths and alters our vision of Leonardo’s masterpiece forever. Pascal Cotte’s findings are the subject of a major BBC documentary and were announced to the world in December.
Lumière on the Lady with an Ermine Unprecedented Discoveries Pascal Cotte This book on The Lady with an Ermine is the first to examine in depth the painting technique of Leonardo da Vinci and reveals the secrets of the creation of his paintings. One key to this work is the unprecedented discovery of a true small ermine hidden beneath the visible animal that we see today. We also discover that the first intention of the Master was to paint a classic portrait - without an animal. Probably at the instigation of the Duke of Milan, Leonardo may have altered its composition and later added an ermine then, unsatisfied, transformed it again. Is it not strange then that in 1493 the first poem that describes this portrait does not mention the ermine, as this is an important element of the painting. Thanks to a revolutionary new technique, Pascal Cotte is able to analyse, layer by layer, all the superpositions of the brushstrokes. It is thus possible to reconstruct the whole story; from plank of wood, through all superimposed layers to the final appearance. Everything is analysed rigorously and methodically. The book also reveals important details about the construction of the painting, the wanderings of the painter, his hesitations, his errors and changes. All these findings were not previously visible using the traditional equipment of laboratories of museums. The author uses a new scientific method of analysis of pictorial works he invented and named L.A.M. for Layer Amplification Method. ISBN: 9782954825816 Vinci Editions 305 x 235mm. 280pp. 288 col.

One Hundred and Fifty Thoughts About Trademarks, Symbols, and Logotypes Design by Thinking Ken Cato
There is often little difference between the communications of corporations within any given industry sector. The reliance for recognition more often is the responsibility of the trademark. This volume gives insight to a method of broader visual language that reduces this reliance and gives more opportunity for corporations to respond to business change, increasing product ranges and gaining higher visibility. This is not about advertising; it’s about utilising existing budgets for a strong, more visible result. Beautifully packaged and designed, and richly illustrated with insightful commentary from an international body of peers, this book harnesses the thinking and philosophies behind some of the world’s most influential practitioners in the visual language fields. In a world where computer graphics provide a more professional finish to both good and bad design, the distinguishing factor is the strength of the core idea. This volume offers 100 observations into pivotal points in creating or developing the ideas that drive corporate and brand identity. This full-colour book will delve into the principles, theory and design processes that help generate movement from the germination of a concept to the genesis of a wellknown and recognisable design of a brand or corporate identity.
This volume profiles 150 trademarks, symbols and logotypes from around the world giving examples in nine categories of origin. Showcased with detailed images and rich, photographic detail, this unique guide illustrates examples from marques based on alphabetical forms, human forms, cultural connections, natural resources, flora and fauna, known forms, built forms, abstract forms and word marks.

The Flying Scotsman Speed, Style and Service Andrew McLean No other train has entered the British national consciousness in the same way as the Flying Scotsman. It has been the star of films, music, dances, literature and even a cocktail - designed at the train’s own cocktail bar in the 1930s. The Flying Scotsman first ran in 1862; it still runs today, passing through incarnations like stations through the years. In its heyday of the 1920s and ‘30s it was seen as the pinnacle of modernity: a stylish, glamorous feat of engineering. Now it is viewed through the heady steam of nostalgia; an iconic image of days gone by.

This book follows the story of the Flying Scotsman in a way that no other history has, expertly weaving together the tale of the locomotive with a wider historical narrative. Furthermore, it delves into the lesser-known stories of the train - such as its sabotage by striking miners in 1926 - and features superb examples of poster art and other publicity materials commissioned by the LNER to promote the service, and documentary photography from the nineteenth century to the present. Written by the current curator of the National Rail Museum, the story of the Flying Scotsman has never been told so well.

111 Places in York That You Shouldn’t Miss Chris Titley What sort of curious place would give its shortest street the longest name? Or build a dazzling gold-lined dome - and hide it from view? The same mixed-up metropolis that was once the capital of England - and also birthplace of its most infamous terrorist. Even if you were the world’s most imaginative storyteller, you couldn’t make York up. The city is stranger than any fiction. But to find its oddities and secrets you’ll need to step off the beaten tourist path and explore its side streets and alleys, known locally as snickelways. Be warned, the journey might throw up a few dark moments, from the Bitchdaughter Tower to the spikes upon which traitors heads were impaled. Yet you’ll also encounter the traces of many local colourful characters, from an Oscarwinning actor to a dastardly plotter, from assorted stone cats to a rather rude ghost. You can browse the shops in the street that inspired Harry Potter’s Diagon Alley and tour remarkable retailers like Duttons For Buttons, and the Banana Warehouse which sells pretty much everything - except bananas; or celebrate in the city that hosted Britain’s first Christmas and is home to Ulph’s Drinking Horn. With 2,000 years of history to discover, there is a surprise around every corner - if you know where to look.

111 Places in Liverpool That You Shouldn’t Miss Julian Treuherz & Peter de Figueiredo Liverpool’s unique history as an international port and a cultural melting pot has given it a character all its own. The city has produced music that conquered the world and is home to more historic buildings than any other British metropolis outside London. It features two magnificent cathedrals and many world famous museums. But beyond its renowned exterior is a labyrinth of places hidden and unknown. This deliciously offbeat guidebook will lead you to a different Liverpool: down tunnels, up skyscrapers, and into secret bars, speciality shops, and disused factories. You will see Balenciaga trainers and football trophies, rolling bridges and disappearing statues, Liver Birds and suitcases, extravagant cakes and cast-iron churches. Explore Britain’s first mosque. Wander a roof garden of wild flowers, where different species bloom each month of the year. Marvel at the world’s most expensive book or largest brick building (27 million bricks!). Relax in a hip tea bar with over 50 varieties of tea (loose leaf, naturally); or visit a place where you can drink Dandelion and Burdock with your fish and chips. Think you know Liverpool? Think again! Whether you’re a first-time tourist, a repeat visitor, or a longtime local, prepare to be charmed and surprised by 111 eccentric and unusual places you’d never expect to find in the city best known for football and the Fab Four.

Shaped by emperors, architects and artists, Paris is a city of splendour, elegance, and romance; cosmopolitan and colourful, its streets pulse with life. This sumptuously illustrated book celebrates its glory on the Grands Boulevards and Champs Elysées, and captures its cultural heartbeat in the artists’ quarter of Montmartre and the Quartier Latin on the Left Bank. To discover Paris is also to experience the finer things in life. The Paris Book dips into superb museums and galleries; visits opulent theatres, grand restaurants and bohemian cafés; browses the city’s flea markets, bookshops and chic boutiques; and cruises along the Seine. As Hemingway said, Paris is “a moveable feast”.
For a landscape, a monument or an urban ensemble to be inscribed in the UNESCO list of World Heritage sites they need to be one thing above all: a part of the legacy of all mankind, the heritage of the world’s population that needs to be protected. To date, more than 1,000 sites, monuments and natural spaces have been inscribed as the “Heritage of Humanity” according to the rules of UNESCO, and benefit from a specially protected status. The compact volume presents all the World Heritage sites with superb photographs. Informative texts provide background information, and maps help to locate each site.
The highest mountains, the longest rivers and the deepest lakes, the strongest and fastest land animals or the oldest plants on Earth - Nature is the greatest and also the most fascinating recordholder on our planet. From the icy arctic zones via deep gorges and high mountain peaks right up to lush tropical rain forests and the driest deserts, all the habitats and vegetation zones are introduced in this great volume. Superb photographs, fascinating texts and numerous ranking tables present the geographical, zoological and botanical records - both for individual continents and for the Earth as a whole. The Great Wonders of Nature is an impressive photography book that allows us to partake of the natural phenomena of our planet in a spectacular manner.

Traveller extraordinaire Michael Clinton has returned with a stunning new series that defines sense of place in some of the world’s most beautiful locations. Choosing the glories of New York’s preeminent summer destination - the Hamptons - as the subject in the first instalment, Clinton captures the essence of beachfront life and infuses it with wonder and joy. In The Snaps Series: The Hamptons, the accomplished photographer uses his unique eye to transform ordinary, everyday moments into insightful and inspiring images. Whether it be a crab hiding in the shadow of the dunes, a farmer’s stand, historic windmill, or the unpeopled curve of the early morning beach, these evocative images invite viewers to contemplate and focus on the small, yet telling moments that create a larger sense of beauty and wonder. This book will appeal to anyone who loves the Hamptons, art, or photography. Melbourne is a stately European-style city that emanates elegance and charm. The city’s laneways are filled with surprises, and the generous parklands and wide boulevards make for an enjoyable afternoon stroll. The city’s vibrant café culture and sartorial splendour add to this European sensibility. Capturing the essence of Melbourne is a challenge. Many of the city’s unique places are difficult to find, often discovered by word of mouth or simply by getting lost. Rather than try and list every great place and every ‘local’, this book focuses on a few of the most fascinating areas and their attractions. This book trails two very successful books in the series, Paris Secrets, ISBN: 9781864703085, and Rome Secrets, ISBN: 9781864705225. This latest volume is a modern guide for the urban aesthete - it’s perfect for those who are already in love with Melbourne, or those planning a memorable first visit - it is both a beautifully illustrated travel resource and a love letter to the city that captures Melbourne’s unique history and atmosphere in spectacular detail.

Irish single pot still whiskey has a romantic mystique for many whiskey critics because of its tragic history as the lost sister of single malt scotch. Ireland’s history and politics resulted in the near-annihilation of the national drink and there's an almost eerie beauty to the silent distilleries that still dot the Irish countryside. These distilleries inform the aesthetic of the title and, indeed, there is visual poetry in the barrels, pot stills and photogenic amber spirits that convey the Irish whiskey world. Although Irish whiskey is currently the fastestgrowing global spirits category and Irish pure pot still has long been a favourite drink among whiskey critics and connoisseurs, the existing literature is still surprisingly sparse. This book illustrates the production, history, and appreciation of Irish pot still whiskey and will introduce casual drinkers to the richness of these whiskeys as well as being a collector’s item for established whiskey connoisseurs. With this book you can compose the best Japanese dishes all by yourself. The Japanese kitchen is healthy, easy to prepare and, above all, very tasty. Ivan Verhelle, the chef from acclaimed Japanese restaurant Tanuki prepares the most delicious sushi, sashimi, soup, tempura dishes, teppanyaki... and explains how you can prepare them yourself. Excellent photography by Kris Vlegels and Japanese calligraphy add a touch of oriental flavour to the layout of the book. Tanuki in Bruges is considered to be the best Japanese restaurant in Belgium. Chef Ivan Verhelle and his sous-chef Akihisa Kawakami are specialists in Japanese cuisine and prepare and serve homemade sashimi, sushi, tempura and teppanyaki.
A weight loss operation is not an end point. It is a starting point for a solution to obesity. And it is not just about losing weight. It is also about restoring the health of obese patients to a normal level. To achieve this, it is important that the patient works together with the medical team during the follow-up period after the surgery, constantly monitoring what he/she does, with the help and support of the people around them. It is for this reason that Professor Kristel De Vogelaere, a specialist in weight loss surgery, has now written this cookbook. It is not another boring diet book, but an inspirational and beautifully illustrated guide to good eating, in which she makes delicious, classic recipes that are ideal for patients after weight loss surgery. In fact, these simple, tasty and healthy dishes are good for everyone: your family and friends will love them as well!

People have been collecting things for centuries. Whether it’s something precious, or simply things that recall childhood memories, collections can turn a hobby into a lifetime obsession. Eclectic Collections looks at a number of great collections: contemporary art, vintage fashion, wallpapers, ceramics, contemporary jewellery, and even rare and fine books. Some collectors have customised their spaces at home to accommodate their collections, while others have transformed their abodes into warehouses. A collector of designer hats even resorted to the bathtub to accommodate her collection. This book not only showcases great collections but draws out the collector’s personality and their ‘hunt’ for the next piece in their extraordinary ‘puzzles,’ each acquisition shedding new light on these impressive collections.
Bart Kiggen and Magali Elali visited florist Mark Colle, interior photographer Martyn Thompson and fashion designer Christian Wijnants among many others. During their visits, the duo photographed these people’s homes, focusing specifically on the presence of plants. The residents discuss their passion for plants, flowers and greenery in the fascinating accompanying text. The book also contains a handy index listing all the plants featured in the photographs, including their specific characteristics.

From time immemorial, outdoor spaces have been essential parts of a house. Today, most homes have outdoor spaces that their owners can use for the activities they find most agreeable and interesting. It is also increasingly common in large cities for skyscrapers to be topped by spectacular roof gardens or adorned with balconies that can be used to escape and forget the hustle and bustle of the metropolis and that add greenery to a grey horizon. This book is a source of inspiration. This book invites you to take a tour around a variety of Zen houses. Whether they are large or small, loud or understated, or designed for an Eastern or Western lifestyle, all have done away with the superfluous and opened themselves up to purity and balance. Located in distinctive locations such as Japan, Bali and Ibiza, the homes within these pages will transport you to a place where life is quieter, simpler and altogether more pleasant, while providing you with plenty of ideas about how to achieve the same within your home.

28 GARDENS & FLORAL DESIGN
Japanese gardens (niwa) are the distinctive Japanese landscape category, which derives from the aesthetic and philosophical ideas in the east, and closely relate to local religious and cultural rituals. Represented by the dry gardens, tea gardens and stroll gardens, Japanese gardens are designed as the miniaturisation and abstraction of natural landscape, taking the naturalistic approach to draw the garden space into certain spiritual fields. Japanese garden design is also open to modern design adaptations. For landscape designers, the study of Japanese gardens provides both classical reviews as research reference and novel landscape elements which could be taken into modern landscape design practice. This book collects remarkable Japanese garden design projects, which might inspire the designers for more discoveries and creations.
Green roofs - the ultimate in sustainable building practices - continue to generate enormous interest and enthusiasm among architects, landscape designers, and urban planners.

The designers of the project case studies are leaders in their fields, and are drawn from across Australia, Chile, China, Europe, Japan, Mexico, Philippines, Scandinavia, Thailand, United Kingdom, United States, and Vietnam. The designers provide details on the benefits of their rooftop gardens, offering readers profound inspiration and informative reviews of the work, design considerations, operation and maintenance. This book is essential for anyone working or studying in the rooftop construction, environmental landscape and design fields.
Floral design is more than simple arrangements of flowers; it is the art integrating design and aesthetics.

In order to give those with a love of floral design a clearer understanding of the art and explore the possibilities, Floral Design not only collects masterpieces from international top florists, but presents interviews with them, gathering indepth interpretations of their experiences, ideas and attitudes to the industry.

This brilliant new book captures the youth, the times and the spirit of The Rolling Stones’ formative early years. Documenting 1963-1965 were two young photographers just starting out in their careers. Terry O’Neill, aged just 25, had a few years’ experience photographing musicians and knew that this group had the same magic as another British phenomenon that just recently started to chart, The Beatles. As the band was starting to record and tour, Gered Mankowitz came along. His first shoot was so fruitful, Gered was asked to tag along on tour to America. Between these two legendary photographers, they document the band’s beginnings and these indelible images are forever placed in music’s consciousness. The photography throughout this book is embellished with various memories and interviews, celebrating the early days and giving an insight into what it must have felt like to go from a small club in Soho with no record deal to touring the world a few years later with a number one record. After the huge success of Martin HM Schreiber’s Madonna Nudes in the 1990s the new edition Madonna Nudes II features many recently discovered and never-before published photos of Madonna, along with a selection of the best images published in Madonna Nudes 1979 edition. This book is a perfect gift not only for Madonna fans, but for lovers of photography too.
The product of a unique, almost 20-year artistic collaboration between two stars in their respective fields, the actor and cultural icon John Malkovich and the photographer Sandro Miller, The Malkovich Sessions represents a profound meeting of the minds. The centrepiece of this stunning book is ‘Homage’, a series of 32 images that recreate the iconic works of photographers whose work inspired and influenced Miller, from Edward Curtis to Diane Arbus to Irving Penn to Annie Leibovitz. Malkovich’s astonishing ability to channel others combines with Miller’s technical mastery to produce images that transcend and amplify the originals, while creating something new and exciting in themselves. Bracketed by Miller’s brilliant portraits of Malkovich as Malkovich, along with still work from a series of short films that the two made together, The Malkovich Sessions is a marvellous record of friendship and inspiration.

HER is a collection of photographic portrayals of women that explores the roles of women in the modern world. Photographer Marjorie Salvaterra creates strikingly beautiful images that make us rethink our expectations of women and our notions of femininity, particularly in light of the drive to achieve perfection, both physically and in terms of accomplishments. Playing with the conventions of fashion photography, art cinema, pop culture, and advertising imagery, Salvaterra has created photographs that are provocative (and often humorous) explorations of the female image. Exploring the beauty and struggle of being a woman today, this is a book that is by turns, surprising, inspiring, and amusing, and one that women of every age will find resonant. Part memoir and part homage, My Elizabeth offers rare insight into a woman adored by millions but truly known to only a few. As a young man, then-unknown photographer Firooz Zahedi fell under Elizabeth Taylor’s spell; they became lifelong friends, and the relationship changed his life. In My Elizabeth, the nowcelebrated Zahedi shares with readers his unforgettable photographs of Elizabeth, presenting a loving tribute in words and images to this iconic Hollywood legend. With a preface from columnist Liz Smith and an introduction from Vanity Fair contributor Bob Colacello.

Like the standard edition of this book (see above), My Elizabeth - Limited Edition is part memoir and part homage to Elizabeth Taylor. This edition is limited to a print run of just 100 copies; each clamshell-boxed book includes a signed and numbered print. This collector’s item is truly a glorious tribute to a woman adored by millions but truly known to just a few.
Published to accompany an exhibition at the Science Museum, London, in spring 2016, this catalogue features 100 high-quality reproductions of Talbot’s work. Through two introductory essays, the book examines how Talbot’s invention of photography in the 1830s, evolved to establish the artistic, scientific and industrial possibilities for photography. Shadow Play is a testament to Talbot’s magical and industrial visions for his invention, that range from the delicate capture of natural specimens to more staged and functional ambitions for photography as means of mass production. It will be of interest to the art enthusiast and general historian of nineteenthcentury innovation, as well as to all those curious to learn more about this pioneer of photography.

Whenever and wherever he encountered them: at work, at home, in public or private moments. This is how a unique collection of the most renowned photographers of the second half of the 20th and the early 21st centuries came about.

El Arenal Dennis Orel, Oliver Kroening “Using their distinctive brand of aerial photography, Oliver Kröning and Dennis Orel turn Mallorca’s sun-worshippers into works of art.” The Sunday Times Magazine 50,000 hotel beds, 50 discos, 15 balnearios and six kilometres of beach - all of this is El Arenal in Mallorca, prompting Oliver Kröning and Dennis Orel to take a closer look at it from a photographic perspective. The result is a continuous view of the popular stretch of beach from a bird’s-eye perspective, with a fascinating wealth of detail from an unusual point of view. Long before the emergence of drones, the award-winning photography duo photographed the beach, with their camera appearing to hover above the masses of people. Technically sophisticated panoramas have been composed of countless individual images. ISBN: 9783899862256 avedition 270 x 305mm. 120pp. 60 col. In print, £32.00 Hardback English, German

Lisl Steiner is a world traveller, she sketches, she is a poet, and a muse to some. At the age of 88 she became a YouTube success with more than 400,000 hits: Society is Kaput & Other Truths From an Ageless Spirit. In this book she gathers her photographs in a kind of retrospective, pictures of Armstrong, Carter, Castro, Davis, Eisenhower, Ellington, JFK, Mailer, Nixon, Pele, B.B. King and Martin Luther King. Her drawings and her life story complement the photographs. Steiner’s account of her life is colourful to the maximum. There are 45 million widows living in India. Not so long ago, in some regions, a widow was expected to die with her dead husband on the pyre. While this is a thing of the past, widows still suffer from severe discrimination for the rest of their lives. Two years ago, Indian social reformer Dr Bindeshwar Pathak decided to face the challenge of counteracting these deep-rooted ideas. In Ghost Street, New Delhi, he opened a house for widows where they may find a new meaning for their lives. In this book multi-award winning artist Alice Smeets interprets traditional tarot cards through the art of photography. The scenes are inspired by the Rider Waite Tarot Deck, designed in 1919, and were recreated with a group of Haitian artists, the Atis Rezistans collective, in the ghettos of Haiti. The traditional symbolism of 78 tarot cards is transformed into timeless images.
Florian Müller photographs fetishists; people who dress up as dogs or let themselves be bound and hung from the ceiling. It is their way of relaxing and achieving fulfilment. At first sight what you see is masquerade; behind the masquerade lurks stories of people and their needs. Florian Müller worked on fetishism in Germany for several years. Sometimes it took weeks before the people trusted him and let him in on their sessions. He did not abuse their trust. His pictures are not revolting, but close, almost tender. Photography Inc., is the comprehensive catalogue based on the FotoMuseum’s Autumn exhibition with the same name, in Antwerp. The book charts the history of photography, from the perspective of the photography industry, with pictures, cameras and albums from the FoMu collection. This book focuses on a number of milestones in the history of photography, and upon the influence companies such as Gevaert, Agfa, Kodak, Polaroid etc. have had on the approach of both amateur and professional photographers. Custodians brings together for the first time images of many of Oxford’s most prestigious buildings along with some rarely seen, but wonderful venues and their ‘Custodians’. Photographer Joanna Vestey set out to explore the extraordinary colleges and buildings of Oxford, behind the closed doors, often beyond the reach of the 9.5 million visitors a year who come here, and to meet the ‘Custodians’ playing a pivotal role in perpetuating these world renowned institutions.

Photo journalism plays an important role in public life: providing accurate, contextualised information through images. When the camera lens focuses on the most harrowing realities, the photographer becomes the link transmitting the subjects’ pain to all other people, thereby in a certain way becoming a spotlight taking some of the darkest sides of humanity out of the shadows. Upfront, both book and exhibition, was created precisely at a time when photo journalists in Spain and Latin America had begun to play an increasingly important role in the world. This book delves further into the work of twenty-three photo reporters from Latin America and Spain, not only the most highly acknowledged, but also others who, though having left behind a more modest mark and theories using more limited means, have helped to keep their colleagues’ commitment and excellence alive.
Iconocracia uses photography to bring together approximately thirty creators of Cuban art from several generations who, despite their wideranging differences in biography, aesthetics and even politics, coincide in challenging what has been assimilated as Cuban photography and disseminated as such.The book is a collection of work by a series of artists who have managed to take in and process iconography with the steadfast goal of building, more than just an image, but a different imagery altogether from their individual positions and particular viewpoints. However, it also explores the very limits of photography as an act: the text by Iván de la Nuez seeks to find a location other than the photographer’s stance, radically stirring up what is usually considered to be a photographic object.
In Los Angeles County there are more than seven million registered vehicles. Everybody knows about highway traffic here. But where do all those cars go to rest? Gerd Ludwig is a night owl and doesn’t need much sleep, so he sometimes goes out at night to photograph sleeping cars. His chosen cars are loners. They command their own space. They are not crowded in with others to have a presence. After a while he recognises their sleeping patterns. The cars in this project are photographed as he finds them. Their covers are like nightgowns, though some sleep in the nude. Some take daytime naps and a few lucky ones get to sleep together. Occasionally proud car owners ask him if he wants them to move or uncover the car for the photograph, but, Ludwig says, “I generally don’t like them to disturb the cars in their sleep”.

Since 2011, award-winning photographer Titus Simoens has been working on a series of pictures of school pupils under strict regimes. His work is divided into three sets: Blue, See shows young people at the IBIS naval college in Ostend. The photo series Mount Song shows students at a Chinese kung fu school. The last part, Los Domadores, is set in a boxing school in Cuba.
Gert Verbelen is a young photographer and designer. For his Master’s project, he visited the mathematically calculated centres of the 18 countries of the Eurozone. Going there, he ended up in the middle of people’s daily lives; he avoided tourism and went to villages where no young people live anymore, because there is no work for them. Verbelens photodocumentary shows a lot of sadness and loneliness, while at the same time, displaying the power of little communities and an affection for the place. Marcel Gautherot (1910-96) is regarded as one of the most significant French photographers. Yet his work is relatively little known and even less published. The most famous part of his work is the body of some 3,000 images documenting the construction of Brasilia 1958-1960. This the first ever comprehensive book on Gautherot’s work as a photographer. The images are complemented by essays on his affinity for modern architecture, his contribution to the history of photography, and on his attachment to Brazil. Indonesia, a country spread over some 17,500 islands; home of the world’s largest fleet of ships and boats; with 252m people. Beat Presser, Swiss-born photographer, travelled the Indonesian archipelago in 2012 and 2014. He went from place to place, from island to island, from adventure to adventure. He took photographs and notes and talked to the local people. From a wealth of experiences and memoirs of his journeys around this vast, astonishing country, Presser has made this unique book . Reginald Van de Velde’s Between Nowhere & Never shows the past splendour of derelict hospitals, mothballed monasteries, defunct power stations, crumbling castles and many other dormant structures. As a devoted traveller, he journeys into forsaken places all over the world, trying to capture the momentum of a fragile abandonment - the result of an intangible desire to explore what mankind has left behind. With the reverb of time as a vantage point, this book will take you on a journey to places that exist between nowhere and never. Ukraine Series by Johanna Diehl shows sensitive, yet unsparing photographs of former synagogues in the territory of what is now Ukraine. Partially destroyed during the German occupation, the buildings were completely repurposed during the Soviet era: as auto repair shops, vinegar factories, clinics, cinemas, sewing workshops, gymnasiums, or KGB prisons. Sometimes, a bricked-up Torah niche, or a historical ceiling mural hint at the richly religious life that blossomed in these spaces for centuries.

Speed, colour, noise, excitement. Art Of The Race, V14 encapsulates the very essence of Formula 1 motor racing through the lens of Darren Heath, one of the sport’s most celebrated photographers. Art Of The Race captures the key moments and rarely seen footage of each race as the season unfolds, whether it’s the epic battle between McLaren teammates Hamilton and Rosberg, or the humbling drivers’ gathering in support of their colleague Jules Bianchi.
Darren Heath has been photographing Formula 1 for over 25 years. For 21 of these years he has worked freelance, and this has given him a unique perspective on the complex and exciting world of Formula 1. Darren Heath’s photography in Art Of The Race encapsulates the very essence of the speed, noise, excitement and colour of Formula 1 racing, whilst also highlighting the key moments of each race as the season unfolds, whether it’s Lewis Hamilton joining the greats of the sport winning his third F1 title, or the emergence of the exciting 17 year old prospect Max Verstappen, the youngest driver to ever start a World Championship race.
In this exquisitely executed paean to the horse, celebrated photographer Bob Tabor celebrates the magnificence of the equine physique and the beauty of the horse’s nature. His images are evocative and intimate, so perfectly presented that we seem to feel the sinewy tension of the animals’ muscles and the sleek satin of their hair. Each photograph is a marvel in itself, arousing awe, tenderness, and sometimes amusement; and every viewing brings us closer to understanding the emotional bond and powerful connection between horse and human.
It did not take long for Les Voiles de St-Barth to become a must-attend event in the Caribbean yachting season. It attracts the best sailors, often involved in the most prestigious international sailing circuits such as the America’s Cup or the Olympics, including Loïck Peyron, Lionel Péan, Bruno Troublé, Ken Read, Peter Holmberg, Cam Lewis and Terry Hutchinson, to name just a few. The fleet has grown bigger year after year, with more and more Maxis and multihulls entering the competition. These big, fast boats are often involved in the other major regattas in the Caribbean.

Over the years since its inception in 1875, Liberty’s has both been at the forefront of fashion and the decorative arts and has sat comfortably riding on its waves. The 1950s were a frugal time and any retailer who promoted modern design was taking a risk. In truth, Liberty & Co. probably played it safe, running its modern products alongside the more traditional ones. It is perhaps for this reason that Liberty & Co. is not so prominent in people’s memories as a ‘modern’ store in the 1950s. In a way this was a period that prepared the business for its flowering in the 1960s. Almost overnight, the emporium of traditional style found itself at the very epicentre of the world of fashion: Carnaby Street in the ‘60s. Allude is one of Germany’s most illustrious labels. Since it was founded in 1993 by Andrea Karg, the company has been a key element in establishing the popularity of cashmere combining it with new designs and reaching out to a new clientele. This exceptional book introduces cashmere with its special history and the handiwork that is involved, using beautiful pictures together with a sound and comprehensive text. In addition, Allude together with the designs and the people behind this label are introduced. It is here that we hear the story of the creative process from design to the finished product, visiting fashion shows in Paris and seeing the development of the label over several years by means of a sumptuous world of images. How do models, sports people, and dancers cope with the pressure of constantly performing and staying at the top of their discipline? What can they teach us and can we achieve the same? Elise Crombez has been at the highest level of modelling for many years now. As an international top model, she has been on 15 Vogue covers, has done about 70 runways per season and was the face of numerous advertising campaigns. She is the perfect person to give an insight into how she shaped her life and career. How can we use what she does and how she does it in our lives? The honest story of Elise gives us the answer. Moreover we get a previously unseen glimpse behind the scenes of the international fashion industry. Which items of clothing should you combine and which should you certainly not? Which piece of clothing should every woman have in her wardrobe? What do you wear when you go out for dinner? How do you spice up your look? In her book, Sofie Valkiers shares her passion for fashion and beauty. She shares with you her absolute must haves, and her online shopping tips and addresses. She even gives away some of her beauty secrets and shows you how you can make your look complete! Sofie Valkiers is Belgium’s best known fashion blogger and stylist. Her blog www.fashionata.com has been nominated several times by the Blog Awards. She also works for magazines and celebrities.

42 ARCHITECTURE
Encompassing two thousand years of building history, The Architecture Reader includes 40 key texts from Alberti, Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier, Gropius, Venturi, Gehry, and many more. The writings address persistent concerns in architecture and design, including the role of the architect and the relationship of architecture to nature, art, and science. The carefully chosen texts provide a taste of the multiplicity that characterises historical and contemporary views of architecture. Krista Sykes organises the selections chronologically and introduces each with a helpful commentary, contextualising the author and the salient issues covered in the piece. The excerpts appear in a variety of formats, including interviews, manifestos, lectures and treatises, and are representative of the varied sometimes conflicting approaches to building and design. In combination, they provide a fascinating overview of significant concepts within the field of architecture. Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) was a master of the knowledge of his time. He drafted The Declaration of Independence (1776), and thus founded a new view of the proper relation between governed and government. Jefferson was the architect of the new America, not just in a political sense, but in a literal sense as well. A self-taught architect, Jefferson buildings are amongst America’s most famous: Monticello, the Virginia State Capitol and the University of Virginia are the starting points of American classical architecture. Jefferson was guided by his admiration for Palladio’s Four Books on Architecture, which provided him with key architectural forms and ideas. Palladio showed him how the admired building types of the ancient Romans could be adapted to modern purposes and provide a rational, harmonious framework for living and for building a new society. From the medieval period to the nineteenth century, Lucca was a rural retreat for the Tuscan aristocracy, the elite manufacturing dynasties who had made their fortunes largely from the silk trade. Seeking to refresh their spirits in the cooler air of the valley, they built magnificent country houses here, mirroring their wealth in the sumptuous beauty and opulence of their villas’ architecture and gardens. Villas of Lucca: The Delights of the Countryside invites readers to explore the wonders of these pleasure palaces for the first time, as Maria Adriana Gusti places the lives of these families and their villas in their historic, artistic and cultural context. Richly illustrated throughout, this is at once a work of scholarly reference and a glorious invitation to discover some of the less familiar treasures of the Tuscan countryside.

This stunning book takes a rare glimpse into the intriguing and unique homes of some of the world’s best-known architects. How do these architects design their own private domains? How do their furnishing styles impact on the structural integrity of the space? How do these individuals express their interior design flair in their own haven? The title starts by introducing the relationship between the architect and their professional work, by telling how that marries with their own private tastes, and how they interpret current trends and enable their own philosophies to transfer to their personal, private environments. Combining rich photography and spectacular imagery with the personal stories of these industry professionals, this book provides a rich source for those keen to delve into the design aesthetics, concepts and innovations of leaders in their very own field.
Monteverdi is a village in val d’Orcia, Tuscany. This book illustrates the extraordinary work of restoration and transformation that has been carried out. This medieval village has been saved from its state of abandon through the care and sensibility by Ilaria Miani, architect and interior designer, who has returned it to its original lovely appearance and supported by Michael L. Cioffi, an American lawyer who fell in love with Bella Italia. This love developed while studying the classics at the University of Notre Dame. Ten years ago he stepped into the village of Castiglioncello del Trinoro in Tuscany. Although the village was dilapidated, he found in her old bones, perched above the rolling fields of Tuscany, the story of a rich history, culture and land. Seduced by this story and propelled by love, he began to restore and preserve the village, giving birth to the vision of Monteverdi, now fully realised, as seen in the pages of this book.
Spaces of Serenity showcases Jeffery S. Poss’ small structures built for contemplation, meditation, and peace. These buildings are exquisite examples of architecture that promotes harmony between the occupant and the outside environment. Jeffery S. Poss, FAIA, is a professor at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He worked with esteemed architecture firms - such as Skidmore Owings & Merrill - before founding his own eponymous firm.

In architecture, a facade is the skin of a building. Eco-Friendly Building Facade demonstrates just how important this ‘skin’ is by illustrating its impact on energy efficiency. Sunlight, ventilation, low energy, noise minimisation, rainwater harvest, prefabricated components, flexibility, etc., all the environmental elements are taken into consideration in the design process and are illustrated here with sufficiently detailed images, drawings and articles.
Upon the release of the 100 of the World’s Tallest Buildings, the first 100 of the world’s tallest buildings will be more than 985 feet (300 metres) for the first time. This book showcases many of the new tall builds across Asia and the Middle East, in particular. Compiled by the CTBUH (Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat), with insightful introductory essays on key trends in the skyscraper typology and by renowned tall buildings expert, Georges Binder, on the history of the world’s tallest buildings by decade, the ambitious text provides descriptions of the buildings’ design and significance. Towering structures are oftentimes the subject of admiration only for their sheer height or skyline silhouette, and oftentimes criticised for their poor environmental performance. This book aims to change that impression by showing innovations that are particular to this group of tall buildings, in addition to generally good architectural design and engineering prowess. More than a description of the best tall buildings from around the world, this volume serves as a global overview of tall building construction and activity in a given year, highlighting some of the big achievements in the tall building field, particularly showing where innovation is happening. The CTBUH’s Awards series draws from the multi-disciplinary expertise of the practitioners directly involved in bringing these buildings to life. This guide is intended for anyone working on the design and operation of tall buildings at both the building and urban scales.
Stylish Living in Small Spaces Edited by Gina Tsarouhas
A combination of difficult economic times, a premium on urban space and the modern trend for living alone means that living in small spaces has become a necessity, as much as a choice. But that needn’t mean living in cramped, unimaginative spaces.
ISBN: 9781864706741 The Images Publishing Group 235 x 235mm. 224pp. 400 col. June 2016, £35.00 Hardback
Stylish Living in Small Spaces shows how the challenges of small floor plans and compact interiors can be overcome with inventive modern design solutions and the innovative use of technology. This is a source of inspiration to those short of space and resources, but with a thirst for ingenuity and style.

Photos by an eclectic group of photographers captures the feel and personality of each coffee shop. The concept of space is often extended from the shop interior to the neighbourhood interweaving coffee, art, architecture, design, and historic preservation. The book showcases coffee shops located in historic buildings, modern architecture, an art museum, an arcade, a courtyard, a former loading dock and even a reclaimed cargo shipping container - but the common thread is an appreciation for great coffee in spaces that invite human interaction and create memories through good design. Engaging and richly illustrated, this book showcases high-calibre international projects that reveal compelling, contemporary and unconventional workspaces, particularly spaces that redefine where we work and how we work together, and which promote new forms of work, flexibility, creativity and collaboration. Combining rich photography with in-depth descriptions and detailed floor plans, this book helps to illustrate architectural innovation and interior design and how these considerations impact on work culture, be it in unique studio locations to modern office skyscrapers, from work nests and industrious modern activity hives, to warehouse lofts and factory refits, or anything inbetween.

46 ARCHITECTURE
Washington, DC-area architect Robert M. Gurney, FAIA, designs ecologically aware modern homes using natural materials and varied construction methods. This book features photography and drawings of more than a dozen of Gurney’s most recent projects. Gurney is dedicated to design of modern, meticulously detailed, thoughtfully ordered residential and commercial projects sensitive to site, program and budget. Materials are employed with honesty, integrity and ecological awareness. This monograph focuses on Enrique Browne, a talented and prolific Chilean architect and co-founder of Browne & Swett Arquitectos. It delves into Browne’s processes, such as developing variations of the grapevinestructure typology to create a green skin as a green wall (or roof ), to protect dwellings from the region’s strong sun; or combining vegetation and its oxygenation benefits with building to counter pollution; or using both artificial and natural light as a ‘material’ for illuminating spaces or volume. Crepain Binst Architecture celebrates its tenth birthday with an overview of the last decade. Everything is architecture. 24/7, discipline determines our lives. That’s the message Luc Binst, the CEO of Crepain Binst Architecture, wants to share. In 2005, he started his own agency, together with Jo Crepain. Ten years and as many as 550 (!) projects later, Luc looks back and ahead with a ‘state of the union’ of architecture. He focuses on themes such as durability and interdisciplinarity. Werner Sobek is one of the leading engineers and structural designers of our time. His works have been awarded numerous distinctions and enjoy worldwide the highest reputation. They all excel through their high level of sophistication and innovation, both with regard to materials and structural systems. This book presents a sample of the most important projects in the fields of design, materials, skins and structures.
As an architect and consulting engineer, Werner Sobek has spent many years creating prize-winning experimental buildings to examine how new materials, structures and technologies can radically change our built environment. The single-family houses he has designed (such as R128, H16, Y1 and B10) have set new benchmarks with regard to both technology and aesthetics. This book presents the most important examples of his work from the last two decades. The Active House B10 is situated in the heart of the famous Weissenhof estate in Stuttgart. It is a research project exploring how innovative materials, constructions and technologies can sustainably improve our built environment. Owing to an ingenious energy concept and self-learning home automation the building produces twice its energy requirement. The surplus thus gained powers two electric cars and an adjacent building. Based on award-winning experimental buildings such as R128, H16, F87 and now B10 Werner Sobek analyses how new materials, structures and technologies can radically change our built environment.

This book is the first to present the entire development of corporate architecture to date, showing the strategies available and the best architectural and design concepts. The book presents milestones of 20th-century corporate architecture and provides photos illustrating the latest trends. This work gives both designers and corporations a point of reference for integrating and transforming the architectural aspect of corporate design in their work. It will appeal not only to an audience interested in architecture but also to corporations with designs on their own buildings, as well as developers and architects, and designers in related fields such as advertising, marketing and visual communication.
Today, well-designed spaces are essential for every company. They have an inside and an outside effect and create interaction between employees and customers. The better they feel, the more emotional the connection to the company and the brand can be. As a result, the importance of corporate interiors as a marketing tool is rapidly increasing. This book on the basics of corporate design shows the most important premises for the conception of interiors and gives a general overview of the topic with more than 100 examples. It contains detailed presentations including plans and projects in the following fields: retail/shop/stores, hotels/gastronomy/ leisure/education, office and manufacturing.
Thanks to their outstanding architecture, visionary exhibitions and important collections corporate museums have evolved into crowd pullers of international renown. The 30 concepts that are presented here range from conventional product shows to themed environments and presentations of art and culture with the company in the role of a patron. This book introduces top-class international projects. Articles by experts from the fields of history management, scenography, marketing and project development give insights into the conception of the content, the implementation of the design and the running of the museum as a business. At the same time, it is a vivid source of inspiration for potential visitors.
The term ‘Media Facades’ is most often associated with screens, animations, illuminations etc. on the front of buildings - often used as advertisements, or to convey messages. The in-depth reference work Media Facades - History, Technology and Content asks vital questions: what developments have there been in the last three years? Which kind of media facade has established itself? How can media facades be integrated into today’s often ‘curvaceous’ architecture and urban landscape? These are just some of the questions that are examined by looking at around 35 examples, supplemented by interviews with early protagonists from this field, scientists, journalists, product developers and many more. New trends, directions and technologies are discussed and the important topic of sustainability is not forgotten either.

Current design modes of student residences are facing challenges of both philosophy and form. Past approaches no longer sustain new demands and require innovative thinking. The need for a new outlook is propelled by fundamental changes that touch upon environmental, economic, and social factors. Thinking innovatively about university accommodation led to the idea to write Innovative Student Residences. The author offers a fascinating insight into contemporary design concepts and illustrates them with outstanding examples, showcased by full-colour photography and detailed plans.
Trade is subject to rapid change at the Point of Sale: the massive growth rates of virtual trading platforms are changing buying patterns in an epochal manner. This is why in recent years significant sums have been invested in sophisticated architecture for supermarkets and shopping centres. This book provides an expert overview of developments in different dimensions of international retail architecture - from innovative supermarkets to new concepts in the trading sector. Expert contributions and interviews provide background knowledge about conception, planning, execution and operation. This book is a practical guide with excellent examples.
High-quality play space design is imperative in helping to attract children and families. Good design is a good investment - poor quality or unimaginative spaces will not be attractive to children; the play space may not be valued by the local community and may fall into disuse and disrepair. This book examines key drivers in best play space designs, showcasing an international range of projects divided into three major case study themes: play spaces in parks, communities and schools, with each case study illuminated by informative narrative text descriptions, and accompanied by rich, full-colour photography, detailed diagrams and illustrations.
Almost all architecture is designed on commission for a client. And the architect’s design must always bend to the wishes or demands of that client. The situation is turned on its head, however, when the architect becomes their own client when building, renovating or redecorating their own home... All of a sudden, the architect has the freedom to give full expression to his/her vision on living and the humble home is transformed into something of a calling card. This book contains many such ‘calling cards’ - extensive reports on lofts, houses, and apartments where Belgian architects live. Each report is accompanied by a text in which the architect expounds his/her own vision on architecture.

Stuttgart-based 4a Architekten have gained much recognition especially for their public swimming pools and spas. Yet the firm, established in 1990 by Matthias Burkart, Eberhard Pritzer, Alexander von Salmuth, and Ernst Ulrich Tillmanns, has also created a formidable body of cultural and educational buildings, hotels, and housing. This new monograph features 17 realised projects. Richly illustrated with images and plans, the book also demonstrates the development of the firm’s architectural language. Two essays take a look at their working process and history. The book is completed with a catalogue of all their built and unrealised projects. Le Corbusier (1887-1965) is one the most influential architects of the 20th century. In the Scandinavian countries, his influence is arguably most pronounced in the writings and art of the Danish experimentalist Asger Jorn (1914-1973). What Moves Us? focuses specifically on the reception of Le Corbusier in Scandinavia, with the relationship between Jorn and Le Corbusier as a thematic thread. The book highlights the architect’s change of direction and his influence on the young artist. The book’s contributors explore the relationships that emerged among their artistic theories and practices, including Jorn’s later critique of Le Corbusier. This highly anticipated new monograph delves into an exciting selection of esteemed works by Delhibased firm Morphogenesis, a world-leader in zero net energy and sustainable design. This richly illustrated book combines stunning imagery with a comprehensive study outlining the firm’s strong philosophical design intent across a vast range of typologies: residential; institutional; commercial; hospitality; offices; houses; interiors; public and master planning. This volume is a superb example of an engaged, highly principled and vibrant emerging architectural practice in Asia that is defining a global architectural brand. Aesthetics and functionality determine the architectural language of the buildings of Alexander Brenner. Following the success of his first book, the multi-award winning architect from Stuttgart is now publishing a second volume with new houses and villas from between 2010 and 2015. The projects described here are illustrated with informative texts and stunning photographs. This is an inspirational book for architects and developers.
Timeless Resorts is the first major monograph of the multidisciplinary design practice Stapati, established by Ar.Tony Joseph. This book examines the evolution of 11 captivating hospitality projects, where Stapati’s philosophy of creating Timeless Architecture, by reinterpreting the vernacular for contemporary living is expounded. The projects spread across India and the Seychelles demonstrate a sensitive understanding of the context and culture, with the site forming the major generator, to develop narratives and experiences that transcend time and place.

This new book presents the results of a unique research project on four significant buildings from the post-war modernist era in Vienna. It offers a fresh view of modernist architecture from today’s perspective. Arranged by keywords derived from the featured projects, Big! Bad? Modern: provides easy access to the rich and comprehensive collection of materials and manifold positions, and opens up new perspectives.
DEMO:POLIS is a sociological and urbanist research undertaking examining what ‘public space’ means today. The project has resulted in this new book. It features a vast range of exemplary public spaces and presents controversial artistic and urban design interventions that demonstrate protests against and criticisms of the status quo. Richly illustrated, it also presents various artistic and scientific approaches and working principles, offering manifold design options for the public space. During the last decade increasing attention has been drawn to Iceland. Its particular geology with around 30 active volcanoes and thousands of the famous geysers also holds substantial energy resources including oil. Consequently Iceland has been increasingly targeted for industrial development. Icelandic Lessons presents the results of the latest research campaign on Iceland by students and faculty of laba, the Basel-based studio affiliated to EPFL’s School of Architecture in Lausanne. ALICE (Atelier de la conception de l’espace) is an educational laboratory affiliated to the Ecole Polytéchnique Fédérale de Lausanne’s (EPFL) School of Architecture. Its objective is to provide students with the first essential tools for the trade of architecture. The Invention of Space explores how space is invented in terms of the various cultural practices involved with spatial design. The book concludes with also exploring the spatial conditions of thought, emotion, fantasy, and imagination. Iñaki Ábalos and Juan Herreros established their studio in Madrid in 1984 and worked together until 2006, when the firm was dissolved. The archive of Ábalos & Herreros was donated to the Canadian Center for Architecture (CCA) in Montreal in 2012. This new book presents three contemporary encounters with the Ábalos & Herreros archive at CCA. The book reframes these research projects, showing archival material in its current state and reinterpreting it. Jan Turnovský (1942-95), born and educated in Prague, emigrated to Austria in 1966 and worked for various architectural firms in Vienna. In 1975 he was appointed as a research and teaching assistant at Technische Universität Wien’s Institute for Architecture and Design. His thinking and intellectual legacy has been influential for an entire generation of younger Austrian architects. This new book presents for the first time Turnovský’s previously unpublished The Weltanschauung as an Ersatz Gestalt as a facsimile-reprint of his illustrated and highly original typo-script.

52 ARCHITECTURE
Urban highways are unique windows from which to grasp a city’s identity. They can however be responsible for the fragmentation of cities and the degradation of their adjacent living environments. As many urban highways are aging, concerns about their redevelopment, upgrading or dismantling are emerging in many cities of the world. By examining the meaning as well as the opportunities offered by urban gateway corridors, the book attempts to offer a unique perspective on issues related this emerging landscape and transportation issue. More specifically, the book aims to describe the innovative approach to landscape infrastructure planning that was used for the YUL-MTL: Moving Landscapes initiative held in Montreal. Nestled in a natural ravine in the Ozark hills, and designed by internationally renowned architect Moshe Safdie, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas is an architectural masterpiece. This book tells the story of the creation of Crystal Bridges: from concept and an early napkin sketch to the engineering feats required to construct an art museum of international stature in the path of a natural waterway. Featuring new colour photography of the museum’s striking architecture paired with quotes from Moshe Safdie, Art in Architecture showcases a fabulous new museum.
Almost one billion people live in conditions that UN-Habitat classifies as slum households. If the UN numbers hold true, approximately two and a half billion urban dwellers will be added by 2050. Many of what UN-Habitat considers slum households are part of self-built neighbourhoods, the result of informal occupation and construction. If two-thirds of our new urbanisation will be largely the result of people building their own homes and neighbourhoods outside of formal planning and processes, and close to one billion people live in these urban situations now this is not a fringe phenomenon of urbanisation. It is mainstream urbanisation, quickly becoming the majority - and thus the chosen title for this collection is Metropolis Nonformal. For nearly three decades, Eric Owen Moss Architects has been at work transforming the former industrial area of the Hayden Tract in Culver City, California into one of the most highly concentrated centres of architectural experimentation in the world. Eric Owen Moss Architects/3585 offers a unique look into the mind and method of one of the most important architects working today through a comprehensive presentation of three schemes designed for a single site in the Hayden Tract since 1991. The book traces the intellectual odyssey of Moss’s forty-year career with a comprehensive presentation of 25-year process that led to his recently completed Cactus Tower and Waffle. A wealth of sketches, drawings, models, renderings, working drawings, and extensive photographic documentation provides valuable insight into the cultural and technical complexities at the heart of Moss’s provocative architecture.

MAPS Design, founded in 1996, is a global design practice led by its principals Tan Hock Beng and Maria Hartati. With offices in Singapore and Bangkok, the firm’s portfolio has always been broad based in its geographic breadth. The firm provides comprehensive architectural and interior design services for many project types, with a keen emphasis in hospitality design. It currently has about 25 high profile hospitality projects ranging from resorts to urban hotels under way in many parts of the world, including Singapore, China, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, The Philippines, Taiwan, Tokyo, India, Middle East, Maldives, Seychelles, Spain, London and Hawaii. The firm works with luxury hotel brands like W, St Regis, Sheraton, Park Hyatt, JW Marriott, Intercontinental and Crowne Plaza. These projects have been widely published in various international journals and exhibited in different countries and venues including Tokyo, Costa Rica, and the prestigious Venice Biennale in Venice. The renowned architecture firm of Mauro Poponcini and Patrick Lootens (representative projects include Artesis Plantijn Hogeschool near Park Spoor Noord, Cadiz in Antwerp’s Eilandje district and the office building near Ghent SintPieters station) celebrates 25 years of architectural practice in this beautifully designed and richly documented publication, in a style that reflects their own: beautifully balanced, clean and contemporary. Their many various achievements are featured in the book, but Mauro Poponcini and Patrick Lootens also take the time to reflect on architecture in conversations with five prominent partners (Filip Canfyn, Bob Van Reeth, Kristiaan Borret, Bart Verschaffel, Henk Visch), about the architectural practice in Flanders and various other themes that they care about.

In addition to Jean Attali and Philippe Samyn’s view on the building phases, this book also includes the overall picture of the project. All the phases of the building process as well as the facilities are dealt with.

54 ARCHITECTURE
Alexandre Clerc, the young Fribourg architect, and his team have already produced a notable number of high-quality buildings: small school buildings, for instance for the school in St-Cierges VD, which is placed with great topographic precision, the exciting ensemble of the vocational school in Domdidier FR and the cleverly conceived extension to the multifunctional hall in Sâles FR.
Since 2009, Jürg Berrel, Maurice Berrel and Raphael Kräutler have managed their own architectural offices based in Zurich and Basel. An outstanding building was created for the vocational school in Vouvry VS, which has a sports hall at its centre. Natural light shines through the ceiling and onto two surrounding walkways. Since then, the team has designed a number of other inventive buildings.
The young Zurich architects Caroline Fiechter and René Salzmann have already enjoyed a number of competition successes, including a school building with a wonderful appearance in Ballwil LU, which was achieved using red-washed timber. Its expression skilfully shifts between appropriate nobility and a warm radiance that is compatible with the world of children.
Gion A. Caminada has produced architectural work in Surselva, Grisons that is unique in being directly determined by the ecological, geographical and structural engineering premises of the location and the lifestyles of its population. The new edition includes the texts and project collection of Cul zuffel e l’aura dado and is extended to include a selection of more recent projects since 2005. In this book, the three Zurich architects Lukas Huggenberger, Adrian Berger and Erika Fries present their high-quality early buildings. Ever since, following a number of competition successes, they have produced several buildings with precise skill, such as the extension to the Cantonal School in Heerbrugg, which smoothly continues the characteristics of the existing buildings and surprises with rich interiors.
Each building by this Geneva-based architectural team is based on a powerful idea that is often developed from the eminently urban location. The idea serves as the basis for sophisticated solutions for major residential developments, commercial and administrative buildings and houses that are often refined into architectural gems with a poetic appearance.

Following Papers and Papers 2, the third volume in the series contains papers written by Jonathan Sergison and Stephen Bates between 2008 and 2014. Illustrated with photographs and drawings, the papers focus on some of the themes that are at the heart of the work of Sergison Bates architects and their approach to architectural practice, such as domesticity, typology and density.
Since his first projects in the 1980s, drawings have always accompanied the architectural work of Peter Märkli. They are patiently recorded images and thoughts that occasionally have an associative relationship with the designs. Often however they are independent, free notes based on inner images. This volume compiles a large number of such drawings. Eight texts by various authors from different cultural fields and an overview of all drawings produced since the beginning complement this remarkable collection.
Buildings by the Geneva architect Pierre-Alain Dupraz always reveal experimental elements, little inventions that are refined to produce an aesthetic overall result. For instance a villa is developed out of a module of prefabricated garage boxes, or a crèche has underground rooms aligned around a large interior courtyard.
In the Upper Valais region, the Lucerne-based Roman Hutter has produced three stringently designed wooden buildings since 2010 that are constructed using a traditional log-building method. Other competition successes that are still in the planning phase evoke rich moods and lead to a precise architectural expression.
The book is not a typical book. It consists of plates that can be opened, one after the other. Each plate is connected to the overall book by the continuous text, to the architect’s drive through the images of an iconographic autobiography, and to his works themselves through photos and rendering. As a book, it is primarily a piece of work in its own right, an image that evokes new images in the viewer. Since the end of the 1990s, Valerio Olgiati has been regarded as one of the most independent and exceptional exponents of Swiss architecture. The book compiles all his important buildings and projects since 1996 - as well as a complete catalogue.

58 DESIGN
There is often little difference between the communications of corporations within any given industry sector. This volume gives insight to a method of broader visual language that reduces this reliance and gives more opportunity for corporations to respond to business change, increasing product ranges and gaining higher visibility. This is not about advertising; it’s about utilising existing budgets for a strong, more visible result.

An art derivative is a kind of cultural and creative product that is derived often from quite famous artworks; the creation of these products is becoming an increasingly popular trend across the art markets, museums and galleries. Art derivatives are generally seen to be an affordable option (when compared to the artwork itself ), easy to purchase, and can often be mass produced, making it easier for the layperson to obtain. It’s not unusual for museums, galleries, designers, and artists to collaborate in designing and developing art derivatives. This highly illustrated book presents some of the most popular art derivatives across the world, including the best-selling products found in wellknown museums, such as MoMA in New York and the V&A in London. Readers are shown how the supply of art objects and products are making a greater reach into the public realm, and how these objects help to enrich people’s lives.

Xavier Lust is certainly one of the most relevant characters on the contemporary design scene. His distinct and essential approach to design, his ingenious and refined touch, and his ability to synthesise clearly imply a special talent. Always focused on innovation and research, he likes to experiment, explore and discover the natural transformations of materials. On the strength of his experience with metal, he confronts all kind of materials, challenging himself too in the process. Design Stories gives a wide sense of Lust’s work in the different fields of design from creation to production to final destination.
Design lives in everything we do. Every interaction and space we experience was designed in some way. Yet, the design of these experiences is too often seen as the exclusive domain of design wizards and secretive geniuses. The ONG&ONG Experience Design Studio believes design is for everyone. Here, they demystify the five-stage method they use for a variety of projects. How did they rethink the banking experience for Gen Y? How did they fuse the traditional and modern in a heritage shophouse? They share their philosophy and the rationale behind specific design decisions because they want to communicate a simple message: you can design too. How do data journalism designers overcome information overload in today’s fast-paced environment, and find simple and compelling methods to convey news content? One of the most effective ways is to use dynamic infographics and data visualisations. This book introduces the history and characteristics of data journalism, describing its classification and the features of journalism published by world-renowned media. It focuses on the design and production of data journalism, explaining the basic elements of design, common design methods and includes showcase designs from the simple to the very complex. This volume helps show how and where to find opportunities to use creative graphics and illustrations, including hand-painted illustrations. Stan Van Steendam’s obsession for street typography prompted him to create the magnificent, acclaimed book, Brussels Type. Now comes the sequel, Reading the Streets, in which Van Steendam travels abroad with the same mission. He likes to intuitively explore cities, using the typography on the city’s streets as his guide - signs with letters that tell a story about the chequered history of these cities. He photographs the typographic fragments he discovers, isolating them from their context. As a result, these sometimes beautiful, at times banal, and often impressive, typographic compositions take on a whole new meaning. The outcome is a series of personal photos, taken with old, analogue cameras that succeed in representing the transitory nature of the city in a heartfelt and provocative manner.

The standard work for contemporary design, latest developments in the industry and state of the art projects shows the best creative campaigns from advertising, marketing and more. Volume 1 features the range of creative achievements in corporate and brand design, packaging design, advertising, annual reports, publishing and print media, posters, typography and illustrations. Volume 2 presents trends from spatial communication, social responsibility, film and animation, sound and game design, the online world, apps and interface design. Additionally, the winners of the titles ‘Red Dot: Brand of the Year’ and ‘Red Dot: Agency of the Year’ are included. A special DVD completes the standard reference for international communication design. The Event Design Yearbook was launched five years ago and on this occasion this year’s volume presents itself in a new look and clear design. As always, the best events in the past year are visualised with striking pictures and informative texts. Small and large events as well as small and large agencies are represented, different but still equal because an idea does not cost anything to start with! And this is about ideas, their implementation and how they are received. The technical possibilities are virtually unlimited: how can they best be implemented and what opportunities do they represent? Theoretical texts on current topical issues frame the Event Design Yearbook 2015/2016.
Two decades of experimental multimedia scenography: illustrated by 30 international award-winning projects, the successful Berlinbased studio Tamschick Media+Space provides an insight into the art of converting contents and objects into a three-dimensional, accessible, holistic experience of space by means of multimedia projections and of creating a lasting dramaturgical experience. Elaborate development processes are presented by means of comprehensive series of images and drafts. Wellknown international authors from the fields of scenography, architecture, museum and brands share their experience in guest contributions.
If all five senses are appealed to in brand communication, then it significantly intensifies the emotional links between the brand and the consumer. Therefore it is no wonder that multisensory aspects play a particularly important role in trade fair presentations. The atmosphere of a trade fair hall can easily lead to a sensory overload. Exhibitors are therefore not only engaged in a product competition, but also in a perceptual competition. In light of this, authors of this year’s trade fair design yearbook have once again brought together the best 60 trade fair stands of the past year and show a cross section of trade fair design that appeals to all the senses.

This full-colour, highly illustrated book focuses on the rich natural landscapes of well-designed wetland parks and botanic gardens. In particular, ecological theme parks are popular with visitors and provide much sought-after areas for relaxation and leisure entertainment. Many of the case studies featured in this book cover the significant roles played by environmental protection and climate regulation, including the importance of science education in this field. Traditional country parks, which originated in the United Kingdom, are very different to the country parks we know today. With the development of urbanisation, city dwellers were no longer satisfied with small urban green spaces, and a new style of country park was born. Country Parks includes detailed case studies showcasing international country park design and provides valuable guidance for professional designers working in the field today.
As we witness the effects of climate change, stormwater management provides an added safeguard that can help mitigate flash flooding. This book provides a toolkit and reference of design projects for city agencies and landscape designers to help them achieve their goals. Offering a detailed guideline with accompanying stormwater management methods, the book is augmented with selected design cases, presented with rich narratives, detailed plans and drawings, and beautiful photography. The idea of a ‘healing garden’ is well established as a specific form of landscape design method; it meets the physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs of the people using the garden. Shown through detailed theory and illustrations, the first part of this book focuses on the concept, types, and design considerations. The second part of the book provides insightful design descriptions, detailed plan drawings and photos showing the final, built projects on a wide range of types of healing gardens. Walking and cycling are a fashionable lifestyle choice - both as a low-impact exercise and a healthy means of travel. There is ever-growing demand for the construction of pedestrian and cyclist paths. This book showcases several exciting design projects across a range of environments, from cities to local communities, urban to larger national parks. It includes an informative design guide and a set of criteria that should provide strong reference materials for professionals and students in related design fields. As the pace of urbanisation accelerates and population and building densities increase, there’s much less park space available for people to enjoy. With less investment outlay and a smaller area required, ‘pocket parks’ could provide the solution for the creation of highly sought-after spaces for activities in high-density city environments. This book studies the characteristics of the pocket park and the relationship between the landscape and people, and it is perfect source material for landscape designers and urban planners.

Public Green Space in the Community refers to the public space that is located in sections of residential land, often a space providing entertainment facilities and a place for the community to interact across various activities. With the rapid development of the urbanisation process, people are paying much more attention to the construction of infrastructure in their living environments, thus the construction of public green space is steadily increasing on a larger scale. The construction of green space not only helps improve the quality of residential living spaces and the level of public welfare, but these spaces also inspire residents’ participation in the community. SMART Landscape is a significant contribution to the conversation on sustainable landscape design, providing energy-efficient models and water-saving landscape ideas. This book shows techniques for creating landscapes that save water, for example by choosing correct planting materials; reducing stormwater run-off through the use of bio-swales, rain gardens and green roofs and walls; reducing water usage in landscapes through best-practice water-wise garden techniques, including irrigation using gray water.
Water as a resource is irreplaceable. Yet heavy rainfall can become an absolute disaster - even in modern cities - if rainwater is not drained out in time. The term “Sponge City” refers to the idea of a city where its urban underground water system operates like a sponge to absorb, store, leak and purify rainwater, and release it for reuse when necessary. The book comprises 41 projects of urban landscape architecture, showing the exploration of the role of water management in urban spatial planning.
Open spaces, sport and outdoor recreation are important components of people’s lives. They provide many cultural, social, economic and environmental benefits and contribute positively to physical and mental health. The primary purpose of sports parks is to provide for organised sports and physical activity. These spaces need to function with a high degree of organisation and should cater for sports uses ranging from junior team training to major competitive events. This book features the newest design projects from around the world, and offers exciting ideas for sports park landscape design. This full-colour, highly illustrated book focuses on the rich natural landscapes of well-designed wetland parks and botanic gardens, which are often strong attractions for a range of tourism and leisure facilities. In particular, ecological theme parks are popular with visitors and provide much sought-after areas for relaxation and leisure entertainment. Many of the case studies featured in this book cover the significant roles that environmental protection and climate regulation play in the creation and maintenance of wetland parks and botanic gardens, including the importance of science education in this field.

Audi Design
Evolution of Form Othmar Wickenheiser Alongside technology, design is the key criterion that decides whether or not a car is regarded as attractive. Throughout its history (and prehistory), Audi AG has always understood how to strike the right balance between these poles. The results have been so harmonious that models bearing the four interlocking rings have always been among the most sought-after cars on the planet. The current automobile design with the single-frame radiator grille is a perfect example of the well-conceived, consistent approach to this model family. The ever-increasing sales figures enjoyed by Audi worldwide are a testament to the value that good, minimalist design has gained in everyday life. It is thus hard to think of a better time to publish the standard reference work on this subject. Over two volumes, Prof. Othmar Wickenheiser, who specialises in the development of car design, explains and analyses the Audi aesthetic in all its aspects. When describing the work of automobile designers, he has the uncanny knack of explaining complex matters using crystal-clear examples, also drawing attention to details that might otherwise go unnoticed. The past, present and future of the marque are seamlessly linked into a fascinating masterpiece that is sure to please a wide audience, not just the fans of Audi design.

The Green Hell 90 Years of Nürburgring Hartmut Lehbrink The Nürburgring race track, located in Nürburg, Germany, is a Grand Prix track, built in 1984, coupled with a much longer ‘North Loop’ track built in the 1920s. Nicknamed ‘The Green Hell’ by Jackie Stewart following his victory in the 1968 Grand Prix, the race track has been a source of endless fascination for anyone involved in or following motorsports - partly because of its history and partly because of the challenge it provides. Notoriously unforgiving and difficult, the track was the location of Niki Lauda’s horrific crash during the 1976 German Grand Prix. The official book of the Nürburgring GmbH jubilee, and published alongside the release of a film, The Green Hell offers an insight into the track that’s never been shown before. Author Hartmut Lehbrink has interviewed race drivers to capture the history and raw emotion of Nürburgring. Beautifully illustrated, this is an absolute must for all those with even just a passing interest in motorsports.

It is a vast world one enters when writing on the statuettes of the Art Deco era: both in terms of the number of artists that contributed to it, and the number of figures they created. This book studies the influences that shaped these artists’ work - namely, the growth of the Ballets Russes under the aegis of Sergei Diaghilev; the fascination in all things Egyptian that followed the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1924; and the Music Hall, with all of its venues, its stars and its glamour. Paris was a magnet for aspiring artists. An unrivalled destination for free-spending tourists, its popularity dwelt in the city’s inexpensiveness, considering the absence of the dollar and the falling value of the franc. A thorough look at its artists and their work can only emerge from long investigation.
Over 23 years ago the first publication of Chiparus: Master of Art Deco brought this artist into the public eye. His name, lost in records and catalogues, was rejuvenated by Alberto Shayo’s rediscovery of his works, effectively bringing artist and oeuvre back to life. This book dwells on the sources and inspiration of the Art Deco movement, with particular emphasis on sculptures created by Demétre Chiparus. However, Chiparus considered himself a painter above a sculptor. In this latest version of the book, many unpublished pictures come to light as well as newly discovered oils and ‘sanguines’, confirming his aptitude in both fields. Contents: The Early Years; Development of the Art Deco Style; The New Woman; Chiparus and the Art Deco Aesthetic; Chryselephantine Sculpture; Notes; Plates; Paintings by Chiparus; Care of Chryselephantine Sculpture; Fakes and Reproductions.

Roland Paris is one of the most recognisable artists of the Art Deco world, yet his work remains something of an enigma. His art is caricature-like, bordering on grotesque, and he delivers critical perspectives on society’s downtrodden via jesters and devils. His mediums range from sculpture and painting to porcelain and wood, including woodcuts and the written word. This never-before-seen study focusses on the artist’s trials and tribulations while living in Nazi-ruled Germany, and the tragic end to his life, hours before the end of World War Two. As one of the top consultants in the Art Deco field, Alberto Shayo has dedicated his life to travel, discovering new figures and determining the worthiness of private and public collections. Mr Shayo is the author of Camille Fauré: Limoges Art Deco Enamels - The Geometry of Joy, published by Antique Collectors’ Club.

Eric Schmitt, born in 1955, makes objects in the grand tradition of the decorative arts. His unique creations of precision and luxury were first shown in the mid-1980s by VIA. Experimenting with the contrast of materials - glass and steel, marble and Corian, slate and parchment - his supple forms manifest a constant tension of one kind or another, whether between thick and thin, transparent and opaque, solid and fragile, dark and coloured, silent and sonorous. With pieces of his mentioned by Bret Easton Ellis in American Psycho, Eric Schmitt has worked with the leading editors in design around the world: Christian Liaigre, as well as the Dutko, Ralph Pucci, Cat-Berro, and IBU galleries, to name a few. Delicate jellyfish and anemones, octopus, tentacled squid, and bizarre-looking soft-bodied sea creatures were meticulously recreated in glass by father and son artists Leopold and Rudolf Blaschka in the late 19th century. The Blaschka invertebrate models were commissioned by universities and museums throughout the world as teaching models for students of natural science and marine life. Illustrated here for the first time with breathtaking new photography are 60 of the most exquisite models from the exceptional collection of Harvard University’s Museum of Comparative Zoology.
With passion and expert insight, Frank Nievergelt compiled an impressive collection over forty-five years of more than 900 pieces of contemporary ceramics, ranging from vessels and sculptures via display pieces to monumental works. Over one hundred leading figures of the international ceramic scene from 1970 to 2015 are represented in the collection, the emphasis of which is on newer objects. In this publication, the most significant pieces of this renowned collection are presented in a selection of fortyone artists, hence impressively highlighting the unaffected beauty and diversity of contemporary ceramic art.
The recently discovered company archive of the glass manufacturer Vetri Decorativi Rag. Aureliano Toso, founded in 1938, is now being made accessible to a wider audience in over 1,500 design drawings for the very first time. Together with the company’s history and a wellresearched list of models, Marc Heiremans successfully reveals the entire artistic production of one of the most significant Muranese manufacturers. Innovative and breathtaking designs by Dino Martens and his successors Enrico Potz and Gino Poli are now able to be clearly identified and dated for the first time ever; this is an indispensable reference book with many previously unknown yet now attributable glass objects in large-format colour illustrations.

American design company Wolf-Gordon celebrates 50 years in business with its first book, a lively and visually stunning compendium of product design (wallcovering and textile design), creative projects, showrooms, and branded materials. Wolf-Gordon: Sample Book features more than 100 product designs (in more than 1,000 colourways); five themed presentations showcasing the astounding breadth of productand communications-related materials developed by Wolf-Gordon; three articles on the company’s design perspective and process; and a fascinating first-person history of the company from its earliest days to the present.
Dust Free Friends is a series of designs for small pieces of domestic furniture, designed by London-based 6a architects, that can be made very simply at home, in restricted spaces, with a small number of tools and without specialist skills. The lightness and simplicity of the pieces is derived from a combination of observation of the way simple plywood constructions on a construction site are adapted to become stools, tables, steps, and stairs, changing quickly and without fuss as workers need them. Beautifully produced and illustrated with some 90 easy-tounderstand diagrams and images, Dust Free Friends is a comprehensive, precise, and entertaining, manual to furnishing a comfortable place entirely by its users. A master furniture maker, designer, sculptor, and educator, Wendell Castle is in his sixth decade of a fruitful and creative career that began in 1958 and that parallels the emergence and growth of the American studio craft movement. The solo exhibition at the Museum of Arts and Design that this book accompanies runs from October 20, 2015 to February 28, 2016. Also available: Wendell Castle: A Catalogue Raisonné, 1958-2012, ISBN: 9780988855700
Victor Chinnery’s scholarly work covers the history and development of furniture in oak and kindred timbers in the British Isles and New England, from the Middle Ages through to 1800. The subject is broken down into a logical sequence of aspects and each section is generously illustrated. The furniture shown ranges from the finest examples of the period, to the sort of sturdy and workmanlike pieces which modern collectors will find affordable. The study of oak furniture is a remarkably rich and varied subject, which reflects at several levels the social and domestic life of many generations of our ancestors. Victor Chinnery has explored and clarified many important topics, whilst fully realising that scholarship in this field is still very much in its infancy.

Gemstones presents a straightforward introduction to gemology, examining diamonds, emeralds, rubies and sapphires as well as over 100 other precious stones. With 1,000 colour photographs, the volume includes full descriptions, technical details, and tips on how to check for fakes. Terms such as refraction, dichroism, and fluorescence are explained and gemologists’ instruments and identification tests are introduced. The volume also includes a handy guide to ‘Gemstones around the World.’
This book presents Van Cleef & Arpels through a selection of 25 words chosen for their emblematic dimension. For each word, a dictionary definition, a lyrical definition by Van Cleef & Arpels, and an artistic interpretation by a friend of the Maison: artists, designers, writers, philosophers, chefs, photographers, poets. Each chapter (savoir faire, femininity, Place Vendôme, enchantment, style) is opened by a poetic theatre in laser cut paper. The book captures a poetic and literary happenstance, telling a story about beauty, about poetry, unleashing creation and unbridling the imaginary realm’s might. The World’s Most Expensive Watches presents some of the most extravagant, intricate, collectable, decadent, or just plain interesting modern-day timepieces that sit at the top of the price spectrum. Starting at a threshold price of about $200,000, it is a trip through the last decade or so of watches whose values soar incredibly to prices of $5 million dollars or more. Additionally, there is a selection of notable watches that yielded extremely high prices at auction - many of which are historically relevant.
Ausgezeichnet! Most Excellent! is a joint project, organised by the Chemnitzer Künstlerbund e. V., the Militärhistorisches Museum der Bundeswehr in Dresden (DE), and the Institute for European Studies of the Technische Universität Chemnitz (DE). It aims to cultivate a relationship between contemporary art and contemporary heroes. The exhibit has invited jewellers, sculptors, and a range of other creatives to present the current attitudes of the public towards those deemed ‘heroic’, channelling their individual interpretations of the topic into their work. This book captures the most eye-catching and inventive exhibits in full-colour photographs. The Pforzheim Jewellery Museum is the world’s only museum in public ownership that is dedicated to jewellery. Its collections comprise originals from five millennia, from prehistoric times to the present day. Highlights include exquisite specimens from Greek and Etruscan antiquity and from the Renaissance and the Baroque periods, as well as outstanding examples of Art Nouveau jewellery plus its unique collection of contemporary art jewellery created since 1960. Two other collections provide important complementary insights into the diversity of jewellery: the Eva and Peter Herion collection of ethnographic jewellery and the Philipp Weber pocket watch collection owned by the Sparkasse Pforzheim Calw savings bank.

The Decorators of the 1960s and 1970s Patrick Favardin, Guy Bloch-Champfort The 1960s and 1970s marked a sharp turning point in the history of decoration and furniture. Until that point, the world was confined to national and elitist forms of expression. At the beginning of the 1960s, the sector took its inspiration from AngloSaxon, Scandinavian, Italian and French decoration. Genres were combined in a frenzied desire to live in symbiosis with one’s time. The progress of technology strengthened the conviction that the individual had unlimited freedom and aroused the desire to inhabit in a new manner. Forms became rounder, furniture was in sync with a warm, playful, and anticonformist universe. Colours and decorative motifs took on the brilliance and fantasies of Pop Art and psychedelia. The living environment was transformed into a waking dream in which luxurious furniture in original materials and surprising objects were mixed, associated, for the first time, with early furniture. The end of the 1970s marked the advent of a period in which beauty and classic elegance gave way to a host of expressions that were unclassifiable and rejected any hierarchy. The postmodern period had arrived. Composed of a long introduction that provides a synoptic view and 32 monographs that describe its many faces, this book invites the reader to discover an exceptionally creative period and reveals through an abundant iconography.

From Invention to Perfection Masterpieces of Eighteenth-Century Decorative Art Edited by Sarah-Katharina Andres-Acevedo, Hans Ottomeyer One hundred masterpieces of European art and arts and crafts of the eighteenth century form a panorama of innovation, design and expert realisation. In their sumptuous design, the porcelain, furniture, bronzes and silver objects are all miracles of the luxury craftsmanship found in court art. Such sophisticated design was the driving force behind the quickly successive styles of classicism, naturalism and the exotic design of the Rococo period. André-Charles Boulle, Jakob Philipp Hackert, Johann Joachim Kaendler, Alexandre-Jean Oppenordt and Jean-Baptiste François Pater are just some of the renowned artists featured in this catalogue. The artworks are opulently presented, interpreted in detail and arranged according to context. Thus the colourful image of a great era in art emerges, one that relied on creative energy and the power of the imagination.

Carpets of Afghanistan is without a doubt one of the most detailed analysis of Afghanistan rug production ever published. Richard Parsons treats the reader not only to a veritable feast of carpets and rugs, all with their attendant tribal origins and motifs vividly explained, but also to a fascinating journey through the history of a diverse and colourful country. The author shares his respect and admiration for Afghanistan’s stoic people, who, somehow, despite political upheavals, forced resettlement, a harsh climate and often primitive nomadic conditions, manage to fashion exquisite works of art which reflect their pride in their many-faceted heritage.
The publication introduces for the first time the extraordinarily rich yet previously unknown British collection of Turkmen tribal carpets, rugs and trappings by Neville Kingston. The exceptional private collection forms the departure point for an exciting account of the development of the Turkmen weaving tradition, which lies at the heart of Eurasian textiles. Thanks to Elena Tsareva’s extensive study of the art of Turkmen carpets in the light of archaeological and historical data, a complex picture of central Asian textiles has emerged. It shows how every epoch has contributed to the fundamentals of carpetweaving and enriched it with new motifs, compositions and techniques.
India has been at the heart of the global trade in textiles since ancient times, and cotton has been at the heart of the Subcontinent’s economy for millennia. Karun Thakar has been collecting textile art for more than 30 years, and has one of the world’s leading private collections. Aspects of the Thakar Collection have been exhibited in the Victoria & Albert Museum in London and at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The Indian dyed and painted cotton cloths in the Thakar Collection are perhaps the best in private hands. Dating from the 15th century onwards, the collection illustrates the trade in textiles across the Indian Ocean with the MalayIndonesian world, with Sri Lanka, Armenia and Europe, as well as within the Indian domestic market. A mystifying group of carpets and tapestries created along the Silk Route over 500 years ago is the topic of this richly illustrated book. The carpets and tapestries with riveting yet puzzling designs have been preserved in closed treasure houses since the 14th to 15th centuries. They are brought out only one day a year for a ShintoBuddhist festival procession and quickly returned to storage. This book is about their shrouded origin in China, the pariahs who wove them, the meaning of their obscure motifs, and the reasons for the secrecy continuing to surround their exhibition. Early Carpets and Tapestries on the Eastern Silk Road is written by Gloria Granz Gonick, Art Historian and Research Associate at The Fowler Museum at UCLA, former Guest Curator for Matsuri Japanese Festival Arts, and former Museum Curator for the Los Angeles Craft and Folk Art Museum.

76 HISTORY
Magdalen College is one of the most beautiful of the Oxford colleges. Founded in 1458, it was built in the extensive grounds of the suppressed Hospital of St John the Baptist (an institution dating from at least 1180), outside the east gate of the medieval city walls. Over the centuries the College has built and rebuilt itself, developing an impressive physical presence, from the Old Kitchen - a remnant of the Hospital - to its late medieval Cloister, Chapel and Hall, the Great Tower, the beautiful eighteenth-century New Building, St Swithun’s Quad, up to the new Library in Longwall Quad, finished in 2016. It is unique in possessing a College Deer Park, and its Muniment Room is a very rare example of a late fifteenth-century space still furnished with its original oak furniture and fittings. Magdalen has a rich and complicated academic, architectural and personal history, which is presented here, along with notes on what visitors can see today.
The stunning seventeenth-century ‘Old Ashmolean Building’ on Broad Street in Oxford houses one of the finest collections of early instruments from Europe and the Islamic world. Together with a fascinating range of material from the eighteenth century to the present day, these artefacts offer an intriguing insight into ingenuity and creativity, and tell amazing stories of human scientific endeavour in a wider cultural and social context. The Director, Silke Ackermann, hand-picks her favourite items and provides an intimate, idiosyncratic guide to a remarkable collection.
Arguably the most famous bridge in the world, Tower Bridge was built in the late nineteenth century and immediately acclaimed as a feat of Victorian engineering. Designed to ease road traffic while maintaining river access, it was constructed with giant moveable roadways that lift up for passing ships. It quickly became known as the ‘Wonder Bridge’. Celebrating this truly iconic London structure, a focal point of the city and the River Thames, this book tells the story of the bridge and its design with a range of stunning historical and contemporary photos. The bridge’s history is brought to life with an array of fascinating facts (around 40,000 people cross the bridge every day) and colourful anecdotes (in 1952 the driver of a double decker bus managed to jump the 3-foot gap when the bridge began to open up as he was halfway over). With a contemporary design and striking cover, this will be the perfect introduction to one of London’s most impressive sights.

No other train has entered the British national consciousness in the same way as the Flying Scotsman. It first ran in 1862; it still runs today, passing through incarnations like stations through the years. This book follows the story of the Flying Scotsman in a way that no other history has, expertly weaving together the tale of the locomotive with a wider historical narrative. Furthermore, it delves into the lesser-known stories of the train - such as its sabotage by striking miners in 1926 - and features superb examples of poster art and other publicity materials commissioned by the LNER to promote the service, and documentary photography from the 19th century to the present. By awarding the European post monopoly to the Thurn & Taxis family 500 years ago, a truly continental postal service was born. Moreover, 1516 also saw the early birth of the Royal Mail. Written by a world class expert, this book brings together storytelling with high quality reproductions of rarely seen objects. The letter in which Emperor Charles V confirms the monopoly of the Thurn & Taxis family; the first transatlantic letter of 1512; the very first postage stamp and envelope… Read all about those and 47 other historical objects in this ambitious book, which covers the entire history of the postal service in Europe from 1516 until the founding of the Universal Postal Union in 1875, as well as important milestones before and after. Due to its strategic location and natural resources Sicily has always been a coveted island. Phoenicians and Greeks were the first to settle; in the following centuries a sequence of rulers invaded Sicily, from Romans and Byzantines, Moors and various European royal houses up to the invasion of the allies in 1943. All those cultures living together effected each other and left their traces. Sicily and the Sea highlights the culture of the island through the ages. Lovers of underwater archaeology, ports, temples, sea battles and shipwrecks are generously served. But Sicily and the Sea is about much more: about Homeric monsters, folklore, modern politics, and the many writers and film directors who were inspired by this island itself. Published to coincide with the centennial of the founding of the USA’s National Park Service, A Thinking Person’s Guide to America’s National Parks is a book for people interested in broadening and deepening their understanding of the full range of, and challenges facing, America’s national parks. This magnificent system includes the iconic western national parks like Yellowstone, Yosemite and the Grand Canyon; urban parks such as Golden Gate National Recreation Area in San Francisco and Gateway National Recreation Area in New York City; historic sites, including the Statue of Liberty National Monument and Gettysburg National Military Park; and cultural sites like New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park. The reader will learn about the vast array of programs offered by the National Park Service and affiliated organisations to educate the public about conservation and restoration.

Gauguin Tales From Paradise Edited by Line Clausen Pedersen and Flemming Friborg Drawing upon a refined selection of over eighty masterpieces, the catalogue and the exhibition it accompanies explore the entire career of the restless French artist Gauguin, analysing the primitive tendency as ideology, as an artistic practice, and lastly as a heritage of vast importance for the development of painting through the entire 20th century. Although Paul Gauguin is known mainly for his Polynesian adventures during the years of his maturity, his search for the “primitive” was actually a lifelong search intended to attain a sole objective: the renewal of figuration and of all its canons. Breton folklore, Provençal mysticism, Danish Bronze Age rites: Gauguin pursued the idea of the primitive in whatever form encountered, bringing together in his works the inspiration taken from real journeys and memories mixed with exotic literature, art, exhibitions and reproductions of non-European works.

Picasso The Great War, Experimentation, and Change Simonetta Fraquelli, Elizabeth Cowling, Kenneth Silver, Dominique H. Vasseur, Ann Bremner Picasso: The Great War, Experimentation, and Change examines the work that Pablo Picasso made in Paris during the tumultuous years of World War I. Focusing on Picasso’s oeuvre from 1912 to 1924, when he utilised both Cubist and classical modes in his art, this fully illustrated catalogue highlights one of the most important periods in the history of modern art. Picasso’s shifts in style became a means of not repeating, in his words, ‘the same vision, the same technique, the same formula.’ With that approach in mind, the book also includes the work of Picasso’s peers and friends, artists who were also exploring themes relevant to the difficult times in which they lived. Published to accompany a major exhibition of the same name at the Barnes Foundation and the Columbus Museum of Art, this elegantly designed book is essential reading for all those interested in Picasso’s work and the dramatic and innovative period of art history during the Great War.

Parmigianino (1503-1540) was among the leading artists of Mannerism, the style that characterised the later years of the Italian High Renaissance and spread throughout Europe, and is known for the exquisite grace and refinement of his art. Heir to Raphael and Correggio he is considered one of the most accomplished draughtsmen of all times. The Louvre has the largest collection of his drawings and the catalogue traces his development as an artist through the analysis of over 60 magnificent drawings. Parmigianino was extremely precocious, and after having absorbed the innovations coming from different artistic centres of Northern Italy (Venice, Ferrara, Cremona, Parma), at only 19 years of age he went to Rome and was presented to the pope. After the sack of Rome, he moved to Bologna and then returned to his hometown, Parma. Never satisfied with the results attained, he drew and sketched continuously leaving us an exceptional legacy. The Mona Lisa is one of mankind’s great mysteries. With over 9.7 million admirers per year, it is the most legendary painting of all time. No other work has provoked such a desire to know its secrets. Now, after a decade of research, Pascal Cotte has pioneered an extraordinary scientific imagery technique (L.A.M.), that takes us into the heart of the paint-layers of the world's most famous picture and reveals secrets that have remained hidden for 500 years. This book takes us on a journey that reveals his remarkable findings. It demonstrates definitively, for the first time, answers to the mysteries that have eluded us for centuries. Who was the lady in the picture? Did Leonardo paint another version? What really lies behind that iconic face? And how did Leonardo achieve that beguiling and seductive smile? There are over 150 brand new discoveries about the painting. A landmark event in the world of art, this book shatters many myths and alters our vision of Leonardo’s masterpiece forever. This book on The Lady with an Ermine is the first to examine in depth the painting technique of Leonardo da Vinci and reveals the secrets of the creation of his paintings. One key to this work is the unprecedented discovery of a true small ermine hidden beneath the visible animal that we see today. We also discover that the first intention of the Master was to paint a classic portrait without an animal. Probably at the instigation of the Duke of Milan, Leonardo may have altered its composition and later added an ermine then, unsatisfied, transformed it again. Thanks to a revolutionary new technique, Pascal Cotte is able to analyse, layer by layer, all the superpositions of the brushstrokes. It is thus possible to reconstruct the whole story; from plank of wood, through all superimposed layers to the final appearance. The book also reveals important details about the construction of the painting, the wanderings of the painter, his hesitations, his errors and changes.

Since his son’s biography, published in 1892, Palmer has been seen as the victim of Victorian materialism, a visionary who sacrificed his talent to the naturalism popular with the middle classes. Palmer was self-taught, and experimented throughout his life with unconventional techniques in his determination to convey the ‘infinity and endless suggestiveness’ of nature. Through a close examination of the works by Palmer in the Ashmolean Museum and other collections, both public and private, and a fresh reading of his letters, many of them unpublished, Samuel Palmer & the Poetical Landscape offers a unique account of the artist’s art and life.
Franz Xaver Winterhalter (1805-1873) was the most renowned portraitist of European aristocracy of his day, expertly capturing the refinement and opulence of his distinguished sitters. Born and trained in Germany, Winterhalter settled in Paris in 1834, where he became the official court painter to King LouisPhilippe. In Paris in 1855, at the pinnacle of his career, he painted the noble portrait Empress Eugénie and Her Ladies-in-Waiting, which would go on to symbolise an entire era. The lavishly illustrated publication complements Winterhalter’s magnificent portraits of crowned heads of state with selected items of clothing by the contemporary and sought-after couturier Charles Frederick Worth. An exceptional woman, Elisabeth Vigée-Lebrun was already a renowned portraitist for the nobility at the age of twenty. From 1777, she became the official painter of the queen Marie Antoinette. Invited in major courts of Europe, she acquired an international reputation. Back in France in 1800, then staying in England and Switzerland, Elisabeth Vigée-Lebrun did not cease to paint until her death in 1845. Her work counts approximately 900 paintings, including more than 660 portraits. This book presents 40 selected masterpieces from the 130 paintings exhibited at the Grand Palais, Paris, from September 2015, then at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York and The National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa. These innovative colouring books, presents masterpieces of the Impressionist movement. On the left-hand page is an image of the masterpiece, while on the right is a large-format picture for you to colour. Included are highly detailed colour palettes, with a complete breakdown of how to mix each shade, ensuring that you get every colour just right. Every picture is annotated with numbers and letters, signifying where each colour should go.

Monet at Giverny Caroline Holmes Claude Monet spent the last 43 years of his life at Giverny, creating the paintings and gardens for which he is overwhelmingly remembered. From the standpoint of his garden, this book considers the controlling intelligence behind both landscape and art, and the natural influences that shaped Monet’s life and vision. It is divided into three sections: The Man, The Garden, and The Paintings. The artist is shown as a consummate plantsman who created his gardens with an Impressionist’s consideration for colour and form, re-interpreting its motifs in paintings of power and abstraction. Drawing upon the voices of Monet and his contemporaries and offering a wealth of horticultural detail, this is a fascinating celebration of a unique artistic mind. Using contemporary correspondence and plant catalogues, with over 150 illustrations including paintings, engravings and garden views from Monet’s lifetime and today’s magnificent recreation, this book provides a visual exploration of the gardens at Giverny where Monet celebrated his passion for painting and the plants that inspired him.

Even if you never have the opportunity the reader, like Monet, can lose themselves in the planted palatte he would have known.
Daubigny, Monet, Van Gogh Impressions of Landscape Michael Clarke, Frances Fowle, Lynne Ambrosini, Maite van Dijk, Nienke Bakker and René Boitelle Charles François Daubigny (1817-1878) was one of the most important French artists of the nineteenth century. Admired by the Impressionists, he routinely painted outdoors, invented new subjects such as the mid-river view, and developed a radically unfinished style. He supported younger artists at the Salon and introduced both Monet and Pissarro to the Paris art dealer Paul Durand-Ruel. In later life he explored a more subjective interpretation of nature in his sunsets and nocturnes, inspiring not only Monet but Vincent van Gogh, who spent the last two months of his life close to Daubigny’s home and studio at Auvers-sur-Oise. These themes and others are explored through a series of essays that examine his interactions with the young impressionists, the market response to his paintings, his pioneering use of a studio boat, the evolution of his highly original technical processes, his role as the leader of an artists’ colony and his importance for Van Gogh.

Ben Uri Gallery and Museum was founded 100 years ago in London’s East End by Russian-Jewish émigré Lazar Berson and likeminded, mostly émigré, artists and craftsmen, who were unable to access the cultural bastions of the British art establishment. From its inception as an Art Society in 1915 to its position today as the only specialist Jewish museum of art in Europe working wholly in the mainstream, Ben Uri’s unique international collection has grown to more than 1,300 artworks across a wide range of subjects and media, created by more than 380 artists, primarily (but not exclusively) of Jewish origin and from 35 countries. The National Museum in Warsaw, one of the largest museums in Poland, is home to a plethora of striking objects: from a collection of Chinese art comprising around 5,000 objects to the Faras Gallery, home to Europe’s largest collection of Nubian Christian art. Polish paintings from the 16th century onwards also feature, hung alongside paintings reclaimed from Nazis. In 2012 the permanent galleries were rehung; paintings are now arranged thematically rather than chronologically. Visitors can compare Italian with Flemish, Polish with German art while wandering through rooms of landscapes, cityscapes, biblical scenes and more. The National Museum, Sultanate of Oman is dedicated to preserving and showcasing the treasures of Oman’s cultural heritage. This official visitor guidebook is being published to mark the opening of the new museum. Illustrated throughout with objects from the collection and texts, it features highlights from all the museum’s galleries, including The Land and the People, Maritime History, Arms and Armour, Civilisation in the Making, Aflaj, Currency, Prehistory and Ancient History, Splendours of Islam, Oman and the World, Intangible Heritage and Oman’s modern Renaissance. Known worldwide for his architecture and interior designs, Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928) was also an extremely gifted painter. Towards the end of his life he gave up his principal career as an architect and moved to the south of France where he devoted himself to painting in watercolour. This book charts Mackintosh’s time in France and explores his career as a landscape painter, placing his work in the context of the modern movement. The forty-four paintings Mackintosh is known to have completed while in France are illustrated.

Sumptuously illustrated with 66 full colour and 6 black-and-white illustrations including paintings, drawings and lithographs from both public and private collections, this publication accompanies Ben Uri’s first major exhibition on Sir William Rothenstein (1872-1945) and his circle. Spanning six decades of British art, it explores Rothenstein’s career and influence within the context of his (mostly younger) contemporaries including Barnett Freedman, Mark Gertler, Eric Kennington, Jacob Kramer, Albert Rutherston and Alfred Wolmark, who were all either directly influenced by or worked alongside him.
Edward Bawden’s (1903-1989) artistic career spanned more than sixty years. During this time he was extraordinarily prolific and produced a considerable body of work, including book illustrations, advertising posters, murals (for ships, boardrooms, colleges and churches), fine paintings, tapestries, and wallpapers. Malcolm Yorke’s incisive biography of Bawden follows Bawden’s career in the context of the social and artistic friendships he cultivated, such as those with Douglas Percy Bliss and, in particular, Eric Ravilious. The book is greatly enhanced by the inclusion of material from Bawden’s personal scrapbooks, allowing the reader an insight into Bawden’s working methods and his final pieces. For much of the period of the 1920s to the 1960s, not only did the BBC dominate broadcasting, but became a major publisher. The publications produced by the BBC, including The Radio Times, carried illustrations - not only on the covers, but on the inner pages too. In the years covered by this book over sixty artists were commissioned for these, such as Edward McKnight Kauffer, Ronald Searle, and Eric Fraser. Throughout this time, the BBC can be bracketed with the likes of Shell and London Transport as a major patron of artists, and, possibly, the one that gave its artists the most freedom to experiment and to exhibit their individual eccentricities.
People, through the ages, have been bombarded with advice, direction or hard selling on ways to keep safe and sound - some of this underpinned by ‘science’, some just common sense, and some sheer quackery. Here’s to Your Health, with its focus on advertising, covers just a sample of such cajoling taking place in the first half of the 20th century - what to eat and drink, what to wear, what to use, how to behave - or not behave. It is a tale of fashionable fads, human suggestibility and social history.

Through a decade of friendship, sharing the same environs and being active collectors, Sonja Graber and Christian Graber are inextricably connected to the photographer Annelies Strba, the jewellery and object artist Bernhard Schobinger and the painter Adrian Schiess. In the collectors, the artists and the Kunsthaus Zug, like-minded people have come together in the most indiscriminate appreciation of fine and applied art. To mark the occasion of the donation of the Graber collections to the museum, the three internationally renowned artists along with hitherto largely unpublished works are now united in one publication. This book grants beautiful insights into the diversity of the collection of treasures held in Leipzig’s GRASSI Museum of Applied Arts. The sequence of illustrations highlights exciting connections, diversions and views between the objects. Chronological records or even the stringent arrangement of the collections and materials play no role here, allowing surprisingly novel qualities, frequently otherwise hidden, to be revealed. In this publication the works meet face to face and present a wonderful survey of the diverse forms of applied art and design.
The exhibition STUDIO examines some of the various readings of the artist’s studio through the work of Norbert Tadeusz (1940-2011), a German artist who frequently made the studio his subject, while at the same time introducing the basic themes and stylistic characteristics of Tadeusz’s oeuvre. A contemporary of internationally recognized artists such as Gerhard Richter, Sigmar Polke, Blinky Palermo, Georg Baselitz, and Jörg Immendorff, Tadeusz was associated with the so-called NeoExpressionist (or New Wild) German figurative painting of the 1980s, though he always resisted categorisation. Over 40 years ago Japanese painter Hiroshi Harada swapped his homeland for Paris, in search of a new artistic creative language and structure. Even though the rectangular doesn’t exist in nature, it has always been Harada’s ultimate ambition to express all facets of his private world within this well-defined shape. Harada stayed true to the monochrome, until one given day a burst of colour appeared in his black and white world; the sparkling yellow is typical in many of his works. The new vibrant colour palette confirmed that Harada has essentially always been looking for a way to give expression to his inner happiness, spirituality and joie de vivre. The Austrian ceramic artist Thomas Bohle is an extraordinary figure in the field of ceramic vessels. His double-walled objects, created at the wheel with technical perfection, effortlessly transcend the boundaries between ceramic and free art. Their interior and exterior forms create an accentuated contrast which opens up an exciting dialogue between the vessel and the space. The publication offers a fascinating overview of over twenty-five years of vessel design by Thomas Bohle. Numerous illustrations of individual objects, group photos and details as well as expert essays uncover the beauty of precise geometry combined with painterly glazes and reveals just how progressive ceramics can be.

Dadaglobe was to be the definitive anthology of the Dada movement. Had it been published in 1921 as planned, it would have constituted more than 100 artworks by some thirty artists from seven countries, showing Dada to be an artistic and literary movement with global reach. Yet mainly due to a lack of funding, it remained unpublished. On the 100th anniversary of the founding of Dada in Zürich, Dadaglobe Reconstructed restores this fascinating literary artefact with reproductions of the artworks received by the Romanian poet and cofounder of the Dada movement Tristan Tzara. Tzara’s call for submissions in four categories - drawings, photographs of artworks, photographic selfportraits, and book layouts - was met not merely with existing works; the parameters for production also served as a catalyst for the creation of many new ones, including some of the Dada movement’s most iconic works. The collection is presented here for the first time, alongside essays examining Tzara’s concept and the history of Dada and Dadaglobe. More than 17 years after her death, Ilse D’Hollander’s oeuvre is still internationally appreciated and frequently exhibited. This book shows her enormous concentration and condensed power. Works in gouache on paper and oils on canvas stand central within D’Hollander’s oeuvre. Given the technique and the smaller format, the works on paper have their own character and a specific intensity, more intimate, more demarcated and concentrated. On paper, a tension is created between the apparent calmness of line and the nuanced use of colour on the one hand, and the unrest inherent to the capricious, irregular division of planes on the other. Order and regularity go hand in hand with doubt and movement. Ilse D’Hollander plays a game of hide and seek. The process of painting leaves its traces. The artist’s brushstrokes and finger sweeps remain clearly visible in the paint, and so make the work at once tangible and personal. Karel Appel: Works on Paper presents the artist’s drawings, which have rarely been exhibited. Appel did not consider his drawings byproducts of painting. In spontaneous creative bursts, he frequently produced works on paper that helped him clarify his art as a whole. Thus, the childlike creatures of the early years, the almost abstract expressive outbursts of the 1950s, and the experiments with collage can be experienced in a completely unique way in his drawings. Karel Appel (1921-2006) is one of the Netherlands’ most outstanding artists. As a cofounder of the CoBrA group, he was part of an international network of avant-garde artists and is regarded as one of the rejuvenators of post1945 art. In the 1950s he began spending long periods of time in Paris and New York and soon enjoyed international success. Today his colourful sculptures can be found in many public squares, and his often large-format paintings are in museums around the world.

As an ‘Englishman in New York’ since 1985, the artist Bill Jacklin has concentrated on painting ‘urban portraits’ of the city in all its guises. As a member of the Royal Academy in London, Jacklin’s paintings have been exhibited at the Marlborough Gallery in London and New York since the 1980s and he has participated in numerous one-man and group exhibitions around the world from the 1970s until today. This first full treatment of Jacklin’s New York paintings is a visual celebration of the artist’s fascination with his adopted New York City, its energy, its light, its movement, and its people. The Foreword is by Sting, an avid collector of Jacklin’s work as well as a fellow ‘Englishman in New York’, who writes on the artist and their relationship with the city. Bo Bartlett is an American realist known for his complex multi-layered narrative paintings. Working in the tradition of realism that stretches from Thomas Eakins and Winslow Homer to Edward Hopper and Andrew Wyeth, Bartlett’s bold narrative approach has made him one of the leading painters of a generation of American artists that redefined realist painting for our time. The exquisitely designed volume is the first full publication to document Bartlett’s evolution as an artist, his personal creative process and to place his work in the context of the longstanding tradition of American realism.
The book contains a review of Patrick Hamilton’s artistic career. Driven by a desire to move painting onto another plain, Hamilton has created a body of work along object- and concept-based lines with a foundation in his interest towards cultural, historical and literary research. Using the starting point of Santiago, the city where he has lived and worked until recently, Hamilton has woven together countless works. The visual metaphors, popular myths and historical events in them are given form in an impeccable conceptual and visual presentation, which he uses to look for answers to all of the questions which arise on a daily basis in the society, of which he forms a part as a citizen and artist. Trained at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-arts de Paris in the atelier of Georges Jeanclos, Elsa Sahal quickly focused on working with ceramics for their sensuality and fragility. She experiments in particular with the idea of volume and balance in sculpture, while returning to an exploration of the themes of the body and femininity. Ambiguous, dense, sensual and colourful, her works oscillate between anthropomorphic landscape and the landscaped body, taking up Cézanne’s dream of uniting women’s curves with the shoulders of hills. Elsa Sahal conceives, kneads and then produces complex and disturbing forms sustained by dense colours and sublimated through enamel.

Armando Romero’s paintings often juxtapose his repainting of historical works by Old Masters like Velazquez, and Veronese with images from popular culture. This practice is typified in series like Las Nuevas Tentaciones De San Antonio (2000) in which he re-paints and re-presents Bosch’s triptych The Temptations of St. Anthony (1501) but in addition to the fantastic imagery typical of Bosch already in the original, Romero adds Tweety, Pokémon, various Looney Tunes and Disney characters, superheroes including Superman, Spiderman, and the Fantastic Four, the Jetsons, Topcat, Penelope Pitstop, the Flintstones, Smurfs, and Scooby-Doo. This book showcases the sculptural project by Cristina Iglesias entitled Tres aguas, a trilogy spanning all of Toledo to highlight the relationship between the city and its river, the Tagus. Beginning on the river banks at the Torre del Agua, then going up as far as the Plaza del Ayuntamiento, the project reached the highest point in the city, where the third installation was put in place at the Santa Clara convent. The book shows one of the largest works of contemporary sculpture, a major expression of architecture and sculpture along with riveting texts by Beatriz Colomina, James Lingwood and Maria Warner, and amazing photographs by Attilio Maranzano. The artist Fritzia Irízar questions the value of money and its purchasing power through objects taken out of their common environment which take on symbolic qualities. Irízar removes their monetary value and transforms the perception that viewers have of them.
This book is a review of two decades in the career of eminent sculptor Javier Marín, providing an exceptional opportunity to analyse the variety of his work, including pieces that bear witness to his technical mastery and the aesthetic qualities and creativity which distinguish his sculptural works. With its very high-quality images, this edition gives readers the chance to experience each of the textures in his works, which re-interpret and show a different dimension of the aesthetics of human anatomy, as a way of revealing many details, faces, busts, figures and fragments therein. Javier Marín (Michoacán, 1962) is a Mexican visual artist, known mainly for his sculptural work involving the topic of the human figure and for his aesthetic exploration in both the field of fine arts and in the world of decorative arts. He studied visual arts at the UNAM’s Academia de San Carlos in Mexico and held an individual exhibition for the first time ever in 1990. This book, in the form of a documentary testimony, accompanies the exhibition Javier Marín Terra presented at the Palace of Iturbide in 2015.

Over 15 years, Nicolas Provost fundamentally changed video art. Nicolas Provost: Dream Machine is the first overview of his work and a visually challenging book, with texts by big names, such as Neville Wakefield and Leo Goldsmith. Nicolas Provost calls himself a sculptor with film, or a creator of images and sounds. With films like The Plot Point Trilogy and The Invader, Nicolas Provost has built an impressive oeuvre. This book talks about his journey through the world of video art and films, but it is also a visual discovery on its own. The book features stills from Provost’s movies, images of his video equipment, fragments from dialogues, and texts by a number of internationallyrenowned authors. From taboo to embarrassment, from prudishness to awkwardness, from blushing to guilty pleasures. This book, and the corresponding exhibition at The Museum Dr. Guislain in Ghent, focuses on the feeling that is omnipresent but difficult to comprehend. ‘Shame,’ you may feel it when you’ve said something inappropriate, or you may feel it as a result of a physical imperfection, as a result of poverty, or even psychological problems. With objects from other cultures, historical psychiatry documents, testimonies, essays and illustrations, the exhibition and the book approach the feeling from many different angles. Contemporary artists categorise the feeling in paintings, sculptures, photography and video. “Belgian solutions is first of all a title, that became a way of speaking: ‘Look, a Belgian solution.’ It all started with me stopping to take pictures of situations that I later began publishing on Facebook under this title.” David Helbich Not every solution is an answer to a problem. The Brussels-based artist David Helbich started collecting ‘Belgian Solutions’ in 2006. Once he started to share his photos online on Facebook in 2008 (the Belgian Solutions page has over 23,000 fans), the project gathered speed, with contributions by Belgian Solutions spotters all over the world. Luster is publishing the third, updated and improved edition of the original publication.
Architecture and perspective are the common denominators in the oeuvre of Hans Vandekerckhove. Gimme Shelter illustrates 90 of his paintings. Both at home and abroad, Hans Vandekerckhove has been a big name in the art world for quite some time. He has had (solo) expositions in the SMAK museum in Ghent, and the Mu.Zee museum in Ostend, as well as in Amsterdam, Madrid and Frankfurt. In Gimme Shelter, Hans has compiled all of his work, which originated from his passion for architecture, ranging from the archetypes from his youth, when he had a studio in his uncle’s greenhouse, modern architecture by Mies van de Rohe, and the buildings by Peter Zumthor, to the need of a ‘home’, as a breeding ground for inspiration.
Amadeo Modigliani The Inner Eye Sophie Levy, Jeanne-Bathilde Lacourt and Marie-Amélie Senot (Ed.)r Amadeo Modigliani: The Inner Eye displays the dialogue that the young Italian artist maintained with antic and extra-Western sculptures from 1910 to 1914. It specifically highlights studies of heads and caryatides, and Modigliano’s patient analysis work, such as modulating facial features. Health and financial conditions forced Modigliani to renounce sculpture in 1914. The second part of the book features portraits of Modigliani’s friends, as well as actors of the Parisian avant-garde from Picasso’s circle, such as the writer Max Jacob, the merchant Paul Guillaume, Moïse Kisling, Viking Eggeling, Jacques Lipchitz, Henri Laurens and Lépold Survage. Beyond friendship, these portraits reveal artistic exchanges, where painters and sculptors became Modigliani’s models. In his last years, Modigliani perfected his portrait’s style, which made him successful: the frame widens, his palette lightens under the influence of Cézanne. In 1918, he met Dutilleul, who purchased around thirty of his paintings and numerous drawings between 1918 and 1946 and posed as his model in 1919. This book accompanies exhibitions at LaM, villeneuve d’ascq, February 27th to June 5th 2016; Hungarian National Gallery, Budapest, June 28th to October 2nd 2016; Ateneum Museum of Art, Helsinki, 28th October 2016 to February 5th 2017.

Paperworld Guy Leclef In his work, Guy Leclef always aims to find the essence, purity and simplicity of things. His signature eye for detail turns his art with paper into an experience. You could even refer to it as poetic recycling. At the same time, his paper collages always contain a fair amount of humour, hinting at everyday life. Pieces of paper used as paint, thick or paper-thin strokes, queer, impregnated, cut and glued. They’re all used as the raw materials for Leclef ’s art. A rich and varied oeuvre, in spite of - or thanks to - him using paper waste as the building blocks of this sparkling art. Paper, used as paint, to express life’s emotions, but Guy Leclef manages to continuously catch your eye with his playful virtuosity. At first, Guy Leclef studied gemology, the science dealing with natural and artificial gemstones. Via the diamond business and decorative paint techniques, with which he painted decors for expositions and founded a successful company, he eventually ended up in the world of paper.

Adolf Dietrich’s (1877-1957) work is regarded by some as a prime example of 20th-century naïve painting, while other scholars place him closer to the post-expressionist movement of New Objectivity. For the first time in nearly sixty years, Dietrich’s work has been shown in a vast retrospective at Kunstmuseum Olten in Switzerland, in summer 2015 in which his pictures were accompanied by paintings of artists such as Cuno Amiet, Otto Dix, Giovanni Giacometti, Ferdinand Hodler, Henri Rousseau, or Félix Vallotton. This coinciding new monograph is richly illustrated in colour throughout, featuring some 160 works by Dietrich and the other artists. The essays contextualise his art and highlight Dietrichs’ lasting significance. Alain Huck, born 1957, lives and works in francophone Switzerland. He has created a body of polymorphous works in a variety of media: painting, photography, drawing, video, often using text as well. In 2006 Huck started to work on an extensive series of very large-scale charcoal drawings, titled Salons noirs. This corpus now comprises nearly 80 compositions. This new book presents the entire series, completed by a selection of other recent works by Alain Huck. Julie Enckell Julliard’s essay examines the ‘Salons noirs’ and suggests ways of approaching them, and also refers to the various relations of Huck’s work to that of other artists, such as Albrecht Dürer, Arnold Böcklin, Robert Longo, or Gerhard Richter. Swiss artist El (Elisa) Frauenfelder, was born in 1979 in Zürich. Her work in painting and drawing often shows snap-shots of empty landscapes, townscapes, houses, or interiors. She carries her camera wherever she travels, in the plains of South Dakota, in Helsinki, or in the Swiss countryside, always capturing new motifs for her art. Sometimes sombre and dark-hued, sometimes gaudy and lurid, Frauenfelder’s pictures captivate the viewer’s eye with colours, shapes, and motifs despite their sketchy, open manner. El Frauenfelder has been awarded the 2015 Manor Art Prize in Switzerland. The new book is published in conjunction with an exhibition at Kunstmuseum Winterthur in fall 2015. Stuttgart-based 4a Architekten have gained much recognition for their public swimming pools and spas. Yet the firm, established in 1990 by Matthias Burkart, Eberhard Pritzer, Alexander von Salmuth, and Ernst Ulrich Tillmanns, has also created a formidable work of cultural and educational buildings, hotels, and housing. This new monograph features seventeen realised projects that are exemplary for 4a Architekten’s approach and vision. The selection also reflects the range of building tasks they cover. Richly illustrated with images and plans, the book also demonstrates the development of the firm’s architectural language. Two essays take a look at their working process and history, alongside three shorter and more literary texts. The book is completed with a catalogue of all their built and unrealised projects.

At the 2014 International Architecture Exhibition of the Venice Biennale, Hans Ulrich Obrist, curator of the Swiss pavilion, realised a display and a series of events referring to Lucius Burckhardt (1925-2003). In the 1980s, Burckhardt had proposed the concept of a science of Strollology, based on his view that only by strolling we truly perceive our environment. Twelve Swiss artists were commissioned to explore the exhibit in Venice and to develop the art project Invent the Future with Elements of the Past in Zürich, for which Burckhardt once again proved inspirational. This new book documents the project, featuring original contributions, inserts, texts, images, and interviews by the participating artists. Peter Liechti (1951-2014) was a Swiss film author and director, cinematographer, and producer. His last and unfinished project Dedications he began when he was already suffering from a terminal illness. Originally intended to become a trilogy dedicated to the Swiss writer Robert Walser (1878-1956), the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh (1853-1880), and to the unknown Sudanese Chief, the progress of his illness made him alter his concept to a very personal review and reflection on his life’s most significant personal and artistic impressions and moments. Liechti’s widow and working partner Jolanda Gsponer, together with a group of his former collaborators, has assembled all the material of Dedications in three parts to preserve it and make the work visible. Colour and light as sensory stimulus and the phenomenon of light encountering surfaces are core elements of the work of artists Silvia Gertsch, born in Switzerland in 1963, and the German Xerxes Ach, born in 1957. Gertsch works on reverse-glass, using snapshots of young people in summer. Ach has turned to micro-phenomena in which light encounters various materials, is refracted in various ways, and generates abstract visual compositions. Coinciding with a dual exhibition of Silvia Gertsch and Xerxes Ach at the Museum of Fine Arts Bern, this new book features their work from two decades. Richly illustrated, it puts their differing pictorial languages in a dancelike dialogue, revealing each artist’s relation to current artistic discourses. Vaclav Pozarek, born 1940 in former Czechoslovakia, is regarded as one of the most significant figures in contemporary Swiss art. After his emigration in 1968 he did his artistic education at Hamburg’s University of Fine Arts and at St. Martins’s School of Art in London. He has been living and working in Bern since 1973, creating a much-recognised oeuvre, mainly in drawing and sculpture. This new monograph, published to coincide with a solo exhibition at the Kunstmuseum Solothurn and designed by Pozarek himself, offers a survey of his drawings, sculptures and installations from the past ten years. The essays explore his work and discuss his recent exhibitions.

Aided by the extensive private collection of the Fondation CL Tibet, this richly illustrated volume provides an outstanding review of several hundred years of Buddhist art from the Himalayan region. More than 200 representative works and ritual objects - including metal statues of Buddhas, bodhisattvas, and other deities; thangkas (scrolls) and chörten (or stupas) and ornately carved book covers and Tibetan musical instruments - are both presented and described in detail against a background of iconography and art history. It also focuses in particular on the guru Rinpoche Padmasambhava, who is considered the founder of Buddhism in Tibet. For the first time in 25 years, Michael Henss presents a new and comprehensive overview of Himalayan art. Thogchags, also termed ‘thunderbolt irons’ or ‘sky irons’, are a special type of Tibetan amulet. From the Tibetan perspective, the objects, approximately 2 to 10 cm in size, have in the truest sense of the word fallen from heaven or have even been thrown from the sky by deities. Traditionally a thogchag must be found on or in the earth; according to oral lore, it lies at the point where lightning has struck. Thogchags are always of heavenly descent and command great powers of protection. With its comprehensive documentation of the diverse designs and forms of thogchags, the publication is an iconographic reference work on this extraordinary Tibetan amulet.
Tsha-tsha are terracottas, or unfired earthenware figures, in the form of cast-sculptured stupas/chörten (reliquaries) or reliefs, which are decorated in a variety of religious motifs in basrelief or half-relief. These votive offerings in earth or loam are produced by hand by believers or monks with models (casts) and serve many different purposes in every day religious life. With the depiction of over 360 objects, this book offers an outstanding review of the diverse manifestations and the extensive iconography of these exceptional ritual objects from the Buddhist cultural sphere.
Modern Indian Painting presents a survey of Indian painting from the late 19th century to the present day. Focusing on the private collection of Jane and Kito de Boer, the book clearly delineates major developments over a long period of time, while explaining and illustrating them with previously unpublished examples by many major artists. Numbering around 1,000 works, the de Boer collection is one of the largest and most significant collections of modern Indian painting in private hands. The book is based on fresh research by leading authorities in the field, who have studied the collection at first hand. The book is thus essential to the specialist while at the same time presenting a broad introduction to the field for the benefit of the general reader.

Peek inside Finch’s studio, a place brimming with buttons and scraps of fabric, where spindly-legged spiders keep watch over mischievous hares and carpet-winged moths perch majestically atop bookshelves. Many of these pieces were born of treasures lost and forgotten: velvet curtains from an old hotel, a threadbare wedding dress and a vintage apron become birds and beasts, looking for new owners and adventures. The pages of this book are strewn with creatures who prove that anything is possible in the fairytale world of Mister Finch.
The richly illustrated publication presents about 250 Inrō from the Anna and Christian Trumpf collection. These small, multipartite receptacles for seals and medicine, which were attached to a belt with the aid of a toggle (Netsuke), came into use in the 16th century and remained a prominent accessory in Japanese menswear until the late 19th century. The symbolic, often narrative decoration conveys a valuable insight into Japanese culture. Today the carefully and lovingly worked, mostly lacquered Inrō enjoy enormous popularity in collectors’ circles. Following the inventory of the Trumpfs’ significant Netsuke collection published in 2000, this is another comprehensively annotated standard work on Japanese belt decoration. Since her creation in 1959, Barbie has broken cultural, social, and linguistic barriers, all while showcasing a fabulous fashion sense. Organised into five sections: Barbie Is Fashion; Barbie’s Family; Dolls of the World; Barbie’s Careers; and Queen, Diva and Celebrity, Barbie as Global Icon, Barbie: The Icon celebrates the impact Barbie has had in culture for three generations in everything from style, to fashion, to careers, that makes her the model for the contemporary woman, the symbol of pop culture, and a genuine living legend.

100 CULTURAL HISTORY
Bruges 1914: a medium-sized Flemish city with a medieval core and a brand-new modern harbour is turned into a base for imperial Germany’s naval and submarine war. Though close to the Western Front, Bruges saw another face of war: that of military occupation, of being made into a bastion for its conqueror’s war, and of being bombed from the air as a result. The story of Bruges in the First World War is the story of a city that escaped destruction but faced violence. It is the story of its wartime rulers and how they saw their war effort. And it is the story of civilians who, even under military domination, made choices of their own. In the autumn of 1985, a series of violent and bloody robberies of Belgian supermarkets abruptly came to an end. A group of unknown criminals, referred to as ‘The Gang of Nivelles’, was held responsible for these heinous acts. In all, 28 people were killed. The father of Jan Rosseel (1979) was one of them. In spite of a thorough police investigation, a file of almost three million pages, the perpetrators were never apprehended. This period of terror and violence will remain one of the darkest pages in Belgian history; the case remains unresolved. This book is Jan Rosseel’s personal search for The Gang of Nivelles. Life Beyond the Big Top is a photo book that captures the history of the Tai Thean Kew Circus, a once-great Chinese circus established in Singapore in 1929. The collection of old photographs and surviving props and costumes that makes up this visual documentation belongs to Sze Ling Fen and Wong Fu Qi, lead performers of the circus. Authored by their granddaughter, Adele Wong, be invited to visit her grandparents, listening and looking as the story about the humble beginnings of a pioneering, familyrun Chinese circus unfolds.
The Monsoon War is an honest and gritty eye-witness account of the 1965 India-Pakistan war, as it happened, retold by two men who fought it. Their no-holds-barred narrative brings to life the various battles fought, and the human stories of the many brave soldiers who fought for both countries. A landmark war that witnessed one of world history’s most noteworthy tank battles (the Battle of Phillora), the events of 1965 are remembered as among the most significant victories of the modern Indian Armed Forces.
From one of the great bon vivants of our age comes this witty memoir of an extraordinary life lived among a glittering social set. Acclaimed designer and founder of Pret-a-Porter Marc Rosen shares in this delightful reminiscence the stories of his encounters with the great beauties, talents, and personalities of the last 50 years. Marc has rubbed shoulders with everyone - from Hollywood royalty (including Helen Hayes, Bette Davis, and his own wife, Arlene Dahl, the girl for whom Technicolor was invented) to actual royalty (Princess Grace of Monaco, the Romanovs) to the moguls of the beauty and fashion worlds (Charles Revson, Karl Lagerfeld) over the course of his brilliant career.

Beginning with rockabilly, moving on to folk music, sliding over to electric, and falling into a psychedelic phase, like a chameleon Bob Dylan has changed his skin repeatedly over the years, juggling his image with apparent ease and subverting the prevailing social and aesthetic models each time. The clothes, faces, music and places of those years become subjects to colour in, paper-dolls to dress, and board games to assemble, while the characters of his songs provide the members of a colourful circus. This is the ultimate collector’s activity-book.

102 MISCELLANEOUS
Lawyer and forensic auditor Flip de Mey has for years studied the files on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. His research, based on the original documents, led to a startling and ground-breaking theory, which he described in Cold Case Kennedy. In a follow-up to that bestseller, The Lee Harvey Oswald Files, de Mey investigates exactly what part Oswald played in the Kennedy assassination. With the same attention to detail that enabled him to prove Kennedy was the victim of a conspiracy, he examines the files and presents new information derived from unique photographs of Oswald’s rifle and contact with two of Oswald’s friends. De Mey’s conclusion is unambiguous: Oswald could not have killed Kennedy. So who did, and why? Flip de Mey’s answers to these questions are shrewd and supported by a multiplicity of arguments.
This new title in the Braziller Series of Australian Poets features a poet whose work has been instrumental to the evolution of Australian poetry. By turns philosophical, comic, elegiac and witty, Wallace-Crabbe has forged an utterly unique voice in contemporary poetry. His delight in language is sheer pleasure for the reader, and his wry wisdom indispensable. The Sunday Times called his work “poetry of fine technical resource, precise observation, and sly wit”. Wallace-Crabbe is one of Australia’s most celebrated poets.
In the late 1960s, Adah, a spirited and resourceful woman manages to move her family to London. Seeking an independent life for herself and her children she encounters racism and hard truths about being a new citizen. “Second Class Citizen pales a lot of academic feminist writing into insignificance.” The Guardian “Emecheta’s prose has a shimmer of originality, of English being reinvented... Issues of survival lie inherent in her material and give her tales weight.” John Updike
