Flower Pieces
A Photographic Journey Around the World
Bas Meeuws
Bas Meeuws’ photographs are of an old-fashioned beauty and at the same time radically contemporary. Flower by flower he composes his still lifes, but digitally: the basis for Meeuws’ monumental works are digital photographs of individual flowers. They nod to the Dutch masters of the 17th-century with their love of luxury, but also their eye for the ephemeral. Meeuws struck a chord in the art world with his floral still lifes. He is represented by Dutch and Taiwanese galleries and exhibits from Amsterdam to New Delhi.

Gas Stations
An Illustrated History
Thomas Vanhaute
“The gas station’s attractive visual qualities, multiplied by its omnipresence in the roadside landscape of the mid-20th century have made it – certainly in America – a true cultural icon.”- Thomas
Vanhaute
This book takes the reader on a photographic journey through time, telling the story of the roadside beacons of the automobile age: the gas stations. Starting from the very early years of motoring at the dawn of the 20th century, when cars would fill up at a primitive manual gas pump, to the iconic and sometimes bizarre structures of the heyday of the gas station concept in the 1930s through the 1950s. A concluding section looks at the afterlife of the disused gas station and investigates its adaptive reuse and position as built heritage within the historic urban landscape. Carefully selected and unique historical photographs from archives across the world give insight into the architectural and spatial elements of gasoline distribution, but equally looks into the social aspect of the gas station, as a roadside oasis where people of all walks of life would meet, during a brief stop-over.

True Wildlife
Tom D. Jones, foreword by Steve McCurry
An XL format edition of the bestselling book Icons by Oscar with portraits of the most iconic celebrities.
“Tom’s committed career has captured images that will serve as pieces of history for generations to come.” – Steve McCurry
Tom D. Jones is a wildlife photographer: he makes a point of never photographing animals in captivity and portrays them very closely. The results are almost human portraits of impressive animals such as elephants, rhinos, lions, etc. They also carry a clear message: let’s take care of these oftenendangered species and the world they inhabit before it’s too late. This is precisely what his friend and colleague Steve McCurry emphasizes in the foreword to this great book.

Unseen Burma
Early Photography 1862-1962
Thweep Rittinaphakorn
When the British colonized Burma, they brought with them the latest technology in cameras and photographic reproduction, and since these were introduced to Burma as early as the middle of the 19th century, the country is richly cataloged and photographed. The new technology was first popularized by western practitioners (Germans, Italians, and, of course, the British) and upper-class patrons, but then spread to the mass market. Thai scholar Thweep Rittinaphakorn (Ake) has written and lectured widely on Burmese culture, whilst collecting and/or inspiring groups of photographs.
Unseen Burma takes readers on a stunning visual journey from the beginning of Burma, its colonial era, through to the hopeful first years of independence.

Japan on a Glass Plate The Adventure of Photography in Yokohama and Beyond, 1853–1912
Sebastian Dobson
Between the twilight years of the Tokugawa shogunate (1603–1867) and the end of the Meiji Era (1868-1912), photography offered a unique insight into the rapid transformation of Japan from an isolated, feudal society to a modern, industrialized state. Whether cherished as souvenirs of an exotic land of fond imagination or curated as visual documents of a fast-changing society, these images by foreign and Japanese photographers, often packaged in exquisitely produced albums, enjoyed a wide circulation abroad and played an important role in influencing perceptions of Japan in the West well into the early 20th century.

Metropolis
Alan Schaller
What makes a city a city? Is it the buildings, the people or is it an interplay of both? In Metropolis, Allan Schaller has answered this question in his own individual way, setting standards in modern street photography. For all lovers of spectacular black-and-white photography, the coffee table book Metropolis is a must-have. In a unique way, Allan Schaller depicts urban contrasts that big cities like New York, London, Havana, Kyoto or Istanbul hold in store in their architecture and everyday life. In Metropolis, Allan Schaller elevates unusual city views to an art form, plays with light and shadow and creates a world in black and white that captivates the viewer. The photographs seem like random snapshots. As if the viewers were walking through the streets himself and catching a glimpse of a scene out of the corner of his eye. This is what fans of Schaller love about his work. The photo artist manages to capture the moment of surprise for eternity.

Autochrome Fascination of Early Color Photography
Dr. Maria Reitter-Kollmann, Dr. Alfred Weidinger
Autochromes were the first commercial color photographs. Invented in 1904 by the Lumière brothers Auguste and Louis in Paris, color photographs caused a great sensation at the time. They were an innovation and the first way to depict the world in true-to-life color and thus capture it for eternity. This impressive book was compiled by Dr. Maria Reitter-Kollmann and Dr. Alfred Weidinger, leading experts on the history of color photography at the Oberösterreichische Landes-Kultur GmbH in Linz.

Beusker Look into my Eyes
Lars Beusker
Lars Beuskers photographs wild animals in their natural environment at close range and almost always manages to make eye contact. He consciously seeks the animal’s attention and sensitively captures this intense moment with the camera. The fascinating intimacy that the artist creates with giraffes, buffalo, and zebras is palpable. Beusker’s photographs of wild elephants and big cats such as leopards, panthers and lions are also legendary. Animals that you would never get so close to as a human being under normal circumstances. The fascinating black-and-white photographs are bursting with detail. Every hair, every wrinkle and every muscle of the wild beauties is visible and, in some pictures, you have the feeling that the animal will jump out of the book at you in the next moment.

London Vertical
Horst Hamann
London Vertical is a delight both for lovers of the British capital and for fans of Hamann’s work. Whether Big Ben, Tower Bridge, London Eye or The Shard, Hamann presents all these sights, which have already been photographed thousands of times, in his own creative way and thus creates something completely new. The passionate photo artist was born in Mannheim in 1958 and discovered the camera for himself at the age of eleven. Having grown up on two continents, Europe and America, he began an intensive artistic exploration of the extreme format of panorama photography in 1985. But it was not until 1991 that what Hamann’s followers adore about him today happened: He turned his camera to portrait format for the first time at the intersection of 41st Street and Avenue of the Americas and has since been called the “inventor” of vertical photography among insiders.

Lost in the Beauty of Bad Weather
Christophe Jacrot
When a bad weather front piles up in front of a big city, Christophe Jacrot is certainly not far away. The French photographer specifically looks for rain and snow to capture his atmospheric snapshots. Jacrot’s subjects could come from film noir, but they are deliberately in color. For more than a decade, the name Christophe Jacrot has been associated with the photography of landscapes (urban or natural) determined by the weather. In his work, weather conditions are always extreme: the city is seen through a windowpane dripping with rain or a curtain of snow. His images capture the beauty of megacities transfigured by the weather with perfection and poetry. In his eyes, “there are two ways of photographing the world: capturing its horror or sublimating it”. In view of his nature photography, it quickly becomes clear which he prefers.

New York Waterfront Diary
Sophie Fenwick, interviewer
Pauline Vermare
These previously unpublished images of New York’s waterfront are presented here as part of a unique editorial project: the iconographic perspective is analyzed and discussed in Pauline Vermare’s interview with Sophie Fenwick, and finds further literary development in the photographer’s poetry, on which she started working during the pandemic and is used here to accompany the visual narrative. The language of photography is used here — in a series of black and white and color shots — to retrace the memory of a transformation and to express the urgency of documentation that in these pages evolves from personal to universal. The invitation to travel voiced by Fenwick is visual poetry articulated in a series of pictures, each of which possesses the potential to become a true icon.
Tokyo Unseen
Lukasz Palka
Following on from the first three books in the Unseen series about New York, London and Berlin, Tokyo Unseen is another authentic approach to one of the largest and most fascinating cities of our civilization.

The street life photographer describes his own work as a by-product of his countless walks through the city, where he constantly encounters exciting scenes and people. Tokyo Unseen presents wonderful pictures of people going about their daily lives, of skyscrapers and temples and the unique culture of life that arises when 14 million people meet in a very small space.
Wonderland
The Secret World of Mushrooms
Jan Vermeer
Wonderland is a trip into the fascinating world of mushrooms. Dutch photographer Jan Vermeer took on this incomparable project after being fascinated by the beauty of two toadstools in his own garden. Equipped with his camera, he enthusiastically set off on a mushroom hunt and was rewarded with pictures in intoxicating colors and shapes of the most extraordinary and sometimes very rare specimens. He has now compiled the most beautiful shots in Wonderland. In short but informative texts, the author describes the wealth of forms of his plant photographic models, their usefulness in medicine, but also the dangers posed by fungi. He explains the symbiosis between fungi and trees and devotes special attention to slime molds. In entertaining words, Vermeer explains to his readers the challenges he faced as a nature photographer in this ambitious project.

Tibetan Carpets The
Rudi Molacek Collection
Rudi Molacek, Thomas Wild, Thomas Cole, Felix Elwert
Central Asian Textiles The Neville Kingston Collection
Tereza Hejzlarová, Snejanna Atanova
Tai A Woven Culture Photographs by Hans Roels
Artist and photographer Rudi Molacek has assembled, with an artist’s eye, an idiosyncratic collection of more than 300 Tibetan carpets, rugs, mats, seat-, bench- and saddle-covers. Between the 15th and the 20th centuries they were woven for both sacred and secular purposes by Tibetan nomads and villagers, and in the shadow of monastic centers across the Tibetan Plateau. The first volume presents Tibetan rugs intended for sitting, sleeping, meditation and horse riding, as well as those made to furnish the region’s prestigious temples and monasteries — an expression of the relative wealth and status of their owners. The second volume focuses on a group of so-called ‘Wangden’ rural rugs, characterized by a unique weaving technique, some of which have been the subject of an illuminating exercise in radiocarbon dating to establish the antiquity of the tradition.
For thousands of years, the peoples of Central Asia have created spectacular textiles for every aspect of life. Infinite care, resources and time have gone into making elaborate costumes, equestrian items, and exquisite furnishings for settled as well as nomadic lifestyles. Items of dress were decorated literally from top to toe: boots were embroidered with metal thread, while hats were stitched, appliquéd and felted. The women of a family would come together to embroider dazzling suzanis to form part of a bride’s dowry; master dyers and weavers would craft vibrant ikat hangings. Combined, these objects tell an evocative story of life along the Silk Road in times past. This book brings together outstanding textiles from the Neville Kingston Collection, featuring many previously unpublished pieces. It is the second volume to document this exceptional English collection; Turkmen Carpets: The Neville Kingston Collection was published in 2016.
This lavish, large format art project is the culmination of 20 years research of Tai culture throughout Southeast Asia, beginning with Napajaree Suandduenchai’s vast 1,500 piece silk collection which has remained private until now. All 230 photographs were shot on sheet film to bring out the most intricate details of the textiles. Over the last 20 years, Mrs. Suanduenchai and photographer Hans Roels visited all the major Tai subgroups in their towns and villages to document their weaving traditions, culture and individual stories - their belief of who they are and where they came from. Roels’ photography captures both the intricacy of the Tai weaving arts as well as the people behind the textiles. As of 2022 at least 75% of the villages that Suanduenchai and Roels visited no longer produce traditional Tai textiles, leaving the reader as the last eye-witnesses to a spectacular culture. 9781898113713

Canova. Four Tempos Volume III
Vittorio Sgarbi, photographs
by Luigi Spina
Antonio Canova (1757-1822), is considered the greatest Neoclassical sculptor of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This book, the third in the series Canova: Four Tempos, features a collection of sublime black and white photographs of Canova’s plaster models taken by photographer Luigi Spina. The full-size plaster models that preceded the production of his marble sculptures played an important part in Canova’s creative process. Included here are his masterpieces The Three Graces and Sleeping Nymph, and the only work Canova made for an overseas patron, George Washington depicted as a Roman potentate. The text is by the well-known Italian art historian Vittorio Sgarbi.

Outsider Art in Canada
What else can art be like?
Linda Rainaldi
Outsider art is said to exist only because of cultural elitism and class differences where the margins are defined by the center. Thus, outsider artists are dismissed twice: first, by those who hold status and power, and second, by the mainstream art world. Their marginalized social status, often due to mental health issues, has led to their exclusion from the world of contemporary art. This book challenges viewers to relinquish myths and stereotypes about the source of creativity and to embrace the work of self-taught creators who are compelled to express themselves in unique ways. Most importantly, they will be asked to consider the role of art institutions in shaping their views on art. This volume addresses issues of social justice, diversity, and inclusion in the art world.
Rainbow-Paintings Fabienne Verdier
Corinna Thierolf
This thought-provoking essay by Corinna Thierolf stems from the art created by Fabienne Verdier in a visual and spiritual dialogue with the Isenheim Altarpiece by Matthias Grünewald (1516), housed at the Musée Unterlinden in Colmar. Between 2019 and 2022, Verdier produced to a series of 78 large-format paintings that develop Grünewald’s meditation on light, drawing not only upon significant moments in the history of science, but also on pivotal themes of both Eastern and Western painting and thus confirm the universal power of art.

When the Sun Goes Down and the Moon Comes Up
Edited by Ugo Rondinone
Italian artist Ugo Rondinone was invited by the Musee d’Art et d’Histoire (MAH) in Geneva to curate a show that invites a dialog between his work and the works in the permanent collection. The show he created centers around two emblematic figures of 19th and 20th century Swiss art – Felix Vallotton and Ferdinand Hodler - and considers the importance of love and desire in our relationship with art and creation. This book documents the museum’s halls and the exhibition, which includes works by Rondinone and art from the MAH Collection.
Woods Davy Sculptures
Preface by Suzanne Muchnic, text by Shana Nys Dambrot
This volume is the first monograph devoted to Woods Davy and collects the works made by the artist from 1978 to the present. Woods’s growth is in fact marked by an evolution: his early practice is characterized by bold architectural abstractions and monumental installations, while his later work possesses a more reflective character. These latter pieces are compositions of smooth, rounded stones that appear to float in the air, defying gravity. Woods’s work also draws upon ideas derived from his passion for art collecting, in particular the masks used by the Songye and Luba peoples that inhabit the south eastern regions of the Democratic Republic of Congo. He in fact owns what is certainly the most important private collection of Kifwebe masks.
Yves Dana A Fresh Perspective on Sculpture Interviewer Marc-Alain
Ouaknin
This double volume devoted to Yves Dana, a Swiss sculptor of Egyptian descent, is the ideal continuation of a 2015 publication by 5 Continents Editions. His sculptures present themselves to contemporary viewers as if they were the archaeological finds of ancient civilisations, and it is possibly from this very trait that they derive their extraordinary strength. The chronological narrative follows the works created by Dana since 2017 and calls the reader’s attention to the dialogue between the artist and his medium, which finds its voice in the creative process. In the interview with Marc-Alain Ouaknin included in this volume, it becomes clear that to Yves Dana his task is first and foremost observing what nature has to say — observing with his eyes, but also with his hands.

Archaeological Footwear
Development of shoe patterns and styles from Prehistory till the 1600s
Marquita Volken
This comprehensive volume delves deep into the cutting patterns, shoe style and chronology revealed by the author’s interpretation of archeological and other discoveries of recovered remains of shoes and shoemaking tools. Much light has been shed on the materials, design and construction of shoes through the ages in Europe. This has allowed the author to propose a chronological order for the technical, stylistic and typological complexity encountered among recovered archeological footwear.
Conservation of Plaster Casts
Edited by Jakub Doubal
This book focuses on the issues associated with the conservation, storage and display of plaster casts, reflecting on the past and reporting on the present. It examines the role that plaster itself plays in the process of making a sculpture, outlines the history of plaster casts and deals with the techniques of conservation including cleaning, consolidation, gluing, reintegration and preventive conservation and conservation surveys.
Dyes in History and Archaeology 37/40
Edited by Jo Kirby
The stories in this book will take the reader from the earliest times, a glimmer of color in the distant past, to the very real conservation problems of deteriorating containers of early synthetic dyes – a long and colorful history. The topics covered in this edition vary from the dyes of South America, Mesopotamia, Austria, 17th - 19th Century Flanders and England to the use of lichen, lac and redwood lake as pigments and cochineal for paints and inks. These papers were presented at the 37th, 38th and 40th meetings of the DHA group at NOVA University of Lisbon (2018), the University of Amsterdam (2019) and the online conference hosted by the British Museum, London (2021).

The Wall Paintings of Bamiyan, Afghanistan Technology and Materials Yoko Taniguchi, Marine Cotte
The site of Bamiyan in Afghanistan has suffered numerous disasters throughout its history which have resulted in the loss of many of its cultural treasures, especially many of the Buddhist wall paintings which contain/contained much of the history of painting techniques. In spite of these losses, the authors of this volume discovered, in a cave in Bamiyan, the oldest example of the use of oil-based paints in the world dating back to the mid-7th century. This book presents important data collected through chemical analyses aimed at determining the materials and techniques used in the Buddhist wall paintings at Bamiyan. The results of these studies are discussed from a broad perspective, addressing the cultural interactions between the geographical east and west of the Eurasian continent.

Kunst am Bau – Annelies und Fred Stelzig
Edited by Stadt Besigheim
Appreciation of the works by the German artist couple Annelies and Fred Stelzig from Besigheim in the discipline of art made for architecture has been a long time coming. To mark the 100th anniversary of them both, the town of Besigheim has made this its task. For the large retrospective, a publication is launched that focuses on the incredible breadth of their production for the very first time. Waiting to be discovered alongside wall ceramics and carpets are works in wood, glass, and enamel. Numerous contributions by authoritative experts present the personal backgrounds of the couple, trace lines of development, and highlight the material specificities of their works. Over 300 illustrations additionally provide a lively impression of the couple’s ability to be versatile yet at the same time retain continuity during their long creative period, from the 1950s to their last work in 2006.
James Wilson Morrice Paintings and Drawings of Venice Sandra Paikowsky
James Wilson Morrice: Paintings and Drawings of Venice is the first comprehensive overview of the artist’s images of Venice, Italy. Living in Paris for most of his life, Morrice (1865–1924) was the first Canadian painter to make regular trips to Venice from the mid-1890s to about 1908. This book situates Morrice within the history of Venice and Venetian art in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by looking carefully at his more than 100 modernist paintings and numerous drawings of “La Serenissima.” During his lifetime, Morrice’s Venetian pictures appeared in art exhibitions in Paris, London and other European countries, as well as in Montreal and the United States. Constantly cited in exhibition reviews, Morrice was praised for his modernity, and his Venice works have ensured his fame and importance for years to come.

Majapahit Masterpieces from a Forgotten Kingdom Agus Aris Munandar
Flourishing in East Java, Indonesia, between the late 13th and the early 16th centuries, art from Majapahit had a decisive influence on the development of Southeast Asian culture: its highly distinctive style was characterized by the subtle balance between form and decoration and by a rich iconography strongly influenced by Sivaism and Buddhism. Today, these Majapahit artworks still constitute a highly interesting field of research, but they have been surprisingly far too little studied or published worldwide. This volume presents an exceptional selection of 86 Majapahit terracotta sculptures covering a wide range of sophisticated iconography—animals, images of motherhood, divinities—all drawn from popular legends of the period and part of a broader narrative series waiting to be discovered.
The Mashrabiya Project Ancient Architectures and Contemporary Ideas Across the Islamic World
Jennifer-Navva Milliken, edited by Museum for Art in Wood
The mashrabiya originated in the ancient world. As a scalable latticed window screen, whose intricate geometries developed with the spread of Islam, it provided ventilation, shade, and privacy to buildings. Today, as restoration efforts revive centuries-old architecture across Cairo and an interest in craft is rekindled. This publication, the first dedicated to the study of the mashrabiya, connects a culturally specific craft with contemporary artistic practice. Through photographs conveying the beauty and artistry of these wooden structures as well as contemporary works by leading artists, the complex beauty and meaning of the mashrabiya are brought to life.
William Underhill Casting a Legacy
Edited by Wayne Higby
William Underhill (1933–2022) was one of the great talents and enigmas of the modern American studio craft movement. He became an acclaimed master of lost-wax casting, pursuing the sculptural potential of bronze vessels with unrivalled persistence and virtuosity. He “molded and scratched the wax until the final bronze surface embodied all of the mystical connotations of a ritualistic object,” said Lee Nordness in his groundbreaking Objects USA (1969) survey of modern studio crafts. But Underhill then left the limelight and went on to ceaselessly explore both the power of beauty and form-making as a way to shape the spirit.

Ashmolean NOW
Daniel Crews-Chubb x
Flora Yukhnovich
Lena Fritsch
The book will coincide with the first Ashmolean NOW exhibition in Gallery 8, opening in July 2023. The Ashmolean NOW Program features exciting works by prominent early to mid-career artists based in the UK, seeking to attract new audiences interested in contemporary art. Artists who have established international reputations and emerging artists whose international status is anticipated with a strong degree of confidence are approached pro-actively. In addition to exhibiting their existing works, all artists are invited to create at least one new work as a response to the museum and/or its collections. This first exhibition presents two linked solo shows: paintings/drawings by Flora Yukhnovich, and paintings/ drawings by Daniel Crews-Chubb.
Rubens & Women
Ben van Beneden, Amy Orrock
The art of Peter Paul Rubens (15771640) is synonymous with the female nude, with the term ‘Rubenesque’ first coined in the 19th century to describe a voluptuous female body. Yet remarkably, there has never been a focused study of Rubens’ depictions of women, making this book, and the exhibition that it will accompany, a first. Bringing together a diverse range of paintings and drawings the exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery (October 2023 – January 2024) will challenge the popular assumption that Rubens only painted one type of woman. Instead, it will present a more nuanced view of the varied and essential role that women played in the artist’s life and work, uniting and contributing to recent scholarly developments in subjects such as the identities of Rubens’ sitters, 17th century artistic theory and practice, and Rubens’ treatment of the human body.
The Lotus Moon Art and Poetry of the Buddhist Nun Otagaki Rengetsu
John Stevens
This is the most comprehensive Englishlanguage presentation of the work of Otagaki Rengetsu (1791-1875), a Japanese nun famed for her multifaceted artistic skills and prodigious output. Rengetsu (Lotus Moon) was one of the most remarkable women in Japanese culture, a trained samurai, wife, mother, nun, poet, calligrapher, painter, and potter. This book was developed as a catalog for an exhibition of Rengetsu’s work mounted at the Royal Monastery of St. Mary of Pedralbes in Barcelona. Written by Professor John Stevens, the foremost authority on the artist, it includes a biography of Rengetsu based on his latest research, plus an introduction to her poetry, calligraphy, painting, and pottery. The catalog of 90 entries includes several pieces not seen in the exhibition.

Painting and Poetry. Ungaretti and the art of seeing
Bruno Corà, text by Alexandra Zingone
Tornabuoni Art Paris opens 2023 with an exhibition dedicated to the relationship between art and poetry, examining the case of Giuseppe Ungaretti, on the 110th anniversary of his arrival in Paris, a defining moment in his literary career. The catalog, with texts by Alexandra Zingone, literary critic and curator of the exhibition, tackles the analysis of the art of the ‘short century’ with a global view, taking into consideration the constant dialog between the various exponents of the cultural world. Through passages from critical texts by Ungaretti as an interpreter of art, the volume follows the exhibition among the many works by contemporary artists, including Giacomo Balla, Alberto Burri, Giuseppe Capogrossi, Carlo Carrà, Giorgio de Chirico, Piero Dorazio and others.
Chess and Brain Art & Science
Zachary Mainen, Razvan Sandru, Stefano Salis, Adolivio Capece
The volume starts from the scientific aspect to trace the game’s success back to its origins: the brain mechanisms activated during a game are the subject of a critical essay by neuroscientists Zachary Mainen and Razvan Sandru. The essay is followed by an excursus by Stefano Salis, who guides the reader along an itinerary depicting the origins and evolution of the game and describes its effects on cinema, figurative art and literature. The volume ends with an appendix edited by chess player Adolivio Capece. The importance of chess over time is further attested to by the objects people once played with: chess sets were among the most valued gifts. The illustrations in this book feature the most exquisite pieces from one of the most prized private collections in the world, masterfully photographed by Massimo Listri.
Grandi Giardini Italiani The Essence of Paradise
Judith Wade, Delfina Rattazzi, Caterina Napoleone
The book Grandi Giardini Italiani, published for the 25th anniversary of the foundation of the Grandi Giardini Italiani network by Judith Wade, celebrates the places where nature, art and history come together to amaze visitors. The volume sets out to describe the places belonging to the network, taking readers on a journey in search of Italy’s green splendors. The text by author and journalist Delfina Rattazzi maps out an itinerary that spans the entire peninsula, gathering the gardens around focal points that highlight their similarities and help us understand their histories and singularities. Completing the volume is an anthology edited by art historian Caterina Napoleone: a literary stroll among the gardens fashioned by writers. Side by side with the texts, images of the gardens reveal their most beautiful vistas.

La Chine
En miniature
Giorgio Antei, Hwee Lie
Blehaut, J.B. Joseph Breton
Capturing the essence of late 18thcentury China in a hundred miniatures seems an impossible task. Yet, on the orders of the French Minister of State, Bertin, the Chinese Catholic priests Aloys Ko and Etienne Yang completed the assignment, revealing a strange and fascinating world that was very distant from the West. This kaleidoscopic collection, exotic and popular at the same time, comes to life in the pages of this volume, which brings together all the miniatures and the original French texts. The introduction, an essay by Hwee Lie Blehaut, gives an account of the historical and cultural climate in which the idea of Chine en miniature developed. Giorgio Antei’s text instead focusses on the point of view of the foreigner and the “barbarian” in both the Western and Chinese cultures.
Mantua Classical Utopia
Sylvia Ferino-Pagden, Howard Burns, Marzio Achille Romani, Daniela Sogliani, Roberto Brunelli
Because it was founded on water and marshes, Mantua is a wonderful water lily of a city. After a historical introduction, the volume focuses on the history of art and architecture in Renaissance Mantua, when the Gonzagas’ passion and the presence of extraordinary architects and artists, such as Leon Battista Alberti, Andrea Mantegna and Giulio Romano, imposed a character of princely magnificence, theatrical and dreamlike, on the city. Browsing through the images takes the reader to the city’s most beautiful spots, amid the most surprising monuments and works of art.
Baroque Influencers Jesuits, Rubens, and the Arts of Persuasion
Edited by Pierre Delsaerdt, Esther Van Thielen
In what ways did the Jesuits deploy the Baroque visual language of the time to persuade the public of their vision on humankind, religion and society? In this beautifully illustrated book, which includes numerous artworks by Peter Paul Rubens and others, diverse authors rise to the challenge of finding answers to this complex question.
Baroque Influencers – Jesuits, Rubens and the Arts of Persuasion presents written contributions from researchers affiliated with the Universities of Antwerp, Louvain and Stuttgart and various heritage institutes.

Ben Sledsens
Ben Sledsens
Artist Ben Sledsens (b. 1991) combines an in-depth knowledge of the visual tradition with his own mythology. With his large-scale canvases, he shows us fragments from his imaginary world, a Utopia in which he himself wants to live. His colors and reinterpretations of the landscape are reminiscent of artists such as Henri Matisse, Pierre Bonnard, Claude Monet, Henri Rousseau and Pieter Bruegel the Elder. Although his landscapes, portraits, and historical and daily scenes have an idyllic appearance, there is also a certain tension and mystery in his scenes. He always builds up his compositions around a moment of climax with an open beginning and end. By reusing motifs, themes, objects and poses, Sledsens creates an intriguing puzzle of references and builds a recognizable, coherent, romantic and utopian oeuvre.
Cobra
A Pictorial and Poetic Revolution
Edited by Piet Thomas, Paul Huvenne, Piet Boyens, Naomi Meulemens, Laura Stamps
With French as its working language, Cobra was pretty much the last truly European movement within Modernism. The group’s anarchic story is not just an important strand in art history — it remains as lively as ever and has inspired all sorts of artists who were never directly involved with Cobra. The work bequeathed to us by Karel Appel, Pierre Alechinsky, Constant, Corneille and other kindred spirits is as fascinating as ever, both raw and confronting, poetic and moving. It is with the same spirit of artistic joyfulness and freedom that this book showcases the masterpieces of Cobra art belonging to The Phoebus Foundation.
Dennis Tyfus Dennis Tyfus
The practice of Antwerp-based artist Dennis Tyfus (b. 1979) encompasses a wide range of artistic media, including drawings, sculptures, installations, videos, magazines, books, music, vinyl records, tattoos, his own radio show, concerts and performances. In his oeuvre, everything flows into everything else, without a fixed definition, beginning or end. In doing so, he draws heavily on the work of artists such as Dieter Roth, Mike Kelley, Jim Shaw and Wim T. Schippers. By combining elements from his personal psyche with various aspects of high and low culture and approaching them on an equal footing, Tyfus creates a universe in which the personal, the everyday and the uncanny come together. This book brings together a wide selection from his oeuvre.

Face to Face with Hugo van der Goes
Old Master, New Interpretation
Marijn Everaarts, Matthias Depoorter, Marijn Everaarts, Griet Steyaert
In this fascinating introduction to the work and life of Flemish Primitive Hugo van der Goes (c. 1440–1482/1483), several experts and researchers shed light on the virtuosity of the master himself. The Death of the Virgin is one of the most important works in Musea Brugge’s world-renowned collection of Early Netherlandish painting. After an intensive five-year restoration, the masterpiece has come into its own again, with many brilliant elements, a bright color palette and newly uncovered details. Face to Face with Hugo van der Goes – Old Master, New Interpretation offers an insight into the timeless yet contemporary character of the masterpiece and pays attention to the iconic value of a work waiting to be discovered.
From Antwerp to Amsterdam
Painting from the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries
Koenraad Jonckheere, Micha Leeflang, Sven Van Dorst, e.a.
Seventeenth-century Dutch art is famed throughout the world. Yet how ‘Dutch’ are those paintings in actual fact? Did the countless history pieces, landscapes, portraits, still lifes and scenes from everyday life truly originate in cities like Amsterdam, Haarlem, Delft and Leiden? This book presents over 90 masterpieces by Flemish and Dutch artists to show how 17th century Dutch painting could never have flourished the way it did without the foundations laid in 16th century Antwerp. Thoroughly researched, it tells the story of the talented and accomplished artists and merchants who migrated north in search of religious liberty and new commercial opportunities after Antwerp fell to Spanish Catholic troops in 1585.
Inès van den Kieboom
Inès van den Kieboom
Inès van den Kieboom (b. 1930 in Ostend; lives and works in Antwerp) has been painting since the 1960s, yet she only decided to exhibit her paintings in the last two years. Van den Kieboom mainly finds inspiration for her works in her everyday surroundings, but also in art history, popular culture and current affairs. She paints or draws her subjects through the filter of her memories or impressions, which she depicts figuratively, abstracted to their essence. Van den Kieboom’s self-assured, lively and energetic paintings offer new perspectives on the way we observe the world.

A Fictional Autobiography
Rinus Van de Velde
Rinus Van de Velde is one of the most talked-about contemporary artists. In his early period he was mainly known for his monumental charcoal drawings, but he soon developed into an all-round artist through his use of different media. Using installations, film, charcoal, ceramics and pencil drawings, Van de Velde explores his fictional biography. This book offers an overview of his more recent charcoal, pencil and oil pastel drawings. A Fictional Autobiograhy is published in conjunction with Frac des Pays de la Loire, Nantes. With text contributions by Jan Postma, editor at De Groene Amsterdammer, and Laura Stamps, curator of modern and contemporary art at Kunstmuseum Den Haag.
Dark Shadow Gilbert & George
First published in 1974, Dark Shadow is a living sculpture book, the ‘result of our past three years of earnest daily thoughts, shadows, deeds, cares and pleasures.’
Written by the artists, Dark Shadow offers a unique perspective on their work and an insight into their minds. Like their art, Gilbert & George’s writing is irreverent, rebellious, fantastical, often funny and deeply poetic. Each book is a piece of art in itself; uniquely bound in hand-marbled cloth created by the pair. Dark Shadow is structured into eight chapters, which elaborate on different aspects of their work such as ‘Gordons Gin’, ‘Bloody Life’ and ‘Human Bondage’. It includes original photographs of Gilbert & George, their famous home in Spitalfields and paintings. As is emblazoned on the cover, Dark Shadow is a continuation of their lifelong agenda ‘Art for All.’

These contributions feature alongside original texts by the exhibition’s curator Amy Jones and Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive’s Senior Curator Victoria Sung, as well as a foreword co-authored by Zoé Whitley, Director of Chisenhale Gallery, London, and Matthew Hyland, Executive Director of Contemporary Art Gallery, Vancouver. From genetics and family migrations to memory-conjuring foods, In Cascades is a testament to the political and emotional forces that shape a single person.

Medusa Yoyo Munk
As a species, we have grown comfortable eradicating ecosystems to architect spaces, cordoning ourselves off from the natural world. Taking inspiration from nature, the mixed reality Medusa installation began with the questions: is there even such a thing as non-physical architecture? What is the function of architecture without physical form? It headlined the London Design Festival in 2021 at the Victoria & Albert Museum. Yoyo’s first book is an exploration into Medusa’s themes, ruminating on our changing relationship with architecture within the context of rapidly advancing technology and ongoing mass extinction. With a highly conceptual design embodying the book’s concept, it is an art object, employing multiple inks and papers and processes. Featuring shots of the installation and full of beautiful imagery, Medusa is a timely and moving artist’s book about climate grief.
Stacey Gillian Abe Shrub-let of Old Ayivu
Stacey Gillian Abe
The debut monograph of Stacey Gillian Abe’s work is created to accompany her first London solo show at Unit London. Featuring works spanning her career to date, the book explores the key themes from Abe’s work and delves deep into her expressive and symbolic indigo portraits. Abe’s work reflects her past and her memories, highlighting her personal experiences and her relationships to her community. The autobiographical dimension of her work confronts traditional depictions of the Black body, challenging the colonial lens. Abe creates imaginary spaces that induce a surreal mystical feel while probing unsettling past and present narratives of identity, gender, spirituality and cultural mysticism. Renowned for her indigo skin-tone paintings, the color has become crucial in reshaping narratives surrounding the black body. Through the color, she dives into the past to envision an alternative future for the Black race.
Making New Worlds Li Yuan Chia & Friends
Hammad Nasar, Amy Tobin, Dr. Sarah Victoria Turner
Making New Worlds: Li Yuan-chia & Friends is the first book to document the extraordinary activity at the LYC Museum & Art Gallery in Banks, Cumbria between 1972 and 1983. The LYC was the single-minded effort of the artist Li Yuan-chia, who moved to the rural North of England by way of London, Bologna, Taipei and Guangxi, China. At the LYC, Li organized exhibitions, published books, exhibited archeological artifacts, arranged workshops and welcomed an array of visitors from local and international artists and art workers to nearby residents and travelers. In this book, which accompanies an exhibition of the same name at Kettle’s Yard, the curators establish Li’s work at the LYC as a form of worldmaking. Richly illustrated, Making New Worlds offers a provocative new way of thinking the history of British art in the 20th century. 9780903696661

Anthea Hamilton Reimagines Kettle’s Yard
Edited by Kettle’s Yard
This publication marks Anthea Hamilton Reimagines Kettle’s Yard - an installation by Turner Prize nominee Anthea Hamilton at The Hepworth Wakefield, exhibited during September 2016 – May 2017. The ambitious installation included a series of new works, created by the artist in response to works from the Kettle’s Yard Collection. Hamilton is renowned for her art-pop, culture-inspired sculptures and installations that incorporate references from the worlds of art, fashion, design and cinema. Based on her research into the art and objects of the Kettle’s Yard Collection, Hamilton re-appropriated objects from the collection, using unexpected details as starting points for new works. Hamilton invited several British and international artists, with whom she has either previously worked, or whose work is important to her, to contribute to the new installation.
Actions
The Image of the World Can be Different
Edited by Sarah Lowndes, Andrew Nairne
This publication marked the 2018 exhibition Actions. The exhibition was inspired by a letter Naum Gabo wrote to Herbert Read in 1944, in which Gabo reasserts the potential of art as a poetic, social and political force in the world and his belief that “the image of the world can be different”. Actions reflects the energizing diversity and breadth of art in the modern and contemporary period within the UK and internationally. Bringing together work across a variety of forms and media made by artists of different generations from the emerging to the renowned, the exhibition features work by 38 artists including nine new commissions by Rana Begum, Jeremy Deller, eL Seed, Idris Khan, Issam Kourbaj, Harold Offeh, Melanie Manchot, Cornelia Parker and Caroline Walker.

Devised for the new galleries and spaces at Kettle’s Yard, SUBJECT highlighted many of Antony Gormley’s interests, including how sculpture can activate both the space that it occupies and the body of the viewer. The exhibition offered a series of physical and metaphysical encounters, exploring our relationship to space and our sense of self. SUBJECT encompassed both galleries, the Learning Studio and the Research Space.

Edited by Natasha Ginwala, Jesal Thacker
Ganesh Haloi, born in Jamalpur, Mymensingh (now in Bangladesh), moved to Calcutta in 1950 after the Partition of India. Witness to India’s resilient culture, its freedom and struggle for its secular modernism, Haloi is among the artists of the generation who have played a significant role in the shaping of Indian modern art. His works are exercises in bringing life to the genre of landscape painting through the assembly of disparate symbolic forms. With extensive essays by eminent art critics interspersed with folios of many previously unpublished works from throughout his life, this monograph documents Haloi’s earth-toned abstract vocabulary that has drawn over time on a vast breadth of iconography, ideas, and movements. Published in association with Akar Prakar, Kolkata & New Delhi.
After an early stint in Bombay in the 1940s, with the Progressive Artists’ Group, S. H. Raza moved to France, where he spent the next 60 years. This volume explores Raza’s artistic trajectory from the time of his arrival in Paris, as well as his contribution to the development of modernism in the Indian subcontinent. Beginning with early works developed in India before 1947, the essays in this volume analyze Raza’s later abstraction processes and landscapes. Accompanying the S.H. Raza exhibition at the Centre Pompidou in Paris in 2023, this monograph presents a compelling overview of Raza’s work and the highlights of his journey. Published in association with the Raza Foundation, New Delhi and Centre Pompidou, Paris. 9781904561866

Grayson Perry, Victoria Coren Mitchell, Patrick Elliott, Tor Scott
Grayson Perry is one of Britain’s most celebrated contemporary artists and cultural figures. This book, which includes first sight of new and previously unpublished works, is published to accompany the largest-ever retrospective of Perry’s art. It offers a vibrant insight into his life and work, from his youth in rural Essex to sell-out stage shows at the Royal Albert Hall.

Victoria Coren Mitchell’s thoughtprovoking contribution considers the role of humor in Perry’s art, highlighting the oftenunderestimated effort involved in being at once a serious artist and a lovable character.

William Bell Scott’s Screen A Pre-Raphaelite Romance Emily Learmont
William Bell Scott’s screen, The King’s Quair, was commissioned by James Leathart, an important collector of PreRaphaelite art. The beautifully decorated folding screen took as its inspiration
The Kingis Quair, a 15th-century Scots poem attributed to James I of Scotland. Depicting key scenes from the king’s 18year imprisonment in Windsor Castle, it is adorned by exquisite botanical details and gold leaf. Split into three parts, this book reveals the history of the screen’s commission, details the remarkable imagery of the screen itself, and finally situates the screen in its historical context by explaining the fascinating personal relationships that were the backdrop to its creation, including Scott’s relationship with the artist and heiress Alice Boyd.
The Bhagavad Gita A Life-changing Conversation Vandana R Singh
This book, as the title suggests, decodes life lessons from each section of the Gita, looking at this ancient text through a twenty-first century prism. Far from being a mere compilation of selected didactic verses, this narrative skillfully strings together 251 verses of the Gita. It deciphers each of them, and presents the takeaways as tools to face situations of modern-day distress, dilemma and inner conflict. Written from the perspective of a non-ritualistic individual, the book connects the teachings of the Gita with current concepts of life skills. It also reiterates the relevance of a text written thousands of years ago, and showcases its contemporary value by drawing parallels with our day-to-day existence today.

Origins of Orchha Painting
Orchha, Datia, Panna: Miniatures from the Royal Courts of Bundelkhand
(1590–1850)
Konrad Seitz
Vol. 1
This book about miniature painting at the Bundelkhand royal courts of Orchha, Datia, and Panna is the first to admit an understanding of the works that two fatal misconceptions regarding their time and place of origin have hitherto thwarted. The miniature school of Bundelkhand that first developed at Orchha was the earliest and most Indian of all the Rajput schools and at the time of its founding the only one to practice a purely indigenous style of painting, “untainted” by the naturalism of imperial Mughal painting. The author’s interpretations and stylistic analyses of over 240 paintings from his collection, many of them published here for the first time, shed light on the school’s development from the late sixteenth century to the early days of British rule.

In Search of Eternity Painting on and with Stone in Rome. Itinerary
Edited by Francesca Cappelletti, Patrizia Cavazzini
Canvas as a pictorial support was only reluctantly adopted in Rome and even in the 17th century it was not universally employed. From 1530 until the first decade of the 17th century many altarpieces in Rome were instead painted on stone, especially on slate. The invention of the technique is due to Sebastiano del Piombo (1485–1547) who employed it in his monumental Nativity of the Virgin for the Chigi Chapel in Santa Maria del Popolo. This book presents a selection of the most significant stone altarpieces in Rome: San Marcello al Corso (Federico Zuccari), S. Maria della Vallicella (Rubens), S. Caterina dei Funari (Girolamo Muziano), San Silvestro al Quirinale (Scipione Pulzone), Santa Maria della Pace (Lavinia Fontana), Santa Maria Maggiore (Girolamo Siciolante) are among the churches included in this guide.
Luca Giordano Baroque Master in Florence
Edited by Riccardo Lattuada, Giuseppe Scavizzi, Valentina Zucchi
Luca Giordano (Naples, 1634–1705) was one of Italy’s most celebrated Baroque painters when he traveled to Florence, where his art was already appreciated and collected. He received many commissions, but certainly the most prestigious was that for the decoration of the vault of the new wing of Palazzo Medici Riccardi, the ancient house of Lorenzo the Magnificent which was then owned by the Marquis Francesco Riccardi. The exhibition and its catalogue document this masterpiece through the ten painted sketches by Giordano (exhibited under the very frescoes) and circa 30 other paintings from his Florentine period (1682–1685) by the aptly named Luca “fa presto” (fare presto = to be fast).
The Palazzo Vecchio Grotesques
Valentina Zucchi
Palazzo Vecchio, which towers over piazza della Signoria, at the center of Florence, is an iconic building and from the Middle Ages to the Medici family to present day it has been the seat of civic power. Among its most admired features are the marvelous grotesque decorations which animate the walls and vaults of the courtyard and several rooms. Grotesques are a type of wall decoration, in stucco or fresco, often with the addition of gold, that developed in the Renaissance when the vaults of the Domus Aurea in Rome, which were underground, were rediscovered by artists who drew inspiration from those designs. Palazzo Vecchio’s grotesques are lively, extravagant ornaments, generated by the creativity of artists and they include, birds, flowers, vegetation and many strange creatures that have a mixture of human and animal traits.

Timeless Wonder Painting on Stone in Rome between the Cinquecento and Seicento
Edited by Francesca Cappelletti, Patrizia Cavazzini
During the 16th and 17th century, the discussion on the durability of artworks had become part of the debate on comparison of the arts, opposing the merits of sculpture to those of painting. The sculptors used colored marbles and painters painted on stone, while metals and precious woods contribute to the creation of extraordinary objects, such as small altars, cabinets, and clocks, with complex architectural shapes and adorned with sculptures, reliefs and paintings. Painting on stone was particularly popular in Rome: the technique, developed by Sebastiano del Piombo, was used to paint large altarpieces but also for smaller works, avidly collected by contemporary patrons, among whom Scipione Borghese stands out.
A New and Noble School
Ruskin and the PreRaphaelites
Passionate Attitudes The English Decadence of the 1890s Matthew Sturgis
John
Ruskin, edited by Stephen Wildman
In 1851 John Ruskin came to the defense of the young artists of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood by writing two letters to The Times, refuting widespread criticism of their paintings. Soon afterwards he published a pamphlet entitled PreRaphaelitism, beginning almost a decade of public support for the work of William Holman Hunt, John Everett Millais and their associates. Already established as one of the leading writers on art, he took a personal risk in defending the Pre- Raphaelite cause. This is the first compilation of all of Ruskin’s published writings relating to the Pre-Raphaelites, beginning with the celebrated passage in the first volume of Modern Painters (1843).
The Eighteen Nineties have become legendary: the period of Wilde, Beardsley and the Yellow Book; a decadent twilight at the close of the Victorian century, when young poets weary of life sat about drinking absinthe and talking of strange sins. In Passionate Attitudes, Matthew Sturgis examines the varying extents to which ambitious poets, penurious painters, canny publishers and a controversialist press all conspired to promote the notion of decadence. He explores in detail the cataclysmic effect upon English decadence of the spectacular trial and subsequent conviction of Wilde in 1895, a fall which was to cast a blight over the whole generation. Elegantly written, Passionate Attitudes provides a hugely informative and richly entertaining account of the zeitgeist behind the glorious decade of excess.

Burne-Jones Talking
His Conversations 18951898 Preserved by His Studio Assistant Thomas Rooke
Edward Burne-Jones, Thomas Rooke, Mary Lago
In this book, Burne-Jones emerges as a loveable and charming man, far more practical and down-to-earth, far wittier and more ironic than might have been expected. To know his work without his talk is “not to know him” ...only when they are side by side is the common origin and aim seen and the complete man displayed.’ Thus Thomas Rooke, studio assistant to Burne-Jones, who over four years memorized and recorded much of his master’s studio and lunchtable talk. The man revealed with startling freshness and immediacy is far from the familiar painter of knightly melancholy and abstract angels.
The Ruskin Revival
1969-2019
Suzanne Fagence Cooper
In the year of the bicentenary of John Ruskin’s birth, Suzanne Fagence Cooper documents the astonishing revival of interest in Ruskin’s ideas and values. In his own day, he was revered as a pioneering art critic - champion of J M W Turner and the Pre-Raphaelites - as well as an artist, educator and campaigner. However, by the mid-20th century, his views seemed outmoded, relegated to the footnotes of historical debate. The Ruskin Revival: 19692019 celebrates the re-engagement with his radical world-view. Whether we see him as a prophet, teacher, philanthropist or artist, Ruskin’s life and work seem to have become more urgent, 200 years after his birth.

Hogarth on High Life
The Marriage a La Mode Series from Georg Cristoph Lichtenberg’s Commentaries
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg, Jean-Andre Rouquet, William Hogarth, edited by Arthur C. Wensinger, W. B. Coley
Marriage a la Mode is the most famous of William Hogarth’s ‘progresses’ or series paintings, the story of a marriage de convenance and its unhappy consequences in fashionable 18thcentury London. Contemporaries relished teasing out the meaning of all its rich detail, and the most extensive and popular of all the commentaries on the artist’s accomplishment: was that of the witty, many-sided German, Georg Christoph Lichtenberg. Brilliantly translated, thoroughly annotated, this text is accompanied by the earlier and less-known commentary by Hogarth’s friend, the French-Swiss enameller Jean-Andre Rouquet, and by a selection of Lichtenberg’s remarks (in letters to friends) on his purposes and problems in interpreting Hogarth’s work.
Travels With Pen & 2B A Lifetime Sketchbook Antony Cleminson
With a rare combination of great economy of means and unfailing panache, Antony Cleminson’s drawings of palatial buildings and urban settings are endlessly delightful and fascinating. Collected from more than 60 years of traveling with his wife Jan, a concert violinist, they take in England, France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Croatia, Russia, Jordan, Syria, and Yemen. They bring not only extreme sensitivity to place, but also an engineer’s understanding of structure, and an historian’s understanding of style. Pencil, chalk, charcoal, red and black ink, and India ink are some of the media used, and the book is printed on genuine Ingres paper to reproduce these beautiful drawings as closely as possible. Will appeal to those with a love of architectural heritage in Europe and the Middle East.

Memories of a PreRaphaelite Youth
Ford Madox Ford
One of the greatest literary artists in history, Ford Madox Ford’s childhood is brought to life in this collection of anecdotes from his many memoirs. Ford Madox Ford, best known today for Parade’s End and The Good Soldier, was also a very fine memoirist. The grandson of Ford Madox Brown, he grew up surrounded by all the great figures of Victorian artistic life, whom he saw with the unflinching eye of a child. This collection brings together some of his most evocative, witty, and tender memories of an extraordinary youth.
Every Object Tells a Story
Oliver Hoare
What is assembled here might look like a modern ‘Cabinet of Curiosities’, an assemblage of the exotic and curious from the four quarters of the world. There is an intention behind it, however, that goes beyond presenting a wide variety of curiosities. We are today linked up to all those four quarters, and while a huge amount of information is available to us, unlike to those who awaited the ships in the ports of Amsterdam, Genoa, Lisbon, London, Marseille, Seville or Venice, the horizon of what interests us seems to have shrunk. The art market is an interesting barometer of this shrinkage. The point is, therefore, that we can connect with the whole world on a much more profound level than can be gained from package touring, through the possession of, and study of even the most modest objects of different cultures.
Illustrations of the Book of Job
William Blake
The Illustrations of the Book of Job were Blake’s last masterpiece of printmaking. Commissioned by the painter John Linnell, they were based on watercolors Blake had made around 1805. Three hundred copies were printed in 1826, and they earned Blake high recognition from fellow artists. They remain some of his greatest works. The 21 prints are reproduced here actual size.

Insurgency and The Artist
The Art of The Freedom Struggle in India
Vinay Lal
Janamsakhi Paintings of Guru
Nanak
in Early Sikh Art
Nikky-Guninder Kaur Singh
Janamsakhis are stories about the life of Guru Nanak (1469–1539). They have been circulating orally, in writing, and in paintings and illustrations. B40 is one such documented artistic expression held at the British Library in London. Its fiftyseven beautiful iconotexts narrate the life of the first Sikh Guru from his first day at school to his final moments. The talented artist Alam Chand Raj illustrates Guru Nanak’s sensuous feel for the all-inclusive Divine, his interior and exterior journeys, his manifold inter-faith conversations, his environmental aesthetics, and his marvelous actions. In the language of vibrant colours Guru Nanak’s transcendent materiality and worldaffirming existentiality are exquisitely written out. 9781843682165
Insurgency and the Artist explores not merely how Indian printmakers and artists responded to the freedom struggle but rather how the art they fashioned invoked their own conception of the nation, their sense of the past, and the contours of the movement for India’s emancipation from the yoke of colonial oppression. Recent scholarly work has been almost entirely riveted on nationalist prints, and much of it has focused on the idea of Bharat Mata, but this book seeks to furnish a more rounded account of the artwork— including etchings, paintings, woodblocks prints, and cartoons—contemporary to the freedom struggle and also highlights the work of neglected artists such as Babuji Shilpi, S.L. Parasher, Zainul Abedin, and M.V. Dhurandhar, among others.

Shahjahanabad Mapping a Mughal City
Swapna Liddle,
Pramod
Kapoor, Sneha Pamneja
Delhi’s Shahjahanabad was first founded as an empire’s capital at the glorious height of the Mughal dynasty; from this vantage point, it was also witness to the empire’s decline and eventual extinction. The city would transform profoundly in the aftermath of the Revolt of 1857, with many of its neighborhoods and buildings obliterated, and many of its inhabitants, including the Mughal emperor, Bahadur Shah Zafar, having left, never to return. Fortunately, a mapmaker, working in 1846, painstakingly depicted important buildings, streets, and landmarks, providing a wealth of information about the city as it had evolved up to that time.
Addie Herder Machines for Living
Amy Galpin
Addie Herder created small-scale collages for which she relied on compositional principles of balance and dynamism. These rigorous, found paper compositions, earned the artist well-deserved respect from other artists, dealers, and collectors. Although Herder’s work invites comparisons with well-known artists like Joseph Cornell, she eschewed prevailing 20th-century artistic trends such as painterly abstraction, minimalism, and conceptualism. This beautifully illustrated book, the first to examine the art of this dynamic artist, introduces her multilayered practice to new audiences and offers a critical analysis of her intricate and intriguing “assemblage” constructions and ephemera.
Form and Surface African Ceramics from the William M. Itter Collection
Allison J. Martino
This richly illustrated volume highlights one of the most significant collections of African ceramics in the United States, distinguished for its breadth and representation of women’s excellence in ceramics. Collected by William M. Itter, Professor Emeritus of Fine Arts at Indiana University, the scope of the collection is wide-ranging, representing sixty-five different ethnicities and more than twenty countries in Africa. Illustrating a range of approaches to art making, the works are organized around topics that explore place, time, artistic media, and cultural identity and addressing issues related to cross-cultural exchange, cultural diversity, embodiment, temporality, and spirituality. Organized by the Sidney and Lois Eskenazi Museum of Art at Indiana University, this beautifully designed book celebrates the remarkable work and contributions of women artists.

Impressions of Oman & the Gulf
Nineteenth-Century Sketches by Charles Golding Constable
J.E. Peterson, H.E. Jamal alMoosawi
Artists have long been drawn to Oman’s picturesque settlements and dramatic landscapes. During the 1840s and 1850s, Charles Golding Constable, second son of the British painter John Constable, made a series of watercolor sketches of coastal Oman and other locations in the Gulf in his role as a maritime surveyor for the East India Company. This large-format volume reproduces 29 of his watercolors, along with his acclaimed 1860 chart of the Gulf, and a full facsimile and transcript of the commonplace book that he kept on his voyages. This collection is on long-term loan from Sheikh Fahad bin Abdullah bin Ali al-Araimi at the National Museum – Sultanate of Oman.

Elias Wessel Aesthetics of Conflict
Elias Wessel
In an age of fast-changing technologies, offering numerous ways of generating images, Elias Wessel challenges the conventional definition of a painting: he creates his “paintings” without resorting to traditional painting techniques and eschews classical genres. The artist’s abstract paintings – which in many ways show connections to painterly practices – are in fact made up of photographs and digital material.

Rembrandt in a red beret: the vanishings and reappearances of a self-portrait follows the fortunes of a fascinating painting along two lines. First is the history of the painting as a precious collector’s object, a story almost too unlikely to be true. In 1823 it was bought by the future King Willem II as one of his first purchases for the greatest collection of paintings ever assembled by a Dutch individual. For nearly a hundred years it remained with his heirs, coming to Weimar. Then, in 1921 it was stolen from the Weimar Museum, to turn up in 1945 in Dayton, Ohio, owned by a man who said he bought it in 1934 from a German sailor on the New York waterfront. What followed is revealed in this book for the first time, based on declassified U.S. government information.

Masks from Leinuo
Zhang African Art Collection
Introduction by Marco Riccòmini
The masks in this book, all presented by two or more images, are accompanied by brief commentaries that offer readers — be they scholars or enthusiasts — an insight into these veritable masterpieces of African art, which in most cases boast an exceptional pedigree, having been included in the most important international collections of extra-European art. Even though the works with which Zhang has chosen to surround himself are not all extraEuropean, as Marco Riccòmini explains in his introduction, offering a broader framework for the interpretation of Zhang’s esthetic choices, we have chosen to devote this elegant and carefully crafted publication to a specific aspect of African material culture.
West African Bronze Masterworks The Syrop Collection Preface by Susan Kloman
Long awaited by collectors, scholars, and enthusiasts, this book illustrates the bronze pieces, most of which have never before been published, collected by Syrop during more than 40 years of passionate, attentive, and untiring research. An architect by profession and a collector by instinct, Arnold Syrop was a pioneer for his interest in this particular area of African material culture, developing what Susan Kloman in her introduction calls “one of the best eyes” in the field of African bronze artifacts. As remarked by the author/collector in his preface, these bronzes are for the most part “spiritual in nature,” their function being to protect and give strength to their owner.

Unborn Architecture Projects that Never Saw the Light.
1983-2023
Carlo Terpolilli
This book has been designed to present several Ipostudio architecture projects produced in different periods that feature assonances and shared conceptual characteristics and principles. Ipostudio is a working group that was founded in Florence 40 years ago. It carries out architectural design in the sphere of civil architecture, specializing in the areas of social and health structures, schools, special types of residence, and social housing. The works presented in this book are unborn projects that never saw the light. Now, many years later, it seems only fair to give them another chance and, in a sense, a new life. The book is divided into six chapters addressing various aspects of architectural composition through the critical interpretation of a series of works.
Crafting Character
The Architectural Practice of CHYBIK + KRISTOF
Edited by François-Luc Giraldeau, text by Adrian Madlener,
foreword
afterword
by Aaron Betsky,
by Noor Al Qayem
The book addresses how the discipline can be used as a practice of human centered architecture. The book presents architecture as a spatial dialogue and an exchange between character and audience, book and reader, building and city. Fourteen cinematic vignettes highlight projects as personified characters that have their own histories, dreams, secrets and stories to tell. Each vignette emphasizes this relational culture and the practice of CHK in working with the common bonds within a space as more important than any individual arguments and divisions within it.
Labirinto della Masone
Franco Maria Ricci’s Bamboo Park and Art Collection
Franco Maria Ricci Editore
“People know me as an art publisher and graphic designer, but in recent years I have devoted most of my time to a completely different activity: the one of building a labyrinth. It wasn’t something I had expected since the beginning; and now in this essay, I would like to explain how it all happened” As Ariadne and Theseus came to know, you necessitate strings to help you navigate into a maze. This book, as Franco Maria Ricci writes at the beginning, is a small tour du propriétaire by Ricci himself. His text, accompanied by the exquisite full-page photographs of Massimo Listri and Mauro Davoli, longtime contributors to the publishing house, describes a place that lives and transforms, a meeting point, a social venue linked to its region and cosmopolitan ensemble.

The original photographs and detailed design interrogations in this book look at the way the capital is responding to the ever-pressing need to build with the environment foremost in mind – talking to the London architects, designers and residents who are creating a city that lives, works, plays and produces sustainably.

N. Mathur
Indian Railway Buildings takes the reader on a fascinating journey through some of the most iconic railway buildings in India — buildings that were, and still are, landmark structures.

Roman Baroque
Anthony Blunt
The Baroque, for many the most thrilling architectural style ever created, was born in Rome and reached its apogee in the work of three geniuses born in the 1590s - Bernini, Borromini and Pietro da Cortona. Perhaps the greatest student of the style was Anthony Blunt, who spent a lifetime studying and teaching the work of these architects and their importance to us now. This elegant and concise introduction to the style and its flowering in Rome was first published in an anthology of essays in 1978, not long before Blunt died, and represents a summation of his teaching. It is republished here separately, copiously illustrated with contemporary engraved views and measured drawings. Many of these ravishing images have not been republished since the beginning of the 18th century.

Atelier Scheidegger Keller
Workbook
Edited
by Quart Publishers
This volume compiles the buildings and projects produced by Atelier Scheidegger Keller since 2009. The collection is not a traditional architectural monograph but is instead comparable to the logbook of a ship’s voyage: all the particulars and the actions of the voyage are recorded here. Models, diagrams, codes, texts, maps, plans, sketches, mock-ups, building and detail plans, engineering and workshop drawings, building-site images and photo series all document the process, as well as the spatial, typological and constructive research involved. The result is direct insight into the multifaceted working methods and conceptual world of Atelier Scheidegger Keller. The four constructed buildings include the highly-acclaimed House with two columns in Wilen (2014) and the Rosengarten student accommodation in Zurich-Wipkingen (2020), with its raw materialisation and double-storey halls and loggias.
Brandenberger Kloter
Edited by Heinz Wirz
A series of residential buildings and four school buildings have been created by Basel architects Oliver Brandenberger and Adrian Kloter since 2011. They are all characterized by a virtuoso interplay of raw and finely crafted materials. The renovations are also characterized by a subtle merging of old and new. The most recent examples are the kindergarten and the school in Birrwil: here, concrete and wood were combined seemingly without hesitation, resulting in a harmonious, poetic expression.
Feine Fassaden Tektonik Schweizer Stadthäuser
Edited by Lando Rossmaier, Karin Ohashi
Form and resistance are the essence of all architectural work. This is especially clear in the interaction between the effect and construction method of façades. The architect Lando Rossmaier worked with students at the University of Lucerne to study the range of architectural means of construction and expression with respect to Swiss townhouse façades. This anthology presents a selection of around 80 buildings with sensitively developed tectonics, dating from the 20th-century to the present day, all of which have formed a backdrop for an urban way of life for decades. Like a manual, the effect is demonstrated using a photographic portrait and a description of the construction method, using detailed tectonic isometrics. The collection is supplemented by 10 projects by contemporary Swiss architects, with essays on their understanding of tectonics.

Giorgis Rodriguez
Didier Challand, edited by Heinz Wirz
Timothée Giorgis founded his office in Geneva in 2007 and was joined by Juan Rodriguez in 2015. Since then, a remarkable number of residential buildings and refurbishments have been completed, including a major facility with a municipal and school building in Satigny near Geneva. It is carefully embedded in the landscape with a calm gesture. The reserved developments reveal a refined, detailed architectural language.
Jaeger Koechlin
Edited
by Heinz Wirz
Patrick Jaeger and Ariel Koechlin have been leading their architectural practice in Basel since 2013. Here they have created a small school building in wood with a cheerful, warm appearance, several residential buildings and a number of conversions: for example, the Grünhagweg residential building in Liestal, in which the usual repertoire of forms of a residential building exterior is exaggerated and ennobled; or the Lysbüchel residential building in Basel, which has a raw appearance and whose floor plans allow for experimental variability.
Masswerk Architekten
Edited
by Heinz Wirz
Benedikt Rigling, René Bosshard and Matthias Baumann are the founders of Masswerk Architekten, which has been based in Lucerne since 2003 and in Zurich since 2008. In addition to residential buildings, a number of public buildings have been created over the years – in particular school buildings, retirement centers and municipal facilities – which are characterized by a broad architectural repertoire and meticulous design work. Two residential buildings in the middle of a city park in Lucerne appear sculptural in their reduced structures, with floor plans fitted intelligently and naturally into the building volumes. The Baufeld G complex on Europaallee in Zurich, a significant urban development, inscribes itself unobtrusively in the cityscape with its rhythmic façades. To be completed in 2021.

In 2012, he founded his own office, saas, in Geneva and has since realized several smaller, exquisite buildings that bear witness to an exceptional sense of construction: for example, an observation platform over the Rhone in Bernex, which - constructed in woodpointedly expresses architectural themes such as supporting, bearing and joining.

Architektur machen Schweizer
Architekturschaffende im Gespräch
Edited by Silvano Ursella
Swiss architects discuss the design process in a total of eight interviews. The interviews focus on the importance of architecture for the designers, how a task is approached, the value of the image, how building laws are addressed and how the challenges of climate change are handled. The interviews were conducted with Barbara Buser (Baubüro Insitu), Andreas Bründler (Buchner Bründler Architekten), Christian Kerez, Roger Boltshauser, Oliver Lütjens and Thomas Padmanabhan, Annette Gigon (Gigon Guyer), Steffen Hägele and Tina Küng (DU Studio) and Stefan Wülser. The different and sometimes contradictory attitudes of the architects reveal what architecture can be and how many different approaches there are. The eight interviews are supplemented by illustrations and plans that playfully refer to the architecture discussed.
Sollberger Bögli
Edited by Heinz Wirz
For each building presented in the volume, Biel architects Ivo Sollberger and Lukas Bögli describe a central idea that aptly symbolizes the project, referring to the buildings themselves, which carry a narrative force within them. The rows of seats at the new Stade de la Tuilière in Lausanne, for example, are housed in a mighty gestural shell. And the structure of the Raiffeisenbank in Sonceboz-Sombeval appears as an impressive, dynamicallystructured crystalline sculpture.
Stefan Wülser +
Edited by Heinz Wirz
For Zurich architect Stefan Wülser, architecture is not reduced to the craft of designing and implementing the design, but also involves thinking about its socio-cultural significance in contemporary society. With the house in Bassersdorf, for example, he developed a programmatic building that rises above an existing supporting structure in a direct, bricollage-like construction that is gestural and expressive.

Stocker Lee
Edited by Heinz Wirz
The Swiss Melanie Stocker and the South Korean Dong Joon Lee have been running their Studio d’architettura in Mendrisio since 2005. Over time they have created some remarkable, carefully developed buildings in Ticino and South Korea, such as the Ca’Ospiti apartment building in Rancate, whose structure appears like a reduced archetype that houses five cleverly-nested flats inside; or the equally stringent and minimalist Godung residential and commercial building near Seoul: in brick and exposed concrete, it also contains intelligentlynested rooms within itself.

Megacities Living in the World’s Largest Cities
Christoph Mohr, Bastian Barenbrock, Oliver Fülling
Megacities is a stunning tribute to the largest cities of our civilization. In this book, the three authors show everyday life in ten megacities in Asia, Africa, America, and Europe. They photographed city life in Rio de Janeiro, Mexico City, New York City, London, Istanbul, Cairo, Seoul, Shanghai, Mumbai, and Bangkok. More than 150 photos and numerous interviews not only show a deep insight into daily life there, they also deal with the central questions of urban planning. What is special about this book is the contrast in presentation: the photographers manage to depict wealth and poverty, culture and crime, tradition, festivals, customs, religion, and innovation in one go.

Stahlrohrrevolution!
Kálmán Lengyel, Marcel Breuer, Anton Lorenz und das Neue Möbel
Edited by Torsten Bröhan, Christoph Janik, Susanne
Engelhard, Bröhan Design Foundation
The tubular steel design of furniture designer Marcel Breuer (1902–1981) is considered an outstanding design style of the 20th-century. Yet widely unknown is the development of the first tubular steel prototype to its early series production. Breuer’s fellow compatriot Kálmán Lengyel (1900–1945), to whom this comprehensive publication is dedicated, played a significant role in this. In 1927, they founded the company Standard Möbel together, in order to organize the series production and distribution of tubular steel furniture. The development of the company and the work of Breuer, Lengyel, and the later director Anton Lorenz are depicted here in-depth with previously unpublished archive material.
Brand Experience & Trade Fair Design Annual 2022/23
Janina Poesch
It is definite: The trade fair is not dead; the trade fair is changing! And, going forward, this will not be the last time it has to adjust with agility to new circumstances. Designers will need to analyze the qualities of space again more closely – be it the physical space or the digital space: Space should be staged and designed so as to support communication, facilitate encounter and experience, create an immersive effect and, of course, provide content that adds value. But this also means that communication strategies need to be fixed beforehand, particularly if the focus is on positions and visions rather than products as in the past. It will be about connecting people with brands on many different levels in order to shape the future together.
Design Education in Germany 2023 Contribution to Public Value
Edited by iF Design Foundation, Christoph Böninger, Annette
Diefenthaler, Fritz Frenkler, René Spitz
Today, it seems more urgent than ever to focus more attention in design on the common good. This is because we are faced with the consequences of a design methodology that is geared towards the good of individuals wherever we look. The concept of public value seems ideal as a way of focusing design education more strongly on the common good: Public value is what the public values. The iF Design Foundation 2022 has carried out the present study in order to determine the public value of design study programs at German universities. This study provides a basis for encouraging and realizing a form of design education in Germany geared towards the common good.

Loewe. 100 Years Design History
Kilian Steiner, edited by Loewe Technology GmbH
In the iF ranking, Loewe is among the top 10 German companies awarded for exceptional design performances. The design historian Kilian Steiner distinguishes three historical phases: The first phase (1923 to 1945) marks the build-up and destruction of the Loewe brand. In the second phase (1945 to 1985), the focus was on the rebuilding of Loewe and overcoming numerous changes. The third period from 1985 onwards saw the rise of Loewe to an internationally renowned design brand. For the first time, the creative minds in product and communication design who contributed to the development of the brand are named and previously unknown details of the Loewe corporate history are revealed.
Retail Design International Vol. 8 Components, Spaces, Buildings Jons Messedat
Through the connectivity of different cultures, technologies and living environments, the retail sector is increasingly varied and experimental. At the same time, the uncertainties of the last two years have shown that free international trade between nations and continents is a fragile asset. Retail chains have been severed and the availability of energy and raw materials is limited. Creative stopgaps, as well as analog and digital elements that appeal to all our senses, give new impulses for urban retailing. On the way to a retail metaverse, high-touch meets high-tech.
Just Enough Design Microstories
Carlo Vannicola
A collection of insights, a series of hypotheses about the transversality and interdisciplinarity that characterize the process of creating design. A succession of micro-narratives that take reality as a source of inspiration. The evolution of materials and techniques, art and design, its authors and their works, aspects of form and type, of history and anthropology, psychological and social elements, all come together in a succession of consequential and hence inseparable reflections on the ’quantum sufficit’ to recount the complexity of designing in our times.

Retrotopia Design for Socialist Spaces
Edited by Claudia Banz
Along with urban planning and architecture, design played a central role in shaping the socialist future. On both sides of the Iron Curtain, it was above all the issue of housing that became the yardstick of the successful implementation of visions of a better world. Beginning in Berlin with its early housing exhibitions which took place in an atmosphere that was shaped by political rivalry and the pathos of progress, this publication focuses on the (post-)Soviet satellite states. It explores the socio-political dimension of housing and the role of design between utopia, power and gender discourses. In their texts, 25 experts from around the world present different designs and interiors.
MORGAN –The Collector Essays in Honor of Linda Roth’s 40th Anniversary at the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art
Edited by Vanessa Sigalas, Jennifer Tonkovich

Bissier und Bampi Das Freiburger Keramikbild
Maria Schüly
In the 1950s, a large number of internationally renowned artists created pictures made of ceramic. In 1956, in close collaboration with the artist and ceramicist Richard Bampi, Julius Bissier developed a ceramic work for the University of Freiburg. The abstract composition on a wall in the city center measures over 19.5 meters long by 2.6 meters high (64 × 8.5 feet). Its restoration and relaunch is occasion to examine more closely the story of its genesis. The distinctiveness of the artwork becomes clear against a backdrop of the cultural politics oriented on France in Freiburg after 1945. Unexpected parallels in contemporaneous ceramic murals by Fernand Léger, Joan Miró, and Victor Vasarely are revealed and make the Freiburg ceramic picture a unique work in the post-war art of Germany.

Claude Champy Stardust / Poussie`res d’e´toiles
Edited by Muriel Champy
The Frenchman Claude Champy (*1944) brings together man and the cosmos in his ceramics. In his studio, mechanical, geological, and chemical processes fuse to form a ceramic total work of art—guided by the barely visible yet influential human gesture. Despite the ceramicist wishing to capture the great forces of the universe in his work, he consciously consigns this part to trial and error, to an intentional loss of control, relying instead on the inherent logic of the material and fire. In Stardust Champy permits insights into his studio practice, his more recent artworks, and his work philosophy by providing commentary on his own sculptures and having them contextualized by experts. What results is a personal book on a unique artist, a retrospective on an oeuvre that is as powerful as it is elemental.
Johann Joachim Kaendlers und seiner Werkstatt zwischen 1731 und 1748
Sarah-Katharina Andres-Acevedo
Johann Joachim Kaendler (1706–1775) is regarded as one of the most prominent personalities in the 313-year history of the Meissen porcelain manufactory. His first three workshop employees, Johann Friedrich Eberlein (1696–1749), Johann Gottlieb Ehder (1716/7–1750), and Peter Reinicke (1711–1768), contributed significantly to the appearance of Meissen porcelain in the first half of the 18thcentury. The output of the workshop is the focus of the publication. A catalog on some 995 models has thus emerged, whose individual entries act as a history of each model’s creation. This catalogue makes it possible to view the porcelain figures in their chronological sequence of production, to comprehend their relationships, and to identify stylistic transformations.
Tunnel – Johannes Nagel
Works in Porcelain— Arbeiten aus Porzellan 2018–2023
Glenn Adamson, Esther Niebel, John White
The catalog Tunnel presents works from 2018 to 2023 by ceramicist Johannes Nagel (*1979). The majority of the objects were formed by the artist’s hands digging into sand to form cavities, negative spaces, which were then molded and revealed using liquid porcelain. By doing this, says co-author Esther Niebel, the artist imprints his own presence in to the objects. In addition to the extraordinary shapes thus created, expressive colors and the painting of the objects play a central role in Nagel’s work. Accompanied by essays, the excavated and cast pieces are presented in full-page photographs in a staccato portrayal of objects and ideas.

Early Chinese Blueand-White Porcelain The Mingzhitang Collection of Sir Joseph Hotung
Regina
Krahl
The Mingzhitang Collection of Sir Joseph Hotung is one of the finest collections in the world to capture the essence of early Chinese blue-and-white porcelain. With 20 outstanding examples, it concentrates on the first 100 years of China’s blue-and-white production, in the late Yuan (1271–1368) and early Ming (1368–1644) dynasties. The charisma and the energy of the masterly paintings on porcelain created in the Yuan dynasty at the kilns of Jingdezhen in Jiangxi province are represented with 12 exceptional examples, most of them unique. The collection equally documents the much more refined and sophisticated early Ming style of the Yongle (1403–24) and Xuande (1426–35) reigns, when production was closely controlled by an imperial court with exceptionally high standards.
The Lotus Pond Collection of Chinese Snuff Bottles Clare Chu
The owner of The Lotus Pond Collection first ran into Chinese snuff bottles in an antique store in San Francisco in 1993 and has been fascinated by them ever since. This collection covers mostly imperial porcelain and enamel on metal snuff bottles from the Qianlong period, mid-Qing imperial glass and jade snuff bottles, and some organic snuff bottles from mid-Qing. Others include bottles from Jingdezhen, Yangzhou and Suzhou Schools, Beijing glasses, inside painted and enamel on glass snuff bottles. There are also samples of Official School agate snuff bottles. The whole collection covers 500 plus snuff bottles.
The Magnificent Kunlun Jade The Songzhutang Collection of Ming and Qing Jade
Thomas Fok
The jade in this collection covers those which have never been buried underground, as well as excavated finds. Excavated jades retain their original palettes, and examples are found in the collections of international museums and institutions involved with archaeological excavations. In contrast, jades that have never been buried have gone through time suffering the effects of handling, dying, and exposure to air. These two aforenamed varieties have different qualities, and preference is a matter of a collector’s individual taste. Originally published in 2011, this new edition includes the collector’s most recent acquisitions.

Sky Blue, Winter Green, Moon White Five Hundred Years of Excellence at the Yaozhau Kilns
Regina Krahl
This Shang Shan Tang collection is one of the rare assemblages of Chinese ceramics specializing in Yaozhou wares. With over 100 examples, it is very likely the largest repository of its kind; covering an extremely wide range of Yaozhou artifacts of outstanding quality, including both classic types and highly rare specimens, it is uniquely suited to illustrate the kilns’ history. This catalog covers extremely rare black and white and celadon-green wares samples of Tongchuan kilns made Yaozhou wares from the Tang dynasty and Five Dynasties, and includes a magnificent and wide range of Song’s pieces.
The Wei Miao Shan Fang Collection of Chinese Snuff Bottles Vol. 1 & Vol. 2
Clare Chu
Jason Chen’s collection houses over 2,000 bottles, with a select portion shown in these two volumes. Volume I illustrates bottles from varying materials, while the second, slimmer volume shows part of Jason’s collection of miniature snuff bottles. While the whole collection is a work of art in itself, Jason, like other passionate collectors, has a story for every bottle, often the story of acquisition. Few collectors have dedicated themselves to forming a collection of miniature snuff bottles in the way that Jason has. For the most part, although collectors have affection for the smallest of the small, Jason has applied himself to hunting down and acquiring these minute treasures.
Michael Coffey Furniture Maker and Sculptor in Wood
Michael Coffey
Michael Coffey: Furniture Maker and Sculptor in Wood unsettles the conventional distinction between craftsman and artist, which is often assumed to be the difference between creating something new, as opposed to reproducing old forms. Inspired by but not beholden to artistcraftsmen such as George Nakashima, Wendell Castle, and Jack Rogers Hopkins, Coffey’s handmade, one-of-a-kind works seamlessly combine the irregular forms of nature, an aesthetic built on the variable and unexpected, with a deep sense for the haptic and functional qualities of wood. This book includes not only a generous reproduction of Coffey’s body of work, but also an in-depth autobiographical reflection on how his formative experience, from his rural and bohemian childhood to community organizing, and to the discovery of his passion for woodworking, moulded him into the sculptor and artisan he is today.

SALIR – Studio Ars et Labor Industrie Riunite Contemporary GlassDecorating on Murano, 1923–1993
Marc Heiremans
In 1924, five young Italians founded the Studio Ars et Labor Industrie Riunite (SALIR) with the aim of modernizing the ancient art of glass-decorating: Giuseppe D’Alpaos, Decio Toso, Guglielmo Barbini, Dino Martens, and Gino Francesconi. In 1928, the emergence of Franz Pelzel, a Bohemian glass engraver, and Guido Balsamo Stella, an all-round artist, marked the start of the production for which SALIR is most remembered today: contemporary glass-engraving. Based on the factory’s archives, Marc Heiremans illustrates the artistic evolution of SALIR through numerous drawings and period photographs. As well as being a catalogue raisonné, it is also an in-depth study shedding light on paramount developments in Murano’s glassmaking history.
Dead Souls Desire and Memory in the Jewelry of Keith Lewis
Damian Skinner, Keith Lewis
Since the late 1980s, American jeweler Keith Lewis (*1959) has been consistently tackling issues of Queer identity and politics in his figurative and narrative jewelry, including a groundbreaking series of memorial jewels addressing the impact of the AIDS crisis on himself and his community. Often witty, sometimes shocking, frequently erotic, and surprisingly moving, his jewelry is an act of remembering and witnessing, and a joyous assertion that desire and pleasure, wonderful ends in themselves, can collapse historical distance and connect the past and the present. Written by Damian Skinner and featuring four of Lewis’s artist talks documenting key preoccupations and series, this monograph surveys a bold, provocative, and ambitious body of work that deserves to be widely known.

The Art of Gold- and Silversmithing on the Edge of Reason: Vessel – Jewellery – Holloware
Ellen Maurer Zilioli, Cornelie Holzach
Contemporary gold- and silversmithing encompasses a vast range. Increasingly, a daring, (self-) critical, and inventive scene is edging its way to the fore, focusing on challenging the innovative expansion of classical forms and motifs of jewelry, vessels, and hollowware. Purpose, function, and our normative understanding of beauty are placed on a new footing through experiments with materials and performative stagings. Socially relevant considerations and artistic references inform the objects’ designs and are an invitation to an entertaining yet recondite “tour de plasir” featuring some 150 works by 28 artists—proof once more of gold- and silversmithing’s controversial creative potential today.

Jakob Bengel, Oberstein
From Art Industry to Jewellery Design
Edited by Jakob Bengel-Stiftung
The discovery of the Oberstein company Jakob Bengel as a prominent jewelry manufacturer has liberated Oberstein from the stigma of being the ‘underdog’ of the German jewelry industry. Wilhelm Lindemann and Christianne WeberStöber document in this current study its independent contribution to the evolution of early German jewelry design between 1910 and 1933 using Bengel as an example. Highlights from the collection of Drs. Margarete and Heribert Händel, hitherto unpublished pieces of Bengel jewelry, and contemporary designs attest to the exceptional level of production as part of the reformist ideas of the Deutscher Werkbund, the German Schools of Art and Crafts, and the Bauhaus.
Paula Straus Vom Kunsthandwerk zum Industriedesign
Edited by Monika Sänger
The German silversmith Paula Straus (1894–1943) was a pivotal figure in shaping the “Golden Twenties” and the creative decades of the Bauhaus. In joining the design studio of the silverware factory Peter Bruckmann & Söhne, Heilbronn, in 1925, an unparalleled career began as Germany’s first woman industrial designer. The silverware she designed — coffee and tea services — for handcrafted as well as machine production stands as an example of her own original style, which is defined by a purist idiom. Her professional success and her renown as a craftswoman and designer have been completely forgotten due to the national-socialist persecution of the Jews from 1933 and her murder in Auschwitz. The time has now come to rediscover her work.

The Vinson Collection of Indonesian Textiles
Glenn Vinson
The textiles here have been organized by several broad categories, beginning with type, and then by area of origin, dating and style. First are ikats and prints from India: the ikats woven in silk as “double ikats” and known as patola, and two prints that are cotton chintz. Next are ikats and other woven textiles organized by origin, moving West to East, from Sumatra to Borneo, Sulawesi, Bali, and Timor. Lastly are batiks, mostly from Java. The first three are the oldest batiks in this collection, each of which has been analyzed by radiocarbon dating and found to originate in the 17th and 18th centuries. This collection of Indonesian textiles and some related Indian textiles came together in a series of collecting periods spanning nearly 40 years.

Taschenuhrständer Porte-Montre PocketWatch Stands
Eine süddeutsche Privatsammlung
Bernd Bauer
For almost 300 years, pocket watches were important accessories for the nobility and middle-classes. In order to store the watches securely and stylishly, artfully designed stands that matched the wearer’s interior were developed and were an impressive reflection of the history of European art and culture from the Baroque to the early 20th-century. The stands ranged from miniature versions of grandfather and mantle clocks to one-off works of art made from wood, ceramic or metal. This publication provides a first representative overview of some 450 objects from a unique private collection in southern Germany, documenting its wealth of designs, which encompass a large repertoire of Christian, mythological and political themes. Scholarly texts on the history of the objects, their designs, and restoration issues make this an indispensable standard work in this field.
Robert Capucci Roberto Capucci, Antonio Marras, Sylvia Ferino-Pagden
Roberto Capucci’s clothes are immediately recognizable: architectural structures where color is the protagonist and almost seems to sculpt the material into creations. Thirty years ago, in 1993, the fabric creations were given to Franco Maria Ricci for a volume in the series Luxe, calme et volupté. This anniversary was the catalyst for organizing the exhibition and breathing new life into the texts of the volume, which is enriched by an updated text by Sylvia Ferino, which offers a glimpse into the Maestro’s most recent works, together with Marras’ introduction.
Iris van Herpen Sculpting the Senses
Iris van Herpen, Cloé Pitiot, foreword by Tilda Swinton
Sculpting the Senses offers an overview of Iris van Herpen’s work over the past 16 years. It not only shows the most iconic designs, but also explores her forwardlooking vision of fashion on a deeper level. On the basis of 100 dresses, it becomes clear how much the designer challenges our vision of “Haute Couture”. Sculpting the Senses immerses you in Van Herpen’s sensory universe and unites fashion, contemporary art, design and science on the basis of nine themes that together form the essence of Van Herpen’s work.

Echo Wrapped in Memory
Elisa De Wyngaert, Lou Stoppard
The essays and interviews in this book – published in conjunction with the exhibition Echo - explore the personal, universal and tactile memories of baby, child and motherhood, aging and nostalgia, handmaking and repair, and both the physical and emotional memories of clothing. The book features precious childhood drawings by designers Martin Margiela, Christian Lacroix, Mikio Sakabe, Bernhard Willhelm, Simone Rocha, Jean Paul Gaultier, amongst others. Alongside contemporary art and fashion, Echo sheds a unique light on the idea of the private, domestic, and quotidian by including ‘imperfect’ garments from the MoMu Collection: garments that reveal the presence of their previous wearers, that tell stories of a life lived, of scars, sweat, tears, and joy.

The Color of Light
Joël
Denot
Joel Denot (b.1961) is a French photographer. His images are centered on the essential elements of photography: light, color and shape. They are neither figurative nor abstract, with colored surfaces floating in a void, framing each other and projecting shadows of overlapping colors: orange then pale pink then blue then bright pink; red then green then pink then grey-blue. Produced entirely during the shoot, they are a purely photographic gesture, created without laboratory work. This is the first monograph on his career.
Verso Reverso Patricio Reig
This volume marks the publishing debut of the Spanish-Argentinian photographer based in Milan, Patricio Reig, and introduces one of the artist’s preferred subjects: the female portrait. Patricio Reig prints and sets his images on special oriental paper, folded over and over, and finally dipped in a bath of coffee and sodium thiosulfate. He has found the result intriguing ever since his very first experiments: fortuitous coffee stains become scars that denote each photograph, and consequently every story they tell. As he himself says: “A portrait is not the recording of a single identity, but rather the layering of many elements. For this reason, the image may be fragmented, pieced back together, or even folded over, and yet it never loses its essence.”

Heroes
Women in Snowboarding
Jérôme Tanon
Heroes: Women in Snowboarding is the product of two years’ work by photographer Jérôme Tanon, following some of the most dedicated female snowboarders around the world. It is a declaration of love, highlighting the culture, passion and dedication of female snowboarders. Though women’s snowboarding has developed radically over the last decade, few photographs celebrate the champions of the sport. Over two winter seasons, Tanon traveled the world to meet several snowboarders, hear their stories and photograph them in the streets, the parks and the backcountry. The sheer passion they put into their sport was instantly obvious. Shared here are personal stories and artworks by the snowboarders themselves.
Erwin Olaf & Hans Op de Beeck – Inspired by Steichen
Erwin Olaf, Hans Op de Beeck, Edward Steichen
Published to mark the 50th anniversary of Edward Steichen’s death, this book presents the work of two eminent contemporary artists, the Dutch photographer Erwin Olaf (b. 1959) and the Belgian visual artist Hans Op de Beeck (b. 1969). Art historian Ruud Priem, department head and curator of fine arts at the Musée national d’histoire et d’art in Luxembourg, came up with the concept and selected the works of Olaf and Op de Beeck, thus initiating a unique collaboration. It centers on the artists’ shared admiration for the oeuvre of the Luxembourg-born photographer Edward Steichen (1879–1973), and their mutual respect. The book juxtaposes Olaf’s series Im Wald with watercolors and sculptures by Op de Beeck and landscape photographs by Steichen.
The Endless Coloured Ways
Sanja Marušic
Intriguing self-portraits, desolate landscapes and vibrant colors: the DutchCroatian artist Sanja Marušic (b. 1991) creates new worlds with her images. Marušic’s artistic practice is guided by her love of experimenting with shapes, colors and layers. Photography is the starting point for each work, but she then uses a variety of analog and digital techniques, sometimes changing the image in such a way that it seems as if we are looking at a painting. The performances (staged by the artist herself), the creation of a set using handmade props, and the manual post-processing are just as important as the photo itself.

Havana de Cuba
Marzena Pogorzaly
Marzena Pogorzaly made two trips to Havana. There, she walked the streets of Havana Vieja and El Centro. Pogorzaly’s calmly gorgeous images are not directly concerned with politics, but as someone who grew up in pre-Solidarity Poland, she combines mature skepticism about communist regimes with due respect for some of its achievements. Her chief care is for people, either viewed directly or by means of the traces they leave: posters of Che Guevara, neglected chairs, rickety old American cars. Her photographs are entirely without sentimentality but rich in that tradition of humanism which sees the deeper qualities that unite us with strangers, as well as the surface differences that divide us. Her Cubans are not pathetic victims of a dictatorship but a handsome, vital, proud and resourceful people.
Atlas of Voids Kathleen Alisch
Presented in a tall leporello binding, Atlas of Voids features German visual artist Kathleen Alisch’s investigation into the emptiness of voids, inspired by tools of philosophy and science. In her work, she explores and questions the nature of reality and society and reflects our everyday habits of perception. This beautifully produced book features a slipcase with silk screen printing. “The emptiness of space, the silence which gives the form is fundamental in every aspect in our lives. The space between edges, between the beginning and the end, filled with nothing but energy.”
NOTLondon Focus on the Forgotten Anthony Dawton
When photographer Anthony Dawton realized how dramatically homelessness had increased in London, he took to the streets with his camera. For years he had taken photographs in areas of need worldwide, but after spending some time in his home city, he noticed how many people were living on its streets. He embarked on a new project to raise awareness for a city he no longer recognized: NOTLondon. Anthony Dawton photographs his subjects with a beauty and dignity that many of them are often denied. NOTLondon is a provoking campaign to help the city’s most vulnerable and to address the fact that, despite its wealth, the city is not providing for those most in need.

Chapel Schools
Thomas Kellner
So this book really has it all. Thomas Kellner’s 34th monograph is probably the most comprehensive content and artistic treatment of the history of chapel schools that has been published to date. The book embeds itself in Kellner’s culturalhistorical Siegerland works. “Thomas Kellner’s complex of works invites us to look with extraordinary perspective on architectural details, on the overall form, the dimensional relationships and proportions of the photographic reformulation, interest for the efforts and the importance of the education in rural areas, which is the cultural background, the “humus” of the architectural phenomenon of chapel school.” -

Nice To Ski You Quartet & Travel Guide
Peter Erlach
In 2022 graphic designer Peter Erlach had an idea: a quartet and mini travel guide presenting 32 legendary ski resorts and slopes, accompanied by the most important facts and figures. The selection of the 32 ski resorts is based both on the personal memories of the author, who grew up skiing in Austria, and on the destinations that are still on his wish list. Each ski area is presented on a map with a meaningful photo and all the important key data. Accompanying it there is a booklet, which deals still more in detail with the ski areas, and special attention lies also on the quality of the photos. All photographers are listed with their name and website, so you can also discover other impressive winter sports photographs.

Ingmar Björn Nolting About the Days Ahead
Ingmar Björn Nolting
In response to the first Covid-19 lockdown in the spring of 2020, photographer Ingmar Björn Nolting (*1995) embarked on a road trip through Germany. Traveling under strict security precautions, he covered about 15,500 miles over the period of one year. During these strange journeys across the country, Nolting created with his camera a personal and comprehensive document of life in times of global crisis.

Curves: Patagonia Argentina, Chile
Stefan Bogner
Ready for a trip to the ‘end of the world’? Patagonia stands for infinite and aweinspiring landscapes, glistening glaciers and majestic peaks. Exclusively for the Curves magazine, photographer Stefan Bogner explored the most beautiful scenic roads of this unique area. Marvelous aerial views show exciting routes right in the middle of nowhere. No matter whether you’re driving casually through the wild steppe in your caravan or prefer the thrills of winding roads with breathtaking views: The extraordinary nature experience makes your trip most certainly an unforgettable journey.
Curves: Germany’s Coastline | Denmark
Stefan Bogner
You do not need to go to California for scenic coastal roads or relaxed cruising - not when you have that right on your doorstep in Europe. Instead of chewing gum, eating burgers and drinking CocaCola, your traveling companions will experience licorice, tea and shrimp rolls - and, of course, Porsche. In the latest Curves volume, Stefan Bogner travels the German coastline from von Emden to Hamburg, visits the North Frisian island Sylt, and takes a trip to Denmark. From Klitmoeller he goes to Copenhagen and Lübeck. The journey comes to an end in between seaside resorts and chalk cliffs on Rügen, an island in the Baltic.
Curves: Malaysia
Stefan Bogner
The Thailand issue (ISBN: 9783667118370) revealed that Curves has a passion for Southeast Asia. With this edition, Stefan Bogner now heads to Malaysia. Immerse yourself in the colorful whirl of life, the diversity and exoticism of Southeast Asian cultures, the friendliness of the people, the food and the landscapes. But if you thought this country consisted only of beautiful beaches, turbulent cities and dense jungle, you need to be proven wrong: The islands and peninsulas between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean are excellent places to drive! Winding roads lead up into the mountains of the interior or palm-fringed along the coasts, swirling through the country as less frequented and often well-maintained driving pleasure hunters.

111 Places in Boston That You Must Not Miss
Heather Kapplow, Kim Windyka, photographs by Alyssa Wood
Faneuil Hall is fine and the duck boats are just dandy, but if you want to go beyond the Boston of brochures and get to the heart of this mysterious, charming old metropolis, you have to dig deep and be willing to get a little weird. 111 Places in Boston That You Must Not Miss is a guidebook with a twist: one that takes you far off the beaten path - and the Freedom Trail - to explore a side of the city that’s offbeat, unexpected, and completely fascinating for visitors and locals alike.

Elikann, Susan Lusk
New York, New York - a crazy quilt of evolving neighborhoods, trends, and tastes, and home to natives and newcomers of every nationality, ethnicity, and outlook. New York City’s history and grand ambitions live in every street, park, and hidden alleyway. This unusual guidebook invites the adventurous and curious to explore a wildly diverse selection of little-known places, including: a trapeze school, a giant Buddha in a former porno theater, a Coney Island sideshow, Louis Armstrong’s home, a Central Park croquet court, a Gatsby-era speakeasy, and a secret balcony where slaves worshipped 200 years ago. Play chess with the masters on a Midtown office-tower wall; have a pint at a legendary prizefighter’s hangout in Soho; whisper messages across a crowded train station.

Floriana
Peterson, photographs by Steve Werney
San Francisco: the home of hills and valleys, of dreamers and trailblazers, of hippies and hipsters. From the gold rush to the Golden Gate, the City by the Bay has always basked in the glow of its colorful and celebrated history and world-renowned landmarks. But for those who live and love on this compact seven-mile by seven-mile metropolis, San Francisco is a treasure trove of unusual neighborhood sights. Discover a stairway that transports you from the depths of the ocean to the heights of outer space; take a spin class amidst the grand elegance of a repurposed 1920s movie palace; or slide down a century-old sundial that sits at the center of what was once California’s first racetrack for cars.

The Art of Rock Covers Best-Of Collection
Vol. 01
Bernd Jonkmanns, Oliver Seltmann
Rock music serves as a generic term for music styles that have emerged since the late 1960s. Parallel to the emancipation of the long-playing record from the single, a completely new treatment of the record sleeves developed from the mid-1960s, which had never existed before in any music genre. An art form of its own emerged for which credit needs to be given to Klaus Voormann and Peter Blake for the Beatles, Storm Thorgerson for AC/ DC, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd as well as Doug Johnson for Tina Turner or Judas Priest. For this tear-off calendar, we’ve selected 365 of the most iconic rock album covers of the last six decades. And the hit: with the printed SPOTIFY codes, every album can of course be played anywhere and immediately.
The Art of Vinyl Covers 2024
Bernd Jonkmanns, Oliver Seltmann

Now the world’s first tear-off calendar with 365 vinyl covers from the last five decades will be published in the sixth issue. Including famous and less known artists of all genres, true classics but also scurrilities. In addition to the daily music inspirations and eye candies, all responsible cover photographers, illustrators and art directors are mentioned. A must-have for all vinyl lovers and design nerds! And the best: with the printed Spotify Codes, every album can be listened to immediately and anywhere.

They’d None of ‘em Be Missed
Richard Suart, A. S. H. Smyth
Richard Suart, heir to the great Gilbert and Sullivan singers of the past, has made the role of KoKo, Lord High Executioner, his own. Over the last 20 years his topical version of the Little List song has become a focus of audience expectation and hilarity. In this book, he looks back over the Lists that have raised such laughter at the Coliseum and at the history of this immensely malleable song, taking in previous performers such as George Grossmith, Martyn Green, Groucho Marx, Frankie Howerd and Eric Idle - not to mention poets as varied as John Hollander and Tim Rice. Illustrated with 56 colour and 45 black & white illustrations, many never previously reproduced, this is a delightful biography of one of the most entertaining songs in the English language.
Conversations With Rossini
Ferdinand Hiller, Richard Osborne
The conversations the 63-year-old Rossini had with Ferdinand Hiller in Trouville in Normandy in September 1855, and the finely drafted impression of Rossini himself with which Hiller prefaces the conversations, will be of exceptional interest to all music lovers. No other single source offers so vivid a sense of Rossini the man and the musician, not to mention the many composers, performers, and people of influence he knew and met. This is the first complete publication of the conversations in English.
Mikado Memories
Richard Suart
“The audience should feel as they come out of this show that they have over-eaten an enormous cream meringue”.
Jonathan Miller’s ambition was completely successful, and his Mikado has been revived umpteen times in London and played in LA, Houston, New York and Venice. It brought together some of the finest stage talents of its time, and revolutionized Gilbert and Sullivan. Richard Suart, iconic incarnation of KoKo, Lord High Executioner, celebrates this landmark production in all its variations over the years, with his unmistakable wit and humor, and deep understanding of the stagecraft of opera and the history of G&S. Over 200 photographs take the reader on a unique journey into the heart of a theatrical masterpiece.

Elegies of Love
Ovid, illustrated by Auguste
Rodin, translated by Christopher Marlowe
Never reprinted since their first, posthumous appearance in 1935, these woodcuts were the only printed versions of his work to receive Rodin’s full approval. Mostly self-educated, Rodin was a passionate re-reader of his favorite books, and Ovid’s Love Elegies occupied a special place in his imagination. These woodcut illustrations were taken from the astonishingly free and improvisatory life drawings he made in his later years. For many people these are the most entrancing manifestation of his genius. Privately published in 1939 in a very strictly limited edition, these 31 beautiful images are very rarely seen. This edition marries Rodin’s illustrations to Christopher Marlowe’s glittering translation, which was ceremonially burnt by the Archbishop of Canterbury in 1599.
Inn of the Few Katherine Preston
In the dark days of 1940, at the onset of the Battle of Britain Churchill’s ‘Few’, the brave fighter pilots who battled over the skies of Southern England, found a haven in the White Hart Inn in Brasted, where they could escape the traumas of war for a few hours. The landlords Kath and Teddy Preston were there to share in the hopes and fears, the elation and sorrow of the men who lived their lives on the edge daily. Inn of the Few is a tale of those precarious days, an insight into life at the White Hart and its famous visitors. The book includes fascinating anecdotes and archive photographs and documents of a momentous time in history, in which local lives gained national significance.
Mr. Whistler’s Ten O’Clock
J. A. McNeill Whistler, Margaret Macdonald
Whistler was one of the most original, if also tirelessly self-promoting artists of the later 19th century. After his disastrous run-in with John Ruskin, the greatest critic of the previous generation, Whistler poured his thoughts and feelings about art into this lecture, which made him if anything more notorious, but was also widely admired for its insights and wit. It is reproduced here exactly as he had it printed, with an essay by the leading scholar Margaret MacDonald putting it into the context of Whistler’s career and times.

Marriage of Inconvenience
Robert
Brownell
Effie Gray was an innocent victim of a male-dominated society, repressed and mistreated. Or was she? John Ruskin, the greatest art critic and social reformer of his time, was a callous misogynist and upholder of the patriarchy. Or was he?
John Everett Millais, boy genius, rescued the heroine from the tyrannical clutches of the husband who left his wedding unconsummated for six years. Or did he? What really happened in the most scandalous love triangle of the 19th century? Was it all about impotence and pubic hair? Or was it about money, power and freedom? If so, whose? And what possibilities were there for these young people caught in a world racked by social, financial and political turmoil? The accepted story of the Ruskin marriage has never lost its fascination.

The Worlds of John Ruskin
Kevin Jackson
Ruskin is one of the most influential and exhilarating writers in English. Art critic, architectural visionary, social reformer, climate warner and incomparable teacher; Ruskin’s words not only transformed Victorian England but speak to us with increasing urgency today. This, the first general introduction to Ruskin for many years, places him in the social, economic and aesthetic world of Victorian Britain that he transformed - and shows how this transformation has much to teach us today. The extensive illustrations range from private notes and lecture diagrams to presentation drawings, including some of the most beautiful images of the 19th century and many never before published. Published in association with the Ruskin Foundation.

Biography 157
Coles to Jerusalem A Pilgrimage to the Holy Land with Reverend Richard Coles
Kevin Jackson, Reverend Richard Coles
On Easter, 2014, Britain’s best-loved vicar, the Rev. Richard Coles, led a pilgrimage to all the major historic sites of the Holy Land: from Nazareth and the Sea of Galilee in the North, via Jericho and the Jordan River, to Bethlehem and, finally, Jerusalem. All of the pilgrims in his care were practicing Christians, except one: the writer Kevin Jackson, a diffident and sympathetic atheist intrigued by the chance to take part in this modern-day version of an ancient act of piety, and to learn some more about his old friend, the media clergyman. Coles to Jerusalem is Kevin Jackson’s light-hearted diary of that pilgrimage, and a close-up portrait of Richard Coles both as priest and as man.

158 Biography
Paris Souls Unexpected Histories of the City of Light
Dirk Veighe
In this book, reality always trumps fiction, truth always trumps myth. Get ready for a personal encounter with police inspectors and filles à la cuisse légère, Impressionists and art thieves, collaborators and résistants, Cubists and anarchists, artists’ models and terrorists, criminals and executioners. In fascinating and often unknown stories, such as ‘The Chanel-Wertheimer Case’, ‘Lenin’s Yellow Jersey’ and ‘Selling the Eiffel Tower’, hundreds of Parisian souls are brought back to life behind the façades, in the passages, and along the avenues and boulevards of the City of Light. Dirk Velghe recounts facts and stories about the extraordinary people and events that colored Paris, sometimes with paint, sometimes with blood.
Why Europe? An Integration History From A(denauer) to Z(elenskyy)
Steven Van Hecke, Kamiel Vermeylen
Will Ukraine ever be an EU member? Why don’t we have a European army yet? Does crisis make the EU stronger? The European Union has great influence on the lives of its citizens. That situation can prove to be controversial. Decisions made by the EU often lead to misunderstanding and resentment. Aside from these controversies, it is clear that the Union today, is the result of a myriad of choices by policy makers throughout the years. A better understanding of these choices and of the recent history of the EU allows us to better grasp its impact, and offers insight into why certain subjects are harder to place. Why Europe? offers a historical as well as thematical insight into the development of the European Union.
Ruskinland How John Ruskin Shapes our World Andrew Hill
Who was John Ruskin? What did he achieve - and how? Where is he today? One possible answer: almost everywhere. John Ruskin was the Victorian age’s best-known and most controversial intellectual. He was an art critic, a social activist, an early environmentalist; he was also a painter, writer, and a determined tastemaker in the fields of architecture and design. Part travelog, part quest, part unconventional biography, this book will attempt to map Ruskinland: a place where, two centuries after John Ruskin’s birth, more of us live than we know.

British Royal Tombs
Aidan Dodson
Aidan Dodson’s British Royal Tombs covers all the burials of the kings, queens (and lords protector) of England, Scotland and the United Kingdom, from the occupant of the great Sutton Hoo ship burial, to George VI, last Emperor of India, including of course the long-lost Richard III. This fully revised edition of a book that became an immediate classic of its kind will be equally interesting to the interested visitor and the student. The career of each ruler is briefly described, followed by what is known about his or her burial arrangements and the subsequent history of the tomb and its contents. Each tomb is illustrated as far as possible by at least one photograph or drawing. A list of monarchs, family trees and an extensive bibliography complete the book.
Maymyo Days Forgotten Lives of a Burma Hill Station Stephen Simmons
To many the words Hill Station are evocative of an exotic and exciting vision when the subjects of the British Colonial Government gloried in the Hill Stations of India and Burma. Beautifully constructed holiday towns built at 3,000 feet or more where people flocked to escape the heats of the plains. High up the Shan hills of east Burma stood Maymyo. This book tells the stories of the people for whom Maymyo really was a heaven ‘lost on the clouds’.
Banned & Censored What the British Raj Didn’t Want Us to Read
Devika Sethi
The book dives into the history of sedition and censorship in colonial India. Closely examining 100 texts that the British Empire banned, censored or deemed seditious, the work brings to life these lost gems from India’s freedom, cultural, and social movements. It includes writing by figures famous and obscure, of events immortalized and forgotten, by Indians and non-Indians, by people jailed and free, by politicians and missionaries, by travelers and novelists, and in several Indian as well as European languages. Each excerpt illuminates not just its author’s thought processes, but the times in which it was composed and circulated.

Change Can Be Child’s Play
The right mindset for leaders in a winning team
Yves Van Durme
Change management without clichés. Whether you are running a multinational or just running a family, change is not like a game of Monopoly, where your piece saunters sedately around the board from start to finish. Instead, it is much more like a game of Ludo, where you can have a number of pieces on the board at the same time, some of which are moving and some of which are not! This is just like in real life, because not moving is also a form of change management. With many years of worldwide experience, Yves Van Durme demonstrates how change can be much easier if you do not automatically regard it as a problem, but see it more as a question of the right mindset.

Great Minds Think Unalike
The Benefits of ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia and OCD
Peter Ampe, Emily Rammant
You can’t sit still. You don’t like unannounced visitors. You always triplecheck if the lights are out. But you also see details that no-one else notices. You’re always coming up with surprising solutions. You can focus intensely for hours at a stretch. Usually without realizing it. Many people lie somewhere on the spectrum of a neurodivergent condition. We often tend to focus on the many downsides of neurodivergent conditions such as AD(H)D, ASD, dyslexia and OCD. This book takes a different approach by looking in depth at the special talents that go hand in hand with these conditions.

Strategy in Turbulent Times
How to Design a Strategy that is Robust and Future-Proof
Kurt Verweire
Why Now? Because your prospects should have been customers yesterday
Michael Humblet
A board of directors can contain people from various backgrounds, gender, sexual orientation, disabilities, and still make the same mistakes as a team of only white men. Why? From a “nice to have” to a “must-have”, Diversity & Inclusion is nowadays a fashionable topic. Although most leaders are convinced of its benefits, some may not yet comprehend its potential. If the focus is on including “minorities”, then what should we do about personality profiles? This profile is not revealed at first glance. You need to be open to other viewpoints, resolve difficulties with patience, feel empathy for your stakeholders, allow them just to be... natural.
Companies face increasingly turbulent times. To what extent are the traditional strategy models still relevant to deal with this new environment? This new book presents how to analyze turbulent environments, how to build new strategies, and how to implement them. Through many case studies managers of large and smaller companies can learn how to successfully react to fundamental change. It covers these topics: 1. What is turbulence: disruption vs. disturbance. 2. Corporate foresight/sensing turbulence (incl. scenario analysis) 3. Choosing the right turbulence strategy 4. Implementing turbulence strategies
In Why Now? Michael Humblet teaches you how to create the right pitch to maximize your impact and speed up the conversion of prospects into customers.

Pneumopteria
Roland Boden
This publication is devoted to an academic description of the pneumopteria, a species which is considered extinct as a result of human action. Pneumopteria are also referred to as aerial creatures, cloud whales or cloud sponges, and occasionally, in scientific language, as pneumospongia. Often, in older treatises, they have been termed celestial leviathans. These gigantic, cloudlike creatures, which seem to float in the air without movement or stimulation, can reach several hundred meters in size. In his treatise, Boden presents photographs, reproductions, prints, reconstructive drawings, and computergenerated images, combining numerous real scientific and historical facts with completely fictitious elements to create a parallel reality that cleverly questions contemporary perceptual processes.

Light Monet at Giverny: A Novel Eva Figes
Reprinted for the first time in nearly 25 years, this shimmering short novel gives an extraordinary portrait of a day in the life of an artist at work and at home. In prose as luminous as the colors Monet is using to portray his beloved garden, Eva Figes guides us through the day, from the dawn (‘midnight blue-black growing grey and misty’) through midday (‘the sun was high now...shrinking what little shadow remained, fading colors, the pink rambler roses on the fence by the railway track looked almost white, and the grass had turned a tired yellow’) to evening (‘the tide of shadows rising as the sunset glow faded outside and the room grew dark.’).

The Life of the Robin David Lack, introduction
by David Lindo, afterword
by Peter Lack and Robert Gillmor
The robin was hardly understood when David Lack - Britain’s most influential ornithologist - started his scientific observations. This book is a landmark in natural history, not just for its discoveries, but because of the approachable style, sharpened with an acute wit.
