NEW FROM THE
Getty Icons of Style A Century of Fashion Photography Paul Martineau
The ripple of the hemline of a ball gown or an insouciant shoulder slipping off a coat—the aesthetic of fashion photography today seems a foregone conclusion. However, as much as clothing has changed over past century, so too has the way it has been captured on magazine pages and museum walls. This stunning exhibition catalogue explores fashion photography’s remarkable evolution and features artists such as Hiro, Richard Avedon, Herb Ritts, Man Ray, Bruce Weber, and many more. THE J. PAUL GETTY MUSEUM Hardcover £50.00
Artists and Their Books / Books and Their Artists Marcia Reed and Glenn Phillips
No medium is perhaps as variable as artists’ books—objects can be a single sheet of paper, a sculptural paperwork fashioned to look like a gemstone, or a book the size of several rooms. The defining quality of these pieces is the fact that they trouble the distinction between art and the book as object. This mesmerizing exhibition catalogue looks closely at eighty artists’ books in the Getty Research Institute collection to reveal their influence on Pop Art, Fluxus, Conceptualism, feminist art, and postmodernism. THE GETTY RESEARCH INSTITUTE Hardcover £40.00
Reims on Fire War and Reconciliation between France and Germany Thomas W. Gaehtgens
This book explores the bombing of the Reims Cathedral during World War I as a cataclysmic moment in the relationship between France and Germany, as well as the years it took to rebuild the social, scientific, artistic, and cultural ties that had existed between the countries previously. THE GETTY RESEARCH INSTITUTE Hardcover £45.00
The Art of Curating Paul J. Sachs and the Museum Course at Harvard Sally Anne Duncan and Andrew McClellan
From 1921 through 1948, Paul J. Sachs offered a yearlong program in art museum training through Harvard University that produced dozens of directors, curators, assistants, and educators for North American institutions. This book takes an in-depth look at the course itself and how it would shape American museums for years to come. THE GETTY RESEARCH INSTITUTE Hardcover £40.00
Dialogue on the Errors and Abuses of Painters Giovanni Andre Gilio Edited by Michael Bury, Linda Byatt, and Carol M. Richardson
Gilio’s text remains a key primary source for the discussion of the reform of art as it unfolded at the time of the Council of Trent and the Catholic Reformation. This newly translated and unabridged version of the Dialogue reveals the nuanced and provisional debates happening during this crucial era. THE GETTY RESEARCH INSTITUTE Paper £45.00
The Sistine Chapel Paradise in Rome Ulrich Pfisterer
This concise, informative account of the Sistine Chapel unpacks its complex history to reveal the remarkable unity of the images in relation to theology, politics, and the intentions of the artists themselves, who include Botticelli, Michelangelo, and Raphael. THE GETTY RESEARCH INSTITUTE Paper £19.95
