On Ugliness Edited by Umberto Eco

NEW

“Italian literary and cultural critic Eco opens this visually dazzling and intellectually provocative companion volume to his History of Beauty (2004) by arguing that ugliness has been defined through the ages only as the opposite of beauty. Eco attempts to go further in this analysis of ugliness—part history, part cultural criticism—which echoes premises from his previous survey: a correspondence between the public’s tastes and artists’ sensibilities must be assumed, and cultural and historical contexts determine how both beauty and ugliness are portrayed and received. Eco’s thoughts on ugliness in contemporary culture are the most interesting: in an age of goth and cyborg aesthetics, the boundaries between beauty and ugliness are perhaps permanently blurred. This unusual and eclectic study will appeal to cultural and art historians as well as to the general reader with an interest in a rarely examined topic.” —Publishers Weekly Rizzoli | HC | 978-0-8478-2986-6 | 456p | $45.00/$57.00C | E.C.: $22.50

The Lost Painting

A Natural History of the Palette

by Jonathan Harr

by Victoria Finlay

The fascinating details of Caravaggio’s strange, turbulent career come to life in this synthesis of history and detective story. Jonathan Harr embarks on an spellbinding journey to discover the long-lost painting known as The Taking of Christ—its mysterious fate and the circumstances of its disappearance have captivated Caravaggio devotees for years.

Discover the tantalizing true stories behind your favorite colors. For example: Cleopatra used saffron—a source of the color yellow—for seduction. Extracted from an Afghan mine, the blue “ultramarine” paint used by Michelangelo was so expensive he couldn’t afford to buy it himself. Since ancient times, carmine red—still found in lipsticks and Cherry Coke today—has come from the blood of insects. These and other true stories from the history of color are explored in this accessible and lively book. Random House | TR | 978-0-8129-7142-2 | 464p | $14.95/NCR | E.C.: $3.00

“…[T]his sure-to-be-popular account will lead general readers to a new appreciation of a long-lost masterpiece as well as of the potential excitement of art history scholarship and art restoration. Highly recommended.” —Library Journal

A Short History

Universe | HC | 978-0-7893-1524-3 | 960p | $34.95/$44.00C | E.C.: $17.50

by Paul Johnson The Renaissance holds an undying place in our imagination: its great heroes are still our own, from Michelangelo and Leonardo to Dante and Chaucer. This period of profound evolution in European thought is credited with transforming the West from medieval to modern and with producing the most astonishing outpouring of artistic creation the world has ever known. But what was it? In this masterly work, the incomparable Paul Johnson tells us. He explains the economic, technological, and social developments that provide a backdrop to the age’s achievements and focuses closely on the lives and works of its most important figures. A commanding short narrative of this vital period, The Renaissance is also a universally profound meditation on the wellsprings of innovation. “Abound[s] in interesting detail and idiosyncratic judgment.” —The New York Times Modern Library | TR | 978-0-8129-6619-0 | 208p | $12.95/$16.95C | E.C.: $3.00

Isms: Understanding Art

100 Masterpieces of Painting

by Stephen Little

From Lascaux to Basquiat, From Florence to Shanghai

In Isms: Understanding Art, Stephen Little of the Royal Academy of Arts in London offers a definitive guide to understanding the myriad “isms” that must be grasped in order to fully understand Western art.

by Michel Nuridsany

“Art history is divided into schools and movements, or ‘isms’—a suffix meaning practice or process—from classicism to naturalism to conceptualism, categories even the most informed of art lovers would be hard pressed to list or define. Enter Stephen Little of the Royal Academy of Arts in London and . . . Isms, a welcoming and cogent primer of Western art trends. Little helpfully identifies four types of isms: trends specific to the visual arts (perspectivism), broad cultural trends (romanticism), artist-defined movements (cubism), and retrospectively named movements (mannerism). He then moves forward chronologically, deftly defining more than 50 isms, naming key artists, and showcasing splendid examples.” —Booklist Universe | TR | 978-0-7893-1209-9 | 160p | $16.95/$23.95C | E.C.: $3.00

Contemporary Art in France by Catherine Millet Contemporary Art in France is a comprehensive review of the artistic movements that have taken place in France from the 1960s to the present.

Art Brut

Instant Art History

The Origins of Outsider Art

From Cave Art to Pop Art

by Lucienne Peiry and James Frank

by Walter Robinson

In the early 20th century, European avant-garde artists began to look beyond the accepted canons of Western art in a search for new sources of inspiration. “Primitive” art, drawings by children, the art of the insane, and graffiti all opened up new avenues for experimentation and artistic creation. This critically acclaimed book traces the history of the concept of Art Brut, a movement which has had a profound effect on artistic and social history. The account is completed by biographical notes on the featured artists and an extensive bibliography.

This title covers art from cave paintings to soup cans, profiling major artists like da Vinci, Rembrandt, Renoir, van Gogh, and the Impressionists as well as Dali, Matisse, Picasso, Kandinsky, and Lichtenstein along the way.

Women in Impressionism

100 European Masterpieces in American Museums

From Mythical Feminine to Modern Woman

by Pierre Rosenberg

Edited by Sidsel Maria Søndergaard

This book gathers together 100 paintings from every school from the 1400s to the early 1900s selected by the prominent art historian, ex-Director and current President of the Musée du Louvre, Pierre Rosenberg. As well as providing for each the name of the artist, title of the work, its dimensions and date, he addresses the provenance and conditions of its purchase and of its entry into the museum concerned.

The women in Impressionist painting represent the full spectrum of faces of the 19th century woman, from elite portraiture to working class scenes. Women in Impressionism examines the avant-garde position of the Impressionists, whose paintings represented a series of conceptual and historical shifts by depicting traditional, visual schemes with added new meanings, contributing visually to the breakthrough of the modern. Women in Impressionism begins with an examination of two works by Manet—La Maîtresse de Baudelaire couchée, 1862, and Portrait de Zacharie Astruc, 1866—and then traces the representation of women as it manifested in the work of the Impressionists in the 1870s and the early 1880s.

Dime-Store Alchemy The Art of Joseph Cornell

by Charles Simic Here Charles Simic, one of contemporary America’s most admired poets, reflects on the art of the homegrown American surrealist Joseph Cornell. In a work that is in various degrees biography, criticism, and sheer poetry, Simic tells the story of Cornell’s life and illuminates the hermetic mysteries of his extraordinary boxes—objects in which private obsessions were alchemically transformed into enduring works of art. Simic sees Cornell’s work as exemplifying a distinctively American aesthetic, open to the world, improvisatory, at once homemade and universal, modest and teasing and profound. Full of unexpected riches, Dime-Store Alchemy is both an entrancing meditation on the nature of art and a perfect introduction to a major American artist by one of his peers.

The Artistic Culture Between the Wars 1920-1945

NEW

Art of the 20th Century Volume II

Edited by Valerio Terraroli This second volume analyzes and presents the diverse world of artistic production between the two world wars, beginning with the environment that took shape in the immediate wake of World War I. The Artistic Culture Between the Wars is an interdisciplinary survey of this period’s changing artistic climate that included the re-emergence of a figurative approach (the New Objectivity), and the evolution of an avant-garde that is now historicized by its second-generation artists. Also considered are phenomena such as Surrealism, the change in taste from Art Deco to Novecentismo, and the expression of the totalitarian regimes during the outbreak of World War II.

History of Art by Jacques Thuillier History of Art is the first survey to recognize that the modernization and expansion of museum exhibition space over the past thirty years has increased the subject matter available to general students of Western art. How can one make sense of this rich history without being daunted by innumerable dates, places, and names? French scholar Thullier has created an equal balance of copious illustration with his superb critical text. He explores the art of each historical period by medium: painting, sculpture, and architecture. Filled with quality reproductions, this is the ultimate art reference book for students.

The Character and Conduct of Artists

The Avant-garde Movements 1900-1919

by Rudolf Wittkower and Margot Wittkower; Introduction by Joseph Connors

Art of the 20th Century

Edited by Valerio Terraroli This first volume in the Art of the Twentieth Century series examines avant-garde movements in the years between 1900 and 1919—the Fauves, the Cubists and others—both as complex syntheses of nineteenth century artistic culture and as alternatives to the traditional language of figurative art. The period examined starts with emblematic moments such as the Great Exhibition in Paris, which opened a century of technological marvels, and closes with the end of the initial phase of the Dada movement and the foundation of the Bauhaus school. Skira | HC | 978-88-7624-604-3 | 456p | $60.00/$80.00C | E.C.: $30.00

Born Under Saturn is a classic work of scholarship written with a light and winning touch. Margot and Rudolf Wittkower explore the history of the familiar idea that artistic inspiration is a form of madness, a madness directly expressed in artists’ unhappy and eccentric lives. This idea of the alienated artist, the Wittkowers demonstrate, comes into its own in the Renaissance, as part of the new bid by visual artists to distinguish themselves from craftsmen, with whom they were then lumped together. Where the skilled artisan had worked under the sign of light-fingered Mercury, the ambitious artist identified himself with the mysterious and brooding Saturn. Alienation, in effect, was a rung by which artists sought to climb the social ladder. Born Under Saturn is ultimately a comprehensive, quirky, and endlessly diverting resource for students.

Renaissance Art in France The Invention of Classicism

by Henri Zerner Harvard professor Henri Zerner focuses on one of the most dynamic and flamboyant periods in art history, the Renaissance in France. Renaissance Art in France explains how the school of Fontainebleau, in its exaggerated elegance and complex fantasies, combined French forms of medieval origin with the Italianate decorative style. It quickly came to represent a high point in the development of Mannerism and laid the groundwork for the invention of French Classicism. This volume showcases artists who excelled in the fine arts such as court portraitist François Clouet and sculptor Jean Goujon, as well as those working in decorative arts that also flourished during this period: tapestry, stainedglass windows, printmaking, and metalwork.

Becoming Judy Chicago

Lost History

A Biography of the Artist

The Enduring Legacy of Muslim Scientists, Thinkers, and Artists

by Gail Levin Born to Jewish radical parents in Chicago in 1939, Judy Cohen grew up to be Judy Chicago—one of the most daring and controversial artists of her generation. Her works, once disparaged and misunderstood by the critics, have become icons of the feminist movement, earning her a place among the most influential artists of her time. Early to reject the modernist move away from content in art, Chicago first mastered and then transcended modernism’s formalist austerity, before blazing a trail to the new esthetic now known as postmodern. Becoming Judy Chicago is a richly detailed and moving chronicle of the artist’s unique journey from obscurity to fame, including the story of how she found her audience outside the art establishment.

Although he based his work on a long tradition of biographical writing, Vasari infused these literary portraits with a decidedly modern form of critical judgment. Spanning the period from the thirteenth century to Vasari’s own time, the Lives opens a window on the greatest personalities of the period, including Giotto, Brunelleschi, Mantegna, Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Titian.

Damanhur

A History of Writing

Temples of Humankind

From Hieroglyph to Multimedia

By Esperide Ananas; Photographed by Roberto Benzi; Foreword by Alex Grey

Edited by Anne-Marie Christin

Nearly three decades ago, Italian spiritual leader Oberto Airaudi had a vision of sacred temples built inside a mountain near Turin. As artists, artisans, and builders excavated the equivalent of a five-story subterranean building, it remained a secret from even its closest neighbors. Twenty years after the project began, the Italian government received word of the burgeoning community and became suspicious, and Damanhur was ultimately discovered by the outside world. This handsome book offers a guided tour of the village, whose stunning murals, sculpture, mosaics, and stained glass draw from all sacred traditions to celebrate universal spirituality.

A Needle in the Right Hand of God The Norman Conquest of 1066 and the Making and Meaning of the Bayeux Tapestry

by R. Howard Bloch The Bayeux Tapestry is the world’s most famous textile—an exquisite 230-foot-long embroidered panorama depicting the events surrounding the Norman Conquest of 1066. It is also one of history’s most mysterious and compelling works of art. This haunting stitched account of the battle that redrew the map of medieval Europe has inspired dreams of theft, waves of nationalism, visions of limitless power, and esthetic rapture. In his fascinating new book, Yale professor R. Howard Bloch reveals the history, the hidden meaning, the deep beauty, and the enduring allure of this astonishing piece of cloth.

“Art does not produce the visible but makes visible,” wrote Paul Klee. This work examines and reinterprets this important principle—that writing does not reproduce speech, it makes it visible—through an in-depth history of writing across the globe, from ancient civilization to the modern day. Fifty-eight lavishly illustrated chapters present detailed yet accessible commentaries from a team of leading specialists in the study of writing. Together they explain and clarify the birth, evolution, and dissemination of over thirty key scripts and alphabets and their numerous derivatives. The breadth and scope of material covered, along with the detailed sources of documentation provided, make A History of Writing an essential and exciting new contribution to existing scholarship on this fascinating subject.

Monuments America’s History in Art and Memory

NEW

by Judith Dupré From the Alamo and Gettysburg to Mount Rushmore and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Monuments is celebrated architectural historian Judith Dupré’s sweeping tribute to classic American landmarks. The book tells the stories of real people—the ordinary and the renowned, whose lives, though immortalized, exist most fully in the mind and heart—and goes beyond historical fact to touch what is eternal and transcendent about humanity. Monuments features more than 200 stunning duotone photographs, as well as fascinating stories, rare illustrations, candid interviews with artists and architects, and a unique chronology of milestones in the history of time and memory. Random House | HC | 978-1-4000-6582-0 | 272p | $45.00/$57.00C | E.C.: $22.50

A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR OF MONUMENTS:

In Monuments, I take readers on an in-depth journey to dozens of American landmarks—many of which your students will know or have visited. I also explore historical events, including all major U.S. conflicts, that inspired each monument or memorial to be built and how their meaning has evolved over time. I think this book can be a valuable resource for your classes. The stories will intrigue students and place these significant monuments in context for them. The book also includes many beautiful photos—over 250 (please visit www.randomhouse.com/rhpg/monuments/ to view select images)—and an unusual timeline of milestone events in the history of our country. I hope you’ll consider including Monuments in your coursework. Judith Dupré writes books that bridge the worlds of art, photography, and architecture. Born in Providence, Rhode Island, she received degrees in English and Studio Art from Brown University, and subsequently studied at the Open Atelier of Design and Architecture in Manhattan. Currently, she is at Yale University investigating the impact of time, memory, and ritual on architectural meaning. Visit her at http://www.judithdupre.com/

by Annie Leibovitz “I don’t have two lives,” Annie Leibovitz writes in the Introduction to this collection of her work from 1990-2005. “This is one life, and the personal pictures and the assignment work are all part of it.” Portraits of well-known figures—Johnny Cash, Nicole Kidman, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Keith Richards, Michael Jordan, Joan Didion, R2-D2, Patti Smith, Nelson Mandela, Jack Nicholson, William Burroughs, George W. Bush with members of his Cabinet—appear alongside pictures of Leibovitz’s family and friends, reportage from the siege of Sarajevo in the early Nineties, and landscapes made even more indelible through Leibovitz’s discerning eye. The images ultimately form a narrative rich in contrasts and continuities in this fascinating look at one of America’s most intriguing photographers.

Axial Stones

Graffito

An Art of Precarious Balance

By Michael Walsh

By George Quasha; Foreword by Carter Ratcliff

For two years, author Michael Walsh immersed himself in the graffiti world of the San Francisco Bay Area. He took thousands of photographs, frequented train yards, went on all-night “bombing runs” with graffiti writers, rode with graffiti abatement crews, spoke with small business owners who are frequent targets of graffiti, and tracked down key city officials and personnel directly involved with graffiti removal. This powerful book ultimately delivers an unflinching account of a complex and controversial subject. Contains nearly 200 photographs.

George Quasha’s extraordinary sculptures unite natural stones in a state of breathtakingly improbable balance. The stones are not altered physically or bonded in any way; rather, Quasha discovers an unknown axis that brings them into radical alignment. The stones “learn” this state of levity in contrast to their ordinary state of gravity, resulting in a new art form that feels alive with its own individual energy and personality. Here, 37 axial stones are displayed in dazzling full-page color photos. The accompanying text explains not only how the stones were found and eventually came together, but explores the aesthetic, philosophical, spiritual, and practical implications of an art of danger and impermanence.
