La Cuisine EVERYDAY FRENCH HOME COOKING FRANÇOISE BERNARD TRANSLATED AND WITH A FOREWORD BY JANE SIGAL A culinary bible featuring 1,000 recipes from the legendary woman who revolutionized French cooking by simplifying recipes for the home cook. With the revival of interest in Julia Child, everyone is hungry for French food again. But why does French cuisine have to be so complicated? Well, it doesn’t. Not according to Françoise Bernard.
“Everyone knows someone—a mother, an aunt, or a friend—who owns a copy, either new or in tatters, of a book by this star of home cooking.” —Le Monde “In the 1960s, Françoise Bernard invented a new way of cooking, simple and free. Bernard returns today with the work of a lifetime, a brick of a book of 1,000 recipes, among her most delicious.” —Paris Match “What a great idea to give new life to this monument of our national cuisine, which is responsible for teaching several generations of women how to bring good food to the family table! . . . An eternal classic, definitely indispensable.” —Elle France “For generations, French home cooks have turned to Françoise Bernard for simple, straightforward recipes and down-to-earth kitchen wisdom, and now we can too. With this collection, the beloved Madame Bernard shares her vast knowledge of the everyday food of France and, as she has for millions of French cooks, shows us how to feed families and friends easily, economically, and deliciously.” —Dorie Greenspan, author of Baking from My Home to Yours and Around My French Table “Françoise Bernard has inspired so many Sunday suppers with my family—my aunts and grandmothers collected her recipes religiously. She has an incredible talent for understanding how you can cook delicious, original, yet simple and often very economical dishes for a real family celebration or for a quick but inspired meal.” —Eric Ripert, Executive Chef/Co-Owner, Le Bernardin
Beginning in the 1960s, Bernard revolutionized French cooking by writing cookbooks aimed at the modern woman. Until that time, the only cookbooks available were full of fussy recipes handed down by the grand chefs of the past. Bernard set out to make classic dishes accessible to everyone, paring down to a recipe’s true essence. She continued to publish and teach, building her forty-year career on the principle that good food can be simple, easy, and economical. This grand volume is the culmination of her work, a collection of the best, most tried-and-true recipes. Each recipe is labeled with degree of ease, prep/cooking time, and cost. The book overflows with charmingly homey recipes that take you back to the basics: onion soup, croque mignon, steak au poivre, coq au vin, tuna provençale, and potatoes boulangère. This is the ultimate reference book, not just for those who love French cuisine, but for anyone who craves simply delicious food. Françoise Bernard came of age in Paris during the Occupation, which taught her the importance of economy in the kitchen. Her first cookbook, published in 1963, Mes Recettes Faciles, has sold more than one million copies and is still in print. Jane Sigal is a contributing editor at Food & Wine and has written for the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and Fine Cooking.

Victoria Hagan INTERIOR PORTRAITS VICTORIA HAGAN The first book to survey the work of this iconic designer, known for her serene “new American classic” look. One of today’s most influential designers, Victoria Hagan exploded onto the scene in 1988 when New York magazine devoted the cover of its design issue to one of her rooms. Since then she has become renowned for her intelligent integration of architectural and interior design, her refined use of materials, her sophisticated color palette, and her strong silhouettes. Always looking to the view, Hagan effortlessly makes a close connection of interior spaces to the surrounding landscape. The houses profiled—ranging from elegant urban residences to casual weekend retreats—reveal Hagan’s unerring attention to what Proust called “the unexpected detail,” which makes her interiors beautiful as well as timeless. Throughout, Hagan discourses on the spirit of cherished objects—a print of birds in flight, a vintage star-shaped mirror, or a chair with an unusual silhouette—that add soul and modernity. With stunning photography and personal insights into Hagan’s design philosophy, Victoria Hagan: Interior Portraits is an artful and inspiring collection of this design superstar’s oeuvre. Victoria Hagan launched her eponymous interior design firm based in New York in 1991. She has been awarded many of the country’s top design honors, including Architectural Digest’s Top 100, and is regularly featured in magazines. A frequent speaker on design issues, Hagan has also made television appearances on Martha Stewart and Oprah. In 2004, she was inducted into the Design Hall of Fame.

Rihanna EDITED AND PHOTOGRAPHED BY SIMON HENWOOD The official visual chronicle of the year’s “it” girl as she embarks on her first solo tour. The millions of sites tracking her every fashion move, the innumerable magazine covers including the recent Italian Vogue shot by Steven Klein, her past endorsement deals including Gucci and CoverGirl—Rihanna is the reigning style icon of the moment. She has garnered multiplatinum–selling success as an artist (her current album, her fourth, Rated R had the highest first-week sales of any of her other albums in the U.S. to date), including Grammys, MTV Video Music Awards, and countless other awards for her performances. Creative director Simon Henwood captures the supernova at the height of her beauty and ferocity in hundreds of photographs that track her enormous influence on current trends and interaction with the world of fashion—from her performances in the most cuttingedge couture (such as Gaultier and Chanel, as well as in pieces from museum collections), to her relationships with the unknown but up-and-coming designers she personally champions, to her fashion shoot with Ellen von Unwerth in Berlin for her album artwork. This is a visually arresting capsule of one of the world’s most talked-about artists of the year. Born in Barbados, Robyn Rihanna Fenty was just 16 when she was signed to Def Jam. Her first album, released that same year, included the huge international hit “Pon de Replay.” She has since scored several more number-one hits as well as countless accolades. Simon Henwood is a multimedia artist who has served as creative director for several major artists, including Kanye West and Rihanna. His video for West’s “Love Lockdown” was nominated for an MTV VMA.

Carlo Ancelotti THE LIFE, GAMES, AND MIRACLES OF AN ORDINARY GENIUS BY CARLO ANCELOTTI WITH ALESSANDRO ALCIATO PREFACE BY PAOLO MALDINI The entertaining, revealing, and controversial bestselling autobiography of one of the most respected figures in the world of soccer. Carlo Ancelotti is one of only six people to have won the Champions League—European soccer’s most coveted trophy—as both player and coach. After a successful career playing for several of the most important teams in Italy—and for the Italian national team—Ancelotti went on to become one of the most acclaimed and outspoken coaches in European football, managing Italian giants Parma, Juventus, and Milan before moving to Chelsea, one of the Premier League’s most successful clubs, in 2009. The book moves from anecdotes of his life growing up in Reggio Emilia to stories of his time playing among the best footballers in the world. With a characteristic mixture of sharp insight and humor, Ancelotti explores the differences between the Italian and the English games, shares his thoughts on soccer’s future with the MLS in America, and reflects on the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. With a preface by the legendary former captain of the Italian national team, Paolo Maldini, this book is at once a tactician’s bible from one of the world’s most celebrated footballing minds, the fascinating story of an ordinary man reaching great heights, and in part a revealing tell-all from an outspoken insider in the cutthroat world of European soccer. The perfect book for anyone with a passion for the beautiful game. Carlo Ancelotti won championships as a player with Roma and A.C. Milan, and was a coach for Reggiana, Parma, Juventus, and A.C. Milan before moving in 2009 to London to manage Chelsea F.C. Paolo Maldini is one of the world’s most famous players. He has played under Ancelotti with A.C. Milan and alongside him on the Italian national team.

Quilts MASTERWORKS FROM THE AMERICAN FOLK ART MUSEUM ELIZABETH V. WARREN FOREWORD BY MARTHA STEWART PREFACE BY MARIA ANN CONELLI INTRODUCTION BY STACY C. HOLLANDER From America’s preeminent museum collection, this definitive volume places the quilt firmly in the realm of art. Combining economy with artistry and everyday craftsmanship with extraordinary beauty, quilts hold a unique place in American culture. Each quilt tells a story about its maker and her community; seen together, these monumental textiles paint a broad picture of the development of a national character and uncover the hidden history of women’s contribution to art. This volume brings together the two hundred most important examples from the esteemed collection of the American Folk Art Museum, many of which are shown here for the first time. Each masterpiece was chosen carefully as an emblem of its time, style, and technique. Concise texts introducing each chapter remain entirely accessible in tone and never intrude upon the full-page image reproductions and countless detail enlargements that reveal the intricate stitching and surprising dimensionality of the works. The American Folk Art Museum, New York, is the premier cultural institution in the United States dedicated to the collection, exhibition, and study of more than three centuries of traditional folk art and the work of international contemporary self-taught artists.

The How Not to Cookbook LESSONS LEARNED THE HARD WAY ALEKSANDRA MIR Learn what not to do in the kitchen from this hilarious collection of real advice by real people.
“When you have accidentally added dish-washing liquid to your salad instead of oil, do not attempt to wash it out and serve it to your children. They will be able to tell the difference. Even the teenagers.” “Never season a salad while holding a cigarette.” “While boiling pasta do not start two parallel chats on Facebook.” “Never follow online recipes. You cannot trust the person writing them.” “Do not look into a gas oven too fast after opening the door. Especially while wearing mascara—it will make your eyelashes glue together.” “Never start cooking before you’ve had a glass of wine, but do not start cooking after you’ve had your second glass.”
Sometimes the best way to learn is to make mistakes. That’s the premise of this book—a sort of anti-cookbook. Fed up with our prevailing food culture of patronizing celebrity chefs with their rigid and often impossible instructions, Aleksandra Mir started a website to invite real people to send in their kitchen disaster stories, so that the rest of us could benefit from their experience. The result was a viral Internet phenomenon. Home cooks from around the world streamed in with advice. One thousand of their tips were then collected in this humorous and ultimately heartening and cathartic book. The packaging is as funny as the content too; it tricks you into thinking you’ve come across a vintage workhorse cookbook that’s seen its share of abuse. Don’t look here for recipes to be followed slavishly. Instead, this is a book to dip in and out of, choosing from among the wide variety of little gems that are always idiosyncratic, often opinionated, and never boring. Many will spark debate. Some may not be so practical but are wickedly funny. But the best part of the book is its reassurance that it’s okay to be human, to make mistakes. Aleksandra Mir is an artist whose work has been exhibited at galleries and institutions such as the Guggenheim Museum, New York, the Royal Academy of Arts, London, ICA Philadelphia, SFMOMA, and the Whitney Museum, New York.
Praise for The How Not to Cookbook: “A dash of encyclopedia and a pinch of kitchen-cautionary tale.” —The New York Times “Fascinating insight into the kitchen mishaps of others. . . . utterly refreshing.”—The London Times “A brilliant and obvious idea in a world somewhat overstocked with books that tell you how to cook.” —The Guardian “Culinary slapstick at its best.” —Punch

Naked THE NUDE IN AMERICA BRAM DIJKSTRA A resplendent presentation of the nude in American art, photography, and popular culture, from the eighteenth century to the present. With more than four hundred color illustrations, this is the most thorough and wide-reaching survey of the representation of the male and female nude in American visual culture yet published. Bram Dijkstra explores the history of the subject from its earliest manifestations in the paintings of John Singleton Copley and Benjamin West to the taboo-shredding imagery of late-twentiethcentury artists such as Alice Neel, Robert Mapplethorpe, Eric Fischl, and John Currin. Dijkstra is a cultural historian who refuses to separate “high” and “low” art, charting instead such momentous historical events as the discovery of pubic hair, the invasion of the pin-up queens, “the inexorable rise of the breast,” and the puzzling fluctuations of American prudery. Naked also examines the effects of the early twentieth century’s infatuation with Freudian psychoanalysis and the more recent fascination of comic book art with the legacy of Bettie Page and her seemingly ever more muscular daughters. In chronological and thematic order, the book demonstrates the links between the work of some of the most famous names in the history of American painting (Chase, Cassatt, Hopper), sculpture (French, Powers), and photography (Cunningham, Weston), and that of the outlaw hordes of cartoonists, book-cover illustrators, and visual extremists who, particularly during the last half-century, were able to turn the United States into the world’s principal purveyor of erotic fantasies.

Bespoke THE MEN’S FASHION OF SAVILE ROW JAMES SHERWOOD FOREWORD BY TOM FORD A fully illustrated history of bespoke tailoring— the custom-made men’s clothing that made a small London street a globally known brand to generations of sartorial connoisseurs. Savile Row is renowned for fine custom tailoring— “bespoke” in its own parlance. The term originated when cloth for a suit was said to “be spoken for” by customers who have included generations of stylish and tasteful men, from rakes to royals. Bespoke is the epitome of male sartorial style, exquisite quality, and craftsmanship, and has been worn by a veritable who’s who of famous and important men: Winston Churchill, Cary Grant, Russell Crowe, David Beckham, and countless world leaders.

Houses: Modern Natural/ Natural Modern RON BROADHURST FOREWORD BY BARRY BERGDOLL An authoritative volume on the most innovative and environmentally sensitive new residential design. This carefully curated presentation of new and recent houses represents the vanguard of architects creating innovative structures that maintain a sensitive relationship to their natural contexts. Ron Broadhurst has selected projects on five continents demonstrating the inexhaustible potential of the modern house to enter into a dialogue with nature, either as an extraordinary object within the landscape or as an essay in environmental sustainability, or both. Featured here is work by such design luminaries as Kengo Kuma in China, Sean Godsell in Australia, and Allied Works Architecture in the United States. With exceptional color photography, the book presents houses created with sustainability and carbon footprint in mind, as well as houses constructed on spectacular sites. Some houses incorporate the cutting edge of environmentally sensitive design; some radically rethink the use of “traditional” materials such as wood and stone. A comprehensive collection, Houses: Modern Natural/Natural Modern demonstrates uniquely of-the-moment architecture and interiors and offers a vision of how we will think of the relationship between houses and the natural landscape in the decades to come. Ron Broadhurst was formerly director of communications for Richard Meier & Partners Architects and architecture editor at Rizzoli International Publications. He is the author of Next Houses: Architecture for the Twenty-First Century and coauthor of Imagining Ground Zero: Official and Unofficial Proposals for the World Trade Center Site. Barry Bergdoll is the Philip Johnson Chief Curator of Architecture and Design at the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

Women Then NEW YORK, PARIS, LONDON 1954–1969 JERRY SCHATZBERG TEXT BY JULIA MORTON AND GAIL BUCKLAND AFTERWORD BY FAYE DUNAWAY
A collection of rarely seen black-and-white photographs taken of women in the 1950s and 1960s, captured by the renowned New York City fashion photographer and filmmaker. Designed by Ruth Ansel, this elegantly produced volume captures the romance and glamour of women in the 1950s and 1960s. A mix of fashion and portraiture, it includes intimate and striking portraits of Nico, Faye Dunaway, Edie Sedgwick, Sharon Tate, and Catherine Deneuve. Jerry Schatzberg’s moody snapshots of a more innocent and whimsical New York on the brink of the important societal changes of the sixties form a compellingly nostalgic portrait of a stylish moment. Images of jetsetters at an airport terminal, lovers embracing in Central Park, and a woman waltzing in the street in the Financial District portray a time as well as a style. A New York City native, Schatzberg documented the period with the insider’s sensibility of Woody Allen or Martin Scorsese, but with the high-fashion style of Irving Penn and Richard Avedon. With a keen eye for the magic of the in-between moment, Schatzberg stealthily captured the elegance and beauty of a woman as her role was redefined in the sixties, while at the same time retaining an element of humor and surprise. Jerry Schatzberg has been published in Vogue, McCall’s, Esquire, Glamour, and Life in the 1960s, and has directed twelve films, including The Panic in Needle Park and Scarecrow. His last monograph, Paris 1962, was published by Rizzoli in 2008. Julia Morton has contributed to Artnet.com, Art Papers, and New York Press. Her artist’s book essays include Paris 1962. Gail Buckland is the former curator of the Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain and has curated many major exhibitions, including the recent Who Shot Rock & Roll at the Brooklyn Museum. She is a professor of the history of photography at The Cooper Union in New York. Faye Dunaway is an Academy Award–winning American actress.

The World of Madeleine Castaing EMILY EVANS EERDMANS FOREWORD BY JACQUES GRANGE PREFACE BY FREDERIC CASTAING The inimitable style of renowned French interior designer Madeleine Castaing, chronicled in-depth for the first time. While many were drumming to the beat of modernism in the early- and mid-twentieth century, French antiquaire and decorator Madeleine Castaing created her own look that was a unique blend of neoclassicism, Proustian romanticism, and pure wit. Her distinctive aesthetic vision has inspired tastemakers on both sides of the Atlantic, and her devotees—both then and now—are legion. Ocelot carpeting, opaline blue, “coolie” lampshades, and an eclectic mix of neoclassical furnishings ranging from English Regency to Napoleon III all formed part of the vocabulary of “le style Castaing.” This lavishly illustrated volume—the first on her work—explores indepth the elements of her style, and examines how she crafted interiors so emotive that visitors felt that they had stepped into a Balzac novel or a Proustian recollection. Her entire life and career are chronicled, from her early years in Montparnasse, the epicenter of artistic activity in Paris, to her incomparable country house Lèves and her legendary shop on rue Jacob in Paris. Emily Evans Eerdmans received her master’s degree in fine and decorative arts from Sotheby’s Institute of Art in London, and has pursued her passion for antique furniture while working for Partridge Fine Arts, Devenish, and Hyde Park Antiques in New York. She has written articles for the Furniture History Journal and Connoisseur’s Quarterly. Her previous books include Classic English Design and Antiques and Regency Redux. Jacques Grange is a world-famous interior decorator who worked with Madeleine Castaing in his early career. Frederic Castaing is Madeleine’s grandnephew and is an antiques dealer in Paris.

Handcrafted Modern AT HOME WITH MID-CENTURY DESIGNERS LESLIE WILLIAMSON An intimate and revealing collection of photographs of astonishingly beautiful, iconic, and undiscovered mid-century interiors. Among significant mid-century interiors, none are more celebrated yet underpublished as the homes created by architects and interior designers for themselves. This collection of newly commissioned photographs presents the most compelling homes by influential mid-century designers, such as Russel Wright, George Nakashima, Harry Bertoia, Charles and Ray Eames, and Eva Zeisel, among others. Intimate as well as revelatory, Williamson’s photographs show these creative homes as they were lived in by their designers: Walter Gropius’s historic Bauhaus home in Massachusetts; Albert Frey’s floating modernist aerie on a Palm Springs rock outcropping; Wharton Esherick’s completely handmade Pennsylvania house, from the organic handcarved staircase to the iconic furniture. Personal and breathtaking by turn—these homes are exemplary studies of domestic modernism at its warmest and most creative. Leslie Williamson is a photographer based in San Francisco. Her work has appeared in Dwell, Surface, and Travel + Leisure magazines.

The Soul of a House DECORATING WITH WARMTH, STYLE, AND COMFORT CHRIS MADDEN From best-selling author and design icon Chris Madden comes the first book on her design philosophy, and how to achieve her comfortable, chic style. Design expert Chris Madden has spent years chronicling other people’s beautiful rooms. Now, for the first time, she presents her own design sensibility as illustrated by examples such as her elegant one hundredyear-old carriage house in upstate New York and a mid-century modern family getaway in the mountains of Vermont. Organized by type of room, each house is explored—from entryways to bedrooms, kitchens, living rooms, mudrooms, greenhouses, and terraces, as well as specialty rooms like yoga studios and a man’s study—through rich photography and dozens of practical styling tips. Readers learn how to layer fabrics and colors for seasonal decorating; how to repurpose materials; and how to recognize a room’s quality of light. Also featured are sidebars on caring for guests, collecting, and living in an old house versus a modern house. An avid gardener, Madden explores the way outdoor space frames and supports a house. This lush and elegant volume is an eminently practical resource of ideas for creating rooms in which to celebrate family, entertain friends, and provide personal sanctuary.

British West Indies Style ANTIGUA, JAMAICA, BARBADOS, AND BEYOND MICHAEL CONNORS Breathtaking photographs capture the history and unique design of the English island great houses, detailing the hardwood furniture, terraced gardens, walled courtyards, and interiors. Perhaps the most admired and influential of tropical styles, the English island style transformed residences into private paradises. British West Indies Style is a lavish account of the interiors, architecture, and lifestyle of the English colonial great houses and historic town houses in the Caribbean—from the British Virgin Islands, Jamaica, Nevis, St. Kitts, Antigua, Barbados, and others, to the less-traveled islands of Bequia, British Guyana, and Montserrat. Close to fifty private homes are featured, with unique collections of antique, indigenous, and colonial furniture: a southern plantation style scaled and refreshingly adapted to the airy, sunny climate of the Windward and Leeward Islands. Presenting a world rarely seen by visitors—the homes of the islands’ affluent planters, both historical and contemporary—the English island styles are elegant yet practical and accessible, giving ideas for the use of local materials, painting and stenciling techniques, environment-enhancing design, and indoor/outdoor living—all of which are ubiquitous in contemporary interior design. Michael Connors , an expert in West Indies antiques, is a contributor to numerous publications, including Art & Antiques, Antiques and Fine Art, and The Magazine Antiques. He has written many books, including Caribbean Houses: History, Style, and Architecture (Rizzoli, 2009).

Studio Job THE BOOK OF JOB JOB SMEETS AND NYNKE TYNAGEL TEXTS BY VIKTOR & ROLF, ALESSANDRO MENDINI, MURRAY MOSS, GARETH WILLIAMS, AND NADJA SWAROVSKI
This first monograph on the work of Studio Job is designed by the studio, resulting in an extraordinary art object in a limited edition of 3,000 copies. The art objects and furniture developed by Job Smeets and Nynke Tynagel bring a romantic, and often monumental sensibility to contemporary industrial design. Celebrated in design and art fairs from Milan to Miami, the pair’s creations—from sculpture to graphic design—have attracted a cult following and are in the permanent collections of important museums. Studio Job’s work is drawn from an artistic tradition that combines everyday objects with grand historical themes. These inspirational sources have been harnessed to create an unprecedented, virtually handmade volume that translates the process and product of these designers. The lavish package resembles a traditional, leatherbound bible, with hand-drawn illuminations of the entire Book of Job from the King James Bible. Themes present in the biblical Book of Job are echoed in the studio’s project portfolio, translating the formal wit of Smeets and Tynagel’s work in print. Photographs taken expressly for the book, accompanied by neverbefore-seen sketches from the designers’ personal sketchbooks, provide rare insight into their particular approach to design and patternmaking and culminate in a rare achievement in book design. Job Smeets and Nynke Tynagel are the principals of Studio Job, and are based in Antwerp, Belgium, and Breda, the Netherlands. Both are graduates of the Design Academy in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. Viktor & Rolf are fashion designers. Alessandro Mendini is a designer and architect. Murray Moss is founder of the design art company Moss.

Combining whimsy and elegance, Piero Fornasetti (1913–1988) transformed everyday objects like cups, scarves, and screens into works of art featuring his idiosyncratic leitmotifs, such as the hand, the female face, and luminescent fish. Additionally, he created a wide range of works, including idealized architectural fantasy drawings, book designs, and provocative nudes, as well as the decor for the luxury liner Andrea Doria. Perhaps most famous for dazzling pieces of trompe l’oeil furniture, Fornasetti was rediscovered in the 1980s and has remained much sought-after by collectors worldwide. Featuring 2,800 illustrations, many never before published, the monograph is designed to be an “artist’s book” that reflects as faithfully as possible Fornasetti’s own approach to design. Fornasetti’s work is organized by type and includes paintings, sculptures and etchings, furniture, graphics, textiles, glass, screens, trays, and ceramics, as well as smaller categories. With unique and exhaustive access to the archives, this epic undertaking covers detailed technical, biographical, and bibliographical information, including a list of exhibitions and a register of the complete works. A must-have for collectors and connoisseurs alike. Barnaba Fornasetti is a designer and oversees his father’s legacy. Andrea Branzi is a leading architect and designer in Milan and has published a number of books on design, including The Hot House: Italian New Wave Design. Mariuccia Casadio is the art consultant for Italian Vogue and the author of Dolce & Gabbana: Fashion Album, among other books.

Mika Ninagawa MIKA NINAGAWA FOREWORD BY DAIDO MORIYAMA CONTRIBUTIONS BY TAKASHI MURAKAMI, ANTONIO MARRAS, ANNA SUI, AND MIDORI MATSUI This is the first monograph to be published in the West on the work of Mika Ninagawa, one of Japan’s most celebrated photographers. The appeal of Mika Ninagawa’s photography can best be summed up by a signature approach that is bathed in vivid colors and is dreamlike in its manipulation of depth of field. Whether it is portraiture, landscape, or still life, at the heart of her work are themed looks that rotate between flora, fauna, landscapes, and glamorous young women to create Ninagawa’s lush fashion tableaux. A cultural superstar in Japan, where celebrities seek her portraiture, she is now breaking out in the West. Ninagawa shoots her ornately clad human subjects against baroque stylings that suggest a firm grasp of practical scenography, and the work achieves a calm, pictorial mastery. Portraits of local and international personalities, from Chiaki Kuriyama to Beyoncé, pepper her portfolio, and her distinct and vibrant aesthetic has been very influential in the fashion world. Lauded in Japan as an art and fashion photographer, the assertion on Mika Ninagawa’s official website of being “Japan’s most popular photographer” is no idle boast. She is certainly the most prolific. Formally represented by Tomio Koyama’s influential gallery, Ninagawa’s images are widely exhibited in Japan and abroad. She has had key installations at Colette in Paris and Arndt and Partner in Berlin, and is a frequent participant at Art Basel Miami. She received the prestigious Kimura Ihei Award in 2001. Daido Moriyama is a central figure in Japanese postwar photography. Artist Takashi Murakami ’s work is exhibited in prestigious museums around the world. Antonio Marras is the artistic director of KENZO. Anna Sui is a fashion designer. Midori Matsui is an art critic and writer.

Dinka THE GREAT CATTLE HERDERS OF THE AFRICAN SUDAN TEXT AND PHOTOGRAPHY BY ANGELA FISHER AND CAROL BECKWITH FOREWORD BY FRANCIS M. DENG This seminal volume on the indigenous African Dinka group is a landmark documentation of a vanishing people in war-torn Sudan. World-renowned photographers Angela Fisher and Carol Beckwith have devoted their lives to documenting the rapidly disappearing ceremonies and cultures of the indigenous people of Africa. In breathtakingly poignant images, they present a story that started with their first visit to the Dinka thirty years ago. Living in harmony with their cattle, the Dinka have survived years of war only to find their culture on the brink of vanishing forever. Where the White Nile River reaches Dinka country, it spills over 11,000 square miles of flood plain to form the Sudd, the largest swamp in the world.In the dry season,it provides abundant pasture for cattle, and this is where the Dinka set up their camps. The men dust their bodies and faces with gray ash— protection against flies and lethal malarial mosquitoes, but also considered a mark of beauty. Covered with this ash and up to 7’ 6” tall, the Dinka were referred to as “gentle” or “ghostly” giants by the early explorers. The Dinka call themselves “jieng” and “mony-jang,” which means “men of men.” Angela Fisher and Carol Beckwith have spent a lifetime studying the peoples of the Horn of Africa, and have published their photography in a series of acclaimed books as well as major magazine features in Time, Life, Vogue, Marie Claire, and Elle. They exhibit and lecture widely at prestigious venues such as the American Museum of Natural History, The Smithsonian Institution, and the Royal Geographical Society in London. Francis M. Deng is currently Special Adviser to the UN SecretaryGeneral on the Prevention of Genocide. He has also served as a senior diplomat for Sudan, as Minister of State for Foreign Affairs (1976–80), and as an ambassador to the United States.

Joy Division PHOTOGRAPHS BY KEVIN CUMMINS PREFACE BY BERNARD SUMNER FOREWORD BY JAY McINERNEY ESSAY BY SUE WEBSTER The definitive look at one of the most iconic rock bands of all time. Joy Division pioneered a genre of music and defined the look and sound of the post-punk era, and thirty years after the suicide of their lead singer Ian Curtis, they remain one of the most influential rock bands to have come out of England. Between their infamous live performances and two studio albums in the late 1970s, Joy Division set the Manchester scene alight, established Factory Records as the most influential label in pop music, and recorded some of the most enduring songs of the era. Kevin Cummins began his career just as the band formed, and for the few short years of their career was given closer access to them than any other photographer. Joy Division collects more than two hundred of his images of the band—sensitive photographs that capture their quiet introspection offstage, their close relationships as bandmates, and Curtis’s legendary energy in live performances—and supplements the iconic images with concert tickets, unreleased record sleeves, fan club badges, Factory Records flyers, and other rare ephemera. This book is the most definitive and heavily illustrated celebration of the band ever produced. Kevin Cummins is the definitive chronicler of Manchester music. His photographs have appeared in the NME, Melody Maker, The Face, Mojo, and Rolling Stone, and his work has been exhibited at galleries around the world. Bernard Sumner is a founding member of Joy Division and New Order. Jay McInerney is the author of such novels as Bright Lights, Big City and The Good Life. Sue Webster is an artist based in London.

Listen PHOTOGRAPHS BY MARK SELIGER ESSAYS BY MARK SELIGER AND FRED WOODWARD The highly acclaimed contemporary photographer presents his private and evocative nudes, landscapes, and close-up still lifes. Listen is in a sense a memento mori, which follows in the tradition of many photographers (Weston, Stieglitz) and artists (Cézanne) who, at a certain age, focus on the nude, landscapes, and still lifes. It highlights Mark Seliger’s personal reflections on seeing and on the passage of time. Best known for his portraits of celebrities and musicians, Listen is a compilation of works from Seliger’s private collection that captures the essence of light and shadow, and whose photographs speak to us metaphorically. The book includes more than ninety tritones, each printed with a turn-of-the-century platinum palladium photographic process, a process that results in a highly detailed, rich texture. Many of the photographs were made especially for this book and will be published for the first time. In 2009, Seliger was the recipient of the Lucie Award for outstanding achievement in portraiture. Mark Seliger is an American photographer who served as the chief photographer for Rolling Stone from 1992 to 2002 and shot more than one hundred covers for the magazine. Born in Amarillo, Texas, he now lives in New York and works for several Condé Nast publications, including GQ and Vanity Fair. Seliger has published several books, including In My Stairwell (Rizzoli, 2005). Fred Woodward is currently the design director of GQ. He is a recipient of the American Institute of Graphic Arts Medal—the highest honor his profession bestows.

Todd Eberle THE EMPIRE OF SPACE FOREWORD BY GLENN O’BRIEN ESSAY BY DAVID HICKEY Contrasting ultramodernist photographs taken over a thirty-year period constitute the first book by one of the most celebrated photographers working today. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1963, and first coming into prominence in the early 1990s with his iconic photographs of Donald Judd’s works and architecture, Todd Eberle’s photographs document the disparate images that make up American architecture, landscapes, and society and are united by a minimalist aesthetic that runs through his work. Whether his approach to a particular subject is earnest (an unfurling flag) or kitsch (the Vegas strip), Eberle brings to his photographs a heightened sense of precision, symmetry, and proportion. The Empire of Space is a lavish look at Eberle’s career and features many rare and never-before-published portraits, landscapes, still lifes, and interiors. In the spirit of Walker Evans, Eberle creates an enduring and poetic portrait of America, the arts, and architecture through thoughtfully contrasting and analogous photographs. This exciting and definitive book on Eberle’s illustrious legacy is sure to rank among the most important publications to mix modernism, minimalism, and photography. Todd Eberle is a professional photographer and artist based in New York City. He is currently the photographer-at-large for Vanity Fair and regularly contributes to the New York Times Style Magazine, Interview, and the Wall Street Journal Magazine, among others. Glenn O’Brien , in addition to writing the column The Style Guy for GQ, was the editor of Andy Warhol’s Interview and the New York bureau chief of Rolling Stone. He produced and starred in Glenn O’Brien’s TV Party and wrote and produced the film Downtown 81, starring Jean-Michel Basquiat.

Tokujin Yoshioka TOKUJIN YOSHIOKA WITH KAZUO HASHIBA The complete work of Tokujin Yoshioka, one of the most innovative designers working today. Based in Tokyo, Tokujin Yoshioka has built a career using unconventional materials to create objects and spaces. Often employing paper and glass, as well as unusual elements, such as plastic drinking straws, his studio’s work has achieved a cult following among design enthusiasts. Leading design museums, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, and the Centre Pompidou, Paris, have Yoshioka’s work in their permanent collections. He was the recipient of the Designer of the Year Award at Design Miami in 2007. A protégé of both Issey Miyake and the legendary industrial designer Shiro Kuramata, Yoshioka established his own practice in 2000. Working with Miyake for nearly two decades, Yoshioka completed many projects and installations, and shop designs for both a-poc and Issey Miyake. His collaborations have expanded globally, and he now counts brands such as Cartier, Hermès, BMW, and Swarovski as his clients. In creations like the Honey-Pop Chair, the TokyoPop Chair, and the Panna Chair, Yoshioka’s designs display a tactility and warmth not often associated with minimalist works. His most recent experiments transcend industrial design, occupying a space between science and art, typified by the Venus chair, where crystals were naturally grown over a fiber form immersed in a glass tank filled with a solution. Designed by Groovisions, the book includes more than three hundred sketches, concept renderings, and photographs. The projects are organized thematically, with an emphasis on materials and process, and show how Yoshioka transforms commonplace items to create objects of tensile strength and sublime beauty. Tokujin Yoshioka is the principal of Tokujin Yoshioka Design, based in Tokyo. Kazuo Hashiba is a writer and editor for design publications, a curator, and a regular lecturer at various design institutes.

Muji TEXTS BY JASPER MORRISON, NAOTO FUKASAWA, AND KENYA HARA This fascinating monograph provides an unprecedented view into the inner workings of Muji, one of the most influential brands leading sustainable design. A prescient advocate of sustainable consumption and the matchless utility of good design, Muji’s founding principle was to develop new and simple products at reasonable prices by making the best use of materials while minimizing their impact on the environment. From a humble inaugural line of eight products nearly three decades ago, the brand now sells nearly five thousand different products in hundreds of its own stores in Asia, Europe, and North America. Known for the minimalist feel of its “no-brand” wares, Muji ironically employs the biggest names in contemporary industrial and fashion design, with goods ranging from fashion to tableware to consumer electronics. Muji’s natural and simple designs provide an understated, contemporary elegance to everyday life. The key to Muji’s success is the feeling that you are not buying cheap, but buying smart. With its restrained color palette, consistent quality, attention to detail, and “no-waste” profile, Muji today remains adamantly true to its original principles, its products a respite in an over-branded world. With the stellar photography that has made Muji’s advertising campaigns famous, and contributions from A-list designers, this volume illustrates Muji’s profound influence on global design.

Billy Baldwin THE GREAT AMERICAN DECORATOR ADAM LEWIS FOREWORD BY ALBERT HADLEY The definitive book on the legendary decorator Billy Baldwin, known as the “Dean of American Decorating,” famous for his classical taste, streamlined modernism, and brilliant use of color. In the tradition of Rizzoli’s Albert Hadley and David Hicks, this is the first fully illustrated account of the career of Billy Baldwin (1903–1983), one of the most important decorators of the twentieth century, whose work has influenced contemporary designers from Bunny Williams to Jeffrey Bilhuber. A native of Baltimore, Baldwin’s work caught the eye of eminent New York decorator Ruby Ross Wood. She invited him to join her firm, saying his work stood out “like a beacon of light in the boredom of the houses around it.” Baldwin’s style was a revelation—simultaneously classical and modernist, tailored and clean, yet dramatically colored, and above all American. An enemy of clutter and conspicuous wealth, he favored natural materials and comfortable furniture. The drama in his rooms often came from color, as seen in the dark brown lacquered walls of Cole Porter’s library or the scarlet cotton print that covered Diana Vreeland’s apartment. Immensely charming, Baldwin was a popular addition to the high society of New York. His clients included Bill and Deeda Blair, Babe and Bill Paley, and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. With a foreword by Baldwin’s former student Albert Hadley, and enriched by never-before-published transcripts of four 1974 lectures that Baldwin gave at the Cooper-Hewitt, this is an important book for anyone interested in interior design. Adam Lewis is the author of Van Day Truex, Albert Hadley, and The Great Lady Decorators. Albert Hadley is one of the most important American interior designers of the twentieth century.

A Perfectly Kept House Is the Sign of a Misspent Life CREATIVE IDEAS AND REAL-LIFE TIPS FOR MAKING YOUR HOME LIVED-IN, WARM, WELCOMING, AND ONE-OF-A-KIND (WITHOUT WORRYING ABOUT EVERYTHING BEING JUST RIGHT!) MARY RANDOLPH CARTER For all those who choose to live “imperfectly” with the messy things they love, this book shows how to do so creatively, happily, and with considerable style ideas from leading designers. A beautiful and inspiring volume, A Perfectly Kept House Is the Sign of a Misspent Life focuses on living well with everything that makes a house a home. If you have been influenced by the picturesquely cluttered studios of Pablo Picasso or Alexander Calder, or by the art- and book-filled house of Vanessa Bell, this unique style book will stimulate you with its creative ideas. This volume explores how real-life tastemakers (photographers, textile designers, fashion designers, writers, artists) integrate their life and interiors to live well with their passions, histories, conveniences, and inconveniences. In inspiring essays, Mary Randolph Carter muses on such key housekeeping concerns as clutter versus mess; open windows; and unmade beds. Combining practical tips with liberating philosophy— ”Don’t scrub the soul out of your home”; “Make room for what you love”—this volume celebrates living beautifully and happily, not messily. Lavishly illustrated with intimate photographs of different living spaces, Carter exalts in the beauty of imperfection and in living perfectly in our “imperfect” homes. Life isn’t perfect—why should your house be? Mary Randolph Carter is an author, photographer, designer, and longtime creative director for Ralph Lauren. She is the author of For the Love of Old and the Junk series of books.

Morris Lapidus THE ARCHITECTURE OF JOY DEBORAH DESILETS Adored for his exuberant and original architecture, more than fifty years of Morris Lapidus’s designs are celebrated in this first-ever monograph. Known for inventing the postwar resort hotel with the Fontainebleau and the Eden Roc in Miami Beach, Morris Lapidus (1902–2001) is revered for his joyful interpretation of modernist tenets through an American vernacular of spectacle and whimsy. Lapidus enthusiastically embraced modernism’s formal freedom and sensuality while rejecting its more rigid principles, producing a unique style that seamlessly blends baroque fantasia with modernism’s clean lines and flowing spaces. His exuberant curving walls, zigzagging facades, and deft manipulation of space created dramatic forms that transform the moods of their occupants. In 2000 Lapidus was honored by the Cooper-Hewitt as an “American Original,” an award created especially for him. This comprehensive volume presents the highlights of Lapidus’s extraordinary career. From seductive modern shops and private residences to iconic hotels and residential towers in New York, Miami Beach, the Caribbean, and beyond, this iconoclast proves that “too much is never enough.” Deborah Desilets is the holder of the Lapidus archives. She has lectured extensively both nationally and internationally on his work.

Casa Modernista A HISTORY OF THE BRAZIL MODERN HOUSE PHOTOGRAPHY BY ALAN WEINTRAUB TEXT BY ALAN HESS FOREWORD BY JOSÉ EDUARDO DE ASSIS LEFÈVRE A rediscovery of one of the most powerful schools of Modernism. On the one hand sensual and warm, on the other rational yet rhythmic, Brazilian Modernism is the soulful alternative to its European parent, better known for theoretical rigor and cold precision. Using the modern materials of concrete and reinforced glass, as well as wood and steel, Brazilians brought to Modernism an unspoken philosophy that allowed for the free flow of nature and built forms, so that the one was not dominated by the other but rather embraced by it. The undulating and amorphous buildings of Oscar Niemeyer are perhaps the best known expressions of this philosophy, in which the typical straight line of Europe’s Modern home becomes a graceful arabesque. The story of the Brazil Modern house is a tradition, a great flowering of talents and vision and a revealing new experience of Modernism, that until now has not been properly documented. Casa Modernista is the first volume to comprehensively cover this extraordinary architecture. Within its pages is featured not only the work of Niemeyer, but also that of all the most important modern architects of this extremely rich, multifaceted nation, including Affonso Eduardo Reidy, Jorge Machado Moreira, Carlos Leao, Alvaro Vital Brazil, Paulo Mendes da Rocha, Joao Walter Toscano, and Abrahao Sanovicz. Alan Weintraub is a widely published architectural photographer whose recent books include Oscar Niemeyer Buildings. Alan Hess , an architect and architecture critic of the San Jose Mercury News, is co-author of Julius Shulman: Palm Springs and author of Oscar Niemeyer Buildings. José Eduardo de Assis Lefèvre is a professor of architecture and urbanism at the University of São Paulo.

Los Angeles in Maps GLEN CREASON FOREWORD BY D. J. WALDIE CONTRIBUTIONS BY JOE LINTON AND MORGAN YATES An illustrated cartographic history of the City of Angels from the colonial era to the present.

Los Angeles inhabits a place of the mind as much as it does a physical geographic space. A land of palm trees and movie stars, sunshine and glamour, the city exists in the imagination as a paradise; of course, the reality is much bigger than this. Through seventy reproductions of seminal and historic documents, Los Angeles in Maps presents the evolution of this almost mythical place. Maps featured include historic Spanish explorers’ charts from as early as 1791, as well as more recent topographic surveys, tourist guides, real estate maps, bird’s-eye views, and more. Like the course of the Los Angeles River, the book winds through essential terrain: the discovery of oil, the rise of Hollywood, the streetcar system, Los Angeles Harbor, earthquakes, sprawl, and splendor. Glen Creason is map librarian at the Los Angeles Public Library and cocurator of the landmark exhibition L.A. Unfolded: Maps from the Los Angeles Public Library. D. J. Waldie is the author of the California Book Award–winner Holy Land: A Suburban Memoir. Joe Linton is an artist, writer, and activist living in Los Angeles. Morgan Yates is corporate archivist at the Auto Club of Southern California and works in Los Angeles.
77E77 A HOUSE FOR A COLLECTOR DAVID ADJAYE TEXTS BY DAVID ADJAYE AND ADAM LINDEMANN PHOTOGRAPHY BY ROBERT POLIDORI An in-depth presentation of an important contribution to New York residential architecture. Considered one of the most important architects of his generation, David Adjaye is lauded for high-profile buildings such as the Nobel Peace Center in Oslo, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Denver, and the recent competitionwinning design for the Smithsonian Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C.

Adjaye, however, made his reputation with a series of houses that he designed for artists and art collections. These conceptually driven structures culminated in 77E77, a recently completed town house in New York. Designed and built over five years for the contemporary art collector Adam Lindemann, 77E77 was conceived as a sophisticated response to the specific site and the culturally rich neighborhood. The result is a spatially complex series of interlocking spaces, providing suitable rooms for both the challenging art collection it houses and a young and growing family. With 77E77 Adjaye made a fresh and successful contribution to the history of the modern home in New York: a house for our new generation. David Adjaye is the principal of Adjaye Associates, London, New York, and Berlin. Adam Lindemann is the author of Collecting Contemporary. Robert Polidori is an award-winning photographer, and his work is the subject of twelve books.

This volume offers an exclusive look into the classic homes and gardens in the legendary neighborhoods in and around Los Angeles.

The Language of Towns and Cities DHIRU A. THADANI FOREWORD BY LÉON KRIER INTRODUCTION BY ANDRÉS DUANY The final word on the language of urban planning and design. The Language of Towns and Cities is a landmark publication that clarifies the language by which we talk about urban planning and design. Everyday words such as “avenue,” “boulevard,” “park,” and “district,” as well as less commonly used words and terms such as “sustainability,” “carbon-neutral,” or “Bilbao Effect” are used with a great variety of meanings, causing confusion among citizens, city officials, and other decision-makers when trying to design viable neighborhoods, towns, and cities. This magnificent volume is the fruit of more than a decade of research and writing in an effort to ameliorate this situation. Abundantly illustrated with over 2,500 photographs, drawings, and charts, The Language of Towns and Cities is both a richly detailed glossary of more than seven hundred words and terms commonly used in architecture and urban planning, and a compendium of great visual interest. From “A” and “B” streets to Zero Lot and Zeitgeist, the book is at once comprehensive and accessible. An essential work for architects, urban planners, students of design, and all those interested in the future of towns and cities, this is destined to become a classic in its field. Dhiru A. Thadani is a practicing architect and teacher who has worked in North and South America, Europe, and Asia, in urban design, town planning, architectural design, landscape design, and construction management. Léon Krier is a renowned architect who has taught architecture and town planning at the Royal College of Art, London; Princeton University; Yale University; and the University of Virginia. Andrés Duany is one of America’s most influential architects and town planners.

The first-ever compilation of the most innovative design magazine of the 1960s and 1970s. Launched in 1961, Abitare is considered by some to be the Wallpaper* magazine of its day: the source of all things hip, important, and avant-garde, as well as must-know information and must-have objects, many of which have become design classics fifty years later. This important compilation brings together the very best of the Abitare universe: the most noteworthy design developments of the last fifty years, with emphasis on the 1960s and 1970s. Abitare was founded to cover the growing influence of Italian design but also to gather the most interesting trends worldwide, from the mod fashion in London, and the rise of alternative lifestyles in New York and San Francisco, to the development of industrial design in Milan. Classic articles from Abitare are reproduced in full, with their original English and Italian texts, while new essays by noted writers and past editors reflect on the influence of this trailblazing magazine. Mario Piazza is the creative director of Abitare. Paola Antonelli is the Senior Curator of Design at the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

Glenn Brown ESSAYS BY ROCHELLE STEINER, MICHAEL BRACEWELL, AND DAVID FREEDBERG A beautifully designed monograph surveying the career of artist Glenn Brown. Luxuriously filled with over 56 images, this book documents the bravura of Brown’s brushwork and his unique evocation of images. Recognized for his sheer, flat surfaces—intricately described yet deprived of mass, whose ambiguity is heightened further when altering colors, forms, or details taken from such gestural artists as Frank Auerbach, Salvador Dalí, Chiam Soutine, or Vincent Van Gogh—Brown creates a carnivalesque world where the rational and irrational, the beautiful and the grotesque are brought together in a vigorous state of play. Glenn Brown was born in Northumberland, England, in 1966 and studied at the ART 148 pages, 12 x 10” 55 color & b/w illustrations HC w/jacket: 978-0-8478-3488-4 $100.00 Can: $120.00 UK: £78.00 September 14, 2010 Rights:World RIZZOLI

Richard Wright ESSAYS BY RUSSELL FERGUSON, JOHN LOWDEN, AND SARAH LOWNDES An extensive monograph surveying the recent major works of artist Richard Wright. This fully illustrated publication presents Wright’s exquisite paintings and drawings. Wright states “I wanted to get to the idea without the object getting in the way.” This attitude led to paintings of extraordinary skill made directly onto the wall that do away with the physicality of the canvas. This publication records these special transient events where paintings have appeared, and for the most part, no longer exist. Winner of the prestigious Turner Prize (2009), Wright’s work was praised by the judges for its “profound originality and beauty.” ART 144 pages, 9 11⁄16 x 124” Illustrations throughout Flexi: 978-0-8478-3504-1 $80.00 Can: $94.00 UK: £50.00 Rights:World September 14, 2010 RIZZOLI I N A S S O C I AT I O N W I T H G A G O S I A N G A L L E R Y

The recipient of numerous design awards, Frank Williams & Partners, based in New York, is one of the foremost designers of tall buildings in the world. With ongoing projects in locations from New York to Dubai, and Shanghai to Moscow, and completed projects across the globe, principal Frank Williams has been extremely influential in shaping the skyline of the modern, international city.

Pei), along with seventeen others in New York, as well as the Terrace Tower in Bangkok, Crocus City Tower in Moscow, Samsung Residential Towers in Seoul, 11 Burj Dubai Boulevard in Dubai, and many more.

The Cowboys Stadium ART + ARCHITECTURE TEXTS BY DAVID DILLON AND DAVID PAGEL A celebration of America’s favorite football team’s newest home. In the design and construction of the new Cowboys Stadium in Dallas, an inspired mission to integrate world-class contemporary art into a state-of-theart football stadium created an instant architectural icon.
ARCHITECTURE 176 pages, 11 x 11” 150 illustrations HC w/jacket: 978-0-8478-3536-2 $50.00 Can: $60.00 UK: £35.00 October 26, 2010 Rights:World RIZZOLI
Nineteen works of contemporary art, most commissioned for specific sites within the stadium building, were installed to dynamically complement the architecture. The artists range from established stars of the art world like Olafur Eliasson, Lawrence Weiner, and Mel Bochner, to up-and-coming names such as Matthew Ritchie, Doug Aitken, and Teresita Fernández, among others, with the resulting collection rivaling that of any world-class galleries. Even without the art, the Cowboys Stadium is an engineering marvel. A twentyfirst-century retractable roofing system allows natural light and air to be exposed onto the world’s largest column-free interior space. Lauded by the Wall Street Journal as “simply mesmerizing,” the Cowboys Stadium is a work of art in its own right. This volume captures the exhilaration of the synergy of art and architecture in this lauded landmark. David Dillon is the architecture critic for the Dallas Morning News. David Pagel is an art critic who regularly contributes to the Los Angeles Times.

Celebrating the graphics of this street-art medium, Stickers illustrates the timeline of this pastime, from counterculture to politics. Stickers includes more than 2,000 sticker graphics organized by categories and themes, with works by such diverse artists as Raymond Pettibon and Jenny Holzer; street artists such as Banksy, Neck Face, and Barry McGee; and amateur artists who “tag” the streets anonymously. With texts from artists and writers, including Swoon, Stanley Donwood, ESPO, Clayton Patterson, Carlo McCormick, and Michael Betancourt, Stickers illustrates not only the visual and social history of sticker art but also the personal relationship that street artists and pedestrians alike have with stickers. The book includes eight sheets of stickers, most of which are original works, by artists such as Barry McGee, Ryan McGinness, and José Parlá. DB Burkeman fell in love with stickers and street art at an early age via skateboarding and punk rock, but made a name for himself DJing between his homes in London and New York. Shepard Fairey is an artist and graphic designer who is known around the world for his “André the Giant Has a Posse” sticker campaign and the Barack Obama “Hope” poster. Carlo McCormick is a curator, cultural critic, and the author of numerous books. He is the senior editor at Paper Magazine.

Small Eco Houses LIVING GREEN IN STYLE FRANCESC ZAMORA MOLA Fresh perspectives on how good design can create stylish yet ecologically sound living spaces in small-scale homes. Anyone who has faced the challenges of limited living space will find inspiration in this survey of the latest trends in environmentally sensitive, small-scale residential designs. More than fifty residential spaces are profiled—from woodsy houses and repurposed barns to cool apartments and urban lofts—both inside and out. Most of the projects were designed by up-andcoming architects, and each design proves that smallscale efficiency as well as beautiful, thoughtful design can overcome the apparent constraints of a small setting. Environmental impact is a growing concern, so each project was chosen because of its ecological sensitivity. Each case history describes the challenges confronting the designer and the solutions. Creating color schemes to enhance the feeling of openness, taking advantage of high ceilings to make multiple levels, and using collapsible furniture and sliding doors to maximize space are some of the design solutions that can be applied in any situation. Filled with beautiful color photographs and helpful floorplans, this book is a remarkable showcase of how good design can transform any small space into a comfortable, modern—and environmentally sensitive—home. Francesc Zamora Mola is an interior architect who has worked for several innovative architecture firms in San Francisco. Since returning to Barcelona in 2005, he has written about design and architecture for many of Spain’s leading publications.

Flywater THE FLY-FISHING RIVERS OF THE WEST GRANT MCCLINTOCK The magic and majesty of America’s greatest western fly-fishing rivers. Flywater brings us to the iconic creeks, springs, freestone rivers, and tailwaters that make the American West the world’s premier destination for fly fishing. Grant McClintock’s first book struck a chord with fishermen, and fifteen years later he takes the reader back to these fabulous places—from the storied Henry’s Fork to the Yellowstone to the Thompson River in British Columbia. With extraordinary new photography and wisdom, McClintock revisits these home waters and discovers countless others as well. Flywater is a gallery of moments and places. From Idaho and Montana to Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia, McClintock’s rich photography of trout and steelhead waters surrounded by beautiful Western landscapes creates a compelling journey that the reader, whether fisherman or non-fisherman, will thoroughly enjoy. For the serious fly fisherman, this is an album of shared experiences. For the uninitiated, it is an artfully crafted guidebook to an exotic new world that really does exist on the streams and rivers of the American West. Grant McClintock divides his time between his native Oklahoma and Montana. Over the years he has fished, guided, and photographed many of the great trout, steelhead, and salmon rivers in the United States. He is also the author of two books, Flywater—one of the definitive books in the fishing literary canon—and Watermark.

Colors SYMBOLS • HISTORY • CORRELATIONS LUCIANA BOCCARDI An intriguing and curious trip inside the world of colors, told through legends, stories, and anecdotes. Why do we say things like “black day,” “green with envy,” “white lie,” “seeing red,” and “feeling blue?” Why is it that green is associated with hope and blue with meditation? And why is red the color of power? Is white really the color of innocence or is it also...? These questions have been the focus of research by scholars, scientists, poets and “soul-searchers,” and this book aims to arrive at an understanding of the symbols, meanings, history, and associations of these colors, and ultimately produce a portrait of ourselves.

“Fashion is logic, method, system. It is work. Indeed, fashion involves many different kinds of work: that of the draftsman, the dressmaker and the tailor, the artisan, the technician... Enthusiasm and dedication are needed. And curiosity, in the sense of a continual search for stimuli. And culture in the sense of an understanding of other people’s experiences, of the expressions of human knowledge, of different horizons and the most varied ways of life. A brief word of advice? Explore and experiment, work and know exactly what you want. And above all, never forget that fashion is also a dream.”—Gianfranco Ferré Maria Luisa Frisa is director of the graduate course in fashion design at the IUAV in Venice, and fashion curator of the Fondazione Pitti Discovery. She is also editor of the Mode series.

Inca ORIGIN AND MYSTERIES OF THE GOLDEN CIVILIZATION EDITED BY PALOMA CARCEDO DE MUFARECH A trip across time along a golden labyrinth leading to the birth of preColumbian civilizations. More than 250 masterpieces from the most important museums of Peru reveal the mastery and the skill of the pre-Columbian goldsmiths of the Central Andes, as well as how gold forged the belief, the rituals, the earthly and heavenly spheres, and the way of representing the political and the religious. The force of unknown symbols, represented by the finds pictured in this book, leads to the understanding of the spirituality of these ancient peoples. The mystic dimension of life and death lived through a deep relation with the gods is evoked by the outstanding images which picture their connection with the afterlife.

Walter Albini and His Time ALL POWER TO THE IMAGINATION EDITED BY MARIA LUISA FRISA AND STEFANO TONCHI A lively and multifaceted portrait of a true icon of the fashion world of the 1970s. Universally renowned as the master of the total look, Walter Albini created his first collection in 1963. After a meeting with Mariuccia Mandelli he worked with the Krizia atelier and, during his latest season, beside Karl Lagerfeld.

Miles Davis VINCENT BESSIÈRES AND FRANCK BERGEROT IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE MONTREAL MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS
The most comprehensive book on the artist to date, offering an insightful look into the legendary musician and his enormous impact on the development of jazz. Miles Davis explores the life and art of one of the greatest visionaries in jazz history—through photographs, handwritten musical scores, album covers, posters, and more—cementing his reputation as the embodiment of cool, both on- and offstage. To examine his extraordinary career is also to examine the history of jazz from the mid-1940s through the early 1990s, as Davis was crucial in almost every important innovation and stylistic development during that time. His genius paved the way for these changes, both with his own performances and recordings, and by choosing collaborators with whom he forged new directions. Miles Davis—trumpeter, bandleader, and composer— was one of the most important figures in jazz history. He was born in a well-to-do family in St. Louis in 1926 and died in a Los Angeles hospital in 1991. He was at the forefront of several major developments in jazz music, including cool jazz, hard bop, free jazz, and fusion. Davis worked with many of the greatest jazz musicians of all time, including Ron Carter, John Coltrane, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Quincy Jones, Charlie Parker, and Max Roach, among numerous others. Vincent Bessières is a member of the French l’Académie du Jazz and an author and editor who writes frequently and with expertise on jazz. Franck Bergerot is editor-in-chief of Jazz Magazine/ Jazzman. He recently organized a complete collection of Miles Davis’s work for the Masters of Jazz label and is the author of several books.

Tarzan! PASCAL DIBIE IN ASSOCIATION WITH MUSEE DE QUAI DE BRANLY
An exploration of the legendary hero’s journey through pop culture. Apeman. Lord of the Jungle. Eco-warrior. Whatever you call him, Tarzan is, above all else, a legend. First created by Edgar Rice Burroughs in Tarzan of the Apes in 1912, Tarzan was more than a European orphan adopted by gorillas in darkest Africa. He quickly became a legendary opponent of colonialism, a valiant symbol of equality, a dangerous yet undeniably attractive lover, and a seemingly immortal hero to us all. Tarzan, who has starred in countless books, movies, radio and television programs, and in recent years Broadway productions and video games—not to mention hundreds of toys, games, and ephemera— holds a unique place in popular culture and in society. As times changed, so did Tarzan and his world: changing mores demanded Jane wear more clothing; developing ethnic tolerances shaped Tarzan’s relationship with his African friends and enemies; and people began to see Tarzan’s thoughtful coexistence with nature and his animal brethren as a bastion of environmentalism. Pascal Dibie, along with other scholars, shine’s a critical yet celebratory light on Tarzan and Burroughs, and explores the relationship between the character and his times. An amazing retrospective of the legendary character, Tarzan! is filled with scenes from the many films, including photographs of stars such as Johnny Weissmuller, Buster Crabbe, Christopher Lambert, Maureen O’Hara, and of course, Cheetah, in addition to classic comic strips, vintage book jackets, retro Viewmaster scenes, and art created especially for this book. Pascal Dibie is an author and ethnologist teaching at the University of Paris.

Andy Warhol: Making Money PREFACE BY BERKELEY REINHOLD CONTRIBUTIONS BY VINCENT FREMONT AND DEBORAH HARRY A whimsically designed facsimile of a unique book of drawings made by Andy Warhol that celebrates the dollar sign as lingua franca. Few artists made money their concern as openly as Andy Warhol. He made many pronouncements on his fascination with the dollar (“Big-time art is bigtime money”), both as a symbol and as something he cherished, and so it was only natural that the dollar sign itself, one of the most recognized symbols anywhere in the world, that international denominator of currency, should enter the Pop art pantheon. Created in 1981 as a Christmas gift for Berkeley Reinhold, the cousin of the visionary curator and critic Henry Geldzahler and the daughter of one of Warhol’s closest friends, this book begins with simple outlines and curves, and builds, with a flipbook-like genesis, from unique abstract drawings to recognizable images of the artist’s inimitable dollar sign. Lighthearted, but with a hint of serious intent, it is an astute expression of how Warhol reveled in the vicissitudes of art and commerce, fortune and circumstance. Berkeley Reinhold is an agent and head of music business affairs at William Morris Endeavor Entertainment in Beverly Hills. Vincent Fremont was Warhol’s confidant and long-time business associate. Deborah Harry is a singer-songwriter most famous for being the lead singer of Blondie.

The Empire Strikes Back INDIAN ART TODAY ZEHRA JUMABHOY IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE SAATCHI GALLERY, LONDON
The first in-depth look at the lively, hip, and often controversial contemporary art scene in India.
ART 208 pages, 115 x 115” 130 color illustrations HC w/jacket: 978-0-8478-3468-6 $60.00 Can: $70.00 May 18, 2010 Rights: North America
Indian art has gone through a boom period paralleling the country’s extraordinary economic rise from an agrarian state to a high-tech axis of the new global economy. With new money came bigger gallery spaces and bigger art—the scale of ambition led to a break onto the international art market. The new art also often reflects a background of religious divide and violence. The exploration of identity, a common enterprise for artists internationally, is all the more challenging in the context of India under transformation. The book features the richest collection of contemporary art assembled to date. It brings together the most compelling and interesting artists from this young and vibrant art scene, some of whom have not shown outside their native country. Zehra Jumabhoy , the leading authority on contemporary Indian art, writes on such universal themes as gender politics, national stereotypes, and the collision between old traditions and the computer age.

Alfred Stieglitz New York BONNIE YOCHELSON IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE SEAPORT MUSEUM
Iconic images of the city from one of the masters of photography collected for the first time in a charming homage to lost New York. Here is “The City of Ambition”—the New York that inspires dreams, the Gotham of the early twentieth century, when grand skyscrapers sprouted everywhere amid columns of steam. Alfred Stieglitz—the legendary art impresario and husband of Georgia O’Keeffe—forged a paean to his native city, finding inspiration on the streets, from the harbor ferry, and in the high-rise views. In her essay, respected art historian Bonnie Yochelson places Stieglitz’s work within the context of the burgeoning commercial world around him and other artists of the period. Stieglitz witnessed a key period in New York’s history when the city suddenly transformed into a modern metropolis. As a child, he grew up in an upper Fifth Avenue brownstone still surrounded by empty lots and dirt roads. Naturally, he was fascinated by the monumental buildings rising around him, and you can sense his wonder in these images. Among the classic buildings he so artfully captured here are the (now demolished) Madison Square Gardens, the Flatiron, Rockefeller Center, the Waldorf Astoria, the Chrysler, and the Empire State. His images formed archetypes that would go on to shape the imagination of generations. This intimate volume makes for a beautiful souvenir of timeless New York, a city of striving and dreaming. Bonnie Yochelson , formerly the curator of prints and photographs at the Museum of the City of New York, has authored many books, including Berenice Abbott: Changing New York. The Seaport Museum is located on the East River in lower Manhattan and hosts more than 250,000 visitors each year. Its mission is to tell the story of how New York City’s great natural harbor became the gateway to America.

Tadao Ando: Venice THE PINAULT COLLECTION AT THE PALAZZO GRASSI AND THE PUNTA DELLA DOGANA PHILIP JODIDIO The acclaimed renovation of two of Venice’s most revered landmarks by the master architect for François Pinault’s unmatched contemporary art collection.

Long acknowledged as a master builder of art spaces, Tadao Ando faced a new constructional challenge with the renovation of two of Venice’s iconic buildings—and succeeded brilliantly. Approached by French magnate François Pinault to renovate two disparate but equally high-profile and challenging Venetian structures to house his peerless collection of contemporary art—the Palazzo Grassi and the Punta della Dogana—Ando deftly employed his signature process to produce two elegant interiors from highly complicated historic sites. At the Palazzo Grassi, prominently located on the Grand Canal, Ando’s quiet but expert renovation of the eighteenth-century rooms harmonizes contemporary art with historical Venetian spaces. At the Punta della Dogana, the Venetian Republic’s original customs warehouse, the large-scale space was subtly subdivided into refined rooms for installation art. The overall effect of the two different renovations is a harmony of old and new, of history and innovation—a result that can only be from the hands of Tadao Ando. Philip Jodidio is the author of Tadao Ando at Naoshima and I.M. Pei: Complete Works.

The Allure of the Automobile DRIVING IN STYLE, 1930–1965 RONALD T. LABACO, WITH KEN GROSS IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE HIGH MUSEUM OF ART
A celebration of the finest designs of the Golden Age of automotive design. The Allure of the Automobile presents eighteen of the world’s rarest and most brilliantly conceived cars from 1930 to the mid-1960s, including masterpieces from Bugatti, Dusenberg, Delage, Porsche, MercedesBenz, Jaguar, and Ferrari. Created for the privileged few (and in some cases previously owned by Clark Gable and Steve McQueen), these luxurious, custombuilt automobiles embodied speed, style, and elegance; they influenced and were influenced by contemporary art, architecture, fashion, and design. Many of the featured automobiles are one of a kind or were built largely by hand and in small numbers. The racing motorcar is a potent symbol of twentiethcentury modernity, embodying speed, style, elegance, and good design. Whether a practical tool or part of a celluloid fantasy, the automobile remains a powerful symbol embedded in our collective cultural consciousness. This book contains an illustrated text with period photographs of the cars, exploring the evolution of the automobile from the opulent and luxurious French custom coachwork models of the early 1930s to post–World War II triumphs of German engineering to the supremacy of Italian sport-car design in the second half of the century. Ronald T. Labaco is curator of decorative arts and design at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta. Ken Gross is an award-winning author of six books and a contributor to many major automotive publications.

ARC The Twentieth-Century Movements LUCA MOLINARI AND ELENA MANZO This is a masterful and richly-illustrated guide to the movements and lively styles that marked the twentieth century. This book examines the international architectural culture throughout the twentieth-century—a historic period that, perhaps more than other periods in human history, produced innovation, utopias, ideas and projects that strongly shifted our way of living and thinking. The twentieth-century was the great triumph of modernity at all levels of human life on a global scale, and as such, architecture and its leading players were called upon to radically rethink architectural tools, language and ideas. This book thematically brings together the movements, authors and key works that played a significant role in thinking and producing in fundamental and original ways. This includes subjects such as: the origins of the Modern with the English Arts and Crafts Movement and the German Werkbund; Futurism; Soviet culture; the Bauhaus and the diverse tendencies of the Modern Movement in the first half of the 1900s; the Second World War and reconstruction; CIAM; Brutalism; Nordic Empiricism and Neo-realism; and then, radical culture; Neo-Rationalism; Post-Modernism; Deconstructionism; and Minimalism. The material continues through to the present day where—as current movements are not recognizable—key words are offered to the reader, such as Neo-Vernacular, Ecotopia, and the Neo-International Style. Luca Molinari is an architectural historian and critic, associate professor at the Napoli-Aversa Faculty of Architecture, Director of the Architecture Sector at the Milan Triennial 2000/2004, and currently curator of the Italian Pavilion at the 2010 Venice Biennale of Architecture.

Great Houses of Champagne DANIEL REY PHOTOGRAPHS BY GRAZIANO VILLA The first book to take readers inside the mansions and estates of Champagne today. Champagne, the king of wines, opens the doors to its most legendary homes. Veuve Clicquot, Taittinger, Krug, Moët & Chandon, Perrier Jouët, and so on; all the most famous Champagne makers, together with the homes of some discreet neighbors, for the first time invite us to discover an art of living that has never before been revealed. A preserved style in which daily refinement blends with the splendor of history, in which the winemaking soul strives unceasingly to honor an exquisite style worthy of the Enlightenment. Brought together into a single volume, more than twenty prestigious buildings and other lesser-known ones are presented. Châteaux and manors listed in the registry of Historic Monuments, known hitherto only for their cellars and the names of their vintages. Exterior, interior, detail and landscape photographs capture the splendor of these homes whose intimate interiors had, until the publication of this book, only been shared by their owners with a few guests drawn from the world’s prestigious ranks. Daniel Rey collaborates with several magazines such as FMR and Architecture Digest. He is the author of travel reports on behalf of Condé Nast Traveler and Louis Vuitton City Guide. He currently lives in Rome and Marrakech. Graziano Villa is a photographer specializing in portraits, still-lifes and travel reports.

Mimmo Paladino SCULPTURE 1980-2008 EDITED BY ENZO DI MARTINO With over 400 sculptures, this volume documents the entire plastic work of a major protagonist of contemporary art.

Niki de Saint Phalle EDITED BY STEFANO CECCHETTO The full range of Saint Phalle’s oeuvre is paid glorious tribute in this retrospective volume, which also features new images and an extended biography.

Niki de Saint Phalle was an eclectic artist whose entire oeuvre strives to communicate the message that art is not a linear course of growth and perfecting, but a continuous quest for sensations. She was an artist who poured mythology, creative energy, feminist ideology, personal anxieties, political demands, a call for freedom and a breaking of the mold into her work. This catalogue recreates the course of her development with attention to the chronology of the events from the Shooting Paintings, the expression of the great unrest of those years, and the Nanas, in which the artist attempts to recreate the realm of childhood, to the Tarot Garden in Garavicchio, in which Saint Phalle wed her artistic language to the language of architecture, and the Spiritual Path of her Californian Diary. Stefano Cecchetto is an art critic and curator.

Ermenegildo Zegna 1910-2010 AN ENDURING PASSION FOR FABRIC AND INNOVATION TEXTS BY JAMES HILLMAN, CLAUDIA D’ARPIZIO, SUZY MENKES, D.T. MAX, AND MARIANO MAUGERI The extraordinary story of the first century of a great Italian fashion house that has always been a paragon of style. Gorgeously designed, handsomely bound, and abundantly illustrated, this is the first book ever to present the 100-year history of a leader in men’s luxury clothing and one of the oldest business families in Italy. As a family business, Ermenegildo Zegna goes back to the second half of the nineteenth century. Angelo Zegna a watchmaker by trade, decided to open a wool mill. Of his ten children it was the last, Ermenegildo, born in 1892, who took over what was to become one of the best-known and most dynamic family businesses in Italy. The extensive historical reconstruction of the early decades of Ermenegildo Zegna S.p.A. is followed by a detailed description of the fabrics, techniques, and custom tailoring of its most exclusive garments. Numerous images illustrate the lands providing the raw materials: Australia, Peru, and Mongolia. Just as spectacular is the photo album of the celebrities and spokespersons wearing Zegna, the international advertising campaigns, the list of awards won, and Zegnasponsored sports and cultural affairs (red carpets, openings, car races, environmental and sports events). James Hillman is an American psychologist. Claudia D’Arpizio is a cultural analyst and international fashion expert. Suzy Menkes , who hails from the U.K., has been a fashion reporter for the International Herald Tribune since 1988. She is considered the doyenne of fashion journalism. D.T. Max is a journalist and essayist. Mariano Maugeri is a journalist at the Il Sole 24 Ore financial newspaper and an author of several essays.

Pearls HUBERT BARI AND DAVID LAM A beautifully illustrated book that presents these gems in all their natural luster and social value. Although it appears that it is no longer amongst the mysteries of the world, the fact remains that there is still a lot unknown about the pearl.

As a consequence, a whole range of pearls may exist reflecting the immense variety of mollusks and shells in the world. In Pearls, the history of the pearl is recounted once more, now taking into account these new scientific discoveries. This book also explores the financial stakes associated with cultured pearls, managing to effortlessly combine scientific, historical, cultural, and practical information. Along with showcasing 350 color photographs, this book aims to provide simple and clear facts with documented explanations reflecting the latest research. Professionals and fans of jewellery will find this beautifully illustrated book an entertaining read and a valuable resource. Hubert Bari is a writer and curator. A cultural historian with research interests extending from mineralogy to decorative arts, he is the author of Pink Pearl, also published by Skira (2007).

The fashion designer Tamy Tazi has set her own special mark of distinction on contemporary Moroccan dress: ceremonial or everyday caftans, djellabas, jackets and serouals. Her models embrace two traditions: one is the haute couture that has long been a mainstay of Tamy Tazi’s business as Yves SaintLaurent’s representative in Morocco, the other is the Moroccan heritage. The union of these vital sources has generated a new style in caftans that daringly distinguish themselves from either parent. This book features an outstanding collection of more than 100 rare pieces, reproduced at large-format and with accurate technical specifications. A very useful tool for fashion students and designers, the high quality reproductions and paper make this book suitable for any coffee table. Nadia Mezian is a French-Moroccan writer. Daniel Rey is a journalist. Graziano Villa is a photographer specializing in portraits, still-lifes and travel reports.

Yasuzō Nojima
EDITED BY FILIPPO MAGGIA One of the most important figures in the history of modern Japanese photography. Yasuzō Nojima’s works range from kaiga shugi shashin (pictorial photography) to shink shashin (new/straight photography) of the early twentieth century. His earliest works are characterized by a density and heaviness echoing that of pictorialism, based in his subtle sensitivity and the pigment printing process, the mainstream printing method of that time. In the 1930s, his style took a drastic turn under the influence of new trends in German photography, shifting toward cropped gelatin silver prints in pursuit of a form of expression that is unique to the medium.

Greta Garbo BEAUTY, MYTH, ELEGANCE EDITED BY STEFANIA RICCI The never-before-published wardrobe of a timeless star, for lovers of fashion, photography and film history. Greta Garbo’s influence over fashion has transcended time. Her dresses, suits, impeccably-tailored coats with a slightly masculine look and the indispensable accessories (shoes, bags, glasses, foulards) has created a style emulated, imitated, even occasionally reviled, but never fully examined. For the first time a catalogue of great glamour and a travelling exhibition detail this extraordinary wardrobe whose minimalism fits so well with current fashion trends. Edited by Stefania Ricci, the Director of Museo Salvatore Ferragamo in Florence, as the Divine Greta Garbo was a Ferragamo client from the 1920s until her death, and the founder of the Italian maison designed hundreds of original, classical, futuristic, hand-made shoes and sandals exclusively for her, most of them shown here for the first time.

Caravaggio EDITED BY ROSSELLA VODRET AND FRANCESCO BURANELLI Four hundred years after the death of Caravaggio, some of the world’s most illustrious art historians comment on an extraordinary collection of twenty-five of his works. How is it possible that an artist who lived over four centuries ago is still seen today as an icon of modernity? The answer must be sought in his works; this is where we will grasp Caravaggio’s aesthetic pursuit. He observed without prejudice, hewing close to the truth of things. In short, his was a revolutionary art, one which continues to fascinate laypeople and experts alike to this day. The editors asked some of the world’s preeminent Caravaggio scholars to share their feelings and insights about their favorite works by the artist. The result is an original catalogue of great rigor expressed in deeply human and richly subjective tones. With works from all over the world including Saint John the Baptist from the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kansas City; and The Musicians from New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Interior Splendor by Rochon DANE MCDOWELL PHOTOGRAPHS BY CHRISTIAN SARRAMON The secrets behind the work of chameleon designer Pierre Yves Rochon, who has devoted thirty years to the quest for “absolute comfort.” Is there a signature Rochon style? At first, it is difficult to tell because the designer always adapts his work to the environment in which it unfolds, bringing out the location’s unique spirit. A great traveler, he blends international styles, borrowing from both modern and classical influences. Hailed as a “visionary designer” and “master of grand luxe” by the Financial Times’ How To Spend It, Rochon’s most prestigious commissions include Four Seasons Hotels—in Paris, Florence, Washington, Shanghai and Cairo, for example—and restaurants for several Michelin-starred chefs. His residential work includes sumptuous private homes he has designed across Europe, America, and the Middle East. This monograph—Rochon’s first—reveals the designer’s trademark approach to interior splendor. For him, “the quality of the object and the hand that made it,” is essential for creating a sumptuous interior. He devotes attention to every detail, from the architecture, to the furniture, the lighting, the fabrics, and art objects. Where he inserts a new structure into a space, such as a fireplace or a column, it feels like it has always been there. His interiors thus exude harmony and comfort, while retaining a strong sense of the location’s culture, geography, and history. Dane McDowell , author of Living in Provence and Mediterranean Gardens, is assistant editor of Résidences-Décoration. Christian Sarramon ’s photographs have appeared in Axel Vervoordt: Timeless Interiors, Gourmet Shops of Paris, and Living in Paris.

Essentials of French Cooking CLASSIC RECIPES AND SIMPLE TECHNIQUES HUBERT DELORME, VINCENT BOUÉ FOREWORD BY PAUL BOCUSE PHOTOGRAPHY BY CLAY McLACHLAN Over 200 culinary techniques—the building blocks for how to cook any recipe—are demystified in this illustrated guide to French gastronomy. French cuisine can appear daunting, but it’s one of life’s greatest pleasures. Essentials of French Cooking offers the step-by-step kitchen techniques that are the secret to success. The book opens with a guide to the fundamentals of cooking: knife techniques (chopping, paring), cooking methods (braising, grilling, steaming, poaching, roasting), sauces and stuffings, eggs, dough. Each method is explained in text and photographs; twenty-four are further clarified on the accompanying ninety-minute DVD. Organized in courses, 125 classic recipes—quiche Lorraine, onion soup, tarte Tatin—provide ample inspiration. Each recipe is graded with a three-star rating so that home chefs can gauge its complexity—and expand their cooking abilities gradually with experience. Eight recipes from France’s leading chefs offer the ultimate challenge. Cross references throughout to techniques, DVD footage, glossary terms, and related recipes make navigation easy. Practical resources complete the volume: visual dictionaries of basic kitchen equipment, cuts of meat, and types of herbs, grains, spices, legumes; a glossary; and indexes of the recipes, main ingredients, and culinary techniques. With an introduction by Paul Bocuse, this impressive volume is an essential guide for novice and established cooks alike. Paul Bocuse has held three Michelin stars since 1965. Hubert Delorme and Vincent Boué teach culinary techniques in Brittany, France. Clay McLachlan ’s photographs have been featured in Eric Kayser’s Sweet and Savory Tarts and in Food and Wine.

Exclusive, extravagant, and beautiful, these cosmopolitan socialites were the patrons who galvanized the phenomenal success of the greatest creators of the early twentieth century. It was a whirlwind of sumptuously decorated villas and yachts, up-and-coming haute couture and jewelry designers, and elite evening parties, immortalized by fashion photographers like Cecil Beaton. Combining elegance and fantasy, the members of the Café Society enjoyed a sophisticated, avant-garde lifestyle. Some of the century’s most original talents—from Cole Porter to Yves Saint Laurent—stepped into the limelight via the Café Society. Through archival photographs and period documents, this volume recounts in historical detail the intrigue and impact generated around the world by this stylish jet-set. Thierry Coudert coauthored the exhibition catalog for Cartier 1899–1949 at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in 2007. A close friend of Café Society ringleader Alexis de Redé and collector of Art Deco pieces, he holds extensive archives and period publications on the Café Society. cover © Mme de Cabrol

“An enchanting cross-section of Parisian life by one of the photographers who best captured its many charms.” —The New York Times, 2005 Robert Doisneau (1912–1994) is one of the world’s most famous and popular photographers. His lyrical, touching, and at times nostalgic images have become iconic. He worked as a professional photographer in industry, journalism, and fashion, and later as a freelancer, but his real interest lay in capturing ordinary people in everyday situations on film.

Recipe for Murder FRIGHTFULLY GOOD FOOD INSPIRED BY FICTION ESTÉRELLE PAYANY ILLUSTRATIONS BY JEAN-FRANÇOIS MARTIN Thirty-two great hero−villains of literature lure the reader into the kitchen to sample their signature recipes. Estérelle Payany shares to-die-for recipes inspired by scoundrels from popular literature. Each chapter opens with an excerpt from the original story and quirky illustrations by Jean-François Martin featuring the criminal and his recipe. The Big Bad Wolf roasts three little pigs in their blankets while Snow White’s stepmother concocts bewitching caramel apples. The Queen of Hearts orders Alice to eat treacle tart while Long John Silver stocks the galley with sea biscuits. And although Shakespeare’s infamous Brutus can toss his Caesar salad in a mere ten minutes, Dracula’s paprika hendl is best when simmered from dusk until dawn. It is sure to be a duel to the end between Patrick Bateman’s truffled roast beef and Tom Ripley’s Venetian lemon chicken, but both can be paired nicely with a simple white bean salad from East of Eden’s Cathy Ames. This spirited collection drawing from fairy tales, literary classics, and contemporary favorites is as entertaining as the recipes are scrumptious (and harmless!). And with the winning ingredients in Recipe for Murder—famous literary thrillers and authentic home-style recipes—it would be a crime to pass up this diabolically scrumptious book! Estérelle Payany is a culinary journalist for women’s magazines and author of several cook books. Jean-François Martin ’s illustrations have appeared in The New York Times, Time, The Los Angeles Times, The Progressive, The Washington Post, The Guardian, and Le Monde. He has illustrated numerous children’s books, including Little Red Riding Hood and Marie Aubinais’ The Farm, The Sea, The Jungle, and Birds (Abbeville Kids).

The Jewish Odyssey MAREK HALTER The far-reaching story of a people that, despite facing perpetual struggle, has shaped modern civilization. In The Jewish Odyssey, best-selling author Marek Halter charts the course of Judaism from its origins in Mesopotamia to its place in the world today. Predating all Western culture, its early development of the written word enabled it to lay the foundations of modern civilization. Richly illustrated, the book addresses the extent of Jewish suffering over the years, as well as the lasting contributions of Jews in fields such as science, politics, philosophy, and the arts—from Gutenberg to Einstein, Freud to Trotsky, and Kafka to Dylan. Halter explains the delicate state of interdependence that exists between the significant Jewish Diaspora communities worldwide and the Israeli nation, taking into account the Zionist notion of the Jewish “promised land.” With his expertise, international status, and political insight, Halter offers a unique and compelling view on contemporary issues ranging from anti-Semitism to the emergence of multi-faith families. This engaging illustrated tribute to the Jewish story culminates in a message of hope for the universal freedom of all mankind. Author, academic, and activist Marek Halter has published more than twenty books, including the best-selling Sarah from his Canaan trilogy. As a young child in 1940, Halter escaped with his family from the Warsaw ghetto. He is the founder of the International Committee for Peace in the Middle East and SOS Racisme.

Going beyond cliché, they reveal the contrasting aspects of New York and its inhabitants against a backdrop of neon billboards, wire fencing, and graffiti murals. With an eye for poignant detail, they derive fascination and comedy from seemingly mundane scenes: small children on a ferryboat; a jogger stretching on the West Side Highway.

Documenting the everyday workings of the city, this is a rare insight into the essence of New York life, making it as captivating for the longtime New Yorker as for the armchair traveler.

Japanese Animation BRIGITTE KOYAMA-RICHARD A sweeping journey through the history of Japanese animation, tracing this cultural phenomenon from its origins in traditional art to the present day. A dominant force in its home country since the 1970s, Japanese animation has become a global phenomenon in recent years. But far from being a contemporary invention, anime draws on the same centuries-old artistic traditions that form the basis of manga. Widely disparaged when it first appeared in the West, today the real value of Japanese animation is recognized, and it has inspired international film directors. Fairy tale, romance, adventure, fantasy, science-fiction: anime encompasses many genres and its creativity knows no bounds. Brigitte Koyama-Richard studies the evolution of Japanese animation through the centuries, retracing its history from painted scrolls to woodblock prints, to animated films, first in black and white, and then in color. A number of prominent artists are showcased, including Tezuka Osamu, the “godfather of anime,” and Hayao Miyazaki, founder of the world-renowned Studio Ghibli and creator of films such as Spirited Away—the first anime film to win an Academy Award. Illustrated with over 500 images, many rarely seen in the West, this book bridges the gap between art history and pop culture. Brigitte Koyama-Richard is a professor at the University of Tokyo, where she teaches comparative literature and art history. She has published several works on Japanese art, including 1000 Years of Manga (Flammarion, 2008).

Secret Palaces of Paris ALAIN STELLA AND PHOTOGRAPHY BY FRANCIS HAMMOND A unique glimpse inside a world of luxury, tradition, and splendor. Many historic homes in Paris serve as residences to foreign ambassadors; these historical sites are closed to the general public. From a seventeenth-century hôtel particulier, to a Belle Epoque palace, to a distinctively contemporary setting, each residence rivals the next in its beauty, art collection, and period furniture set against a backdrop of accomplished refinement. Alain Stella invites us over the threshold inside the most prestigious chancelleries and ambassador residences in Paris—from China and Peru to Egypt and Poland. Tapestries inspired by Goya’s drawings grace the lavish salons at the Spanish residence. Jean Prouvé and Charlotte Perriand created a minimalist interior at the Japanese residence that evokes the refined style of a traditional Japanese home. The palace of Eugène de Beauharnais—home to the German ambassadors since 1818—retains its elaborate Empire style, intact since the time of Josephine. Superb photographs, specially commissioned for this book over the course of a year, divulge the secrets of these previously unpublished artistic and architectural treasures. Alain Stella is a traveler and writer. He has published numerous books with Flammarion including The Book of Coffee (1997), The Book of Tea (1992/2005), The Little Book of Coffee (2001), French Tea: Mariage Frères—Three Centuries of Savoir-Faire (2009), Distinctive Vintages (2008), and The Book of Spices (2000). Francis Hammond ’s photographs have been published in French Tea: Mariage Frères and Elegant Entertaining (2009). He regularly works in the fashion and advertising industries, contributes to international magazines, and divides his time between New York and Paris.

Robert Doisneau: Palm Springs ROBERT DOISNEAU INTRODUCTION BY JEAN-PAUL DUBOIS A previously unpublished collection of Robert Doisneau’s color photography provides a unique opportunity to revisit the early years of one of America’s legendary holiday destinations. In 1960, Robert Doisneau was invited by Fortune magazine to cover Palm Springs, the hottest travel destination of the day. Renowned as a playground for the rich and famous, as well as for a silver-haired and well-heeled clientele, it was a world of swimming pools awash with bobbing beehives, martini-fueled parties, and relaxed games of golf, all unfolding against a desert backdrop. There, Doisneau took hundreds of photographs, twenty-three of which were published in the magazine. The rest have been rediscovered in his archives and one hundred are featured here for the first time. Doisneau is best known for his black and white portraits of Parisian street scenes. This rare color collection—which is supplemented with a facsimile reproduction of Doisneau’s original Fortune article— offers a new perspective on his photographic legacy. Accompanying these nostalgic images are extracts from the photographer’s personal correspondence— small masterpieces of derision and self-derision in which he describes being marooned in the “world capital of winter golf ”—and an equally amusing introduction written by award-winning French novelist Jean-Paul Dubois. Robert Doisneau (1912–1994) is one of the world’s most famous and popular photographers. His poetic, touching, and at times nostalgic images have become iconic. He worked as a professional photographer in industry, journalism, and fashion, and later as a freelancer, but his real interest lay in capturing ordinary people in everyday situations on film. Jean-Paul Dubois has written numerous novels including Vie Française (Vintage, 2008).

The Mafia HISTORY AND LEGEND MARCO GASPARINI An illustrated history of the Mafia, focusing on this highly developed criminal organization both as a cult subject and an important social phenomenon. Movie classics like The Godfather epitomize our fascination with the underworld of the Mafia, conjuring images of cigar-smoking dons and shoot-outs in pizzerias. But behind the romantic myths of “men of honor” and omertà lies a very real world of murder, racketeering, and organized crime.
HIP/Scala
Marco Gasparini traces the evolution of the Mafia from nineteenth-century Sicily to the streets of twentieth-century New York, to the international cartels that rule the illegal drug and arms trades today. In this authoritative volume he exposes the many secrets of an “octopus” organization that has remained impenetrable for decades, despite the efforts of heroic crime fighters such as New York police officer Joe Petrosino and the similarly ill-fated Italian judge Giovanni Falcone almost a century later. We discover the Mafia’s greatest godfathers, underbosses, and “soldiers,” as well as its pentiti (or turncoats) and the most formidable wives of Mafiosi. This book not only focuses on the original Sicilian Cosa Nostra and its various branches—such as Al Capone’s Chicago Outfit or the still existent Corleonesi—it also features the equally bloody Neapolitan Camorra, which inspired the compelling documentary Gomorrah, and the Japanese Yakuza, the largest organized crime group in the world today, as well as the ever-growing Russian and Chinese “mafias.” Mafia reveals the multi-faceted reality behind a phenomenon that has sparked the popular imagination for decades. Marco Gasparini is a journalist specializing in political and financial reporting, and writes a regular column for Il Sole 24 Ore.

Behind the Wheel SPEED, STYLE, AND INNOVATION ON THE ROAD ROBERT PUYAL Introducing legendary stars of the thrilling world of the automobile. In Behind the Wheel, Robert Puyal presents eighty idols of the automobile world, including pioneers of the automotive industry, champion racing drivers, superstar car aficionados, and celebrated fictional characters. Among the inspirational figures featured is Henry Ford, who, overcoming his illiteracy, broke the land speed record with a machine of his own design. He went on to make the joys of driving available to the widest possible public with his innovative, mass-produced Ford Model T. From a similarly modest background, Juan Manuel Fangio started out as a mechanic in a small village in Argentina, competing in perilous amateur road races before his talent was finally discovered. Sent to Europe on a government grant, he won five Formula One world championships, becoming arguably the greatest driver in the history of the sport. Steve McQueen and Paul Newman are among the many Hollywood stars to have been bitten by the racing bug; when James Dean met his death behind the wheel of his Porsche 550 RS nicknamed “Little Bastard,” a legend was born. Meanwhile, cars themselves have also played starring roles onscreen: 007’s trademark Aston Martins have endured continual destruction in the James Bond films over the years, only to become enduring big screen icons in their own right.
© EON/UNITED ARTISTS/THE KOBAL COLLECTION
High-speed thrills have always attracted a cast of characters as diverse as it is devoted, and this book is a classic tribute. Robert Puyal has been an automobile journalist for thirty years, and specializes in motorsport and the history of car makes and models.

The Century of Modern Design SELECTIONS FROM THE LILIANE AND DAVID M. STEWART COLLECTION EDITED WITH INTRODUCTION BY DAVID HANKS MARTIN EIDELBERG One of the world’s most important collections of twentieth-century design—the Stewart Collection in Montreal—celebrates its thirtieth anniversary in 2010.
DESIGN 480 pages, 86 x 95” 500 color & b/w illustrations HC w/ jacket: 978-2-08-030161-1 $49.95 Can: $59.00 October 5, 2010 Rights: US/Canada FLAMMARION
The Stewart Collection incorporates iconic furniture, ceramics, textiles, posters, graphic art, jewelry, and everyday objects from the 1930s to today. This book presents items chronologically, highlighting contrasts and parallels between works including posters by Max Bill and an armchair by Frank Lloyd Wright. Each decade of the twentieth century is introduced by an essay giving the context that shaped the works, providing a history of modern design. Great designers, including lesser-known but highly influential figures, are presented alongside their signature creations that retain a prominent place in the design world today. David A. Hanks is the curator of the Stewart Program for Modern Design at the Montreal Museum, and author of Design for Living. Martin Eidelberg is Professor Emeritus, Art History, at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, and contributed to Abrams’ Masterworks of Louis Comfort Tiffany and Design in America: The Cranbrook Vision 1925–1950.
Manet JAMES RUBIN An authoritative work on Edouard Manet, viewed by many as the father of modern painting. Few artists have created as much controversy as Manet: his avant-garde work not only challenged the traditions of art, but also addressed society as a whole. With his painting Olympia (1869), he was to become, to quote Degas, “as famous as Garibaldi.” Yet how the diffident son of a bourgeois family became the father of both realism and impressionism is a complex story that has too often been overlooked. As Manet has rightly become recognized as a touchstone for historical change, his personal story has become all the more relevant to the study of art history.
ART MONOGRAPH 432 pages, 95 x 124” 300 color & b/w illustrations HC w/ jacket & slipcase: 978-2-08-030106-2 $135.00 Can: $159.00 September 14, 2010 Rights: US/Canada FLAMMARION
This lavishly illustrated volume, presented in a handsome slipcase, offers a comprehensive study of the great master. James Rubin is professor of Art History at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, and is widely known for his work on nineteenth-century French art. He has been published on subjects including impressionism and realism, and the artists Tournachon, Manet, Courbet, and Proudhon.

Lakeside Living HOUSES OF THE GREAT LAKES LINDA LEIGH PAUL A rare glimpse at the stunning homes of the Great Lakes. Gorgeous new photography captures the rich architectural tradition, breathtaking landscapes, and rugged, relaxed lifestyle of this eternally popular American region.
The lakeside home represents its owner’s love for the outdoors and passion for life on the water. Houses by the lake are designed to maximize the flow of air, the use of sunlight, and the views of the landscape. These Great Lakes homes range in style from converted barns and Prairie Style houses to modernist inspired dwellings but each is always a reflection of the style, taste and interests of their owners. The houses featured here illustrate an experimentation with materials and an economy of design. Residences are designed to be practical— many can “close up” during adventures in the outof-doors and travels—and they exhibit an open-minded style in which to live. Great Lakes houses are modern yet sufficiently warm and inviting to provide comfort for life here.
