An exploration of a formative chapter in Basquiat’s brief career through the lens of his identity and the role of cultural activism in New York City during the early years of the 1980s

Text by Johanna F. Almiron, Chaédria LaBouvier, Nancy Spector and Joan Young

Basquiat’s Defacement: The Untold Story Jean-Michel Basquiat painted Defacement (The Death of Michael Stewart) in 1983 to commemorate the death of a young, black artist who died from injuries sustained while in police custody after being arrested for allegedly tagging a New York City subway station.Published to accompany a focused exhibition of Basquiat’s response to anti-black racism and police brutality, this catalogue explores a chapter in the artist’s career through both the lens of his identity and the Lower East Side as a nexus of activism in the early 1980s. An introduction by Chaédria LaBouvier, Nancy Spector and Joan Young, and an essay by Johanna F.

Almiron are supplemented by commentary from artists, activists and other cultural figures who were part of this episode in the city’s history, which invokes today’s urgent conversations about state-sanctioned racism. Johanna F. Almiron is an interdisciplinary cultural studies scholar and Assistant Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Chaédria LaBouvier is a scholar and writer who has explored Basquiat’s Defacement in great depth. Nancy Spector is Artistic Director and Jennifer and David Stockman Chief Curator at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. Joan Young is Director of Curatorial Affairs at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum.

Toulouse-Lautrec and the Stars of Paris This tour of the Parisian scene focuses on six performers who were depicted in and in some senses defined by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec’s renderings – Yvette Guilbert, Jane Avril, Aristide Bruant, Marcelle Lender, May Belfort and Loïe Fuller – and explores how the performers and the artist collaborated in exploiting new mass media to create a new stardom.

Joanna Wendel is Morse Curatorial Research Fellow in the Department of Prints and Drawings at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

Henry James minced no words in crediting John Singer Sargent with a ‘knock-down insolence of talent.’ Among the painter’s many renowned works, few deserve the phrase as much as The Daughters of Edward Darley Boit, which stands alongside Madame X and Lady Agnew of Lochnaw as one of Sargent’s greatest images. The painting, depicting four young sisters in the family apartment, both explores and defies convention, crossing the boundaries between portrait and genre scene, formal composition and casual snapshot. At its unveiling, one prominent critic rushed to praise Sargent’s stunning originality, while another dismissed the canvas as ‘four corners anda void.’ Using numerous unpublished archival documents, Erica

E. Hirshler explores this iconic canvas from a variety of angles, discussing its innovative significance as a work of art, the people involved in its making and what became of them, its importance to Sargent’s career, its place in the tradition of artistic patronage, and its changing meanings and lasting popularity. Sargent’s Daughters is an evocative, multifaceted book that will transform the way you look at Sargent’s work, simultaneously illuminating a much beloved painting and reaffirming its mystery. Erica H. Hirshler is Croll Senior Curator of American Paintings at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

Graciela Iturbide’s Mexico Photographs

Graciela Iturbide, best known for iconic photographs of indigenous women of Mexico, has engaged with her homeland as a subject for the past fifty years in images of great variety and depth. The intensely personal, lyrical photographs collected and interpreted in this book show that, for her, photography is a way of life – as well as a way of seeing and understanding Mexico, with all its beauties, rituals, challenges, and contradictions. The Mexico portrayed here is a country in constant transition, defined by tensions between urban and rural life, and indigenous and modern life. Iturbide’s deep connection with her subjects – among them political

protests, celebrations and rituals, desert landscapes, cities, places of burial – produces indelible images that encompass dreams, symbols, reality, and daily life. This volume presents more than a hundred beautifully reproduced black-and-white photographs, accompanied by illuminating essays inviting readers to share in Graciela Iturbide’s personal artistic journey through the country she knows so intimately. Kristen Gresh is Estrellita and Yousuf Karsh Curator of Photographs at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

The ancient cultures of the Americas comprise a vast array of societies, whose peoples spoke thousands of languages and dialects, developed distinctive political and economic systems, and followed myriad spiritual practices. The intellectual, architectural and artistic accomplishments of the ancient American peoples include fully developed writing systems, the tallest structures in the western hemisphere until the 20th century, and textiles and painted ceramics of unsurpassed complexity and refinement. The collection at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, is particularly strong in Maya ceramics, early Andean textiles, and gold objects from Panama and Colombia, and

throughout its history the Museum has been at the forefront in presenting pre-Columbian artefacts as part of art history rather than in the context of natural history or archaeology. The artworks featured in this volume exemplify the aesthetics and supreme craftsmanship of the peoples of the ancient Americas in pictorial pottery, sumptuous gold body adornments and luxury textiles. Together they introduce the sophistication, creativity and variety of the cultures of the Western Hemisphere’s cradle of civilization.

A thought-provoking exploration of MoMA’s complex historical relationship with black artists and black audiences

Edited by Darby English with Charlotte Barat

Among Others: Blackness at MoMA This expansive collection of essays on nearly two hundred works in the collection of The Museum of Modern Art is the first substantial exploration of MoMA’s complex historical relationship with black artists, black audiences, and the broader subject of racial blackness. By addressing these subjects through the consideration of works produced either by black artists or in response to racerelated subjects, Among Others is equal parts historical investigation and truth-telling about the Museum’s role in the history of the cultural politics of race. Two main essays trace the history of MoMA’s encounters with racial

blackness since its founding and scrutinize the Museum’s record in collecting the work of black artists. These are followed by nearly two hundred plates, each accompanied by an essay by one of the over one hundred authors who hail from a range of fields. Darby English is Adjunct Curator in the Department of Painting and Sculpture at The Museum of Modern Art, New York and Carl Darling Buck Professor at the University of Chicago. Charlotte Barat is Curatorial Assistant in the Department of Painting and Sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

MoMA Highlights

History of PS1

This new edition of MoMA Highlights presents 375 works from the Museum’s unparalleled collection of modern and contemporary art. Featuring 170 new selections – a greater representation of women, artists of colour and artists from around world – this updated volume reflects the inclusionary ethos of the newly expanded museum. MoMA Highlights begins with a photograph made around 1867 and concludes in 2017, with an Oscarnominated documentary film. In between, readers will encounter some of the most beloved artworks in the Museum’s collection – iconic works by Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, Frida Kahlo and Andy Warhol, among

many others – and discover lesser known but equally fascinating and significant objects of art, architecture and design from around the world. Each work is represented by a vibrant image and a lively and informative text, many of which have been newly written or significantly revised for this edition. Published to accompany the opening of the Museum’s new and expanded collection galleries in 2019, MoMA Highlights is an indispensable survey of one of the world’s premier collections of ‘the art of our time.’ The authors are all curators at the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

Since its inception in the early 1970s, MoMA PS1 has been a crucible for radical experimentation. Committed to New York City as well as to maintaining an international scope, PS1 has always put the artist at the centre, engaging practitioners at work in every discipline. This groundbreaking publication captures the vibrancy of a long and venerable tradition that began with the legendary series of performances and events organized by founder Alanna Heiss under the Brooklyn Bridge in 1971. Organized into four main sections that delve into the former school’s rich history as an art centre from the 1970s to the present, the book features in-depth conversations between Heiss and Klaus Biesenbach, former director of

Kahlo: Self-Portrait with Cropped Hair

Betye Saar: Black Girl’s Window

Neutral hues, an ill-fitting man’s suit, and wiggling locks of cut hair supplant Frida Kahlo’s usual lively color palette, indigenous Mexican dress, and long plaits in Self-Portrait with Cropped Hair (1940). Nevertheless, the painting remains unmistakably Kahlo’s. Jodi Robert’s essay situates Kahlo’s painting in the context of the Mexican Revolution’s legacy, the Surrealist tradition and the artist’s own life to explore the ways in which Kahlo constructed and reconstructed her own identity

Made at a critical juncture in Saar’s career, the enigmatic assemblage Black Girl’s Window (1969) was recognized by the artist as a crucial link between her past and future even at the time she made it. Drawing on new research into the work’s construction and materials, and on firsthand discussions with the artist regarding the making of Black Girl’s Window and the themes behind her evocative imagery, this concise, generously illustrated volume explores one of Saar’s best known and most iconic works.

Anne Umland de Chirico: The Song of Love

Sophie Taeuber-Arp: Dada Head A dancer, designer, puppet maker, sculptor and painter at the heart of the Dada movement, Taeuber-Arp made Head in the wake of World War I, during a time of profound cultural self-questioning. Almost a century later, her witty wooden figure has lost none of its punch as an investigation of art across aesthetic and material boundaries rather than within them. Anne Umland’s essay positions this intriguingly anthropomorphic work within the broader arc of Taeuber-Arp’s remarkably vibrant and versatile career. 12

Frances Benjamin Johnston: The Hampton Album

Lincoln Kirstein’s Modern Lincoln Kirstein was an omnivorous writer, critic, curator and impresario, an indefatigable catalyst who drove and supported American artists and institutions in the 1930s and 40s. While he is perhaps best known as the founder of the New York City Ballet, he is also a crucial figure in The Museum of Modern Art’s own history: he shaped exhibitions on topics ranging from mural design to Magic Realism; acquired Latin American works for the collection under the auspices of the Inter-American Fund; established the Museum’s Dance Archives and department of Dance and Theater Design; and contributed an alternative vision to a Museum known for its devotion to abstraction. Published in conjunction with an exhibition devoted to the networks around Kirstein, this book examines the

Frances Benjamin Johnston (1864–1952), one of the first women in America to work as a professional photographer, was commissioned in 1899 to photograph the Hampton Institute, then a thirty-year-old institution dedicated to the practical and academic education of freed slaves and Native Americans. What became known as the Hampton Album – comprising 159 platinum plates exhibited in 1900 at the Exposition Universelle in Paris – is Johnston’s signature work, and has become a touchstone for historians and artists. The leather-bound album was discovered serendipitously by Lincoln Kirstein in a Washington, D.C. bookstore during World War II and

donated to MoMA in 1965. This hardback edition makes the album available to the public in its entirety for the first time.

Complexity and Contradiction at Fifty

Structured Lineages Learning from Japanese Structural Design

Originally delivered as talks at a symposium held at The Museum of Modern Art in 2016, on the occasion of the exhibition A Japanese Constellation: Toyo Ito, SANAA, and Beyond, the ten essays gathered in this volume offer insight into the collaborations between architects and structural engineers that engendered many of the most important buildings erected in Japan after 1945, with special focus on the work of Tange Kenzo, Kawaguchi Mamoru, Kimura Toshihiko, Matsui Gengo, Saitoh Masao, Sasaki Mutsuro and Tsuboi Yoshikatsu. These conversations and essays – each accompanied by an expansive array of archival and contemporary photographs – illustrate how intimately the innovations of this collaborative tradition passed from one

The diverse backgrounds of the scholars and engineers who contributed to Structured Lineages inform the book’s uniquely international perspective on the spirit of creativity and co-operation that arose in Japan in the latter half of the 20th century and persists in Japanese architectural practices to this day.

Ten essays and a selection of original papers – introduced at a three-day international conference co-organized by MoMA to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the book – address diverse issues, such as the book’s relationship to Venturi’s own built oeuvre and its significance in the contemporary landscape.

Marlene Dumas juxtaposes her own works with works by Edvard Munch, assembling what she describes as ‘a love story about tenderness, passion and agony’

Marlene Dumas, Edvard Munch and Trine Otte Bak Nielsen

Omega’s Eyes Marlene Dumas on Edvard Munch

Dumas’s personal experience of Munch’s art is the starting point for this book. During her youth, she was fascinated by the anxiety in his subject matter, but in the beginning of her own artistic career, there was a period of time in which she didn’t regard him as quite as relevant as he’d once been. According to Dumas, she ‘wasn’t drawn to a man who was celebrated for having represented all women as vampires.’ She believes the media’s emphasis on his complicated relationship with women overshadowed his artistic abilities, but gradually she began to view his art differently. In 1981 she saw the Alpha and Omega lithographs at the Munch Museum, and the series made a strong impression on her. She liked the vitality of Munch’s line, and wanted to create images with the same type of energy. According to Dumas, it is Munch’s lines that ‘carry the emotion.’

Dumas’s encounter with Alpha and Omega made her aware that she had an affinity with Munch. ‘I’ve always said that I wanted to paint love stories, and here was Munch doing just that many years before me,’ she writes. Now Dumas wants to peel away the anecdotes and myths about Munch, and instead direct attention to how he painted modern love stories, ‘not just between men and women, but also between people and nature. How we all struggle with love, alienation and death.’ Marlene Dumas is one of contemporary art’s most influential artists. Trine Otte Bak Nielsen has been a curator at the Munch Museum since 2014, where she co-curated ‘Moonrise. Marlene Dumas & Edvard Munch’ in 2018.

Stefano Zuffi

Leonardo in Detail Leonardo da Vinci (1452–1519) is considered one of the greatest painters of all times. Often described as the archetype of the homo universalis, he was a true Renaissance polymath, active in fields as diverse as astronomy, painting, sculpting, science, mathematics, engineering, cartography and architecture. Leonardo’s true genius was not as a scientist or an artist, but as a combination of the two: his painting was based on a deep understanding of the workings of the human body and the physics of light and shade. Only two dozen works are attributed to the Florentine master and this book

The Incas and their predecessors are renowned for their ceramics, their precious metalwork and their colossal stone buildings. But how did they dress? Precious textiles were used by the Incas not only to clothe themselves but also as a symbol of power and identity, for sacrificial purposes and as a means of exchange. This book showcases a breathtaking selection of textiles and feathers, as well as gold, silver and shell jewelry. With texts by ten renowned scholars and over 300 colour illustrations, Inca: Textiles and Ornaments from the Andes will allow you to discover the Inca’s mastery of the art of weaving, the incredible motifs and the variety of colours of fibres and feathers used in their textiles.

This publication presents some of the highest artistic achievements in Chinese history. Drawing on the exceptional collection of the National Palace Museum in Taipei, Heaven & Earth in Chinese art: Treasures from the National Palace Museum, Taipei celebrates the rich heritage of Chinese culture through the ancient Chinese concept of tian ren he yi – unity or harmony between heaven, nature and humanity. As expressed by Song dynasty scholar Zhang Zai (1020–77), who developed this concept of unity, ‘nature is the result of the fusion and intermingling of the vital forces (qi) that assume tangible forms.

Mountains, rivers, rocks, trees, animals and human beings are all modalities of energy-matter, symbolising that the creative transformation of the Tao [Dao] is forever present.’ Similar expressions of this unity are common to the three major philosophical and religious traditions of Daoism, Confucianism and Buddhism, which form the foundation of the Chinese belief system.

Karyn Lai is associate professor of Philosophy in the School of Humanities and Languages at the University of New South Wales.

Nonggirrnga Marawili is one of the most distinctive Aboriginal artists working today. From her home in Yirrkala, Marawili has revolutionised the art of north-eastern Arnhem Land while adhering to cultural protocols. In her prints, drawings and paintings – on paper, board, bark, larakitj and aluminium – Marawili captures the landscape, radically transformed and re-imagined in a very personal artistic vision. Her interest in atmospheric effects is brought to life through the movement of wind, water or unseen forces. She is not simply documenting sites of importance, she is capturing the dynamism of a living landscape, as she connects with the sentience of country.

Showcases Phyllis Galembo’s extraordinary photographs of the costume, ritual and traditions of masquerade Mexico

Photography by Phyllis Galembo • Text by Victor M. Espinosa and George Otis

Phyllis Galembo: Mexico, Masks and Rituals Phyllis Galembo has travelled all over the globe to sites of ritual masquerade. In Africa, the Caribbean, and now Mexico, she captures cultural performances with a subterranean political edge. Using a direct, unaffected portrait style, Galembo captures her subjects informally posed but often strikingly attired in traditional or ritualistic dress. Attuned to a moment’s collision of past, present and future, Galembo finds the timeless elegance and dignity of her subjects. Masking is a complex, mysterious, and profound tradition in which the participants transcend the physical world and enter the spiritual realm. In her vibrant images, Galembo exposes an ornate code of political, artistic, theatrical, social and religious symbolism and commentary. Galembo highlights the creativity of the individuals morphing into a fantastical representation of themselves, having

cobbled together materials gathered from the immediate environment to idealize their vision of mythical figures. While still pronounced in their personal identity, the subject’s intentions are rooted in the larger dynamics of religious, political and cultural affiliation. Establishing these connections is a hallmark of Galembo’s work. Phyllis Galembo was a professor in the Fine Arts Department of SUNY Albany from 1978 to 2018. Her photographs are included in numerous public and private collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the New York Public Library. She was a Guggenheim fellow in 2014, and also received a grant from the New York Foundation for the Arts. Galembo lives in New York City.

Berenice Abbott: Portraits of Modernity Berenice Abbott was one of the first people to photograph New York. Seen through her camera lens the city became a living entity, a remarkable character who visitors can now pursue as they move through its crowded streets, looking upwards to discover the modern beauty of its skyscrapers. Shops, people, bridges, streets, interiors, famous buildings under construction seen from outside or from above together make up this portrait. This book presents Berenice Abbott’s work in three themes: portraits, photographs of the city and scientific photographs. The opening section celebrates the modernity in Abbott’s portraits of mouldbreaking individuals who

Picasso: Ceramics changed the world from the mid-1920s onwards. The second part offers a dazzling portrait of New York, and explores Abbott’s relationship with Atget and her fascination for him. It includes an introductory group of Atget’s photographs, which she printed from his negatives. The third and final section focuses on Abbott’s scientific photographs, which she began making in the late 1940s. Gary Van Zante is Curator of the MIT Museum. Estrella de Diego is a well-known Spanish art critic and historian. Cara Hoffman is a New York City-based writer. She is the author of three critically acclaimed novels, So Much Pretty, Be Safe, I Love You and Running.

In 1946, Pablo Picasso visited an exhibition of ceramics in Vallauris, an area in southeastern France known for its many potteries. He would move to the region soon after, establishing a steady relationship with the Madoura ceramics workshop in 1948. It was a watershed moment for Picasso, who throughout his long life was always on the lookout for new artistic challenges in all conceivable materials. Picasso’s experiments with various ceramic materials, oxides and glazes produced a huge body of work: some 4,000 ceramic objects bearing the motifs of animals, fauns and women evoked through Picasso’s whimsical, elegant handling of shape and line. This major body of work in ceramics forms a lesser-known but highly original part

of the oeuvre of an artist who was constantly reinventing himself and his forms. This book presents more than 150 of Picasso’s most important ceramic works reproduced in beautiful fourcolour printing, as well as new texts about the artist’s pieces in this medium. The book also contains a detailed glossary of ceramic terms and a review of the forms most commonly used by Picasso. The only book in print on this beautiful and highly imaginative part of Picasso’s oeuvre, Picasso: Ceramics is an essential volume. Helle Crenzien and Kirsten Degel are curators at Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Copenhagen, Denmark.

R. Crumb’s Dream Diary

The Moon From Inner Worlds to Outer Space

The moon has long furnished humankind with an artistic icon, an image of longing and object of scientific inquiry. Encompassing art, film, literature, architecture, design, natural history and historical objects, and published on the 50th anniversary of the first manned landing on 20 July 1969, The Moon surveys the iconography of the moon, from Romantic landscape paintings to space-age art. It takes the 1969 landing as a thematic fulcrum and a culmination of the deep-rooted cultural conceptions invested in the space race in the 1960s, from David Bowie to Disney.

The book also accounts for the science of the moon throughout the ages, from Galileo to NASA, addressing the many lunar myths that have existed throughout time. The Moon looks at all these lunar themes in a thrilling and inspirational gathering for anyone who has felt the moon’s pull on their imagination. Lærke Rydal Jørgensen has published widely on art, folklore and folk literature. Marie Laurberg is a curator at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Copenhagen.

For more than forty years, legendary American artist Robert Crumb has documented his nightly dreams in a meticulously kept private journal. This material has stood as a guarded secret in a career defined by an impish compulsion to publically self-disclose. All of the artist’s well-documented preoccupations are present and accounted for – rampant egomania, insatiable lust, profound self-disgust, the sad beauty of old America, the moral bankruptcy of new America and the fool’s errand quest for spiritual enlightenment – but here they are entirely untamed, springing forth from forces beyond even his control.

Published for the first time, the complete Dream Diaries offer readers a deep, dark look under the hood of one of America’s most aggressively dynamic comedic voices. Widely considered the greatest cartoonist of the 20th century, Robert Crumb has been drawing comics since his youth. His most recent books include Bible of Filth, Art & Beauty Magazine and (with Aline Kominsky-Crumb) Drawn Together. Crumb lives and works in Southern France.

Cecily Brown: Where, When, How Often and With Whom The British painter Cecily Brown (b 1969), based in New York since the 1990s, is one of the central figures in the international resurgence of painting since the turn of the century. Combining abstraction and figuration, she creates vivid, atmospheric depictions of fragmented bodies, often in erotic positions in the midst of swells of colour and movement. Brown pays tribute to the potential of painting for seduction, and draws on references ranging from classic pornography to elements from the visual worlds of Bosch, Goya and Hogarth, and most recently motifs from the human disasters of our own time. Having also been compared to painters like Bacon and de Kooning, Brown’s work offers a

This catalogue is published to accompany the exhibition at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, Madrid, on Max Beckmann (1884–1950), one of Germany’s leading 20th-century artists. It brings together more than fifty works, including paintings, lithographs and sculptures that cover Beckmann’s years in Germany from the period prior to World War I, when he first achieved public recognition, to the rise of National Socialism in the 1930s, when he was expelled from the Frankfurt art school where he taught and was banned from exhibiting in public. The exhibition also focuses on the artist’s years in Amsterdam and the United States where he lived after he was obliged to leave Germany. This section is based on four

metaphors relating to exile, understood both literally and as the existential condition of modern man: Masks, which looks at the loss of identity associated with the condition of exile; Electric Babylon, which focuses on the modern city as the capital of exile; The Long Goodbye, which constructs a parallel between exile and death; and The Sea, a metaphor of the infinite, its powers of seduction and alienation.

Paula Rego Obedience and Defiance

Born in Lisbon in 1935, Paula Rego DBE left Portugal as a teenager to study in London, which has been her principal home for more than sixty years. She is celebrated for bold and intense paintings, drawings and prints that intertwine the private and the public, the intimate and the political, combining autobiographical elements with stories from literature, folklore and mythology, references to earlier art, and observations on the contemporary world. This book accompanies a major touring exhibition spanning Rego’s entire career since the 1960s, with a focus on work that addresses the moral challenges to humanity, particularly in the face of violence, poverty, political tyranny, gender discrimination and grief. The selected pictures, which include previously unseen paintings and works on paper from the artist’s family and close friends, reflect Rego’s perspective as an empathetic, courageous

woman and a defender of justice. The book includes a substantial text by exhibition curator Catherine Lampert that will consider Rego’s oeuvre as a whole and draw upon the artist’s own interpretations and revelations about individual works, as well as an appreciation of the artist’s achievements by the acclaimed young American writer Kate Zambreno. Catherine Lampert has curated numerous exhibitions at the Hayward Gallery, the Whitechapel Gallery, where she was director from 1988 to 2001 and more recently at the Royal Academy of the Arts, Tate Britain and the Kunstmuseum Bonn. Kate Zambreno is the author of the acclaimed novels O Fallen Angel and Green Girl, and Heroines, a volume of feminist literary scholarship. Anthony Spira is Director of MK Gallery, Milton Keynes.

Paul Gauguin • Preface by Émile Gauguin Translated by Van Wyck Brooks

Carton Moore Park

Paul Gauguin’s Intimate Journals

An Alphabet of Animals

Unappreciated in his own lifetime, Paul Gauguin is now recognized as one of the giants of French post-Impressionism and a pioneer of early modernism. A rebel in both art and life, he rejected his bourgeois upbringing to devote his life to painting. Eventually, dismayed by the ‘hypocrisy of civilization’, he left his wife and children and took up residence in the South Seas for good. In the final months of his life, he wrote this witty and revealing autobiographical memoir with the request that it be published upon his death. As his son Émile wrote in the preface, ‘These journals are an illuminating self-portrait of a unique personality.’ Wide-ranging and elliptical, these candid reflections reveal Gauguin’s inner thoughts about many

subjects, including frank views on his fellow artists back in Paris, his turbulent relationship with Van Gogh, and the charms of Polynesian women, while providing glimpses into his often far-from-idyllic life in the islands. This beautiful facsimile reproduces the first American translation of the journals, a rare limited edition privately published in New York in 1921 for a select group of subscribers. With full-page sketches by the artist, these entertaining and enlightening musings give us a unique insight into Gauguin the man and the artist. Van Wyck Brooks (1886–1963) was a literary critic and biographer. Émile Gauguin (1874–1955) was Paul Gauguin’s eldest son.

This charming volume is a facsimile of a children’s ABC of animals first published in 1899. Commissioned by Glasgow publisher Blackie & Son, it contains a short description and a full-page grisaille drawing for each animal, beginning with A for armadillo and ending with Z for zebra, with vignettes accompanying each letter of the alphabet. The quirky drawings, with the modern-looking crops and close-up perspective, made the book stand out from all other alphabets of the day. The plate of the hippopotamus, for example, conveys the great bulk of the animal by forcing it up against the frame, while the image of the bat has the creature flying almost in the reader’s face. The picture of the leopard is one of several plates that reveal

Moore Park’s interest in Japanese art. When the book was published, critics acclaimed the artist’s strong handling and accurate anatomical knowledge, as well as his profound appreciation of the habits and movements of the animals depicted and his close sympathy with his subjects. One wrote that, ‘It is certainly the best book of the kind we have ever seen.’ A hundred and twenty years after it was first published, this exquisite rediscovered book – very much of its moment but modern in spirit – will enchant and educate a new generation of children. Carton Moore Park (1877–1956) was a British painter, illustrator and teacher, born in Scotland.

The Very Public Art of Heather and Ivan Morison

Heather and Ivan Morison and their studio have established an ambitious collaborative practice that transcends traditional divisions between art, architecture, theatre and activism. Their work is often performance-based and site-specific, existing as one-off events, social projects or large-scale installations and buildings in public spaces. Love Me or Leave Me Alone presents a journey through the past decade of the pair’s practice, with an emphasis on their pavilions, escape vehicles and public art works. It shows how the artists engage with materials, histories, sites and processes, as well as other areas of creativity, thought and commerce, to directly address the major societal questions of our time.

Redesign your sex life with this tongue-in-cheek architecture- and design-themed take on the Kama Sutra

Miguel Bolivar

The Archisutra The Handbook’s Final Chapter

‘Truss Me’, ‘Eames it in’ and ‘Get an Eiffel’ are just some of the sexual positions listed in this architecture- and designthemed take on the Kama Sutra, the ancient Indian Hindu guide to love and sex. Le Corbusier coined the phrase ‘machines for living’ in his book, Towards an Architecture in 1923. Sex plays a large role in society and everyday life. So why is it so often overlooked when an architect designs a building? Miguel Bolivar’s tongue-in-cheek sex manual uses witty

descriptions and annotated scale drawings to demonstrate various sexual positions, all inspired by iconic buildings and often incorporating surprising uses for designer furniture. The Archisutra builds on the work of Vitruvius, da Vinci and Le Corbusier in pushing the idea that buildings should be designed around human life. Miguel Bolivar is an architectural designer living and working in London.

Working on a diverse range of projects, their ambition is to develop clear proposals based on a deep understanding of the specific social and economic contexts. Their projects reduce architecture to its fundamentals, often with an emphasis on function, basic materials and structural economy. Many of their projects support flexible infrastructures that are capable of future iterations and uses, encouraging sustainability and

longevity in the building industry. Arrhov Frick is invested in every stage of the architectural practice, from early investigations to construction itself. Past clients include Genova Property Group and ALM Equity. Johan Arrhov and Henrik Frick received their Masters in architecture from KTH Royal Institute of Technology in 2007, and went on to establish Arrhov Frick in 2010 in Stockholm, Sweden.

Sculpture 1986–2000 This publication begins where the previous volume, Sculpture 1969–1985 left off, tracing the artist’s move from making sculptures using found materials and objects to a more studio-based practice. It serves as a guide, aiming to facilitate a better understanding not just of the chronological sequencing of Cragg’s works, but also of the primary concerns that have influenced them over time.

Tony Cragg is one of the world’s foremost sculptors. He lives and works in Wuppertal, Germany.

For All Beloved in the World offers a thematic overview of the work of German artist Jorg Immendorff, whose identity is deeply enshrined in his home country’s history and characterized by a post-war background. Rather than follollwing a strict chronology, more than 120 works – both iconic paintings and rare loans – present a key element in the artist’s development to give a nuanced view of the artist’s life and work.

Furniture Boom Mid-Century Modern Danish Furniture 1945–1975

Danish design plays an important part in what has come to be known as the Mid-Century Modern style. Timeless furniture pieces, such as the Hans J. Wegner’s Y-Chair and Finn Juhl’s Chieftain Chair, influenced designers all over the world and are still considered classics. This book is the first to present an overview of the furniture created by Danish designers and architects, in the period between 1945– 1975, tracing the movement from beginning to end. Design history expert Lars Dybdahl provides thorough descriptions and analyses of particular furniture pieces, never failing to situate them within a historical and cultural

With the experiences from the Swan, the Styropor and the casting technique also provided the technological basis for the unconventional concept behind the heavier, more voluminous body of the Egg. In both chairs, the finished shells after cooling were padded with cast latex foam in varying degrees of thickness and then upholstered with leather – as defined by Jacobsen’s own concept – or in black leatherette or textile. The same types of upholstery are used today, while the shell is now made of polyurethane with its edges reinforced with fibreglass. In a flattering solution, the near-floating shells in both the Swan and the Egg were originally supported by a cruciform column construction with a star-shaped base cast in one piece in aluminium, a lightweight material that contributed to the chairs’ low weight of approximately 7 and 13 kilograms, respectively. Originally, buyers could choose between chairs with or without a swivel link in between the shell and column, and at some point during the 1970s, Fritz Hansens Eftf. rejected the aesthetic principle of unity in the column base in favour of a two-component solution where the cruciform column was replaced by a chromed steel tube.12

The Danish Chair

The Human Figure in Islamic Art

An International Affair

Holy Men, Princes, and Commoners

Christian Holmsted Olesen

In the mid-20th century design became a cultural phenomenon that placed Denmark on the world map. Danish Design emerged in 1949 as a real brand, when American journalists started to write about Danish furniture in relation to a furniture exhibition by Snedkerlauget in Copenhagen. ‘Den runde stol’ made by Hans. J. Wegner was given the name ‘The Chair’. This was not only the beginning of a great export adventure but also a challenge for the Danish designers, who became world recognized for their obsession with creating the perfect chair. In a very unique way this book shows, not just in words but also with drawings and photos how Danish chairs are built on historical furniture types, which are then refined

into the infinite. The message and the explanation for the international success of Danish furniture is this; Danish furniture design is based on foreign culture and the best creations of former times. Christian Holmsted Olesen is Head of exhibitions and collections at Designmuseum, Denmark and is author of numerous books on design including Wegner: Just One Good Chair and Jacob Jensen.

Through seventy-five important works of Islamic art from the David Collection in Copenhagen, The Human Figure in Islamic Art focuses on an unusual and rarely elucidated subject in the world of Islamic art: human depictions. Depictions of man were considered objectionable from an orthodox Muslim point of view as only God can create life, and man should not try to emulate God’s work. The book describes how, despite this reluctance, portraying human figures has nonetheless always played an important role in Islamic art. The human figure is found on many kinds of utility ware, but the motif also has a long and rich tradition especially in miniature painting. The paintings in

the book largely feature princes, but also holy men and quite ordinary people in the form of illustrations for works of fiction, depictions of real-life events, and true portraits. This richly illustrated book covers the use of the human figure in many of the forms of Islamic art and describes some of the historical conditions and theological discussions behind it. Light is also shed on the mutual influence of Islamic and European art. Kjeld von Folsach is Director of the David Collection, Copenhagen, Denmark, where Joachim Meyer is Curator.

The Flower Painter J.L. Jensen

Under Indian Skies

Between Art in Nature and the Golden Age

Johan Laurentz Jensen (1800–1856) is the only fully fledged still-life painter in the Nordics. His beautiful flower and fruit paintings and his rarer kitchen and game still lives have consistently found an appreciative audience, both in Denmark and abroad. As the flower painter par excellence of the Romantic Golden Age, J.L. Jensen brought the international style of flower painting to Denmark, transplanting it here in his own style. He took porcelain painting to new artistic levels in porcelain services commissioned by the Danish royal family, for whom he also – as his crowning achievement – decorated royal palace interiors with

unsurpassed still lives of nature on a grand scale. In recent decades, J.L. Jensen’s art has begun to attract increasing international interest, but has remained fairly neglected in art history literature. That shortcoming is now finally remedied with this in-depth scholarly and richly illustrated documentation of J.L. Jensen’s life and flourishing work. Marie-Louise Berner was a research librarian from 1977 to 1999 at the Danish National Art Library, and is the author of Bertel Thorvaldsen. Mette Thelle is former Curator of Esbjerg Art Musem, Randers Art Museum and Funen Art Museum.

At the beginning of the 1850s, photography had gained acceptance in Colonial India. With its magnificent architecture, exotic landscapes and many different cultures, India could offer fantastic photographic scenes. In this splendid photobook, which is also the catalogue for an exhibition at The David Collection in Copenhagen, the author has collected photos by English and some Indian photographers. These images represent India’s architecture in all its glory – outstanding palaces and monuments, including the Taj Mahal – as well as portraits of princes, maharajas, ministers and warriors in all their splendour. There are also photos of typical

Indian craftsmen – stone- and woodcarvers, carpenters and colourists – as well as photos of elephants, people bathing in the Ganges, people harvesting hay and working in gardens, acrobats, snake charmers, dancers, musicians and religious processions. The photos are accompanied by descriptive captions from John Falconer, who has also written two essays on the history of photography in India and early photographic processes respectively. John Falconer is former Lead Curator of Prints, Drawings and Photographs in the British Library. His main specialism is 19thcentury photography in Asia, on which he has written extensively.

Gorgeous paper constructions expand on Hermès’ scarf designs in this luxury pop-up book

Bernard Duisit and Stéphane Foenkinos

Hermès Pop Up Every year, the iconic luxury brand Hermès chooses a new theme to celebrate its creative direction for the upcoming year. This practice began in 1987, marking the brand’s 150th anniversary, and has since become a beloved tradition – a way to combine the house’s proud, storied heritage with its creative vision for the future. This year’s theme is ‘Let’s Play’, and Hermès is celebrating in style with this new, deluxe pop-up book. Featuring a selection of fourteen of the house’s iconic square scarf designs, both old and more recent, this book brings the designs alive with exhilarating ingenuity. Delicate paper constructions bring out the depth and volume within the scarf designs; zebras rear up, delicately arching trees grow from the page and painterly strokes detach themselves from the paper surface. This is the Hermès carré as you’ve never seen it before.

For Hermès, a brand associated with the highest quality luxury materials and design, ‘play is movement, freedom, imagination, fantasy, seduction, lightness.’ Impeccably produced, Hermès Pop Up gives readers the chance to play around in the brand’s archives. Bernard Duisit is one of France’s finest pop-up book creators. He has worked on the pop-up adaptation of Saint-Exupéry’s masterpiece, Le Petit Prince. His extensive publications with Hélium include Le Lutin Bleu and Le Cube Rouge, with the illustrator Janik Coat. Stéphane Foenkinos is a renowned casting director and screenwriter for cinema and television. He is also a stage director. Foenkinos has also worked on Maison Hermès events over the past few years.

Edited by Éric de Chassey Photographs by Géraldine Lay Preface by Robert McLiam Wilson

Ellsworth Kelly Line Shape Colour / Ligne Forme Couleur Ellsworth Kelly (1923–2015) is internationally renowned as one of the major artists of the 20th and early-21st centuries. He is considered to have created a bridge between the great European modernists and the American avant-gardes. His partner, photographer Jack Shear, recently donated fifty-four of the artists’ prints and his sole book to the French National Art History Institute library. This exceptional donation is here revealed for the first time along with a selection of Ellsworth Kelly’s works – painting, drawings, collages and prints – including a number of previously unexhibited restricted-access works from private collections. The collection shows how throughout

Géraldine Lay: North End his career, Kelly experimented with the possibilities that printed images offer, from his first lithography produced in Paris in 1949 to his monumental works on paper in the 2000s. It reveals unknown aspects of the artist’s work, especially a series of abstract colour lithographs and his linear representation of planets produced in the mid-1960s. It also includes his series of variations from 1988 where he uses his own face or the faces of friends as a motif. Éric de Buretel de Chassey is an historian of French art, art critic, and professor of contemporary art history at François Rabelais University in Tours, France.

Faithful to her precise, detailed method and ever attentive to the potential for surprise and chance in any setting, Géraldine Lay mentally apprehends her territories before photographing them. She immerses herself in a setting, sensing the light and atmosphere, an approach that brings intimacy to the heart of anonymity. Each of her ‘photograms’ captures and holds the delicately ephemeral. In doing so, Lay has created an aesthetic unique to the craft, an aesthetic that imbues all of her work. As we traverse suburban streets and squares, lives are captured in the mystery of their daily existence. As the Irish writer, Robert McLiam Wilson writes, ‘People walk and wait. They talk, drink coffee. They cross streets. They work.

They move about. Citizens busy with citizen things. Like all citizens everywhere, they are multiple, varied, various. Men, women, children. They are also British. Incredibly British. They couldn’t come from anywhere else.’ In an age of mundane universality, Géraldine Lay’s photography reaffirms both the permanence of unusual individualities and the resistance of collective identities. Born in 1972, Géraldine Lay graduated from the ENSP in 1997. She has been represented by Le Réverbère Gallery in Lyon since 2005. Born in Belfast in 1964, Robert McLiam Wilson has written three novels: Ripley Bogle, Manfred’s Pain and Eureka Street.

An exploration of the ways in which designers are striving to transform our relationship with the natural world

Caitlin Condell, Andrea Lipps, Matilda McQuaid, Gène Bertrand and Hans Gubbels

Nature Collaborations in Design Designers today are striving to transform our relationship with the natural world. While the modern industrial age gave way to designs that vastly improved human enterprise through technology, there were unintended and destructive consequences for the environment. Designers are aligning with biologists, engineers, agriculturists, environmentalists and many other disciplines to design a more harmonious and regenerative future. Based on these new partnerships, designers are asking different questions and anticipating future challenges, which not only change the design process, but also what design means. Nature: Collaborations in Design – itself a collaboration between Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum, New York City and Cube design museum in Kerkrade, Netherlands – includes over sixty-five international projects from the fields of architecture, product design, landscape design, fashion, interactive and communication design, and material research. More than 300 compelling 56

and exquisite photographs, illustrations and content from data visualizations illustrate seven essays, which explain and explore designers’ strategies around understanding, simulating, salvaging, facilitating, augmenting, remediating and nurturing nature. Four conversations between scientists and designers delve into topics related to synthetic biology, scientific versus design lexicon, and recent shifts in the meaning of nature with a glossary illuminating scientific, technological and theoretical concepts and processes invoked by the designers. Caitlin Condell is the Associate Curator and Head of Drawings, Prints & Graphic Design at Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum. Andrea Lipps is Assistant Curator of Contemporary Design at Cooper Hewitt. Matilda McQuaid is Deputy Director of Curatorial and Head of Textiles at Cooper Hewitt. Gène Bertrand is the Program and Development Director of Museumplein Limburg. Hans Gubbels is the Director of Museumplein Limburg.

Soviet Asia Soviet Modernist Architecture in Central Asia

Soviet Asia explores the Soviet modernist architecture of Central Asia. Italian photographers Roberto Conte and Stefano Perego crossed the former Soviet republics of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, documenting buildings constructed from the 1950s until the fall of the USSR. The resulting images showcase the majestic, largely unknown, modernist buildings of the region. Influenced by Persian and Islamic architecture, pattern and mosaic motifs articulated a connection with Central Asia. Grey concrete slabs were juxtaposed with colourful tiling and rectilinear shapes broken by ornate curved forms: the brutal designs normally associated with Soviet-era architecture were reconstructed with Eastern characteristics. Many of the buildings shown in Soviet Asia are recorded here for the first time, making this book an important

document, as despite the recent revival of interest in Brutalist and Modernist architecture, a number of them remain under threat of demolition. The publication includes two essays, one by Alessandro De Magistris, a professor at the University of Milan, and the other by Marco Buttino, a professor at the University of Turin. Roberto Conte specializes in documenting 20th-century buildings, ranging from avant-garde and nationalist structures to post-war modernism, brutalism and contemporary architecture. Stefano Perego began photographing the industrial ruins of Milan in 2006 and has since documented hundreds of abandoned sites across Europe. Damon Murray and Stephen Sorrell have been publishing books on Soviet culture since 2004, from the Russian Criminal Tattoo Encyclopaedia to Soviet Bus Stops.

authentic designs reproduced here have been taken from original cards collected over the last ten years by the authors. A standard Russian deck contains only thirty-six cards. This pack has been adapted to make a complete standard Western deck of fifty-two cards. Damon Murray and Stephen Sorrell have been publishing books on Soviet culture since 2004. Alongside the Russian Criminal Tattoo Archive they have a growing collection of Soviet ephemera.

Style and Epoch by Moisei Ginzburg, first published in 1924, was the architect’s key work; it became the philosophical basis for the Constructivist group of architects. Ginzburg defined the new style in architecture that signified a break from traditional styles. After two industrial revolutions, architects were faced with new challenges by society. The response was an innovative approach to architecture that put people – their needs and functions – at its centre. The author’s understanding of global economic and cultural processes is evident in his description of the development of a style that came to define the nature of architecture in the twentieth century, which today we call modernism. The significance of this book in terms

of an understanding of culture, the avant-garde and the subsequent development of modernist architecture is hard to overestimate. Moisei Ginzburg was an architect, theorist, teacher and a leader of the Constructivist group in Soviet avant-garde architecture. His magnum opus, Style and Epoch, asserted that the revolution had engendered a new constructive phase of architectural development; it was essentially a manifesto of Constructivism as the architectural style of the new Soviet era. Its re-publication coincides with the completion of a project to restore Ginzburg’s famous Narkomfin building in Moscow, led by the architect’s grandson Alexei Ginzburg.

Tokyo-Yokosuka 1976–1983 ‘I first arrived in Tokyo in 1976, intending to stay a day or two on my way to SE Asia. I checked my luggage at the airport, took the train into the city and got off at the bright lights of Shinjuku. I wandered the streets all night and by morning decided I was going to stay. The photographs in Tokyo-Yokosuka 1976–1983 are about the Tokyo I was living in at the time. It would be some years later before I started making a living as a magazine photographer and many years after that before I started to consider this early,

In Guns We Trust mostly unpublished, work from Japan to be significant. These photographs are the result of that decision by a twenty-year-old photographer, and the momentum from that first impression turned me loose in a city I never tire of photographing, both during the years I lived there and on subsequent visit’ Greg Girard Christopher Phillips was a curator at the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York from 2000 to 2016.

Deep in the heart of America, the recreational use of militarygrade weapons has become a cherished pastime for many aficionados. Shooting ranges host events each year attracting thousands of participants who utilize machine guns, cannons, bombs and even tanks for recreation. Their targets include zombie pictures, barrels, mannequins, scrap cars and explosive charges that go off when hit. Participants see this activity both as a sport and as a way of life, connected to the American ideals of freedom and self-reliance. Jean-François Bouchard’s photographs show this reality from a new perspective by documenting the left-over relics from this pastime. Many photographers have taken an interest in American gun culture, but Bouchard’s point of view brings to light the

new extremes of military-grade weapon use, and adopts a cinematic form that transforms reality into a surreal and eerie parallel world. Shot from the sky or at night, the photos become eerily beautiful. Bullet-ridden shipping containers glowing in the night, decimated vegetation and exploding or burning scrap cars show the after-effects of this fringe group’s passion for heavy weaponry. Douglas Coupland is a Canadian novelist and artist, perhaps best known for his book Generation X. Jean-François Bouchard travels the world seeking out lesser-known communities who share unusual and uncommon passions.

A Matter of Light

Nicola Tanzini

Nine Photographers in the Vatican Museum

Tokyo. Tzukiji Tsukiji, the largest fish market in the world, has been based in central Tokyo since 1935. Considered a sacred place by Japanese restaurateurs, it has seen its fame grow, becoming one of Japan’s most visited tourist attractions. But now its identity is at risk: it is likely to move to make way for redevelopment in anticipation of the 2020 Olympics. In this book, Nicola Tanzini dwells on a lesser-known aspect of Tsukiji: the end of the working day, late in the morning. He turns his attention to the internal market (jonai shijo), famous for the tuna auctions, which represents the soul of the place whose key players are the wholesalers,

taken in the moments that precede the closure of the market. Everything finally slows down, the frenetic atmosphere of a moment before ceases; thousands of ordinary customers, professionals, curious and tourists, now appear suspended and marked by a state of physical and mental relaxation. Nicola Tanzini is the founder of Street Diaries, a constantly evolving travelling project on street photography. Tokyo. Tsukiji is his first book.

A Matter of Light brings together nine masters of international photography to interpret the precious uniqueness of the Vatican Museums for the first photographic collection within the Contemporary Art Collection of the Vatican Museums. This is the first time that a Museum has commissioned a new photographic collection inseparably linked to the museum itself. The photographers chosen to work within the Vatican Museums are Bill Armstrong, Peter Bialobrzeski, Antonio Biasiucci, Alain Fleischer, Francesco Jodice, Mimmo Jodice, Rinko Kawauchi, Martin Parr and Massimo Siragusa. Each one of them has worked in distinct moments and on different aspects of this multiple museum, producing

nine autonomous works that document and interpret the interior and architectural space of the halls, the flow of visitors and the memories that daily animate the people and spaces, the works on display and those conserved in the deposits, signs of wear and tear, and bodily traces. David Campany is an art historian, with a particular focus on photography. Giovanni Careri teaches photography throughout Europe. Micol Forti has supervised the Contemporary Art Collection of the Vatican Museums since 2000. Johanne Lamoureux is Professor of Contemporary Art at the University of Montreal. Alessandra Mauro is artistic director of the Fondazione Forma for Photography in Milan.

Helene Schmitz

Thinking Like a Mountain Published to coincide with the exhibition showing exclusively in Sydney, this major retrospective marks the photographer’s final project before his death. Rachel Kent is Chief Curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Australia.

Helene Schmitz’s photographs in Thinking Like a Mountain aim to shed light on the relationship between ownership and exploitation of natural resources in the Nordic countries, a part of the world not usually associated with the term ‘colonialism’. Schmitz contends that the colonial project never came to an end – it only changed appearance. Globalization and technologies have instead allowed for a shift in the source of neo-colonialist projects, from nation-states to multinational corporations. She has photographed landscapes in Sweden and Iceland that represent a fervent neo-colonialism where the notion of a wild landscape, untouched by humans, has ceased to exist. By addressing this through her

photography, she has sought to question and renew the image of landscapes – thus allowing them to be viewed as testimonies of the human being’s relationship with nature concurrent with the global, highly industrialized transformation of landscapes. Artificial landscapes with geothermal powerplants, manmade mountains and brand new lakes – all depicted through a large format camera, a slow and ceremonious work process which renders photographs with high detail and sharpness. Helene Schmitz has had numerous solo shows in Sweden and internationally. She has also produced several award-winning books.

Chess on Earth A game of day and night

Chess on Earth is all about teaching chess in a fun, approachable way. In order to impress on children the basics of the game, this book represents the pieces on a monumental scale. The pieces come to life as elements of the earth, such as waterfalls, rivers or mountains. Each character has its own personality which defines the way they move about the board. Day and night represent white and black pieces, and the movement of the pieces becomes the changes in the landscape. Chess on Earth can be read as a traditional story book, or played using the board and pieces included.

Daniel Weil is a world renowned designer with an extensive career working on a broad range of projects. He has had a lifelong relationship with chess, having enjoyed the game since childhood, when he used to carve chess pieces. He went on to design a chess set as a part of his book, Light Box published by the Architectural Association in 1985 while he was unit master. In 2013, he designed and art directed the World Chess Candidates Tournament, and his new World Chess set became the official set of the World Chess organisation – FIDE. Daniel Weil’s works are the permanent collections of The Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
