Art David Hockney: Normandy Portraits

40 illustrations 27 x 21 cm 48pp HB ISBN 978 1 855 145870 National Portrait Gallery February GBP 18.95

A compact album presentation of Hockney’s newest explorations in portraiture.

Art

David Hockney: Normandy Portraits accompanies a major exhibition on David Hockney at the National Portrait Gallery, London. It reveals new portraits painted in Hockney’s Normandy Studio between 2020 and 2022. David Hockney: Normandy Portraits illustrates around 40 acrylic on canvas works painted by Hockney at his Normandy studio – depicting his friends and visitors, including his partner JP, pop-star sensation Harry Styles, and the artist himself. This image-led book product will showcase a series of some previously unseen portraits, uninterrupted by text, to allow readers to engage directly with the artworks. These works highlight the ongoing importance of portraiture within the artist’s practice and demonstrate his sentiment that ‘drawings and paintings … are a lot better than photographs to give you a sense of the person’.

Hockney returned to painting after an intensive period spent depicting the Normandy landscape using an iPad. The portraits were painted quickly and directly onto the canvas without under drawing. As Hockney has said ‘to do a portrait slowly is a bit of a contradiction’.

Shiro Tsujimura Foreword by Axel Vervoordt Text by Hiroshi Sugimoto, Alexandra Munroe, and Shiro Tsujimura

This monograph on the life and work of iconoclastic Japanese artist Shiro Tsujimura demonstrates how, in his signature self-taught manner, he has reinvented the classic ceramic art form. Shiro Tsujimura is a vanguard contemporary ceramic artist. While his creations and techniques are deeply rooted in traditional Japanese and Korean styles, his independent streak defines his practice with a sense of freedom, playfulness, and self-confidence that results in decidedly unique works. This monograph takes readers inside his studio and home to discover his artistic practice and lifestyle. Tsujimura has held solo exhibitions around the world and his works have been acquired from Japan to Berlin to New York by the world’s most prestigious museums, including the Met and The British Museum.

Hiroshi Sugimoto: Time Machine is a comprehensive survey of work produced over the past five decades, featuring selections from all of Sugimoto’s major photographic series, as well as lesser-known works that illuminate his innovative, conceptually-driven approach to making pictures.

Tells the fascinating story of the journey taken by the Bauhaus – both the concept behind the school and some of the individuals who represented it.

Bauhaus Goes West Modern art and design in Britain and America Alan Powers

Bauhaus Goes West is a story of cultural exchange, not only between the Bauhaus émigrés and the countries to which they moved, but also in the other direction, focusing in particular on Britain. Most significantly, perhaps, it considers in detail the presence in the UK during the 1930s of three of the school’s most important figures – Gropius, Marcel Breuer and László MoholyNagy – using meticulous research to tell for the first time the stories of their British experiences in parallel. 80 colour; 40 B/W illustrations 19.8 x 12.9 cm 312pp PB ISBN 978 0 500 295861 Thames and Hudson Ltd February GBP 12.99

The story of modern British art history told through the stories of its women. Consider for a moment the history of modern art in Britain; you may struggle to land on a narrative that features very many women. In the decades after women won the vote in Britain, the fortunes of women artists were shaped by war, domesticity, continued oppressions and spirited resistance. Some succeeded in forging creative careers; others were thwarted by the odds stacked against them. Weaving devastating individual stories with playful critique, British Women Artists reveals this hidden history.

British Women Artists From Suffrage to the Sixties

Scheijen’s vivid, dynamic style, authoritative command of his source material and extensive original research provides exceptional insight into the lives of these avantgardists, whose art left a lasting legacy that transformed modern art.

Derek Jarman’s House

Art

This is a companion and follow-up to Derek Jarman’s Garden, 28 years in print and still arguably Jarman’s most popular book. While the garden of Prospect Cottage in Dungeness is much-visited and widely featured, the house has long remained closed to visitors. We are now finally permitted to open the door onto a previously undisturbed, unseen world, itself an artistic testament. This was the first time a photographer had so extensively documented the cottage, an artwork in its own right, which encapsulates Jarman’s vision of the world. 180 colour illustrations 24 x 17.2 cm 192pp HB ISBN 978 0 500 027233 Thames and Hudson Ltd March GBP 25

‘Welcome to the past, present and future. I stand side-by-side with my great-grandfather, who I never met – two painters from the centre of this country, standing up and making our voices heard. I believe in the power of art, the power of the paintbrush. I know that art can change lives. It changed mine and I hope that art can change the world too.’

Joana Vasconcelos: Material World Enrique Juncosa and Crispin Sartwell

Art

Joana Vasconcelos has become one the most respected and soughtafter artists of the 21st century. Her forte is using non-traditional materials, and particularly textiles, to create monumental and expansive works that intrigue, inspire and entertain the viewer. This book focuses on her extraordinary works in textiles, and highlights in particular her ‘Valkyries’ series, vibrant patchwork extravaganzas that weave together knitting and crochet with silk, velvets, recycled clothes and industrially produced textiles embellished with Portuguese tassels, crystals and beads. Essays by Enrique Juncosa and Crispin Sartwell offer thoughtful and in-depth overviews of her work and its development over the past fourteen years. 294 illustrations 32 x 29 cm 336pp HB ISBN 978 0 993 322006 Albion Barn March GBP 70

The paintings of Ken Grimes are strikingly honest, deceptively simple, and decidedly interstellar. Over several decades, Grimes has developed his singular style—using text, numbers, outer space iconography, and geometric shapes painted primarily in stark black and white—to prompt his audience to consider the possibilities and implications of alien contact with earth. Showcasing art from Grimes’s long career, this book catalogs the endless variations on a theme produced by an absolutely unique painter during a lifetime devoted to the mysteries of extraterrestrial life.

With an archive of source material amassed and processed over time, Lowman creates slippery, layered images that transform visual referents found in the news, media, and art history.

Yves Clerc Text by André Comte-Sponville

Art

”It has become increasingly clear to me that the pleasure of painting lies in the subtle interplay between what the picture shows and what is says” –Yves Clerc Yves Clerc began his career in drawing and photography, before turning to painting and abstraction, followed by figuration. He offers us a poetic vision of the world, where shimmering colors rub shoulders with flat blacks. Transparency and its staging are his favorite themes. Clerc loves texture and plays with boundaries: he paints long, crumpled draperies that he creates with a juxtaposition of layers of paint, but also of techniques – oil on canvas, acrylic, drawing, painting on photo. 120 colour illustrations 30 x 30 cm 168pp HB ISBN 978 2 370 742094 Editions Skira Paris February GBP 36

The first monograph in English on a major Polish painter. Józef Halas (1927-2015) is one of the major Polish painters of his generation. Active in Wroclaw from 1949 until his death, first as a student and then as an artist and teacher, he left a unique body of work that, like many of those built largely during the Cold War, remained long unrecognized in Western Europe and North America. There is no doubt that Józef Halas must now be counted as one of the important players in this global history.

Chess Knightmares, the cycle of nearly four dozen frequently savage and sometimes downright salacious drawings that Alexander Calder dedicated to the game in 1944. They unleash an otherwise regulated game into frenzied conflicts of immorality, executions and sexual mishaps, Calder’s King, Queen, Knights, Bishops, Rooks, and Pawns don’t give a damn about the rules. They’ve kicked off all constraints. They move any way they like. Marcel Duchamp, who was passionate about the game, added alternate titles to many of Calder drawings.

On the 50th anniversary of Picasso’s (1881–1973) death, a book devoted to the progressive proofs by the leading Spanish master. While there has been considerable interest in Pablo Picasso’s late work over the past several decades, and some of that interest directed at the artist’s work in the linoleum print medium, there remains much to discover regarding this aspect of his prodigious printmaking activities, and specifically on the role played by the progressive proof. There has been an uptick in the acquisition of these sets of proofs by museums and private collectors over the past twenty years but exhibitions and published accounts have lagged behind.

Unknown to many, Niko Pirosmani is revered as a legend in his native Georgia. Conveying a sense of poignant empathy, his portraits, animal paintings, landscapes and scenes from everyday life painted around 1900 in a flourishing Tbilisi draw on medieval iconography and testify to a deeply felt sense of belonging. This catalogue demonstrates Pirosmani’s qualities in numerous illustrations, showing how his rapid brushstrokes on black oilcloth give the sparsely applied colors a glow as if coming from a dark depth. Pirosmani was a master of concentration-and a storyteller.

Demonstrating a wide array of influences - from Chinese calligraphy to Expressionism - Liu Wei’s work deals with universal themes of humanity. With a career spanning over thirty years, he has proved a master of rendering human flesh and combining figuration with text and abstraction. Liu Wei’s deft grasp of technique and acute awareness of color and composition is evident in his lush landscapes, in which flora and fauna often escape the confines of the canvas and spill out onto the Rococo-style frames. Featuring texts by distinguished specialists in contemporary Chinese art, this is the first major English-language monograph of his work.

This catalogue focuses on the early masterpieces and series created between 1919 and 1925: Under the overarching theme of emigration and uprooting, the contributions reveal the traces of Soutine’s Jewish origins in his work, illuminate the significance of his motifs from the fringes of society as well as of blood and animal carcasses as metaphors; and show the influences of Soutine’s art up to the present day.

Among the foremost contemporary Iranian artists and a pioneer of modern sculpture. Parviz Tanavoli – who has been widely recognised as the only Iranian artist to fully capture the duality and interplay of Iran’s pre-Islam and Islamic cultural identities – created a visual symbology through his sculptural work that would have a lasting impact on modernism in Iran. The book examines the layering of both sacred and secular histories in Parviz Tanavoli’s work – an integration that is crucial to understanding the development of modern sculpture in Iran.

The Secessions artist groups at the dawn of modernism in a splendid new volume.

Secessions Klimt, Stuck, Liebermann Ralph Gleis and Ursula Storch

At the end of the 19th century the term “Secession” stood for the artistic beginnings of modernism. Avant-garde artists showed their new creative works in the exhibitions of the Secession. In doing so, they introduced innovative art movements to the public and helped Impressionism and Symbolism, for example, to achieve a breakthrough in the German-speaking region. The most important Secessions in the German region are associated to this day with the figures who helped to shape them: Franz von Stuck, Gustav Klimt and Max Liebermann. 265 colour illustrations 29 x 24.5 cm 328pp HB ISBN 978 3 777 441924 Hirmer January GBP 45

Accompanying an extensive museum exhibition that features the visionary, intermedial works of Otto Piene (1928-2014), this catalogue presents new scholarship on the development of his imaginative approaches to interlace art, science, and nature and uncover strategies of coping in an increasingly uncertain world.

Frank Lloyd Wright’s proposal for Broadacre City (1929–35) put forth a remarkable claim—that the metropolis was obsolete. In its place, Broadacre was to be a “Usonian” synthesis, an unprecedented landscape unsullied by convention or history, consisting simply of “architecture and acreage”. This latest volume in the MoMA One on One series focuses on Frank Lloyd Wright’s Broadacre City Project (1934–1935).

Earth, Sky & Water Houses in the Nordic Style Mette Lange Afterword by Kenneth Frampton

Instantly calming houses in remote Scandinavian locations that will make you want to escape into nature. In a world of starchitects competing to design ever taller glass and steel megaliths, there are still some architects designing with natural materials at a human scale, for comfort, longevity and visual delight. Mette Lange is one such architect, creating beautiful, unpretentious homes in spectacular scenery that offer visual inspiration for homebuilders and dreamers alike. Earth, Sky and Water presents 15 houses designed by Mette with first-person project texts describing Mette’s unique practice of camping on-site at the start of each design process, and detailing the thinking behind each house’s main features. As well as a visual feast of deceptively simple Scandinavian summerhouses that will leave the reader yearning for one of their own, the book offers a blueprint for aspiring architects on how to run their own sustainable studio.

Architectural patronage was crucial for the thinking of Aby Warburg and his circle. In Hamburg the purpose-designed Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg, completed in 1926, organized Warburg’s remarkable library. This pattern of seminal architectural commissioning continued, culminating in the construction of the library’s present home at Woburn Square, Bloomsbury in 1958. The book follows this history and shows how the Warburg scholars projected a connection between their own physical occupancy of architectural space and their shared ideas about intellectual order, cultural survival, and memory. 45 illustrations 28 x 21 cm 112pp HB ISBN 978 3 775 755207 Hatje Cantz Verlag March GBP 28

Photography

Traces a key turning point in the history of photography: the young Joel Meyerowitz’s early experiments in colour photography. Just how, when and why US fine-art photographers switched from black-andwhite image-making, which was prized within the gallery system, to colour photography, once seen as the preserve of the holiday snapper, has been the cause of much debate. In this book, Meyerowitz tells the story of his early days as a photographer when he was told that serious photographers took black & white pictures. ‘But why?’ he asked, ‘when the world is in colour?’ An early advocate of colour photography, Joel Meyerowitz has impacted and influenced generations of artists. For fifty-eight years, the master photographer has documented the US’s ever-changing social landscape.

Saul Leiter

A new edition of this collection of Saul Leiter’s distinctive work, featuring twelve new photographs.

Max Kozloff Second edition

Saul Leiter was one of those photographers who sought neither fame nor commercial success, despite his talent for imagemaking. Born in Pittsburgh, he spent his entire adult life in New York City’s East Village, in an intensely creative environment where ideas from Europe and America came together and intermingled. His mastery of colour is displayed in unconventional cityscapes in which reflections, transparency, complex framing and mirroring effects are married to a very personal printing style, creating a unique kind of urban view.

In images that range from celebrity portraits to bird’s-eye views from her apartment window, from children at play to the experiences of a lone American tourist in Italy, Orkin’s photography always retains a cinematic sense of the passage of time and allows the humanity and charisma of her subjects to shine through.
