of Frank Lloyd Wright.
Frank Lloyd Wright presents a stunning overview
of the work of this towering American genius,
encompassing the entirety of Wright’s long and
extraordinarily prolific career. From his earliest
work, such as the Home and Studio in Oak Park,
IL, of 1889, to the wonderfully evocative textile
block houses of Los Angeles of the mid-1920s, to
such seminal masterpieces as Fallingwater, of
1935, in the Pennsylvania wilderness, and the
Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, of 1956, in
New York, the book offers an extraordinarily abundant trove of architectural riches. Featuring more
than a hundred discrete works, from the well
known to the obscure, expertly discussed in the text
of highly respected Wright scholar Kathryn Smith,
Frank Lloyd Wright weaves a gorgeous tapestry that
will engage the mind and delight the eye.
Alan Weintraub is the photographer for Rizzoli’s

BRUCE BROOKS PFEIFFER
IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT FOUNDATION
Wright thrived on adversity and rose above it
to produce some of his most important works
during one of the most difficult and trying
periods in his life.
Frank Lloyd Wright’s wife, Olgivanna, is famously
quoted as saying that “My husband seemed to
thrive on hardships.” From the years 1920 to 1932
Wright’s fortunes were at a low ebb; he was plagued
by financial, personal, and professional setbacks,
but saw the time as one of challenges instead of one
of defeat. Unable to find patrons, his imagination led
to visionary, often splendid, architectural conceptions that laid the groundwork for the revolutionary
architecture he would build in the decades to follow.
During this period he designed almost fifty projects,
of which only a few were realized, but those few are
seen today as among his most important creations.
They include the majestic Imperial Hotel in Tokyo,
four exquisite textured concrete block houses in
Los Angeles, renovations and additions to his
beloved home, Taliesin, in Wisconsin, the Octillo
Desert Camp in Chandler, Arizona, and his work as
design consultant for the lavish Arizona Biltmore
Hotel and Cottages in the desert in Phoenix. Rare
and unseen photos as well as little-known drawings
from this period are on lavish display in this important work on the master architect.
Author Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer is a trustee of the
Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation in Scottsdale,
Arizona, and, as director of the archives there, is
the curator of its 300,000 correspondence documents and 22,000 drawings, some of which are
shown here for the first time. He has been a
member of the Taliesin Fellowship for over fortyfour years, and is the author and/or editor of over
forty books on Frank Lloyd Wright.

Rooms to Inspire:
Country
THE INFINITE POSSIBILITIES
OF AMERICAN HOUSE DESIGN
ANNIE KELLY
PHOTOGRAPHY BY TIM STREET-PORTER
A follow-up to the successful Rooms to Inspire,
this inspirational guide focuses on trendsetters’
fresh points of view to country living.
Country living evokes bucolic landscapes and
picturesque villages—rolling Connecticut countryside, verdant farmland, the sun-drenched hills of
Malibu—and the architecture that echoes these
idyllic settings. These houses, ranging from family
estates to weekend retreats, are the personal homes of
decorators and tastemakers, including Jonathan
Adler, Martyn Lawrence-Bullard, and Steven
Gambrel. The properties exemplify varied design
perspectives and provide fresh ideas about how
country living is ideal for creative expression.
This inspiring medley ranges from Tony Duquette’s
exotic pavilion-style California home to a charming
New York Victorian, a modernist Palm Springs
desert getaway by Neutra, a nineteenth-century
Gothic cottage on Shelter Island, and an eighteenthcentury Connecticut house. Along with design
ideas for interiors, the book also covers the garden
and pool areas. Since outdoor entertaining is an
integral part of country living, a section devoted to
tabletop display is included. These beautifully
photographed inspirations encourage the reader to
explore the design opportunities in the country
guided by the best interior designers.
Decorator and journalist Annie Kelly has authored
many books, including Casa San Miguel, and writes a
book column for 1stdibs.com. She is also the editorin-chief of the New York Observer Home magazine.
Award-winning photographer Tim Street-Porter is
the author of numerous architecture and design
books, including L.A. Modern . He is also a frequent
contributor to many design magazines.

The Stephen
Sprouse Book
MAURICIO PADILHA AND ROGER PADILHA
FOREWORD BY TAMA JANOWITZ
The first monograph on the influential fashion
designer whose graffiti- and rock-inspired
clothing defined the 1980s.
Inventive, enigmatic, and supremely creative, Stephen
Sprouse made art and clothing that captured the mood
of the eighties. One of the first American designers to
mix graffiti and a punk aesthetic with fashion, Sprouse
manipulated conventional notions of style, and his
unique sensibility has inspired designers from John
Galliano to Raf Simmons to Marc Jacobs.
Sprouse’s career started in the late seventies, when,
after working for Halston, he migrated to a warehouse
on the Bowery and started making outfits for his
neighbor, Debbie Harry. The fashion world quickly
embraced his innovative, culturally relevant sensibility and downtown edge. But Sprouse’s inability to
compromise his artistic vision for the rigid fashion
business compromised his commercial success.
The Padilhas possess the largest private collection of
Sprouse’s work, and were given exclusive access to his
archives by his family for this project.They also obtained
never-before-published images from photographers
such as Steven Meisel, Bob Gruen, and Mert and
Marcus. The book features a foreword by the novelist
Tama Janowitz, one of Sprouse’s closest friends.

The release of this book coincides with a retrospective at Deitch Projects. The book will be available
with four different jackets, each featuring a different
Day-Glo color, an homage to Sprouse’s iconic
album cover for Debbie Harry’s Rockbird.
Mauricio Padilha and Roger Padilha run
MAO Public Relations, MAO SPACE, a series of
runway shows that coincide with New York Fashion
Week, and publish MAO MAG, a bi-annual fashion
magazine. Tama Janowitz is the author of seven
novels, including Slaves of New York.

Berlin
A PERFORMANCE BY LOU REED
DIRECTED BY JULIAN SCHNABEL
LOU REED AND JULIAN SCHNABEL
Lou Reed’s live performance in 2007 of his
legendary Berlin concept album, captured on film
by Julian Schnabel, represented both a personal
triumph in an astonishing career and a majestic
collaboration between two of the most profound
artists of our times.
Berlin is a concept album that represented a brave
departure from the familiar sounds and themes of
Lou Reed’s earlier solo work, a tragic tale about
heartbreak and addiction meant to be played live
as a rock opera, in the vein of The Who’s Tommy.
But its poor reception meant that plans for a live
performance were put on hold until 2007, when,
with a renewed confidence in the material, Reed
toured with a full orchestra and choir, giving some
of the most personal and powerful performances
of his career.
The tour was filmed by legendary artist Julian
Schnabel, a longtime friend of Reed’s who also
designed the spare and beautiful set, and whose
daughter Lola contributed moving images projected
behind the stage. This immeasurably powerful book
draws on stills from Schnabel’s film, photographs of
the set design, printed lyrics of Reed’s original verse,
and images from Schnabel’s projections to tell the
twin stories of Berlin as rock opera and as unique
collaboration between two geniuses of contemporary
art, music, words, and film. The book also includes a
rare conversation between Reed and Schnabel.
Lou Reed is a founding member of the Velvet Underground and an accomplished solo artist, poet, writer, and
photographer. He lives in New York. Julian Schnabel
is a celebrated artist and filmmaker whose work is in the
permanent collections of The Metropolitan Museum
and MoMA in New York, and whose film The Diving Bell
and the Butterfly was nominated for four Academy
Awards. He lives in New York.

THE ARCHITECTURE OF
KARIM RASHID
KANYE WEST
Are you ready to glow in the dark?
The only and official record of one of the most
highly anticipated tours of the year. Including a USB
drive of previously unreleased music, the book is
both a memento of the tour and an object conceived
by the artist himself—entirely collectible on its own.
Appearing alone on stage for almost the entirety of
the show with huge Star Wars-inspired spacescapes
behind him, West’s Glow in the Dark Tour is both
a musical and a visual odyssey of Kanye as a true
pioneer. This deluxe landscape volume promises to
be yet another creation of this multifaceted artist
and will include his original sketches and concepts;
3-D models and construction of the stage; concept
art for “J.A.N.E.”; costume designs (including his
Grace Jones-inspired outfits for opening act
Rihanna); and blog of his journey. The gatefolds
and special edition USB drive put this artist’s innovative and signature stamp on an already visually
radical piece.
Ten-time Grammy Award winner Kanye West began
his career producing hits for such major R&B
artists as Jay-Z and Janet Jackson before achieving
triple platinum success on his own. The son of a
Black Panther and former English professor, West is
known for his sociopolitical lyrics and for sampling
from a wide variety of genres. He attended the
American Academy of Art in Chicago and is steeped
in current trends in art, design, electronics, fashion,
and architecture.

INTRODUCTION BY ALESSANDRO MENDINI
The architecture and interior design work of one
of the world’s most prominent and imaginative
product designers.

innovative, forward-looking, and strikingly relevant.
From furniture to fashion to products for hip brands
like Umbra and Method, Karim’s colorful projects

and unusual materials to create objects and environments that are at the forefront of design innovation.
Karim is an equally prolific interior designer, with a
vast and diverse repertoire of installations and built
work, including luxury hotels (Athens’ Semiramis),
restaurants (Morimoto in Philadelphia; Nooch
noodle bars in Singapore and NYC), a subway
station in Naples, custom home interiors, and installations at sites around the world.
KarimSpace showcases forty projects in a dozen

how Karim applies his signature aesthetic to
different environments. The book will include an
essay and an overview of each project by Karim, as
well as images and a complete project index.

SUSANNA SALK
CASEY O’BRIEN BLONDES
PHOTOGRAPHY BY BÉATRICE AMAGAT
Lush and striking rooms from the most intimate,
exclusive, uniquely Parisian hotels—the perfect
gift for both the sophisticated traveler and the
interiors enthusiast.
From the author of French Country Hideaways
comes an enticing new insider’s entree to Paris.
Eschewing the larger hotels and chains, Casey
O’Brien Blondes has put together an impeccable
list of four-star escapes carefully selected for
their interior design, authenticity, panache, and
personalized service.
Grouped by theme—including literary, historic,
and boudoir—the hotels present an enticing range
of décor, from the timeless splendor of the Raphael,
with its incomparable view of the Arch de
Triomphe from its lush rooftop garden restaurant,
to the minimalist verve of Hotel le A, off the
Faubourg Saint-Honoré, where graphic black-andwhite décor harmonize with Gallic élan. Each is
unique, yet all share in common family or manager
ownership, fewer than 100 rooms, generous room
size, and very distinctive French style.
With lush color photography and in-depth
descriptions of each hotel, including a list of neighborhood restaurants, boutiques, gourmet treats,
curiosities, or walking tours, Parisian Hideaways
is a must for anyone longing to escape to or be
inspired by the City of Lights.
A stylistic tour of gorgeous country weekend
homes, where enjoyment of the space is the
ultimate in luxury and retreat.
Weekend Retreats is a celebration of the intimate
narratives of retreat and relaxation—from charming
coastal New England houses to restive woodland
retreats. Lifestyle meets design know-how and
inspiration in this thoughtful collection of design
influences and singular approaches to well-lived
style that will inspire all those wishing to style
their country homes.
Whether your idea of serenity abounds in rustic
antiques or a plethora of well-curated oil paintings
and designer throw pillows, the homes featured are
distinctively enjoyed and the histories of design decisions are unraveled in savvy detail. This collection
features not only beautifully styled rooms but also
playful gardenscapes where the owners entertain and
enjoy their retreats away from the inconveniences of
modern life. Every space is a playground for the
owners, and their tastes and whimsies are reflected in
their unique colors, textures, and designs.

The only autobiography by the legendary icon
of the cosmetics industry, tells her inspiring and
timeless story firsthand.
First published in 1985 and now back in print in a
beautifully designed edition, this is a book filled with
the inspirations, strategies, and the well-lived and
charming instincts that led Estée Lauder from a
childhood upbringing in Queens, New York, to the

the formation of companies that include Estée
Lauder, Aramis, Clinique, Prescriptives, Origins,
M-A-C, Le Mer, Aveda, Jo Malone, Coach, and a

business became an empire. Legendary clashes with
competitors are divulged, including stories of how
she outsmarted them with remarkable style, grace,
and determination. She describes how she learned
to connect with women, the iconoclastic marketing
breakthroughs, and the years of incredibly hard
work that led to domination of the cosmetic world.
She is renowned for conducting a life of drama, but
with color and elegance and always with a focus on
exquisite detail. In this book, she shared her secrets
of good business and good living.
Direct, disarming, Estée Lauder was a philanthropist
and social leader, receiving many honors including
the Legion of Honor. She was named by Harper’s
Bazaar as one of the 100 American Women of Accomplishment, voted one of the Top Ten Outstanding Women

The first volume in the bestselling One Hundred &
One series devoted to the United States, this book is
a unique photographic tour of the most charming
towns along the American littoral, from ancient New
England fishing towns and the wide strands of

life the special history of each place, from William
Randolph Hearst’s “castle” on California’s central
coast to Newport’s grand nineteenth-century
“cottages.” Every stretch of the U.S. coast is
included—Maine’s bracing fishing coves,
Louisiana bayous, and undiscovered gems like
California’s Eureka, a charming Victorian town just
beyond the “Lost Coast” in the state’s far north. An
appendix provides details about hotels, restaurants,
shops, and nearby points of interest for each town.

Since establishing his office in New York in 1985, Thad Hayes has become
one of the most sought-after young interior designers. As the twenty-two residences here show, he is noted for light-filled interiors characterized by calm
colors, quietude, and elegance. His interiors embrace the period and the
modern, significant objects and simple ones, furniture he finds and pieces he
designs. Hayes’s rooms resound in meditative understatement but are not
afraid of being daring. From a penthouse on Central Park, a Deco duplex on
Park Avenue, or a pied-à-terre at the Pierre Hotel to a Palm Beach retreat and
Hamptons hideaway, his designs are remarkable for their symbiotic sensitivity to the client and his own subtle, extraordinarily beautiful aesthetic.
Thad Hayes’s work has been frequently featured in House & Garden and Architectural Digest , where he was on the coveted “ AD 100” list and also named
one of the “Deans of Design.” Charles Gandee is a well-known arts and

A fresh, new kind of style book on renovating and
decorating design-savvy, family-friendly homes.
New York City–based couple Robert and Cortney

unique and hip homes for families for over ten years.
Describing their signature style as a sophisticated

they offer their realistic advice on how to create
original, warm interiors with ease.
One part practical guide, one part inspirational
volume on creating a look for the home, the book
pairs humorous anecdotes about the pitfalls and
pleasures of renovation with a treasure trove of
decorating tips: how to use both boutique and fleamarket finds; how to inject lots of personality into a
room affordably; how to decorate kids’ rooms so
they appeal to children and adults; how to easily
rehabilitate outdated furnishings; and many more.
In each of the ten projects featured—which include
a townhouse in New York City, a country house in
Massachusetts, and a beach house in Brazil—before
and after shots document the agony and ecstasy of
any renovation project, as well as revealing the
design duo’s vision and remarkable ability to see
through the most awful of spaces to the amazing
home that lies within.
Robert and Cortney Novogratz , native Southerners, came to New York City more than ten years
ago and soon after founded Sixx Design. Featured
in scores of American and European shelter magazines, their work includes residential and commercial projects throughout the world. Their next

The first comprehensive survey of the work of Mark Borthwick, one of the
most influential alternative fashion photographers of our time.
Mark Borthwick is among the generation of photographers who in the ’90s
broke through the conventions of fashion photography. Integrating elements
of architecture and design, he has developed a very personal and intuitive
style, and knows how to turn a static photo into a performance. His work is
about the movement of the model, and the serendipity of accidental clutter
is as important to his images as the garments.

Darren Aronofsky’s The Wrestler is an insightful behind-the-scenes meditation on the film’s provocative characters and the choices they make. Once a
hugely successful WWF wrestler, Randy the Ram now ekes out a living
performing for diehard wrestling fans from the 1980s in high school gyms
and community centers around New Jersey. But when he suffers a heart
attack, Randy’s doctor tells him he needs to lay off the steroids and stop
wrestling altogether. Forced out of show business, Randy begins to evaluate
the state of his life. But the pull of the spotlight is too strong and he attempts
once again to find his way back into the ring. Featuring actors Mickey
Rourke, Academy award–winning Marisa Tomei, and Evan Rachel Wood,
this book is an extension of Aronofsky’s filmic vision, and will contain film
stills, the original shooting script, still photos, original art, and observations
by its creators, cast, and crew.
π won the Director’s Award at the
1998 Sundance Film Festival, an Independent Spirit award and the Open
Palm. Aronofsky’s other films include Requiem for a Dream and The Fountain.
Robert Siegel was editor-in-chief of the satirical newspaper The Onion
from 1996 to 2003. He is now a full-time screenwriter.

INTERVIEW WITH DANIEL JOHNSTON
A lifetime of visual art from an unexpected genius.
Daniel Johnston only ever dreamt of two things: he
wanted to be a rock star and he wanted to be a famous
artist. Amazingly enough, he succeeded at both.
Today he is an acclaimed indie music star whose
charmingly twisted songs have been covered by the
likes of Beck, Yo La Tengo, and TV on The Radio.
His artwork appears in galleries throughout the world
and was featured in the 2006 Whitney Biennial.
Johnston’s pen and colored marker drawings
contain a range of characters, some benign or
heroic, and others quite disturbing. In his complex
world, good battles evil attended to by an assortment of playful characters. Johnston’s world is also
informed by his conservative Christian upbringing,
and filled with depictions of biblical vengeance and
salvation. Looking at his work, we are reminded of
Heironymous Bosch as much as DC Comics.
Daniel Johnston contains over 150 full color illustrations, many taken from the artist’s private archives
and never seen before. There is also commentary
and analysis by the Walker Art Center’s Philippe
Vergne, alt-rock luminary Jad Fair, and underground
comic legend, Harvey Pekar.

“I see him as an artist on the periphery of the art
world, but not an outsider artist . . . It’s impressive

Philippe Vergne, newly appointed director of the DIA
Art Foundation, was formerly chief curator and associate
director of the Walker Art Center and co-curated the 2006
Whitney Biennial, in which Johnston's work was
included. Jad Fair is an alt-rock elder statesman who
led the influential band, Half-Japanese. He is also a
respected visual artist in his own right. Harvey Pekar
is author of the influential underground comic book
series, American Splendor.

Tiny Houses
Ranch Houses
MIMI ZEIGER
THE CALIFORNIA DREAM
AND BEYOND
From modular to prefab, tiny dwellings follow an
intrinsically green philosophy of the reduction of
waste—space and otherwise.
In the spirit of treading a bit lighter on the planet, a
new trend in sustainable living architecture is what
is called “microgreen living”—literally the creation
of tiny homes where people challenge themselves to
live “greener” lives. This idea, which sprang from
eco-awareness and the reduction of carbon footprints, has led people to consider low-impact living
as a “greener” alternative to ordinary housing. Far
beyond solar panels and the use of sustainable
materials, homeowners have embraced the concept
and have implemented many creative and stylish
solutions for day-to-day living, such as a room that
doubles as a shower with one swift movement of
plexi-glass from a well-concealed pocket door. A
tiny house is an experiment of space but also a
challenge to simplify ways of life.
Tiny Houses brings together an international collection of over thirty prefab homes and living concepts
under 1,000 square feet—some are practical and
others are cheeky, ranging from treehouses and
compact dwellings to floating houses. The book
presents conceptual building plans, detailed illustrations, and vivid photographs of the homes,
architects, and proud enthusiasts who live in them.
How much space is unused and “wasted” in your
own home? This book will inspire the reader to
think about architecture and interior design in a
new and enlightened way.
Mimi Zeiger is the founder and editor of Loud
Paper Magazine, a cheeky architectural digest
geared toward young architects. Zeiger also writes
for Metropolis and Dwell magazines and teaches
courses at SCI-Arc on urban branding and architectural journalism.

DAVID WEINGARTEN AND LUCIA HOWARD
PHOTOGRAPHY BY JOE FLETCHER
Sparkling new photography showcases this
extraordinarily inviting house form, including
such exemplars as Will Rogers’s Ranch in Pacific
Palisades and the Sinatra House in Palm Springs.
With its archetypal open plan and reverence of
indoor-outdoor living, the Ranch house is at the
very heart of the California dream. When we
picture California Ranch houses—the low-slung,
informal dwellings that engulfed suburbs after
World War II—we are thinking of just one part of a
phenomenon that has its roots in early-nineteenthcentury ranchos, and which continues today in
houses that are startling and up-to-the-minute.
Examples of the type have been called ranchos,
ranchers, and California ramblers. They have been
styled Spanish, Japanese, and French; Monterey
and International; Vernacular, Minimalist, and
Modernist. From the 1797 Rancho Los Alamitos of
Long Beach to such contemporary homes as the
Miller Residence of Corte Madera, Ranch Houses
unveils the great variety and the very finest examples of this multifaceted form.
Including the work of such architectural luminaries
as Cliff May, Richard Neutra, John Lautner, and
Charles Moore, Ranch Houses is an essential
resource for architects, home owners, and all those
who aspire to the indoor/outdoor lifestyle that is
the California Dream.
Lucia Howard and David Weingarten are principals at Ace Architects in Oakland. Weingarten has
authored several design books, including Bay Area
Style. Joe Fletcher is an architectural photographer
who regularly contributes to Dwell, the San Francisco
Chronicle, and California Home + Design. He is the
photographer for Rizzoli’s Cliff May and the Modern

SOPHISTICATED
SOUTHERN STYLE
The ultimate survey of contemporary and
traditional domestic architecture and interior
design in the tropics is an inspiration to anyone
interested in the lush, exotic styles of paradise.
SUSAN SULLY
Seductive contemporary interiors from the
region’s most sophisticated cities breathe new
life into the timeless traditions of Southern style.
The Southern Cosmopolitan looks at the tradition of
style shaping the South’s architecture and interior
design. A selection of luxurious houses from
Charleston, Savannah, New Orleans, Atlanta,
Natchez, Georgetown, and Alexandria celebrates the
sophisticated side of southern style with a mix of
modern art, antiques, and exotic textiles. Featured in
tantalizing color photographs are select residences
decorated by leading southern tastemakers,
including Thomas Jayne, Amelia Handegan, Nancy
Braithewaite, and Hal Williamson.
An immaculately restored mansion in Natchez and a
collector’s treasure trove in Alexandria reveal the
South’s love affair with historic European and
American architecture, art, and antiques. A classic
re-do of a Colonial Revival home in Georgetown
and a modern Atlanta condominium decorated with
French antiques and contemporary art showcase
the southern blend of old and new. A Greek Revival
house filled with exotic textiles in Charleston and an
Italianate townhouse in Savannah display the
South’s fascination with foreign and exotic decorative objects. A perfect summary of southern taste for
those charmed by both the grandeur and intimate

LUCA INVERNIZZI TETTONI
This is the definitive survey of domestic living in
the tropics—from traditional forms to the latest in
contemporary design—with a particular emphasis
on Asia and Oceania. The authoritative selection
of lush images and the informative commentary by
a noted design writer set this title apart from others
on the subject.
Featuring over 500 photographs, this book depicts
the amazing richness of architectural and interior
design styles found throughout the tropics. Rustic
and luxurious, simple and ornate, historic and
contemporary—the tropics contain startling visual
and stylistic juxtapositions that all share an exotic
quality and somehow work together to create
harmonious, comfortable spaces for living. The
styles featured here range from traditional bamboo
stilt houses filled with simple charm to the most
opulently decorated grand homes.
One of the common denominators of all the tropical
styles featured is how they blend seamlessly with the
environment and attempt to create a harmonious
balance between human needs and nature. However
remote the location, all of the homes and interiors
showcased are designed to respond and adapt to
their natural settings.
This book is the ultimate visual resource for the
tropical lifestyle, and anyone who views these
images will be inspired to view their own surroundings with fresh eyes.

one of London’s most renowned dining (and
breakfast) destinations.
This book celebrates everything that makes breakfast (and its cousin, brunch) special from the
country that has raised it to the level of culinary
art. While often called the most important meal of
the day, here is proof that breakfast can also be the
most delicious: traditional as well as imaginative
ways to prepare eggs, delicious pastries and
breads, hearty porridges, meats and fish. Best of
all, included is the definitive guide to assembling a
hearty “full English breakfast”—perfect for entertaining or for a romantic breakfast for two.
Inspired by London’s iconic restaurant, The
Wolseley, the book evokes the unique atmosphere of
this beautifully restored Art Deco gem where breakfast has become an institution and a celebration. The
Wolseley is a cross between a Parisian brasserie and a
cozy Viennese café, attracting a large number of
Americans as well as London’s elite.
Whether simple fresh fruit or the full English breakfast everyone recalls from their college year abroad,
these pages contain everything there is to know
about cooking, serving, and enjoying breakfast and
will be the key to starting every day as if it were
“breakfast at the Wolseley”—with effortless élan.

This complete new volume covers Scharf ’s illustrious career and his experiences and activities in the downtown art scene. His work is instantly recognizable, with idiosyncratic cartoon creatures popping up in the oddest of
places: in paintings, on functional objects, or piled up on top of each other to
form huge totem-poles. Richard Marshall helps navigate the reader across the
decades of Scharf ’s career. Carlo McCormick’s essay focuses on Scharf ’s
fanciful customized cars and installations. Ann Magnuson reminisces about
Scharf ’s happenings in the East Village and the club scene.
Richard Marshall is an independent curator, consultant, and art historian

Coinciding with the opening of London’s Saatchi Gallery, this is the most

A radical new generation of American abstract painters has emerged in the
twenty-first century. Whereas their predecessors advanced abstraction in
the shadow of the Cold War, this new generation arose at the cusp of the
transition to the digital era and is marked by the traumatic events
surrounding 9/11 and its ongoing social and political aftermath.

In these shifting times the artist’s alter ego might well be the DJ—brushstrokes are replaced by “riffs” while “old school” palettes are discarded for
“Teletubby purple” or “bubble gum pink”. This is the age of “the remix”
where raw material is downloaded and “Photoshopped”. Contemporary
artists have irony at their disposal and switch to tie-dye aesthetics or psychedelia as fast as they can quote Malevich.
This next wave is thrilling. Painted loops, reminiscent of Jackson Pollock, are
revealed to be motorcycle skid marks—bringing new meaning to Abstract
Expressionism. Even though traditions are “deconstructed” and paintings can
echo “grunge”, historical continuity remains. As Max Henry writes in his introduction, “The American Dream does not exist any more.It is itself an abstraction.”
Abstract America is being published in conjunction with the opening of one
of today’s most important institutions collecting and exhibiting contemporary art—the new Saatchi Gallery in London.

Joan Crawford

THE ENDURING STAR
THE ART OF THE SHADOW
PETER COWIE
FOREWORD BY MICK LASALLE
EPILOGUE BY GEORGE CUKOR
EMMA RUTHERFORD
A lavish photography collection that rediscovers
the glamour of the original Hollywood goddess—
sure to become the definitive portrait of one of
our greatest moviestars.
Joan Crawford’s classic beauty, dazzling confidence,
and sheer toughness made her the very definition of a
star; her formidable talent won her an Oscar for Mildred
Pierce and shines through in other classics such as
Grand Hotel and The Women. Focusing on the often
overlooked first half of her career, this is the first visual
book to reclaim her place in the canon of glamour.
Crawford pioneered a new depth that had not been
seen before in roles for women. Her domineering
charisma gave audiences a new kind of heroine,
laying the path for today’s actresses from Meryl
Streep to Cate Blanchett. Women—and many men—
identified with her in ways they never had before.
Drawing from archives around the world and
including more than a hundred photos unseen in the
past fifty years, Joan Crawford is sure to reintroduce
fans to this ultimate Hollywood legend.
This intriguing and influential art form began as a
fashionable distraction in the eighteenth century—a
creative pastime for voguish amateurs and a precursor
to the daguerreotype—became a respected form of
portraiture in the nineteenth century, and has seen a
resurgence in contemporary art and graphic design in
the work of such artists as Kara Walker, Tord Boontje,
and Ryan McGinness.
Peter Cowie is a film historian and author of some
thirty books. Formerly the international director of
Emma Rutherford is an art historian who has special-
Variety , he now serves as consultant for the Berlin
Film Festival and contributes commentaries for
Criterion Collection releases. Mick LaSalle is the

University. George Cukor was one of the greatest
directors of Hollywood’s golden age. His credits
include Little Women , The Women , The Philadelphia
Story, Gaslight, and A Star Is Born.

Elegant and enigmatic, the silhouette is the simplest
of art forms—but that simplicity belies a rich and
varied past. In this first major work on the art of the
silhouette, art historian Emma Rutherford draws
from dozens of American and European sources to
create a fascinating history of the craft.
The original silhouette practitioners artfully captured
their times, shedding light on the genteel drawing
rooms of eighteenth-century society, the lives of slaves
and free men in nineteenth-century America, and the
dynamics and stereotypes of contemporary culture.
The silhouette has transcended social and historical
boundaries to leave an iconographic legacy of
forgotten fashions, creative childhoods, and of daily
lives that would otherwise be lost forever, making it an
art form of enduring interest.
“She was the perfect image of a movie star . . . You
could photograph her from any angle, and the face
moved beautifully.”

Tracey Emin:
A Thousand Drawings
TRACEY EMIN
The definitive collection of the drawings
and monoprints of one of the leading British
contemporary artists of her generation.
Tracey Emin has stirred controversy as well as
acclaim since she rose to fame as the most highly
publicized of the infamous Young British Artists.
Though denounced by conservative critics at the
outset, Emin’s work has attracted serious critical
attention since the early 1990s for being consistently
engaging, original, and startlingly direct. Her work
has succeeded over the years in many media—from
films to appliqués, embroideries, and installations—
but it is in her works on paper that the honesty and
frankness that have come to characterize her work
are most fully realized.
AMERICAN COUTURE AND THE
CULT OF CELEBRITY
KOHLE YOHANNAN
INTRODUCTION BY HAROLD KODA
A rediscovery of the once-legendary American
couturier Valentina Schlee, one of the most
important designers of the twentieth century.
Valentina was the twentieth century’s first American fashion designer celebrity, working and
living on equal social footing with the clientele
she dressed (Greta Garbo, Gloria Swanson,
Katharine Hepburn, Millicent Rogers, and
Audrey Hepburn, among others). One of the few
designers who proved that America could live
without the Parisian haute couture, her career is
a much needed missing link in the history of
American fashion.
Edited by the artist herself from an archive of work
stretching back before the beginnings of her career in
the late 1980s, A Thousand Drawings is at once a
collection of Emin’s works on paper, an exposé of
her life as an artist, and a collectible artifact in itself.
Many of these works on paper shed light on wellknown multimedia pieces, previously studied in
Works 1963–2006, published by Rizzoli in 2006.
Stripped of the distractions of form and context,
her bare and enigmatic drawings are presented on
bible-thin paper in a uniquely beautiful slipcased
volume, with an introduction by the artist. From
considered self-portraits to pen-and-ink drawings
and informal studies on lined notebook paper, this
remarkable collection is as much a catalogue of
Emin’s preoccupations as it is a monument to her
raw and evocative talents as an artist.
Beyond merely turning out show-stopping evening
gowns, Valentina’s exotic beauty, dramatic personality, and incomparable style earned her a
legendary reputation. Kohle Yohannan explores
the carefully constructed persona and lore of this
designer who helped define American Couture.
Published in association with the Museum of the
City of New York’s exhibition Valentina: New York
Couture and the Cult of Celebrity, this book
includes photographs, never-before-seen personal
ephemera, sketches, and original platinum prints
from master photographers such as Cecil Beaton,
Horst P. Horst, and George Hoyningen-Huene.
Tracey Emin was born in London in 1963. Nominated
Exhibition Schedule: Museum of the City of New York,
for the Turner Prize in 1999 and chosen to represent
Britain at the 52nd Venice Biennale in 2007, Emin is also
a member of the Royal Academy of Arts. The author of
several books, including Strangeland, her memoir, she
contributes regularly to The Independent newspaper and
lives and works in London.

The Cultivated Life:
Illustrations by Jean-Philippe Delhomme
JEAN-PHILIPPE DELHOMME
A witty look at the very chic and jocular musings of a master fashion
and lifestyle illustrator.
The stroke of his brush is almost as sharp as his wit, but the result is always
playful and droll. Jean-Philippe Delhomme is a prolific name in the world
of illustration and often described as the Parisian answer to the smart
cartoons that appear in the New Yorker. His instantly recognizable style is
world-renowned in a range of media—from chic television ads for Saab to
the boutique campaigns for Barneys and fashion advertising.

turned out to be perfect for the dining area.”

The Cultivated Life, the first-ever English compilation of Delhomme’s
work, is a celebration of his gently satiric musings of “first-world” problems.
Drawing from the trials and tribulations of the contemporary lifestyle—the
design addict cautiously circling the latest modern furniture piece in an
upscale boutique, or finding the perfect outfit to convey one’s current
philosophy—Delhomme chicly illustrates the humor in all that surrounds
him. This monograph includes over 100 illustrations and an insightful essay
about Delhomme’s work.
Jean-Philippe Delhomme has created volumes of illustrated work and
animated television commercials. He has also written a children’s book,
Visit to Another Planet, as well as two fully illustrated novels.

Chris Ofili
DAVID ADJAYE, THELMA GOLDEN,
AND OKWUI ENWEZOR
A beautifully designed monograph surveying
the career of internationally renowned artist
Chris Ofili.
The recipient of the 1998 Turner Prize, Chris Ofili
is one of the most important artists working today.
Ofili began to garner attention in the mid-1990s
with his intricately constructed works that combine
beadlike dots of paint, collaged images from the
popular media, and natural, if unusual, materials
such as elephant dung. Ofili created a unique
iconography that married African artistic and ritual
practices with Western art-historical traditions and
contemporary hip-hop culture. Throughout his
career, Ofili has explored themes of race, birth,
death, seduction, and salvation on both a religious
and a personal level. His most recent body of work
employs Trinidadian myth and folk traditions to
reinterpret age-old Christian beliefs.
This extraordinary book is the first to examine the
full scope of Ofili’s artistic development over the
last two decades. Extending beyond his painterly
practice, the book surveys Ofili’s work in watercolor, graphite drawing, and sculpture. Literary
and historical parallels from contributors David
Adjaye, Thelma Golden, and Okwui Enwezor
explore the ways through which the artist has
grasped his times with a palpable sense of history
and intellectual curiosity.
Chris Ofili was born in 1968 in Manchester, England, and
lives and works in Trinidad. He studied at the Chelsea
School of Art, London, and the Royal College of Art,
London. Devil’sPie, the artist’s debut solo exhibition at David
Zwirner, New York, in 2007, was the first to unite Ofili’s work
in painting, sculpture, printmaking, and graphite drawing.
David Adjaye is an award-winning architect and founder
of Adjaye/Associates. Thelma Golden is chief curator at
the Studio Museum in Harlem, New York. Okwui Enwezor
is dean of academic affairs and senior vice president at
the San Francisco Art Institute.

One of the few truly visionary architects of largescale commissions working today, Thom Mayne’s
influential firm Morphosis, founded in the early
1970s, has maintained an avant-garde presence
among contemporary architecture firms, even as it
has garnered high-profile, big-budget commissions
from around the world.
Since Rizzoli published Volume I of the Morphosis
series in 1989, the Los Angeles–based firm has
continued to push its intricate modernism into new
territories. In the tradition of its four visually
groundbreaking predecessors, this fifth volume
packs 500 illustrations into a comprehensive tour
of Morphosis’s activity.
New works covered in Volume V include Cal Trans
Headquarters in Los Angeles (2004); the San
Francisco Federal Office building (2006); the
Wayne L. Morse United States Courthouse in
Eugene, Oregon (2006); and the University of

SHIGERU BAN
This large-format monograph is the first to chronicle
exclusively Shigeru Ban’s explorations in “paper
architecture.” Informed by a thorough and early
interest in sustainable forms, his innovative practice
pioneered the use of paper as a structural element in
buildings. This book features permanent and temporary structures, ranging from one-off museums and
exhibition spaces to emergency structures for
communities displaced by natural and man-made
catastrophes.
The forty projects featured in the book showcase the
variety of possible applications for paper and its
derivative forms (cardboard, fiber-based composites). As flexible as it is adaptable, when used in
tandem with other locally sourced building materials or
post-industrial surplus (maritime shipping containers),
Ban’s singular use of paper knowingly references
paper’s traditional uses in vernacular Japanese buildings, and advances modern construction technology,
reducing its environmental impact.
A number of prominent works from the last decade
are featured, including the Nomadic Museums built
in New York, Los Angeles, and Tokyo, his work for
the Centre Pompidou in Paris and Metz, the Papertainer Museum in Seoul, his pavilions for design and
luxury brands like Louis Vuitton and Artek, as well as
a number of landmark residences in Japan, Europe,
and North America. Of particular focus will be Ban’s
humanitarian work. Documented in a book for the
first time are all the relief projects his studio has
undertaken in the last two decades for the U.N. High
Commission on Refugees. These include housing for
tsunami victims in Sri Lanka and earthquake victims
in Turkey and Japan, and emergency shelter for warravaged communities in Rwanda and the Congo.
Shigeru Ban established his own practice in 1985, and
now has offices in Tokyo, Paris, and New York. The recipient
of numerous awards for his architecture, Ban is a professor

Punk Couture
CLOTHES FOR HEROES
PUNKPISTOL
WITH CONTRIBUTIONS FROM
MALCOLM MCLAREN, VIVIENNE WESTWOOD,
BERNIE RHODES, JORDAN, JON SAVAGE,
GLEN MATLOCK, AND STEVE SEVERIN
The definitive book on the originators and
trendsetters of punk fashion.
Between 1971 and 1979, Malcolm McLaren and
Vivienne Westwood ran a clothes shop at 430 Kings
Road in Chelsea that would come to influence and
reflect everything we think of as punk. Westwood was
an innovative and subversive designer, McLaren an
inspiring and unflagging impresario,and together they
dictated the tastes and defined the aesthetics of punk
youth. Over the course of the decade, their shop
became a focal point of the burgeoning culture, and
their clothes became indispensable and inimitable
monuments to punk ideals. Printing Situationist texts
on their fabrics, misappropriating iconic logos, openly
asserting an aggressive sexuality, and invoking
elements of the graphic style for which Jamie Reid
would later be celebrated.
In Punk Couture: Clothes for Heroes, collector and
dealer PunkPistol presents a definitive and unrivaled
catalog of more than 300 rare and original pieces that
illustrate the catalytic influence of McLaren and
Westwood’s designs, from bondage-wear to tartan,
from Sex Pistols T-shirts to Mickey Mouse dresses,
and from studded leathers to swastika prints. With
an introduction by Malcolm McLaren, an interview
with Vivienne Westwood, and further contributions
from Jon Savage, Bernie Rhodes, and Glen Matlock
of the Sex Pistols, among others.
PunkPistol is a collector and exclusive dealer of
rare and vintage clothing. He has curated exhibitions of his own and other collections in London,
New York, and Tokyo, and was a major contributor
to The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s AngloMania
exhibit. He lives in London.

Lucian Freud
On Paper
ESSAY BY RICHARD CALVOCORESSI
INTRODUCTION BY SEBASTIAN SMEE
The definitive survey of drawings, etchings, and
other works on paper by Lucian Freud.
Lucian Freud is widely regarded as one of the
greatest living artists, and drawing is fundamental to
his development as an artist and to how he sees.
Speaking recently about his early years he claimed,
“I would have thought I did 200 drawings to every
painting in those early days. I very much prided
myself on my drawing.”
Drawing became an important part of Freud’s life
from the start and a famous sketchbook, The
Freud-Schuster Book, has survived dating back to
January 1940, when Freud was in Snowdonia
with Stephen Spender, as do sketches from
Freud’s life as a merchant seaman on a cargo
vessel in the Atlantic in 1941. His then surreal
style lent itself to illustrations and his fascination
with animals, birds, and fish was revealed in the
famous line drawings he produced for Nicholas
Moore’s book of poems, The Glass Tower (1944).
This volume charts Freud’s work on paper,
including the etchings, over his entire career. It
includes the formative early work, the sketches in
preparation for painting his masterpiece, Large
Interior W11 (after Watteau) (1983), the sketches
of the completed painting in the studio and the
astonishing later studies of his mother. The book
ends with the etchings of recent years. The works
on paper are an extraordinary achievement,
providing even deeper insights into the work of
perhaps the greatest figurative artist of our time.
Pluto Aged Twelve, 2000
Richard Calvocoressi was for many years
Director of the Scottish National Gallery of Modern
Art and is now Director of the Henry Moore Foundation.
Sebastian Smee has written frequently on Freud. He is
the author of Lucian Freud 1996–2005 and Freud at Work.

INTERIOR WORLDS
TOM DIXON
Lavishly illustrated with sketches, concept renderings and photographs,
this book is a window on what inspires one of the world’s leading figures
in product design.
Tom Dixon is one of the world’s leading designers, and this book explores his
very personal approach to product design. He began designing furniture twenty
years ago after a motorcycle accident, relying on his welding skills to create a
variety of ornamental and functional objects including the famous S-Bend chair
which was then marketed by Cappellini, the Italian furniture maker. Among his
most notable designs are the Mirrorball light and Soft System couch.

The book collects images of objects and other sources that have inspired
his work juxtaposed with his designs, offering a window into his interior
world. The book also delves into such currently hot design topics as materials and processes, and it surveys design history as well as looking into
the future of product design.
The book’s exterior case was personally designed by Tom Dixon and
features a number of custom printing effects that make it a must-have objet.
Tom Dixon is a leading British product designer. Best known as the creative
director of Conran and Habitat, he is currently the head designer of Artek, the
leading Finnish company founded by modernist icon Alvar Aalto.

The work of James Cutler and Bruce Anderson of Cutler Anderson
Architects reveals a unique approach to sustainable architecture:
encouraging environmental stewardship through design that heightens
the experience of the natural world. Each project begins with a careful
investigation of site and material and culminates in a well-crafted
building that fits seamlessly into the landscape.
This monograph examines Cutler Anderson’s practice as it expands
beyond their widely admired houses to include public buildings.
Among the thirty award-winning projects featured are innovative
structures—residential as well as institutional—that show the firm’s
refinement of structural expressiveness, articulated details, and multilayered transitions. Stunning photographs are supplemented by
complete project documentation, including sketches, diagrams, presentation drawings, working drawings, and models.
Oscar Riera Ojeda is the creator of several books including Architecture in Detail, Art and Architecture, and Contemporary World.
Oscar Niemeyer
Buildings
PHOTOGRAPHY BY ALAN WEINTRAUB
TEXT BY ALAN HESS
This lavishly illustrated volume documents
the institutional and civic buildings of a
modern master.
At age 100, Oscar Niemeyer is universally acknowledged as a master of form, color, and light—the last
living Modern master. Niemeyer is known primarily
for his large-scale institutional and civic designs
throughout Brazil and Europe—daringly conceptual
works that challenged twentieth-century orthodoxy
about Modernism, materials, and structure. This
comprehensive book, a companion to Rizzoli’s Oscar
Niemeyer Houses, presents a reevaluation of his
greatest buildings, in all new color photography
specially commissioned for this book. Featured are
the architect’s most seminal work, including:
Ministry of Education and Health, Rio de Janeiro;
Brasilia; New Pampulha Yacht Club, Belo Horizonte, Brazil; Mondadori Headquarters, Milan; Le
Havre Central Cultural Center, France; Niteroi
Museum of Contemporary Art, Brazil; and the
Oscar Niemeyer Museum.
A periodic resident of Rio de Janeiro, photographer
Alan Weintraub has been granted unprecedented
access to these remarkable structures—from Brazil
to North Africa to Italy. As a result, Oscar Niemeyer
Buildings reveals the master’s brilliant artistry, and
his eloquent, sinuous, utterly livable Modernism.
Alan Weintraub is a widely published architectural photographer whose recent books include
Frank Lloyd Wright: Mid-Century Modern, Oscar Niemeyer
Houses, and Frank Lloyd Wright: The Houses. Alan
Hess , an architect and critic for the San Jose Mercury
News, is author of Frank Lloyd Wright: Mid-Century
Modern, O scar Niemeyer Houses, and Frank Lloyd

Tom Sachs: Space Program

CONTRIBUTION BY ARTHUR C. DANTO
DEBORAH TURBEVILLE
A complete survey of Sachs’s Space Program, a re-creation of the
NASA moon landing done in the artist’s DIY aesthetic.
For over a decade, Sachs has pondered the technical ingenuity and romance
with the unknown that brought America the Apollo program. This publication documents the culmination of his research: the realization of his own
life-size Space Program, comprised of three main sculptural elements (Lunar
Module, Mission Control, and Space Suit) and a Flight Plan, all put to use
during a live demonstration of a lunar landing. In his exuberant manufacture
of objects and scenarios, Sachs asks barbed questions of modern creativity
that relate to conception, production, consumption, and circulation.

This greatly sought-after survey of the influential Ferus Gallery, in
operation in Los Angeles from 1957 to 1967, is now back in print.
Under the seminal direction of Irving Blum, Ferus Gallery quickly became
one of the leading galleries on the West Coast, showing important and
groundbreaking works—including Andy Warhol’s Campbell’s Soup Cans,
Roy Lichtenstein’s Drowning Girl, and Ed Ruscha’s Los Angeles County
Museum on Fire—and helping to launch the American Pop movement.

The book was first published on the occasion of the 2002 exhibition of the
same name at Gagosian’s Chelsea gallery. A timeline documenting the Ferus
gallery’s history opens the fully illustrated catalogue, followed by an interview with Irving Blum by Roberta Bernstein and a critical discussion of
Warhol’s Campbell’s soup can paintings by Kirk Varnedoe. This hardcover
edition is 148 pages, with 93 color and 67 black-and-white reproductions,
including evocative documentary photography by Dennis Hopper.
Roberta Bernstein received her Ph.D. in art history from Columbia University, taught at Columbia and Barnard College, and joined the University at
Albany faculty in 1980 where she currently works. Kirk Varnedoe was an
American art historian and writer, a Professor of the History of Art at the
Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, and chief curator of the Painting
and Sculpture Department at the Museum of Modern Art in New York for
nearly 15 years.
Casa No Name is internationally acclaimed
photographer Deborah Turbeville’s soulful
evocation of her hauntingly beautiful house
in Mexico.
In the tradition of Kahlo and Allende, Turbeville’s
brilliantly stylish portrait of her Mexican house
evokes both her vivid imagination and the mystique
of Mexico. High-ceilinged rooms surround a
central courtyard that is lined with faded frescoes of
biblical scenes. The glimmer and shafts of diffused
light that stream into the courtyards and curtained
rooms add to the romantic atmosphere—one feels
as though they have entered into a quintessential
Turbeville photograph. Turbeville has captured
the spiritual nature of Mexican culture by incorporating into candlelit interiors such traditional
religious artifacts as colorful painted tin retablos,
hand-carved saints, wooden tableau boxes, and a
central wooden figure of the local Virgin Saint
Maria Candelaria: aged objets that are handmade,
tell stories, and are arranged in artful vignettes.
Casa No Name speaks of magic realism and
beckons the reader into the private world of this
visionary artist. Turbeville’s diaristic presentation of her home in the central highlands of
Mexico is a welcome addition to her rich oeuvre
and an inspiration for anyone interested in the
soul and style of Mexico.
Deborah Turbeville ’s work first appeared in
Vogue in the 1970s. Since then, she has been a
dominant figure in contemporary photography. Her
work continues to be exhibited around the world
and is published regularly in many international
magazines.

The Ultimate Insider’s Guide
to Cinema’s Hidden Gems
ROBERT KAHN, SERIES EDITOR
From the creators of the elegant City Secrets
guides comes this unique collection, in which
cinema’s most revered figures share favorite
movies, performances, and moments in film.
Called “the best literary gift to travelers since the
Baedeker and Henry James” (Financial Times), City
Secrets guides are charming travelers’ companions to
the world’s most fascinating cities. In New York,
London, Rome, Florence, and Venice, City Secrets
offers reflections and discoveries from the authors,
artists, and historians who know each city best.
Excerpt:
Dodsworth
1936, William Wyler
I’ve always felt that Dodsworth was one of the finest American movies. William Wyler’s simplicity, Sidney Howard’s
language, and, above all, Walter Huston’s and Mary Astor’s
performances result in one of the most mature and
powerful movies in my memory. The glory and debasement that love can bring into one’s life have never been
explored so tellingly. In fact, because of our sentimentality
about love, rarely do we consider its destructive power.
Dodsworth plunges into this world unhesitatingly with art
and power and subtlety. In my view, a great film.
Sidney Lumet
Director
Living On Velvet
1935, Frank Borzage
In most films of the period, that idea is a cliché, a device, or
a pretext for character exploration (as in a Hawks picture).
But in a Borzage movie, love really does conquer all, and it
really does make the world go round. When Borzage shows
two people in love—Charles Farrell and Janet Gaynor in
Seventh Heaven, Gary Cooper and Helen Hayes in A
Farewell to Arms, Spencer Tracy and Joan Crawford in
Mannequin, Dane Clark and Gail Russell in Moonrise—you
feel as if you’ve entered a sacred realm. He lets the action
playout in lovers’ time, and every little physical and
emotional detail feels precious. Borzage’s cinema reminds
me of Renaissance painting: everything feels rounded,
perfectly aligned—sanctified.
Martin Scorsese
Director
Movies takes this intimate, insider’s approach to the
arts, featuring brief essays and recommendations by
esteemed figures in the film industry—including
actors, directors, producers, and critics—and other
writers and figures in the arts. Some have written
on a film, or an aspect of a film (a performance,
style, or theme) that they feel is overlooked or
underappreciated. Others have chosen a wellknown film for which they can offer personal
insights or behind-the-scenes observations.
Contributors include Woody Allen, Martin
Scorsese, Wes Anderson, Ken Auletta, Milos
Forman, Anjelica Huston, Barbara Kopple, Sidney
Lumet, Simon Schama, and many others.
A portion of the proceeds from this book will be
donated to The Film Foundation, an organization
founded by Martin Scorsese that raises funds for
film restoration and conversation, and promotes
awareness about motion picture history.

Pop-Up Book of Ships is a dramatic pop-up journey
into the world’s maritime past, presenting various
maritime cultural innovations.From the early explorers
such as the Santa Maria to the famous Mayflower;
from marauding pirate ships to frigates like the
Bonhomme Richard and the U.S.S. Constitution;
from a quaint Mississippi riverboat to the luxurious
S.S. Normandie ocean liner and a superbly crafted
America’s Cup yacht; from impressive aircraft
carriers such as the Intrepid or Enterprise to the
most advanced nuclear submarine. Readers will
learn about the H.M.S. Victory, labeled a “first-rate
ship,” a designation that was used as early as the
eighteenth century by the British Royal Navy for its
largest ships mounting 100 guns or more; or that
unlike a traditional square-rigged ship, the sails of a
Chinese junk can be moved toward the long axis of
the ship, allowing a junk to sail into the wind, to
name only two. Pop-Up Book of Ships presents a
dynamic history of some of the world’s greatest
maritime adventures. Colorful, informative, and
fun, Pop-Up Book of Ships adeptly showcases
maritime adventure and lure of the sea, and is a
fascinating book for sailors and seamen of all ages.
David Hawcock is a skilled paper engineer devoted

Horseback riding. Kayaking. Drive-in movies. Not the activities that first
come to mind when you think of getaways in the New York City area. But
each can be done only a short distance from the Big Apple—or in some cases,
inside the city itself! City Weekends features itineraries for over 100 getaways
in and outside of New York City for residents and visitors alike, including offbeat adventures, romantic outings, relaxing respites, and fresh scenery.
Everyone needs a place to escape to: a celebration
of the perfect backyard haven, from the useful to
the whimsical.
The first section features weekends within the five boroughs; the second
covers New Jersey, Connecticut, Long Island, and other parts of New York
state. Both describe excursions of all types—cultural activities, relaxing
retreats, outdoor escapes, festivals, fairs, and markets, and trips to do with
kids. Side trips that stretch each weekend into a multiday trip are given, as are
options for abbreviated daytrips. Hotels and inns, places to shop and dine,
and transportation tips are included.

the major cities of the world.

wedding planners.
The cutting of the cake is one of the most cherished

garden wedding to opulent more autumnal chocolate
multi-tiered sculptural cakes.

This is Greece captures the flavor and tradition of the birthplace of Western
civilization. There’s Athens, with its spectacular views of the Acropolis, the
Parthenon, temples, theaters, and marketplaces; architecture-renowned
Corinth; Mycenae, inhabited since 3000 B.C.; Olympia, home of the gods;
Delphi, famous for its legendary oracle; and the beautiful isles. There’s also
modern-day Greece, where life is lived on street corners, in squares, and at
tables amid reminders of the past.
M. Sasek was born in 1916 in Prague. An author and illustrator, he is best
remembered for his classic stories on the great cities of the world. He
died in 1980.
Mich also shows how to present the cake to create
drama and a real sense of occasion, including advice
on every detail, from the type of tablecloth to use and
how best to display candles, flowers, and ribbon.
Mich Turner’s wedding cakes are regularly featured
in Brides, Vogue, and Harper’s Bazaar, and this
book amply demonstrates how to achieve perfection.
In 1999, Mich Turner founded The Little Venice
Cake Company as a second career after many years
as a buyer at London’s high fashion Harvey Nichols.
She has designed wedding cakes for the Royal
Family, Madonna, David Beckham, Pierce Brosnan,
Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Paul McCartney, among
many others. She is the author of Spectacular Cakes
(winner of the Best Dessert Book in the World Cookbook Awards of 2005) and most recently Party Cakes.

The House Dress
A STORY OF EROTICISM AND FASHION
ELDA DANESE
After fashion designers like Emilio Pucci and Roberta di Camerino gave
their own interpretation of the house dress, the garment has become the
distinguishing personal style of Diane von Furstenberg, finding a major
place in her work.
The idea of the house dress is closely related to the concept of housework
and domesticity. At the same time, it is distinguished by not being a uniform,
thanks in particular to the decorations of the fabric. Starting in the late
1940s, a whole series of movies contributed to its image through a gallery of
remarkable female characters, the latest of which is Pedro Almodovar’s film
Volver, with a female lead who is equipped with a wardrobe full of beautifully ornamented house dresses.

Barons of Business
THEIR LUXURIOUS HOMES
AND LIFESTYLES
WILLIAM G. SCHELLER
From Carnegie and Rockefeller to Turner and
Gates, this volume celebrates the history of forty
of America’s true barons of business and opens
the door onto their private palaces.
Skillfully written and richly illustrated, Barons of
Business looks into the lives and fortunes of the
ambitious individuals like Calvin Coolidge, who
believed that “the business of America is business.”
Beginning with the colonial era, when trade was
overtaking landholding as a way to get rich, Barons
of Business follows the restless careers of our most
brilliant and driven merchants, industrialists, and
financiers as they master a new economic world of
textiles, railroads, oil, and steel. With the twentieth
century comes fresh opportunities: automobiles,
motion pictures, broadcasting, publishing and
retailing on a massive scale, and the vast horizon of
high technology.
Meet John Hancock, colonial Boston’s “limousine
liberal,” and learn how John Jacob Astor parlayed
success in the fur trade into status as Manhattan’s
master landlord and richest man in America—only
to be eclipsed by Cornelius Vanderbilt, who leaped
like a nimble Croesus from steamships to railroads.
Rockefeller, Carnegie, and Ford are here, as well as
J.P. Morgan, William Randolph Hearst, Howard
Hughes, Malcolm Forbes, Warren Buffett, Steven
Spielberg, and Bill Gates.
Barons of Business brings together more than forty
individuals for whom the business of America was
indeed business—and who excelled at it beyond
anyone’s dreams. Except, perhaps, their own.
William G. Scheller is the author or co-author
of more than twenty books, including several
written in connection with the National Geographic
Society. He has written extensively on railroad
history, the environment, and alternative energy.

Tattoos have gone from badges of rebellion to fashion statements fully
absorbed into mainstream culture. They are enjoying a renaissance, with
graphic designers and artists creating specialty tattoos for a growing audience,
unleashing a revival of interest in the bawdy vintage tattoo. Old school tattoos
are being rediscovered (sometimes ironically, sometimes not) by a new generation. Originally embraced by rebels, sailors, and gangsters, these tattoos—
broken hearts, naked girls, floral motifs, and maritime emblems—are now
showing up on the fashion runway and in music videos.
This book chronicles vintage motifs in thematic chapters interspersed with
profiles of influential tattoo artists and their distinctive designs: Sailor Jerry
Collins, Don Ed Hardy (“the Godfather of Tattoos”), Mike “Rollo Banks”
Malone, Bert Grimm, Japan’s Horiyoshi III, and Shanghai’s Pinky Yun.
Carol Clerk is a veteran music writer and author who has written for a number

RARE VINTAGE MALE NUDES
REED MASSENGILL
FOREWORD BY VICTOR SKREBNESKI
This stunning collection of rarely seen male nudes brings to light a
long-hidden chapter in the story of gay erotic photography.
In the pre-Stonewall era before the advent of the gay rights movement, male
nude photography was kept underground. Photographers feared police
confiscation, harassment, and worse. This volume uncovers the work of ten
different photographers produced during this suppressive period—images
hidden away for a generation in private collections and closed archives. The
majority have never been published.

New York
A PHOTOGRAPHIC ALBUM
COMPILED BY GABRIELA KOGAN
PHOTOGRAPHS BY
MANY LOVERS OF THE CITY
Like a love letter to the city, it is the perfect gift
or impulse buy for anyone who loves New York—
whether a current resident of the five boroughs or
an “expat” yearning for home.
This keepsake album is the freshest collection of
images published in many years savoring the many
facets of New York. Some intimate and detailed,
others wide-angled, these photographs explore the
grand chaotic serendipity that makes New York so
vibrant. Tourists and visitors often comment on
this remarkable energy—people feel more alive in
New York, especially when they are new to it—and
this is the perfect keepsake album that captures
(and re-captures) that initial dumbstruck awe and
rush of adrenaline that everyone has felt here.
The photographs also explore the contrasts that
define New York—the highs and the lows, the grand
and the ordinary. From penthouses to piers and from
bucolic Central Park to carnivalesque Coney Island,
the book explores New York’s amazing contradictions that somehow come together in a unique
masterpiece. From the heights of the Empire State to
the nether realms of the subway, from the burlesque
zaniness of Gay Pride to the busting Chinatown
streets beneath the bridge, from luxury boutiques to
colorful bodegas, and from Lincoln Center to the
street corner chanteuse—the contrasts of the city are
captured in this album to form a coherent picture of
the genius and excitement that is the city.

Spectacular Ireland

PETER HARBISON
THE NATIONAL PARKS
For the armchair traveler or readers wishing to
connect to their Irish heritage, this volume brings
together all that is truly spectacular about the
Emerald Isle.
Through words and stunning images, the Emerald
Isle is brought to life in Spectacular Ireland, a
magnificent collection of 140 color photographs
by some of Ireland’s best landscape photographers
and elegant text by Peter Harbison, one of
Ireland’s most distinguished voices and renowned
archaeologists. This handsome volume celebrates
Ireland, a small island country of extraordinary
beauty, fascinating history, and evocative myths,
where old and new thrive together. From ancient
standing stones and breathtaking pastoral scenes
to energetic cities of architectural sophistication,
we take a photographic tour reflecting the soul of
this spectacular island. A brief history of Ireland
puts the images into historical context: from
ancient Celtic dolmens to abbeys and castles, from
lush pastures, fields of heather, and seaside cliffs to
formal gardens, and from ancient villages to the
rush of contemporary Dublin.
But Ireland is much more than beautiful landscape.
Much of the magic of the country lies in the people
themselves; these are a people who cherish their
land. It is a rich heritage—of history, magic, and
mystery—that makes Ireland a favorite destination
for tourists and armchair travelers alike.
Peter Harbison is the author of many books about
Ireland, and is a former editor of Ireland of the Welcomes,
an internationally acclaimed magazine devoted to
aspects of Irish culture published in Dublin. He lives in
Dublin with his wife and three children.

NICOLAI CIKOVSKY, JR.
One hundred of Winslow Homer’s masterpieces
reproduced on special watercolor paper.
Now in its tenth edition, Watches International has
been setting the standard for up-to-date reference
guides devoted to luxury timepieces. At more than 700
pages, this volume showcases the latest watches from
around the world from every major watchmaker.
From the beautiful mountains and streams of
Canada and the Adirondacks to the sandy beaches
of New England, from the picturesque coasts of
English villages to the sunny shores of the Bahamas,
Winslow Homer captured in his paintings the true
magnificence of nature. For more than thirty years
between 1873 and 1905, Winslow Homer turned to
watercolors during his working vacations, concentrating on capturing the spirit of each place he
visited with both spontaneity and intensity.
Grand Complications
Many of Homer’s most beautiful paintings focus on
the interaction between humans and nature—a
hunter carrying a deer on his shoulders, a man
fishing from a small canoe, a girl lounging and
reading in the grass, a young man driving cattle, a
fisherman’s family anxiously watching for his
return. It is Homer’s understanding of this important relationship between humans and nature that
makes his paintings so intriguing.
HIGH-QUALITY WATCHMAKING—
VOLUME V
This catalog features the highest quality complicated
timepieces from the most luxurious watchmakers.
Grand Complications provides a detailed overview of
complicated watchmaking. This reference work for
connoisseurs deals with each of the major horological
complications by theme, from their history through to
their most recent developments.
