1963-1965
A Band on the Brink of Superstardom
Edited by Robin Morgan
n July 1962, a group of young men played a gig
at The Marquee Club on Oxford Street,
London. They called themselves ‘The Rollin’
Stones’ and little did they know they would soon
be making music history.
I
This brilliant new book captures the youth, the times and the spirit of The
Stones’ formative early years. And documenting 1963-1965 were two young
photographers just starting out in their careers. Terry O’Neill, aged just 25, had
a few years’ experience photographing musicians and knew that this group had
the same magic as another British phenomenon that just recently started to
chart, The Beatles. As the band was starting to record and tour, Gered
Mankowitz came along. His first shoot, the now famous Mason’s Yard session,
was so fruitful, Gered was asked to tag along on tour to America. Gered was a
mere 19 when he picked up his camera and joined the band on stage in 1965.
Between these two legendary photographers, they document the band’s
beginnings and these indelible images are forever placed in music’s
consciousness. The photography throughout this book is embellished with
various memories and interviews, celebrating the early days and giving an
insight into what it must have felt like to go from a small club in Soho with no
record deal to touring the world a few years later with a number one record.
Terry O’Neill and Gered Mankowitz, two of the most respected, collected and
exhibited photographers in the world were sitting in the front-row.

2016 is set to be a huge year for the Rolling Stones, as London’s Saatchi
Gallery hosts the first ever major exhibition dedicated to the band:
Exhibitionism, a career-spanning, museum-style display of Stones artefacts and
memorabilia. ACC Editions’ publication of this book is due to coincide with
the opening of this ground-breaking exhibition.
“
I was impressed by The Stones. They were
dressed casually, had mischief in them and were
different to other bands. Terry O Neill

Bob Dylan Play Book
Illustrations by Matteo Guarnaccia, Text by Giulia
Pivetta
Beginning with rockabilly, moving on to folk music, sliding over to electric, and
falling into a psychedelic phase, like a chameleon Bob Dylan has changed his
skin repeatedly over the years, juggling his image with apparent ease and
subverting the prevailing social and aesthetic models each time. His Supro
guitar and the leather jacket - reminiscent of James Dean; the muse of his hobo
period Suze Rotolo and his legendary Triumph Bonneville; the Newport Jazz
Festival and the Gaslight Cafe in Greenwich Village: artist Matteo Guarnaccia
has documented this pilgrimage of styles stage by stage, year by year, with a
wealth of detail. The clothes, faces, music and places of those years become
subjects to colour in, paper-dolls to dress, and board games to assemble, while
the characters of his songs provide the members of a colourful circus.
This is the ultimate collector’s activity-book to be approached with glue, scissors
and colouring pencils, dedicated to all the fans of the legendary singersongwriter.

Painting Norway
Lumière on The Mona Lisa
Nikolai Astrup 1880-1928
Frances Carey, Ian Dejardin, MaryAnne Stevens
Hidden Portraits
Pascal Cotte
A pioneering painter and printmaker, Nikolai Astrup (1880-1928) spent his life
capturing the landscapes of his home in Western Norway, imbuing his work with
mysticism and an enigmatic symbolic content. The first UK exhibition of his work will
run at the Dulwich Picture Gallery from February to May 2016. Over 90 oil paintings
and prints will explore the breadth and depth of Astrup’s unique artistic practice,
shining a spotlight on one of Norway’s most renowned artists of the twentieth
century.
Groundbreaking and important new discoveries concerning the Mona Lisa.
Frances Carey is an independent curator and consultant who was formerly Deputy
Keeper of Prints and Drawings and Head of National Programmes at the British
Museum. She has published on the history of art and culture from the eighteenth
century to the present day. Ian A.C. Dejardin is the Sackler Director of Dulwich
Picture Gallery, London. He graduated with a Master (Hons) in History of Art from
Edinburgh University; appointed Curator at Dulwich in 1997, he became the gallery’s
Director in 2005 and since then has presided over a varied and international
exhibition programme. MaryAnne Stevens is an independent art historian and curator
who has previously worked at the Royal Academy of Arts, London, as Director of
Academic Affairs, before serving as Acting Secretary for three years. She has been
published extensively, and curated or co-curated many major international exhibitions,
including Manet: Portraying Life and Jean-Etienne Liotard.
The Mona Lisa is one of mankind’s great mysteries. With over 9.7 million admirers
per year, it is the most legendary painting of all time. No other work has provoked
such a desire to know its secrets. Now, after a decade of research, Pascal Cotte has
pioneered an extraordinary scientific imagery technique (L.A.M.), that takes us into
the heart of the paint-layers of the world’s most famous picture and reveals secrets that
have remained hidden for 500 years.
This book takes us on a remarkable journey that reveals stage by stage, layer by layer,
his remarkable findings. It demonstrates definitively, for the first time, answers to the
mysteries that have eluded us for centuries. Who was the lady in the picture? Did
Leonardo paint another version? What really lies behind that iconic face? And how
did Leonardo achieve that beguiling and seductive smile?

Lumière on the Lady with an Ermine
Donald Woodman
Unprecedented Discoveries
Pascal Cotte
This book on The Lady with an Ermine is the first to examine in depth the painting
technique of Leonardo da Vinci and reveals the secrets of the creation of his paintings.
One key to this work is the unprecedented discovery of a true small ermine hidden
beneath the visible animal that we see today. We also discover that the first intention
of the Master was to paint a classic portrait - without an animal. Probably at the
instigation of the Duke of Milan, Leonardo may have altered its composition and later
added an ermine then, unsatisfied, transformed it again. Is it not strange then that in
1493 the first poem that describes this portrait does not mention the ermine, as this is
an important element of the painting.
Agnes Martin at Tate Modern (through Oct 2015) presents the first comprehensive
survey of the seminal artist Agnes Martin. Martin was renowned for her subtle,
evocative canvases marked out in pencil grids and pale colour washes. This
internationally touring show demonstrates Agnes Martin as one of the pre-eminent
painters of the twentieth century and traces her career from early experiments to her
final painting from 2004. Agnes Martin is co-curated at Tate Modern by Frances
Morris, Director of Collection, International Art and Tiffany Bell, with Dr Lena
Fritsch, Assistant Curator, Tate Modern. The exhibition is organised by Tate Modern
in collaboration with Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Düsseldorf, Los Angeles
County Museum of Art and Solomon R Guggenheim Museum, New York where it
will tour throughout 2015 and 2016.

Pascal Cotte’s findings are the subject of a major BBC documentary and were
announced to the world in December.
Agnes Martin and Me
One of the outstanding artists of the 20th century, Agnes Martin created ethereal
abstractions while living almost as a hermit in New Mexico and issuing Zen-like
pronouncements about her art. Photographer Donald Woodman, who shared her
property (which he owned) and her life for seven rollercoaster years, takes us behind
that legend in this affectionate and respectful, unvarnished and candid account to
reveal an exasperating, troubled, earthy, but brave and determined painter. At the heart
of the memoir is a surreal journey with Martin down Canada’s Mackenzie River,
toward the Arctic, which her “voices” instructed her to undertake. Illustrated by
Woodman's photographs, this book adds a crucial dimension to the Martin story and
is destined to become a small classic of art biography.

Paperback
There are over 150 brand new discoveries about the painting. A landmark event in the
world of art, this book shatters many myths and alters our vision of Leonardo’s
masterpiece forever.
Thanks to a revolutionary new technique, Pascal Cotte is able to analyse, layer by layer,
all the superpositions of the brushstrokes. It is thus possible to reconstruct the whole
story; from plank of wood, through all superimposed layers to the final appearance.
Everything is analysed rigorously and methodically. The book also reveals important
details about the construction of the painting, the wanderings of the painter, his
hesitations, his errors and changes. All these findings were not previously visible using
the traditional equipment of laboratories of museums. The author uses a new scientific
method of analysis of pictorial works he invented and named L.A.M. for Layer
Amplification Method.

Think Eclectic
Architects’ Homes
Edited By Gina Tsarouhas
Piet Swimberghe & Jan Verlinde
This stunning book takes a rare glimpse into the intriguing and unique homes of some
of the world’s best-known architects. How do these architects design their own private
domains? How do their furnishing styles impact on the structural integrity of the
space? How do these individuals express their interior design flair in their own haven?
The title starts by introducing the relationship between the architect and their
professional work, by telling how that marries with their own private tastes, and how
they interpret current trends and enable their own philosophies to transfer to their
personal, private environments. Combining rich photography and spectacular imagery
with the personal stories of these industry professionals, this book provides a rich
source for those keen to delve into the design aesthetics, concepts and innovations of
leaders in their very own field.
The current dominant interior style is surprisingly eclectic. In this book, art collectors,
architects, designers and antiquarians mastering this trend, allow us to enter their
private spaces. They mix different styles to form a new unity, combining old and new,
sleek and baroque. No sterile showrooms are shown here, but real houses, decorated by
these creative minds. The eclectic style does not have any rules and underlines the
strong individual character of the decorator.
Art historian Piet Swimberghe and photographer Jan Verlinde work for numerous
magazines such as Elle Living, Coté Ouest, MTC and Weekend Knack. They have
produced books on architecture, design and interiors and written many articles for
European interior magazines.
Features the homes of a range of leading architects from around the world, including
the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Japan, and Europe.

Bibliophile Bart Van Aken has been collecting
quotes about reading for several years. This book
contains his own personal selection. Including
such declarations of love as “Reading is that
fruitful miracle of communication in the midst of
solitude” (Marcel Proust), surprising, witty
statements like “Outside of a dog, a book is a man’s
best friend. Inside of a dog it’s too dark to read”
(Groucho Marx) and wise statements to mull
over, including “We can destroy what we have
written, but we cannot unwrite it” (Anthony
Burgess).
Every quote is presented in a unique, original and
tailor-made design by Dooreman, with an
adapted font or special letter shapes. Where
applicable, the quote has also been provided in
the original language alongside the English, with
a brief explanation, such as the author and
context.
This smart and snappy book is the printinterpretation of ‘The List’ www.thelistmag.com a website dedicated to sourcing and sharing
weekly nuggets of interest that touch on every

One Hundred and
Fifty Thoughts About
Trademarks, Symbols,
and Logotypes
Design by Thinking
Ken Cato
There is often little difference between the
communications of corporations within any given
industry sector. The reliance for recognition more often
is the responsibility of the trademark. This volume
gives insight to a method of broader visual language
that reduces this reliance and gives more opportunity
for corporations to respond to business change,
increasing product ranges and gaining higher visibility.
This is not about advertising; it’s about utilising
existing budgets for a strong, more visible result.
Beautifully packaged and designed, and richly illustrated
with insightful commentary from an international body
of peers, this book harnesses the thinking and philosophies
behind some of the world’s most influential practitioners
in the visual language fields.
In a world where computer graphics provide a more
professional finish to both good and bad design, the
distinguishing factor is the strength of the core idea.
This volume offers 100 observations into pivotal
points in creating or developing the ideas that drive
corporate and brand identity. This full-colour book
will delve into the principles, theory and design
processes that help generate movement from the
germination of a concept to the genesis of a wellknown and recognisable design of a brand or
corporate identity.
This volume profiles 150 trademarks, symbols and
logotypes from around the world giving examples in
nine categories of origin. Showcased with detailed
images and rich, photographic detail, this unique
guide illustrates examples from marques based on
alphabetical forms, human forms, cultural
connections, natural resources, flora and fauna,
known forms, built forms, abstract forms and word
marks.

The Flying Scotsman
The 500 Hidden Secrets of London
Speed, Style and Service
Tom Greig
Andrew McLean
Where are the 5 best places to find street food? Which
are the 5 best restaurants to grab your lunch at in
Soho? Which pubs have the most amazing interiors?
No other train has entered the British national
consciousness in the same way as the Flying
Scotsman. It has been the star of films, music,
dances, literature and even a cocktail - designed at
the train’s own cocktail bar in the 1930s.
Where are the best places to discover vintage vinyl? Which are the most innovative
theatre companies? Where will you find the most unusual museums? The best places
for an outdoor swim?
The 500 Hidden Secrets of London reveals these good-to-know places and many more.
Discover a diverse range of under-the-radar yet outstanding addresses that will allow
you to explore the best of the city away from the crowds. An affectionate and
informed guide to London, written by a true local. This is a book for visitors who want
to avoid the usual tourist spots and for residents who are keen to track down the city’s
best-kept secrets.
The Flying Scotsman first ran in 1862; it still runs today, passing through
incarnations like stations through the years. In its heyday of the 1920s and ‘30s
it was seen as the pinnacle of modernity: a stylish, glamorous feat of
engineering. Now it is viewed through the heady steam of nostalgia; an iconic
image of days gone by.

This book follows the story of the Flying Scotsman in a way that no other
history has, expertly weaving together the tale of the locomotive with a wider
historical narrative. Furthermore, it delves into the lesser-known stories of the
train - such as its sabotage by striking miners in 1926 - and features superb
examples of poster art and other publicity materials commissioned by the LNER
to promote the service, and documentary photography from the nineteenth
century to the present. Written by the current curator of the National Rail
Museum, the story of the Flying Scotsman has never been told so well.

What sort of curious place would give its shortest street the longest name? Or build a
dazzling gold-lined dome - and hide it from view? The same mixed-up metropolis
that was once the capital of England - and also birthplace of its most infamous
terrorist. Even if you were the world’s most imaginative storyteller, you couldn’t make
York up. The city is stranger than any fiction. But to find its oddities and secrets you’ll
need to step off the beaten tourist path and explore its side streets and alleys, known
locally as snickelways. Be warned, the journey might throw up a few dark moments,
from the Bitchdaughter Tower to the spikes upon which traitors heads were impaled.
Yet you’ll also encounter the traces of many local colourful characters, from an Oscarwinning actor to a dastardly plotter, from assorted stone cats to a rather rude ghost.
You can browse the shops in the street that inspired Harry Potter’s Diagon Alley and
tour remarkable retailers like Duttons For Buttons, and the Banana Warehouse which sells pretty much everything - except bananas; or celebrate in the city that
hosted Britain’s first Christmas and is home to Ulph’s Drinking Horn. With 2,000
years of history to discover, there is a surprise around every corner - if you know where
to look.

Liverpool’s unique history as an international port and a cultural melting pot has given
it a character all its own. The city has produced music that conquered the world and is
home to more historic buildings than any other British metropolis outside London. It
features two magnificent cathedrals and many world famous museums. But beyond its
renowned exterior is a labyrinth of places hidden and unknown. This deliciously offbeat
guidebook will lead you to a different Liverpool: down tunnels, up skyscrapers, and into
secret bars, speciality shops, and disused factories. You will see Balenciaga trainers and
football trophies, rolling bridges and disappearing statues, Liver Birds and suitcases,
extravagant cakes and cast-iron churches. Explore Britain’s first mosque. Wander a roof
garden of wild flowers, where different species bloom each month of the year. Marvel at
the world’s most expensive book or largest brick building (27 million bricks!). Relax in a
hip tea bar with over 50 varieties of tea (loose leaf, naturally); or visit a place where you
can drink Dandelion and Burdock with your fish and chips.

Shaped by emperors, architects and artists, Paris
is a city of splendour, elegance, and romance;
cosmopolitan and colourful, its streets pulse with
life. This sumptuously illustrated book celebrates
its glory on the Grands Boulevards and Champs
Elysées, and captures its cultural heartbeat in the
artists’ quarter of Montmartre and the Quartier
Latin on the Left Bank. To discover Paris is also
to experience the finer things in life.
The Paris Book dips into superb museums and
galleries; visits opulent theatres, grand restaurants
and bohemian cafés; browses the city’s flea
markets, bookshops and chic boutiques; and
cruises along the Seine. As Hemingway said,
Paris is “a moveable feast”.
For a landscape, a monument or an urban
ensemble to be inscribed in the UNESCO list of
World Heritage sites they need to be one thing
above all: a part of the legacy of all mankind, the
heritage of the world’s population that needs to
be protected. To date, more than 1,000 sites,
monuments and natural spaces have been
inscribed as the “Heritage of Humanity”
according to the rules of UNESCO, and benefit
from a specially protected status.
The compact volume presents all the World
Heritage sites with superb photographs.
Informative texts provide background
information, and maps help to locate each site.
Bruges City Guide 2016 is THE most comprehensive guide to visiting the ‘Venice of
the north’; this guide contains up-to-date information (opening hours etc.) on ALL
places of interest, museums and attractions, and will be revised every year.
The convenient address guide will help you find the best shops, hotels, bed and
breakfasts, cafés and restaurants, while the fold out street map will help you get to your
destination. This definitive little guide includes three atmospheric walks, as well as
cycling routes, through the city, helping you discover the incredibly diverse museums,
from the Groeninge Museum, featuring fine art from the 15th to the 21st century, to
the Hospital Museum - two medieval hospital buildings in the centre of Bruges,
enjoying a new lease of life as art galleries; monuments, such as The Belfry, with its
carillon that has rung every quarter hour for over 700 years; well-known locations,
such as the historic city centre - A UNESCO World Heritage Site; and picturesque,
hidden alleyways. It also includes tips from locals, letting you in on the secrets that
only those native to Bruges would know, and features information on cultural events.
Bruges City Guide 2016 illustrates how this historic city, with its cherished architecture
and artistic treasures - and its breweries and 50 or so chocolate boutiques - really does
have something for everybody, whether you’re planning a day trip or a weekend
getaway.

Traveller extraordinaire Michael Clinton has
returned with a stunning new series that defines
sense of place in some of the world’s most
beautiful locations. Choosing the glories of New
York’s preeminent summer destination - the
Hamptons - as the subject in the first instalment,
Clinton captures the essence of beachfront life
and infuses it with wonder and joy.
In The Snaps Series: The Hamptons, the
accomplished photographer uses his unique eye
to transform ordinary, everyday moments into
insightful and inspiring images. Whether it be a
crab hiding in the shadow of the dunes, a farmer’s
stand, historic windmill, or the unpeopled curve
of the early morning beach, these evocative
images invite viewers to contemplate and focus
on the small, yet telling moments that create a
larger sense of beauty and wonder. This book will
appeal to anyone who loves the Hamptons, art, or
photography.
Melbourne is a stately European-style city that
emanates elegance and charm. The city’s laneways
are filled with surprises, and the generous
parklands and wide boulevards make for an
enjoyable afternoon stroll. The city’s vibrant café
culture and sartorial splendour add to this
European sensibility. Capturing the essence of
Melbourne is a challenge. Many of the city’s
unique places are difficult to find, often
discovered by word of mouth or simply by getting
lost. Rather than try and list every great place and
every ‘local’, this book focuses on a few of the
most fascinating areas and their attractions.
This book trails two very successful books in the
series, Paris Secrets, ISBN: 9781864703085, and
Rome Secrets, ISBN: 9781864705225. This latest
volume is a modern guide for the urban aesthete
- it’s perfect for those who are already in love
with Melbourne, or those planning a memorable
first visit - it is both a beautifully illustrated travel
resource and a love letter to the city that captures
Melbourne’s unique history and atmosphere in
spectacular detail.

Le Cinq
Irish single pot still whiskey has a romantic
mystique for many whiskey critics because of its
tragic history as the lost sister of single malt
scotch. Ireland’s history and politics resulted in
the near-annihilation of the national drink and
there's an almost eerie beauty to the silent
distilleries that still dot the Irish countryside.
These distilleries inform the aesthetic of the title
and, indeed, there is visual poetry in the barrels,
pot stills and photogenic amber spirits that
convey the Irish whiskey world.
Restaurant of the Hotel George V, Paris
Recipes by Chef Éric Briffard, texts by Chihiro Masui,
photographs by Richard Haughton
Located just a few steps away from the Champs-Elysées, Four Seasons Hotel George
V, Paris, redefines luxury in the City of Light. The most prestigious palace hotel in
Paris, the George V has also earned the illustrious title of The World’s Best Hotel. The
restaurant Le Cinq , awarded two Michelin stars, is the jewel in the crown of the
George V. Picked by an international panel as the World’s Best Hotel Restaurant, the
cuisine and service at Le Cinq is unrivalled.
Although Irish whiskey is currently the fastestgrowing global spirits category and Irish pure pot
still has long been a favourite drink among
whiskey critics and connoisseurs, the existing
literature is still surprisingly sparse. This book
illustrates the production, history, and
appreciation of Irish pot still whiskey and will
introduce casual drinkers to the richness of these
whiskeys as well as being a collector’s item for
established whiskey connoisseurs.
With this book you can compose the best
Japanese dishes all by yourself. The Japanese
kitchen is healthy, easy to prepare and, above all,
very tasty. Ivan Verhelle, the chef from acclaimed
Japanese restaurant Tanuki prepares the most
delicious sushi, sashimi, soup, tempura dishes,
teppanyaki... and explains how you can prepare
them yourself. Excellent photography by Kris
Vlegels and Japanese calligraphy add a touch of
oriental flavour to the layout of the book.
Le Cinq pays tribute to the very best recipes and affords you the opportunity to
experience the immense talent, creativity and incomparable technical mastery of Chef
Éric Briffard.

A weight loss operation is not an end point. It is
a starting point for a solution to obesity. And it is
not just about losing weight. It is also about
restoring the health of obese patients to a normal
level. To achieve this, it is important that the
patient works together with the medical team
during the follow-up period after the surgery,
constantly monitoring what he/she does, with the
help and support of the people around them. It is
for this reason that Professor Kristel De
Vogelaere, a specialist in weight loss surgery, has
now written this cookbook. It is not another
boring diet book, but an inspirational and
beautifully illustrated guide to good eating, in
which she makes delicious, classic recipes that are
ideal for patients after weight loss surgery. In fact,
these simple, tasty and healthy dishes are good
for everyone: your family and friends will love
them as well!
Roberto Payer is the ambassador of the Italian cucina in the Netherlands, and in
conversation with cookery book expert Jonah Freud he acquaints you with the various
Italian regions where the ingredients for the recipes and the wines to accompany the
dishes come from.
At Roberto’s Amsterdam, Roberto Payer is the ‘godfather’ of the restaurant, and the
pure and mouth-watering food is cooked by the team led by head chef Franz Conde.
Conde’s recipes are accompanied by wine tips, and a great deal of attention is paid to
the purity of the ingredients. The book of course contains recipes for soups (zuppe),
starters (antipasti), pastas and risottos (primi), main courses of fish and meat (secondi)
and side dishes (contorni), together with information about cheeses, ice cream and
granita.
Each recipe is easily made at home, and the wonderful photography by Jan Bartelsman
will inspire you to get cooking straight away.

The warm encounter of the classical and the
modern, authenticity and luxury, defines the
Flamant signature. Classical forms, natural
materials and craftsmanship are combined and
form a modern design. This philosophy forms the
base of their international recognition and
popularity. This prestigious book shows the
diversity of styles Flamant has to offer, from
classic and rustic to vintage and contemporary
city design.
Flamant is one of the most respected Belgian
interior companies with a 30 year history. Since
2007 they have continuously been a royal warrant
holder for the Belgian royal family.
People have been collecting things for centuries.
Whether it’s something precious, or simply
things that recall childhood memories, collections
can turn a hobby into a lifetime obsession.
Eclectic Collections looks at a number of great
collections: contemporary art, vintage fashion,
wallpapers, ceramics, contemporary jewellery, and
even rare and fine books. Some collectors have
customised their spaces at home to accommodate
their collections, while others have transformed
their abodes into warehouses. A collector of
designer hats even resorted to the bathtub to
accommodate her collection. This book not only
showcases great collections but draws out the
collector’s personality and their ‘hunt’ for the next
piece in their extraordinary ‘puzzles,’ each
acquisition shedding new light on these
impressive collections.
Bart Kiggen and Magali Elali visited florist Mark
Colle, interior photographer Martyn Thompson
and fashion designer Christian Wijnants among
many others. During their visits, the duo
photographed these people’s homes, focusing
specifically on the presence of plants. The
residents discuss their passion for plants, flowers
and greenery in the fascinating accompanying
text.
The book also contains a handy index listing all
the plants featured in the photographs, including
their specific characteristics.

Presenting an eclectic collection of the most contemporary, Yummy! Restaurant and

Within busy cities, these spaces provide the opportunity to escape for a while; in their
simple and uncomplicated design, they engender a sense of peace and tranquillity and
focus attention on the private rather than the public individual.
This book collects a wide variety of bars and restaurants with strong individual styles:
they can be renovated cinemas and old industrial buildings; they can highlight the

As the size of our homes becomes progressively
smaller, we increasingly seek design solutions that
integrate multiple functions within a single
welcoming and cosy space. Within these pages you
will also find design ideas for outdoor spaces such as
balconies, terraces, courtyards and even roofs. We will
show you how to get the best out of your home,
revealing the ultimate tips and tricks that will ensure
that it is as contemporary and welcoming as possible.
The micro-home is the kind of residence that is
witnessing the steepest growth in 21st-century cities
and synthesises the best traits of today’s architecture:
functionality and efficiency. This book contains home
designs measuring 20 to 89 m² (215 to 958 sq ft),
making it a visual guide to the most noteworthy
compact homes on the international scene. A
showcase of the best in contemporary compact
residential architecture.
Decorating interiors can seem an impossible task
when you have to work with a limited budget.
However, with ingenuity, creativity, and a few tricks,
you can change the look of a home on the cheap.
Tricks and tips on how to decorate one room at a
time, inventing and creating accessories and
adornments, and recycling furniture help to keep the
budget within the original set limits can all be found
in this book. This book will show you that money
does not make the difference when style is on the go!
Minimalist Decor brings together the best examples of
minimalist construction and design, all of which were
created by the most prestigious architects and
designers in the world. A chapter is also dedicated to
current minimalist products focusing on all types of
furniture, accessories, lighting and technology.
Architects and interior designers describe each
project, starting with a summary that brings out the
most important characteristics of design and
architecture.
From time immemorial, outdoor spaces have been
essential parts of a house. Today, most homes have
outdoor spaces that their owners can use for the
activities they find most agreeable and interesting. It
is also increasingly common in large cities for
skyscrapers to be topped by spectacular roof gardens
or adorned with balconies that can be used to escape
and forget the hustle and bustle of the metropolis
and that add greenery to a grey horizon. This book is
a source of inspiration.
This book invites you to take a tour around a variety
of Zen houses. Whether they are large or small, loud
or understated, or designed for an Eastern or
Western lifestyle, all have done away with the
superfluous and opened themselves up to purity and
balance. Located in distinctive locations such as
Japan, Bali and Ibiza, the homes within these pages
will transport you to a place where life is quieter,
simpler and altogether more pleasant, while
providing you with plenty of ideas about how to
achieve the same within your home.

28 GARDENS & FLORAL DESIGN
Japanese gardens (niwa) are the distinctive
Japanese landscape category, which derives from
the aesthetic and philosophical ideas in the east,
and closely relate to local religious and cultural
rituals. Represented by the dry gardens, tea
gardens and stroll gardens, Japanese gardens are
designed as the miniaturisation and abstraction
of natural landscape, taking the naturalistic
approach to draw the garden space into certain
spiritual fields. Japanese garden design is also
open to modern design adaptations. For
landscape designers, the study of Japanese
gardens provides both classical reviews as
research reference and novel landscape elements
which could be taken into modern landscape
design practice. This book collects remarkable
Japanese garden design projects, which might
inspire the designers for more discoveries and
creations.
Green roofs - the ultimate in sustainable building
practices - continue to generate enormous
interest and enthusiasm among architects,
landscape designers, and urban planners. This
richly illustrated book provides a comprehensive
guide to contemporary trends in rooftop garden
design, and provides definitive theory and design
industry knowledge. The designers of the project
case studies are leaders in their fields, and are
drawn from across Australia, Chile, China,
Europe, Japan, Mexico, Philippines, Scandinavia,
Thailand, United Kingdom, United States, and
Vietnam. The designers provide details on the
benefits of their rooftop gardens, offering readers
profound inspiration and informative reviews of
the work, design considerations, operation and
maintenance. This book is essential for anyone
working or studying in the rooftop construction,
environmental landscape and design fields.
Floral design is more than simple arrangements
of flowers; it is the art integrating design and
aesthetics. Arrangements are put together for a
variety of reasons and events - weddings funerals,
banquets, ceremonies, home decoration… the list
is almost endless.

published by ACC Editions. See pages 1 and 31 for full details.
This brilliant new book captures the youth, the
times and the spirit of The Rolling Stones’
formative early years. Documenting 1963-1965
were two young photographers just starting out
in their careers. Terry O’Neill, aged just 25, had a
few years’ experience photographing musicians
and knew that this group had the same magic as
another British phenomenon that just recently
started to chart, The Beatles. As the band was
starting to record and tour, Gered Mankowitz
came along. His first shoot was so fruitful, Gered
was asked to tag along on tour to America.
Between these two legendary photographers, they
document the band’s beginnings and these
indelible images are forever placed in music’s
consciousness. The photography throughout this
book is embellished with various memories and
interviews, celebrating the early days and giving
an insight into what it must have felt like to go
from a small club in Soho with no record deal to
touring the world a few years later with a number
one record.
After the huge success of Martin HM Schreiber’s
Madonna Nudes in the 1990s the new edition
Madonna Nudes II features many recently
discovered and never-before published photos of
Madonna, along with a selection of the best
images published in Madonna Nudes 1979
edition. This book is a perfect gift not only for
Madonna fans, but for lovers of photography too.
The product of a unique, almost 20-year artistic
collaboration between two stars in their
respective fields, the actor and cultural icon John
Malkovich and the photographer Sandro Miller,
The Malkovich Sessions represents a profound
meeting of the minds. The centrepiece of this
stunning book is ‘Homage’, a series of 32 images
that recreate the iconic works of photographers
whose work inspired and influenced Miller, from
Edward Curtis to Diane Arbus to Irving Penn to
Annie Leibovitz. Malkovich’s astonishing ability
to channel others combines with Miller’s
technical mastery to produce images that
transcend and amplify the originals, while
creating something new and exciting in
themselves. Bracketed by Miller’s brilliant
portraits of Malkovich as Malkovich, along with
still work from a series of short films that the two
made together, The Malkovich Sessions is a
marvellous record of friendship and inspiration.

In Love with Photography
HER is a collection of photographic portrayals of
women that explores the roles of women in the
modern world. Photographer Marjorie Salvaterra
creates strikingly beautiful images that make us
rethink our expectations of women and our
notions of femininity, particularly in light of the
drive to achieve perfection, both physically and in
terms of accomplishments. Playing with the
conventions of fashion photography, art cinema,
pop culture, and advertising imagery, Salvaterra
has created photographs that are provocative (and
often humorous) explorations of the female
image. Exploring the beauty and struggle of
being a woman today, this is a book that is by
turns, surprising, inspiring, and amusing, and one
that women of every age will find resonant.
Part memoir and part homage, My Elizabeth
offers rare insight into a woman adored by
millions but truly known to only a few. As a
young man, then-unknown photographer Firooz
Zahedi fell under Elizabeth Taylor’s spell; they
became lifelong friends, and the relationship
changed his life. In My Elizabeth, the nowcelebrated Zahedi shares with readers his
unforgettable photographs of Elizabeth,
presenting a loving tribute in words and images
to this iconic Hollywood legend.
Volker Hinz, Peter-Matthias Gaede, edited by Lois
Lammerhuber
In Love With Photography is a unique treasure in the history of photography, lifted
from the archives of Volker Hinz, one of the most important and indefatigable
photographers of our time. A treasure, amassed in almost 50 years by a passionate
collector of portraits and presented here for the first time. Volker Hinz photographed
those who normally remain hidden behind their cameras. Whenever and wherever he
encountered them: at work, at home, in public or private moments. This is how a
unique collection of the most renowned photographers of the second half of the 20th
and the early 21st centuries came about.

This edition is limited to a print run of just 100
copies; each clamshell-boxed book includes a
signed and numbered print. This collector’s item
is truly a glorious tribute to a woman adored by
millions but truly known to just a few.
Published to accompany an exhibition at the
Science Museum, London, in spring 2016, this
catalogue features 100 high-quality reproductions
of Talbot’s work. Through two introductory
essays, the book examines how Talbot’s invention
of photography in the 1830s, evolved to establish
the artistic, scientific and industrial possibilities
for photography. Shadow Play is a testament to
Talbot’s magical and industrial visions for his
invention, that range from the delicate capture of
natural specimens to more staged and functional
ambitions for photography as means of mass
production. It will be of interest to the art
enthusiast and general historian of nineteenthcentury innovation, as well as to all those curious
to learn more about this pioneer of photography.
“Using their distinctive brand of aerial photography, Oliver Kröning and Dennis Orel turn
Mallorca’s sun-worshippers into works of art.”
The Sunday Times Magazine
50,000 hotel beds, 50 discos, 15 balnearios and six kilometres of beach - all of this is
El Arenal in Mallorca, prompting Oliver Kröning and Dennis Orel to take a closer
look at it from a photographic perspective. The result is a continuous view of the
popular stretch of beach from a bird’s-eye perspective, with a fascinating wealth of
detail from an unusual point of view. Long before the emergence of drones, the
award-winning photography duo photographed the beach, with their camera
appearing to hover above the masses of people. Technically sophisticated panoramas
have been composed of countless individual images.

Lisl Steiner is a world traveller, she sketches, she is a
poet, and a muse to some. At the age of 88 she became
a YouTube success with more than 400,000 hits: Society
is Kaput & Other Truths From an Ageless Spirit. In this
book she gathers her photographs in a kind of
retrospective, pictures of Armstrong, Carter, Castro,
Davis, Eisenhower, Ellington, JFK, Mailer, Nixon, Pele,
B.B. King and Martin Luther King. Her drawings and
her life story complement the photographs. Steiner’s
account of her life is colourful to the maximum.
There are 45 million widows living in India. Not so
long ago, in some regions, a widow was expected to
die with her dead husband on the pyre. While this is
a thing of the past, widows still suffer from severe
discrimination for the rest of their lives. Two years
ago, Indian social reformer Dr Bindeshwar Pathak
decided to face the challenge of counteracting these
deep-rooted ideas. In Ghost Street, New Delhi, he
opened a house for widows where they may find a
new meaning for their lives.
In this book multi-award winning artist Alice Smeets
interprets traditional tarot cards through the art of
photography. The scenes are inspired by the Rider
Waite Tarot Deck, designed in 1919, and were
recreated with a group of Haitian artists, the Atis
Rezistans collective, in the ghettos of Haiti. The
traditional symbolism of 78 tarot cards is transformed
into timeless images.
Florian Müller photographs fetishists; people who
dress up as dogs or let themselves be bound and hung
from the ceiling. It is their way of relaxing and
achieving fulfilment. At first sight what you see is
masquerade; behind the masquerade lurks stories of
people and their needs. Florian Müller worked on
fetishism in Germany for several years. Sometimes it
took weeks before the people trusted him and let him
in on their sessions. He did not abuse their trust. His
pictures are not revolting, but close, almost tender.
Photography Inc., is the comprehensive catalogue
based on the FotoMuseum’s Autumn exhibition with
the same name, in Antwerp. The book charts the
history of photography, from the perspective of the
photography industry, with pictures, cameras and
albums from the FoMu collection. This book focuses
on a number of milestones in the history of
photography, and upon the influence companies such
as Gevaert, Agfa, Kodak, Polaroid etc. have had on
the approach of both amateur and professional
photographers.
Custodians brings together for the first time images of
many of Oxford’s most prestigious buildings along
with some rarely seen, but wonderful venues and their
‘Custodians’. Photographer Joanna Vestey set out to
explore the extraordinary colleges and buildings of
Oxford, behind the closed doors, often beyond the
reach of the 9.5 million visitors a year who come here,
and to meet the ‘Custodians’ playing a pivotal role in
perpetuating these world renowned institutions.

Photo journalism plays an important role in
public life: providing accurate, contextualised
information through images. When the camera
lens focuses on the most harrowing realities, the
photographer becomes the link transmitting the
subjects’ pain to all other people, thereby in a
certain way becoming a spotlight taking some of
the darkest sides of humanity out of the shadows.
Upfront, both book and exhibition, was created
precisely at a time when photo journalists in
Spain and Latin America had begun to play an
increasingly important role in the world. This
book delves further into the work of twenty-three
photo reporters from Latin America and Spain,
not only the most highly acknowledged, but also
others who, though having left behind a more
modest mark and theories using more limited
means, have helped to keep their colleagues’
commitment and excellence alive.
Iconocracia uses photography to bring together
approximately thirty creators of Cuban art from
several generations who, despite their wideranging differences in biography, aesthetics and
even politics, coincide in challenging what has
been assimilated as Cuban photography and
disseminated as such.The book is a collection of
work by a series of artists who have managed to
take in and process iconography with the
steadfast goal of building, more than just an
image, but a different imagery altogether from
their individual positions and particular
viewpoints. However, it also explores the very
limits of photography as an act: the text by Iván
de la Nuez seeks to find a location other than the
photographer’s stance, radically stirring up what
is usually considered to be a photographic object.
In Los Angeles County there are more than
seven million registered vehicles. Everybody
knows about highway traffic here. But where do
all those cars go to rest? Gerd Ludwig is a night
owl and doesn’t need much sleep, so he
sometimes goes out at night to photograph
sleeping cars. His chosen cars are loners. They
command their own space. They are not crowded
in with others to have a presence. After a while
he recognises their sleeping patterns. The cars in
this project are photographed as he finds them.
Their covers are like nightgowns, though some
sleep in the nude. Some take daytime naps and a
few lucky ones get to sleep together. Occasionally
proud car owners ask him if he wants them to
move or uncover the car for the photograph, but,
Ludwig says, “I generally don’t like them to disturb
the cars in their sleep”.

Since 2011, award-winning photographer Titus
Simoens has been working on a series of pictures of
school pupils under strict regimes. His work is
divided into three sets: Blue, See shows young people
at the IBIS naval college in Ostend. The photo series
Mount Song shows students at a Chinese kung fu
school. The last part, Los Domadores, is set in a boxing
school in Cuba.
Gert Verbelen is a young photographer and designer.
For his Master’s project, he visited the
mathematically calculated centres of the 18 countries
of the Eurozone. Going there, he ended up in the
middle of people’s daily lives; he avoided tourism and
went to villages where no young people live anymore,
because there is no work for them. Verbelens photodocumentary shows a lot of sadness and loneliness,
while at the same time, displaying the power of little
communities and an affection for the place.
Marcel Gautherot (1910-96) is regarded as one of the
most significant French photographers. Yet his work
is relatively little known and even less published. The
most famous part of his work is the body of some
3,000 images documenting the construction of
Brasilia 1958-1960. This the first ever comprehensive
book on Gautherot’s work as a photographer. The
images are complemented by essays on his affinity for
modern architecture, his contribution to the history
of photography, and on his attachment to Brazil.
Indonesia, a country spread over some 17,500 islands;
home of the world’s largest fleet of ships and boats;
with 252m people. Beat Presser, Swiss-born
photographer, travelled the Indonesian archipelago in
2012 and 2014. He went from place to place, from
island to island, from adventure to adventure. He
took photographs and notes and talked to the local
people. From a wealth of experiences and memoirs of
his journeys around this vast, astonishing country,
Presser has made this unique book .
Reginald Van de Velde’s Between Nowhere & Never
shows the past splendour of derelict hospitals,
mothballed monasteries, defunct power stations,
crumbling castles and many other dormant
structures. As a devoted traveller, he journeys into
forsaken places all over the world, trying to capture
the momentum of a fragile abandonment - the result
of an intangible desire to explore what mankind has
left behind. With the reverb of time as a vantage
point, this book will take you on a journey to places
that exist between nowhere and never.
Ukraine Series by Johanna Diehl shows sensitive, yet
unsparing photographs of former synagogues in the
territory of what is now Ukraine. Partially destroyed
during the German occupation, the buildings were
completely repurposed during the Soviet era: as auto
repair shops, vinegar factories, clinics, cinemas,
sewing workshops, gymnasiums, or KGB prisons.
Sometimes, a bricked-up Torah niche, or a historical
ceiling mural hint at the richly religious life that
blossomed in these spaces for centuries. The
photographs are enriched by very personal literary
texts by Juri Andruchovytch, Ukraine’s most
renowned author today.

Speed, colour, noise, excitement. Art Of The Race,
V14 encapsulates the very essence of Formula 1
motor racing through the lens of Darren Heath,
one of the sport’s most celebrated photographers.
Art Of The Race captures the key moments and
rarely seen footage of each race as the season
unfolds, whether it’s the epic battle between
McLaren teammates Hamilton and Rosberg, or
the humbling drivers’ gathering in support of
their colleague Jules Bianchi.
Darren Heath has been photographing Formula
1 for over 25 years. For 21 of these years he has
worked freelance, and this has given him a
unique perspective on the complex and exciting
world of Formula 1. Darren Heath’s photography
in Art Of The Race encapsulates the very essence
of the speed, noise, excitement and colour of
Formula 1 racing, whilst also highlighting the key
moments of each race as the season unfolds,
whether it’s Lewis Hamilton joining the greats of
the sport winning his third F1 title, or the
emergence of the exciting 17 year old prospect
Max Verstappen, the youngest driver to ever start
a World Championship race.
In this exquisitely executed paean to the horse,
celebrated photographer Bob Tabor celebrates
the magnificence of the equine physique and the
beauty of the horse’s nature. His images are
evocative and intimate, so perfectly presented
that we seem to feel the sinewy tension of the
animals’ muscles and the sleek satin of their hair.
Each photograph is a marvel in itself, arousing
awe, tenderness, and sometimes amusement; and
every viewing brings us closer to understanding
the emotional bond and powerful connection
between horse and human.
It did not take long for Les Voiles de St-Barth to
become a must-attend event in the Caribbean
yachting season. It attracts the best sailors, often
involved in the most prestigious international
sailing circuits such as the America’s Cup or the
Olympics, including Loïck Peyron, Lionel Péan,
Bruno Troublé, Ken Read, Peter Holmberg, Cam
Lewis and Terry Hutchinson, to name just a few.
The fleet has grown bigger year after year, with
more and more Maxis and multihulls entering
the competition. These big, fast boats are often
involved in the other major regattas in the
Caribbean.

Over the years since its inception in 1875,
Liberty’s has both been at the forefront of
fashion and the decorative arts and has sat
comfortably riding on its waves. The 1950s were
a frugal time and any retailer who promoted
modern design was taking a risk. In truth, Liberty
& Co. probably played it safe, running its modern
products alongside the more traditional ones. It is
perhaps for this reason that Liberty & Co. is not
so prominent in people’s memories as a ‘modern’
store in the 1950s. In a way this was a period that
prepared the business for its flowering in the
1960s. Almost overnight, the emporium of
traditional style found itself at the very epicentre
of the world of fashion: Carnaby Street in the
‘60s.

Allude is one of Germany’s most illustrious
labels. Since it was founded in 1993 by Andrea
Karg, the company has been a key element in
establishing the popularity of cashmere
combining it with new designs and reaching out
to a new clientele. This exceptional book
introduces cashmere with its special history and
the handiwork that is involved, using beautiful
pictures together with a sound and
comprehensive text. In addition, Allude together
with the designs and the people behind this label
are introduced. It is here that we hear the story of
the creative process from design to the finished
product, visiting fashion shows in Paris and
seeing the development of the label over several
years by means of a sumptuous world of images.

how she shaped her life and career. How can we
use what she does and how she does it in our
lives? The honest story of Elise gives us the
answer. Moreover we get a previously unseen

42 ARCHITECTURE
Encompassing two thousand years of building
history, The Architecture Reader includes 40 key
texts from Alberti, Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier,
Gropius, Venturi, Gehry, and many more. The
writings address persistent concerns in
architecture and design, including the role of the
architect and the relationship of architecture to
nature, art, and science. The carefully chosen
texts provide a taste of the multiplicity that
characterises historical and contemporary views
of architecture. Krista Sykes organises the
selections chronologically and introduces each
with a helpful commentary, contextualising the
author and the salient issues covered in the piece.
The excerpts appear in a variety of formats,
including interviews, manifestos, lectures and
treatises, and are representative of the varied
sometimes conflicting approaches to building and

Architects’ Homes
Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) was a master of
the knowledge of his time. He drafted The
Declaration of Independence (1776), and thus
founded a new view of the proper relation
between governed and government. Jefferson was
the architect of the new America, not just in a
political sense, but in a literal sense as well. A
self-taught architect, Jefferson buildings are
amongst America’s most famous: Monticello, the
Virginia State Capitol and the University of
Virginia are the starting points of American
classical architecture.

Jefferson was guided by his admiration for
Palladio’s Four Books on Architecture, which
provided him with key architectural forms and
ideas. Palladio showed him how the admired
building types of the ancient Romans could be
adapted to modern purposes and provide a
rational, harmonious framework for living and
for building a new society.
From the medieval period to the nineteenth
century, Lucca was a rural retreat for the Tuscan
aristocracy, the elite manufacturing dynasties who
had made their fortunes largely from the silk
trade. Seeking to refresh their spirits in the cooler
air of the valley, they built magnificent country
houses here, mirroring their wealth in the
sumptuous beauty and opulence of their villas’
architecture and gardens.
Villas of Lucca: The Delights of the Countryside
invites readers to explore the wonders of these
pleasure palaces for the first time, as Maria
Adriana Gusti places the lives of these families
and their villas in their historic, artistic and
cultural context. Richly illustrated throughout,
this is at once a work of scholarly reference and a
glorious invitation to discover some of the less
familiar treasures of the Tuscan countryside.

This stunning book takes a rare glimpse into the
intriguing and unique homes of some of the
world’s best-known architects. How do these
architects design their own private domains?
How do their furnishing styles impact on the
structural integrity of the space? How do these
individuals express their interior design flair in
their own haven? The title starts by introducing
the relationship between the architect and their
professional work, by telling how that marries
with their own private tastes, and how they
interpret current trends and enable their own
philosophies to transfer to their personal, private
environments. Combining rich photography and
spectacular imagery with the personal stories of
these industry professionals, this book provides a
rich source for those keen to delve into the design
aesthetics, concepts and innovations of leaders in
their very own field.
Monteverdi is a village in val d’Orcia, Tuscany.
This book illustrates the extraordinary work of
restoration and transformation that has been
carried out. This medieval village has been saved
from its state of abandon through the care and
sensibility by Ilaria Miani, architect and interior
designer, who has returned it to its original lovely
appearance and supported by Michael L. Cioffi,
an American lawyer who fell in love with Bella
Italia. This love developed while studying the
classics at the University of Notre Dame. Ten
years ago he stepped into the village of
Castiglioncello del Trinoro in Tuscany. Although
the village was dilapidated, he found in her old
bones, perched above the rolling fields of Tuscany,
the story of a rich history, culture and land.
Seduced by this story and propelled by love, he
began to restore and preserve the village, giving
birth to the vision of Monteverdi, now fully
realised, as seen in the pages of this book.
Spaces of Serenity showcases Jeffery S. Poss’ small
structures built for contemplation, meditation,
and peace. These buildings are exquisite examples
of architecture that promotes harmony between
the occupant and the outside environment.
Jeffery S. Poss, FAIA, is a professor at the
University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He
worked with esteemed architecture firms - such
as Skidmore Owings & Merrill - before founding
his own eponymous firm.

In architecture, a facade is the skin of a building.
Eco-Friendly Building Facade demonstrates just
how important this ‘skin’ is by illustrating its
impact on energy efficiency. Sunlight, ventilation,
low energy, noise minimisation, rainwater harvest,
prefabricated components, flexibility, etc., all the
environmental elements are taken into
consideration in the design process and are
illustrated here with sufficiently detailed images,
drawings and articles.

Stylish Living in Small Spaces shows how the
challenges of small floor plans and compact
interiors can be overcome with inventive modern
design solutions and the innovative use of
technology. This is a source of inspiration to those
short of space and resources, but with a thirst for
ingenuity and style.
Upon the release of the 100 of the World’s Tallest
Buildings, the first 100 of the world’s tallest
buildings will be more than 985 feet (300 metres)
for the first time. This book showcases many of
the new tall builds across Asia and the Middle
East, in particular. Compiled by the CTBUH
(Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat),
with insightful introductory essays on key trends
in the skyscraper typology and by renowned tall
buildings expert, Georges Binder, on the history
of the world’s tallest buildings by decade, the
ambitious text provides descriptions of the
buildings’ design and significance. Towering
structures are oftentimes the subject of
admiration only for their sheer height or skyline
silhouette, and oftentimes criticised for their poor
environmental performance. This book aims to
change that impression by showing innovations
that are particular to this group of tall buildings,
in addition to generally good architectural design
and engineering prowess.
Coffee Culture
Coffee Culture: Hot Coffee + Cool Spaces is a
presentation of coffee shops crafting great coffee
in interesting spaces with good design aesthetics.
The author has selected 33 coffee shops located in
cities across the US, including Chicago, Denver,
Los Angeles, Minneapolis, New York,
Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Seattle.
More than a description of the best tall buildings
from around the world, this volume serves as a
global overview of tall building construction and
activity in a given year, highlighting some of the
big achievements in the tall building field,
particularly showing where innovation is
happening.
Design @ Work
The CTBUH’s Awards series draws from the
multi-disciplinary expertise of the practitioners
directly involved in bringing these buildings to
life. This guide is intended for anyone working on
the design and operation of tall buildings at both
the building and urban scales.

Inspiring Concepts for
Contemporary Workspaces
Edited by Gina Tsarouhas
A combination of difficult economic times, a
premium on urban space and the modern trend
for living alone means that living in small spaces
has become a necessity, as much as a choice. But
that needn’t mean living in cramped,
unimaginative spaces.
Photos by an eclectic group of photographers
captures the feel and personality of each coffee
shop. The concept of space is often extended
from the shop interior to the neighbourhood interweaving coffee, art, architecture, design, and
historic preservation. The book showcases coffee
shops located in historic buildings, modern
architecture, an art museum, an arcade, a
courtyard, a former loading dock and even a
reclaimed cargo shipping container - but the
common thread is an appreciation for great coffee
in spaces that invite human interaction and create
memories through good design.
Engaging and richly illustrated, this book
showcases high-calibre international projects that
reveal compelling, contemporary and
unconventional workspaces, particularly spaces
that redefine where we work and how we work
together, and which promote new forms of work,
flexibility, creativity and collaboration.
Combining rich photography with in-depth
descriptions and detailed floor plans, this book
helps to illustrate architectural innovation and
interior design and how these considerations
impact on work culture, be it in unique studio
locations to modern office skyscrapers, from work
nests and industrious modern activity hives, to
warehouse lofts and factory refits, or anything inbetween.

Washington, DC-area architect Robert M. Gurney,
FAIA, designs ecologically aware modern homes
using natural materials and varied construction
methods. This book features photography and
drawings of more than a dozen of Gurney’s most
recent projects. Gurney is dedicated to design of
modern, meticulously detailed, thoughtfully ordered
residential and commercial projects sensitive to site,
program and budget. Materials are employed with
honesty, integrity and ecological awareness.
This monograph focuses on Enrique Browne, a
talented and prolific Chilean architect and co-founder
of Browne & Swett Arquitectos. It delves into
Browne’s processes, such as developing variations of
the grapevinestructure typology to create a green skin
as a green wall (or roof ), to protect dwellings from
the region’s strong sun; or combining vegetation and
its oxygenation benefits with building to counter
pollution; or using both artificial and natural light as
a ‘material’ for illuminating spaces or volume.

Werner Sobek is one of the leading engineers and
structural designers of our time. His works have been
awarded numerous distinctions and enjoy worldwide
the highest reputation. They all excel through their
high level of sophistication and innovation, both with
regard to materials and structural systems. This book
presents a sample of the most important projects in
the fields of design, materials, skins and structures.
Corporate Museums
As an architect and consulting engineer, Werner
Sobek has spent many years creating prize-winning
experimental buildings to examine how new
materials, structures and technologies can radically
change our built environment. The single-family
houses he has designed (such as R128, H16, Y1 and
B10) have set new benchmarks with regard to both
technology and aesthetics. This book presents the
most important examples of his work from the last
two decades.
The Active House B10 is situated in the heart of the
famous Weissenhof estate in Stuttgart. It is a research
project exploring how innovative materials,
constructions and technologies can sustainably
improve our built environment. Owing to an
ingenious energy concept and self-learning home
automation the building produces twice its energy
requirement. The surplus thus gained powers two
electric cars and an adjacent building. Based on
award-winning experimental buildings such as R128,
H16, F87 and now B10 Werner Sobek analyses how
new materials, structures and technologies can
radically change our built environment.

This book is the first to present the entire
development of corporate architecture to date,
showing the strategies available and the best
architectural and design concepts. The book
presents milestones of 20th-century corporate
architecture and provides photos illustrating the
latest trends. This work gives both designers and
corporations a point of reference for integrating
and transforming the architectural aspect of
corporate design in their work. It will appeal not
only to an audience interested in architecture but
also to corporations with designs on their own
buildings, as well as developers and architects,
and designers in related fields such as advertising,
marketing and visual communication.
Today, well-designed spaces are essential for
every company. They have an inside and an
outside effect and create interaction between
employees and customers. The better they feel,
the more emotional the connection to the
company and the brand can be. As a result, the
importance of corporate interiors as a marketing
tool is rapidly increasing. This book on the basics
of corporate design shows the most important
premises for the conception of interiors and gives
a general overview of the topic with more than
100 examples. It contains detailed presentations
including plans and projects in the following
fields: retail/shop/stores, hotels/gastronomy/
leisure/education, office and manufacturing.
Thanks to their outstanding architecture, visionary
exhibitions and important collections corporate
museums have evolved into crowd pullers of
international renown. The 30 concepts that are
presented here range from conventional product
shows to themed environments and presentations
of art and culture with the company in the role of
a patron. This book introduces top-class
international projects. Articles by experts from
the fields of history management, scenography,
marketing and project development give insights
into the conception of the content, the
implementation of the design and the running of
the museum as a business. At the same time, it is
a vivid source of inspiration for potential visitors.
The term ‘Media Facades’ is most often associated
with screens, animations, illuminations etc. on the
front of buildings - often used as advertisements,
or to convey messages. The in-depth reference
work Media Facades - History, Technology and
Content asks vital questions: what developments
have there been in the last three years? Which
kind of media facade has established itself? How
can media facades be integrated into today’s often
‘curvaceous’ architecture and urban landscape?
These are just some of the questions that are
examined by looking at around 35 examples,
supplemented by interviews with early
protagonists from this field, scientists, journalists,
product developers and many more. New trends,
directions and technologies are discussed and the
important topic of sustainability is not forgotten
either.

Current design modes of student residences are
facing challenges of both philosophy and form.
Past approaches no longer sustain new demands
and require innovative thinking. The need for a
new outlook is propelled by fundamental changes
that touch upon environmental, economic, and
social factors.
Thinking innovatively about university
accommodation led to the idea to write
Innovative Student Residences. The author offers a
fascinating insight into contemporary design
concepts and illustrates them with outstanding
examples, showcased by full-colour photography
and detailed plans.
Trade is subject to rapid change at the Point of
Sale: the massive growth rates of virtual trading
platforms are changing buying patterns in an
epochal manner. This is why in recent years
significant sums have been invested in
sophisticated architecture for supermarkets and
shopping centres. This book provides an expert
overview of developments in different dimensions
of international retail architecture - from
innovative supermarkets to new concepts in the
trading sector. Expert contributions and
interviews provide background knowledge about
conception, planning, execution and operation.
This book is a practical guide with excellent
examples.
High-quality play space design is imperative in
helping to attract children and families. Good
design is a good investment - poor quality or
unimaginative spaces will not be attractive to
children; the play space may not be valued by the
local community and may fall into disuse and
disrepair. This book examines key drivers in best
play space designs, showcasing an international
range of projects divided into three major case
study themes: play spaces in parks, communities
and schools, with each case study illuminated by
informative narrative text descriptions, and
accompanied by rich, full-colour photography,
detailed diagrams and illustrations.
Almost all architecture is designed on
commission for a client. And the architect’s
design must always bend to the wishes or
demands of that client. The situation is turned on
its head, however, when the architect becomes
their own client when building, renovating or
redecorating their own home... All of a sudden,
the architect has the freedom to give full
expression to his/her vision on living and the
humble home is transformed into something of a
calling card. This book contains many such
‘calling cards’ - extensive reports on lofts, houses,
and apartments where Belgian architects live.
Each report is accompanied by a text in which
the architect expounds his/her own vision on
architecture.

Stuttgart-based 4a Architekten have gained much
recognition especially for their public swimming
pools and spas. Yet the firm, established in 1990 by
Matthias Burkart, Eberhard Pritzer, Alexander von
Salmuth, and Ernst Ulrich Tillmanns, has also
created a formidable body of cultural and educational
buildings, hotels, and housing. This new monograph
features 17 realised projects. Richly illustrated with
images and plans, the book also demonstrates the
development of the firm’s architectural language. Two
essays take a look at their working process and
history. The book is completed with a catalogue of all
their built and unrealised projects.
Le Corbusier (1887-1965) is one the most influential
architects of the 20th century. In the Scandinavian
countries, his influence is arguably most pronounced
in the writings and art of the Danish experimentalist
Asger Jorn (1914-1973). What Moves Us? focuses
specifically on the reception of Le Corbusier in
Scandinavia, with the relationship between Jorn and
Le Corbusier as a thematic thread. The book
highlights the architect’s change of direction and his
influence on the young artist. The book’s contributors
explore the relationships that emerged among their
artistic theories and practices, including Jorn’s later
critique of Le Corbusier.
This highly anticipated new monograph delves into
an exciting selection of esteemed works by Delhibased firm Morphogenesis, a world-leader in zero net
energy and sustainable design. This richly illustrated
book combines stunning imagery with a
comprehensive study outlining the firm’s strong
philosophical design intent across a vast range of
typologies: residential; institutional; commercial;
hospitality; offices; houses; interiors; public and
master planning. This volume is a superb example of
an engaged, highly principled and vibrant emerging
architectural practice in Asia that is defining a global
architectural brand.
Aesthetics and functionality determine the
architectural language of the buildings of Alexander
Brenner. Following the success of his first book, the
multi-award winning architect from Stuttgart is now
publishing a second volume with new houses and
villas from between 2010 and 2015.
The projects described here are illustrated with
informative texts and stunning photographs. This is
an inspirational book for architects and developers.
Timeless Resorts is the first major monograph of the
multidisciplinary design practice Stapati, established
by Ar.Tony Joseph. This book examines the evolution
of 11 captivating hospitality projects, where Stapati’s
philosophy of creating Timeless Architecture, by
reinterpreting the vernacular for contemporary living
is expounded. The projects spread across India and
the Seychelles demonstrate a sensitive understanding
of the context and culture, with the site forming the
major generator, to develop narratives and
experiences that transcend time and place.

This new book presents the results of a unique
research project on four significant buildings from
the post-war modernist era in Vienna. It offers a
fresh view of modernist architecture from today’s
perspective. Arranged by keywords derived from the
featured projects, Big! Bad? Modern: provides easy
access to the rich and comprehensive collection of
materials and manifold positions, and opens up new
perspectives.
DEMO:POLIS is a sociological and urbanist
research undertaking examining what ‘public space’
means today. The project has resulted in this new
book. It features a vast range of exemplary public
spaces and presents controversial artistic and urban
design interventions that demonstrate protests
against and criticisms of the status quo. Richly
illustrated, it also presents various artistic and
scientific approaches and working principles, offering
manifold design options for the public space.
During the last decade increasing attention has been
drawn to Iceland. Its particular geology with around
30 active volcanoes and thousands of the famous
geysers also holds substantial energy resources
including oil. Consequently Iceland has been
increasingly targeted for industrial development.
Icelandic Lessons presents the results of the latest

Thomas Balsley
Shanghai Tower tells the story of
the making of China’s tallest
building, the 632-metre-tall
centrepiece of the city’s Lujiazui
commercial district. This visually
driven volume captures the
emotion and spirit of a tower that
is transformative in nature, setting
new precedents for how public
spaces can be integrated
throughout supertall buildings.
Thomas Balsley is a renowned
landscape architect whose NYCbased studio is responsible for
some of the most notable and
richly awarded spaces throughout
the U.S. and Far East. This volume
displays the range of that work
over the past 25 years and attests
to the level of design excellence
that has defined his international
reputation and that of his studio.

ALICE (Atelier de la conception de l’espace) is an
educational laboratory affiliated to the Ecole
Polytéchnique Fédérale de Lausanne’s (EPFL)
School of Architecture. Its objective is to provide
students with the first essential tools for the trade of
architecture. The Invention of Space explores how
space is invented in terms of the various cultural
practices involved with spatial design. The book
concludes with also exploring the spatial conditions
of thought, emotion, fantasy, and imagination.
Iñaki Ábalos and Juan Herreros established their
studio in Madrid in 1984 and worked together until
2006, when the firm was dissolved. The archive of
Ábalos & Herreros was donated to the Canadian
Center for Architecture (CCA) in Montreal in 2012.
This new book presents three contemporary
encounters with the Ábalos & Herreros archive at
CCA. The book reframes these research projects,
showing archival material in its current state and reinterpreting it.
Jan Turnovský (1942-95), born and educated in
Prague, emigrated to Austria in 1966 and worked for
various architectural firms in Vienna. In 1975 he was
appointed as a research and teaching assistant at
Technische Universität Wien’s Institute for
Architecture and Design. His thinking and
intellectual legacy has been influential for an entire
generation of younger Austrian architects. This new
book presents for the first time Turnovský’s
previously unpublished The Weltanschauung as an
Ersatz Gestalt as a facsimile-reprint of his illustrated
and highly original typo-script.

52 ARCHITECTURE
Urban highways are unique windows from which
to grasp a city’s identity. They can however be
responsible for the fragmentation of cities and
the degradation of their adjacent living
environments. As many urban highways are
aging, concerns about their redevelopment,
upgrading or dismantling are emerging in many
cities of the world. By examining the meaning as
well as the opportunities offered by urban
gateway corridors, the book attempts to offer a
unique perspective on issues related this
emerging landscape and transportation issue.
More specifically, the book aims to describe the
innovative approach to landscape infrastructure
planning that was used for the YUL-MTL:
Moving Landscapes initiative held in Montreal.
Nestled in a natural ravine in the Ozark hills, and
designed by internationally renowned architect
Moshe Safdie, Crystal Bridges Museum of
American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas is an
architectural masterpiece. This book tells the
story of the creation of Crystal Bridges: from
concept and an early napkin sketch to the
engineering feats required to construct an art
museum of international stature in the path of a
natural waterway. Featuring new colour
photography of the museum’s striking
architecture paired with quotes from Moshe
Safdie, Art in Architecture showcases a fabulous
new museum.
Almost one billion people live in conditions that
UN-Habitat classifies as slum households. If the
UN numbers hold true, approximately two and a
half billion urban dwellers will be added by 2050.
Many of what UN-Habitat considers slum
households are part of self-built neighbourhoods,
the result of informal occupation and construction.
If two-thirds of our new urbanisation will be
largely the result of people building their own
homes and neighbourhoods outside of formal
planning and processes, and close to one billion
people live in these urban situations now this is
not a fringe phenomenon of urbanisation. It is
mainstream urbanisation, quickly becoming the
majority - and thus the chosen title for this
collection is Metropolis Nonformal.
For nearly three decades, Eric Owen Moss
Architects has been at work transforming the
former industrial area of the Hayden Tract in
Culver City, California into one of the most
highly concentrated centres of architectural
experimentation in the world. Eric Owen Moss
Architects/3585 offers a unique look into the mind
and method of one of the most important
architects working today through a comprehensive
presentation of three schemes designed for a
single site in the Hayden Tract since 1991. The
book traces the intellectual odyssey of Moss’s
forty-year career with a comprehensive
presentation of 25-year process that led to his
recently completed Cactus Tower and Waffle. A
wealth of sketches, drawings, models, renderings,
working drawings, and extensive photographic
documentation provides valuable insight into the
cultural and technical complexities at the heart of
Moss’s provocative architecture.

MAPS Design, founded in 1996, is a global design
practice led by its principals Tan Hock Beng and
Maria Hartati. With offices in Singapore and
Bangkok, the firm’s portfolio has always been
broad based in its geographic breadth. The firm
provides comprehensive architectural and interior
design services for many project types, with a keen
emphasis in hospitality design. It currently has
about 25 high profile hospitality projects ranging
from resorts to urban hotels under way in many
parts of the world, including Singapore, China,
Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, The Philippines,
Taiwan, Tokyo, India, Middle East, Maldives,
Seychelles, Spain, London and Hawaii. The firm
works with luxury hotel brands like W, St Regis,
Sheraton, Park Hyatt, JW Marriott,
Intercontinental and Crowne Plaza. These
projects have been widely published in various
international journals and exhibited in different
countries and venues including Tokyo, Costa Rica,
and the prestigious Venice Biennale in Venice.
The renowned architecture firm of Mauro
Poponcini and Patrick Lootens (representative
projects include Artesis Plantijn Hogeschool near
Park Spoor Noord, Cadiz in Antwerp’s Eilandje
district and the office building near Ghent SintPieters station) celebrates 25 years of
architectural practice in this beautifully designed
and richly documented publication, in a style that
reflects their own: beautifully balanced, clean and
contemporary.
Their many various achievements are featured in
the book, but Mauro Poponcini and Patrick
Lootens also take the time to reflect on
architecture in conversations with five prominent
partners (Filip Canfyn, Bob Van Reeth, Kristiaan
Borret, Bart Verschaffel, Henk Visch), about the
architectural practice in Flanders and various
other themes that they care about.

with this building for the European Council an
architectural masterpiece. Clever in its entirety
and in every detail, in its iconic functions, and in
its decorum, it perfectly reflects the aura of power
that the 28 members of the European Union
share together. In addition to Jean Attali and
Philippe Samyn’s view on the building phases,
this book also includes the overall picture of the

Alexandre Clerc, the young Fribourg architect, and
his team have already produced a notable number of
high-quality buildings: small school buildings, for
instance for the school in St-Cierges VD, which is
placed with great topographic precision, the exciting
ensemble of the vocational school in Domdidier FR
and the cleverly conceived extension to the
multifunctional hall in Sâles FR.
Since 2009, Jürg Berrel, Maurice Berrel and Raphael
Kräutler have managed their own architectural offices
based in Zurich and Basel. An outstanding building
was created for the vocational school in Vouvry VS,
which has a sports hall at its centre. Natural light
shines through the ceiling and onto two surrounding
walkways. Since then, the team has designed a
number of other inventive buildings.
The young Zurich architects Caroline Fiechter and
René Salzmann have already enjoyed a number of
competition successes, including a school building
with a wonderful appearance in Ballwil LU, which
was achieved using red-washed timber. Its expression
skilfully shifts between appropriate nobility and a
warm radiance that is compatible with the world of
children.
Gion A. Caminada has produced architectural work
in Surselva, Grisons that is unique in being directly
determined by the ecological, geographical and
structural engineering premises of the location and
the lifestyles of its population.

54 ARCHITECTURE
Each building by this Geneva-based architectural
team is based on a powerful idea that is often
developed from the eminently urban location. The
idea serves as the basis for sophisticated solutions for
major residential developments, commercial and
administrative buildings and houses that are often
refined into architectural gems with a poetic
appearance.

Following Papers and Papers 2, the third volume in
the series contains papers written by Jonathan
Sergison and Stephen Bates between 2008 and 2014.
Illustrated with photographs and drawings, the
papers focus on some of the themes that are at the
heart of the work of Sergison Bates architects and
their approach to architectural practice, such as
domesticity, typology and density.
Since his first projects in the 1980s, drawings have
always accompanied the architectural work of Peter
Märkli. They are patiently recorded images and
thoughts that occasionally have an associative
relationship with the designs. Often however they are
independent, free notes based on inner images. This
volume compiles a large number of such drawings.
Eight texts by various authors from different cultural
fields and an overview of all drawings produced since
the beginning complement this remarkable
collection.
Buildings by the Geneva architect Pierre-Alain
Dupraz always reveal experimental elements, little
inventions that are refined to produce an aesthetic
overall result. For instance a villa is developed out of a
module of prefabricated garage boxes, or a crèche has
underground rooms aligned around a large interior
courtyard.
In the Upper Valais region, the Lucerne-based
Roman Hutter has produced three stringently
designed wooden buildings since 2010 that are
constructed using a traditional log-building method.
Other competition successes that are still in the
planning phase evoke rich moods and lead to a
precise architectural expression.
The book is not a typical book. It consists of plates
that can be opened, one after the other. Each plate is
connected to the overall book by the continuous text,
to the architect’s drive through the images of an
iconographic autobiography, and to his works
themselves through photos and rendering. As a book,
it is primarily a piece of work in its own right, an
image that evokes new images in the viewer. Since
the end of the 1990s, Valerio Olgiati has been
regarded as one of the most independent and
exceptional exponents of Swiss architecture. The book
compiles all his important buildings and projects
since 1996 - as well as a complete catalogue.

First Choice
There is often little difference between the
communications of corporations within any given
industry sector. This volume gives insight to a
method of broader visual language that reduces
this reliance and gives more opportunity for
corporations to respond to business change,
increasing product ranges and gaining higher
visibility. This is not about advertising; it’s about
utilising existing budgets for a strong, more
visible result. Beautifully packaged and designed,
and richly illustrated with insightful commentary
from an international body of peers, this book
harnesses the thinking and philosophies behind
some of the world’s most influential practitioners
in the visual language fields.
In a world where computer graphics provide a
more professional finish to both good and bad
design, the distinguishing factor is the strength of
the core idea. This volume offers 100 observations
into pivotal points in creating or developing the
ideas that drive corporate and brand identity. This
full-colour book will delve into the principles,
theory and design processes that help generate
movement from the germination of a concept to
the genesis of a well-known and recognisable
design of a brand or corporate identity.
Leading International Designers Select the
Very Best of Their Own Work
Ken Cato
First Choice is a continuing opportunity to learn how the world’s top designers
approach and evaluate their own work. In an attempt to demonstrate the broad
parameters of design, Ken Cato has selected a cross-section of designers from more
than 40 countries and asked the impossible question of them: to choose and justify
their favourite all-time work and support this choice with those other works
considered. This is an invaluable reference book for those interested in graphic design
and the selection criteria applied to the world’s leading exponents of the profession.

This book explores varying types of illustration
and how it’s best used in packaging design to
convey the concept of the product.
With the further development and maturation of
Internet business and the use of smartphones and
tablets, more and more companies are developing
Apps as a main promotional method. The knockon effect of this is that it’s necessary to pay more
attention to the quality of the interface design;
your App must stand out from the rest on the
market. The repeated need for updates and
redesigns pushes App designers to constantly
enrich their capabilities and broaden their own
horizons.
This book features the latest exhibition stands
and focuses on both the details and atmosphere
of the exhibition display design.
Walk and Watch III shows you how designers use
light, colour and materials to create innovative
exhibits.
An art derivative is a kind of cultural and creative
product that is derived often from quite famous
artworks; the creation of these products is
becoming an increasingly popular trend across
the art markets, museums and galleries. Art
derivatives are generally seen to be an affordable
option (when compared to the artwork itself ),
easy to purchase, and can often be mass
produced, making it easier for the layperson to
obtain. It’s not unusual for museums, galleries,
designers, and artists to collaborate in designing
and developing art derivatives.
This highly illustrated book presents some of the
most popular art derivatives across the world,
including the best-selling products found in wellknown museums, such as MoMA in New York
and the V&A in London. Readers are shown
how the supply of art objects and products are
making a greater reach into the public realm, and
how these objects help to enrich people’s lives.
Illustrations on package design are vital; they not
only help to sell the packaged product, but they’re
also an unparalleled force for building the
company’s brand, ensuring visibility in a highly
competitive market.
This book is an excellent reference work, offering
advice and ideas on how to create quality design,
with excellent market prospects in the industry.

Xavier Lust is certainly one of the most relevant
characters on the contemporary design scene. His
distinct and essential approach to design, his
ingenious and refined touch, and his ability to
synthesise clearly imply a special talent. Always
focused on innovation and research, he likes to
experiment, explore and discover the natural
transformations of materials. On the strength of
his experience with metal, he confronts all kind
of materials, challenging himself too in the
process.
Design Stories gives a wide sense of Lust’s work in
the different fields of design from creation to
production to final destination.
Design lives in everything we do. Every
interaction and space we experience was designed
in some way. Yet, the design of these experiences
is too often seen as the exclusive domain of
design wizards and secretive geniuses.
The ONG&ONG Experience Design Studio
believes design is for everyone. Here, they demystify the five-stage method they use for a
variety of projects. How did they rethink the
banking experience for Gen Y? How did they
fuse the traditional and modern in a heritage
shophouse? They share their philosophy and the
rationale behind specific design decisions because
they want to communicate a simple message: you
can design too.

Stan Van Steendam’s obsession for street typography
prompted him to create the magnificent, acclaimed
book, Brussels Type. Now comes the sequel, Reading
the Streets, in which Van Steendam travels abroad
with the same mission. He likes to intuitively
explore cities, using the typography on the city’s
streets as his guide - signs with letters that tell a
story about the chequered history of these cities. He
photographs the typographic fragments he
discovers, isolating them from their context. As a
result, these sometimes beautiful, at times banal, and
often impressive, typographic compositions take on
a whole new meaning. The outcome is a series of
personal photos, taken with old, analogue cameras
that succeed in representing the transitory nature of
the city in a heartfelt and provocative manner.

projects shows the best creative campaigns from
advertising, marketing and more. Volume 1
features the range of creative achievements in
corporate and brand design, packaging design,
advertising, annual reports, publishing and print

Volume 2 presents trends from spatial
communication, social responsibility, film and
animation, sound and game design, the online

the winners of the titles ‘Red Dot: Brand of the

The Event Design Yearbook was launched five years
ago and on this occasion this year’s volume
presents itself in a new look and clear design. As
always, the best events in the past year are
visualised with striking pictures and informative
texts. Small and large events as well as small and
large agencies are represented, different but still
equal because an idea does not cost anything to
start with! And this is about ideas, their
implementation and how they are received. The
technical possibilities are virtually unlimited: how
can they best be implemented and what
opportunities do they represent? Theoretical texts
on current topical issues frame the Event Design
Yearbook 2015/2016.
Two decades of experimental multimedia
scenography: illustrated by 30 international
award-winning projects, the successful Berlinbased studio Tamschick Media+Space provides
an insight into the art of converting contents and
objects into a three-dimensional, accessible,
holistic experience of space by means of
multimedia projections and of creating a lasting
dramaturgical experience. Elaborate development
processes are presented by means of
comprehensive series of images and drafts. Wellknown international authors from the fields of
scenography, architecture, museum and brands
share their experience in guest contributions.
If all five senses are appealed to in brand
communication, then it significantly intensifies
the emotional links between the brand and the
consumer. Therefore it is no wonder that
multisensory aspects play a particularly important
role in trade fair presentations. The atmosphere of
a trade fair hall can easily lead to a sensory
overload. Exhibitors are therefore not only
engaged in a product competition, but also in a
perceptual competition. In light of this, authors
of this year’s trade fair design yearbook have once
again brought together the best 60 trade fair
stands of the past year and show a cross section of
trade fair design that appeals to all the senses.

64 LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN
This full-colour, highly illustrated book focuses on
the rich natural landscapes of well-designed wetland
parks and botanic gardens. In particular, ecological
theme parks are popular with visitors and provide
much sought-after areas for relaxation and leisure
entertainment. Many of the case studies featured in
this book cover the significant roles played by
environmental protection and climate regulation,
including the importance of science education in this
field.
Traditional country parks, which originated in the
United Kingdom, are very different to the country
parks we know today. With the development of
urbanisation, city dwellers were no longer satisfied
with small urban green spaces, and a new style of
country park was born. Country Parks includes
detailed case studies showcasing international
country park design and provides valuable guidance
for professional designers working in the field today.
As we witness the effects of climate change,
stormwater management provides an added safeguard
that can help mitigate flash flooding. This book
provides a toolkit and reference of design projects for
city agencies and landscape designers to help them
achieve their goals. Offering a detailed guideline with
accompanying stormwater management methods, the
book is augmented with selected design cases,
presented with rich narratives, detailed plans and
drawings, and beautiful photography.
The idea of a ‘healing garden’ is well established as a
specific form of landscape design method; it meets
the physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs
of the people using the garden. Shown through
detailed theory and illustrations, the first part of this
book focuses on the concept, types, and design
considerations. The second part of the book provides
insightful design descriptions, detailed plan drawings
and photos showing the final, built projects on a wide
range of types of healing gardens.
Walking and cycling are a fashionable lifestyle choice
- both as a low-impact exercise and a healthy means
of travel. There is ever-growing demand for the
construction of pedestrian and cyclist paths. This
book showcases several exciting design projects across
a range of environments, from cities to local
communities, urban to larger national parks. It
includes an informative design guide and a set of
criteria that should provide strong reference materials
for professionals and students in related design fields.
As the pace of urbanisation accelerates and
population and building densities increase, there’s
much less park space available for people to enjoy.
With less investment outlay and a smaller area
required, ‘pocket parks’ could provide the solution for
the creation of highly sought-after spaces for
activities in high-density city environments. This
book studies the characteristics of the pocket park
and the relationship between the landscape and
people, and it is perfect source material for landscape
designers and urban planners.

Public Green Space in the Community refers to the
public space that is located in sections of residential
land, often a space providing entertainment facilities
and a place for the community to interact across
various activities. With the rapid development of the
urbanisation process, people are paying much more
attention to the construction of infrastructure in their
living environments, thus the construction of public
green space is steadily increasing on a larger scale.
The construction of green space not only helps
improve the quality of residential living spaces and
the level of public welfare, but these spaces also
inspire residents’ participation in the community.
SMART Landscape is a significant contribution to the
conversation on sustainable landscape design,
providing energy-efficient models and water-saving
landscape ideas. This book shows techniques for
creating landscapes that save water, for example by
choosing correct planting materials; reducing
stormwater run-off through the use of bio-swales,
rain gardens and green roofs and walls; reducing
water usage in landscapes through best-practice
water-wise garden techniques, including irrigation
using gray water.
Water as a resource is irreplaceable. Yet heavy rainfall
can become an absolute disaster - even in modern
cities - if rainwater is not drained out in time. The
term “Sponge City” refers to the idea of a city where
its urban underground water system operates like a
sponge to absorb, store, leak and purify rainwater, and
release it for reuse when necessary. The book
comprises 41 projects of urban landscape architecture,
showing the exploration of the role of water
management in urban spatial planning.
Open spaces, sport and outdoor recreation are
important components of people’s lives. They provide
many cultural, social, economic and environmental
benefits and contribute positively to physical and
mental health. The primary purpose of sports parks is
to provide for organised sports and physical activity.
These spaces need to function with a high degree of
organisation and should cater for sports uses ranging
from junior team training to major competitive events.
This book features the newest design projects from
around the world, and offers exciting ideas for sports
park landscape design.
This full-colour, highly illustrated book focuses on
the rich natural landscapes of well-designed wetland
parks and botanic gardens, which are often strong
attractions for a range of tourism and leisure facilities.
In particular, ecological theme parks are popular with
visitors and provide much sought-after areas for
relaxation and leisure entertainment. Many of the
case studies featured in this book cover the significant
roles that environmental protection and climate
regulation play in the creation and maintenance of
wetland parks and botanic gardens, including the
importance of science education in this field.

Alongside technology, design is the key criterion that decides whether or not a car is
regarded as attractive. Throughout its history (and prehistory), Audi AG has always
understood how to strike the right balance between these poles. The results have been
so harmonious that models bearing the four interlocking rings have always been
among the most sought-after cars on the planet. The current automobile design with
the single-frame radiator grille is a perfect example of the well-conceived, consistent
approach to this model family. The ever-increasing sales figures enjoyed by Audi
worldwide are a testament to the value that good, minimalist design has gained in
everyday life. It is thus hard to think of a better time to publish the standard reference
work on this subject.

The Nürburgring race track, located in Nürburg, Germany, is a Grand Prix track, built
in 1984, coupled with a much longer ‘North Loop’ track built in the 1920s.
Nicknamed ‘The Green Hell’ by Jackie Stewart following his victory in the 1968
Grand Prix, the race track has been a source of endless fascination for anyone involved
in or following motorsports - partly because of its history and partly because of the
challenge it provides. Notoriously unforgiving and difficult, the track was the location
of Niki Lauda’s horrific crash during the 1976 German Grand Prix.

It is a vast world one enters when writing on the
statuettes of the Art Deco era: both in terms of
the number of artists that contributed to it, and
the number of figures they created. This book
studies the influences that shaped these artists’
work - namely, the growth of the Ballets Russes
under the aegis of Sergei Diaghilev; the
fascination in all things Egyptian that followed
the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1924;
and the Music Hall, with all of its venues, its stars
and its glamour.
Paris was a magnet for aspiring artists. An
unrivalled destination for free-spending tourists,
its popularity dwelt in the city’s inexpensiveness,
considering the absence of the dollar and the
falling value of the franc. A thorough look at its
artists and their work can only emerge from long
investigation.
Over 23 years ago the first publication of
Chiparus: Master of Art Deco brought this artist
into the public eye. His name, lost in records and
catalogues, was rejuvenated by Alberto Shayo’s
rediscovery of his works, effectively bringing
artist and oeuvre back to life.
This book dwells on the sources and inspiration
of the Art Deco movement, with particular
emphasis on sculptures created by Demétre
Chiparus. However, Chiparus considered himself
a painter above a sculptor. In this latest version of
the book, many unpublished pictures come to
light as well as newly discovered oils and
‘sanguines’, confirming his aptitude in both fields.
Contents: The Early Years; Development of the
Art Deco Style; The New Woman; Chiparus and
the Art Deco Aesthetic; Chryselephantine
Sculpture; Notes; Plates; Paintings by Chiparus;
Care of Chryselephantine Sculpture; Fakes and
Reproductions.

Roland Paris is one of the most recognisable
artists of the Art Deco world, yet his work
remains something of an enigma. His art is
caricature-like, bordering on grotesque, and he
delivers critical perspectives on society’s
downtrodden via jesters and devils. His mediums
range from sculpture and painting to porcelain
and wood, including woodcuts and the written
word.
This never-before-seen study focusses on the
artist’s trials and tribulations while living in
Nazi-ruled Germany, and the tragic end to his
life, hours before the end of World War Two.
As one of the top consultants in the Art Deco
field, Alberto Shayo has dedicated his life to
travel, discovering new figures and determining
the worthiness of private and public collections.
Mr Shayo is the author of Camille Fauré: Limoges

70 DECORATIVE ARTS
Eric Schmitt, born in 1955, makes objects in the
grand tradition of the decorative arts. His unique
creations of precision and luxury were first
shown in the mid-1980s by VIA. Experimenting
with the contrast of materials - glass and steel,
marble and Corian, slate and parchment - his
supple forms manifest a constant tension of one
kind or another, whether between thick and thin,
transparent and opaque, solid and fragile, dark
and coloured, silent and sonorous. With pieces
of his mentioned by Bret Easton Ellis in
American Psycho, Eric Schmitt has worked with
the leading editors in design around the world:
Christian Liaigre, as well as the Dutko, Ralph
Pucci, Cat-Berro, and IBU galleries, to name a
few.
Wolf-Gordon
Delicate jellyfish and anemones, octopus,
tentacled squid, and bizarre-looking soft-bodied
sea creatures were meticulously recreated in glass
by father and son artists Leopold and Rudolf
Blaschka in the late 19th century. The Blaschka
invertebrate models were commissioned by
universities and museums throughout the world
as teaching models for students of natural
science and marine life. Illustrated here for the
first time with breathtaking new photography
are 60 of the most exquisite models from the
exceptional collection of Harvard University’s
Museum of Comparative Zoology.
Dust Free Friends
With passion and expert insight, Frank
Nievergelt compiled an impressive collection
over forty-five years of more than 900 pieces of
contemporary ceramics, ranging from vessels
and sculptures via display pieces to monumental
works. Over one hundred leading figures of the
international ceramic scene from 1970 to 2015
are represented in the collection, the emphasis of
which is on newer objects. In this publication,
the most significant pieces of this renowned
collection are presented in a selection of fortyone artists, hence impressively highlighting the
unaffected beauty and diversity of contemporary
ceramic art.

The recently discovered company archive of the
glass manufacturer Vetri Decorativi Rag.
Aureliano Toso, founded in 1938, is now being
made accessible to a wider audience in over
1,500 design drawings for the very first time.
Together with the company’s history and a wellresearched list of models, Marc Heiremans
successfully reveals the entire artistic production
of one of the most significant Muranese
manufacturers. Innovative and breathtaking
designs by Dino Martens and his successors
Enrico Potz and Gino Poli are now able to be
clearly identified and dated for the first time
ever; this is an indispensable reference book with
many previously unknown yet now attributable
glass objects in large-format colour illustrations.

American design company Wolf-Gordon
celebrates 50 years in business with its first book,
a lively and visually stunning compendium of
product design (wallcovering and textile design),
creative projects, showrooms, and branded
materials. Wolf-Gordon: Sample Book features
more than 100 product designs (in more than
1,000 colourways); five themed presentations
showcasing the astounding breadth of productand communications-related materials developed
by Wolf-Gordon; three articles on the company’s
design perspective and process; and a fascinating
first-person history of the company from its
earliest days to the present.
Dust Free Friends is a series of designs for small
pieces of domestic furniture, designed by
London-based 6a architects, that can be made
very simply at home, in restricted spaces, with a
small number of tools and without specialist
skills. The lightness and simplicity of the pieces is
derived from a combination of observation of the
way simple plywood constructions on a
construction site are adapted to become stools,
tables, steps, and stairs, changing quickly and
without fuss as workers need them. Beautifully
produced and illustrated with some 90 easy-tounderstand diagrams and images, Dust Free
Friends is a comprehensive, precise, and
entertaining, manual to furnishing a comfortable
place entirely by its users.
A master furniture maker, designer, sculptor, and
educator, Wendell Castle is in his sixth decade of
a fruitful and creative career that began in 1958
and that parallels the emergence and growth of
the American studio craft movement. The solo
exhibition at the Museum of Arts and Design
that this book accompanies runs from October
20, 2015 to February 28, 2016.

Victor Chinnery’s scholarly work covers the
history and development of furniture in oak and
kindred timbers in the British Isles and New
England, from the Middle Ages through to 1800.
The subject is broken down into a logical
sequence of aspects and each section is
generously illustrated. The furniture shown ranges
from the finest examples of the period, to the sort
of sturdy and workmanlike pieces which modern
collectors will find affordable.
The study of oak furniture is a remarkably rich
and varied subject, which reflects at several levels
the social and domestic life of many generations
of our ancestors. Victor Chinnery has explored
and clarified many important topics, whilst fully
realising that scholarship in this field is still very
much in its infancy.

Gemstones presents a straightforward introduction to
gemology, examining diamonds, emeralds, rubies and
sapphires as well as over 100 other precious stones.
With 1,000 colour photographs, the volume includes
full descriptions, technical details, and tips on how to
check for fakes. Terms such as refraction, dichroism,
and fluorescence are explained and gemologists’
instruments and identification tests are introduced.
The volume also includes a handy guide to
‘Gemstones around the World.’
This book presents Van Cleef & Arpels through a
selection of 25 words chosen for their emblematic
dimension. For each word, a dictionary definition, a
lyrical definition by Van Cleef & Arpels, and an
artistic interpretation by a friend of the Maison:
artists, designers, writers, philosophers, chefs,
photographers, poets. Each chapter (savoir faire,
femininity, Place Vendôme, enchantment, style) is
opened by a poetic theatre in laser cut paper. The
book captures a poetic and literary happenstance,
telling a story about beauty, about poetry, unleashing
creation and unbridling the imaginary realm’s might.
The World’s Most Expensive Watches presents some of
the most extravagant, intricate, collectable, decadent,
or just plain interesting modern-day timepieces that
sit at the top of the price spectrum. Starting at a
threshold price of about $200,000, it is a trip through
the last decade or so of watches whose values soar
incredibly to prices of $5 million dollars or more.
Additionally, there is a selection of notable watches
that yielded extremely high prices at auction - many
of which are historically relevant.
Ausgezeichnet! Most Excellent! is a joint project,
organised by the Chemnitzer Künstlerbund e. V., the
Militärhistorisches Museum der Bundeswehr in
Dresden (DE), and the Institute for European
Studies of the Technische Universität Chemnitz
(DE). It aims to cultivate a relationship between
contemporary art and contemporary heroes. The
exhibit has invited jewellers, sculptors, and a range of
other creatives to present the current attitudes of the
public towards those deemed ‘heroic’, channelling
their individual interpretations of the topic into their
work. This book captures the most eye-catching and
inventive exhibits in full-colour photographs.
The Pforzheim Jewellery Museum is the world’s only
museum in public ownership that is dedicated to
jewellery. Its collections comprise originals from five
millennia, from prehistoric times to the present day.
Highlights include exquisite specimens from Greek
and Etruscan antiquity and from the Renaissance
and the Baroque periods, as well as outstanding
examples of Art Nouveau jewellery plus its unique
collection of contemporary art jewellery created since
1960. Two other collections provide important
complementary insights into the diversity of
jewellery: the Eva and Peter Herion collection of
ethnographic jewellery and the Philipp Weber pocket
watch collection owned by the Sparkasse Pforzheim
Calw savings bank.

The Decorators of the
1960s and 1970s
Patrick Favardin, Guy Bloch-Champfort
The 1960s and 1970s marked a sharp turning point in the history of decoration and
furniture. Until that point, the world was confined to national and elitist forms of
expression. At the beginning of the 1960s, the sector took its inspiration from AngloSaxon, Scandinavian, Italian and French decoration. Genres were combined in a
frenzied desire to live in symbiosis with one’s time. The progress of technology
strengthened the conviction that the individual had unlimited freedom and aroused
the desire to inhabit in a new manner. Forms became rounder, furniture was in sync
with a warm, playful, and anticonformist universe. Colours and decorative motifs took
on the brilliance and fantasies of Pop Art and psychedelia. The living environment was
transformed into a waking dream in which luxurious furniture in original materials
and surprising objects were mixed, associated, for the first time, with early furniture.
The end of the 1970s marked the advent of a period in which beauty and classic
elegance gave way to a host of expressions that were unclassifiable and rejected any
hierarchy. The postmodern period had arrived. Composed of a long introduction that
provides a synoptic view and 32 monographs that describe its many faces, this book
invites the reader to discover an exceptionally creative period and reveals through an
abundant iconography.

From Invention to Perfection
Masterpieces of Eighteenth-Century Decorative Art
Edited by Sarah-Katharina Andres-Acevedo,
Hans Ottomeyer
One hundred masterpieces of European art and arts and crafts of the eighteenth
century form a panorama of innovation, design and expert realisation. In their
sumptuous design, the porcelain, furniture, bronzes and silver objects are all miracles
of the luxury craftsmanship found in court art. Such sophisticated design was the
driving force behind the quickly successive styles of classicism, naturalism and the
exotic design of the Rococo period. André-Charles Boulle, Jakob Philipp Hackert,
Johann Joachim Kaendler, Alexandre-Jean Oppenordt and Jean-Baptiste François
Pater are just some of the renowned artists featured in this catalogue. The artworks are
opulently presented, interpreted in detail and arranged according to context. Thus the
colourful image of a great era in art emerges, one that relied on creative energy and the
power of the imagination.

Carpets of Afghanistan is without a doubt one of
the most detailed analysis of Afghanistan rug
production ever published. Richard Parsons treats
the reader not only to a veritable feast of carpets
and rugs, all with their attendant tribal origins
and motifs vividly explained, but also to a
fascinating journey through the history of a
diverse and colourful country. The author shares
his respect and admiration for Afghanistan’s stoic
people, who, somehow, despite political
upheavals, forced resettlement, a harsh climate
and often primitive nomadic conditions, manage
to fashion exquisite works of art which reflect
their pride in their many-faceted heritage.
The publication introduces for the first time the
extraordinarily rich yet previously unknown
British collection of Turkmen tribal carpets, rugs
and trappings by Neville Kingston. The
exceptional private collection forms the departure
point for an exciting account of the development
of the Turkmen weaving tradition, which lies at
the heart of Eurasian textiles. Thanks to Elena
Tsareva’s extensive study of the art of Turkmen
carpets in the light of archaeological and
historical data, a complex picture of central Asian
textiles has emerged. It shows how every epoch
has contributed to the fundamentals of carpetweaving and enriched it with new motifs,
compositions and techniques.
India has been at the heart of the global trade in
textiles since ancient times, and cotton has been
at the heart of the Subcontinent’s economy for
millennia. Karun Thakar has been collecting
textile art for more than 30 years, and has one of
the world’s leading private collections. Aspects of
the Thakar Collection have been exhibited in the
Victoria & Albert Museum in London and at the
Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The
Indian dyed and painted cotton cloths in the
Thakar Collection are perhaps the best in private
hands. Dating from the 15th century onwards,
the collection illustrates the trade in textiles
across the Indian Ocean with the MalayIndonesian world, with Sri Lanka, Armenia and
Europe, as well as within the Indian domestic
market.
A mystifying group of carpets and tapestries
created along the Silk Route over 500 years ago is
the topic of this richly illustrated book. The
carpets and tapestries with riveting yet puzzling
designs have been preserved in closed treasure
houses since the 14th to 15th centuries. They are
brought out only one day a year for a ShintoBuddhist festival procession and quickly returned
to storage. This book is about their shrouded
origin in China, the pariahs who wove them, the
meaning of their obscure motifs, and the reasons
for the secrecy continuing to surround their
exhibition. Early Carpets and Tapestries on the
Eastern Silk Road is written by Gloria Granz
Gonick, Art Historian and Research Associate at
The Fowler Museum at UCLA, former Guest
Curator for Matsuri Japanese Festival Arts, and
former Museum Curator for the Los Angeles
Craft and Folk Art Museum.

Magdalen College is one of the most beautiful of
the Oxford colleges. Founded in 1458, it was
built in the extensive grounds of the suppressed
Hospital of St John the Baptist (an institution
dating from at least 1180), outside the east gate
of the medieval city walls. Over the centuries the
College has built and rebuilt itself, developing an
impressive physical presence, from the Old
Kitchen - a remnant of the Hospital - to its late
medieval Cloister, Chapel and Hall, the Great
Tower, the beautiful eighteenth-century New
Building, St Swithun’s Quad, up to the new
Library in Longwall Quad, finished in 2016. It is
unique in possessing a College Deer Park, and its
Muniment Room is a very rare example of a late
fifteenth-century space still furnished with its
original oak furniture and fittings. Magdalen has
a rich and complicated academic, architectural
and personal history, which is presented here,
along with notes on what visitors can see today.
The Flying Scotsman
The stunning seventeenth-century ‘Old
Ashmolean Building’ on Broad Street in Oxford
houses one of the finest collections of early
instruments from Europe and the Islamic world.
Together with a fascinating range of material
from the eighteenth century to the present day,
these artefacts offer an intriguing insight into
ingenuity and creativity, and tell amazing stories
of human scientific endeavour in a wider cultural
and social context. The Director, Silke
Ackermann, hand-picks her favourite items and
provides an intimate, idiosyncratic guide to a
remarkable collection.

76 HISTORY
Arguably the most famous bridge in the world,
Tower Bridge was built in the late nineteenth
century and immediately acclaimed as a feat of
Victorian engineering. Designed to ease road
traffic while maintaining river access, it was
constructed with giant moveable roadways that
lift up for passing ships. It quickly became known
as the ‘Wonder Bridge’.
Celebrating this truly iconic London structure, a
focal point of the city and the River Thames, this
book tells the story of the bridge and its design
with a range of stunning historical and
contemporary photos. The bridge’s history is
brought to life with an array of fascinating facts
(around 40,000 people cross the bridge every day)
and colourful anecdotes (in 1952 the driver of a
double decker bus managed to jump the 3-foot
gap when the bridge began to open up as he was
halfway over). With a contemporary design and
striking cover, this will be the perfect
introduction to one of London’s most impressive
sights.

No other train has entered the British national
consciousness in the same way as the Flying
Scotsman. It first ran in 1862; it still runs today,
passing through incarnations like stations
through the years. This book follows the story of
the Flying Scotsman in a way that no other
history has, expertly weaving together the tale of
the locomotive with a wider historical narrative.
Furthermore, it delves into the lesser-known
stories of the train - such as its sabotage by
striking miners in 1926 - and features superb
examples of poster art and other publicity
materials commissioned by the LNER to
promote the service, and documentary
photography from the 19th century to the
present.
By awarding the European post monopoly to the
Thurn & Taxis family 500 years ago, a truly
continental postal service was born. Moreover,
1516 also saw the early birth of the Royal Mail.
Written by a world class expert, this book brings
together storytelling with high quality
reproductions of rarely seen objects. The letter in
which Emperor Charles V confirms the
monopoly of the Thurn & Taxis family; the first
transatlantic letter of 1512; the very first postage
stamp and envelope… Read all about those and
47 other historical objects in this ambitious book,
which covers the entire history of the postal
service in Europe from 1516 until the founding
of the Universal Postal Union in 1875, as well as
important milestones before and after.
Due to its strategic location and natural resources
Sicily has always been a coveted island.
Phoenicians and Greeks were the first to settle; in
the following centuries a sequence of rulers
invaded Sicily, from Romans and Byzantines,
Moors and various European royal houses up to
the invasion of the allies in 1943. All those
cultures living together effected each other and
left their traces. Sicily and the Sea highlights the
culture of the island through the ages. Lovers of
underwater archaeology, ports, temples, sea
battles and shipwrecks are generously served. But
Sicily and the Sea is about much more: about
Homeric monsters, folklore, modern politics, and
the many writers and film directors who were
inspired by this island itself.
Published to coincide with the centennial of the
founding of the USA’s National Park Service, A
Thinking Person’s Guide to America’s National Parks
is a book for people interested in broadening and
deepening their understanding of the full range
of, and challenges facing, America’s national parks.
This magnificent system includes the iconic
western national parks like Yellowstone, Yosemite
and the Grand Canyon; urban parks such as
Golden Gate National Recreation Area in San
Francisco and Gateway National Recreation Area
in New York City; historic sites, including the
Statue of Liberty National Monument and
Gettysburg National Military Park; and cultural
sites like New Orleans Jazz National Historical
Park. The reader will learn about the vast array of
programs offered by the National Park Service
and affiliated organisations to educate the public
about conservation and restoration.

Picasso: The Great War, Experimentation, and Change examines the work that Pablo
Picasso made in Paris during the tumultuous years of World War I. Focusing on
Picasso’s oeuvre from 1912 to 1924, when he utilised both Cubist and classical modes
in his art, this fully illustrated catalogue highlights one of the most important periods
in the history of modern art. Picasso’s shifts in style became a means of not repeating,
in his words, ‘the same vision, the same technique, the same formula.’ With that
approach in mind, the book also includes the work of Picasso’s peers and friends,
artists who were also exploring themes relevant to the difficult times in which they
lived. Published to accompany a major exhibition of the same name at the Barnes
Foundation and the Columbus Museum of Art, this elegantly designed book is
essential reading for all those interested in Picasso’s work and the dramatic and
innovative period of art history during the Great War.
Andy Warhol is one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century. The Hall
Foundation holds around 140 works by Andy Warhol in their expansive collection. It
covers all eras of Warhol’s career, from the early 1960s up to the year before his death
in 1987. From images of Campbells soup cans, Brillo boxes, to large screen prints of
flowers and New York society and celebrity. Covering a variety of media; screen
printing, photography and drawings, this is the first time the collection will have been
seen in the UK. Complete with an introductory essay by Sir Norman Rosenthal, there
is also an interview between Andy Hall of the Hall Foundation, and Alexander
Sturgis, Director of the Ashmolean Museum.
Published to accompany a show at the Ashmolean Museum from February 4th to
May 15th, 2016; the collection has never been seen before in the United Kingdom.
Sir Norman Rosenthal is an independent curator and art historian. Among his many
achievements, he was Exhibitions Secretary at the Royal Academy for over thirty
years. Eric Shriner is the Director of the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania. Alexander Sturgis is the Director of the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford.

Gauguin
Painting Norway
Tales From Paradise
Edited by Line Clausen Pedersen and Flemming Friborg
Nikolai Astrup
1880-1928
Frances Carey, Ian Dejardin, MaryAnne Stevens
Drawing upon a refined selection of over eighty masterpieces, the catalogue and the
exhibition it accompanies explore the entire career of the restless French artist
Gauguin, analysing the primitive tendency as ideology, as an artistic practice, and
lastly as a heritage of vast importance for the development of painting through the
entire 20th century.
A pioneering painter and printmaker, Nikolai Astrup (1880-1928) spent his life
capturing the landscapes of his home in Western Norway, imbuing his work with
mysticism and an enigmatic symbolic content. The first UK exhibition of his work will
run at the Dulwich Picture Gallery from February to May 2016. Over 90 oil paintings
and prints will explore the breadth and depth of Astrup’s unique artistic practice,
shining a spotlight on of one of Norway’s most renowned artists of the twentieth
century.
Although Paul Gauguin is known mainly for his Polynesian adventures during the
years of his maturity, his search for the “primitive” was actually a lifelong search
intended to attain a sole objective: the renewal of figuration and of all its canons.
Breton folklore, Provençal mysticism, Danish Bronze Age rites: Gauguin pursued the
idea of the primitive in whatever form encountered, bringing together in his works the
inspiration taken from real journeys and memories mixed with exotic literature, art,
exhibitions and reproductions of non-European works.
Frances Carey is an independent curator and consultant who was formerly Deputy
Keeper of Prints and Drawings and Head of National Programmes at the British
Museum. She has published on the history of art and culture from the eighteenth
century to the present day.
Ian A.C. Dejardin is the Sackler Director of Dulwich Picture Gallery, London. He
graduated with a Master (Hons) in History of Art from Edinburgh University;
appointed Curator at Dulwich in 1997, he became the gallery's Director in 2005 and
since then has presided over a varied and international exhibition programme.

Parmigianino (1503-1540) was among the
leading artists of Mannerism, the style that
characterised the later years of the Italian High
Renaissance and spread throughout Europe, and
is known for the exquisite grace and refinement
of his art. Heir to Raphael and Correggio he is
considered one of the most accomplished
draughtsmen of all times. The Louvre has the
largest collection of his drawings and the
catalogue traces his development as an artist
through the analysis of over 60 magnificent
drawings. Parmigianino was extremely
precocious, and after having absorbed the
innovations coming from different artistic centres
of Northern Italy (Venice, Ferrara, Cremona,
Parma), at only 19 years of age he went to Rome
and was presented to the pope. After the sack of
Rome, he moved to Bologna and then returned
to his hometown, Parma. Never satisfied with the
results attained, he drew and sketched
continuously leaving us an exceptional legacy.
The Mona Lisa is one of mankind’s great
mysteries. With over 9.7 million admirers per
year, it is the most legendary painting of all time.
No other work has provoked such a desire to
know its secrets. Now, after a decade of research,
Pascal Cotte has pioneered an extraordinary
scientific imagery technique (L.A.M.), that takes
us into the heart of the paint-layers of the world's
most famous picture and reveals secrets that have
remained hidden for 500 years. This book takes
us on a journey that reveals his remarkable
findings. It demonstrates definitively, for the first
time, answers to the mysteries that have eluded
us for centuries. Who was the lady in the picture?
Did Leonardo paint another version? What really
lies behind that iconic face? And how did
Leonardo achieve that beguiling and seductive
smile? There are over 150 brand new discoveries
about the painting. A landmark event in the
world of art, this book shatters many myths and
alters our vision of Leonardo’s masterpiece
forever.
This book on The Lady with an Ermine is the first
to examine in depth the painting technique of
Leonardo da Vinci and reveals the secrets of the
creation of his paintings. One key to this work is
the unprecedented discovery of a true small
ermine hidden beneath the visible animal that we
see today. We also discover that the first intention
of the Master was to paint a classic portrait without an animal. Probably at the instigation of
the Duke of Milan, Leonardo may have altered
its composition and later added an ermine then,
unsatisfied, transformed it again. Thanks to a
revolutionary new technique, Pascal Cotte is able
to analyse, layer by layer, all the superpositions of
the brushstrokes. It is thus possible to reconstruct
the whole story; from plank of wood, through all
superimposed layers to the final appearance. The
book also reveals important details about the
construction of the painting, the wanderings of
the painter, his hesitations, his errors and
changes.

Since his son’s biography, published in 1892,
Palmer has been seen as the victim of Victorian
materialism, a visionary who sacrificed his talent
to the naturalism popular with the middle classes.
Palmer was self-taught, and experimented
throughout his life with unconventional
techniques in his determination to convey the
‘infinity and endless suggestiveness’ of nature.
Through a close examination of the works by
Palmer in the Ashmolean Museum and other
collections, both public and private, and a fresh
reading of his letters, many of them unpublished,
Samuel Palmer & the Poetical Landscape offers a
unique account of the artist’s art and life.
Franz Xaver Winterhalter (1805-1873) was the
most renowned portraitist of European
aristocracy of his day, expertly capturing the
refinement and opulence of his distinguished
sitters. Born and trained in Germany,
Winterhalter settled in Paris in 1834, where he
became the official court painter to King LouisPhilippe. In Paris in 1855, at the pinnacle of his
career, he painted the noble portrait Empress
Eugénie and Her Ladies-in-Waiting, which would
go on to symbolise an entire era. The lavishly
illustrated publication complements
Winterhalter’s magnificent portraits of crowned
heads of state with selected items of clothing by
the contemporary and sought-after couturier
Charles Frederick Worth.
An exceptional woman, Elisabeth Vigée-Lebrun
was already a renowned portraitist for the
nobility at the age of twenty. From 1777, she
became the official painter of the queen Marie
Antoinette. Invited in major courts of Europe,
she acquired an international reputation. Back in
France in 1800, then staying in England and
Switzerland, Elisabeth Vigée-Lebrun did not
cease to paint until her death in 1845. Her work
counts approximately 900 paintings, including
more than 660 portraits. This book presents 40
selected masterpieces from the 130 paintings
exhibited at the Grand Palais, Paris, from
September 2015, then at the Metropolitan
Museum of Art, New York and The National
Gallery of Canada, Ottawa.
These innovative colouring books, presents
masterpieces of the Impressionist movement. On
the left-hand page is an image of the masterpiece,
while on the right is a large-format picture for
you to colour. Included are highly detailed colour
palettes, with a complete breakdown of how to
mix each shade, ensuring that you get every
colour just right. Every picture is annotated with
numbers and letters, signifying where each colour

Monet at Giverny
Caroline Holmes
Claude Monet spent the last 43 years of his life at Giverny, creating the paintings and
gardens for which he is overwhelmingly remembered. From the standpoint of his
garden, this book considers the controlling intelligence behind both landscape and art,
and the natural influences that shaped Monet’s life and vision. It is divided into three
sections: The Man, The Garden, and The Paintings.

The artist is shown as a consummate plantsman who created his gardens with an
Impressionist’s consideration for colour and form, re-interpreting its motifs in
paintings of power and abstraction. Drawing upon the voices of Monet and his
contemporaries and offering a wealth of horticultural detail, this is a fascinating
celebration of a unique artistic mind.
Using contemporary correspondence and plant catalogues, with over 150 illustrations
including paintings, engravings and garden views from Monet’s lifetime and today’s
magnificent recreation, this book provides a visual exploration of the gardens at Giverny
where Monet celebrated his passion for painting and the plants that inspired him.

people from around the world as it provides a unique living link between the artist
and his canvas. This book enhances that experience for those who have visited or are
about to visit. Even if you never have the opportunity the reader, like Monet, can lose
themselves in the planted palatte he would have known.

Daubigny, Monet,

Impressions of Landscape
Michael Clarke, Frances Fowle,
Lynne Ambrosini, Maite van Dijk, Nienke Bakker and
René Boitelle
Charles François Daubigny (1817-1878) was one of the most important French artists
of the nineteenth century. Admired by the Impressionists, he routinely painted
outdoors, invented new subjects such as the mid-river view, and developed a radically
unfinished style. He supported younger artists at the Salon and introduced both
Monet and Pissarro to the Paris art dealer Paul Durand-Ruel. In later life he explored
a more subjective interpretation of nature in his sunsets and nocturnes, inspiring not
only Monet but Vincent van Gogh, who spent the last two months of his life close to
Daubigny’s home and studio at Auvers-sur-Oise. These themes and others are
explored through a series of essays that examine his interactions with the young
impressionists, the market response to his paintings, his pioneering use of a studio
boat, the evolution of his highly original technical processes, his role as the leader of
an artists’ colony and his importance for Van Gogh.

Ben Uri Gallery and Museum was founded 100 years
ago in London’s East End by Russian-Jewish émigré
Lazar Berson and likeminded, mostly émigré, artists
and craftsmen, who were unable to access the cultural
bastions of the British art establishment. From its
inception as an Art Society in 1915 to its position
today as the only specialist Jewish museum of art in
Europe working wholly in the mainstream, Ben Uri’s
unique international collection has grown to more
than 1,300 artworks across a wide range of subjects
and media, created by more than 380 artists,
primarily (but not exclusively) of Jewish origin and
from 35 countries.
The National Museum in Warsaw, one of the largest
museums in Poland, is home to a plethora of striking
objects: from a collection of Chinese art comprising
around 5,000 objects to the Faras Gallery, home to
Europe’s largest collection of Nubian Christian art.
Polish paintings from the 16th century onwards also
feature, hung alongside paintings reclaimed from
Nazis. In 2012 the permanent galleries were rehung;
paintings are now arranged thematically rather than
chronologically. Visitors can compare Italian with
Flemish, Polish with German art while wandering
through rooms of landscapes, cityscapes, biblical
scenes and more.
The National Museum, Sultanate of Oman is
dedicated to preserving and showcasing the treasures
of Oman’s cultural heritage. This official visitor
guidebook is being published to mark the opening of
the new museum. Illustrated throughout with objects
from the collection and texts, it features highlights
from all the museum’s galleries, including The Land
and the People, Maritime History, Arms and
Armour, Civilisation in the Making, Aflaj, Currency,
Prehistory and Ancient History, Splendours of Islam,
Oman and the World, Intangible Heritage and
Oman’s modern Renaissance.
Known worldwide for his architecture and interior
designs, Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928)
was also an extremely gifted painter. Towards the
end of his life he gave up his principal career as an
architect and moved to the south of France where he
devoted himself to painting in watercolour. This
book charts Mackintosh’s time in France and
explores his career as a landscape painter, placing his
work in the context of the modern movement. The
forty-four paintings Mackintosh is known to have
completed while in France are illustrated.
This beautiful colouring and drawing book contains
intricate illustrations, decorative details and a
fabulous fold-out map. This is the perfect starting
point for your art adventure around the National
Galleries of Scotland. Colour in the buildings, draw

Sumptuously illustrated with 66 full colour and 6
black-and-white illustrations including paintings,
drawings and lithographs from both public and
private collections, this publication accompanies
Ben Uri’s first major exhibition on Sir William
Rothenstein (1872-1945) and his circle.
Spanning six decades of British art, it explores
Rothenstein’s career and influence within the
context of his (mostly younger) contemporaries
including Barnett Freedman, Mark Gertler, Eric
Kennington, Jacob Kramer, Albert Rutherston
and Alfred Wolmark, who were all either directly
influenced by or worked alongside him.
Edward Bawden’s (1903-1989) artistic career
spanned more than sixty years. During this time
he was extraordinarily prolific and produced a
considerable body of work, including book
illustrations, advertising posters, murals (for ships,
boardrooms, colleges and churches), fine
paintings, tapestries, and wallpapers. Malcolm
Yorke’s incisive biography of Bawden follows
Bawden’s career in the context of the social and
artistic friendships he cultivated, such as those
with Douglas Percy Bliss and, in particular, Eric
Ravilious. The book is greatly enhanced by the
inclusion of material from Bawden’s personal
scrapbooks, allowing the reader an insight into
Bawden’s working methods and his final pieces.
For much of the period of the 1920s to the
1960s, not only did the BBC dominate
broadcasting, but became a major publisher. The
publications produced by the BBC, including The
Radio Times, carried illustrations - not only on
the covers, but on the inner pages too. In the
years covered by this book over sixty artists were
commissioned for these, such as Edward
McKnight Kauffer, Ronald Searle, and Eric
Fraser. Throughout this time, the BBC can be
bracketed with the likes of Shell and London
Transport as a major patron of artists, and,
possibly, the one that gave its artists the most
freedom to experiment and to exhibit their
individual eccentricities.
People, through the ages, have been bombarded
with advice, direction or hard selling on ways to
keep safe and sound - some of this underpinned
by ‘science’, some just common sense, and some
sheer quackery. Here’s to Your Health, with its
focus on advertising, covers just a sample of such
cajoling taking place in the first half of the 20th
century - what to eat and drink, what to wear,
what to use, how to behave - or not behave. It is a
tale of fashionable fads, human suggestibility and
social history.

Through a decade of friendship, sharing the same
environs and being active collectors, Sonja Graber
and Christian Graber are inextricably connected to
the photographer Annelies Strba, the jewellery and
object artist Bernhard Schobinger and the painter
Adrian Schiess. In the collectors, the artists and the
Kunsthaus Zug, like-minded people have come
together in the most indiscriminate appreciation of
fine and applied art. To mark the occasion of the
donation of the Graber collections to the museum,
the three internationally renowned artists along with
hitherto largely unpublished works are now united in
one publication.
This book grants beautiful insights into the diversity
of the collection of treasures held in Leipzig’s
GRASSI Museum of Applied Arts. The sequence of
illustrations highlights exciting connections, diversions
and views between the objects. Chronological records
or even the stringent arrangement of the collections
and materials play no role here, allowing surprisingly
novel qualities, frequently otherwise hidden, to be
revealed. In this publication the works meet face to
face and present a wonderful survey of the diverse
forms of applied art and design.
The exhibition STUDIO examines some of the
various readings of the artist’s studio through the
work of Norbert Tadeusz (1940-2011), a German
artist who frequently made the studio his subject,
while at the same time introducing the basic themes
and stylistic characteristics of Tadeusz’s oeuvre. A
contemporary of internationally recognized artists
such as Gerhard Richter, Sigmar Polke, Blinky
Palermo, Georg Baselitz, and Jörg Immendorff,
Tadeusz was associated with the so-called NeoExpressionist (or New Wild) German figurative
painting of the 1980s, though he always resisted
categorisation.
Over 40 years ago Japanese painter Hiroshi Harada
swapped his homeland for Paris, in search of a new
artistic creative language and structure. Even though
the rectangular doesn’t exist in nature, it has always
been Harada’s ultimate ambition to express all facets
of his private world within this well-defined shape.
Harada stayed true to the monochrome, until one
given day a burst of colour appeared in his black and
white world; the sparkling yellow is typical in many
of his works. The new vibrant colour palette
confirmed that Harada has essentially always been
looking for a way to give expression to his inner
happiness, spirituality and joie de vivre.
The Austrian ceramic artist Thomas Bohle is an
extraordinary figure in the field of ceramic vessels.
His double-walled objects, created at the wheel with
technical perfection, effortlessly transcend the
boundaries between ceramic and free art. Their
interior and exterior forms create an accentuated
contrast which opens up an exciting dialogue
between the vessel and the space. The publication
offers a fascinating overview of over twenty-five years
of vessel design by Thomas Bohle. Numerous
illustrations of individual objects, group photos and
details as well as expert essays uncover the beauty of
precise geometry combined with painterly glazes and
reveals just how progressive ceramics can be.

Dadaglobe was to be the definitive anthology of
the Dada movement. Had it been published in
1921 as planned, it would have constituted more
than 100 artworks by some thirty artists from
seven countries, showing Dada to be an artistic
and literary movement with global reach. Yet
mainly due to a lack of funding, it remained
unpublished. On the 100th anniversary of the
founding of Dada in Zürich, Dadaglobe
Reconstructed restores this fascinating literary
artefact with reproductions of the artworks
received by the Romanian poet and cofounder of
the Dada movement Tristan Tzara. Tzara’s call for
submissions in four categories - drawings,
photographs of artworks, photographic selfportraits, and book layouts - was met not merely
with existing works; the parameters for production
also served as a catalyst for the creation of many
new ones, including some of the Dada
movement’s most iconic works. The collection is
presented here for the first time, alongside essays
examining Tzara’s concept and the history of
Dada and Dadaglobe.
More than 17 years after her death, Ilse
D’Hollander’s oeuvre is still internationally
appreciated and frequently exhibited. This book
shows her enormous concentration and
condensed power. Works in gouache on paper
and oils on canvas stand central within
D’Hollander’s oeuvre. Given the technique and
the smaller format, the works on paper have their
own character and a specific intensity, more
intimate, more demarcated and concentrated. On
paper, a tension is created between the apparent
calmness of line and the nuanced use of colour on
the one hand, and the unrest inherent to the
capricious, irregular division of planes on the
other. Order and regularity go hand in hand with
doubt and movement. Ilse D’Hollander plays a
game of hide and seek. The process of painting
leaves its traces. The artist’s brushstrokes and
finger sweeps remain clearly visible in the paint,
and so make the work at once tangible and
personal.
Karel Appel: Works on Paper presents the artist’s
drawings, which have rarely been exhibited.
Appel did not consider his drawings byproducts
of painting. In spontaneous creative bursts, he
frequently produced works on paper that helped
him clarify his art as a whole. Thus, the childlike
creatures of the early years, the almost abstract
expressive outbursts of the 1950s, and the
experiments with collage can be experienced in a
completely unique way in his drawings.
Karel Appel (1921-2006) is one of the
Netherlands’ most outstanding artists. As a
cofounder of the CoBrA group, he was part of an
international network of avant-garde artists and
is regarded as one of the rejuvenators of post1945 art. In the 1950s he began spending long
periods of time in Paris and New York and soon
enjoyed international success. Today his colourful
sculptures can be found in many public squares,
and his often large-format paintings are in
museums around the world.

90 ART
As an ‘Englishman in New York’ since 1985, the
artist Bill Jacklin has concentrated on painting
‘urban portraits’ of the city in all its guises. As a
member of the Royal Academy in London,
Jacklin’s paintings have been exhibited at the
Marlborough Gallery in London and New York
since the 1980s and he has participated in
numerous one-man and group exhibitions around
the world from the 1970s until today. This first
full treatment of Jacklin’s New York paintings is a
visual celebration of the artist’s fascination with
his adopted New York City, its energy, its light,
its movement, and its people. The Foreword is by
Sting, an avid collector of Jacklin’s work as well as
a fellow ‘Englishman in New York’, who writes
on the artist and their relationship with the city.
Bo Bartlett is an American realist known for his
complex multi-layered narrative paintings.
Working in the tradition of realism that stretches
from Thomas Eakins and Winslow Homer to
Edward Hopper and Andrew Wyeth, Bartlett’s
bold narrative approach has made him one of the
leading painters of a generation of American
artists that redefined realist painting for our time.
The exquisitely designed volume is the first full
publication to document Bartlett’s evolution as
an artist, his personal creative process and to
place his work in the context of the longstanding tradition of American realism.
The book contains a review of Patrick Hamilton’s
artistic career. Driven by a desire to move
painting onto another plain, Hamilton has
created a body of work along object- and
concept-based lines with a foundation in his
interest towards cultural, historical and literary
research. Using the starting point of Santiago, the
city where he has lived and worked until recently,
Hamilton has woven together countless works.
The visual metaphors, popular myths and
historical events in them are given form in an
impeccable conceptual and visual presentation,
which he uses to look for answers to all of the
questions which arise on a daily basis in the
society, of which he forms a part as a citizen and
artist.
Trained at the École Nationale Supérieure des
Beaux-arts de Paris in the atelier of Georges
Jeanclos, Elsa Sahal quickly focused on working
with ceramics for their sensuality and fragility.
She experiments in particular with the idea of
volume and balance in sculpture, while returning
to an exploration of the themes of the body and
femininity. Ambiguous, dense, sensual and
colourful, her works oscillate between
anthropomorphic landscape and the landscaped
body, taking up Cézanne’s dream of uniting
women’s curves with the shoulders of hills. Elsa
Sahal conceives, kneads and then produces
complex and disturbing forms sustained by dense
colours and sublimated through enamel.

Armando Romero’s paintings often juxtapose his repainting of historical works by Old Masters like
Velazquez, and Veronese with images from popular
culture. This practice is typified in series like Las
Nuevas Tentaciones De San Antonio (2000) in which
he re-paints and re-presents Bosch’s triptych The
Temptations of St. Anthony (1501) but in addition to
the fantastic imagery typical of Bosch already in the
original, Romero adds Tweety, Pokémon, various
Looney Tunes and Disney characters, superheroes
including Superman, Spiderman, and the Fantastic
Four, the Jetsons, Topcat, Penelope Pitstop, the
Flintstones, Smurfs, and Scooby-Doo.
This book showcases the sculptural project by Cristina
Iglesias entitled Tres aguas, a trilogy spanning all of
Toledo to highlight the relationship between the city
and its river, the Tagus. Beginning on the river banks
at the Torre del Agua, then going up as far as the
Plaza del Ayuntamiento, the project reached the
highest point in the city, where the third installation
was put in place at the Santa Clara convent. The book
shows one of the largest works of contemporary
sculpture, a major expression of architecture and
sculpture along with riveting texts by Beatriz
Colomina, James Lingwood and Maria Warner, and
amazing photographs by Attilio Maranzano.
The artist Fritzia Irízar questions the value of money
and its purchasing power through objects taken out
of their common environment which take on
symbolic qualities. Irízar removes their monetary
value and transforms the perception that viewers have
of them.
This book is a review of two decades in the career of
eminent sculptor Javier Marín, providing an
exceptional opportunity to analyse the variety of his
work, including pieces that bear witness to his
technical mastery and the aesthetic qualities and
creativity which distinguish his sculptural works.
With its very high-quality images, this edition gives
readers the chance to experience each of the textures
in his works, which re-interpret and show a different
dimension of the aesthetics of human anatomy, as a
way of revealing many details, faces, busts, figures and
fragments therein.
Javier Marín (Michoacán, 1962) is a Mexican visual
artist, known mainly for his sculptural work involving
the topic of the human figure and for his aesthetic
exploration in both the field of fine arts and in the
world of decorative arts. He studied visual arts at the
UNAM’s Academia de San Carlos in Mexico and
held an individual exhibition for the first time ever in
1990. This book, in the form of a documentary
testimony, accompanies the exhibition Javier Marín Terra presented at the Palace of Iturbide in 2015.

Amadeo Modigliani
Over 15 years, Nicolas Provost fundamentally
changed video art. Nicolas Provost: Dream
Machine is the first overview of his work and a
visually challenging book, with texts by big
names, such as Neville Wakefield and Leo
Goldsmith. Nicolas Provost calls himself a
sculptor with film, or a creator of images and
sounds. With films like The Plot Point Trilogy and
The Invader, Nicolas Provost has built an
impressive oeuvre. This book talks about his
journey through the world of video art and films,
but it is also a visual discovery on its own. The
book features stills from Provost’s movies, images
of his video equipment, fragments from dialogues,
and texts by a number of internationallyrenowned authors.
From taboo to embarrassment, from prudishness
to awkwardness, from blushing to guilty pleasures.
This book, and the corresponding exhibition at
The Museum Dr. Guislain in Ghent, focuses on
the feeling that is omnipresent but difficult to
comprehend. ‘Shame,’ you may feel it when you’ve
said something inappropriate, or you may feel it as
a result of a physical imperfection, as a result of
poverty, or even psychological problems. With
objects from other cultures, historical psychiatry
documents, testimonies, essays and illustrations,
the exhibition and the book approach the feeling
from many different angles. Contemporary artists
categorise the feeling in paintings, sculptures,
photography and video.
The Inner Eye
Sophie Levy, Jeanne-Bathilde Lacourt and Marie-Amélie
Senot (Ed.)r
Amadeo Modigliani: The Inner Eye displays the dialogue that the young Italian artist
maintained with antic and extra-Western sculptures from 1910 to 1914. It specifically
highlights studies of heads and caryatides, and Modigliano’s patient analysis work,
such as modulating facial features.
Health and financial conditions forced Modigliani to renounce sculpture in 1914. The
second part of the book features portraits of Modigliani’s friends, as well as actors of
the Parisian avant-garde from Picasso’s circle, such as the writer Max Jacob, the
merchant Paul Guillaume, Moïse Kisling, Viking Eggeling, Jacques Lipchitz, Henri
Laurens and Lépold Survage. Beyond friendship, these portraits reveal artistic
exchanges, where painters and sculptors became Modigliani’s models. In his last years,
Modigliani perfected his portrait’s style, which made him successful: the frame
widens, his palette lightens under the influence of Cézanne. In 1918, he met Dutilleul,
who purchased around thirty of his paintings and numerous drawings between 1918
and 1946 and posed as his model in 1919.

“Belgian solutions is first of all a title, that became a

that I later began publishing on Facebook under this

Not every solution is an answer to a problem. The
Brussels-based artist David Helbich started
collecting ‘Belgian Solutions’ in 2006. Once he
started to share his photos online on Facebook in
2008 (the Belgian Solutions page has over 23,000

contributions by Belgian Solutions spotters all
over the world. Luster is publishing the third,
updated and improved edition of the original
publication.
In his work, Guy Leclef always aims to find the essence, purity and simplicity of
things. His signature eye for detail turns his art with paper into an experience. You
could even refer to it as poetic recycling. At the same time, his paper collages always
contain a fair amount of humour, hinting at everyday life. Pieces of paper used as
paint, thick or paper-thin strokes, queer, impregnated, cut and glued. They’re all used
as the raw materials for Leclef ’s art. A rich and varied oeuvre, in spite of - or thanks to
- him using paper waste as the building blocks of this sparkling art. Paper, used as
paint, to express life’s emotions, but Guy Leclef manages to continuously catch your
eye with his playful virtuosity.
Architecture and perspective are the common
denominators in the oeuvre of Hans
Vandekerckhove. Gimme Shelter illustrates 90 of
his paintings. Both at home and abroad, Hans
Vandekerckhove has been a big name in the art
world for quite some time. He has had (solo)
expositions in the SMAK museum in Ghent, and
the Mu.Zee museum in Ostend, as well as in
Amsterdam, Madrid and Frankfurt. In Gimme
Shelter, Hans has compiled all of his work, which
originated from his passion for architecture,
ranging from the archetypes from his youth,
when he had a studio in his uncle’s greenhouse,
modern architecture by Mies van de Rohe, and
the buildings by Peter Zumthor, to the need of a
‘home’, as a breeding ground for inspiration.
Guy Leclef
At first, Guy Leclef studied gemology, the science dealing with natural and artificial
gemstones. Via the diamond business and decorative paint techniques, with which he
painted decors for expositions and founded a successful company, he eventually ended
up in the world of paper.

Adolf Dietrich’s (1877-1957) work is regarded by
some as a prime example of 20th-century naïve
painting, while other scholars place him closer to
the post-expressionist movement of New
Objectivity. For the first time in nearly sixty years,
Dietrich’s work has been shown in a vast
retrospective at Kunstmuseum Olten in
Switzerland, in summer 2015 in which his
pictures were accompanied by paintings of artists
such as Cuno Amiet, Otto Dix, Giovanni
Giacometti, Ferdinand Hodler, Henri Rousseau,
or Félix Vallotton. This coinciding new
monograph is richly illustrated in colour
throughout, featuring some 160 works by Dietrich
and the other artists. The essays contextualise his
art and highlight Dietrichs’ lasting significance.
Invent the Future with
Elements of the Past
Alain Huck, born 1957, lives and works in
francophone Switzerland. He has created a body
of polymorphous works in a variety of media:
painting, photography, drawing, video, often
using text as well. In 2006 Huck started to work
on an extensive series of very large-scale charcoal
drawings, titled Salons noirs. This corpus now
comprises nearly 80 compositions. This new book
presents the entire series, completed by a
selection of other recent works by Alain Huck.
Julie Enckell Julliard’s essay examines the ‘Salons
noirs’ and suggests ways of approaching them,
and also refers to the various relations of Huck’s
work to that of other artists, such as Albrecht
Dürer, Arnold Böcklin, Robert Longo, or
Gerhard Richter.
Peter Liechti Dedications
Swiss artist El (Elisa) Frauenfelder, was born in
1979 in Zürich. Her work in painting and
drawing often shows snap-shots of empty
landscapes, townscapes, houses, or interiors. She
carries her camera wherever she travels, in the
plains of South Dakota, in Helsinki, or in the
Swiss countryside, always capturing new motifs
for her art. Sometimes sombre and dark-hued,
sometimes gaudy and lurid, Frauenfelder’s
pictures captivate the viewer’s eye with colours,
shapes, and motifs despite their sketchy, open
manner. El Frauenfelder has been awarded the
2015 Manor Art Prize in Switzerland. The new
book is published in conjunction with an
exhibition at Kunstmuseum Winterthur in fall
2015.

Stuttgart-based 4a Architekten have gained
much recognition for their public swimming
pools and spas. Yet the firm, established in 1990
by Matthias Burkart, Eberhard Pritzer, Alexander
von Salmuth, and Ernst Ulrich Tillmanns, has
also created a formidable work of cultural and
educational buildings, hotels, and housing. This
new monograph features seventeen realised
projects that are exemplary for 4a Architekten’s
approach and vision. The selection also reflects
the range of building tasks they cover. Richly
illustrated with images and plans, the book also
demonstrates the development of the firm’s
architectural language. Two essays take a look at
their working process and history, alongside three
shorter and more literary texts. The book is
completed with a catalogue of all their built and
unrealised projects.

At the 2014 International Architecture
Exhibition of the Venice Biennale, Hans Ulrich
Obrist, curator of the Swiss pavilion, realised a
display and a series of events referring to Lucius
Burckhardt (1925-2003). In the 1980s,
Burckhardt had proposed the concept of a science
of Strollology, based on his view that only by
strolling we truly perceive our environment.
Twelve Swiss artists were commissioned to
explore the exhibit in Venice and to develop the
art project Invent the Future with Elements of the
Past in Zürich, for which Burckhardt once again
proved inspirational. This new book documents
the project, featuring original contributions,
inserts, texts, images, and interviews by the
participating artists.
Peter Liechti (1951-2014) was a Swiss film author
and director, cinematographer, and producer. His
last and unfinished project Dedications he began
when he was already suffering from a terminal
illness. Originally intended to become a trilogy
dedicated to the Swiss writer Robert Walser
(1878-1956), the Dutch painter Vincent van
Gogh (1853-1880), and to the unknown Sudanese
Chief, the progress of his illness made him alter
his concept to a very personal review and reflection
on his life’s most significant personal and artistic
impressions and moments. Liechti’s widow and
working partner Jolanda Gsponer, together with a
group of his former collaborators, has assembled
all the material of Dedications in three parts to
preserve it and make the work visible.
Colour and light as sensory stimulus and the
phenomenon of light encountering surfaces are
core elements of the work of artists Silvia Gertsch,
born in Switzerland in 1963, and the German
Xerxes Ach, born in 1957. Gertsch works on
reverse-glass, using snapshots of young people in
summer. Ach has turned to micro-phenomena in
which light encounters various materials, is
refracted in various ways, and generates abstract
visual compositions. Coinciding with a dual
exhibition of Silvia Gertsch and Xerxes Ach at the
Museum of Fine Arts Bern, this new book features
their work from two decades. Richly illustrated, it
puts their differing pictorial languages in a dancelike dialogue, revealing each artist’s relation to
current artistic discourses.
Vaclav Pozarek, born 1940 in former
Czechoslovakia, is regarded as one of the most
significant figures in contemporary Swiss art.
After his emigration in 1968 he did his artistic
education at Hamburg’s University of Fine Arts
and at St. Martins’s School of Art in London. He
has been living and working in Bern since 1973,
creating a much-recognised oeuvre, mainly in
drawing and sculpture.
This new monograph, published to coincide with
a solo exhibition at the Kunstmuseum Solothurn
and designed by Pozarek himself, offers a survey
of his drawings, sculptures and installations from
the past ten years. The essays explore his work
and discuss his recent exhibitions.

Aided by the extensive private collection of the
Fondation CL Tibet, this richly illustrated volume
provides an outstanding review of several hundred
years of Buddhist art from the Himalayan region.
More than 200 representative works and ritual
objects - including metal statues of Buddhas,
bodhisattvas, and other deities; thangkas (scrolls)
and chörten (or stupas) and ornately carved book
covers and Tibetan musical instruments - are both
presented and described in detail against a
background of iconography and art history. It also
focuses in particular on the guru Rinpoche
Padmasambhava, who is considered the founder of
Buddhism in Tibet. For the first time in 25 years,
Michael Henss presents a new and comprehensive
overview of Himalayan art.
Thogchags, also termed ‘thunderbolt irons’ or ‘sky
irons’, are a special type of Tibetan amulet. From
the Tibetan perspective, the objects,
approximately 2 to 10 cm in size, have in the
truest sense of the word fallen from heaven or
have even been thrown from the sky by deities.
Traditionally a thogchag must be found on or in
the earth; according to oral lore, it lies at the
point where lightning has struck. Thogchags are
always of heavenly descent and command great
powers of protection. With its comprehensive
documentation of the diverse designs and forms
of thogchags, the publication is an iconographic
reference work on this extraordinary Tibetan
amulet.
Tsha-tsha are terracottas, or unfired earthenware
figures, in the form of cast-sculptured
stupas/chörten (reliquaries) or reliefs, which are
decorated in a variety of religious motifs in basrelief or half-relief. These votive offerings in earth
or loam are produced by hand by believers or
monks with models (casts) and serve many
different purposes in every day religious life.
With the depiction of over 360 objects, this book
offers an outstanding review of the diverse
manifestations and the extensive iconography of
these exceptional ritual objects from the
Buddhist cultural sphere.
Modern Indian Painting presents a survey of
Indian painting from the late 19th century to the
present day. Focusing on the private collection of
Jane and Kito de Boer, the book clearly delineates
major developments over a long period of time,
while explaining and illustrating them with
previously unpublished examples by many major
artists. Numbering around 1,000 works, the de
Boer collection is one of the largest and most
significant collections of modern Indian painting
in private hands. The book is based on fresh
research by leading authorities in the field, who
have studied the collection at first hand. The book
is thus essential to the specialist while at the same
time presenting a broad introduction to the field
for the benefit of the general reader.

Exciting, unexpected, impressionistic: the Slonem
bunny paintings run the gamut. A treasury filled
with enchanting four-colour and black-andwhite paintings by celebrated artist Hunt
Slonem, Bunnies features a foreword by
bestselling author John Berendt and an essay by
artist and gallerist, Bruce Helander. John
Berendt writes, “Every morning, upon rising - even
before he’s had his first cup of coffee - Hunt Slonem
performs his daily warm-ups… He approaches his
work table where a stack of small rectangular panels
awaits. In the course of the next half hour he will
have populated all the panels with rabbits. These
paintings are what he calls his warm-ups”. Limited
to 100 copies, each box containing a numbered
print.
This first book by famous textile artist Mister
Finch is a gorgeous collection of the artist’s
fantastical, one-of-a-kind creatures. Peek inside
Finch’s studio, a place brimming with buttons and
scraps of fabric, where spindly-legged spiders keep
watch over mischievous hares and carpet-winged
moths perch majestically atop bookshelves. Many
of these pieces were born of treasures lost and
forgotten: velvet curtains from an old hotel, a
threadbare wedding dress and a vintage apron
become birds and beasts, looking for new owners
and adventures. The pages of this book are strewn
with creatures who prove that anything is possible
in the fairytale world of Mister Finch.
The richly illustrated publication presents about
250 Inrō from the Anna and Christian Trumpf
collection. These small, multipartite receptacles
for seals and medicine, which were attached to a
belt with the aid of a toggle (Netsuke), came into
use in the 16th century and remained a
prominent accessory in Japanese menswear until
the late 19th century. The symbolic, often
narrative decoration conveys a valuable insight
into Japanese culture. Today the carefully and
lovingly worked, mostly lacquered Inrō enjoy
enormous popularity in collectors’ circles.
Following the inventory of the Trumpfs’ significant
Netsuke collection published in 2000, this is
another comprehensively annotated standard
work on Japanese belt decoration.
Since her creation in 1959, Barbie has broken

Queen, Diva and Celebrity, Barbie as Global
Icon, Barbie: The Icon celebrates the impact Barbie
has had in culture for three generations in
everything from style, to fashion, to careers, that

living legend.

100 CULTURAL HISTORY
Bruges 1914: a medium-sized Flemish city with a
medieval core and a brand-new modern harbour is
turned into a base for imperial Germany’s naval and
submarine war. Though close to the Western Front,
Bruges saw another face of war: that of military
occupation, of being made into a bastion for its
conqueror’s war, and of being bombed from the air as
a result. The story of Bruges in the First World War is
the story of a city that escaped destruction but faced
violence. It is the story of its wartime rulers and how
they saw their war effort. And it is the story of
civilians who, even under military domination, made
choices of their own.
In the autumn of 1985, a series of violent and bloody
robberies of Belgian supermarkets abruptly came to
an end. A group of unknown criminals, referred to as
‘The Gang of Nivelles’, was held responsible for these
heinous acts. In all, 28 people were killed. The father
of Jan Rosseel (1979) was one of them. In spite of a
thorough police investigation, a file of almost three
million pages, the perpetrators were never
apprehended. This period of terror and violence will
remain one of the darkest pages in Belgian history;
the case remains unresolved. This book is Jan
Rosseel’s personal search for The Gang of Nivelles.
Life Beyond the Big Top is a photo book that captures
the history of the Tai Thean Kew Circus, a once-great
Chinese circus established in Singapore in 1929. The
collection of old photographs and surviving props
and costumes that makes up this visual
documentation belongs to Sze Ling Fen and Wong
Fu Qi, lead performers of the circus. Authored by
their granddaughter, Adele Wong, be invited to visit
her grandparents, listening and looking as the story
about the humble beginnings of a pioneering, familyrun Chinese circus unfolds.
The Monsoon War is an honest and gritty eye-witness
account of the 1965 India-Pakistan war, as it
happened, retold by two men who fought it. Their
no-holds-barred narrative brings to life the various
battles fought, and the human stories of the many
brave soldiers who fought for both countries. A
landmark war that witnessed one of world history’s
most noteworthy tank battles (the Battle of Phillora),
the events of 1965 are remembered as among the
most significant victories of the modern Indian
Armed Forces.
From one of the great bon vivants of our age comes
this witty memoir of an extraordinary life lived
among a glittering social set. Acclaimed designer and
founder of Pret-a-Porter Marc Rosen shares in this
delightful reminiscence the stories of his encounters
with the great beauties, talents, and personalities of
the last 50 years. Marc has rubbed shoulders with
everyone - from Hollywood royalty (including Helen
Hayes, Bette Davis, and his own wife, Arlene Dahl,
the girl for whom Technicolor was invented) to
actual royalty (Princess Grace of Monaco, the
Romanovs) to the moguls of the beauty and fashion
worlds (Charles Revson, Karl Lagerfeld) over the
course of his brilliant career.

Beginning with rockabilly, moving on to folk
music, sliding over to electric, and falling into a
psychedelic phase, like a chameleon Bob Dylan
has changed his skin repeatedly over the years,
juggling his image with apparent ease and
subverting the prevailing social and aesthetic
models each time. The clothes, faces, music and
places of those years become subjects to colour in,
paper-dolls to dress, and board games to
assemble, while the characters of his songs
provide the members of a colourful circus. This is
the ultimate collector’s activity-book.
An all-access pass to the private world of Elvis

pop culture icon of the 20th century.

102 MISCELLANEOUS
Lawyer and forensic auditor Flip de Mey has for
years studied the files on the assassination of
President John F. Kennedy. His research, based
on the original documents, led to a startling and
ground-breaking theory, which he described in
Cold Case Kennedy. In a follow-up to that
bestseller, The Lee Harvey Oswald Files, de Mey
investigates exactly what part Oswald played in
the Kennedy assassination. With the same
attention to detail that enabled him to prove
Kennedy was the victim of a conspiracy, he
examines the files and presents new information
derived from unique photographs of Oswald’s
rifle and contact with two of Oswald’s friends.
De Mey’s conclusion is unambiguous: Oswald
could not have killed Kennedy. So who did, and
why? Flip de Mey’s answers to these questions
are shrewd and supported by a multiplicity of
arguments.

such declarations of love as “Reading is that

(Groucho Marx) and wise statements to mull
over, including “We can destroy what we have
written, but we cannot unwrite it” (Anthony
Burgess). Every quote is presented in a unique,
original and tailor-made design by Dooreman,
with an adapted font or special letter shapes.
Where applicable, the quote has also been
provided in the original language alongside the
English, with a brief explanation, such as the
author and context.
