Чорний колір, найпотужніший і найпереважніший не-кольоровий, є символом Dolce & Gabbana та втілює протилежні почуття, що приваблюють: чуттєвість і суворість, трагедію і кохання.

У цій чорно-білій книзі великого формату великі майстри італійського та міжнародного репортажу протиставляються найважливішим фешн-фотографам, які інтерпретували чорний колір Dolce & Gabbana з-за своїх об'єктивів з 1980-х років. Серед них Гельмут Ньютон, Інез і Вінуд, Джузеппе Леоне, Енцо Брай, Сальво Алібріо, Серджіо Ларрен, Бруно Барбей, Еллен фон Унверт, Джан Паоло Барб'єрі, Фабріціо Феррі та Юрген Теллер.

У цих фотографічних шедеврах, від рекламних кампаній до найвідоміших редакційних статей, зірки кіно, розваг та моди, серед яких Моніка Беллуччі та Ізабелла Росселліні, чергуватимуться з вражаючими портретами звичайних людей, деякі з яких ніколи раніше не бачили широкі глядачі та публікуються тут вперше, у постійному діалозі, в центрі якого Dolce & Gabbana Black.

Part of a well-known book series on contemporary art jewelry by jeweler Nicolas Estrada, this completely new edition of New Earrings (not a single piece from the 2013 edition has been included) highlights the work of some of the most exciting and innovative international jewelry artists working today. The more than 550 pieces featured by 198 jewelers from all over the world break away from the traditional notion of jewelry making to stake out new terrain. They represent a variety of creative approaches and methods, from more traditional to strikingly avant-garde creations, that speak and inspire, embodying all the ingenuity, flair, eloquence, sensitivity and individual freedom of the diverse creators. Some of the earrings are made using unconventional materials like porcelain or plastic while others use classical materials such as gold in ways that provocatively go against the grain of convention, reflecting the artist's personal identity and tastes or containing a subtle commentary on contemporary concerns.

Aimed at students, professionals and jewelry lovers, this second edition of the book published in 2013, has a new layout and concludes with a brief description of the careers and web pages of the featured artists.

About the Author:

Ana de Izaguirre is a linguist, editor, and writer. After graduating in philology, she completed studies in publishing, graphic design, and photography.

A detailed and abundantly-illustrated reference that focuses on the innovative curved score folding for sheet metal techniques to create beautiful, dynamic three-dimensional forms, much like metal origami, in jewellery and metalsmithing.

Anastasia Young and Paul Wells, both renowned London-based jewellers, authors and lecturers, have created a practical visual handbook on curved scoring and folding techniques applied to jewellery and metalsmithing for small objects. The book’s clear, hands-on approach, with explanatory photographs for each step, makes it an invaluable resource. Readers will discover a variety of ways to score and fold metal and give it different finishes, shaping flat sheets into to visually organic forms, including guides on the tools needed for each method. A final section contains useful resources, from a detailed analysis of score depth based on the gauge of the wire used to information about where to source materials and facts about metalworking and jewellery in general.

About the Authors:

Anastasia Young is a London-based jewelry artist, author and lecturer whose work has been exhibited internationally. Young's eclectic jewelry is often project-based and driven by a combination of ideas and technical investigation; she uses narrative to explore both the design of a piece and its display when not being worn. Examples of her work are held in the permanent collections of the Science Museum, London and Central Saint Martins Museum. Young is a graduate of the Royal College of Art and Central Saint Martins, where she lectures and teaches short courses in jewelry making. Having written three technical jewellery books (Thames & Hudson, A&C Black) which have been translated into seven languages, Young is well known as an educator and through her teaching and writing. In 2017, Anastasia was appointed to the board of the Association for Contemporary Jewellery, and is also the Technical Features Editor of its biannual magazine, Findings.

Paul Wells is an award-winning London-based silversmith and jeweller, renowned for his use of direct metalworking techniques. Wells' silverware makes innovative use of fold-forming and he has developed a method of creating curved scores which can be used to fold sheet metal in a visually stunning and unique style. His technique has been recognized by Goldsmiths' Crafts and Design Council with two Gold Awards for Technological Innovation. Wells' exploration of this technique has led to the production of intrinsically organic silver forms which almost appear to have grown themselves into existence, creating confounding biomorphic designs that are both functional and decorative. Having taught at several London colleges for two decades, Paul Wells is a respected educator and keen advocate of fold-forming, and has contributed to many books published by Quarto, Thames & Hudson and A&C Black.

New Necklaces is the third book curated by jeweller and author Nicolas Estrada. A very special selection of impressive pieces by more than 180 artists from all over the world, this book showcases the current trends in contemporary jewelry and how boundaries in concept, materials and techniques are being pushed by jewellery designers today. From those that look back to classic forms and materials to the most daring, experimental and surprising ideas, each of the 500 necklaces included in this book has something that makes it unique and relates strongly to today's social, cultural and artistic reality. With prefaces by German jeweller Julia Wild and Leo Caballero, owner of the Barcelona gallery Klimt 02, specialized in contemporary jewelers.

The book comes with to copyright free vector-based templates and dielines that can be uploaded to a cnc machine and be reproduced and used. Each of these projects is the product of ongoing learning and evolution, and each draws on creative restlessness and the desire to discover new paths, explore fresh possibilities and take risks. All of them are illustrated with enlightening, high quality photographs and stencils that reveal the different techniques and simple, clear texts that explain the materials used in the production. The book consists of three sections that group projects together according to their degree of complexity, from the simplest proposals to the most sophisticated, within a wide range of sectors and applications. Each project is unique and is presented with all the details and information that readers need to be able to reproduce it on their own.

The book's premise is that the material presented serves as a source of inspiration for readers to open up that magic window of creativity and then adapt the designs to their specific needs, play with them and take on the challenge of discovering new forms and structures.

Дивовижний архів пам'ятних речей Транспортного управління Нью-Йорка пропонує унікальний погляд на минуле міста.

Книга New York City Transit Authority: Objects виникла як фотографічний експеримент. У 2011 році нью-йоркський фотограф Браян Келлі почав документувати колекції використаних MetroCards у своїй бруклінській студії, розташовуючи їх у різні сітки з метою вдосконалення освітлення зображення. Його брат запропонував зробити сітки цікавішими, знайшовши інші типи карток. Вичерпавши пошуки викинутих MetroCards на багатьох із 472 станцій метро міста, Келлі звернувся до eBay за новими знахідками.

Онлайн-кроляча нора дала йому прискорений курс з історії транспорту Нью-Йорка. Він виявив жетони, що датуються 1860 роком, корінець квитка 1885 року, коли проїзд поїздом через Бруклінський міст коштував три центи, а також латки, сірникові коробки, жетони, розклади руху, значки та знаки, опублікувавши свої фотографії цих знахідок у Tumblr та Instagram. Шість років потому багато співробітників MTA слідкують за його проєктом та підтримують його, іноді звертаючись до нього з інформацією та порадами щодо рідкісних предметів. У міру зростання колекції Келлі усвідомив, що не існує порівнянних цифрових архівів, які б документували еволюцію транспорту міста.

______________

New York City Transit Authority: Objects містить понад 400 артефактів, пов'язаних з нью-йоркським метро, ​​зібраних та задокументованих фотографом Браяном Келлі.

Келлі почав колекціонувати квитки MTA MetroCards у 2011 році, і його швидко захопили інші об'єкти, пов'язані з метро. Цей каталог є першим у своєму роді — він представляє раніше незібраний архів одноденних документів, починаючи з 1850-х років.
