With 1,200 works, including 250 paintings created by the artist since the previous edition, this newly expanded book on this much admired and very influential British painter is now available in an accessibly priced edition.

This is the most comprehensive monograph to date on Frank Auerbach (1931–), one of the preeminent artists of our age, widely admired for his vivid, impulsive depictions of the world around him. Often compared to Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud in terms of the revolutionary and powerful nature of his work, Auerbach crafts depictions of people and the urban landscapes near his London studio that make him one of the greatest painters alive today. Spanning the length of his career from the 1950s to the present, this expanded edition includes 250 additional works to bring it up to date. In the back of the book there is a small-scale chronological sequencing of full-color reproductions, which depicts nearly every painting made by the artist, from his student years up until this publication. At age 90, he looks back over his life and his work, rich with breakthroughs in painting and masterful individuality.

Praise for earlier edition:
“The constant painter: a rare interview with Frank Auerbach... A weighty monograph filled with photographs of his life’s work, written by William Feaver, is published [and] underscore[s] his position as a Grand Old Man of British Painting.”
—London Evening Standard

“This definitive account of Auerbach’s work and life includes excellent large-scale reproductions of 200 paintings and an illustrated catalogue of some 1,000 more, lively, pertinent interpretations from Feaver, the artist’s long-term friend, critical supporter and model, and engaging interviews and photographs.”
—The Financial Times

About the Author:

William Feaver is a painter, writer, critic, and one of Auerbach’s regular sitters. He is the author of Lucian Freud (Rizzoli, 2007) and was the curator of Lucian Freud (Tate, 2002) and Freud & Auerbach (V&A Museum, 2006).

Історія Maison FRED – це історія справді видатного джентльмена, який, будучи молодим чоловіком, щедро обдарованим природними талантами, вірив, що для нього немає нічого неможливого.

У 1936 році Фред Самуель відкрив свій перший бутік за адресою 6 Rue Royale у Парижі, де він привніс свіжий та динамічний дух у свої ювелірні вироби, що відображали яскраве сонячне світло Аргентини, його батьківщини та дому дитинства. Від культового браслета Force 10 до колекції Pretty Woman, його спадщина наповнила Maison унікальною індивідуальністю, виділяючи його серед усіх конкурентів.

Як частина амбітного проекту з формування спадщини Maison FRED, самобутнього французького творця дорогоцінних прикрас, ця книга є сімейною історією, оспівуванням надзвичайних коштовностей і, перш за все, даниною пам'яті засновника Maison FRED, чиї цінності та дух продовжують надихати сучасних ювелірів. Спираючись на численні архівні документи, дослідження гуашевих візерунків та чудові зразки дорогоцінного каміння, цей том зображує весь масштаб багатої та живої спадщини, втілення та джерело винахідливості для молодих поколінь та творців сьогодення та завтрашнього дня.

Про автора:

Історик і журналіст Вінсент Мейлан — відомий спеціаліст з високого ювелірного мистецтва. Він є автором кількох біографій та праць, присвячених історії дорогоцінного каміння.

Vever’s La Bijouterie Française au XIXem Siècle was first published in France between 1906–08: it has been the bible of all jewellery experts, buyers, sellers, scholars and historians ever since. Only 1,000 copies were originally produced, and it has been out of print for many years, appearing only rarely in the auction houses where it fetches very large sums.

This volume – the first-ever complete translation into English – includes over 1400 illustrations: photographs, sketches for jewels and prints from fashion magazines. 136 colour photographs of jewels now in the Musée des Arts Decoratifs are new to this edition.

All the great and now more obscure jewellers are included in the text and illustrations: Alphonse Fouquet, Boucheron, Falize, Froment-Maurice, Cartier, Chaumet, Georges Fouquet, Gaillard, Vever, Lalique, and many many more.

The discussion in the text is not only of the individual jewels and types of jewellery but also includes many entertaining anecdotes about the jewellers' relations with their customers and with society in general. Being himself a jeweller, Henri Vever was able to talk personally with all the people he writes about (or their followers), so the book has an unusual degree of authority.

Видатна колекція французького живопису Шотландської національної галереї повністю описана в цьому двотомному ілюстрованому каталозі.

Спираючись на великі наукові дослідження, ця вичерпна праця включає багатьох видатних імен, зокрема Моне, Дега, Сезанна, Пуссена, Ватто та Делакруа.

З моменту відкриття у 1859 році колекція французького живопису Шотландської національної галереї постійно зростала, відображаючи зміну смаків та пріоритетів, завдяки натхненним та пізнавальним покупкам і численним щедрим пожертвам. Захоплива історія колекції розповідається у вступному есе.

Кожного художника представляє стисла біографія, після якої йде дослідження його окремих робіт, що містить найновіші дослідження. Цей каталог, що ілюструє та описує 189 творів мистецтва, є вичерпним джерелом інформації про французький живопис у національній колекції Шотландії.

Про автора:

Дослідження та написання підготовлено Майклом Кларком, кавалером Ордена Британської імперії, колишнім директором Шотландської національної галереї, та професором Френсісом Фаул, старшим куратором Національних галерей Шотландії, з урахуванням приміток щодо збереження від Леслі Стівенсон, старшого реставратора картин Національних галерей Шотландії.

On a hot summer night in August of 1973, DJ Kool Herc and his sister, Cindy, put on a “back to school jam” in the rec room of their apartment block at 1520 Sedgwick Avenue in the West Bronx. The rest is history. The birth of hip hop rippled out across the globe, influencing music and fashion for generations.

Fresh Fly Fabulous: 50 Years of Hip Hop Style draws on the experiences and memories of those who were there, from a foreword by Slick Rick, to interviews with Disco Fever club owner Sal Abbatiello and designers Dapper Dan and April Walker, to chapters from Vibe stylist Emil Wilbekin and former editor of The Source Kim Osorio. Topics cover the range of hip hop’s influential style over the past half century, tracing the evolution from early hip hop style, born of aspiration, individuality, and practicality to contemporary fashion steeped in luxury brands.

Hip hop style is a local story, told through spotlights on Times Square as an early fashion space, as well as an international phenomenon, shown in the prominence of hip hop fashion leaders on red carpets. Inventiveness, the art of the remix, and a diverse set of influences are consistent themes in sections that examine hip hop style from hair and nails to shoes and sneakers.

Fresh Fly Fabulous is the definitive source for hip hop style, brought to life by the groundbreaking photographers who captured it firsthand, including Janette Beckman, Jamel Shabazz, and Ernie Paniccioli.

About the Author:

Elizabeth Way serves as associate curator at The Museum at FIT and author of Black Designers in American Fashion. Elena Romero serves as assistant professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology and is a correspondent for CUNY-TV's magazine show LATINAS. Slick Rick is an iconic rapper, producer, and trendsetter whose hip hop classic with Doug E. Fresh "La Di Da Di" (1986) helped establish hip hop’s love affair with fashion.

Frida Kahlo is the most famous Latin-American painter of the 20th century and a fundamental figure in Mexican art

She met Pablo Picasso and André Bretón; she was a friend of Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky and of poet Pablo Neruda. She received at her home writers, artists, film directors, doctors, politicians, photographers... Diego Rivera, the most recognised artist of Mexican mural art and Frida´s husband, described her in this manner: “Your genius is in the painting and in your image. Decidedly, there is no other living painter that can do what you do. You have laid (Te has echado al pico) with the whole painter race”.

Frida Kahlo (1907-1954) is, without doubt, the most famous Latin-American painter of the 20th century and a fundamental figure in Mexican art. Her work has been celebrated internationally as emblematic of Mexican national and indigenous traditions, and by feminists for its uncompromising depiction of the female experience and form. This fabulously illustrated volume brings together a series of stunning portraits, each one giving readers a glimpse into the many and varied ways in which Frida Kahlo has inspired countless artists across the globe.

Since the 1970s, the medium of video and multimedia art practice has been closely linked to the subcultural and countercultural movements. Art and music videos in particular demonstrate great subversive potential: artists and musicians oppose traditional values, exploring and repeatedly transgressing social norms and gender stereotypes. This publication reviews artistic strategies in the context of a history of punk and its offshoots, combining scholarly opinions from the fields of art history, queer theory, media studies, gender studies, postcolonial studies, and cultural studies on an equal footing with field reports from the practice of alternative archives and artistic image essays.

Fiona Banner, Phyllida Barlow, Anthony Caro, Richard Deacon, Laura Ford, Antony Gormley, Mona Hatoum, Susan Hiller, Anish Kapoor, Tania Kovats, Richard Long, David Nash, Cornelia Parker, Marc Quinn, Peter Randall-Page, Eva Rothschild, Richard Wentworth, Rachel Whiteread, Richard Wilson and Bill Woodrow - these are the sculptors who have helped define sculpture, and here they are in their own words. From the Sculptor's Studio is a unique collection of personal conversations with 20 seminal artists, each of whom have created iconic work, exhibited worldwide, and pushed past the boundaries of sculpting in their own way.

From the Sculptor's Studio contains 165 colour images of the artists' work, as well as portraits of each of the sculptors.

Найглибший та найповніший огляд життя та кар'єри одного з першопрохідців покоління графіті.

Сформувавши свій графічний стиль, малюючи підземні переходи в Нью-Йорку наприкінці 1970-х років, Футура був серед перших графіті-художників, чиї роботи були представлені в сучасних галереях на початку 1980-х років, де його картини ділили простір з роботами Кіта Харінга, Жана-Мішеля Баскія та Кенні Шарфа. Оскільки комерціалізація вуличної культури в 1990-х роках надихала на співпрацю з модними та лайфстайл-брендами, роботи Футури рухалися до більш вишуканого вираження його абстрактного стилю графіті. Замовлення від брендів, що визначали епоху, таких як A Bathing Ape, Stüssy, Supreme та Mo' Wax, призвели до того, що його роботи були канонізовані як елементарний компонент вуличної естетики.

Тут, серед ніколи раніше не публікованих репродукцій ранніх картин та малюнків, зібрано архів особистих фотографій та ефемерних матеріалів, який показує, наскільки невід'ємною частиною Футури був в еволюції вуличного мистецтва та культури. Прокладена через понад сорок років роботи та інтерв'ю з ключовими гравцями кар'єри Футури, ця книга є одночасно вичерпною монографією легенди сучасного мистецтва та незамінним розділом в історії графіті.

Про автора:

Футура — вуличний художник, який народився та виріс у Нью-Йорку. Його кар'єра розпочалася в 1970-х роках під назвою Futura 2000; за десятиліття, що минули, його творчість розширилася від вагонів метро до образотворчого мистецтва та комерційної співпраці з такими брендами, як Nike, Supreme, Undercover та Virgil Abloh. Він живе та працює в Брукліні, Нью-Йорк.

Did you know that jewellery predates clothes? The oldest known piece is a set of 100, 000-year-old beads, made from Nassarius shells.

Liza Urla advises us not to look at the eyes when meeting a new person, but instead to look at their jewellery. She describes it as the ultimate means of self-expression, essential to our identification as humans. “Jewellery is our armour,” she says, “and precious stones our amulets”. In this book, she journeys from continent to continent, chronicling the pieces that capture her imagination and her heart.

Although many of the pictures are from the street, defining the wearer’s style on the day they were taken, Urla has been lucky enough to access people’s personal jewellery boxes. As she says, the best pieces are always in private collections. Urla’s favourite finds are presented alongside her own jewellery styling, in collaboration with various designers from the jungles of Brazil, the beaches of Mexico, or the streets of London, NYC, Paris or Moscow.

Georg Baselitz enters a dialogue with the Old Masters - invited by Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna, the acclaimed German painter and sculptor engages in a visual conversation. Baselitz himself curated this selection of works, focusing exclusively on nude painting. Both the exhibition and the catalogue revolve around this elemental human state, and its fundamental role in European art.

From the beginning of his career, Baselitz’s work has been informed by a pronounced awareness of art history, above all he was inspired by Mannerism’s break with classical rules. Insights into the history of nude painting, as well into the topicality of painting itself, emerge from this encounter of Baselitz’s works with historical paintings of an idealized beauty from Kunsthistorisches Museum. The carefully chosen juxtapositions open up a space in which one can reflect and experience the essence of painting anew.

About the Artist:

Georg Baselitz (*1938, Deutschbaselitz) is without a doubt one of the most influential painters and sculptors of our time. His work eludes easy categorization, but has continuously returned to his search for a new approach to updating classic figurative painting. In a celebrated turning point in 1969, he literally turned his paintings upside down and thereby managed to change the public’s viewing habits, and to sharpen their perceptions.
