The art of likeness. The spectrum of today’s portraiture, from caricature to realism

The field of illustration has flourished over the last decade, with professionals working both by computer and by hand. In illustration, the single most challenging and captivating subject has been the portrait, frequently used in editorials, advertising, products, and most recently, being the subject of major exhibitions. The book gathers together the exclusive (and frequently unpublished) portrait work of over 80 illustrators from all over the world, many of whom were featured in Illustration Now!, including Aaron Jasinski , André Carrilho, Hanoch Piven, Anita Kunz, Jody Hewgill, and Dugald Stermer. The book also features an index of subjects and an introduction by Steven Heller.

The editor:
Julius Wiedemann was born in Brazil, studied graphic design and marketing, and was an art editor for digital and design magazines in Tokyo. His many TASCHEN digital and media titles include Illustration Now!, Advertising Now, Logo Design, and Brand Identity Now!

Inside the Human Body features fascinating detailed images of the human figure from the 19th century. In the mid- and late 19th century, substantial advancements in medical science were made, in part as a result of the development of new instruments that facilitated new ways of looking into the human body. The collection of spectacular drawings in this book is the result of the close observation of the human body during this period. Included are views of the major organ, skeletal and muscular systems. Another unique feature is the free CD packed with the book: it contains digital files of all illustrations for immediate use, either to print for further manual elaboration or as a digital template.

Inside an art gallery, it is easy to forget that the paintings there are the end products of a process involving not only creative inspiration, but also plenty of physical and logistical details.

It is these "cruder," more mundane aspects of a painter's daily routine that motivated Brooklyn artist Joe Fig to embark almost ten years ago on a highly unorthodox, multilayered exploration of the working life of the professional artist.

Determined to ground his research in the physical world, Fig began constructing a series of diorama-like miniature reproductions of the studios of modern art's most legendary painters, such as Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning.

A desire for firsthand references led Fig to approach contemporary artists for access to their studios. Armed with a camera and a self-made "Artist's Questionnaire," Fig began a journey through the workspaces of some of today's most exciting contemporary artists.

Inside the Painter's Studio collects twenty-four remarkable artist interviews, as well as exclusive visual documentation of their studios. Featured artists were asked a wide range of questions about their day-to-day creative life, covering everything from how they organize their studios to what painting tools they prefer.

Artists open up about how they set a creative mood, how they choose titles, and even whether they sit or stand to contemplate their work. Also included are a selection of Fig's meticulously detailed miniatures. In this context Fig's diminutive sculptures - reproducing minutiae of the studio, from paint-tube labels and paint splatters on the floor to the surface texture of canvases - become part of a fascinating new form of portraiture as diorama. Inside the Painter's Studio offers a rare look into the self-made universe of the artist's studio.

Inside the Painter's Studio features interviews with Gregory Amenoff, Ross Bleckner, Chuck Close, Will Cotton, Inka Essenhigh, Eric Fischl, Barnaby Furnas, April Gornik, Jane Hammond, Mary Heilmann, Bill Jensen, Ryan McGinness, Julie Mehretu, Malcolm Morley, Steve Mumford, Philip Pearlstein, Matthew Ritchie, Alexis Rockman, Dana Schutz, James Siena, Amy Sillman, Joan Snyder, Billy Sullivan, and Fred Tomaselli.

Ce livre, publié pour la première fois en 1897 et constamment réédité depuis, est une véritable encyclopédie du travail du bois. Il comporte trois volumes soit plus de 200 planches qui rassemblent les principes de base nécessaires à l’exécution des ouvrages de menuiserie traditionnelle. À l’origine destiné aux apprentis menuisiers, il est devenu aujourd’hui un classique incontournable qui présente des réalisations simples et d’autres exceptionnelles, réalisées avec des techniques de toujours : l’art du trait et du dessin, rarement abordé en menuiserie, est ici développé clairement.

 Tome 2 : après les indispensables fondamentaux du tome 1, l’auteur rentre maintenant dans le vif du sujet pour cette étude des
pièces de menuiserie.

Il commence par un survol de l’outillage nécessaire au menuisier, puis décrit les principaux assemblages, y compris certains qui
semblent impossibles à première vue, les soi-disant’’secrets du compagnon ’’. Suivent une étude des coupes, puis celle des principaux
ouvrages de menuiserie, depuis les croisées jusqu’aux plafonds.

Le second volume se termine par un traité des escaliers : leur histoire et leur réalisation, en commençant par des ouvrages simples comme des escabeaux ou des escaliers à limons droits, pour se terminer par des prouesses de l’art du trait comme l’escalier qui tourne autour d’une bouteille ou celui à double départ enlacé. Les plafonds rampants ne sont pas oubliés car ils présentent des difficultés spécifiques de tracé que l’auteur résout avec simplicité.

Sommaire

De la menuiserie :

Outillage, assemblages, secrets du compagnon, coupes diverses.
Croisées, persiennes et jalousies, parquets, portes, devantures de boutique, casiers, stalles, volets, plafonds.

Des escaliers, des plafonds d’escaliers :

Marchepied, escabeau, échelle double, échelle de meunier, escabeau à rampes pour bibliothèque, escaliers divers et leur mise au
plan, volutes, limons, escaliers doubles, plafonds rampants, lambris rampants.

Tome 1 : ce premier volume propose un retour auxnotions de bases (le nom des choses, tracer une ligne, le contexte architectural d’une pièce de menuiserie) pour les éclaircir et les approfondir.

Il commence par un dictionnaire qui concerne à la fois le travail du bois (outillage, assemblages, pièces de menuiserie diverses) et l’architecture (éléments de construction, charpentes). Il se poursuit avec un traité de géométrie : l’histoire de cette science est suivie d’un long développement sur la géométrie descriptive, la plus utilisée dans le travail du bois. Sont successivement passés en revue les instruments de tracé et de dessin ; les tracés des lignes, des courbes, des surfaces, des volumes ; leur développement, les pénétrations. Ce précis de géométrie appliqué au bois est complété par un court traité de perspective et de dessin des ombres.

Pour terminer ce premier volume, l’architecture, que Léon Jamin considère comme indissolublement liée à la menuiserie qui est son« soutien indispensable », est décrite en détail à travers son histoire et une étude approfondie des ordres d’architecture. Même si l’auteur semble s’éloigner de son sujet, il a toujours en tête le travail du bois, et chaque détail mentionné concerne directement le menuisier.

Tome 3 : ce dernier volume traite surtout des tracés difficiles concernant les pièces biaises et courbes.

Il commence par un traité des arêtiers. Même s’ils sont du ressort du charpentier, l’auteur les étudie néanmoins car la compréhension de leur tracé est la clé de nombreux problèmes de menuiserie : le tracé des arêtiers droits permet la réalisation de combles en tout genre mais aussi de queues d’aronde biaises, de trémies diverses, de tabourets, de tables et pupitres. L’étude des arêtiers courbes permettra au lecteur de s’attaquer aux culs-de lampe et autres ouvrages de menuiserie cintrés demandant de bonnes connaissances en géométrie pratique.

L’auteur s’étend ensuite sur les ouvrages cintrés en plan et en élévation, en commençant par les plus simples comme les chambranles ou les croisées, pour s’initier peu à peu à la difficulté du tracé des arrière-voussures ou des travaux d’église. L’ouvrage continue par la
description de réalisations diverses : tables à coulisses, agencement de magasins, lambris.

L’ouvrage se termine par quelques remarques sur les bois, et par quelques pages sur la résistance des matériaux rendue facile à appliquer grâce à quelques tableaux chiffrés.
