Vernon and Monticello. Centered on his intriguing synthesis of the American republic’s architectural and democratic traditions, Allan Greenberg’s essay moves across geography and through history as the renowned architect and scholar makes the case that America’s architectural tradition and political ideals are deeply connected. At the core of the American democratic architectural tradition is the modest, single-family house, which gave rise to the statehouse, the courthouse, the firehouse, the schoolhouse, the jailhouse, and the President’s house (as it was known before it became the White House). Generously illustrated and skillfully written, Architecture of Democracy traces a common line from the earliest colonial settlements to the Western frontier of the nineteenth century and today’s ultramodern city centers. The volume will imbue in its readers a newfound appreciation for the democratic ideals that American architecture strives to express and uphold. Allan Greenberg ranks among the top architects active today. Educated at the Yale School of Architecture under Paul Rudolf, Greenberg has been widely influential in furthering architectural scholarship and practice through his writings, public lectures, teaching, and commissions.

In his own time, La Fontaine was considered a vagabond, a dreamer, and a lover of pleasure for its own sake. Because of the universal nature of his fables, La Fontaine's poems about industrious ants, brave lions, and carefree grasshoppers are still widely read and quoted in English.

Oscar Niemeyer is one of the greatest architects of our time. Hugely influential, his work has added a new dimension to modern architecture in the twentieth century. The designer of Brasilia showed that the rhythmic, sensuous lines of Brazilian Modernism were as legitimately modern as the rectilinear lines of the Bauhaus. Oscar Niemeyer Houses showcases the houses built by this seminal modern master in a lavish format that finally does justice to his extraordinary work. Viewed as a collection, these houses serve to demonstrate the wide range of Niemeyer’s prodigious genius. The designs show a personal and eclectic facet to Niemeyer’s creative imagination, a side of the master little known and under-appreciated. Often built for family members or major clients, they show a wealth of solutions that respond to a wide range of sites: the steep hillsides of Rio, the Atlantic beach shore, the rain forest, and the residential neighborhoods of Rio and Sao Paulo. This celebrated work stands as an enduring and notable tribute to one of the last of the international masters of Modernism. Alan Weintraub is a widely published photographer whose most recent books are Frank Lloyd Wright: Houses and Bay Area Style. Alan Hess, an architect and architecture critic of the San Jose Mercury News, is the author of Googie: Fifties Coffee Shop Architecture, and with Alan Weintraub, The Architecture of John Lautner.

Since starting their practice in 1986, Iranian-born, American-educated sisters Gisue and Mojgan Hariri have earned widespread praise for their ambitious body of work. Their up-to-the-minute recasting of classical modernist principles has made them a source of continuing inspiration to design students and professionals alike. Over the course of recent years, the Hariris’ portfolio has expanded from small-scale commissions to widely celebrated projects, including the much lauded “Digital House” and the first house to be completed at The Houses at Sagaponac, the ambitious Hamptons development. Among the projects featured in Hariri & Hariri: Houses—illustrated in plans, drawings, and splendid full-color photography—are a new house for the AQUA development in Miami Beach; spectacular urban renovations in New York City; and magnificent new houses across the country, as well as international projects, all of which demonstrate the ability of the Hariris to combine modernist rigor with what New Yorker architecture critic Paul Goldberger identified as an “understanding of the patterns of everyday life.” Gisue Hariri and Mojgan Hariri established the architecture firm Hariri & Hariri in 1986. Gisue Hariri has been an adjunct professor of architecture at Columbia University and a visiting critic at Cornell University, McGill University, and Parsons School of Design. Richard Meier has received numerous awards for his work, including the Pritzker Prize for Architecture.

Fire Department, an experimental theater complex in La Jolla, California, a large Buddhist stupa in Santa Cruz, California, and a city planning project in Louisville, Kentucky, where a seventyacre industrial site was transformed into an extension of the city’s center. RoTo Architecture is a testament to the grace and imagination with which Rotondi consistently meets his disparate clients’ demand for cutting-edge designs that are sound and skillful.

Michael Benedikt is a professor of architecture at Arizona State University and at SCI-Arc (Southern California Institute of Architecture).

The resulting rooms are contemporary bedrooms—some more appropriately described as suites rather than single rooms—from Europe and North America that evoke a spectrum of classical styles updated for the finest in twenty-first century living.

I wouldn't have been an artist, or I would be a different artist altogether.” –Marc Chagall, Leaves from My Notebook Marc Chagall is one of the most popular artists of the 20th century, famous for his poetic, surreal images that represent a topsy-turvy world, combining fantasy and spirituality with a modernist style. This volume serves as a guide to the iconography of Chagall's best-loved work—in which he frequently included Jewish symbolism and folklore, sometimes overtly, sometimes in quite hidden, meaningful ways—offering insight into Chagall’s Jewish roots and succinct interpretations of his major paintings, from his early masterpieces made in Russia and in Paris to his Yiddish art theater paintings. Harshav illuminates Chagall’s most famous paintings of the Jewish shtetl, or provincial Russian town, and highlights the recognizable trademarks of his art, such as the “fiddler on the roof.” It also interprets in detail Chagall’s theater murals and his beautiful stained-glass windows at the Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem. Although Chagall is not known only as a Jewish artist, his background was the prism through which he saw the world and served as the language of his universally loved art. Benjamin Harshav is professor of Comparative Literature, Hebrew language and Literature, and Slavic languages at Yale University. His many publications include Marc Chagall and His Times: A Documentary Narrative, Marc Chagall and the Jewish Theater, and Marc Chagall on Art and Culture.

And though these countries feature rich variations in culture, language, and in some cases climate, their contemporary residential architectures share many similar characteristics. Sometimes these are crisp residential designs rendered in the most modern forms, while in other cases architects draw on local cultural or vernacular building materials, such as stone or wood, to create houses that, while still undeniably modern, are very much of their place. But the most ambitious and innovative of these projects all maintain a strong design sensibility that transcends geographic borders. Pacific Modern is a spectacularly illustrated tour of the most exciting examples of residential architecture in these regions. Among the architects whose work is presented are Glenn Murcutt, Sean Godsell, Burley Katon Halliday, Engelen Moore, Kerry Hill, and Fearon Hay. Raul A. Barreneche has worked at Architecture magazine as executive editor and is the author of Rizzoli’s Tropical Modern and co-author of Universe’s House: American Houses for a New Century. He is a contributing editor to Metropolitan Home, Architectural Record, and Travel + Leisure and also has written for House Beautiful, Dwell, Interior Design, and the New York Times. 17 BACK IN PRINT! Formica & Design FROM THE COUNTERTOP TO HIGH ART SUSAN GRANT LEWIN, INTRODUCTION BY R. CRAIG MILLER An exploration of Formica, the iconic modern material revered by designers and architects. This profusely illustrated and comprehensive examination of Formica surveys all aspects of the brand’s artistic and cultural influence. Soon after its invention, Formica laminate was used as a decorative material, adorning such interiors as those of the Queen Mary and Radio City Music Hall, among others. Formica’s easy-to-clean features and its chameleon-like capacity to adopt to any pattern and color soon made it a ubiquitous surface material for kitchens and bathrooms across America. More importantly, Formica laminate has changed with the tastes of the times from the modern style in the 1930s to the postmodern style of the 1980s. Individual chapters and essays explore Formica’s many applications—in diners, hotels, homes, furniture, and jewelry. Susan Grant Lewin is the creative director of Formica Corporation. R.

HRVOL FLORES A retrospective on the life and work of Owen Jones, artist, architect, and designer of the Victorian Age, who remains a highly influential force today. Owen Jones was, and still remains, a highly influential force in the world of architecture and design. His prolific and impressive work—captured here in its various stages through drawings, architectural plans, and photographs—is as current, imaginative, and important now as when it first emerged more than 125 years ago. Owen Jones: Design, Ornament, Architecture & Theory in an Age in Transition fills a serious gap in the history of Victorian design. In his early career Jones was recognized as an authority on Oriental design. In the 1850s he was commissioned to decorate the interior of Joseph Paxton’s magnificent World’s Fair Crystal Palace in London. Other signature projects include St. James’ Hall, the Crystal Palace Bazaar, Osler’s Glass Shop, and Eynsham Hall at Oxford. In 1856 he completed his monumental Grammar of Ornament, which remains one of the most influential works on design ever published and is a source for many artists and designers today. More than just an architect, Jones’ skills were applied to designing interiors, books, textiles, furniture, and carpet. His philosophy can most accurately be expressed in his words, “Form without color is like a body without a soul.” Carol A. Hrvol Flores is associate professor in the College of Architecture and Planning at Ball State University and is currently program chair of the Nineteenth-Century Association. She is widely recognized as a leading authority on Owen Jones.

Often described as Prince Charles’s favorite architect, Quinlan Terry is at home in every traditional style, from Classical Greek to Roman, Gothic to Renaissance, and Baroque to Neo-classical. With intense new interest in classical design, there is a high demand for a compilation of Terry’s work, a volume that showcases the ideas and creations of one of the world’s most daring traditionalist designers. At the pinnacle of his career—this year’s winner of the Driehaus Prize, classical architecture’s highest honor—Quinlan Terry is one of the most celebrated practitioners of the form and also perhaps the most radical. Radical Classicism contains hundreds of lavish color illustrations and thirty of Terry’s designs, including state rooms at #10 Downing Street, a library and residential building at Cambridge University, a cathedral in Essex, a church in Bishopsgate, four buildings in Williamsburg, Va., townhouses in London, and ten large country houses in England, Germany, and the U.S. Buildings featured include Juniper Hill in Buckinghamshire; Ionic Villa, Corinthian Villa, and Regency Villa in Regents Park, London; Abercrombie House in Kentucky; Latourette Farm, New Jersey; Highland Park House, Dallas, Texas. David Watkin teaches history of architecture at Cambridge University.

Richard Estes (b. 1932) is one of America's leading photorealist painters. This new large-format book will cover fifty-five years of Estes's work, from 1950 to 2005, and will include paintings, watercolors, and preparatory sketches. Estes is regarded as one of the most important painters of the New York urban landscape. The crisp clarity of Estes's paintings is reminiscent of photography, yet upon closer inspection his work reveals elements and perspectives that do not exist in reality and have more to do with minimalism and realism than with traditional landscape painting. The book will also include his work of the last ten years, much of which will be published here for the first time. A detailed chronology and list of exhibitions and public collections are included. John Wilmerding is the Christopher Binyon Sarofim Professor of American Art at Princeton University and visiting Curator in the Department of American Art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Hans Hofmann SAM HUNTER HANS HOFMANN A comprehensive treatment of one of Abstract Expressionism’s most important forefathers. As a teacher, Hans Hofmann left his mark on generations of artists in both Europe and America. He had an equally brilliant career as a painter. Hofmann operated a famous teaching studio first in Europe and then in New York at a pivotal moment when a new kind of subjective, non-figurative art was emerging as the dominant movement. His work is insistent upon color, texture, and form, and his astoundingly liberated later canvases are more than expressions of a creative process; they are, in the words of art historian Robert Goldwater, “less the culmination of a life-long development than a kind of rebirth, an entirely new, youthful phase.” ART 296 pages, 115 x 105” 300 illustrations HC w/slipcase: 0-8478-2380-6 $125.00 (Can $175.00 UK £75.00) February 14, 2006 Rights: World English Language RIZZOLI Sam Hunter is Professor Emeritus at Princeton University and an expert on twentieth-century art.

Partners in both life and art, Noble and Webster entered the international art scene in the mid 1990s with their first critically acclaimed show—“British Rubbish.” It was received as a kind of subversive reaction to their art world peers. Ironically it gained them worldwide notoriety. Extravagant, sometimes coarse, and always sharply clever, Wasted Youth is a both a paean to and sly denunciation of modern consumer culture. Their art, deemed “beautiful Baroque Kitsch” by the London Daily Telegraph, challenges our sense of conventional beauty by “rehabilitating the detritus of society and turning it into something pleasing.”—the Guggenheim Tim Noble and Sue Webster ’s work has been exhibited at many museums and galleries in the US and UK, including the Royal Academy of Arts in London, MoMA’s P.S. 1 in New York, and the Museum of Fine Arts, in Boston. Their work is part of the permanent collection at MoMA, the Guggenheim, and Saatchi. In addition to managing Deitch Projects galleries, Jeffrey Deitch is an art writer and art advisor to collectors. Norman Rosenthal has been the Exhibitions Secretary at the Royal Academy of Art in London for more than twenty-five years.

Specially commissioned texts by cultural commentator Michael Bracewell, art historian Gilda Williams, Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art curator Dominic Molon, and Whitechapel director Iwona Blazwick provide valuable new insights into the artist’s work and bring up to date the rapidly increasing recognition of Prince’s pivotal contributions to contemporary art theory and practice.

This full-color monograph showcases Doig’s first show in a public gallery dedicated solely to his paper works of the past 14 years. An artist who credits such inspirations as Hopper, Munch and Matisse, Doig re-works and re-interprets images drawn from photographs, film stills, postcards, paintings and even album covers to explore notions of memory and fantasy. Doig’s haunting and atmospheric work is often compared to the early 20thcentury paintings of the Symbolists and Surrealists and is seen as having revived the Romantic spirit. He was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1994 and has been featured in the 54th International Carnegie Exhibition as well as many leading museums including the MoMA, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Tate, and the Dallas Museum of Art. Margaret Atwood is the author of more than 25 volumes of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction including The Edible Woman, The Handmaid's Tale, The Robber Bride, and The Blind Assassin that won the prestigious Booker Prize in 2000.

But the moment you are making the painting, something else enters in,” she explains. While her work seems spontaneous, the fluidity of her lines betray an intense degree of concentration and a striking command of the medium. The book includes her most recent paintings and a selection of sculptural drawings—on zippered paper with mirrored Mylar—that conjure up the squashed and distorted images of her paintings.

Despite Prohibition, the ‘20s was the decade of jazz, flappers and hip flasks. While some took their vote and joined the Woman’s Christian Temperance Movement, others, well, took liberties. Compiled here for the first time are more than 200 publicity stills and photos of some of America’s first “It” girls—the silent film-era starlets who paved the way for the cacophony of Monroes and Madonnas to follow. Accompanying these iconic images are the stories behind them, including accounts from surviving Ziegfeld Girls, as well as ads featuring them that helped perpetuate the allure of It girl glamour. When rare and striking portraits of these women surfaced on the internet in 1995, author Robert Hudovernik began researching their source. What he discovered was the work of one of the first “star makers” identified most with the Ziegfeld Follies, Alfred Cheney Johnston. Johnston, a member of New York’s famous Algonquin Round Table who photographed such celebrities as Mary Pickford, Fanny Brice, the Gish Sisters, and Louise Brooks, fell out of the spotlight with the demise of the revue. A sumptuous snapshot of an era, this book is also a look at the work of this “lost” photographer. Robert Hudovernik is a freelance writer, photographer and scriptwriter. He wrote and produced a documentary funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities entitled Circus Echoes on the golden age of circus entertainment during the Art Deco era.

Toys are no longer just for kids—they are at the heart of a new pop culture movement. The new toy scene emerged in 1997 when designer Michael Lau exhibited G.I. Joes he’d customized into hiphop street figures at a Hong Kong toy show. Artists from Hong Kong and Japan followed suit, creating their own limited edition vinyl figures. The vinyl toy movement soon went global, invading the US and Europe with a vengeance and spawning an intense, worldwide collector’s culture. Toys documents the amazing variety and mesmerizing detail of these unique, highly collectible figures from the top artists in Hong Kong, Japan, the US, the UK, Canada, and Australia, including James Jarvis, Gary Baseman, Frank Kozik, Jim Woodring, Ugly Dolls, and Todd Schorr.

Wood presents a comprehensive survey of international wood architecture highlighting the incredible versatility of this building material and the environmentally friendly possibilities of using it in residential construction and design.

It also illustrates the diversity in the use of this material in different climates, cultures, and countries. The book is divided into four main chapters: a short historical introduction; a compilation of different projects shown as a whole, and typologically catalogued according to the use of wood; a compilation of interior designs, arranged like the different spaces of a house and combined with wood furniture; and a catalogue of the most commonly used woods and their properties.

Originally published in 1999 and now fully revised and updated, Fashion is a photographic celebration that surveys all the preeminent couturiers and fashion houses from the era before the Great War through the revolutionary changes wrought by the Jazz Age and the Swinging Sixties to designers at work today. Everything is included in this authoritative volume, from Chanel’s little black dress to the latest Prada or envelope-pushing boutiques. What distinguishes Fashion from other overviews or histories of the subject is that it also examines the ancillary driving forces that have propelled fashion trends and fuelled the rise of styles. In many ways, this book makes clear that these supposedly secondary influences (fashion editors, advertising, newspapers, magazines, department stores, boutiques) became increasingly important during the course of the twentieth century. Included in the book are overviews of key figures in the fashion industry and design community. Fashion is a comprehensive, visual sourcebook for anyone interested in the subject, and it is a chic paperback that will be a stylish addition to any bookshelf. François Baudot is one of France’s leading writers and commentators on fashion and style.

Yves Bonnefoy examines the entire range of Alberto Giacometti’s creative production—sculpture, painting, drawing, and lithographs—in this classic, singular study of the Swiss sculptor. By focusing on the works rather than on the details of the artist’s life, and by relying on the evidence of Giacometti’s important writings and statements, the author—a poet, essayist, and friend of the artist— provides a wealth of interpretations of Giacometti’s drawings, canvases, and sculptures. Bonnefoy’s eloquent and incisive text traces Giacometti’s artistic development—from his experience with surrealism, to his return to figurative sculpture, and then to the period of his monumental Walking Man series. The superbly designed and copiously illustrated volume is further enriched with archival photographs of Giacometti’s studios and five decades of his artistic life in Paris. Accompanied by an extensive biographical chronology and bibliography, and illustrated with nearly 600 works and documents, the revised edition of this oversized, exquisitely-produced monograph will continue to be the essential, authoritative reference on this artist. Yves Bonnefoy is a writer devoted to the analysis of poetry and art. He has been appointed doctor honoris causa at various universities, including the University of Chicago, and has published many volumes of his own poetry as well as French translations of Yeats and Shakespeare. In 1981, he was elected chair of comparative poetry at the Collège de France.

Between 1924 and 1934, Picasso’s oeuvre developed dramatically. During this decade, the artist maintained a complex relationship with the burgeoning and hugely influential Surrealist movement. Eventually, he diverted from Surrealism to form a variant known as Supra-realism. This volume presents an integrated analysis of the whole of Picasso’s artistic creation during the Surrealist period. Thematic texts reveal the extraordinary wealth of Picasso’s work during this time. It begins with a study of his research on theater and ballet from 1914–23 and subsequently examines Picasso’s work in painting, sculpture, and works on paper. This comprehensive account concludes with a study of the body of Picasso’s work from 1935–40. These formative years, during which civil war raged in Picasso’s native Spain, laid the groundwork for the increasingly political content of his later works. A detailed, fully illustrated chronology at the end of the book places this crucial period in its full intellectual and historical context. Anne Baldassari is curator at the Musée National Picasso in Paris. She is the author of numerous works and exhibition catalogs, including Bacon–Picasso (Flammarion/Réunion des Musées Nationaux, 2005), Picasso and Photography (Flammarion, 1997), and the blockbuster Matisse–Picasso (Tate Modern/Centre Pompidou/Museum of Modern Art, 2002). Additional texts from Werner Spies, Agnès de La Baumelle, Etienne-Alain Hubert (Sorbonne), Marie-Laure Bernadac (Louvre), and Philippe Buttner (Beyeler Foundation).

For fourteen years, Nek Chand secretly transported thousands of stones by bicycle from the Himalayan foothills to a secluded, government-owned jungle clearing.

A mother is a baby animal’s closest companion throughout its early stages of life, from birth to the first steps and discoveries, creating a tender bond that is fundamentally important. From orangutans to lions and from leopards to elephants, all species of the animal kingdom demonstrate the universality of motherhood. Brothers Anup and Manoj Shah scoured the world’s most breathtaking territories—from India to Indonesia to Kenya—to capture animal mothers and babies in their most touching interactions. Years of patient pursuit yielded amazingly intimate photographs of mother and baby animals in moments of playfulness, fancy, and emotion, collected here in celebration of a phenomenon that is at once savage and sublime, mysterious and pure. Their brilliant photographs pay homage to the boundless maternal connection that governs all facets of life. With their readiness to teach a baby everything from how to eat and play to coordination, safety, and social etiquette, these animal mothers bear a striking resemblance to their human counterparts. The mother and baby link is just as strong in the wild as it is in our own home and it remains a tribute to the beauty of life. This affordable and exquisitely reproduced collection highlights the natural love of a mother and baby and is a perfect gift to honor a mother or to delight an animal lover. Brothers Anup and Manoj Shah, were born and raised in Kenya.

Breitz employs a variety of darkly humorous and often disturbing tactics to strike out at stereotypes and visual conventions in the media and in popular culture. Breitz appropriates photographs and other visual fragments and recontextualizes them in bold, sometimes seemingly tasteless images. Conceived specifically for Castello di Rivoli in Turin, Mother + Father questions the canon of beliefs about parents that television and movies have trained the public to accept on a screen—deeply personal aspects of our lives that must be seen against a ground of real life. This is contemporary art hard at work to redress the seeming innocent distortion of popular culture. Candice Breitz has participated in numerous exhibitions including “Remix: Contemporary Art and Pop” at the Tate Liverpool and will participate in this year’s Venice Biennale. Marcella Beccaria is curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art Castello di Rivoli. Her books include Vanessa Beecroft Performances 19932003 (Skira, 2003) and Thomas Demand (Skira, 2003).
