Swinging London had arrived and Duffy was in the thick of it.The press nicknamed the three photographers 'The Terrible Three'.

In the 1960s Duffy worked for many of the major fashion magazines and papers. His list of subjects was a role call of the celebrities of that time: Sidney Poitier, Michael Caine,Tom Courtney, Sammy Davis JNR, Nina Simone, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Charlton Heston and William Burroughs. Duffy's most famous photograph dates from the 1970s and is the iconic cover of David Bowie's album Aladdin Sane. He was also critically acclaimed for advertising campaigns for Benson & Hedges and Smirnoff. Notoriously, in 1979 Duffy decided to give up photography, burning many of his negatives in a symbolic fire in his back garden. Many negatives were lost but in 2009, at the behest of his son, Chris, Duffy resumed work as a photographer and shot images of people he had photographed in the 1960s and '70s. Recently many negatives have been discovered and salvaged. Brian Duffy died on 31 May 2010. ACC SPRING 2011 Aladdin Sane.

Photos from behind the scenes, details of the clothes themselves and shots of the cat-walk: an anthology of the style that has transformed this brand into an icon of fashion Made in Italy. Dolce and Gabbana have played on their Sicilian origins and inherent sensuality that have become their trademark to imagine a range of men: from the traditional Sicilian in his beret and vest, with his gold crucifix hanging from a chain around his neck, to the macho with rippling abs under his shirt and double-breasted jacket, and their more glamorous, chic playboy of latter years embodied by the statuesque David Gandy. Dolce&Gabbana Icons takes an in-depth look at the incredibly glamorous fashion from this famous duo, from the impeccable cut to that painstaking attention to detail that is so characteristic of Italian fashion.This is a truly unique journey highlighting the details and work behind the finished product. A Dolce&Gabbana garment is built up layer by layer, from the first cut to the last, careful fold.The cloth is modelled and cut to perfection, as if it were a sculpture. Every hidden stitch is hand-sewn, one after the other, until the suit fits like a glove.The final aim is perfection, which is why each suit is entirely handmade. The photo shoot commissioned solely for this volume is by Gian Paolo Barbieri, one of the most authoritative Italian photographers on an international level.The shoot features the well-known model Adam Senn, who has also starred in some of MTV’s most popular reality shows.

A spectacular journey in time from its millenary origins to contemporary forms of cosmetics.Two millennia of history to discover the key players and the evolution of the ‘culture of beauty’ so deeply-rooted in this country: from the hedonistic legacy of Rome to the traditions of medicinal herbs, from the experiments with alchemy during the renaissance to the industriousness of the late 19th century, from the boom of leading beauty-product industrialists. Italian Beauty is a tribute to the individual and collective intuition of a country acknowledged as one of the most sophisticated ‘beauty-product producers’ in the world: a highly competitive industrial system which still associates the most futuristic technological aims with the traditional cures of its inherited craft know-how.

Artists’ Textiles In America and Britain 1945-1976 Geoff Rayner, Richard Chamberlain and Annamarie Stapleton The development of textiles as an art form between 1945 and 1970, and the extent of collaboration between artists and textile manufacturers at this time, is unrivalled in modern art history. Raoul Dufy was the first twentiethcentury artist to become seriously and successfully involved in producing textile designs. His work influenced and encouraged many other artists and textile companies in Britain, on the Continent and in America. After the war this movement really flowered with the involvement of leading artists of the day: Picasso, Matisse, Moore, Nicholson, Steinberg, to name a few... This book is an important and comprehensive survey of this art form in Britain and America.There are approximately 200 colour images, many of which have never been seen before, alongside specially commissioned photography. Major artists featured include Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí, Henri Matisse, Henry Moore, Saul Steinberg, Eduardo Paolozzi, Fernand Leger, Ben Nicholson.

Masterpieces from the Steppes from the Sixteenth to the Nineteenth Century: Hoffmeister Collection Elena Tsareva The Hoffmeister Collection is one of the most extensive private collections of antique and historic Turkmen knotted carpets in Western Europe and America. It competes alongside collections from Western museums as well as those in Russia and Turkmenistan. With almost 200 objects - among which are distinguished carpets and bags - artistic excellence and historical significance come together. As one of the first to do so, Hoffmeister has determined the age of these knotted works of the Turkmen with the aid of radio-carbon techniques. According to the results from the science and technology university ETH in Zurich, the earliest pieces of the collection originate from the sixteenth century. Both the cultural significance of the collection and the scientific and artistic value of its pieces are discussed in this book.The readers can really sense the texture of these knotted wares through the brilliant photography, which carries them away on a journey into the lost world of the Steppes folk of Central Asia.

What expertise, disciplines or knowledge are required to produce it? Is it art, fashion or design? Is making it an industrial or a craft skill? The ambiguity arises from jewellery’s ability to change what it symbolises, its social value and how it is produced. For the first time, this book analyses the complex nature of Italian jewellery, considering its different components: from territory to design, from production to the market, from distribution to training, from the point-of-sale to communication, and the definition of new scenarios and new materials. Text in English & Italian. Petra Zimmerman is one of the most ambitious artists in contemporary jewellery. She draws on past encounters with costume jewellery from the previous century for her rings, bracelets and brooches. Comprised of bright, colourful synthetic forms, these objects receive a framework in which their artificial appearance contrasts to the dusty splendour of the historic costume jewellery. This book provides the first overview of Zimmerman’s fascinating and exciting creative jewellery works with sumptuous images and scholarly articles. ACC SPRING 2011 Suzanne Belperron Sylvie Raulet • Dedicated to the distinctive and highly imaginative works of Suzanne Belperron, one of the pioneers of modern jewellery Suzanne Belperron (1900-1983) is one of the 20th century's greatest jewellers. Amazingly, she never signed her work, considering it so distinctive that it was instantly recognisable. She worked first for the firm of Rene Boivin, but in her thirties was encouraged by admirers to set up on her own. She opened a tiny shop on the Rue de Chateaudon and began selling her new designs, which were totally in vogue with modern taste and lusted after by a young and hip generation.

Wark in 1965, it features nearly 700 pieces of Meissen porcelain, including rare pieces from the earliest years of the royal factory, established in 1710.

The catalogue features notable examples by the leading sculptors and painters of early Meissen production including Johann Friedrich Böttger, Johann Joachim Kändler, and Johann Gregor Höroldt. • The more than 300 objects featured include creations by Picasso, Eames, Marcel Duchamp, Paul Klee and Joan Mirò among others • Published to coincide with an exhibition at Picasso Museum, Spain It is difficult to say when the first toys were invented but archaeology suggests the need to play and to create objects to play with is an unchanging element over the course of humanity. Toys and games reflect the social and cultural reality of each era. The children’s toys, books, and furniture in this publication were created by the avantgarde artists of the first half of the twentieth century. It was a time of crises and tensions, technological and scientific progress and also years of important advances in psychology and the social sciences. For the first time, childhood was seen as a crucial phase in the development of individuals and one requiring specific attention. The result was new educational methods and an emphasis on the value of sensory and cognitive stimulus. Imagination and creativity were welcomed and encouraged. Artists of the avant-garde, proponents of spontaneous expression, embraced these ideas and created art works especially for children - objects designed to be touched, and used for play as well as well as looked at.

Running throughout is the story of how, and why, so much Russian silver found its way into American collections - much of it sold by the Soviet government in the 1920s and 30s as being of no artistic value.

Unfortunately, orders dropped away in the course of the twentieth-century. More and more studios had to close their doors. Gradually, even the training left much to be desired. Rob Thalen and his son Jaap want to again create ‘beauty’: silver objects, utensils, works of art that have long been lost. Monumental creations, demanding old craftmanship as well as the most advanced techniques. Based in Francorchamps, Belgium, their designs are valued all over the world. Text in English, Dutch, French and German. Michael Glancy is widely recognised as a prominent innovator in the field of studio glass. Glancy works with cold glass, which he sculpts through sandblasting and acid-cutting, and then coats with electroformed copper, silver or gold. Elegant and exceptional in their quality and beauty, Michael Glancy’s sculptures reveal the artist’s pursuit for perfection. Glancy’s own very specific mode of presentation - that of a base of sheet glass which shadows or connects to the standing vessel - has become his signature style. It is as if the two-dimensional world of the sheet of glass has developed and warped itself into a threedimensional object. Michael Glancy’s work is represented in numerous international museums and collections. Since 1982 he has taught and worked at the Rhode Island School of Design.

Bryan, ranging in date from c.1650-1809. These enable a full and detailed discussion of the history of English glassmaking during its critical period of innovation (c.1650-1675) and its world triumph (c.1700-1775), including discussions of crystal table glass, ‘black’ glass bottles, window glass, mirrors and lighting (glass candle-sticks and chandeliers). In spite of the fact that these pieces are among the most important examples of English glass known (the collection includes, for instance, twentyfive drinking glasses made between about 1690 and 1720, when English table glass is widely regarded as being among the most refined and perfect expression of the glass-makers’ art anywhere in the world), few have ever been published. The scholarly text brings together the latest information in a dynamic area of research. Essays accompanying catalogue discussions of individual glasses place them in their wider historical and technical settings. The book is illustrated with some 215 colour photographs of the objects in the collection (including groups and details), some seventy-five comparative objects from other collections and fiftyfive period prints, paintings, drawings and other documents that convey the historic context of their use and also document processes of manufacture and decoration. 24 ACC SPRING 2011 RELATED TITLES RELATED TITLES British Glass 1800-1914 Charles R.

January 2011 £80.00 Hardback What was once generically called “graphics” and has more recently been catalogued under the umbrella of visual communications is today considered an expression of contemporary culture closely interwoven with a number of different fields and disciplines. A phenomenon that when viewed in close-up reveals alternative ways of interpreting the world, work, relationships, and hints at educational models that transcend professions and individual projects, addressing society as a whole.Yet despite this richness the world of graphic design remains largely undiscovered and unstudied, especially beyond the narrow confines of the profession itself. Graphic Design Worlds investigates the works and history of the some of the international contemporary scene’s most interesting graphic designers as a prism offering a multifaceted glimpse of the fields they work in, the interlocking networks behind the scenes and the vital links in today’s world. Logo Talks A logo is not only meant to represent a company’s brand or a corporate identity and foster its immediate customer recognition, but also to be a piece of laudable art work, worthy of pondering over. Logo design, being one of the most difficult areas of graphic design to perfect, is being increasingly focused upon by both professionals and laymen. From the prospect of the development of the logo, now we can see that visual simplicity is no longer the sole destination of logo design; insightful designers today delve into the depth of logos’ conceptual and connotative meanings as well as its creative details in form. This book showcases stunning logo designs from a broad spectrum of contemporary designers in recent years. It provides insight into the trends and development of logo design, by presenting designers’ varied use of different elements and styles, including fonts, graphics and ambigrams, etc.This book emphasises the innovation and the flexibility used in logo design.

Karel Boonzaaijer et al. In 1986, Pierre Mazairac and Karel Boonzaaijer designed ‘Vision’, starting from the philosophy of creating a cabinet as an element of architectural composition. Due to its incredible flexibility, versatility and very modest design, ‘Vision’ has been very successful for the Dutch manufacturer Pastoe.Twenty-five years later, its compositional scope is still limitless; from a threedimensional relief design to a graphical lattice of lines and surfaces, from a series of sideboards to an architectural landscape of volumes.The book Vision: Space for Imagination tells the story of this young classic.

January 2011 £50.00 Hardback Contemporary Apartments Kitchens Wim Pauwels Wim Pauwels The transformation and interior design of apartments calls for a special approach. Apartments are designed for city lifestyles and their specifications may be more restrictive than for houses, often having less available space and a lack of natural light.They also have to offer a refuge from the aggressive world outside, with its noise and pollution. All of these factors combine to make city apartments a real design challenge and an appealing exercise in interior design: improving the circulation between the various living spaces, adapting the layout to modern lifestyles, creating views through the home and making the best possible use of the available space. The kitchen has undergone a metamorphosis in recent years, becoming a new living space. Kitchens of the new generation take pride of place in the home, often forcing the dining room or living room to surrender a few square metres. Symbolising both hospitality and lifestyle, the kitchen often serves a number of purposes: it is a practical space that is both aesthetically pleasing and multifunctional. As the perfect space in which to come together and share stories, the kitchen has become a reception room for friends and family.

Wood also offers many advantages: processing it is both energy-efficient and environmentally friendly, the construction time is short, and it is a very durable material. Many wooden constructions have withstood the test of time over hundreds of years.The most important reason for selecting wood, though, is the pleasant atmosphere enjoyed by owners of wooden houses.This also applies when wood is used as an essential element of an interior: floors, panelling and fitted cabinetwork create a welcoming feeling of warmth and cosiness in a home. 38 ACC SPRING 2011 A beautiful and inspirational look at timeless interior architecture and interior design, this book takes the very best projects from fifteen years of Beta-Plus compendiums on timeless interiors.The projects have been chosen by Alexandra Druesne, the interior style writer of the Beta-Plus Home Series.

ACC SPRING 2011 Sustainable Homes Edited by Mark Cleary Necessity is the mother of invention, and the global necessity of facing the challenges of Climate Change has unleashed the inventive powers of architects around the world, many of whom are tackling the problem in original and highly creative ways. And yet, as the projects contained in this volume attest, sustainable design doesn’t necessarily preclude style and comfort, or even a little bit of luxury. With lush full-colour photography, detailed floor and site plans, and informative descriptions of each house’s sustainable design elements, Sustainable Homes takes the reader on a round-the-world journey, traversing a range of climates, to see how today’s architects are making the most of traditional and modern design principles and technologies to create more energy efficient houses. From the Light House in the UK, that country’s first carbon-zero house, to the Palmyra House in India, a model in using local sustainable materials, to the sculptural works of art formed from the ecological-friendly technique of whole tree architecture, the houses in Sustainable Homes will captivate you with their beauty and invention, and inspire you with their ideas.

Ugly A Journey in contemporary art.The Bonomo Gallery since 1971 The Aesthetics of Everything Stephen Bayley “but, where is Bari?”That question is like a perpetual joke hovering over the gallery.The American artists whom in the beginning I met and asked to show in Bari became carried away with enthusiasm for the project, planned their show, but then invariably asked: “but, where is Bari?”.That is how someone had the bright idea to use it for an advertisement in the American review Avalanche, directed by Willoughby Sharp. It was a brilliant invention that amused everyone, including Bari! Text in English & Italian. “No object is so beautiful that, under certain conditions, it will not look ugly” Oscar Wilde What is ugly? One of the leading cultural commentators of our times, Stephen Bayley, takes us on a journey of discovery by skilfully weaving centuries of art and design history into a discourse on the nature of beauty… and its polar opposite, ugly. Is ugliness only skin-deep, or can something that is outwardly beautiful - a B52 bomber or a Colt.45 also be ugly, if its function is to kill or to maim? What was “Degenerate Art” and why was it deemed such? Why on earth is there a contest for “The Ugliest Dog in the World”? If there was no ugly in the world, would there be any beauty? Stephen Bayley in his engaging and at times tongue-in-cheek style answers these questions to reveal… well you just need to read this beautifully illustrated book to find out the ugly truth!

This book brings together forty two of his works from major collections around the world.These works all have as points of reference Buddhist spirituality and the rituals of Chinese tradition. It highlights the versatility of Zhang Huan, starting with his performances in the early 1990s up to his most recent works, where he uses the ash from incense burnt in the temples and places of prayer in and around Shanghai. The works of Zhang Huan offer a new and fresh look at contemporary China and the impact on its most ancient traditions. He gives another reading to these traditions in light of the unstoppable economic development and various challenges of modern day China. Text in English & Italian. Rirkrit Tiravanija Cook Book This book has been published in association with the unique exhibition of Adam Fuss in Fundación Mapfre, Madrid.The exhibition comprises approximately fifty images by Adam Fuss, dating from 1992 to the present. Adam Fuss makes pictures of unrivaled beauty and mystery with traditional and historical photographic techniques. His decision to use the processes for making daguerreotypes, platinum prints or photograms, for example, is not a statement against technology nor has it evolved from romantic notions. He has instead explored the best means to create the images that he has imagined.The results are timeless pictures; images which are a culmination of his enduring passions.They are pictures from his soul. Photography by Antoinette Aurell Born in Buenos Aires in 1961, contemporary artist Rirkrit Tiravanija resides in New York, Berlin and Chiang Mai,Thailand. His installations often take the form of stages or rooms for sharing meals, cooking, reading or playing music; architecture or structures for living and socialising are a core element in his work.This book contains 23 recipes, previously performed in museums and galleries throughout the world. All were cooked once more in his Chiang Mai kitchen and documented in the photographs by Antoinette Aurell. 24 ORE CULTURA ISBN: 9788871796420 285 x 255mm. 160pp. 64col. 64b.&w.

While relations between the Mughal world and other European powers have been studied many times, this is the first book to explore the mutual influence on art, taste and style between the Portuguese and Mughal empires. Goa and the Great Mughal focuses on the period from the 1570's, the moment of the first direct contact between the Portuguese and the Mughal Empire, to the first half of the 18th century, when the last direct diplomatic relations took place.This association lasting over two hundred years was expressed in various fields: in trade, politics, diplomacy, religion, art and culture.The ten essays written for this book by an international team of experts highlight different facets of this relationship and are illustrated by a wealth of spectacular Mughal miniatures, European paintings and other contemporary objects.

New York-based painter William Steiger’s focus is on fundamental representation of the American landscape. His subjects are industrial and recognisable - grain towers, cable cars, trains, and amusement park attractions. His graphic, distinctly schematised work is grounded in the traditions of classic American landscape painting and the machine-age Precisionism of figures like Charles Sheeler and Charles Demuth. Steiger’s works have been shown around the world and are in the permanent collections of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and The Museum of Modern Art, New York. This book traces the life and work of the great German painter Gerhard Richter, born in Dresden in 1932, and charts the path he has traced in contemporary art, with particular reference to image processing and its limits or frontiers. The dissolution of the image, the theme of twelve paintings by Richter, was also the subject of the works and studies by seven other artists: Anthony Gormley, Roger Hiorns, Marc Breslin, Scott Short, Xie Nanxing, Lorenzo Banci and Wolfgang Tillmans use a range of different techniques to express their reflections on the present and future potential of art.

He experienced the last moments of the civilisation of the horse in the 20th century and while the presence of the horse is barely found in his earliest works it becomes ever more present as his career progresses. Picasso’s impressions of the horse from visiting the bullfights at La Malagueta as a ten-year old boy through his career that took him to Paris, Barcelona, Malaga and beyond are brought together into more than 50 works of art, that for the first time tell a story of a world now almost forgotten where the horse was part of daily life. Picasso liked all horses without exception and as he depicted them in his work they were all appealing, whether circus horses, children’s toys, idealised classical horses, race horses or funeral horses. As Dominique Dupuis-Labbé writes, “aside from works devoted to the women he loved, Picasso never better celebrated the fusion of emotion and creation than when he focused on the subject of the horse.” The first major survey of the artist’s work, this new volume features 47 artworks that trace his career from Pond’s Edge (1986) to The Reef (2009). Accompanying a major exhibition at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, this vividly illustrated volume highlights the artist’s compelling mix of intensely coloured realism, scientific detail, and environmental concerns. The result is a stunning body of work. HUDSON HILLS PRESS ISBN: 9781555953607 220 x 260mm. 176pp. 145col. 72b.&w.

A close friend of Whistler and the Van Gogh brothers, he was the first British dealer to take a serious interest in Impressionist art. He was also a contemporary of the Glasgow Boys and supported emerging artists such as Henry, Hornel and Crawhall as well as the Scottish Colourists. His clients were rich Scottish merchants and industrialists who made their fortunes on the back of Scotland’s rapid economic development, and whom he persuaded to buy Impressionism well in advance of their English contemporaries.

Paul Eluard dedicated poems to her, she was photographed by Cartier-Bresson and Man Ray, she was a painter, a scriptwriter, costume designer and illustrator and the person responsible for various ups and downs in Italian art-history criticism circles. Leonor Fini will do justice not only to her career as an artist and star but also her paintings, which are full of her vivacious spirit, and her extraordinary personality that Max Ernst defined as the “Italian fury in Paris”. Text in English & Italian. Born in Volos, at the heart of classical Greece, and educated in Nietzsche’s “philosophical” Munich, Giorgio de Chirico then moved to avant-garde Paris where his art influenced the emerging Surrealist generation. He was first noticed by Pablo Picasso and Guillaume Apollinaire, when he exhibited in 1913 at the Salon des Indépendants in Paris. He then met Brancusi, Braque, Jacob, Soffici, Léger and Derain. In 1928 he held his first one-man exhibition in New York and shortly afterwards exhibited in London. Indeed, in those years, as well as painting, he dedicated himself to writing and also to stage designing for theatrical shows and ballets.

Moore moved to Perry Green with his wife Irina in 1940 and he lived there until his death in 1986. This guide provides a succinct biography of this famous artist’s life, describes his working methods and shows the Moores’ former home and studios, which can still be viewed in their original condition today. A large collection of Moore’s work remains at The Henry Moore Foundation in Perry Green, including sculptures, drawings, graphics, tapestries and textiles. This is a unique appraisal of one of Britain’s most internationally renowned artists, who remains as popular today as ever. David Madden, John T. Spike, Nicholas Spike This lavishly illustrated catalogue documents the chronology, series, provenance, publications and exhibitions of Anuszkiewicz’s more than 1,000 paintings and sculptures in museums and private collections. Prepared in collaboration with Richard and Sally Anuszkiewicz and using the artist’s personal archive, this comprehensive book is a fundamental resource on this major artistic personality and on post-war geometric abstraction in general. Robert Helman is one of the XXth century’s major artists. Based in Montparnasse from 1946, he shared in the adventure of the New School of Paris without allowing himself to be trapped by any pictorial trend. Painted with bold gestures and a bright palette, his Suns, Genesis, Roots, Germinations,Trees and High Glides have produced a vast personal cosmogony. Robert Helman has thus managed to communicate his vital energy through powerful and lyrical work, by expressing, in harmony with Nature, the intimate link between his inner personal vision and his artistic achievement.

His masterpiece, Summer, acquired by Liverpool Corporation in 1892 amid intense controversy, propelled Hornel into the limelight and led to an invitation to exhibit his work in Brussels in 1893 alongside that of Rodin, Signac and Toulouse-Lautrec.

He made rapid progress, the merchant collector Pavel Tretyakov buying one of his paintings when he was only nineteen. Levitan travelled extensively in Europe, visiting Berlin, Paris, the Riviera, Italy, Switzerland, Munich and Vienna. He was thus, unlike many of his contemporaries, well aware of artistic trends in the west.This revised edition of the author’s Isaak Levitan Lyrical Landscape (2004 and 2006), also focuses on Levitan’s still lifes, portraits and cityscapes. It explores the creative thinking behind some of his works and draws parallels with the landscapes of Monet, who, while Levitan painted on the shores of the Volga, lived and worked near the river Seine.

In parallel to the exhibition, two series of conferences will take place in Madrid (Caixa Forum) and Granada (Palace of Charles V), with the participation of the most important pundits in Matisse’s work. Matisse and the Alhambra 1910-2010, with a division into five sections (Matisse and the Alhambra, Matisse and Morocco, Nice,The Odalisques and Last Varitions) is a contribution to the knowledge of Matisse’s life and work in his last years. Forty internationally renowned institutions such as The Hermitage Museum, MoMA in New York,The Metropolitan Museum, the Louvre,The Victoria and Albert Museum and the Pushkin Museum in Moscow, and private collectors, such as the Baroness Thyssen-Bornemisza and Claude and Barbara Duthuit, heirs of the French painter, give their support to the project, whose organisation has been very complex for the number of loans and their varied geographic location.

He was a regular visitor for nearly twenty years, staying in the Close, first as guest of the bishop, then with his nephew, Archdeacon John Fisher. Paintings and drawings of Salisbury figure in every exhibition of Constable’s art, but they have never been considered in isolation.This new study examines every aspect of Constable’s connections with Salisbury, casting new light not only on the places and people, but on his intriguing interpretations of such familiar monuments as Salisbury Cathedral, Old Sarum and Stonehenge. Published to accompany the exhibition Constable and Salisbury, The Soul of Landscape at the Museum of Salisbury and South Wiltshire, situated within Salisbury Cathedral Close, it promotes a fresh understanding of Constable’s art. Jonathan Bober, Ken Grant, and Cheryl Snay This volume is concerned with images and discourses of the artist in the Netherlands from the late 15th century to the mid 17th century, when the relationship between a community of craftsmen and elite individuals, between consciousness of a native tradition and membership of international humanist society, were being actively negotiated. Contributions in which self-portraits, images of the studio and art literature are related to the practices, behavior and economic lives of a range of practitioners, provide new insights into the artist not only as a producer but a figure produced by his work. This title is the first to publish the Blanton Museum’s over 75 works in a variety of media, ranging in date from the 16th through the 19th centuries. Preliminary sketches, fully developed compositional studies, figure studies and finished drawings show the breadth of the medium. The collection has a strong series of Italianate examples as well - many never before published from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries when the Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture was evolving into one of the dominant cultural and political institutions in Europe.

Essays by Vic Gatrell & Amelia Rauser Accompanying the first major exhibition of Thomas Rowlandson’s work in North America for some 20 years, this volume reflects the growing emphasis on the social and political context of the satirical watercolours, drawings and prints of the 18th and 19th century. This book explores Rowlandson’s unique perspective on Georgian society, and opens up the whole subject of Georgian leisure and social life and the crossing of class boundaries. An introduction by Patricia Phagan describes Rowlandson’s position within a hierarchical society. Illustrated essays by Vic Gatrell and Amelia Rauser examine Rowlandson’s view of social life and leisure in London and his political satires.

With introductory essays describing the history of the Press (1895-1914), its aesthetic aims, the texts themselves and the character of Lucien Pissarro himself, this comprehensive volume sets the press within the context of the private press movement and its key characters. The Pissarro Archive in the Ashmolean Museum is the largest single resource for the study of Impressionism in the world. It was presented to the Museum by the family of Camille Pissarro’s eldest son, and now numbers several thousand items. Among the most important are a dozen oil paintings by Camille, covering the whole range of his output, as well as several hundred drawings and an important group of prints by the artist, often described as the ‘father of Impressionism’. This catalogue traces the career of Agnolo di Cosimo known as Bronzino, a protagonist of sixteenth-century Florentine culture. It charts his life from his apprenticeship in the workshop of Jacopo da Pontormo and sojourn in the Marche region to his career as official artist (and portraitist) of the Medici court and painter of sacred works. Many works by Bronzino and his contemporaries (Benvenuto Cellini, Niccolò Tribolo, Baccio Bandinelli, Pierino da Vinci, Alessandro Allori) reveal the close link between the arts: painting and sculpture, but also poetry, demonstrating the multifaceted personality of the artist, author of lofty sonnets in the style of Petrarch and of burlesque poems.

It creates a new and illuminating context for the artistic scene in Venice, examining the rich visual tradition of Christ as the Man of Sorrows which flourished over three centuries across all artistic media, outstripping other western European schools in terms of output and the number of artists committed to the subject. Catherine Puglisi and William Barcham explore the origins of the image of Christ as Man of Sorrows and its emergence as a distinct and central devotional image in the religious life of Venice from about 1300. Xavier Seubert focuses on the appeal of the Man of Sorrows as an image expressing pity and anguish, but also offering hope for deliverance and redemption. Baccio Bandinelli (Florence, 1493-1560) was one of the sculptors that worked for the house of Medici during the first half of the XVI century. A pupil of Giovan Francesco Rustici, he was strongly influenced by Michelangelo. One of his main works, Hercules and Cacus, is visible in the Piazza della Signoria and seen by millions of tourists each year. He also worked in Rome where he had been called by pope Clement VII. But, while his talent for sculpture was put in doubt by critics and rivals (Benvenuto Cellini, for instance), Bandinelli’s extraordinary drawing skills were universally appreciated - Vasari declared him “unrivalled” in this domain. Over two hundred drawings held in the Louvre are analysed in this scholarly publication: they include autograph drawings, those by his workshop and those rejected.

There are numerous publications about Renaissance art in Florence, but books written about this subject during this era are exceptionally rare. Francesco Albertini’s Memorial of many statues and paintings in the famous city of Florence of 1510 should therefore be treasured.This is the first guidebook of the city and was published only a few years after the inauguration of Michelangelo’s David at Piazza della Signoria and Leonardo da Vinci’s work on the Battle of Anghiari in Palazzo Vecchio. Albertini’s Memorial is also one of the earliest and therefore most interesting sources about sculpture and painting in the city.

June 2011 £12.50 Hardback FHK Henrion Claud Lovat Fraser Design Design Ruth Artmonsky and Brian Webb Peyton Skipwith and Brian Webb F.H.K Henrion was one of a distinguished group of graphic designers - refugees from Europe just prior to World War II, who brought cutting-edge continental design to the rather parochial English scene. He quickly made his mark as a poster designer for the Ministry of Information, and, parallel to this, began to build up a career in exhibition design, culminating in two highly original pavilions for the Festival of Britain. However, Henrion is best remembered for his evangelical work in corporate identity design whereby he raised the status of the graphic designer to boardroom significance. He established the authority of the profession as total re-branders of organisations, from logo, through retail outlets and vehicles, to stationery and labels. Claud Lovat Fraser is one of the great unsung heroes of 20thcentury British design. During his short life of just 31 years, he achieved an astonishing amount of work as draughtsman, watercolourist, caricaturist, publisher, illustrator, designer of stagesets, toys and fabrics: he also designed silks for Liberty’s, advertising material for Eno’s, Gurr Johns and Atkinson’s, and book-jackets for Heinemann and Nelson, among others. His inimitable style and psychedelic palette became the hallmark of both the Curwen Press and the Poetry Bookshop, but he is best remembered today, by those who are aware of him at all, for his poster, costume and set-designs for Nigel Playfair’s 1920 production of The Beggar’s Opera at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith.

During the latter part of the 18th century, Horace Walpole, son of England’s first Prime Minister, transformed a modest house into his own ‘little Gothic castle,’ creating a tourist attraction, which was as popular in his day as it is in ours. Walpole was a compulsive collector and filled the house with a pioneering collection of antiques and curios.The house and gardens have recently undergone a multimillion-pound restoration project to return Walpole’s Gothic vision to its original splendour.

May 2011 £12.95 Paperback A Noble Thing The National Trust and its Benefactors from 1940 to the Present Day Merlin Waterson During the twentieth century there was an unprecedented and largely unforeseen transfer of property in Britain from private ownership into the hands of a single charitable institution, the National Trust. In 1945 the Trust owned 112,000 acres and had a membership of 7,850. Fifty years later, when celebrating its centenary, it had a membership of 2 million and the area of land it owned had increased more than fivefold. Only relatively recently has the significance of this transfer begun to attract the serious interest of political and social historians.The National Trust and its donors have tended to be diffident about their generosity. The reasons for such generosity prove to be as varied as they are surprising and illuminating. Merlin Waterson’s new book, concentrating on the period since 1940, and accompanied throughout by rare and unusual illustrations, sheds new light on the motives of some of the Trust’s most important donors.

Monsoon Traders tells the story of the Company over three centuries, covering its origins, the maritime experience, encounters with indigenous peoples, goods traded, wealth created, technology, shipbuilding, conflict and conquest, piracy, rebellion and empire. The book is illustrated throughout with images from the National Maritime Museum in London, which has an important but hitherto underresearched collection of objects relating to the Company, including fine art, objets d’art, maps, charts, navigational instruments, ship models and weapons.Together with expert texts by three leading historians in the field, these combine to tell the story of the East India Company’s encounter with the Indian Ocean and the effects this had on both Asian and British societies, people and politics. Monsoon Traders is published to coincide with the opening of a new permanent Asian gallery at the National Maritime Museum.

In 1984 it was named a UNESCO World Heritage site, a well-deserved recognition of its interesting historical, aesthetic and natural treasures.The Monumental Complex - which comprises the area enclosed by its walls, the land where the Generalife is located, and the large surrounding area where there are buildings as well as the remains of other constructions historically associated with the Alhambra - is a unique place in the world.

Angeliki Kottaridi et al. The “belle dame sans merci”, the seductress who drives men insane and slowly but surely to their ruin, is one of the myths of modern culture, pervading literature, drama, figurative arts, and cinema. In opera the “femme fatale” is an archetype encompassing the magicians of antique phantasmagorias like Carmen, Salome and the most representative of all, Lulu. A painstaking study of the figures of the great singers, carried out at the most famous opera theatres in the world, assembled in this book with the most stunning pictures of the enchantresses in music, who forever will outpour charm and poison, beauty and perdition, over all those who are fated to love them. Excavations in the late 1970s in the modern village of Vergina revealed spectacular royal tombs; one identified as belonging to Philip II and the others to members of Alexander the Great’s family. Remarkably preserved, these burials take us on a journey back from the time of Alexander (d.323 BC) through classical and archaic times to the early years of the first millennium BC. The finds do not simply tell us of the wealth and social status of the deceased: they also reveal the ritual surrounding death. The extraordinary discoveries will be shown for the first time at the Ashmolean Museum. MT TRAIN ISBN: 9781905377527 200 x 120mm. 120pp. 58col. 46b.&w.

His account of the destruction of great tracts of China's forests prompted later plant hunters like E. H. Wilson, George Forrest, Frank Kingdon Ward and William Purdom to venture to China in the name of plant exploration and introduction. In the Footsteps of Augustine Henry tells the fascinating story of his life and work and documents the expeditions undertaken by a dedicated team of botanists and horticulturalists in the 1990s to revisit Henry's routes, many of which were in danger of being flooded with the installation of the Three Gorges Dam across the Yangtze River.
