Dylan by SchatzbergJerry Schatzberg

In 1965, photographer Jerry Schatzberg, already well established through his work

with magazines, met a young Bob Dylan who was on the cusp of fame. Dylan invited the photographer to the studio where he was recording the album that would become ‘Highway 61 Revisited’. The album included the song Like a Rolling Stone, which would go on to be ranked #1 on Rolling Stone’s 500

Greatest Songs of All Time. Schatzberg’s photographs of Dylan

captured the (now) Nobel laureate during one of the most pivotal creative moments in music history. They include the shoot for what would arguably become Dylan’s greatest album, ‘Blonde on Blonde’.

Happy DazeThe Summers of LoveBaron Wolman

In 1967, a photojournalist named Baron Wolman met Jann Wenner and Ralph

Gleason at a music conference. Wenner and Gleason told Wolman about a new publication they were starting. It would be about contemporary music and the musicians who made it. That magazine, Rolling Stone, would go on to become one of the most iconic magazines ever published and Baron Wolman was the first chief photographer.

Happy Daze: The Summers of Love celebrates Baron Wolman’s archive of photographs from three incredible years in cultural history. From festivals such as Woodstock and Altamont, musicians including Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and the Grateful Dead, and moments including the Human Be-In and Death of Hippie march; Wolman was on the visual front lines of an important period in the history of American society.

n Includes images from Waits’ ground-breaking album, ‘Closing Time’, including many that have never before been published

n Introduction by celebrated music journalist Barney Hoskyns

Tom WaitsPhotographs by Ed Caraeff, Introduction by Barney Hoskyns

He was a young man with a distinctive voice. He had a throat that knew its way

around whisky and cigarettes. He could write poetry and prose that rivalled any poet. When Tom Waits took to the recording studio to sing his lyrics and play his songs, a new icon in American music was born.

Few artists match their image with what they create. But to listen to Tom Waits, especially in his groundbreaking debut ‘Closing Time’, the images that were presented to the press and used on the album cover would do just that. The photos matched the artist.

Ed Caraeff, a noted photographer who also captured Jimi Hendrix on stage at Monterey, was enlisted by the record label to work with this new artist in 1972 for publicity shots as well as the cover image for his debut. Caraeff would work with Waits and produce a series of iconic images - many never published before.

In Tom Waits, all of Ed Caraeff’s images are reproduced, along with notes and commentary from Caraeff and an introduction by Barney Hoskyns. Hoskyns is a celebrated journalist, music critic and the editorial director of Rock’s Backpages. He is the author of several books, including Lowside of the Road: A Life of Tom Waits (Faber and Faber, 2008), which won critical praise.

Wake Up! To the World of Bernard RhodesBernard Rhodes, Edited by Kier-sten Armstrong, Mike Warlow

From the growth of punk and beyond, this visually rich collection of art, fashion and

‘prime instigator of UK punk’ with Malcom McLaren. Been there, seen it, done it hardly does Rhodes’ story justice. Inspired by the avant-garde Situationist movement, and the designer of radical t-shirts for McLaren and the Vivienne Westwood Kings Road shop, it was Rhodes who introduced John Lydon to the Sex Pistols before engineering the formation of the Clash. With him as their manager, and the co-creator of their super-committed style, the Clash became and remains one of the biggest bands of the era, and a symbol of punk as a positive force. Alongside his two stints with them, Rhodes also nurtured the Specials and Dexy’s Midnight Runners to huge success.

Led Zeppelin: LiveIconic Images

Four men took the stage for the very first time. Their first gig was in a basement

below a record shop, but at the peak of their success, they played to over 50,000. An early manager commented that the band would go down like ‘a lead balloon’. The ‘a’ was dropped and ‘zeppelin’ substituted, and out of an insult, Led Zeppelin was born.

Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, John Bonham and Robert Plant were all experienced and respected musicians in their own right. When they formed a band, they transformed the way we listen to rock. But it wasn’t just their music that would shake the world. Their performances left millions with the memories of a lifetime.

In partnership with ACC Editions, Iconic Images has created a book that celebrates the live performances that defined a generation. Photographers, including the world-famous Terry O’Neill, Michael Brennan and Baron Wolman, have opened up their archives to present Led Zeppelin: Live.

With more than 200 million records sold world-wide, including eight consecutive

number one albums in the UK alone, Led Zeppelin were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995 and received a Grammy for Lifetime Achievement in 2005. Rolling Stone magazine named Led Zeppelin one of the greatest acts of all time.

Photographs taken in Japan between the late Edo period and early Meiji periods

found their way overseas, and played a major role in forming Westerners’ image of Japan. Among these collections, the pictures gathered by the Swiss diplomat Aimé Humbert (1819–1900) in the 1860s were crucial in building lasting representations of the island nation: many of these, mainly collected in 1863/64 during a sojourn in Yokohama and Edo, were used as sources for the well-known and largely distributed engravings of his famous book Le Japon illustré, published in Paris in 1870.

Belonging to the collection of the MEN, these beautiful and well-preserved photographs are published here for the first time. Presented by Japanese and Swiss scholars before the narrative backdrop of their acquisition and application by foreigners, they offer a striking view of a lost world.

Architecture of an Existential ThreatAdam Reynolds, Danielle Spera

From its foundation in 1948, the state of Israel has felt isolated and under

threat from enemies. This collective siege mentality manifests itself with over 1 million public and private shelters. The Israelis have integrated these ‘Doomsday spaces’ into their everyday life and ‘transformed’ them into spaces that look like normal dance studios, bars or temples. For many people in Israel who live with a personal history of exile and persecution, these shelters are the architecture of an existential threat – both real and perceived.

Adam Reynolds shot the images in this book over the course of three years, from 2013 to 2015. The photographs offer a broad cultural and geographical typology of the shelter spaces by documenting them on either side of the Green Line, throughout Israel and the Occupied Territories, in an effort to offer the broadest survey possible. They straddle the distinct worlds of fine art and reportage.

n This is the first book that offers a broad cultural and geographical typology of shelter spaces in Israel

n The photographer approaches the interiors with a careful and patient eye to the aesthetic composition of the space, in the historical tradition of architectural photography, with the goal to offer the viewer the empty space for personal reflection and contemplation

“Working in a country like Israel, it is difficult,

if not impossible, to separate art from

social reality,” says Adam Reynolds.

Art as JewelleryFrom Calder to KapoorLouisa Guinness

Art as Jewellery is a visually stunning introduction to jewellery made by the

titans of twentieth and twenty-first century art. From Salvador Dalí, Man Ray, Alexander Calder and Pablo Picasso, through to Anish Kapoor, Damien Hirst and Grayson Perry, the great figures of modern art have all turned both thought and talent to jewellery.

As is fitting for a book that covers a range of artists, every image is as striking as it is unique. By using contemporary pictures, Art as Jewellery develops a chronological timeline of jewellery presentation. Its pages are home to a stunning variety of design sketches and photographs. Some were shot by renowned 20th century photographers, such as Ugo Mulas and Antonia Mulas, while others have been buried in archives for decades, unseen since the ‘60s. In contrast, modern works have been given model treatment by top photographer Alexander English, making this book a glamorous blend of new and classic jewellery art.

Author Louisa Guinness, collector and gallery owner, provides insightful commentary on each artist and their work.

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.

This publication is the result of 35 years of research - travelling, studying, and talking to many people across the entire subcontinent of India, as well as having had unprecedented access to goldsmiths and enamellers; being shown techniques known only to one family, which have been transferred from generation to generation; and being granted access to beautiful and never-before-seen Royal collections.

n Includes archival images and new photography in chapters on its wealthy clientele, the stones themselves, and the craft of jewellery making from mine to workshop to finished piece

n Compiled with full access to Bulgari’s archives

BulgariTreasures of RomeVincent Meylan

Ajewel is more than an arrangement of precious stones – it is a story. This

is the principle on which Vincent Meylan has written his latest book. Now, with unparalleled access to the Bulgari archives, Meylan guides us on an intimate journey through the lives of the clients who have given this pre-eminent Mediterranean jeweller their patronage.

Their client roster reflects their prestige. Nobility and celebrity intermingle; the Countess di Frasso shopped at Bulgari with her Hollywood superstar-beau, Gary Cooper, as did the Infanta Beatriz of Spain and Princess Maria José of Belgium, while Richard Burton wooed Elizabeth Taylor with glittering Bulgari jewels. But these jewels tell tales of many genres, not just romance: from exiled Iranian Shahs to Count Cini of Monselice, held for ransom by the SS and released in exchange for Bulgari jewels.

Each story is retold with Vincent Meylan’s characteristic verve, embellished with original pictures from the archives. Chapters are dedicated to wealthy customers, and also to the stones themselves, tracing the evolution of this iconic Roman company through history, and the development of their jewellery from mine, to workshop, to model.

Artisans of Israel is a very special book on crafts. Author Lynn Holstein is in

search of a national identity in the artisanry of the still young country – and she finds it in the unifying pursuit for innovation. Forty artists, including Jews, Muslims and Christians, tell their stories and show in five different trades how emancipation can be promoted through creativity.

Working with one’s hands stands unfailingly at the centre of this reflection.

From the hybrid of cultural and religious backgrounds emerges a unique compilation that brings together the fields of metalwork and jewellery, ceramics, textiles, paper and wood. This compilation portrays a sensitive and inspiring portrait of Israel and its inhabitants.

In five complementary contributions, recognised authors draw a fascinating and

Through a rich palette of themes, works, reports and concepts from current art practices, they illuminate the conditions and interconnections of education, making, presentation, marketing and networking in design and art using the example of the New Zealand Handshake project.

Handshake is a unique mentoring programme in the art world, in which established artists spread their knowledge to less experienced protégés. The knowledge accumulated in this exchange, of a relationship based on feedback, is realised in exhibitions and joint projects.

Charles IKing and CollectorEdited by Desmond Shawe-Taylor and Per Rumberg

During his reign, King Charles I (1600–1649) assembled one of Europe’s most

extraordinary art collections. Indeed, by the time of his death, it contained some 2,000 paintings and sculptures. Charles I: King and Collector explores the origins of the collection, the way it was assembled and what it came to represent. Authoritative essays provide a revealing historical context for the formation of the King’s taste. They analyse key areas of the collection, such as the Italian Renaissance, and how the paintings that Charles collected influenced the contemporary artists he commissioned.

Following Charles’s execution, his collection was sold. This book, edited by the curators of a spectacular exhibition at the Royal Academy, reunites its most important works in sumptuous detail. Featuring paintings by such masters as Van Dyck, Rubens and Raphael, this striking publication offers a unique insight into this fabled collection.

n An engaging examination of one of the Royal Academy’s most important treasures, the painting described by Lucian Freud as ‘the greatest painting in the world’

John ConstableThe Leaping HorseRichard Humphreys

Each year between 1819 and 1825, John Constable submitted a monumental

canvas to the Royal Academy of Arts in London for display in the Annual Exhibition. These so-called ‘six-footers’ vividly captured the life of the River Stour in Suffolk, where Constable grew up and where he returned to paint each year. The Leaping Horse, the last of these, now a major work in the Academy’s collection, is the subject of this fascinating new book, the latest in the Royal Academy’s studies of its masterworks.

The art historian Richard Humphreys explores Constable’s often avant-garde working methods, as well as his struggle to gain full acceptance within the art establishment of the early nineteenth century. With reproductions of the artist’s full-scale preliminary sketches as well as brand-new photography of the painting itself, this book is the ideal companion for art lovers who seek a deeper appreciation of Constable’s iconic depictions of the English countryside.

These so-called ‘six-footers’ vividly captured the life of the River Stour in Suffolk, where Constable grew up and where

he returned to paint each year.

Wordsworth’s Gardens and FlowersThe Spirit of ParadisePeter Dale and Brandon C. Yen

Finally, a book that debunks the popular myth that William Wordsworth

was, first and foremost, a poet of daffodils. Wordsworth’s Gardens and Flowers: The Spirit of Paradise, provides a vivid account of Wordsworth as a gardening poet who not only wrote about gardens and flowers but also designed – and physically worked in – his gardens.

Wordsworth’s Gardens and Flowers: The Spirit of Paradise is a book of two halves. The first section focuses on the gardens that Wordsworth made at Grasmere and Rydal in the English Lake District, and also in Leicestershire, at Coleorton. The gardens are explored via his poetry and prose and the journals of his sister, Dorothy Wordsworth. In the second half of the book, the reader learns more of Wordsworth’s use of flowers in his poetry.

Throughout, the engaging text is woven around illustrations that bring Wordsworth’s gardens and flowers to life, including rare botanical prints, many reproduced here for the first time in several decades.

Glimpses of EternityWatercolours at Westminster AbbeyAlexander Creswell

Westminster Abbey has many identities – as a place of worship, theatre of

state, resting place of kings and memorial

Dangerous WomenMary D. Garrard and Kimberly L. Dennis

The Old and New Testaments are full of compelling female characters: good

wives and bad, courageous heroines, and deceptive – sometimes deadly – femmes fatales. Dangerous Women presents works from the rich holdings of the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art that explore different artists’ responses to the women of the Bible. Paintings by Pietro da Cortona, Francesco Cairo, and Fede Galizia and others stand as a reminder of how dangerous biblical women have continued to loom large in the modern imagination.lours.

The stories in this volume show how narratives of power are constructed, interpreted, and continue to evolve over the course of time. While some women saved their people, were paragons of virtue, or repented, others were purveyors of sin, harlots, and seductresses. Even if it was through their misbehaviour, all of these

to statesmen and poets. Internationally acclaimed artist Alexander Creswell captures its many facets in these stunning watercolours.

The tranquillity and shifting light of the Abbey’s cloisters, chapels and library are captured here, along with the famous monuments of Poet’s Corner and spectacular views from the triforium, soon to become the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Galleries.

We also see moments in the life of the Abbey – from the celebration of the Eucharist, to the warmth and intimacy of the Carol service, to the magnificent wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

This book represents the culmination of a project that began in 2011, with the artist’s commission to paint the Royal Wedding. Some of his sketches are shown alongside the finished works, affording a fascinating glimpse into the artistic process. This beautiful book perfectly captures the spirit of the Abbey and will be a treasured memento for anyone who has been to admire it.

The Miserable Lives of Fabulous ArtistsChris Orr

The talented printmaker and Royal Adademician Chris Orr turns his

humorous gaze on some of the most famous – and fabulous – artists of the past. With over 30 new works, accompanied by Orr’s captions, artists from Edward Hopper to Pablo Picasso find themselves in weird and wonderful situations. Edvard Munch holidays at the seaside, John Constable RA is disturbed at his easel by frolicking nudists and an unfortunate incident occurs in Barbara Hepworth’s studio...

No one can escape Orr’s imagination: Walter Sickert is distracted from his spread-eagled model by a fly in his soup, Dame Laura Knight RA is caught shoplifting, and Frida Kahlo enjoys a fry-up. Each image is packed with detail to pore over, and the book concludes with notes from the artist, ‘Notes from the Cages’, accompanied by preparatory drawings for the finished work.

This new collection, published to coincide with an exhibition of Orr’s works at the Royal Academy, is a delightful fantasy, which affectionately pokes fun at well-loved artists.

Of the artists who lived in Great Bardfield, Essex between 1930 and

This is demonstrated in the Fry Art Gallery’s collection of his work as a painter of figurative and abstract subjects in oils, watercolour, collage, mixed media, in the assemblages he constructed, and as an innovative printmaker which he developed after 1948.

Emil NoldeKeith Hartley, Sean Rainbird, Christian Weikop, Frances Blythe & Astrid Becker

Emil Nolde (1867-1956) was one of the greatest colourists of the twentieth

century. An artist passionate about his north German home near the Danish border, with its immense skies, flat, windswept landscapes and storm-tossed seas, he was equally fascinated by the demi-monde of Berlin’s cafés and cabarets, the busy to and fro of tugboats in the port of Hamburg and the myriad of peoples and places he saw on his trip to the South Seas in 1914. Nolde felt strongly about what he painted, identifying with his subjects in every brushstroke he

made, heightening his colours and simplifying his shapes, so that we, the viewers, can also experience his emotional response to the world about him.

This book features five essays and over 100 illustrations drawn from the incomparable collection of the Emil Nolde Foundation in Seebüll (the artist’s former home in north Germany). It covers Nolde’s complete career, from his early atmospheric paintings of his homeland right through to the intensely coloured, so-called ‘unpainted paintings’, works done on small pieces of paper during the Third Reich when Nolde was branded ‘degenerate’ and forbidden to work as an artist.


America’s Cool ModernismO’Keefe to HopperKatherine Bourgignon, with es-says by Leo Mazow and Lauren Kroiz

As some American artists began to eliminate people and remove extraneous

details from their compositions, they often employed neat, orderly brushwork or close-up, unemotional photography. Artists as diverse as Patrick Henry Bruce, John Covert, Georgia O’Keeffe, Paul Strand and Arthur Dove navigated European and American avant-garde circles, picking and choosing new ideas and methods. Inspiration ranged from cubism and machine parts to new technologies, and they found ways to bring order to the modern world through extreme simplification. For them, abstraction involved absence and presence - the evacuation of human beings but also the desire to depict something that would not otherwise be visible or to render visible unseen natural processes like the passage of time, sound waves, or weather patterns. Their artworks provide a new context for the precisionist works in the subsequent sections and point to modern ideas about what art could be. How does a crisp painting technique relate to an aesthetic of absence?

Psychoanalyst Meets Marina AbramovicArtist meets Jeannette FischerJeannette Fischer, Marina Abramovic

In summer 2015, performance artist Marina Abramovic and psychoanalyst Jeannette

Fischer spent four days together at Abramovic’s house in the Hudson Valley. Associating freely, they explored – from a psychoanalytical perspective – Abramovic’s biography and art and what relates them.

A better understanding of herself, her personality and her work, was Abramovic’s objective. She claims that conversations with artists abound, with one curator saying this and another saying that. Yet there is no book in which psychoanalysis puts her life and artistic work in context.

This new book aims to fill this gap. Yet it is not a therapist’s report, nor a record of Fischer’s analysis of Abramovic. It records the dialogue between artist and analyst attempting an interpretation of Abramovic’s extraordinary, violent performances that sometimes reach the brink of faint, even death.

The book is arranged in a sequence of dialogues, separated by Fischer’s comments on and images of four of Abramovic’s performances to which the psychoanalyst refers.

The Language of BugsZhu Yingchun

This award-winning contemporary art book is made completely from the

perspective and language of bugs, from the front page to the final chapter, with no human writing and text, only the ‘writing’ of bugs. Inspired by the marks left behind by a cicada walking across his sketchbook, contemporary artist Zhu Yingchun placed boards and ‘ink ponds’of dark-coloured vegetable juices in his garden for the bugs to crawl through. The resulting marks were thousands of twisted characters, each with a charm of its own – the language of the bugs. The accompanying booklet explains the artist’s concept and a QR code links the reader to a video of the process.

“The bugs seem insignificant, but their strokes are beautiful,” says Zhu Yingchun. “Art is not just those pieces hanging on walls and placed in exhibition halls. Everything in the world, including every life in nature, has the power to create beauty, and art is all around us.”

A New EraScottish Modern Art 1900-1950Alice Strang

Revealing an alternative story of modern Scottish art, A New Era examines

the most experimental work of Scottish artists during the first half of the 20th century. It challenges the accepted view of the dominance of the Scottish Colourists and uncovers the hitherto little-known progressive Scottish art world.

Through these works, we can see the commitment of Scottish artists to the progress of art through their engagement and interpretation of the great movements of European modern art, from Fauvism and Expressionism, to Cubism, Art Deco, abstraction and Surrealism, among others.

Looking at the most advanced work of high-profile artists such as William Gillies and Stanley Cursiter, and lesser-known talents, like Tom Pow and Edwin G. Lucas, A New Era takes its name from the group established in Edinburgh in 1939 to show surreal and abstract work by its members.

Must Eat AmsterdamAn Eclectic Selection of Culinary LocationsLuc Hoornaert, photography Kris Vlegels

The capital of the Netherlands is home to the largest variety of ethnicities in the

world. This updated version of Must Eat Amsterdam guides you through this melting pot of a city through a surprising selection by Luc Hoornaert and Kris Vlegels. Let them take you from small food stalls and diners to fully-fledged top restaurants with famous chefs. Despite their diverse natures, all these locations share several similarities: craftsmanship, devotion and honest top quality ingredients that perfectly bring out the essence of each dish.

Must Eat NYCAn Eclectic Selection of Culinary LocationsLuc Hoornaert, photography Kris Vlegels

Restaurant guides exist in different shapes and sizes, but this is the first guide that

focuses on the ‘must eat’ of a restaurant. Where do you go when you want the best pizza Margherita in New York? Who serves the best sizzling burger? Which chef is the Ceasar salad specialist of the Big Apple? Where do you eat delicious pastrami...? Must Eat NYC offers an exciting selection of restaurants, picked because of their specialty. Including the well-known, classic places to eat as well as a refreshing and impressive selection of hidden gems, this guide will open new worlds of taste for the tourist – and for the New Yorker. It will aid the discovery of a truly gastronomical city within the city; a foodie’s heaven. Must East NYC also allows you to get to know the chef behind each dish, and documents their love for their produce.

“Luc is the first one I call when I go somewhere, and I think that says it all.” Sergio Herman, chef and owner of The Jane, Antwerp

Contemporary Japanese HousesZhao Xiang

Over forty projects showcase the immense variety among Japanese detached houses

constructed over the past three years. Some of these houses are designed around the concept of ‘intermediate space’ featuring courtyards, landscapes, and tearooms. Others take ‘how to respond to the environment’ as the design theme, employing green building techniques and outdoor insulation, etc; while others are inspired by the question of ‘how to implement one’s lifestyle’, focusing on urban housing, family reconstitution, and variability.

Readers will learn about the meaning and the story behind these designs through every project description, experiencing the conciseness that defines Japanese house design.

In addition to this, Professor Zhao Xiang from Fukuoka University discusses various reasons for this diversity. His informative description of architecture and design theory will help the reader understand the methods behind Japanese house creation. This book

Café PlusMulti-Purpose Café Interior DesignManuel N. Zornoza

Third wave coffee shops dominate the mainstream, as the fourth wave, heavily

reliant on e-commerce, is still being defined. The reason that physical stores do not become retail déjà vu attributes largely to consumers’ notion that coffee shops are not only a place to savour a hot beverage, but a space to socialise and bond.

Café Plus is a chic book-of-the-moment that collects coffee shop interiors by excellent designers from around the world. The projects featured in this book serve more than coffee; they are multi-functional venues that interpret the global concept of a ‘café’ to suit their needs. Interspersed with illustrations and detailed descriptions of design concepts, the featured projects are all from the past three years, showcasing the latest trends in interior café design.

n Drone footage of the surf coasts of Spain and Portugal like you’ve never seen before

n Surprising combination of surfing, campers and authentic places-to-be

n A must-read for anyone who loves the sea and the waves

Surf & StayVeerle Helsen

Lifestyle journalist Veerle Helsen went ‘out-of-office’ for six months, bought an

old camper and travelled by herself along the Spanish and Portuguese coastline. Ever true to her motto ‘surf, see, sleep & eat’, she combines three of her passions in this book: surfing, travelling and discovering hidden gems. How about a heavenly holiday mansion where there’s a tree growing through the roof? Or an architectural public swimming pool that’s hidden between rocks and the sea? She searched and found camper spots so quiet she could stay there for days without seeing another soul, secret beaches that aren’t indicated on the map, where one can sit back and watch the waves.

Veerle Helsen dismisses the classic tourist image of Spain and Portugal and writes about a completely different world: untouched, fierce and free, with little beach bars serving the very fish they caught earlier that day, and roads wrapping themselves around cliffs and dunes, sheltered by pine trees and maintaining the view of sandcastles on the beach. While she drove, her drone was beside her on the passenger seat and her surfboard was on the roof.

This guide transcends the clichés and avoids the classic tourist traps. ‘Sea’ you soon!

Afascinating insight into the stimulating universe of Belgium’s cult fashion

designer duo A.F.Vandevorst. A universe of fetishes, fur, leather, sensual folds and tight straitjackets... That is what Belgian fashion designers A.F.Vandevorst stand for. This publication celebrates their twentieth anniversary.

An Vandevorst and Filip Arickx met in 1987, on their first day of school at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. Ten years later, they set up their company Blixa and presented their first collection as A.F.Vandevorst in Paris. They have collaborated with such people as the flamboyant and world-famous hat designer Stephen Jones and have grown to become one of Belgium’s most edgy cult designers, closely connected to the Antwerp Six (Dries Van Noten, Ann Demeulemeester, Walter Van Beirendonck ). With fashion shows and flagship stores in Paris, New York and London, they are much respected internationally and hugely admired in Japan.

A.F.Vandevorst’s aesthetics are the result of their strong love for the visual arts, music and literature and of their great interest in cultural archetypes. This book focuses on their diverse inspirations, including Joseph

Starck, Secret Drawings4,000 Sketches UnveiledEdited by Turner Publicaciones

Since the establishment of his studio, Ubik, in 1979, Philippe Starck has conceived

more than 10,000 projects, and every single one of them has had the same principle: they must be at the disposal of the users. The object has to be “fair” and “to provide a service” – as functional as emotional. Starck embodies a democratic way of designing by asking himself: Why does this object deserve to be? He’s a committed creator that belongs

n The core of Philippe Starck’s creativity process, a journey through the subconscious of a great designer of our era

to an ever-changing contemporary world. That is why, for example, he has been a long-time defender of an ecological creative process.

This catalogue, which follows the exhibition held at the Centre Pompidou Málaga, brings us right to the core of Starck’s creative process - drawings, sketches, researches, and, of course, his most iconic objects.

Ross Lovegrove: ConvergenceRoss Lovegrove, Marie-Ange Brayer

Ross Lovegrove is an internationally renowned designer and visionary, whose

works are celebrated as the new aesthetic expression of the 21st century. His industrial design is inspired by the logic and beauty of nature. It connects technology and innovative production methods with new materials and an intelligent, organic vocabulary of forms, in an inimitable way. By carefully selecting, combining, and composing these elements he succeeds in inventing a completely unique language of his own.

His philosophy is rooted in elegant functionalism. Despite all of the imaginativeness and pleasure in experimentation revealed in his body of work, he considers himself a thinker whose interest is not in the pretentious, but in the development of sensible, useful things. At the heart of this monograph, therefore, is a lasting combination of high standards and creativity, design and nature, and the latest technologies from the fields of physics, biology, anthropology, and ecology.

This book features an array of innovative projects, from commercial and residential innovation strategies to humanitarian works, such as emergency shelters made from paper and modular shelters for earthquake victims. Shigeru Ban’s visionary residential design philosophies encompass timber hybrid structures, including a building constructed from cardboard tubes; the tallest hybrid timber structure in the world for a residential tower in Vancouver; as well as the new home designed for the Aspen Art Museum, which features woven wooden cladding.

n Demonstrates how key architects across Britain and Ireland are blending contemporary design practices with traditional vernacular buildings

n Features an array of award-winning and highly commended projects

British + Irish ModernNew Houses and Old Houses Made NewEdited by Hannah Jenkins; Fore-word by Maggie Toy

House design in Britain and Ireland is guided by climate, landscape and local

resources just as much as the centuries-old traditions that have influenced architectural shape and form. Today’s best-known and emerging architects interpret their briefs with imaginative flair: they are transforming houses for the next generation of families by blending their renewed vigour for a local aesthetic with new materials and trends.

Many of the new houses featured in British + Irish Modern reflect the architect’s focus on redefining local expectations for form by beautifully juxtaposing the traditional with contemporary structures, thus forging a new vernacular.

Shown in stunning, full-colour photographic detail are hundreds of pages of new and renovated houses, cottages and even converted barns nestled in misty rural valleys, including new and retrofitted modern inner-city terraces and townhouses that make the best use of available space.

British + Irish Modern reveals a rich array of works that showcase how architecture in Britain and Ireland today has much to teach the world about creative, high-calibre design, innovative application of materials, and cautious but clever reliance on resources.

Aaron G. GreenOrganic Architecture Beyond Frank Lloyd WrightRandolph C. Henning; edited by Allan Wright Green and Jan Novie

In the early 1940s, Aaron Green became a member of Frank Lloyd Wright’s apprentice

group, the Taliesin Fellowship. At the request of Frank Lloyd Wright, Aaron Green established a San Francisco office in 1951, both for his own practice and as Mr. Wright’s West Coast Representative.

The highlight of his career occurred in 1999 when he won a national competition to design a visionary open-to-the-world private high school in Greensboro, North Carolina, on a 100-acre wooded site with a 25-acre lake. The project infrastructure includes the largest single loop geothermal system in the world.

Shortly before his passing, Aaron Green was awarded the 1st gold medal by the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation in recognition of his career and accomplishments and dedication to organic architecture. When asked who Aaron Green was, Wright commented, “Aaron Green is my son.”

– museums, theatres, offices, laboratories, airports, cultural centres, civic works, master plans – are presented in rich full colour with insights from Pelli that delve into the design and construction of these landmarks from a practice that has thrived for nearly 40 years.

Art nouveau architecture is a diverse subject, with a plethora of different

names from across the globe. Defining a movement that consciously opposes tradition is difficult; art nouveau rejects categorisation with its relentless modernity.

The buildings themselves are models of collaborative research. Artistic innovation collided with invention, as architects embraced new construction techniques, designing with iron, glass, pottery, and concrete.

This over-sized book is the result of five years’ in-depth research. It contains a selection of key buildings from around the world, carefully curated by a panel of experts who bring specialist input from each continent. As a result, this book is the first collection of art nouveau architecture outside the boundaries of Europe.

Each building is fully illustrated and accompanied by descriptive text. A general introduction provides historical and political context, while each country in the Atlas is introduced with a short but in-depth essay. City maps have been specially produced for this one-of-a-kind book, making this a must-buy for architectural students and designers who specialise in art nouveau.

Structures of historical or architectural significance are placed in their context, as the authors discuss building typologies, civic facilities and ornamental techniques, from plaster and carved stone to glazed tiles and mural painting. A chapter is dedicated to each principal Deccan site, interweaving the rise and fall of these cities with a pictorial journey through their ruins, and each building is accompanied by an overhead plan view.

SOS BrutalismA Global SurveyOliver Elser, Philip Kurz, Peter Cachola Schmal

SOS Brutalism is a distress signal. Since the 1950s, eminent architects around the

world have realised buildings expressing an uncompromising attitude. Predominantly, yet not exclusively, they used exposed concrete, or béton brut (hence the term ‘brutalism’), for their construction. In recent years, an initiative to protect and preserve this significant global heritage of 20th-century architecture has gained momentum, mainly through the Internet. Using the

hashtag #SOSBrutalism, the Deutsches Architekturmuseum (DAM, German Museum of Architecture) in Frankfurt on the Main and the Wüstenrot Foundation participate in this campaign, and have developed a vast collaborative research project.

The result of this research to date is a global survey of brutalist architecture of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. Some 100 contributors document around 120 key buildings from this period, including many previously unpublished discoveries that are in acute danger of loss through neglect or intended demolition. Moreover, the book features overviews of brutalism in architecture in twelve regions around the world. Case studies of hotspots such as the Macedonian capital Skopje or New Haven, Connecticut, and essays on the history and theory of brutalism round out this lavishly illustrated book. The paperback supplement collects papers from an international symposium on brutalism in architecture held in Berlin in 2012.

- The BookWarren Chalk, Peter Cook, Dennis Crompton, Ron Her-ron, David Greene and Michael Webb; with essays by Reyner Banham, Martin Pawley and Michael Sorkin

Archigram comprised Warren Chalk (1927–88), Peter Cook (1936–),

Dennis Crompton (1935–), David Greene (1937–), Ron Herron (1930–94), and Michael Webb (1937–). Together, in the 1960s and early 1970s, they envisioned the future of architecture in ways that enthralled a generation.

In an era defined by the space race, they developed a ‘high-tech’, lightweight, infra-structural approach that stretched far beyond known technologies or contemporary realities. They devised autonomous dwellings and focused on survival technology; they experimented with mega structures and modular construction systems; they explored mobility through the environment, and the use of portable living capsules: all through the medium of an incredible series of drawings and models.

Archigram’s influence has been profound and enduring. They gave the High-tech movement its impetus; they inspired architects such as Renzo Piano and Norman Foster; and they laid the ground for the design of buildings such as the Pompidou Centre. This book catalogues Archigram’s activities over fourteen years, together with commentaries by the architects and critics writing then and now. Edited and designed by Archigram member Dennis Crompton, it has been 40 years in the making.

n An expert insight into the architectural history of Burlington House, home of the Royal Academy of Arts in London since 1868

n Published to coincide with the redevelopment of the Burlington Estate by the internationally acclaimed architect Sir David Chipperfield

of Piccadilly – was to become the home of the Royal Academy of Arts, its exhibitions and its Schools.

This important study charts the history of the estate through its various owners, including the 3rd Earl of Burlington, who gave the house not only its name but also its distinctive and influential architecture. In his day, the house was host to leading scholars and celebrities, who met within Burlington’s cutting-edge creation, which remains an unparalleled examplar of the Palladian style in England.

Nicholas Savage, formerly Director of Collections at the RA, examines 350 years of social and architectural history, as well as revealing the next phase in the life of the estate, as the Royal Academy opens up Burlington House as never before in an exciting redevelopment led by Sir David Chipperfield CBE RA to celebrate the institution’s 250th anniversary.
