Collection / Sammlung Hubert Looser.
2012, (25,3 x 30,1 cm) 248 pp. German/ English text, 230 ills., hardcover
¶ With its emphasis on Abstract Expressionism, Minimalism, and Arte Povera, the Fondation Hubert Looser is one of the most outstanding private collections of modern and contemporary art in Switzerland. This is the first time that numerous groups of works from the collection's approximately four hundred exhibits are being presented in public, including Willem de Kooning, John Chamberlain, Cy Twombly, David Smith, Agnes Martin, and Giuseppe Penone, as well as individual pieces by artists such as Arshile Gorky, Alberto Giacometti, Pablo Picasso, and Anselm Kiefer. Especially remarkable is the way the works communicate with each other. Dialogues, constellations, and elective affinities among paintings, sculptures, and drawings become visible, as do the central aspects of the collection: the painterly gesture, the dominance of pure line, as well as the processual character of material and the mythical, archaic side of nature. This book provides insight into a private life with art.

Chinese Wallpaper in Britain and Ireland
09 2018, (23,2 x 27,8 cm), 272 pp. English text, numerous colour ills., paperback.
¶ Chinese wallpaper has been an important element of western interior decoration for three hundred years. As trade between Europe and China flourished in the seventeenth century, Europeans developed a strong taste for Chinese art and design. The stunningly beautiful wall coverings now known as `Chinese wallpaper' were developed by Chinese painting workshops in response to western demand. In spite of their spectacular beauty, Chinese wallpapers have not been studied in any depth until relatively recently. This book provides an overview of some of the most significant Chinese wallpapers surviving in the British Isles. Sumptuously illustrated, it shows how these wallpapers became a staple ingredient of high-end interiors while always retaining a touch of the exotic. [Wallpaper, papier peints]

Rene Lalique. Exceptional Jewellery 1890-1912.
2007, (25 x 28 cm), 256 pp., 160 colour and 40 b/w., ills., English text, hardcover.
¶ The innovative genius of French artist René Lalique (1860-1945) is fully explored and documented in this volume which features one hundred and fifty objects created by the master jeweller Symbols of the very idea of art nouveau, René Lalique's creations did not limit themselves simply to effecting a stylistic renewal of jewellery. Indeed, Lalique developed a unique form of art somewhere between applied arts, poetry, painting and literature. This volume highlights the technical and poetic contribution of Lalique through a comparison with the creations of such contemporaries and examines Lalique's creative process, through the presentation of a selection of decorative works that inspired him, photographs taken by him, preparatory sketches and life-size studies preceding the creation of a jewel. The authors also contextualise the work as regards the creative arts of the time (theatre, literature, music, the glass industry) and the special relationship Lalique had with some of his contemporaries, such as actress Sarah Bernhardt. Through 150 creations - jewellery, glassware, accessories, paintings, photopgraphs, designs for clothes - and authoritative essays, this monograph will illuminate the full range of this ingenous craftsman.
