Ludwig Goes Pop + The East Side Story.
Budapest 2015, (19,2 x 23,5 cm), 396 pp. English / Hungarian text, numerous colour ills.,, paperback.
¶ Forming the basis of the Ludwig Museum, Peter and Irene Ludwig established by the collection perhaps the best-known and most famous element of the material that is presented in the Pop Art era. An unique collection that can be found inside the pop art emblematic artists (Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg, Robert Rauschenberg, Andy Warhol, Tom Wesselmann, etc) iconic works as well as lesser-known artists (Allan D'Arcangelo Richard Lindner, etc) as well as outside the US trend ridge European representatives (Peter Blake, Richard Hamilton, David Hockney, Mimmo Rotella) works well. Only the Ludwig Museums enough material to create an exhibition that provides an overview of the international Pop Art. The pop art interesting feature lies in the fact - and this is evident in the exhibition - to the audience after quite a distant abstraction has a figurative representation in the then contemporary art, which, through casual references were familiar and seemingly easy to understand for the spectators. At the same time, paradoxically, just a critique of consumer society can give these works that the mechanism for everyday consumption transposed into art, offering a host of creations consumption. It is true that those representations that are already critically extend a theme that stands out among the (Vietnam) war or the mass media representation. The exhibition is a collaboration of Ludwig museums and prior to the presentation in Budapest, Cologne and the Ludwig Museum in Vienna is presented. Budapest substance is added to the era of Hungarian and Eastern European artists of his works (Bitter Helena, Gyula Konkoly László Lakner, _i_ková Ludmil, Coal Zsuzsa, Boris Buca, Vera Fischer, Tomislav Gotovac, Du_an Ota_evi_, Sanja Ivekovi_, B_la Kolá_ová, Jana _elibská, Natalia LL, Stano Filko, Julius Koller, Marko Poga_nik, etc). These works are based in part on the contemporary everyday object use, partly demonstrations of local culture references. The exhibition also examines indirectly to the so-called. 'Western' concepts of how to interpret art created an environment where social and cultural conditions of this trend were so different compared to the original site of the development trend.

Désirs et Volupté a l'époque victorienne. Collection Pérez Simon.
2013, (24,8 x 28,6 cm), 232 pp. French text, numerous colour ills., hardcover
¶ l'heure où la peinture victorienne jouit d'un nouvel engouement dans les musées et auprès des collectionneurs, le Musée Jacquemart-André a lui aussi choisi de mettre à l'honneur les grands artistes de cette période, comme Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836-1912), Frederic Leighton (1830-1896), Edward Coley Burne-Jones (1833-1898), Albert Joseph Moore (1841-1893) ou John William Waterhouse (1849-1917). Ces peintres ont en commun de célébrer la beauté féminine, comme en témoignent la cinquantaine d'oeuvres réunies pour l'exposition. Offrant un large aperçu de la peinture britannique des années 1860 à la veille de la Première Guerre mondiale, elles proviennent toutes de la collection de Juan Antonio Perez Simon, qui réunit l'un des plus beaux ensembles d'art victorien en mains privées. Naviguant entre Antiquité réinventée, légendes médiévales et décors au charme tout britannique, les grands artistes de cette époque puisent à de multiples sources d'inspiration. Sous leurs pinceaux, la femme se transforme en héroïne antique ou shakespearienne, prenant tour à tour les traits d'une muse, d'une enchanteresse ou d'une amoureuse mélancolique. A travers ses mille visages, elle incarne tous les rêves victoriens.

¶ Shafik Gabr started his collection of Orientalist art in 1993 by acquiring a painting by Ludwig Deutsch entitled Egyptian Priest Entering a Temple. His collection is today amongst the very few in the world to count such a large number of works by the famed Austrian artist as well as some of the finest examples of the greatest masters of Orientalism such as Jean-Léon Gérôme, Frederick Arthur Bridgman, Gustav Bauernfeind and many others. Important for both scholars and art lovers, the Shafik Gabr Collection impresses us with its richness and variety. It includes masterpieces by some of the major nineteenth and twentieth century Orientalists found in private hands today and demonstrates the owner's appreciation of differences as well as similarities in European visions of the versatile and diverse Orient. The selection of paintings in this collection illustrates the owner's evolving taste, his relationship with the world of Orientalism and his interest in its European expression. This Orientalist collection is a harmonious 'kaleidoscope' of genres, presenting the Orient through a variety of forms, styles and techniques, and revealing to the European viewer the mysterious East with its bright colours, its exotic and leisurely lifestyle. Over the years, it has become one of the most complete and magnificent tributes dedicated to the world of Orientalism and as such some of the most renowned experts in this field have contributed to this book in order to mark its importance in the art world. Lavishly illustrated, Masterpieces of Orientalist Art: The Shafik Gabr Collection also includes essays by distinguished Orientalist scholars.

Op scherp. Fotorealisme nader bekeken. | In focus. A closer look at photorealism.
02 2024, (24,5 x 30,5 cm), 128 pp. Dutch / English, ca. 70 colour ills., hardcover.
¶ Eind jaren zestig ontstaat in Amerika een fascinerende kunststroming: fotorealisme. Jonge kunstenaars zetten zich af tegen de heersende mode van abstracte en conceptuele kunst. Tot in het kleinste detail leggen ze alledaagse voorwerpen en taferelen vast. Als bron voor hun enorme schilderijen gebruiken ze foto's. Als een van de eersten maken zij zo de impact van beeldcultuur tot onderwerp van hun schilderkunst. Schilderijen van spiegelende etalageruiten, close-ups van glimmend gepoetste auto's, neonreclames en typisch Amerikaanse interieurs. Schilderijen die zo gedetailleerd en levensecht zijn dat je bijna denkt dat het foto's zijn. Maar welke verhalen gaan schuil achter deze verbazingwekkende werken? En hoe gaan hedendaagse kunstenaars om met die zo specifieke beeldtaal van deze kunststroming? In het boek Op scherp kijken we met een kritische blik naar fotorealisme. We breken de Amerikaanse canon van de witte,kunstenaars van de eerste generatie open en vullen deze aan met vrouwelijke, Afro-Amerikaanse, West- en Oost-Europese kunstenaars. Net als de fotorealisten van het eerste uur, gebruiken zij de fotorealistische stijl om hun visie op de wereld uit te dragen. Op scherp viert de schoonheid en het vakmanschap van fotorealisme.

Het sublieme. Het einde van de schoonheid en een nieuw begin.
2013, (13,4 x 21,5 cm), 182 pp. Dutch text,
¶ Toen Mark Rothko in 1970 zijn laatste doeken had geschilderd was dat het einde van de schoonheid in de moderne kunst. Schoonheid was verdacht geworden: ze was niet vernieuwend, niet kritisch, niet revolutionair. Maar het verlangen naar schoonheid was niet verdwenen- en de laatste jaren is ze dan ook op de weg terug. Alleen in een andere gedaante dan we gewend waren. De installaties en video's van kunstenaars als Olafur Eliasson, David Claerbout, Anish Kapoor en James Turrell stoten kunstkijkers uit het leven van alledag, werpen hen terug op hun diepste emoties en doen de tijd vergeten. Daarmee is, vrij onverwacht, ook het sublieme weer terug in de kunst. In dit kritische en prikkelende essay beschrijft Hans den Hartog Jager de ondergang en opkomst van de schoonheid in de hedendaagse kunst. Tegelijk is het een voorstel om het begrip schoonheid op een nieuwe manier te gaan gebruiken.

Inspired by Italy: Dutch Landscape Painting 1600-1700.
2002, (24 x 27 cm), 200 pp. English text, 75 colour- & 75 b/w/ ills., paperback.
¶ 'Dutch Italianate painting' is an important as well as appealing strand of landscape painting in the seventeenth century. Some of the artists who practised it - Jan Both, Jan Asselyn, Jan Baptist Weenix, Nicolaes Berchem - had visited Italy, others, most famously Aelbert Cuyp, had not. Both groups produced utterly distinctive visions of golden light and bluer skies, of happier peasants, of more evocative ruins, and yet both were as Dutch as Ruysdael or Rembrandt, and need to be considered as an integral part of the history of Dutch art. What was the nature of the appeal of these paintings? How was the fascination of a life lived by peasants, travellers and shepherds descended from Virgil's conveyed, when these painters eschewed nymphs and fauns but observed real life, human and animal, with Netherlandish naturalism? Excellent plates give the savour of the crisp and fatty brushwork of these skilful and influential painters, who have been unjustly sidelined as not true to their own land and weather.

Noir. The Romance of Black in 19th-century French drawings and prints.
February 2016, (24,6 x 28,4 cm), 176 pp. English text, numerous ills., harcover with dustwrappers
¶ This volume accompanies an exhibition of the same name on view at the J. Paul Getty Museum from February 9 to May 15, 2016. Due to the technological advances of the nineteenth century, an abundance of black drawing media exploded onto the market. Charcoal, conte crayon, and fabricated black chalks and crayons; fixatives; various papers; and many lifting devices gave rise to an unprecedented amount of experimentation. Indeed, innovation became the rule, as artists developed their own unique-and often experimental-processes. The exploration of black media in drawing is inextricably bound up with the exploration of black in prints, and this volume presents an integrated study that rises above specialization in one over the other. This richly illustrated catalogue brings together such diverse artists as Francisco de Goya, Maxime Lalanne, Gustave Courbet, Odilon Redon, and Georges Seurat and explores their inventive works on paper. Sidelining labels like 'conservative' or 'avant-garde,' the essays in this book employ all the tools that art history and modern conservation have given us, inviting the reader to look more broadly at the artists' methods and materials. Artists featured in this volume are: Auguste Allongé, Charles Angrand, Adolphe Appian, Francois Bonvin, Felix Bracquemont, Rudolphe Bresdin, Felix-Hilaire Buhot, Francois Nicolas Chifflart, Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot. Gustave Courbet, Pascale Adolphe Jean Dagnan-Bouveret, Charles-Francois Daubigny, Honoré Daumier, Edgar Degas, Eugene Delacroix, Godefroy Engelman, Hernir Fantin-Latour, Paul Gavarni, Theodore Gericault, Francisco de Goya, Henri-Charles Guerard, , Victor Hugo, Charles-Emile Jacque, Maxime Lalanne, Albert-Charles Lebourg, Ludovic Lepic, Leon-Augustin Lhermitte, Eduard Manet, Charles Meyron, Edmon-Charles-Theodore Milcendu, Jean-Francois Millet, Adolphe-Martial Potemont, Odilon Redon, Theodule Ribot, Georges Seurat,

07 2023, (22 x 24,2 cm), 228 pp. French text, numerous ills. in colour, softcover.
¶ La couleur portée à son paroxysme Les cimaises de la Fondation vont se parer de couleurs expressives, de paysages portés au maximum de leur intensité et de tons rehaussés. Comme l'a déclaré Matisse : '... il faudrait en venir à mettre le soleil derrière la toile'. Animé par Henri Matisse, un groupe de peintres, parmi lesquels Henri Manguin, André Derain, Maurice de Vlaminck, Charles Camoin, Georges Rouault et Albert Marquet, expose leurs oeuvres dans la salle VII du Salon d' Automne en 1905. En réaction contre les variations éphémères de l'atmosphère et les vibrations instables de la lumière des peintures impressionnistes, ces jeunes artistes portent au paroxysme la leçon de Van Gogh en exaltant la couleur pure. Un excès qui déclenche l'ire du public et des critiques d'art, dont Louis Vauxcelles qui découvrant dans ladite salle un buste d'enfant italianisant du sculpteur Albert Marque s'exclame: 'Donatello parmi les fauves' !

Van Gogh, Cézanne, Le Fauconnier & De Bergense School.
05-2023,
¶ De allereerste expressionistische beweging van Nederland ontstond omstreeks 1914 toen een groep jonge kunstenaars geïnspireerd raakte door de internationale avant-garde die steeds vaker te zien was in Nederland. Tegelijkertijd ontdekten kunstenaars het pittoreske Noord-Hollandse dorp Bergen, waar zij zich vanaf 1910 vestigden en een gemeenschappelijke expressionistische stijl ontwikkelden. Landschappen, stillevens en portretten werden met brede penseelstreken op het doek gezet inverzadigde kleuren met sterke contrasten. In dit rijk geïllustreerde boek wordt ingegaan op deze receptiegeschiedenis en de wijze waarop de schilders van de Bergense School hun inspiratiebron verwerken tot een eigen stijl. Daarmee wordt een nieuw hoofdstuk geschreven van de Nederlandse kunstgeschiedenis.

Zero. Countdown to tomorrow 1950s-60s.
October 2014, 25,7 x 27,9 cm) Oblong, 244 ppEnglish text, numerous ills., hardcover.
¶ ZERO: Countdown to Tomorrow, 1950s60s, is the first large-scale historical survey in the United States (Guggenheim Oct. 2014-Jan. 2015) dedicated to the German artist group Zero (195766). Founded by Heinz Mack and Otto Piene, joined by Günther Uecker in 1961, the group expanded to include ZERO, an international network of like-minded artists who shared the groups aspiration to redefine art in the aftermath of World War II. Featuring more than thirty artists from nine countries, the catalogue explores the experimental practices developed by this extensive network of artists whose work anticipated aspects of Land art, Minimalism, and Conceptual art. The publication is organized around points of intersection, exchange, and collaboration that defined these artists shared history. Among the themes explored are the establishment of new definitions of painting; the introduction of movement and light as both formal and idea-based aspects of art; the use of space as subject and material; the interrogation of the relationship between nature, technology, and humankind; and the production of live actions or demonstrations. At once a snapshot of a specific group and a portrait of a generation, this title celebrates the pioneering nature of both the art and the transnational vision advanced by the ZERO network. [ZERO]
