莫奈第一卷
¥122.54
对莫奈而言,艺术创作始终是一种痛苦的挣扎。较之同时代人,他更深沉地痴迷于表达情感,更强烈地渴望传达超越大自然的光线效果。用他自己的话来形容:“技巧来来去去……艺术始终如一——它是大自然的转译,需要与意志力同等的敏感性。我和太阳搏斗……(我)应该用金 子和宝石作画。”

Bridges
¥114.37
桥连接两个世界,是两个分离而不同的地点之间的张力。桥梁自由自在,不属于两边任何地区,矗立与风景之上,蔑视着自然百态。桥的存在蕴含着人类的意志,要在人与人之间,地与地之间建立起必要的联系。 桥是进步和创新的象征,无名地展示着新技艺的优势与持久性,也越来越轻,越来越流动,不断地藐视国家*的科技。作为真正的美学创造,今天的桥梁已经不仅仅是精湛的工程的体现,同样也是惊人的艺术作品。这本书中那些宏伟的照片将带领读者重新发现这些当代的雕塑。

Factories
¥114.37
诞生于工业革命的工厂一直以来被认为是钢铁“怪物”,在大规模丧失人性的过程中,将个人屈服于集体之下。抛开工厂之所以建立的纯粹的功能性,工厂也演变成为了一个美学空间,有时便成为了一个现代的阁楼或者现代艺术的博物馆。这本著作中那些惊艳的照片可以帮助我们重新发现这一卷本,发现这些钢筋铁骨的纪念碑那线条的纯粹性,美和惊人的现代性。

Lighthouses

灯塔,这个不知疲倦的守夜人,无止无休地引导着船舶驶向港湾。这个海洋的信标指引了从古至今的水手们。座已知的灯塔出现在法洛斯岛(Pharos),在亚历山大港(Alexandria)旁,举世瞩目。?但是,似乎是诸如斯特龙博利岛(Stromboli)火山及其频繁的喷发可能是这一发明的源头,因为火引导着船舶驶向港口。面对着现代航海设备逐渐发展,这个孤独的哨兵已经不再扮演以前那么重要的角色了。但是,这一发明并不仅仅意味着重要的建筑发展,同样也占据着世界文化遗产的地位。从鲸湾灯塔(法国)到世界尽头灯塔(阿根廷火地岛),经过了格林岛灯塔(加拿大)和贝尔灯塔(苏格兰),这本著作邀请我们重新发掘灯塔——这一历史时期的见证者。

Gothic Art
¥122.54
Gothic art finds its roots in the powerful architecture of the cathedrals of northern France. It is a medieval art movement that evolved throughout Europe over more than 200 years. Leaving curved Roman forms behind, the architects started using flying buttresses and pointed arches to open up cathedrals to daylight. A period of great economic and social change, the Gothic era also saw the development of a new iconography celebrating the Holy Mary – in drastic contrast to the fearful themes of dark Roman times. Full of rich changes in all of the various art forms (architecture, sculpture, painting, etc.), Gothic art paved the way for the Italian Renaissance and International Gothic movement.

The Lizard King
¥109.31
What if every farfetched conspiracy theory about Barack Obama turned out to be trueTwo reporters for the The Daily Caller received an unsolicited manu* in the mail, the diary of a former Obama administration political operative. What they read stunned them. "The Lizard King" describes a White House where the reality is more surreal, and comically bizarre, than anything its most fervent enemies have alleged. Tasked by David Axelrod with debunking right wing rumors about the president, the narrator embarks on a journey that takes him from Washington to Moscow to the tribal areas of Pakistan in search of the real Barack Obama. His findings leave him shocked, his political ideology in tatters and his understanding of the world forever changed.

Decision Between Us
¥370.82
The Decision Between Us?combines an inventive reading of Jean-Luc Nancy with queer theoretical concerns to argue that while scenes of intimacy are spaces of sharing, they are also spaces of separation. John Paul Ricco shows that this tension informs our efforts to coexist ethically and politically, an experience of sharing and separation that informs any decision. Using this incongruous relation of intimate separation, Ricco goes on to propose that "e;decision"e; is as much an aesthetic as it is an ethical construct, and one that is always defined in terms of our relations to loss, absence, departure, and death.?Laying out this theory of "e;unbecoming community"e; in modern and contemporary art, literature, and philosophy, and calling our attention to such things as blank sheets of paper, images of unmade beds, and the spaces around bodies,?The Decision Between Us?opens in 1953, when Robert Rauschenberg famously erased a drawing by Willem de Kooning, and Roland Barthes published?Writing Degree Zero, then moves to 1980 and the "e;neutral mourning"e; of Barthes'?Camera Lucida, and ends in the early 1990s with installations by Felix Gonzalez-Torres. Offering surprising new considerations of these and other seminal works of art and theory by Jean Genet, Marguerite Duras, and Catherine Breillat,?The Decision Between Us?is a highly original and unusually imaginative exploration of the spaces between us, arousing and evoking an infinite and profound sense of sharing in scenes of passionate, erotic pleasure as well as deep loss and mourning.

Cezanne and the End of Impressionism
¥353.16
Drawing on a broad foundation in the history of nineteenth-century French art, Richard Shiff offers an innovative interpretation of Cezanne's painting. He shows how Cezanne's style met the emerging criteria of a "e;technique of originality"e; and how it satisfied critics sympathetic to symbolism as well as to impressionism. Expanding his study of the interaction of Cezanne and his critics, Shiff considers the problem of modern art in general. He locates the core of modernism in a dialectic of making (technique) and finding (originality). Ultimately, Shiff provides not only clarifying accounts of impressionism and symbolism but of a modern classicism as well.

Systems We Have Loved
¥370.82
By the early 1960s, theorists like Levi-Strauss, Lacan, Foucault, and Barthes had created a world ruled by signifying structures and pictured through the grids of language, information, and systems. Artists soon followed, turning to language and its related forms to devise a new, conceptual approach to art making. Examining the ways in which artists shared the structuralist devotion to systems of many sorts, Systems We Have Loved shows that even as structuralism encouraged the advent of conceptual art, it also raised intractable problems that artists were forced to confront.?Considering such notable art figures as Mary Kelly, Robert Morris, Robert Smithson, and Rosalind Krauss, Eve Meltzer argues that during this period the visual arts depicted and tested the far-reaching claims about subjectivity espoused by theorists. She offers a new way of framing two of the twentieth century's most transformative movements-one artistic, one expansively theoretical-and she reveals their shared dream-or nightmare-of the world as a system of signs. By endorsing this view, Meltzer proposes, these artists drew attention to the fictions and limitations of this dream, even as they risked getting caught in the very systems they had adopted. The first book to describe art's embrace of the world as an information system, Systems We Have Loved breathes new life into the study of conceptual art.

This Is Why You're Fat
¥56.08
Food was once the providence of celebrated chefs and critical connoisseurs. Cooking shows featured all gourmet creations and web sites displayed artfully photographed delights. Then something changed. Perhaps it was the desensitizing of web culture or perhaps it was a cry for help from the food loving public. But by God there came a day when fancy vegetable towers came crashing down and $50 mushrooms were no longer acceptable. Amason and Blakley wanted see the old stand bys the carnival foods of their childhoods the sticky mess of a deep fried candy bar the indulgence of a greasy burger with all the fixins. It was the birth of the nasty food web trend. And it was delicious. The website This is Why You're Fat is an ode to this trend whether seen as a commentary on North American dietary habits or a celebration of the deliciously bad Amason and Blakey are devoted to the world's newfound obsession with over the top food.
