O'Keeffe
￥40.79
In 1905 Georgia travelled to Chicago to study painting at the Art Institute of Chicago. In 1907 she enrolled at the Art Students’ League in New York City, where she studied with William Merritt Chase. During her time in New York she became familiar with the 291 Gallery owned by her future husband, photographer Alfred Stieglitz. In 1912, she and her sisters studied at university with Alon Bement, who employed a somewhat revolutionary method in art instruction originally conceived by Arthur Wesley Dow. In Bement’s class, the students did not mechanically copy nature, but instead were taught the principles of design using geometric shapes. They worked at exercises that included dividing a square, working within a circle and placing a rectangle around a drawing, then organising the composition by rearranging, adding or eliminating elements. It sounded dull and to most students it was. But Georgia found that these studies gave art its structure and helped her understand the basics of abstra
Picasso
￥61.23
Picasso was born a Spaniard and, so they say, began to draw before he could speak. As an infant he was instinctively attracted to artist’s tools. In early childhood he could spend hours in happy concentration drawing spirals with a sense and meaning known only to himself. At other times, shunning children’s games, he traced his first pictures in the sand. This early self-expression held out promise of a rare gift. Málaga must be mentioned, for it was there, on 25 October 1881, that Pablo Ruiz Picasso was born and it was there that he spent the first ten years of his life. Picasso’s father was a painter and professor at the School of Fine Arts and Crafts. Picasso learnt from him the basics of formal academic art training. Then he studied at the Academy of Arts in Madrid but never finished his degree. Picasso, who was not yet eighteen, had reached the point of his greatest rebelliousness; he repudiated academia’s anemic aesthetics along with realism’s pedestrian prose and, quite naturall
Bonnard
￥61.23
Pierre Bonnard was the leader of a group of Post-Impressionist painters who called themselves the Nabis, from the Hebrew word meaning “prophet”. Bonnard, Vuillard, Roussel and Denis, the most distinguished of the Nabis, revolutionised decorative painting during one of the richest periods in the history of French painting. Bonnard’s works are striking for their strong colours and candidness.
Cassatt
￥61.23
Mary was born in Pittsburgh. Her father was a banker of liberal educational ideas and the entire family appears to have been sympathetic to French culture. Mary was no more than five or six years old when she first saw Paris, and she was still in her teens when she decided to become a painter. She went to Italy, on to Antwerp, then to Rome, andfinally returned to Paris where in 1874, she permanently settled. In 1872, Cassatt sent her first work to the Salon, others followed in the succeeding years until 1875, when a portrait of her sister was rejected. She divined that the jury had not been satisfied with the background, so she re-painted it several times until, in the next Salon, the same portrait was accepted. At this moment Degas asked her to exhibit with him and his friends, the Impressionist Group, then rising into view, and she accepted with joy. She admired Manet, Courbet and Degas, and hated conventional art. Cassatt’s biographer stressed the intellectuality and sentiment app
Icons

This book analyses the evolution of iconic art from its beginning in Byzantium to the time of the Russian Empire. Icons are a fundamental element in the history of art, and it is therefore crucial to understand how this form of expression began and how it developed over centuries. Icons are discussed by one of the world-renowned experts on early Christian iconography, offering a valuable point of reference for specialists, as well as students.
Impressionism
￥61.23
“我画我所见，而非他人所想见。”难道还有什么能比 爱德华马奈（Edouard Manet）的这句话更能诠释印象主义运动了。马奈的这句话似乎与莫奈（Monet）或雷阿诺（Renoir）的情感表达完全不同。莫奈在去世前不久曾写道：“印象主义之名源我而起，但却冠以了一群并非印象主义者的群体，对此我深表遗憾。” 在这本书中，Nathalia Brodskaia考察了这场十九世纪末期的印象主义运动的矛盾之处，分析了印象主义群体在艺术家个人的主张之下形成了的连贯整体的悖论。学术艺术和现代抽象绘画之间的道路漫长而艰辛。作者逐一分析这场艺术运动的基本元素，通过每位艺术家的作品考察了个人的需求是如何催生出现代绘画。

Mega Square的《莫奈》通过优美地展示印象主义的作品，带领我们探索十九世纪绘画大师之一——莫奈的非凡的作品。莫奈的风景画和日常生活场景画中画锋急促，阐释了他对于光线和色彩的迷恋。对印象主义运动的爱好者来说，这本小书是一份完美的礼物。
Raphael
￥61.23
拉斐尔（Raphael，1483-1520），意大利文艺复兴鼎盛时期的画家和建筑家，是位超越时代的天才人物。他与米开朗琪罗和莱昂纳多达芬奇并称为古典艺术的“文艺复兴三杰”，它们的作品展现了和谐和几何的多种风格。作为文艺复兴时期的大家之一，作为欧洲皇室和罗马教廷的艺术家，拉斐尔的作品包括了多种神学和哲学的主题，包括但不限于著名的圣母玛利亚画像。拉斐尔成长的环境和经历使他更倾向于将人文主义的理想和宗教相结合，从而在心中树立起坚定的信念，即艺术是揭开自然之美面纱的必然中介。
Alphonse Mucha
￥110.28
Born in 1860 in a small Czech town, Alphonse Mucha (1860-1939) was an artist on the forefront of Art Nouveau, the modernist movement that swept Paris in the 1910s, marking a return to the simplicity of natural forms, and changing the world of art and design forever. In fact, Art Nouveau was known to insiders as the “Mucha style” for the legions of imitators who adapted the master’s celebrated tableaux. Today, his distinctive depictions of lithe young women in classical dress have become a pop cultural touchstone, inspiring album covers, comic books, and everything in between. Patrick Bade and Victoria Charles offer readers an inspiring survey of Mucha’s career, illustrated with over one hundred lustrous images, from early Parisian advertisements and posters for Sandra Bernhardt, to the famous historical murals painted just before his death, at the age of 78, in 1939.
Van Gogh
￥40.79
文森特·梵·高的生活和创作是如此紧密地联系在一起，以至于不了解他的生平便无法理解其作品。他作为生存环境的局外人而不被人理解成为痛苦的现代艺术殉难者的化身。一篇文章这样描述他，“一个可怕的疯狂的天才，常常表现卓越，有时荒诞，总是站在近乎病态的边缘。”1888年2月，文森特离开巴黎前往阿尔勒，那几个月是他一生中产的时期，次年他开始了著名的自残行为并且先后三次住院。据说他是在1890年7月29日，在一片田野里朝自己开枪自杀的，他的弟弟特奥这样描述他生命的后时刻，“他说想自杀，当时我坐在他身边向他保证我们会努力治愈他······但他回答说，悲哀将会永远持续。”
August Macke

奥古斯特·麦克（1887-1914），德国表现主义大师。德国表现主义萌芽于19世纪早期，主张放弃勾勒物理实在的艺术，转而致力于谋求情绪的表达，尤其注重于表达悲惨和恐惧的黑暗情绪。麦克是色彩与形体大师，创作了很多吸引人眼球、引起观赏者强烈共鸣的作品。他的笔下既有阳光明媚的突尼斯街道，也有阴云密布的波恩大教堂和那些不知名的拥挤的火车站。在这本书中，作者沃尔特·科恩回顾了这位艺术家短暂的一生，看似潜力无限的他，却终英年早逝。
Egon Schiele
￥110.28
Egon Schiele’s work is so distinctive that it resists categorisation. Admitted to the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts at just sixteen, he was an extraordinarily precocious artist, whose consummate skill in the manipulation of line, above all, lent a taut expressivity to all his work. Profoundly convinced of his own significance as an artist, Schiele achieved more in his abruptly curtailed youth than many other artists achieved in a full lifetime. His roots were in the Jugendstil of the Viennese Secession movement. Like a whole generation, he came under the overwhelming influence of Vienna’s most charismatic and celebrated artist, Gustav Klimt. In turn, Klimt recognised Schiele’s outstanding talent and supported the young artist, who within just a couple of years, was already breaking away from his mentor’s decorative sensuality. Beginning with an intense period of creativity around 1910, Schiele embarked on an unflinching exposé of the human form – not the least his own – so penetrating th
Russian Avant-Garde
￥110.28
The Russian Avant-garde was born at the turn of the 20th century in pre-revolutionary Russia. The intellectual and cultural turmoil had then reached a peak and provided fertile soil for the formation of the movement. For many artists influenced by European art, the movement represented a way of liberating themselves from the social and aesthetic constraints of the past. It was these Avant-garde artists who, through their immense creativity, gave birth to abstract art, thereby elevating Russian culture to a modern level. Such painters as Kandinsky, Malevich, Goncharova, Larionov, and Tatlin, to name but a few, had a definitive impact on 20th-century art.
Paul Gauguin
￥85.76
On 8 May 1903, having lost a futile and fatally exhausting battle with colonial officials, threatened with a ruinous fine and an imprisonment for allegedly instigating the natives to mutiny and slandering the authorities, after a week of acute physical sufferings endured in utter isolation, an artist who had devoted himself to glorifying the pristine harmony of Oceania’s tropical nature and its people died. There is bitter irony in the name given by Gauguin to his house at Atuona – “Maison du Jouir” (House of Pleasure) – and in the words carved on its wood reliefs, Soyez amoureuses et vous serez heureuses (Be in love and you will be happy) and Soyez mystérieuses (Be mysterious). After receiving news of the death of their old enemy, the bishop and the brigadier of gendarmes – the pillars of the local colonial regime – hastened to demonstrate their fatherly concern for the salvation of the sinner’s soul by having him buried in the sanctified ground of a Catholic cemetery. Only a small gr
Early Italian Painting
￥110.28
在古拜占庭传统的宏伟壮观与乔托（Giotto）预言的现代性之间摇摆，早期意大利绘画强调了场重要的美学运动（这也带来了之后的文艺复兴）——意大利原始艺术。这些革命性的艺术家们不再在墙壁上创作壁画，他们尝试新的媒介和技巧，在木板上创造了幅可以移动的绘画作品。为了强调所代表人物的神性，画中人物的脸庞震惊了欣赏者。亮丽的金边框背景用来强调主题的虔诚与信仰，优雅的线条和色彩强化了明确的象征性选择。终，意大利早期绘画艺术家希望能够以无形胜有形。在这本华丽的著作中，作者强调了科学与佛罗伦萨画派之间的对抗在艺术史演变中的重要性。读者能够从中发现，在这些被遗忘的杰作中，神圣开始展现出人形，为人神同形同性打开了零散但具有决定性的大门，为文艺复兴所珍视的价值观开辟了道路。

Modigliani
￥40.79
Modigliani (1884-1920) was a painter of great unhappiness in his native Italy and felt only sorrow in his adopted country of France. Out of this discontent came forth Modigliani’s original work, which was influenced by African art, the Cubists, and drunken nights in Montparnasse. His portrayal of women—sensual bodies, almost aggressive nudity, and mysterious faces—expresses their suffering and feelings of being unloved and unjustly disregarded. Modigliani died at the age of 36.
Sargent
￥61.23
Sargent was born in Florence, in 1856, the son of cultivated parents. When Sargent entered the school of Carolus-Duran he attained much more than the average pupils. His father was a retired Massachusetts gentleman, having practised medicine in Philadelphia. Sargent’s home life was penetrated with refinement, and outside it were the beautiful influences of Florence, combining the charms of sky and hills with the wonders of art in the galleries and the opportunities of an intellectual and artistic society. Accordingly, when Sargent arrived in Paris, he was not only a skilful draughtsman and painter as a result of his study of the Italian masters, but he also had a refined and cultivated taste, which perhaps had an even greater influence upon his career. Later in Spain, it was chiefly upon the lessons learned from Velázquez that he found his own brilliant method. Sargent belongs to America, but is claimed by others as a citizen of the world, or a cosmopolitan. Sargent, with the exception
Art Nouveau
￥61.23
作为对工业革命的回应，新艺术运动以装饰和建筑风格发端。新艺术运动初的目标是通过回归自然主题，创造新的自然美学。该运动中的设计常常伴有植物图案和高度风格化、反大起大落曲线的细致刻画，是谓之新艺术风格。 为了达到该目标，诸如古斯塔夫克林姆(Gustav Klimt)、科罗曼穆塞尔(Koloman Moser)、安东尼高迪（Antoni Gaudi）、扬托罗普（Jan Toorop）、威廉莫里斯(William Morris)等艺术家更加偏爱技术创新和形式新颖。新艺术运动试图将艺术融合进生活的所有侧面，从物质的家具到家中的装饰物品再到建筑物；建立在艺术与日常生活相融合的艺术哲学之上。1900年在巴黎世界博览会大获成功之后，这一趋势继续流行且营销了不少艺术家以及装饰艺术运动。新艺术运动的继承者在次世界大战之后依然层出不穷。所以说新艺术运动时装饰艺术“文艺复兴”的核心，一点都不为过。
