Bauhaus
￥122.54
The appendix, with its compressed chronology summarising the history of the Bauhaus and evoking parallel events in culture, politics, technology and science, allows for individual conclusions and the identification of links and references not included in the text.
Bikini Story
￥122.54
The beginning of a new millennium – let alone a new century – simply demands a quick but thorough look back at the past hundred years. Different outline sketches of the history of the twentieth century might all too quickly resort to headline-style formulae about “a century of war and terrorism”, “a century of barbarism”, and omit any mention of a great number of events and triumphs that should be rightfully regarded as entirely positive. These might seem to have been of secondary significance in relation to more sombre events, but they certainly cannot be excluded if our historical round-up of a hundred years is to retain its proper balance, if it is to be truly historical, and not be reduced to checklists of damage and destruction, of wars and disasters alike and their cost of lives and property, of the numbers of casualties, and of the people, places, and things that are now as if they had never been.
Bonnard and the Nabis
￥122.54
The Nabis group, assembled by Paul Sérusier, was comprised of several members from the Académie Julian. In refusing to comply with the rules of Impressionism, these artists claimed instead to be largely influenced by Gaugin. Their name, derived from the Hebrew Nahbi, signifies a prophet or a visionary, thus symbolizing their will to discover the sacred nature of writing. They were largely influenced by Japanese art, most notably wood engravings, as well as popular and primitive art and the art of the symbolic artist, Pierre Puvis de Chavannes. Although they all differed considerably from one another, there were two lines of thought in particular on which they all agreed; firstly, subjective misinterpretation, born within the artist’s emotions accentuating certain aspects of the subject that is being depicted, and secondly, objective misinterpretation ensuring the depiction finds its place in the fundamental order of the work. Their art is characterized by an absence of perspective and
Bosch
￥122.54
在电子游戏发明之前，希罗尼穆斯波希（Hieronymus Bosch）的笔下就已经创作出了恐怖但丑萌的怪物，还带有一点小幽默。他的作品是自信的宣言，有力地挑战了背叛基督教教义之人的精神恐慌。波希生于1450年，死于1516年，他的出生之时正值文艺复兴的高潮时期，也见证了这一时期的宗教战争。中世纪传统和价值观轰然倒塌，为新世纪的到来开辟了道路。在这样的新世纪里，信念失去了力量和魔力。 ?波希开始警告那些不信教者和对上帝丧失了信仰的人——等待是危险的。波希相信所有人必须要有自己的道德选择，他关注地狱、天堂和欲望的主题，才华横溢地挖掘了水果和植物的象征意义，让他的意向充满了强烈的性欲色彩。这本独特的选集展示了波希为引人入胜的作品，小巧的形式也让它成为了一份完美的礼物。
Gustave Courbet
￥122.54
居斯塔夫库尔贝（Gustave Courbet，1819－－1877）的出生地奥尔南（Ornans）靠近美丽的杜河峡谷的地方，也正是这个地方，让这个男孩成长为男人，并培养了他对于这片风景的热爱。 在本质上，他是个革命者，天生具有反抗现存秩序和独立的精神；他咆哮和残酷的性格使得他的革命性不仅仅体现在艺术中，也体现在政治上。在这两个方面，他的革命精神不证自明。他到巴黎去学习艺术，但是他却不属于任何一个著名的大师的工作室。在此之前在母国，他只学习了很少的绘画技巧，他更愿意去卢浮宫中学习大师的杰作。初，他的绘画作品还不足以引起任何的反对声音，并被一些美术展览馆收录。而面对之后的《奥尔南的葬礼》，批评家激烈地抨击道：“这是一场伪装的葬礼，在这六米长的画布中，只有啼笑皆非，没有痛哭流涕。”确实，对库尔贝作品真实的攻击便是鲜活的血肉。他真实地刻画了男男女女的真实面貌和他们从事的事情。他笔下的人物，绝非剥夺了个性、理想化类型的男男女女，也绝不是摆着造型来装饰画布。他宣扬真实的、原本的东西，宣称真理才是艺术家追求的目标。所以，在1855年的世界博览会上，他将他的作品从展览厅中取出，放在入口外的一个小木厅旁。在小木厅上他悬挂了一张大写的横幅，上面写着：“库尔贝——现实主义者。”和每一个革命者一样，库尔贝也是位*主义者。他忽视了这样的事实：自然的真理隐藏在不同的伪装下，不同的视角和经历都会对其有所影响。相反，他坚持认为艺术仅仅是自然的复制品，重新选择和排列也就无关紧要了。在追求美的过程中，库尔贝常常选择那些比较丑陋的主题。但是他同样也有审美观，这体现在他的风景画中。这种美感与他深厚的情感相混合，体现在了他的海景画中——他后一幅令人印象深刻的作品。不仅如此，无论是否吸引观赏者，他所有的作品都证实了他是一位强有力的画家，以宽广、自由的姿态，色彩的美感和坚固的颜料，使得他的代表作真实而震撼人心。
Lempicka
￥122.54
Tamara de Lempicka created some of the most iconic images of the twentieth century. Her portraits and nudes of the years 1925-1933 grace the dust jackets of more books than the work of any other artist of her time. Publishers understand that in reproduction, these pictures have an extraordinary power to catch the eye and kindle the interest of the public. In recent years, the originals of the images have fetched record sums at Christie’s and Sotheby’s. Beyond the purchasing power of most museums, these paintings have been eagerly collected by film and pop stars.
Remington
￥122.54
After the New World had been settled by European immigrants landing on America’s eastern coastline, the only direction to go was west. This new country contained untold fortunes, and drew adventurers who wished to explore this vast frontier, and settlers who longed to make it their own.
Russian Painting
￥122.54
At the time when Dionysius and his sons were active, ownership of icons became increasingly common. Previously nobles and merchants had begun the practice of displaying them in a place of honour in their homes, sometimes even in a special room, but now peasant families who could afford it also began to hang icons in a krasny ugol, or“beautiful corner”.
The Art of Champa
￥122.54
Evoking Champa means glorifying death, sanctifying remnants, magnifying clues, singing the praises of mourning, and reconstructing history. Champa only exists now in the memories of a diminishing collection of living people who desire eternal life, in a half-audible melody – necessarily exotic – that is hummed by a few disquieted spirits.
The Brueghels
￥122.54
After an initial period of brilliance, during which time it rose to achieve perfection, Flemish art gradually fell into decline. Although thorough studies of its origins have revealed works, in particular those of the miniaturists, that are deserving of notice and which predate the artistic careers of the two Van Eycks, Hubert and Jan, the genius of the brothers remains stunningly spectacular, surpassing that of their predecessors to such a degree that it would be impossible to find an equally sudden, decisive and glorious evolution in the history of art.
Utamaro
￥122.54
如果色情也有一个名字的话，那肯定是喜多川歌麿。喜多川歌麿细腻地勾画了构成江户时代的乐之园。丰富多样的画布，天鹅长长的脖颈，神秘的面孔，寥寥几笔，便是东方的肉欲之欢。

Al treilea volum al seriei Clubul fetelor dependente de ciocolat? ?nc? o poveste delicioas? din seria Clubul fetelor dependente de ciocolat?, al?turi de Pasiunea lui Cherry ?i Cuf?rul lui Skye. Summer s-a visat dintotdeauna dansatoare ?i, c?nd apare un loc la ?coala de balet, ?i-l dore?te dureros de tare. Gimnaziul se termin? ?i ?ncepe vacan?a dar, spre deosebire de geam?na Skye ?i de celelalte surori, Summer nu are timp de petreceri pe plaj?. Audi?ia devine noua ei obsesie, iar lucrurile ?ncep s? scape grav de sub control... Cu c?t ?ncearc? mai mult s? ating? perfec?iunea, cu at?t se pierde mai tare. Va realiza Summer – cu ajutorul b?iatului care vrea s?-i fie mai mult dec?t prieten – c? visurile vin ?n tot felul de forme ?i m?rimi? ?Emo?ionant, tandru, de neuitat.“ – The Guardian ?Fiica mea era o cititoare foarte selectiv?, a?a c? am vrut s? scriu c?r?i pe care s? nu le lase din m?n?, pove?ti care s? o fac? s? viseze, s?-?i pun? ?ntreb?ri, s? mediteze ?i – de ce nu? – s? ?n?eleag? mai bine via?a.“ – Cathy Cassidy ?Sora mea ro?e?te p?n? ?n albul ochilor ?i pare c? ?i-a pierdut cu des?v?r?ire darul vorbirii.

Apoi r?de cu gura p?n? la urechi, iar Finch ?i ?ntoarce un z?mbet la fel de luminos. ?n clipa ?n care noi celelalte sim?im miros de ars, e greu de spus dac? acesta vine de la privirile lor electrizate, ori de la fierul de c?lcat pe care Skye l-a abandonat pe unul dintre cele mai bune furouri vintage ale ei.“

弗里达卡罗（Frida Kahlo）与迭戈里维拉（Diego Rivera）在1928年相识，当年弗里达才21岁，而迭戈42岁。当时迭戈已经是举世闻名的画家，而弗里达还在努力中。 这对备受折磨的组合——特别是对于弗里达来说，在痛苦和磨难中催生了大量艺术创作。弗里达时常处于丈夫的阴影下，忍受着他的不忠和她的妒忌，将所有的痛苦倾注在了画布上，逐渐吸引了公众的目光。在美洲和欧洲两块大陆上，坚定的艺术家宣告着自由的自白书，留下了卓越绝伦的才华。 在这本书中，作者Gerry Souter不仅为我们带来了艺术家的传记，也热情地凸显了这两位二十世纪伟大的墨西哥艺术家之间的联系。
Art of War
￥122.54
在历史的进程中，很多战争改变了这个世界的政治文化格局。尽管重大事件取决于战争的剧变和激烈程度，战争也影响了整个民族和几代人的身份定位，因而产生了深远的文化效应。尽管在激烈动荡的时期，战争对身体和情绪造成了破坏，但也刺激了丰富的艺术创造。几个世纪以来，伴随着战争的创伤数不胜数的艺术家创造了不朽的作品来祭奠战争中*戏剧性的时刻，从而将它们永恒定格在历史中。 这本著作中优美的画作刻画了著名的战役和战争场景，形象地加入了传说的中国孙子兵法的说明，以及记载了不同战争中重要的时刻，每一篇都由著名的作者撰写。从乌切洛（Uccello）的《圣罗马洛战争》（The Battle of San Romano）到毕加索的《格尔尼卡》（Guernica），这本著作为我们展现了战争灵感下艺术作品的魅力以及它们所展现的人类历史。
African Art

Well-known and appreciated by Africanists, Maurice Delafosse (1870-1926) knew how to exceed the requirements of his environment and of his time for the benefit of an authentic Africa.
William Morris
￥122.54
For us there is a violent contrast between the beauty of nature and the ugliness of man’s work which most past ages have felt little or not at all. We think of a town as spoiling the country, and even of a single modern house as a blot on the face of the earth. But in the past, until the eighteenth century, men thought that their own handiwork heightened the beauty of nature or was, at least, in perfect harmony with it. We are aware of this harmony in a village church or an old manor house or a thatched cottage, however plain these may be; and wonder at it as a secret that we have lost.
English Painting
￥122.54
Strictly speaking, the word school applies only in a very imperfect manner to the growth of painting in England. Generally it is used to designate a special collection of traditions and processes, a particular method, a peculiar style in design, and an equally peculiar taste in colouring – all contributing to the representation of a national ideal existing in the minds of the artists of the same country at the same time. In this sense, we speak of the Flemish school, the Dutch school, the Spanish school, several Italian schools, and the French school, but not of the English school. We cannot apply the word to English art, for it is just this absence of any national tradition that strikes one most forcibly in studying English painting. Each painter seems to stand by himself, and is, so to speak, isolated from his brother artists. No trace is to be found of any uniformity of method or of teaching, none of systematic instruction by the State, the Academy, or the Fine Art school. English a
Aestheticism in Art
￥122.54
It is no wonder that this subject was considered inexplicable for so long, as the nature of many parts of it cannot possibly come within the reach of mere men with pens; otherwise those ingenious gentlemen who have published treatises about it (and who wrote much more learnedly than can be expected from one who never took up the pen before) would not so soon have been bewildered in their accounts of it and obliged so suddenly to turn into the broad and more beaten path of moral beauty, in order to extricate themselves from the difficulties they seem to have met with in this. What’s more, they were forced for the same reasons to amuse their readers with amazing (but often misapplied) encomiums on deceased painters and their performances, wherein they continually discoursed effects instead of developing causes. After much flattery, in very pleasing language, one is fairly set down just from where they were picked up, honestly confessed to that in terms of grace, the main point in questio
Persian Art
￥122.54
This book consists of two sections. The wide-ranging introduction attempts to outline the basic stages in the development of Persian Art, from the first appearance of Persian peoples on the Iranian plateau during the 10th-8th centuries BCE up to the 19th century CE. Detailed commentaries on the works of art reproduced here provide not only factual information (dates, iconography, provenance, techniques, etc.), but are also, in many instances, followed by brief scholarly studies of the examples of Persian art housed in various museums of the former Soviet Union that are, in the authors’ opinion, of the greatest interest and significance. Some of these objects are reproduced and discussed here for the first time.
Central Asian Art
￥122.54
Ever since the Bronze Age and the beginning of the Iron Age, Central Asia has rivalled with classical Eastern Asia (which extended from Mesopotamia to India) in the abilities and skills of its peoples. In the 6th century BCE it was largely conquered by the powerful Achaemenian Dynasty and in the 4th century BCE by Alexander the Great's army which gave it considerable artistic impetus. The period between the 3rd century BCE and the 3rd century CE marked the area with the appearance of powerful Kingdoms: the Parthians of the Arsacid dynasty (south of Turkmenistan, in Persia, and in part of Mesopotamia), the Greco-Bactrians, the Kushans (which included Bactria and the territory beyond Amu-Daria as far as the Indus and the Ganges), the Kangas (that united the Kharezm, the Sogdian, and the northern territories) whose social and cultural development founded an entirely new cultural impulse throughout the territory they controlled.
