‎Georg Baselitz Belle Haleine‎

‎, Silvana Editorale, 2024 PB, 310 x 260 mm, 112 pages, 60 Color illustrations, EN-IT edition. ISBN 9788836657896.‎

‎This volume accompanies the exhibition Belle Haleine by German artist Georg Baselitz (1938) - a leading figure in the world of contemporary art - hosted in the splendid setting of the Galleria degli Antichi in Sabbioneta (Mantua), the Ideal City founded by Vespasiano Gonzaga Colonna. Among the works presented - chosen from among the most significant in his artistic career - are imposing sculptures, large paintings on canvas, and the ten provocative engravings collectively entitled Belle Haleine in homage to Marcel Duchamp, an artist to whom Baselitz - provocatively - often refers in his work, and first exhibited in 1963. The volume offers a broad view of the multifaceted nature of the pioneer of neo-expressionist art, whose hallmark is to reproduce figures "upside down".‎

‎Bauhaus Imaginista‎

‎, Thames & Hudson, 2019 hardcover, 312 pages Illustrated. 32x25cm, Language English, *New. ISBN 9780500021934.‎

‎Featuring the latest research commissioned on the occasion of the Bauhaus centenary, this book explores the global influence of the renowned Bauhaus school of arts and its famed artists. Bauhaus Imaginista marks the centennial anniversary of this fascinating and popular school of art, which championed the idea of artists working together as a community. The Bauhaus reconnected art with everyday life and was active in the fields of architecture, performance, design, and visual art. Founded by Walter Gropius, its faculty included such luminaries as Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, L szl Moholy-Nagy, and Josef Albers. Placing emphasis on the international dissemination and reception of the Bauhaus, this book expresses the Bauhaus' influence, philosophy, and history beyond Germany. Rethinking the school from an international perspective, it sets its entanglements against a century of geopolitical change, as many of its artists fled World War II Germany. Bauhaus Imaginista takes readers on a global visual tour of Bauhaus influence from art and design museums to campus galleries and art institutes in India, Japan, China, Russia, Brazil, Berlin, and the United States.‎

‎, Snoeck Publishers (Belgium), 2023 HB, 255 x 210 mm, 304 p, 220 illustraties, NL edition. ISBN 9789461617972.‎

‎Tijdens de eerste helft van de 20e eeuw maakte de Frans-Belgische kunstenaar Yvonne Serruys (1873-1953) carri re in Parijs. Afkomstig uit een kunstminnend burgergezin in Menen kreeg ze een degelijke intellectuele, muzikale en artistieke scholing. Die werd vervolledigd bij de luminist Emile Claus in Astene en bij pointillist Georges Lemmen in Brussel. Vanaf 1898 stelde ze haast jaarlijks tentoon op de Parijse salons. Vanaf haar dertigste betrok ze er een eigen atelier en woonst. Omstreeks 1905, na een succesvolle eerste solotentoonstelling in Parij, maakte ze voorgoed de overstap naar de beeldhouwkunst. Ze realiseerde nu vooral statuettes van naakte jonge vrouwen in spontane poses. Tegelijk ontwierp ze honderden modellen voor decoratieve objecten in glas(pasta), en nog voor de Eerste Wereldoorlog twee monumentale beeldengroepen voor de Parijse openbare ruimte. Tijdens het interbellum kwamen daar nog opdrachten voor publieke monumenten bij, in Belgi , Frankrijk en Tunesi , en enkele kunstintegratieprojecten in de Atlantische Pyrenee n, alle in een art-decostijl. Yvonne Serruys wilde nu ook de 'nieuwe vrouw' weergeven vanuit haar eigen vrouwelijke blik en ervaring, en zo bijdragen aan de vrouwenemancipatie. Wellicht ge nspireerd door haar indrukwekkende netwerk in Parijs en de 'salons du samedi' die ze er organiseerde met haar man, de Franse schrijver Pierre Mille, hield ze er uitgesproken opvattingen over lichamelijkheid en gender op na. Onder meer gebaseerd op haar nieuw ontdekte memoires, belicht dit boek diverse aspecten van het leven en werk van deze veelzijdige kunstenaar, die een scharnierperiode in de moderne tijd beleefde en mee vormgaf.‎

‎Sculpting Abroad Nationality and Mobility of Sculptors in the Nineteenth Century‎

‎, Brepols 2020, 2020 160 p., 28 b/w ills, 39 col. ills, 216 x 280 mm, English, Hardcover,. ISBN 9782503580272.‎

‎An edited volume reflecting upon the transnational mobility of sculptors and its implications for the artists and their art during the long nineteenth century. This volume analyses the international mobility of sculptors and their work in the nineteenth century. The creation of nation-states at that time coincided with an increasingly international outlook shared by artists, their commissioners, sellers, buyers and critics. Sculptors were encouraged to study abroad, and were recognized for their experience and success overseas. As they were very much dependent on commissions, they had to travel to provide for their revenues. While abroad, they were nonetheless expected to represent their nation and showcase their e essays in this collection reflect upon the theoretical and practical implications of the many aspects of transnationality, travel and (cultural) mobility for nineteenth-century sculptors, their work and their careers, by addressing the role of, among others, education, execution, commissions, exhibitions, art criticism and the art market. The main focus is on French, Belgian and Italian sculptors and their works but other countries are represented too, and well-known as well as lesser-known sculptors, through general articles and case studies. Tom Verschaffel is professor in cultural history at KU Leuven. His research concerns the intellectual and cultural history of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and more specifically the history of historical writing, the popular representation of history and cultural nationalism, the history of cultural infrastructure and of cultural transfers. Art historian Marjan Sterckx is associate professor in Art History at Ghent University, where she recently launched the research group ThIS: The Inside Story: Art, Interior design & architecture 1750-1950. Her research concerns the intersections between sculpture, gender, photography and the interior.‎

‎Summary Around 1600, a new style of sculpture started to evolve and flourish in Central Europe and in the German-speaking lands. Dramatic wood and stone figures peopled the palaces, gardens and churches of Munich, Berlin, Dresden, D sseldorf, Vienna and Prague. These great works of art are little known outside Germany and Austria, partly because their colour and vivacity are so astoundingly different from the sculpture that was being produced in Italy, France and elsewhere in Northern Europe at that time. They are overpowering, and amongst the greatest works of art produced in Europe in the seventeenth century. This groundbreaking book explores their history and conveys their visual power.

‎Ideas of the World in Early Medieval English Literature‎

‎, Brepols, 2022 Hardback, 442 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:17 b/w, 7 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503599571.‎

‎Summary Across three thematically-linked sections, this volume charts the development of competing geographical, national, and imperial identities and communities in early medieval England. Literary works in Old English and Latin are considered alongside theological and historical texts from a range of disciplinary perspectives. Accounts of travel, foreign contacts, conversion, migration, landscape, nation, empire, and conquest are set within the continual flow of people and ideas from East to West, from continent to island and back, across the period. The fifteen contributors investigate how the early medieval English positioned themselves spatially and temporally in relation to their insular neighbours and other peoples and cultures. Several chapters explore the impact of Greek and Latin learning on Old English literature, while others extend the discussion beyond the parameters of Europe to consider connections with Asia and the Far East. Together these essays reflect ideas of inclusivity and exclusivity, connectivity and apartness, multiculturalism and insularity that shaped pre-Conquest England.

‎, Borgerhoff & Lamberigts, 2020 Hardcover 260 PAGES, 24x17cm English. ISBN 9789463931380.‎

‎In C.STONE, the artist and authors deliver a kaleidoscopic image of tentative alternative understandings of social and individual phenomena. Art plays its role of catalyst and provocateur of complex human and creative processes. The place in which the book is set is the problematic border area of Mexico and Texas, USA, the goal of the publication is a state-of-the-art scanning of the attracting and repelling forces that appear between intellectual and sensual antipodes. The book's leitmotif is the artist's efforts to change the course of action and thought in the direction of mutual understanding.‎

‎In enkele decennia ontwikkelde Korea zich van agrarische maatschappij tot een van 's werelds succesrijkste industri?le economie?n. Maar naast het jachtige stedelijke leven hebben het landelijke leven en de natuur hun serene schoonheid behouden en is het volk trouw gebleven aan de culturele tradities. In dit boek wordt een uniek beeld gegeven van dit in het Westen nog vrijwel onbekend land. nEn quelques d?vennies, la Cor?e est pass?e d'une soci?t? agraire ? une des plus fructueuses ?conomies industrielles du monde. Mais aux c?t?s de la fi?vreuse vie citadine, la vie rurale et la nature ont su garder leur beaut? sereine et le peuple est rest? fid?le ? ses traditions culturelles. Ce livre donne une image incomparable de ce pays encore si peu connu de l'Occident. nOver the span of only a few decades, Korea has transformed itself from an agrarian society into one of the world's most successful industrial economies. But despite today's frenetic urban pace, Korea's natural environment retains its serene beauty and its people have remained true to their cultural traditions. This book offers a unique view of this too little known emerging giant.‎

‎De muziek van B la Bart k ontmoet de architectuur van Robbrecht en Daem ? een zeldzame dialoog tussen ruimte en tijd Bart k in Space and Time brengt een uitzonderlijke ontmoeting tussen architectuur en muziek, tussen ruimte en tijd. Het boek kijkt terug op een experimentele avond in Bozar, waar onder leiding van dirigent G bor K li het Symfonieorkest Vlaanderen Bart ks Muziek voor snaren, percussie en celesta (1937) uitvoerde, terwijl Robbrecht en Daem architecten deze klanken vertaalden in architecturale vormen. De bijzondere dialoog tussen beide disciplines wordt verbeeld en toegelicht met tekeningen, berekeningen, foto?s, inspiratiebronnen en notities, aangevuld met een diepgaande analyse door musicoloog Mark Delaere. Sinds hun oprichting in 1975 bouwen Robbrecht en Daem architecten aan een internationaal geprezen oeuvre. Paul Robbrecht, Hilde Daem en Johannes Robbrecht zoeken steeds naar die ene bijzondere ruimte, die onvergetelijke plek. Hun architectuur is nooit louter object, maar steeds een dialoog ? met gebruikers, met de omgeving, met de geschiedenis, met kunstenaars.‎
