‎Bea Mombaers - items & interiors‎

‎, Luster uitgeverij, 2020 Gebonden, Hardcover Linnen, 240 pages, 21 x 27 cm,. ISBN 9789460582530.‎

‎Bea Mombaers - items & interiors : two words that sum up the life of interior stylist Bea Mombaers. They exemplify how the foundation of Bea's world is formed by her innate fascination for things with a past life, for objects that tell an extraordinary story, combined with an unsurpassed sense of how to create a unique atmosphere. Over the past three decades Bea Mombaers has blossomed from a passionate collector into a reputable name in the international art and design scene. From the start, her lifestyle boutique in Knokke, ?Items? was the place to be for rare collector?s items, original works of art, vintage furniture and a selection of exclusive homeware articles. Together with photographer Raf Maes and designer Geoffrey Brusatto, Bea spent the past two years travelling through her own universe. They visited homes both in Belgium and abroad and made beautiful images of the interiors that Bea has put together, but also of intriguing details, beautiful still lifes and objects that tell a story that Bea loves. The result is a beautiful book in which the images are arranged according to the different moments in a day. ‎

‎Sean Scully Géographies‎

‎, Silvana Editorale, 2024 PB, 300 x 240 mm, 192 pages , 192 Color illustrations, EN-GE edition. ISBN 9788836658077.‎

‎Over the past six decades, Sean Scully has been connected with the most diverse geographical locations, be it his many years of living in London, New York, Barcelona, Mooseurach, Berlin or Aix-en-Provence. In addition, he is constantly inspired by international exhibition projects and trips - such as to Morocco, Mexico and the island of Eleuthera. His restless attitude and always being keen to remain on the move, has left deep traces in his artistic work. Géographies therefore, focuses on Scully's life stages and travels, the places where he lives, works and which particularly inspire him through 35 paintings, as well as watercolours, pastels and drawings by the artist. Many of his abstract compositions reflect his perception of urban space, the dynamic rhythm of the big city or the liberating calm of nature. During the last nine years, Sean Scully has returned to figuration and formed a very personal credo that goes beyond the individual to something more universal.‎

‎, Hatje Cantz 2018, softcover 305 x 245 mm, 176 p, 120 illustrations , ENG edition. ISBN 9783775744454.‎

‎Master of stillness: Balthus, the most enigmatic painter of our time, in a large retrospective In his multifaceted, multilayered oeuvre Balthus (1908-2001), one of the last great twentieth-century masters, pursued a path that ran exactly contrary to the modern avant-garde movements. As quiet as they are intriguing, his works feature colliding contrasts, combining reality and dream, eroticism and innocence, practicality and mystery, the familiar and the uncanny in unique ways. The Fondation Beyeler's retrospective unites around fifty significant paintings from all phases of this legendary artist's career, reflecting the ambiguous presentation of his imagery. The exhibition and its companion catalogue begin with the monumental, enigmatic masterpiece, Passage du Commerce-Saint-Andre (1952-54), in which Balthus's intensive study of the dimensions of space and time and their relationship to figure and object is especially apparent. Exhibition:Fondation Beyeler, Riehen / Basel, September 2 - January 13, 2019‎

‎Septuagint of Ruth. Translation Technique, Textual History, and Theological Issues‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, 293 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:32 tables b/w., Language(s):English, Greek, Hebrew. ISBN 9782503612263.‎

‎Summary For many years, the Septuagint of Ruth (LXX-Ruth) has been considered a literal translation. Several authors have emphasized the similarities between the Greek text and the Masoretic Text, while others have also noted the divergences. In the wake of this second stream, this book seeks to answer the crucial question: How can we nuance the definition of ?literalism? for LXX-Ruth, and which innovations and specifics can be detected in this text? A fresh analysis of the Greek rendering of the Hebrew proper names, toponyms, hapax legomena as well as legal aspects makes it possible to develop new perspectives on the translation technique of LXX-Ruth and to highlight several characteristics of this text. This volume, moreover, extends the discussion by including the analysis of the theological accents of LXX-Ruth and an up-to-date presentation of its textual history including the fragments of the book in the Dead Sea Scrolls. Overall, this volume enhances our understanding of the linguistic and literary background of the LXX, as well as its specific features. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction List of abbreviations Chapter 1: LXX translation technique Chapter 2: The textual material of the book of Ruth Chapter 3: Studies on LXX-Ruth Chapter 4: Catalogue of the textual variants Chapter 5: Analysis of the Greek rendering of the Hebrew personal names and toponyms as a criterion for characterising the LXX translator's translation technique Chapter 6: Analysis of the Greek rendering of the Hebrew hapax legomena as a criterion for characterising the LXX translator's translation technique Chapter 7: Analysis of the Greek rendering of the Hebrew legal aspects as a criterion for characterising the LXX translator's translation technique Chapter 8: Theological accents in LXX-Ruth Chapter 9: Conclusions on the characteristics of LXX-Ruth Appendix 1: Synopsis of the textual material Appendix 2: A hypothesis regarding the identification of fragment 2 of 2QRuthb?

‎Travelling Matters across the Mediterranean. Rereading, Reshaping, Reusing Objects (10th-20th centuries)‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 288 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:9 b/w, 24 col., 2 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503610054.‎

‎Summary In the last two decades, objects have become increasingly relevant to historical studies as the primary focus of research discussing cross-cultural relations. Objects are produced, used, modified, preserved, and destroyed according to historically specific political and cultural settings, thus providing researchers with information and insights about their original background. However, they can also throw light on a large array of cross-cultural encounters when their mobility is put to the fore. Objects can move by being bought, gifted, bartered, and sold, borrowed or stolen, collected and dispersed, just as they can be modified, repaired, reshaped, repurposed, and destroyed in the process. The Mediterranean, as a barrier and as a meeting place for different polities and communities, and as the setting of conflicted experiences of cultural, political, economic, and social transformation, easily lends itself to this kind of historical analysis. Featuring articles on Byzantine imperial silks and bronze doors from southern Italy, eastern luxuries in Istanbul and African bolsas from the Canary Islands, Arabic geographies and Hebrew religious texts travelling from shore to shore and from manuscript to the press, and the 'dead' bodies of holy women and men, this volume intends to tackle objects as sources and subjects of the history of cross-cultural encounters in innovative ways: focusing on the 'second-handedness' of displaced objects across the Mediterranean, the volume intersects different chronologies - from antiquity to the present-day - and varying scales, from the individual objects to the much larger one of the histories of their reinterpretation and repurposing.
