Included are an extensive bibliography, and brief chapters on the nature and development of this medium, the technique of making a window in the middle ages, post-medieval reception and documentation, and the historical significance of windows. Most examples are chosen from English or French sites, though the reference material is comprehensive; for instance, the bibliography includes all the catalogues published by thirteen countries in the Corpus Vitrearum series.

‎Cities and Complexity : Understanding Cities with Cellular Automata, Agent-Based Models, and Fractals‎

‎Cambridge, Mass., United States, MIT Press Ltd 2007, 2007 Paperback, 565 pages, ENG, 230 x 205 mm, in very good condition, with over 180 images/ illustrations in b/w. ISBN 9780262524797.‎

‎Mario Carpo provides a subtle and insightful discussion of the intellectual structures that guide architectural composition and the ways that these structures were transformed by the historic shifts from script to print and from hand-made drawings to mechanically reproduced images. He goes on to suggest that the current shift from print to digital representations will have similarly profound consequences. This is a crucial text for anyone interested in the interrelationships of media and design processes. As urban planning moves from a centralized, top-down approach to a decentralized, bottom-up perspective, our conception of urban systems is changing. In Cities and Complexity, Michael Batty offers a comprehensive view of urban dynamics in the context of complexity theory, presenting models that demonstrate how complexity theory can embrace a myriad of processes and elements that combine into organic wholes. He argues that bottom-up processes--in which the outcomes are always uncertain--can combine with new forms of geometry associated with fractal patterns and chaotic dynamics to provide theories that are applicable to highly complex systems such as cities. Batty begins with models based on cellular automata (CA), simulating urban dynamics through the local actions of automata. He then introduces agent-based models (ABM), in which agents are mobile and move between locations. These models relate to many scales, from the scale of the street to patterns and structure at the scale of the urban region. Finally, Batty develops applications of all these models to specific urban situations, discussing concepts of criticality, threshold, surprise, novelty, and phase transition in the context of spatial developments. Every theory and model presented in the book is developed through examples that range from the simplified and hypothetical to the actual. Deploying extensive visual, mathematical, and textual material, Cities and Complexity will be read both by urban researchers and by complexity theorists with an interest in new kinds of computational models.‎

‎Michael Borremans Fire from the Sun,‎

‎, David Zwirner Books , 2018 Gebonden, Hardcover met stofomslag compleet. HB, 254 x 178 mm, 80 pages, throughout colour illustrations. English edition. ISBN 9781941701836.‎

‎Known for his ability to recall classical painting, both through technical mastery and subject matter, Borremans's depiction of the uncanny, the perhaps secret, the bizarre, often surprises, sometimes disturbs the viewer. In this series of work, children are presented alone or in groups against a studio-like backdrop that negates time and space, while underlining the theatrical atmosphere and artifice that exists throughout Borremans's recent work. Reminiscent of cherubs in Renaissance paintings, the toddlers appear as allegories of the human condition, their archetypal innocence contrasted with their suggested deviousness. In his accompanying essay, critic and curator Michael Bracewell .takes an in-depth look into specific paintings, tackling both the highly charged subject matter and the masterly command of the medium. He writes, "The art of Michael Borremans seems always to have been predicated on a confluence of enigma, ambiguity, and painterly poetics-accosting beauty with strangeness; making historic Romanticism subjugate to mysterious controlling forces that are neither crudely malevolent nor necessarily benign." Published on the occasion of Borremans's eponymous exhibition at David Zwirner in Hong Kong,‎

‎Michael Borremans Mark Manders - Double Silence‎

‎, 21st Century Museum Of Art, 2020 Softcover, 164 pages, ills colour & bw, 21 x 27 cm, pb, Japanese/English. ISBN 9784903205878.‎

‎Published in conjunction with a combined exhibition of work by Micha l Borremans and Mark Manders at the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa, this volume documents what turned out to be an remarkable encounter between these two European artists. The delicate experiment of a double show like this one forces interference and tension between two distinct bodies of work, with the work of one artist providing the framework for the other, and vice versa. Nevertheless, it is an exemplary show in which a kind of choreography between Borremans, a painter, and Manders, a sculptor and installation architect, emerges through a sombre colours and formal contrasts.‎

‎Someone is in my House. David Lynch. NL‎

‎, Hannibal Kannibaal , 2018 Hardcover met zwart op snee30 x 24,3 cm / 304 bladzijden / / Quadrichromie /DUTCH / Nederlandstalige editie. . ISBN 9789492677624.‎

‎Het visuele universum van David Lynch: een volledig overzicht I like bad painting, I like organic phenomenons, I like nature to help me as much as anything, I like fire and smoke, I would like to bite my paintings. David Lynch Lynch is een kunstenaar die de laatste veertig jaar onze ogen heeft geopend en onze blikken heeft gericht op de nachtelijke waarheden van de wereld, de waarheid van je dromen, zo gewelddadig en duister en prachtig als die waarheid kan zijn.? Michael Chabon David Lynch (1946) is onmiskenbaar een van de invloedrijkste Amerikaanse film- en televisiemakers van de twintigste eeuw. Zijn beeldend werk is minder bekend, hoewel hij zichzelf voor alles ziet als een beeldend kunstenaar en in zijn vijftigjarige carriere nooit is gestopt met tekenen en schilderen. In honderden schilderijen, tekeningen, foto?s, lampsculpturen, filmstills, collages en installaties, van vroege sleutelwerken tot zeer recente creaties, toont dit boek de uitzonderlijke artistieke kant van Lynch. Net als in zijn bekende films en televisieseries is het lynchiaanse universum ook hier duister, ambigu, onvoorspelbaar, onderhuids dreigend, vaak humoristisch en altijd origineel en stijlvol.‎

‎Warhol on Basquiat : The iconic relationship in Andy Warhol's words & pictures‎

‎, Taschen, 2019 312 pagina's, 29 x 21,5 cm, NEW, hardcover, Engels, Frans, Duits, Spaans, dustjacket. ISBN 9783836525237.‎

‎Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat's complex relationship captivated the art world then and now. At a time when Warhol was already world famous and the elder statesman of New York cool, Basquiat was a downtown talent rising rapidly from the graffiti scene. Together, they forged an electrifying personal and professional partnership. As a prolific documentarian of his own world, Warhol extensively photographed and wrote of his friendship with Basquiat, all played against the backdrop of 1980s downtown New York City. It reveals not only the emotional depth of their relationship but also its ambiguities, extremities, and complexities. Produced in collaboration with The Andy Warhol Foundation and Jean-Michel Basquiat?s estate, this book chronicles the duo?s relationship in hundreds of previously unpublished photographs of Basquiat along with a dynamic cast of characters from Madonna to Grace Jones, Keith Haring to Fela Kuti. The shots are accompanied by entries from the legendary Andy Warhol Diaries, selected collaborative artworks, and extensive ephemera. Touching, intimate, and occasionally sardonic, Warhol on Basquiat is a voyeuristic glimpse into the lives of two of modern art?s brightest stars.‎

‎THE NEW ANTIQUARIANS : At Home with Young Collectors ‎

‎The once rarified and exclusive world of antiques is bursting open thanks to a new generation of collectors. The New Antiquarians captures 17 of the spaces of these young connoisseurs, spirited interiors formed from unorthodox approaches to collecting and living with objects with history. Flouting conventions of good taste and revealing irreverent modes of decorating with antiques that echo the way we consume visual material today, they brazenly blend the historical and the contemporary, embrace anachronism and pastiche, employ serious knowledge with humor and wit, and consider historical objects through the lens of present-day values. The New Antiquarians, featuring residences on both sides of the Atlantic, is an exuberant and accessible entry point into the once staid world of antiques with featured collectors of all stripes, with varied interests and resources. Collectors whose homes are featured include: Jared Austin; Emily Adams Bode Aujla & Aaron Singh Aujla; Pablo Bronstein; Collier Calandruccio; Adam Charlap Hyman; Emily Eerdmans; Jared Frank; Andrew LaMar Hopkins; Kyle Marshall; Sean McNanney & Sinan Tuncay; Avril Nolan & Quy Nguyen; Camille Okhio; Jeremy K.

‎SEEDS OF KNOWLEDGE : Early Modern Illustrated Herbals ‎

‎, Silvana Editoriale, 2023 Hardcover, 528 pages, ENG, 300 x 250 x 45 mm, NEW, over 600 illustrations in fine colours, . ISBN 9788836646869.‎

‎Seeds of Knowledge highlights the collection of 15th to 17th-century European printed herbals of Dr. Peter Goop (Liechtenstein). Herbals were highly illustrated, critical texts to doctors and lay healthcare providers that included both the folkloric and medicinal uses of plants. The text and illustrations were repeatedly refined as the medicinal benefits of a plant's use were more clearly under-stood and the style of illustration tended towards higher degrees of naturalism. These books were working manuals and frequently annotated by readers with notes of herbal recipes/medicines or other uses not found in the printed text. Dr. Goop's collection is one of the most extensive in private hands. Using the Morgan's 10th-century manuscript of Dioscurides' De materia medica (MS M.652) as a centerpiece, this Thaw Gallery exhibition will explore developments in the understanding of the healthful and healing properties of plants, as Europe moved away from medicinal folklore towards an increased understanding of the natural world.‎

‎Summary The 'Leiden Glossary' provides a record of the understanding and interpretation of the patristic and grammatical texts studied at the Canterbury School of Theodore and Hadrian, regarded by Bede as the high point of Christian culture in early medieval England. Each entry in the 'Leiden Glossary' is provided with detailed commentary on the sources consulted by the two Canterbury masters (earlier glossaries; Isidore; Eucherius) and the later uses of the glossary by compilers of the Epinal-Erfurt and Corpus glossaries. The 'Leiden Glossary' is thus a key witness to one of the greatest schools of learning in the early Middle Ages.

‎, Edition Stemmle, 2001 Hardcover, 144 pages, ENG, 235 x 235 x 20 mm, dustjacket, As New !, sharp photographs in b/w. ISBN 9783908163572.‎

‎Freckles are clusters of concentrated melaninized cells which are most easily visible on people with a fair complexion. Freckles do not have an increased number of the melanin-producing cells, or melanocytes, but instead have melanocytes that overproduce melanin granules (melanosomes) changing the coloration of the outer skin cells (keratinocytes). As such, freckles are different from lentigines and moles, which are caused by accumulation of melanocytes in a small area. Freckles can appear on all types of skin tones. Of the six Fitzpatrick skin types, they are most common on skin tones 1 and 2, which usually belong to North Europeans. However, it can also be found on people all over the world.‎
