‎Tiziano Vecellio (c.1488/90-1576) - known in English simply as Titian - was a remarkably versatile painter, equally comfortable with a wide range of genres and subjects. Unlike many artists from history whose work has been appreciated only after their death, Titian enjoyed fame and success throughout his career, which spanned over seven decades. Based in Venice, Titian received commissions from many local patrons and the Venetian government, as well as many distinguished figures from further afield, such as the Pope, the German emperor and the King of Spain. Titian's contemporary biographer, Giorgio Vasari, praised his skill as a colourist; the artist's careful modelling and depth of colour, shown to especially good effect in mythological works such as 'Bacchus and Ariadne' (1520-3) and 'Tarquin and Lucretia' (1569-71), continue to impress viewers in the twenty-first century.‎

‎Peter Jacobs maakt een nostalgische reis door België in oude reisverhalen Een origineel boek dat doet glimlachen van herkenning of van bevreemdend exotisme Een tijdreis die begint aan de vooravond van de Slag bij Waterloo, dat zou uitgroeien tot dé toeristische attractie van België, tot een reisverslag uit 1914 (!) over de eerste verwoestingen van WO I. Een unieke verzameling fragmenten van grote literaire kleppers als Victor Hugo en Stefan Zweig én vergeten schrijvers als de populaire 'chicklit'- schrijfster Adeline Trafton of de laatste koning van Hawaï. De verhalen verrassen door de visie die ze geven op België: amusant, controversieel, onverwacht lyrisch of heerlijk ironisch. Ze zijn ook vandaag nog opvallend lezenswaardig. Samengesteld en ingeleid door Peter Jacobs en mooi geïllustreerd met authentieke, oude gravures.‎

‎JOZEF PEETERS EN DE STRIJD TEGEN DEN TINGELTANGEL (Inter)nationale netwerk van een Antwerps avant-gardist in de jaren 1920‎

‎Antwerpen, Ludion/ Gallery Van De Velde, 2022 2 Volumes in slipcase, Hardcovers,, 325 x 245 mm, 496 pages; NL edition. met prachtige illustraties. NIEUW! ISBN 9789493039797.‎

‎Dit rijk geïllustreerd naslagwerk over het leven en de strijd van de abstracte kunstenaar Jozef Peeters (1895-1960) biedt een boeiende kijk in de Belgische en Europese avant-garde van de dolle jaren 1920, met Antwerpen als uitvalsbasis. Daar wierp Peeters zich vlak na het einde van de Eerste Wereldoorlog op als de concertmeester van het vooruitstrevendste kunstgebeuren. Hij richtte de kring Moderne Kunst op en organiseerde drie grote congressen van moderne kunst, met schokkende tentoonstellingen. Samen met Michel Seuphor leidde hij tussen 1922 en 1925 het toonaangevende tijdschrift Het Overzicht; later volgde de kunstkrant De Driehoek. Deze cultbladen - met artikels van gerenommeerde auteurs en reproducties van de meest hoogstaande kwaliteit - maakten dat Antwerpen in die tijd een gerespecteerde schakel werd in het Europese raderwerk van de stedelijke avant-garde. De uitgebreide research van auteur Peter J.H. Pauwels belicht Peeters' pioniersrol, als zoekend kunstenaar, en als promotor van het internationaal constructivisme door middel van zijn contacten met tal van gepassioneerde medestrijders in binnen- en buitenland. Zo passeren niet alleen Belgische figuren als Victor Servranckx, Felix De Boeck, Paul van Ostaijen en Marthe Donas de revue, maar ook Piet Mondriaan, Theo en Nelly van Doesburg, Herwarth en Nell Walden, Robert en Sonja Delaunay, Fernand Léger, Lajos Kassak, László Moholy-Nagy, J.J.P. Oud, Marcel Iancu en F.T. Marinetti. Samen geloofden zij - gedurende een korte tijd en met vallen en opstaan - in een universeel herkenbare geometrisch abstracte kunst, die na het debacle van de oorlog de landsgrenzen zou overstijgen om te resulteren in een nieuwe, betere wereld.‎

‎Antwerpen, Ludion/ Gallery Van De Velde, 2022 2 Volumes in slipcase, Hardcovers,, 325 x 245 mm, 496 pages; TEXT ONLY IN DUTCH. edition. met prachtige illustraties. FINE! ISBN 9789493039797.‎

‎This richly illustrated reference work on the life and struggles of the abstract artist Jozef Peeters (1895-1960) offers a fascinating insight into the Belgian and European avant-garde of the mad 1920s, with Antwerp as its base. There, shortly after the end of the First World War, Peeters established himself as the concertmaster of the most progressive art happenings. He founded the Circle of Modern Art and organized three major congresses of modern art, with shocking exhibitions. Together with Michel Seuphor, he led the leading magazine Hetoverzicht between 1922 and 1925; later the art newspaper De Driehoek followed. These cult magazines - with articles by renowned authors and reproductions of the highest quality - made Antwerp at that time a respected link in the European framework of the urban avant-garde. The extensive research of author Peter J.H. Pauwels sheds light on Peeters' pioneering role, as a searching artist and as a promoter of international constructivism through his contacts with many passionate fellow fighters at home and abroad. Not only do Belgian figures such as Victor Servranckx, Felix De Boeck, Paul van Ostaijen and Marthe Donas pass in review, but also Piet Mondriaan, Theo and Nelly van Doesburg, Herwarth and Nell Walden, Robert and Sonja Delaunay, Fernand Léger, Lajos Kassak, László Moholy-Nagy, J.J.P. Oud, Marcel Iancu and F.T. Marinetti. Together they believed - for a short time and through trial and error - in a universally recognizable geometric abstract art, which after the debacle of the war would transcend national borders to result in a new, better world.

‎De ongerepte natuur en het eenvoudige landschap trokken vanaf het einde van de 19e eeuw tal van artiesten naar de boorden van de Leie. De kunst die in de dorpen tussen Gent en Deinze ontstond, vormde reeds het onderwerp van verschillende grote overzichten en diepgaande monografieen. Deze nieuwe publicatie roept aan de hand van korte teksten, citaten, oude foto's, schilderijen en beelden een boeiend, thans bijna verdwenen tijdperk op. Dit rijk geillustreerd boek is tegelijk een hommage aan de meer dan 50 jaar lange inzet van een galerie die voor het eerst deze belangrijkste werken samenbrengt en een licht werpt op haar niet aflatend engagement in de nationale en internationale promotie van de 'kunst van Sint-Martens-Latem'.

‎Porcelain is prized for its vivid whiteness, but it has always posed particular problems for the ceramicist using it. In Contemporary Studio Porcelain, Peter Lane provides a strong history and celebration of the development of porcelain at the turn of the new millennium. He gives particular consideration to the technical achievements, working practices, and aesthetic concerns of ceramicists who work with this most popular medium and its close relative, bone china. The international group of artists featured in this book demonstrates the confidence and versatility found in contemporary porcelain, resulting in a breathtaking look at the exciting and innovative work that is currently being done internationally in this field. Contemporary Studio Porcelain presents a wide diversity of porcelain objects that will both inspire and enthrall. This classic work, now substantially revised, is a must not only for any potter working in porcelain but also for collectors of fine ceramics.‎

‎Western-style furniture was a relatively late arrival in Asia, where climates and lifestyles were markedly different from those in Europe. But colonial incursions and circumstances of history conspired to bring about profound changes, and furniture design in Asia blossomed into a major decorative art. Each of the eight countries covered here ÔÇô China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Tibet and the Philippines ÔÇô developed its own particular designs, creating pieces furniture as works of art. Today these diverse pieces are treasured by collectors worldwide, from Manhattan lofts to Parisian apartments, as well as in the countries they originated.‎

‎Mitte der 1960er-Jahre entdeckten zahlreiche Kunstler Formlosigkeit als Ausgangspunkt fur ihre Materialexperimente. Die Maxime ?form follows material? wurde jedoch nicht nur in der Objektkunst ausgerufen, sondern hatte grossen Einfluss auch auf die Gestaltung von Mobeln, etwa auf Gunnar A. Andersens experimentelle Polyurethansessel oder den beruhmten Sacco. Die umfassende Untersuchung bundelt erstmals die verschiedenen Aspekte und Auspragungen des Formlosen im Mobeldesign und beleuchtet ausfuhrlich die Wechselwirkungen von bildender und angewandter Kunst sowie die sich wandelnden Konzepte des Amorphen in der Moderne bis hin zu den neuesten Spielarten. Die Betrachtung aktueller Gestaltungsansatze, insbesondere der digital entworfenen ?Blobjects?, veranschaulicht, dass Designer Vorstellungen von der ?Guten Form? nach wie vor spielerisch unterlaufen und dabei gerade im Formlosen Chancen fur asthetische Neuerungen erkennen. Die vorgestellten Designer (Auswahl): Gunnar Aagard Andersen, Ron Arad, Bar Knell, Fernando & Humberto Campana, Tom Dixon, Gatti, Paolini & Teodoro, Frank Gehry, Gruppe Brand, Greg Lynn, Gaetano Pesce, Karim Rashid, Tejo Remy, Jerszy Seymour, Robert Stadler, Lothar Windels.‎

‎Tiepolo : Heaven on Earth - Masterpieces in the Wurzburg Palace‎

‎, Prestel 1996, 1996 Hardcover, 144 pages, English, 305 x 250 mm, fine copy, . ISBN 9783791317281.‎

‎On 12 December 1750 the Venetian painter Giambattista Tiepolo arrived in Wurzburg, capital of the small German principality of Franconia. Its ruler, Prince-Bishop Carl Philipp von Greiffenclau, had commissioned him to decorate the Kaisersaal, one of the state rooms in his palace, the Residenz. Later extended to include the decoration of the Residenz's staircase, the commission resulted in a series of frescos that are numbered among the greatest glories of Baroque painting. Created by the last major representative of the Venetian tradition in painting, the frescos in the Wurzburg Residenz are a truly epochal work of art. They form the culmination of a venerable tradition of fresco decoration initiated by Giotto over four hundred years earlier and, in their marriage of mythological and historical subject-matter, constitute a monument to the dying age of absolutism. In his highly readable text Peter O. Kruckmann tells the story of how Tiepolo came to receive the commission, explores in detail the thematic and artistic intricacies of the frescos, and documents their genesis as a continuous process, from the preliminary sketches to the finished works. In examining the relationship between the painted decoration and the architecture of the Residenz, he sheds new light on the place of the frescos in the complex ceremonial rituals of provincial court. During his three-year stay in Wurzburg, Tiepolo, and his son Giandomenico, produced a number of oil paintings for the Prince-Bishop and other German patrons. These works, too, are discussed in this lavishly illustrated volume, which provides layman and expert alike with an informative and visually exciting survey of the masterpieces created in Wurzburg by the man who was probably the greatest painter of the eighteenth century.‎
