Pierre Cardin : Making Fashion Modern : Pr face : Jean Paul Gaultier
, Flammarion, 2022 Hardcover, 256 pages, ENG, 280 x 205 mm, Nouveau, images / illustrations in colour / b/w. ISBN 9782080281890.
Longtime collaborators of Pierre Cardin, Jean-Pascal Hesse and Pierre Pelegry share their intimate knowledge of the fashion designer's early career in Paris. They analyze the influences that inspired him to conceive not only some of the most iconic haute couture creations of the 1950s and 1960s, but also the space-ageinflected Cosmocorps collection, which presciently explored gender fluidity. By drawing upon sources that have been assembled over more than two decades?from Cardin's personal recollections to many exclusive photographs by Yoshi Takata and Roland de Vassal'this book pays tribute to the modernity of a visionary creator who revolutionized fashion on a global scale.

Arabische cocktail : van revolutie tot contrarevolutie
, Van Halewyck , 2013 Softcover, 428 pagina's, NL, 230 x 150 mm, als nieuw !, . ISBN 9789461311429.
De westerse media noemden het hoopvol 'de Arabische Lente', want eindelijk ging het met het Midden-Oosten de goede kant uit. De regio stond op de drempel van de democratie en zou het extremisme goeddeels naar de geschiedenisboeken verbannen. Maar niet iedereen was overtuigd van de goede afloop. Alleen was die visie taboe en bleven we langer geloven in het sprookje dan goed was. Gebeurtenissen werden verzwegen of opgeklopt, gissingen deden zich voor als de waarheid. Een van die fata morgana's, de opstand van het geweldloze volk tegen de brutale verdrukker, vervaagde langzaam maar zeker. De conclusie was ontnuchterend. In de lijn van De Arabische revolutie en van ruim een kwarteeuw verslaggeving over deze roerige regio, rapporteert Jef Lambrecht als een van de zeer weinigen met gepaste afstandelijkheid en onpartijdigheid over de Arabische cocktail. Jef Lambrecht (1948) was van 1978 tot 2010 journalist bij de VRT-radio, gespecialiseerd in het Midden-Oosten. Hij publiceerde eerder IX-XI. Hoe 11 september mogelijk werd (2002), De Zwarte Wieg. Irak, nazi's en neoconservatieven (2003), De heilige wereldoorlog. Halfweg de kruistocht tegen het moslimterrorisme (2009). De Arabische cocktail is daar het vervolg op.

New African Fashion,
UK, Prestel, 2011 Hardback, 270x195mm, 288p, 250 colour illustrations. English edition. ISBN 9783791346960.
Ever since the late 1960s when Yves Saint Laurent and Paco Rabanne presented African-inspired collections, the textiles, details, and colors of Africa have moved into the realm of high fashion. In the past few years, young designers from the continent itself have emerged as people to watch in the fashion world. Helen Jennings, editor of award-winning ARISE magazine, offers in this book a brief history of African fashion, beauty and style, follows its influence on modern designers, and spotlights the best designers, photographers, and models from across the continent and the African diaspora. Profiling popular lines such as Duro Olowu, Jewel by Lisa, Black Coffee, and Eric Raisina, Jennings explores the myriad reasons why African fashion is having its moment in the sun. She shows how designers are looking beyond cliches of the African aesthetic by embracing both traditional and contemporary fabrics and garments, and how the passion for ethically and environmentally conscious clothing is fueling this trend. As colorful and exciting as the fashions it features, this volume will appeal to anyone interested in following the world's most exciting new fashion development.
drei K rper des Buddha (trikaya) : Das dritte Kapitel der uigurischen Fassung des Goldglanz-Sutras (Altun Yaruk Sudur) eingeleitet, nach den Handschriften herausgegeben, bersetzt und kommentiert
, Brepols, 2001 Hardcover, 230 seiten , Deutsch, 300 x 220 mm, Neu, illustrationen in s/w. ISBN 9782503513140.
The doctrine of the Three Bodies of a Buddha (Body of the Law, Body of Enjoyment and Transformation Body) is doubtless one of the principal tenets of Mahayana Buddhism. Two Chinese versions of the Sutra of Golden Light deal with this important conception in detail whereas the extant Sanskrit text does not contain this section. One of these translations which was carried out by the famous Buddhist scholar Yijing was again translated into Uygur and is well-known under the title Altun Yaruk Sudur. With regard to the number of extant copies the Altun Yaruk Sudur is the most important work in Uygur Buddhism. This translation which is attributed to ?i?ko ? li Tutu? contains some longer glosses that are not to be found in any other version of the Sutra and display a special development of the doctrine of the Three Bodies. In this study the chapter in question is edited by making use of the famous manuscript which is housed in St. Petersburg in consideration of the variants found in the fragments of the Berlin Turfan Collection. The Berlin fragments are edited seperately as a whole in transcription and transliteration. A fresh translation is confronted with the original Uygur text. An extensive commentary and an Uygur-Chinese-Tibetan-Mongolian-German glossary complete the edition. In the introduction questions of textual tradition, parallels in other works and the problem of different translations into Uygur are discussed in detail.
Henri Estienne : On Books
, LYSA Publishers, 2022 Hardcover, 488 pages, English & Latin, NEW, 240 x 170 mm, rounded spine, sewn, dust jacket, reading ribbon. ISBN 9789464447675.
Henri II Estienne (1531-98) was the most outstanding member of his family?s long-lived publishing dynasty. He continued the work of his father, Robert, by publishing many unedited Greek texts and completing the Thesaurus linguae Graecae (1572), an expensive venture from which his business never fully recovered. His versatility? as publisher, scholar, corrector, lexicographer and poet ? can be seen in the paratextual material in his many editions, and in his own original works. This anthology presents a sample from Henri Estienne?s writings across his career and from different genres. These range from letters, to poetry, to essays, to his Encomium of the Frankfurt Fair. They reveal him as a remarkable scholar with an astonishing grasp of Latin and Greek literature, while highlighting also his problems both as a publisher and as a scholar. Estienne?s elaborate essays on the ancient Greek historians Xenophon and Herodotus use ancient examples to support contemporary arguments. His verses preserve a strong sense of the life of a scholar turned businessman, both at work and at play. In remarkably fluid Latin, Estienne reveals in these writings his aspiration to be worthy of his father?s legacy, his affection for family and friends, his humour, and his gripes with other scholars and publishers.

Sale of the Late King's Goods : Charles I and his Art Collection
, Pan Macmillan, 2006 Bound cover, 436 pages, ENG, 240 x 160 mm, in very good condition, with illustrations in colours. ISBN 9781405041522.
So wonderful and glorious a collection, that the like will never again be met with.' This is how one awed and wistful observer described King Charles' artworks. As an acquirer of paintings by Europe's great masters and patron of Rubens and Van Dyck, Charles's extravagance in amassing his collection only exacerbated the parliamentary disapproval that led to civil war and the King's own execution. After his death, one of the Commonwealth's first decrees was to sell off his treasures to raise money for the new regime. After the Restoration, one of Charles II's first resolutions was to get the collection back.

Witchcraft. : The Library of Esoterica Part Three

Initiating readers in the fascinating and complex history of witchcraft, from the goddess mythologies of ancient cultures to the contemporary embrace of the craft by modern artists and activists, this expansive tome conjures up a breathtaking overview of an age-old tradition. Rooted in legend, folklore, and myth, the archetype of the witch has evolved from the tales of Odysseus and Circe, the Celtic seductress Cerridwen, and the myth of Hecate, fierce ruler of the moonlit night. In Witchcraft we survey her many incarnations since, as she shape-shifts through the centuries, alternately transforming into mother, nymph, and crone-seductress and destroyer. Edited by Jessica Hundley, and co-edited by author, scholar, and practitioner Pam Grossman, this enthralling visual chronicle is the first of its kind, a deep dive into the complex symbologies behind witchcraft traditions, as explored through the history of art itself. The witch has played muse to great artists throughout time, from the dark seductions of Francisco Jose de Goya and Albrecht Durer to the elegant paean to the magickal feminine as re-imagined by the Surrealist circle of Remedios Varo, Leonora Carrington, and Leonor Fini. The witch has spellbound through folktales and dramatic literature as well, from the poison apples of The Brothers Grimm, to the Weird Sisters gathered at their black cauldron in Shakespeare's Macbeth, to L. Frank Baum's iconic Wicked Witch of the West, cackling over the fate of Dorothy. Throughout this entrancing visual voyage, we'll also bear witness to the witch as she endures persecution and evolves into empowerment, a contemporary symbol of bold defiance and potent nonconformity. Featuring enlightening essays by modern practitioners like Kristen J. Sollee and Judika Illes, as well interviews with authors and scholars such as Madeline Miller and Juliet Diaz, Witchcraft includes a vast range of cultural traditions that embrace magick as spiritual exploration and creative catharsis. About the series The Library of Esoterica explores how centuries of artists have given form to mysticism, translating the arcane and the obscure into enduring, visionary works of art. Each subject is showcased through both modern and archival imagery culled from private collectors, libraries, and museums around the globe. The result forms an inclusive visual history, a study of our primal pull to dream and nightmare, and the creative ways we strive to connect to the divine.

THE CIRCUS WE ARE
, Stichting Kunstboek 2022, 2022 Paperback, 112 pages, 80 Illustrations en couleur 270 x 210 mm, Texte en Francais + NL, Nieuw , met foto's / illustraties in kleur en z/w, . ISBN 9789058566881.
Ter gelegenheid van Namur en mai vinden in Namen drie prestigieuze tentoonstellingen plaats in de Delta, het Ropsmuseum en het TreM.a. De wereld van het circus wordt er verkend van de middeleeuwen tot nu, met speciale aandacht voor internationale hedendaagse kunstenaars, van wie sommigen speciaal voor de gelegenheid gecre erde werken zullen presenteren. Ik zal een acrobaat zijn en bij de clowns leven! Moge de nachtwind de tent waar ik zal bivakkeren, geselen, maar moge het hemd waarin ik bevries van paars en glitter zijn! Van tijd tot tijd droomde F licien Rops ervan zijn artistieke carri re op te geven om in een woonwagen te gaan wonen in het gezelschap van circusartiesten. Hij roept deze wereld op in verschillende tekeningen en gravures. Net als hij hebben andere kunstenaars deze inspirerende, kleurrijke en soms vreemde wereld ge llustreerd: Gustave Dor , Camille Van Camp, Th o Van Rysselberghe, Henri de Groux, enz. De tentoonstelling geeft aan de hand van werken, foto's en documenten een overzicht van het soms moeilijke bestaan van deze artiesten die het publiek van de 19de eeuw lieten dromen en huiveren. // Trois expositions prestigieuses se d rouleront aux Delta, mus e Rops et TreM.a. Le monde du cirque y sera abord du moyen- ge nos jours, en faisant la part belle aux artistes internationaux contemporains dont certains pr senteront des oeuvres cr es sp cialement pour l'occasion. "Je vais me faire Saltimbanque Et vivre avec les baladins ! Que la bise des nuits flagelle La tente o j'irai bivouaquant Mais que le maillot o je g le Soit fait de pourpre & de clinquant!" F licien Rops r ve de temps autre d'abandonner sa carri re artistique pour vivre dans une roulotte en compagnie des gens du spectacle. Il voque cet univers dans plusieurs dessins et gravures : com dien, trap ziste, acrobate au repos dans les coulisses. D'autres artistes ont comme lui illustr cet univers inspirant, color et pourtant parfois bien d soeuvr : Gustave Dor , Camille Van Camp, Th o Van Rysselberghe, Henri de Groux, etc. L'exposition retrace avec des oeuvres, des photographies et des documents, le quotidien parfois difficile de ces acteurs qui ont fait r ver ou fr mir le public du 19 me si cle.
