‎CHRISTOPHE GEVERS, More than a designer, Christophe Gevers is a sculptor. He sculpts shapes, volumes, materials, and he assembles them until they become furniture and spaces. ? Christophe Gevers the eponymous monograph devoted to the creative universe of Christophe Gevers, offers a unique look at the known and lesser-known worlds of one of the greatest interior designers and Belgian furniture creators of the second half of the twentieth century. The book, which brings Christophe Gevers out of the shadows, is divided into five main sections: Houses; The master and his students; Interiors; The restaurants; The designer ?furniture, lighting and objects. The texts are essentially based on testimonies from relatives, clients, professionals, collaborators and former students. From 1959 to 1993 Christophe Gevers left indeed his atypical mark on thirty-three classes at the famous La Cambre art school, within the Mobilier & Agencement workshop. A brutalist before his time, Gevers was uncompromising about the quality of the materials he chose so that they would last and embellish over time. ‎

‎Oxford History of Classical Art‎

‎, Oxford University Press, 1993 Hardcover, 406 pages, ENG, 285 x 225 x 35 mm, dustjacket, black cover with golden imprint, illustrated in colour / b/w, in very good condition, . ISBN 9780198143864.‎

‎Lying at the heart of the Western classical tradition, the rich legacy of the arts of ancient Greece and Rome continues to provide inspiration and guidance to artists and art lovers everywhere. Lavishly illustrated and masterfully prepared under the editorship of John Boardman, one of the world's preeminent classicists, The Oxford History of Classical Art offers readers the definitive companion to the artistic and architectural achievements of the Greco-Roman world, from the rise of the Greek city-states to the fall of the Roman Empire. Written by Boardman and a team of distinguished experts, this sumptuous volume presents the full pageantry and glory of the classical world, tracing the origins and evolution of classical art as it gradually moved from the art of individuals and small communities to the art of a world power. Particular attention is paid throughout to the splendor and quality of the arts themselves, aptly represented in 528 stunningly beautiful black and white and full-color plates. From the stiffly representational style of early antiquity and the oriental influence of Egypt and Mesopotamia to the full flowering of the Greece's Golden Age, text and illustrations work together to enhance our appreciation of the fascinating process through which humanity itself became the central focus of art, and artists and artisans sought for the first time not just to imitate the natural world, but to actually improve on nature through perfection of form and composition. Turning to Rome, the contributors dramatically illustrate that Roman art was far more than a mere pastiche of Greek influences. They take an in-depth look at the Romans' profound contributions to architecture, as they used their technical progress with arch, vault, and the use of brick and concrete, to create new attitudes to the use of space and light and principles of design which went far beyond the more limited ambitions of the Greek world. Destined to become the definitive sourcebook in its field, The Oxford History of Classical Art is indispensable for anyone intrigued by the timeless heritage of the ancient world, as well as for artists and students of art and art history.‎

‎A major account of Renaissance portraiture by one of the twentieth century's most eminent art historians The Portrait in the Renaissance provides an unprecedented look at two centuries of experiment in portraiture during the Renaissance. In this compelling book, John Pope-Hennessy shows how the Renaissance cult of individuality brought with it a demand that the features of the individual be perpetuated. This concept was first manifested in the portraits that fill the great Florentine fresco cycles and led, later in the fifteenth century, to the creation of the independent portrait by such artists as Botticelli, Antonio Pollaiuolo, Giovanni Bellini, and Antonello da Messina. Pope-Hennessy goes on to describe the process by which Titian and the great artists of the High Renaissance transformed the portrait from a record of appearance into an analysis of character.‎

‎Piet Stockmans verhalen achter de scherven‎

‎, Hopper & Fuchs, 2025 Softcover, 203 pag 24x 17cm afbeedingen.‎

‎Piet Stockmans ( 1940) is een toonaangevende Belgische kunstenaar die internationale erkenning geniet voor zijn vernieuwend werk in porselein. In zes decennia bouwde Stockmans een duizelingwekkend oeuvre op, stichtte Studio Pieter Stockmans, gaf les, ontving prestigieuze prijzen, ontwierp iconische serviezen en brak potten met zijn experimentele porseleinkunst. Piet Stockmans: Verhalen achter de scherven is geen klassieke biografie, maar een verzameling van verhalen die even coherent als incoherent zijn. Timmermans: ?Piets vertellingen lezen als een porseleinen vaas die in grote en kleine scherven uiteenvalt. Het geeft je een idee van hoe de vaas was. Zo schetst dit boek een intrigerend beeld van Pieter Stockmans als kunstenaar en als mens, maar het is niet compleet. Het kan nooit compleet zijn. Dat maakt het zo menselijk en mooi.? Het resultaat is een scherp, intiem en integer portret van de kunstenaar, rijkelijk ge llustreerd met archiefbeelden en foto?s die Timmermans maakte in zijn vertrouwde omgeving.‎
