‎First printing of Stenquist's landmark work on earth currents, which includes his seminal scientific description of the great storm of May 1921 that has turned out to be one of the most significant reports in the history of geomagnetic storms and space weather. The work is of fundamental importance to extreme weather forecasting and is a classic in the field. ""The most spectacular (and most dangerous) examples of GIC impact were two destructive fires-the first in Sweden around 02:00 GMT on 15 May and the second in the United States around an hour later. The Swedish event occurred in a telephone exchange in the town of Karlstad, 260 km west of Stockholm. This event was widely reported around the world... It was also the subject of contemporary study by David Stenquist, a Swedish scientist and engineer, who had a long interest in what we would now call GIC impacts on telecommunications systems. One of his narrative reports on the event is included in his 1925 memoir on earth currents (Stenquist, 1925), and another is reproduced by Karsberg et al. (1959). They both outline how the operators at Karlstad exchange first experienced problems (equipment anomalies and faint smoke) around 01:00, followed by a period of quiet, before the main fire started around 02:00 leading to extensive equipment damage. Stenquist also highlighted a near-miss incident at Ånge, some 380 km north west of Stockholm, that was simultaneous with the Karlstad fire. This experienced a threat similar to that fire, but where the initial problems were sufficient to trigger preventive measures that avoided major damage. In his later analysis of the Karlstad fire (Albinson, 2018" Engström, 1928" Stenquist, 1925), Stenquist noted that this site was vulnerable to strong GIC, because it was on the 400 km route of the major communications lines between Oslo and Stockholm, and this route was vulnerable because of its east-west orientation. His insights into engineering design of the communications lines enabled him to estimate the geoelectric fields that created the damaging GIC. He showed that fields of at least 6 V/km were required to cause the observed melting of fuses, ""tubes de fusion,"" in copper wires, and that a field of 20 V/km would have caused more damage than observed (melting of fuses in iron wires). As a result he suggested that 10 V/km would be a reasonable estimate of the average geoelectric field in central Sweden at the time of the Karlstad fire."" (Hapgood). ""Over the past decade the public perception of space weather has changed markedly so that it is now considered a major societal risk alongside other natural hazards including pandemic disease, extremes of temperature, coastal and river flooding, earthquakes, and volcanic activity. As a result of this step change in public perception, improved understanding of severe space weather, and its impacts, is now a vital element in the scientific evidence sought by policy-makers responsible for societal resilience. Those policy-makers require information on both the likelihood, and the adverse impacts, of severe space weather, just as they do for other natural hazards. Only then can they integrate space weather into wider plans to ensure societal resilience against the whole range of natural hazards....A key element in this evidence is the likely timelines of extreme space weather events. Such knowledge enables us to build scenarios that give insights into the spatial and temporal distribution of adverse impacts, and into the information that will be available to enable timely decision-making before, during and after an extreme event. They are also vital for exercises to test mitigation plans and to train key personnel in government and industry. Scenarios are also critical inputs for realistic studies on the socio-economic impact of space weather.This study addresses one route to scenario development, namely, a review of previous severe space weather events, and specifically focuses on one outstanding case, the great storm of 13-16 May 1921, and particularly the very intense activity on 14/15 May.""

‎ARCHIDOC 06 Jacques Gillet. Architagogue du fantastique, Maison-sculpture en Belgique par Jacques Gillet. Si lhistoriographie de la production de Jacques Gillet est largement domin e par l?aventure h ro que de la Maison sculpture , elle reste largement lacunaire sur d?autres pans fondamentaux du travail de l?architecte. Certes, l?analyse de la Maison sculpture occupe une place importante dans le livre, mais le projet ditorial port par Andr Rouelle et Xavier Van Rooyen entend aller plus loin et se nourrir de l?ensemble des archives d pos es par Jacques Gillet au GAR. L?analyse de la production de Jacques Gillet, richement illustr e, embrasse tant les premi res r alisations que les concours et projets avort s. Une approche historique d di e la maison sculpture est en outre compl t e par une tude sur les d fis que pose la r habilitation de cette oeuvre singuli re. Pour prendre de la hauteur, une remise en perspective dans le contexte architectural et international de l? poque permet de situer la posture de Jacques Gillet comme praticien mais galement comme p dagogue. Le t moignage est galement un l ment fort qui traverse l?ensemble du livre avec des interventions sensibles de celles et ceux qui ont c toy Jacques Gillet. Jacques Gillet fut galement un transmetteur , un porteur d?id aux qui ont durablement marqu plusieurs figures de l?architecture belge. Le projet donne ainsi la parole ric Furn mont et Bernard Herbecq qui se sont inscrits dans les pas de Jacques Gillet tout en d veloppant leur propre singularit tandis que de courts t moignages de V ronique Gillet et B n dicte Henry apportent un regard sensible et touchant sur Jacques Gillet, l?architagogue du fantastique‎

‎Jean Fouquet's diptych from the collegiate church of Melun is one of the main works the painting of the 15th century and French art in general. The left wing with the donor portrait is since 1896 in Berlin, while the right wing, the Madonna performing wings of the Museum of Fine Arts belongs to Antwerp. Both halves were separated by 1773 and were the last time together in 1937. The Berlin exhibition unites them now again and shows more important works, including the original medallion with Fouquet's self-portrait from the Louvre, an outstanding portrait drawing of his hand as well as selected works by painters like Jan van Eyck and Peter Christ. In the accompanying catalog well-known international researchers highlight different aspects of the work, including his iconography and technique, the person of the founder, Fouquets artistic requirements and more.‎

‎A journey through the oeuvre of photographer Stephan Vanfleteren, with expansive personal reflections and stories from three decades of encounters and photography ?At times I think that Stephan has a clear idea of how to make his photographs work so well. But then there?s this book here, showing us he is constantly, across a wide range of situations, searching for his visual language, for his self, for stories that need to be told, and then the work becomes so exciting again for me, and important and rich, that I want to drown myself in it. A masterful collection.? ? Anton Corbijn, photographerand director ?I am more than a passenger of the past. People sometimes ask me if I look back too much. Of course, I look back, but I also look forward, to the left, to the right, up and down. Far and near. And for the first time I?m also really looking inside.? ? Stephan Vanfleteren Stephan Vanfleteren (1969) is mainly known to the general public for his penetrating black & white portrait photography, but over the past decades his work has ranged to documentary, artistic and personal pictures. From street photography in world cities like New York to the genocide of Ruanda, from storefront fa ades to the mystical landscapes of the Atlantic wall, from still lifes to intense portraits. The iconic images sit side by side with unknown treasures in this heavy tome containing no less than 505 photographs. In the very personal accompanying text, Vanfleteren reflects on how his own work and the photography genre as a whole have evolved in recent decades. You get a close-up look at his intriguing career from the very beginning, when he travelled the world with an appetite for action. He also photographed his home country: all of the headline news stories of the 1990s appeared before his lens. Around the Millennium, Vanfleteren started to focus on that which is disappearing. With painstaking attention to nuance he created a visual archive of his homeland and of his fellow Belgians, in his own inimitable style. In the last few years Vanfleteren has brought the world inside, to his daylight studio, resulting in many encounters and portraits. This book includes two new series ? not previously published ? which were born in the intimacy of his studio: an exploration of the still life and a study of nude photography, both in colour. Stephan Vanfleteren turns fifty this year and he is celebrating with a major retrospective exhibition filling the entire building at Fotomuseum Antwerpen (FOMU, from 25 October 2019 to 1 March 2020) and with this publication. ?I was there, I was present?, says the photographer, who always feels as much a witness as an accomplice. Present is an impressive overview of Vanfleteren?s oeuvre that provides a complete picture of him as a photographer, an artist, and above all a human being who faces life with empathy, wonder, and curiosity. ‎

‎, Tate Publishing, 2020 Hardcover flexi, 298 x 196 mm, 192 pages, 200 colour illustrations, English edition. ISBN 9781849766807.‎

‎Aubrey Beardsley (1872-1898) is best remembered for his powerful illustrations for Salom by Oscar Wilde. Spanning just seven years, his intense, prolific career as a draftsman and illustrator was cut short when he died at the age of 25. His subversive black-and-white drawings and his complex persona became synonymous with decadence: He alighted on the perverse and erotic aspects of life and legend, shocking audiences with his bizarre sense of humor and fascination with the grotesque. His keen observation of his contemporaries makes him of his time, but his distinct style has resonated with subsequent generations. A major influence on the development of Art Nouveau, and on psychedelic pop culture and design in the late 1960s, Beardsley's drawings remain a key reference for many artists today. Here, short essays on aspects of Beardsley's remarkable career complement reproductions of his fascinating work.‎

‎, Mercator/ Mercatorfonds , 2021 HB, 300 x 250 mm, 196 pages, 180 colour illustrations, Texte en Francais. ISBN 9789462302747.‎

‎Francis Bacon est consid r comme un des peintres majeurs du XXe si cle. Une nouvelle exposition de ses tableaux la Royal Academy explore le r le des animaux - commencer par l'animal humain - dans son oeuvre. En 1969, Bacon, qui a souvent peint des chiens et des chevaux, se tourne pour la premi re fois vers la corrida. Dans cette s rie d'oeuvres puissantes, les interactions entre l'homme et la b te s'av rent dangereuses et cruelles, mais aussi d'une intimit d rangeante. Tous deux se contorsionnent dans cette lutte angoiss e o l' rotisme n'est jamais loin. 'La corrida est comme la boxe, a dit Bacon. Un merveilleux ap ritif pour l'amour.' Vingt-deux ans plus tard, un taureau solitaire sera le sujet de son dernier tableau. Dans cet ouvrage fascinant, qui apporte un compl ment significatif la litt rature sur Bacon, des sp cialistes d taillent son approche des animaux et identifient ses diverses sources d'inspiration, dont la litt rature surr aliste et les photographies d'Eadweard Muybridge. Selon eux, en montrant des animaux dans un tat de vuln rabilit , de col re ou de mal- tre, Bacon cherchait p n trer la condition humaine. Ce catalogue d'exposition important d voile ce que les repr sentations animali res de Francis Bacon r v lent sur l'artiste - et la condition humaine.

‎FRANCIS BACON Mens en Beest‎

‎, Mercator/ Mercatorfonds , 2021 HB, 300 x 250 mm, 196 pages, 180 colour illustrations, Nederlandstalige uitgave ISBN 9789462302754.‎

‎Dit boek focust op de rol van dieren in het werk van Francis Bacon (1909-1992). Bacon schilderde vaak honden en paarden, en in 1969 voor het eerst een stierengevecht, een interactie tussen mens en dier die gevaarlijk en wreed is, maar ook verontrustend intiem. In deze publicatie identificeren deskundige auteurs Bacons inspiratiebronnen en bespreken ze zijn benadering van dieren in het onderzoek dat hij voerde naar de condition humaine. Tentoonstelling: Royal Academy, London: Jan- April 2021 Explore Francis Bacon's visceral paintings, where the line between human and animal is constantly blurred, reminding us that our primal instincts lie just below the surface. Irish-born artist Francis Bacon was the horse-breeder's son who became one of the most important painters of the 20th century. An openly gay man at a time when homosexuality was illegal, he was banished from his conservative family home by his father at 16. After that, he drifted through Berlin and Paris before establishing himself in London, with his formative years running parallel with some of the 20th century's most profoundly disturbing events. This powerful exhibition will focus on Bacon's unerring fascination with animals: how it both shaped his approach to the human body and distorted it; how, caught at the most extreme moments of existence, his figures are barely recognisable as either human or beast. It also explores how Bacon was mesmerised by animal movement, observing animals in the wild during trips to South Africa; filling his studio with wildlife books, and constantly referring to Eadweard Muybridge's 19th-century photographs of humans and animals in motion. Whether baboons or bulls, dogs or birds of prey, Bacon felt he could get closer to understanding the true nature of humankind by watching the uninhibited behaviour of animals. Spanning Bacon's 50-year career, highlights include some of Bacon's earliest works and his last-ever painting, alongside a trio of bullfight paintings which will be exhibited together for the first time. Seen together, these raw expressions of anxiety and instinct - both animal and human - feel poignantly relevant today. Exposition au Royal Academy, Londres, 22 janvier - 12 avril 2021‎
