Sargent The Masterworks
, Rizzoli, 2018 Hardcover, linen binding with dustjacket, 224 pages, 28.5 x 25 cm, richly illustrated, EN. *NEW. ISBN 9780847862399.
An ideal introduction to the painter s work, Sargent: The Masterworks features 100 of his most beloved paintings. Illustrating all aspects of his diverse oeuvre portraits, landscapes, mural commissions in oil and watercolour, this handsome new book includes works from both private and public collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art s infamous Madame X. Author Stephanie L. Herdrich draws on a wealth of new research to provide both an essential overview and a more nuanced understanding of the great American painter. Richly illustrated, the book s three chapters cover the artist s career from his childhood and early years in Paris, to his mid-career portraits made in England and United States, and his later years painting out of doors. An illustrated chronology contains fascinating details and archival imagery about the artist s life. Sargent s cosmopolitan upbringing and education made him perfectly suited to capture the upwardly mobile bourgeoisie and aristocrats of his era, creating sensual portraits that depict his sitters with startling vibrancy. Though he achieved tremendous success in portraiture, Sargent focused on painting outdoors after 1900, achieving the most brilliant and personal images of his career. One of the greatest portraitists and watercolourists of his time, Sargent remains one of the most well-known and well-loved of all American artists.

Sargent and Paris
New York, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2025 Hardcover, 256 pages, 8'' x 11 1/2'' , EN, Illustrated. *New. ISBN 9781588397959.
In 1874, eighteen-year-old American artist John Singer Sargent went to Paris to become a painter. Ten years later, he would become an art-world sensation when he sparked controversy with his scandalous portrait Madame X at the 1884 Salon. Sargent and Paris focuses on this decisive early decade in the artist?s career, when he first achieved recognition for ambitious portraits and bold canvases that pushed the boundaries of convention. Eight incisive essays by the world's foremost Sargent scholars explore his life in Paris?then the epicenter of the cultural world?and the cosmopolitan circle of artists, writers, and cultivated patrons that nurtured his career and helped forge his artistic identity. Authors highlight the painter's connections to giants of the Parisian art scene as well as the influential patrons who were key to Sargent?s progression as an artist. Presented alongside lavish images of more than a hundred paintings and works on paper?brought together from public and private collections throughout the United States and Europe?this publication offers an intimate look at the roots of Sargent's signature, breathtaking style and his indelible experiences as a young artist in the French capital. Stephanie L. Herdrich is Alice Pratt Brown Curator of American Painting and Drawing, The American Wing, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.

Met de reeks Focus architectuurarchieven plaatst het CVAa archieven van Vlaamse architecten in de kijker. nnDe architectuur van de relatief onbekende architect Isia Isgour (1913-1967) is beeldbepalend in de Limburgse mijnstreek waar hij zowel woningbouw, scholen, sociale centra en andere collectieve gebouwen die de naoorlogse welvaartmaatschappij typeren, realiseerde. Zijn oeuvre in Brussel illustreert de enorme dynamiek van de bouwsector in de jaren 1950 en 1960 die het Vlaamse en Brusselse landschap ingrijpend tekenden.nnHet rijk ge?llustreerde boek geeft een overzicht van Isgours oeuvre met projectbeschrijvingen en referenties naar archiefmateriaal.

Stephan Vanfleteren's photographic quest for the many faces of the sea 'The sea never makes a fuss. You don?t have to explain yourself or be polite. What does she care what you think of her or what you make of her. When you come or where you enter her. I capture, interpret, sublimate, abstract. I show everything, I show nothing.' ? Stephan Vanfleteren In Transcripts of a Sea, the internationally renowned photographer Stephan Vanfleteren (b. 1969) shares the enchantment that has driven him to the sea over the past five years. He analyses the sea, in all her various shapes and ever-changing light, with an obsession bordering on the dangerous, and with a fluid longing. Stormy, mirror-like, misty, thunderous, the surface deceptively calm or like a wildly-thumping washing-machine drum: the photographer does not observe it from the beach or from a boat but opts for a wet confrontation by literally immersing himself in the sea. 136 extraordinary images with texts by Stephan Vanfleteren, Johan De Smet and Manfred Sellink. Published to accompany the eponymous exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts in Ghent (MSK) from 20 September 2025 to 4 January 2026.

La qu te photographique de Stephan Vanfleteren pour les diff rentes formes de la mer La mer ne fait jamais la difficile. On n?a pas besoin de se justifier ni d? tre poli. Elle se moque de ce que vous pensez d?elle et de ce que vous faites d?elle. Du moment o vous venez et o vous la p n trez. Moi je capte, j?interpr te, je sublime, j?abstrais. Je montre tout, je ne montre rien. ? Stephan Vanfleteren Dans Transcripts of a Sea, Stephan Vanfleteren (1969), le photographe de renomm e internationale, partage la fascination qui l?a pouss vers la mer au cours des cinq derni res ann es. M lant obsession dangereuse et d sir fluide, il analyse la mer dans tous ses tats et conditions de luminosit . Temp tueuse, lisse comme un miroir, brumeuse, orageuse, faussement calme ou aussi agit e qu?un tambour de machine laver : le photographe ne contemple pas la mer depuis la plage ou un bateau, mais opte pour la confrontation humide en allant litt ralement dans l?eau.

Stephan Vanfleterens fotografische queeste naar de verschillende gedaanten van de zee ?De zee doet nooit moeilijk. Je hoeft je niet te verantwoorden of beleefd te zijn. Wat kan het haar schelen wat je van haar denkt en wat je van haar maakt, wanneer je komt en waar je haar binnendringt. Ik capteer, interpreteer, sublimeer, abstraheer. Ik toon alles, ik toon niets.? ? Stephan Vanfleteren Voor het eerst deelt de internationaal gerenommeerde fotograaf Stephan Vanfleteren (1969) de betovering die hem de afgelopen vijf jaar naar zee heeft gedreven. Hij analyseert vanuit een gevaarlijke obsessie en met een vloeibaar verlangen de zee in al haar gestalten en lichtomstandigheden. Hij speurt naar plaatsen waar golven en deiningen zich als onvoorspelbare wonderen vertonen. Stormachtig, spiegelglad, mistig, onweerachtig, verraderlijk rustig water of een op hol geslagen wastrommel: de fotograaf aanschouwt het zee-oppervlak niet vanaf het strand maar kiest voor een rechtstreekse confrontatie door letterlijk in zee te gaan. Met 136 indrukwekkende beelden en met teksten van Stephan Vanfleteren, Johan De Smet en Manfred Sellink. Publicatie bij de gelijknamige tentoonstelling in het Museum voor Schone Kunsten (MSK) Gent van 20 september 2025 tot 4 januari 2026.

AUBREY BEARDSLEY.
, 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.

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 Man and beast.
, Mercator/ Mercatorfonds , 2021 HB, 300 x 250 mm, 196 pages, 180 colour illustrations, English edition *new ISBN 9781912520558.
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

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.

Dormition and Assumption of the Virgin Mary
, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, xii + 356 pages, Size:120 x 190 mm, Illustrations:1 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503606163.
Summary This volume includes eight new translations of early Christian narratives about the end of the Virgin Mary's life, that is, her Dormition and Assumption. Translated from Greek, Latin, Syriac, Ethiopic, Georgian, and Christian Palestinian Aramaic, each of these texts is either translated into a modern language for the first time, or appears in a version that has not previously been published. The texts represent a broad range of the highly diverse early Christian memories of Mary's departure from this world. Likewise, the texts themselves often disclose a range of theological diversity within the early Christian tradition even beyond what scholars have thus far recognized. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 1. The Book of Mary's Repose 2. The Six Books Apocryphon 3. The Greek Revision of the Book of Mary's Repose 4. The Latin Revision of the Book of Mary's Repose 5. The Latin Transitus Mariae 6. An Early Dormition Fragment in Old Georgian 7. A Liturgical Apocryphon from Jeremiah for the Dormition of the Virgin 8. The Homily on the Dormition Attributed to Basil of Caesarea Bibliography

Belgicum Stephan Vanfleteren
, Hannibal, 2019 Hardcover, 212pp. tweede druk. nieuw. ISBN 9789492081834.
Belgicum is een fotoproject over Belgie. Het is geen objectieve weerspiegeling van een land maar een subjectief fotodocument in zwart-wit. Een ontdekkingstocht door een klein landje in het centrum van Europa tijdens de eeuwwisseling. Meer dan vijftien jaar heeft Stephan Vanfleteren door het territorium ?Belgicum? geslenterd, verdwaald en gejaagd door ontroering en liefde voor zijn moederland. Het werd een tocht door een land met littekens, op zoek naar een onvindbare identiteit maar met de melancholische ziel van een oude natie.
