Zustand: neu. OBrosch. (laminiert), 165 Seiten mit zahlr. Abb., 8° (16,5 x 23 cm), neu. || Paperback, 165 pp. with illustrations, 8vo, brand-new copy. In this book of essays, noted architectural historian Christopher Long examines some of the many influences that shaped the work of the great architect Adolf Loos. Long's finely tuned essays are exploratory journeys - brief excursions into Loos's rich and complex intellectual world. Drawing from his detailed study of historical sources, Long presents new findings and sets the record straight, correcting errors and assumptions that have long been accepted as fact. He is deeply interested in Loos as an architect, but he is even more drawn to his profound and unique mind. Loos, as Long writes, saw that "the problem of modernism was not the problem of style, but the problem of understanding how the world was changing." Language: ENGLISH Book Language/s: English.…

first edition, published on the occassion of the exhibition "Czech Glass, Quo Vadis?!" at The Venice Glass Week, Venice, 4-12 September 2021; OBrosch., [168] pp. with many illustrations, 4° (22 x 22 cm), brand-new copy "Czech Glass, Quo Vadis ?! is a kind of reflection on the paths that Czech studio work takes in glass art today, 60 years after its phenomenal success at EXPO 58 in Brussels. My intention was to present the most diverse mosaic of approaches to glass, to show how glass intervenes in other areas of art, and to demonstrate the possibilities of its connection with non-traditional materials. The catalogue is conceived as a book of professional and life stories of individual authors rather than as an expert's publication. In it, I follow their professional line, but also the human level. I point out their individuality, exceptionality, the ability to be different, to find their own way, to cope with difficult situations and to persevere when everything literally and figuratively is splintered. The mosaic of presented profiles of authors became a story in itself." Mária Gálová Book Language/s: English, Czech.…

first edition; hardback, 123 pp., abundantly illustarted, 4to (28,5 x 21 cm), brand-new copy. "The book presents a selection of the latest works by Erika Bornová, one of today's most distinctive artists and a teller of forceful and multifaceted stories. Her sculptural cycle dedicated to Alma Mahler and her men, her captivating acrylic self-portraits, her imaginative drawings of Plants or Aquatic Creatures - they all reflect, with a sense of hyperbole, the banality of life. Working with her distinctive passion, Bornová attempts to untangle the complex web of people's imagination and dreams while engaging in a serious exploration of our complicated relationship to the world, to others, to ourselves, and to nature. With expert texts on her work by Martina Pachmanová and Otta M. Urban." Book Language/s: English, Czech.…

Zustand: neu. OBrosch., 265 Seiten mit Faksimile-Abb., 4° (16 x 24 cm), neu. || paperback, 265 pp. with images, 4to, brand-new copy. "Reflections on the Art of Our Time Reflections on the Art of Our Time is a previously unpublished analysis of cultural developments by Josef Frank (1885-1967) since the turn of the century. Frank believed that modern art and design had fallen victim to totalitarian and dictatorial currents in Europe, culminating in World War II. He also noted that the same disturbing trends were spreading to the United States, where he was then living in exile, teaching, and writing. Frank's "Letter to the Editor" on Piet Mondrian, written on the occasion of his major retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art, which is also included in this work, illustrates Frank's concerns about the development of contemporary modernism."

Zustand: neu. OKart., [216] unpaginierte Seiten mit 100 farbigen Reproduktionen, gr.-4° (24,5 x 28 cm), neu, originalverpackt. || Original hardback, cardboard binding, [216] unpaginated pages with 100 colour reproductions, large 4° (24,5 x 28 cm), brand-new, original wrapping. "Tomas Rajlich is internationally recognized as a major figure in European painting. His monochromatic canvases based on the Minimalist grid are the result of meticulous research on the fundamental elements of painting. In the 100 small-scale paintings brought together in this booklet, he explores the combination of the impersonal, the gestural and the creative force of light; they are variations on the intensity, luminosity and facture of the paint, while clearly remaining a factual painting. Emerging in the early 1970s, he is often associated with Minimalism and Fundamental Painting - a term coined by the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam in 1975. The current includes Robert Ryman, Robert Mangold, Agnes Martin, and the early years of Brice Marden and Gerhard Richter. An artist of uncompromising integrity, he maintains a position as one of the most significant living postwar and contemporary painters of his generation. His works have been the subject of major retrospectives and included in the collections of renowned museums worldwide, such as the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, and the Museum of Modern Art, New York."
