Young Designers Americas
Designers in The Americas - including North, South and Central America - are as diverse as the cultures within which they work. In fact, it is difficult to talk about them as one cohesive group; their passions, design strategies, and formal outcomes cannot be summed up in a simple mission statement, nor should they be. This book presents 61 projects from the Young Designers Americas to celebrate the diversity of the ideas and the designers of the American countries.

Writings on Art
"Rothko's multiform and abstract expressionist paintings make him one of the most important artists of the 20th century. Gathering all of the artist's writings held in public collections as well as texts in Rothko's descendants' hands, this book brings to light many of his theoretical stances, practical considerations and personal revelations. Arranged chronologically from 1934, the year after his first solo show, to 1969, the year before his suicide, the approximately 100 texts consist of letters to curators and to artists like Barnett Newman, Herbert Ferber and Robert Motherwell; notes about his approach to the teaching of art; and writings that explore art as a means of communication. Editor Lopez-Remiro's introduction contextualizes the writings and doubles as a handy chronology of Rothko's life and career. As he notes, these texts by the renowned abstract expressionist "form a sort of intellectual and emotional self-portrait of Mark Rothko." This book will change the way...

According to legend, Mars is said to have fathered the twins Romulus and Remus. Rome owed her rise to the god of war. The small community on the Tiber sought world domination and eliminated her enemies one by one. The Roman people were amazed by the artworks and treasures of the conquered peoples as they were paraded through the city in triumphal procession: royal tableware, precious jewellery, famous paintings as well as statues of marble and bronze were carried through the streets and went on to adorn the temples, palaces and private houses of Rome. Roman art reflected the growth in the power of the state. From modest republican beginnings, it rose to attain imperial grandeur. Издание на английском языке. Формат: 18,5 см х 23 см.
Persistence/Transformation: Text as Image in the Art of Xu Bing
The calligrapher and book artist Xu Bing has been called the most innovative Chinese artist of our time. As a citizen of both China and the United States and the first Asian-American artist to win the prestigious MacArthur Foundation "genius award," Xu Bing has fascinated and challenged audiences around the world with his imaginative textual art. From his 4,000 unreadable Chinese-looking characters, which unite Asian and Western audiences alike in an egalitarianism of induced illiteracy, to his invention of a "square words" language that makes "Chinese" readable by anyone at all, Xu Bing's use of language is at once artistically brilliant, highly entertaining, and profoundly subversive--a sharp-witted, masterly word-play that, in his own words, "strikes at the very essence of culture." In exhibitions on four continents, Xu Bing's printed art, mixed-media installations, and performance pieces--from books and calligraphic sculptures to inscribed pigs--have fascinated...
