Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. For most people, the name Edvard Munch (1863 - 1944) is synonymous with his iconic painting The Scream (1893). Yet beyond this justly famous masterpiece, the prolific Norwegian artist was also a major figure in the development of 20th-century painting. The themes of desolation and despair in his most popular work resonated with those coming to terms with modernity and acted as an influential precursor to the Expressionist movement in Europe. This concise and inviting book offers a perfect introduction to Munch's work, including his etchings, woodcuts, lithographs, and set designs. It also details his tragic childhood, his travels in Europe during the emergence of Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, and his circle of friends. Best known as the artist behind one of the most iconic and recognised images in the world, "The Scream" (1893), Norwegian painter Edvard Munch (1863-1944) is a key figure in the development of painting in the twentieth century. This title presents Munch's life and work. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Examines the development of pop art from its roots to its rise in popularity, and discusses how it was once considered outside the limits of art but is now celebrated in the Western world. Mass culture, popular taste, and kitsch-previously considered outside the limits of fine art-were the inspiration for and provocative themes of Pop Art, a movement that enjoyed great prominence in the late 1950s and 1960s. Rejecting the idea that art and life should be separated, artists in both the United States and Britain-among them Roy Lichtenstein, James Rosenquist, Andy Warhol, Peter Blake, and Richard Hamilton-used mass-produced objects and photographic images to make a blatant connection between art and the postwar world of consumerism. This study follows the development of Pop, from its roots in the irreverence of Dada and Surrealism, to its rise in popularity as an art form that celebrated the glamour and hedonism of the newly commercialized Western world, while acknowledging its superficiality and transience.

This discussion between Turner Prize-winner Grayson Perry, Orange Prize -winner Lionel Shriver, and British journalist Mark Lawson considers the effect prizes have on those short-listed and on the winners, for whom it can be both a catalyst to international success and a hindrance to creativity. In addition, a series of artists' statements from a selection of Turner Prize nominees and winners from 1984 to 2006 lends further insight to the role the prize has played since its inauguration.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Published to accompany a groundbreaking exhibition of film and video works at Tate Modern, Time Zones explores questions around the nature of time itself and the way it is perceived in modern culture. The international selection of artists featured in the publication, including Fikret Atay, Yael Bartana, Jeroen de Rijke and Willem de Rooij, Wolfgang Staehle, and Fiona Tan, all produce work that is essentially non-narrative, subtly critiquing our perception of 'hot' new technology and making the passage of time a central feature of their work. Essays by Tate curators Jessica Morgan and Gregor Muir will investigate the themes and offer insight into the individual artists included. Peter Osbourne, Sylviane Agachinski and Irit Rogoff contribute essays exploring our changing perceptions of time from a critical and philosophical viewpoint.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Interviews with the artist provide a revealing insight into the physical impact and rigour of his videos, photographic, audio and text-based works over the past decade. Six key works are examined in depth. Born in Glasgow in 1966, Douglas Gordon first came to prominence in the 1990s, winning the Turner Prize in 1996. He soon earned a reputation for making art from preexisting materials, most spectacularly classic films. Gordon's blatant creative "Kidnapping" of movies is best shown in 24 Hour Psycho (1993), in which the effect of stretching the iconic Hitchcock thriller into a daylong and silent screening challenges our understanding of the original version and the psychic themes it probes. Interviews with the artist provide insight into the physical impact and rigor of his video, photographic, audio, and text-based works over the past decade, and six key works are examined in depth.

Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. As the sophistication, range, and numbers of works made for the Internet has burgeoned, major art institutions have moved in, attempting to host and curate them, to ambivalent responses from the artists themselves. Internet art raises fundamental questions about the definition and value (both aesthetics and monetary) of the art object, art's role, and its relationship to its public, and the future of the current art establishment. This work examines the rapid development of Internet art since its beginnings in the mid-1990s and discusses how it has been manipulated and advanced since then. The book looks at how the sophistication and number of works has risen, and what it means to the future of the art establishment.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Lebedev, Vladimir (illustrator). Hardcover. "Ice cream, Strawberry, Peppermint, Lime, Step this way and stand in line!" In 1920s Soviet Russia, writer and poet Samuil Marshak and graphic artist Vladimir Lebedev came together to bring the energy and boldness of Russian avant-garde art into children's publishing. The results of this remarkable collaboration were a series of stunning picture books, four of which are collected and reproduced in full here, newly translated, together in one volume for the first time. The Circus, Ice Cream, How the Plane Made a Plane, and Yesterday and Today are overtly modern and graphically striking. Marshak's joyful rhymes are visually built into Lebedev's illustrations, where figures, objects, and even lettering are simplified into brightly colored geometric shapes. The four stories are a wonderful celebration of modern life, and continue to energize and inspire readers decades after their creation. This is a brand new translation of the Russian children's classics books, together in one volume for the first time. With beautiful reproductions of the original illustrations this is a perfect gift for young and old to enjoy.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. J.M.W. Turner was a fascinating and enigmatic figure. Both astonishingly prolific and extraordinarily innovative, he is widely seen as the greatest British landscape painter of them all, anticipating and surpassing the Impressionists in his dramatic interpretations of the effects of light and colour. "The Turner Book" goes beyond the usual interpretations of the artist, revealing the extraordinary self-belief and ambition that allowed him to continue steadfastly with his experimentation in the face of hostile critical attack. The book examines in detail key works and the techniques by which Turner realised them and features revealing extracts from his notebooks, travel journals and poetry. Beautifully illustrated with both famous and unknown works and ranging over the entire course of the artist's career, this is the essential guide to Turner's life and work. Sam Smiles is Professor of Art History at the University of Plymouth at Exeter and the author of numerous acclaimed books, including "J.M.W.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Common" and "Wealth" seem to suggest two opposed conditions: the shared or communal versus the private and restricted. The works of the five artists, appearing in the exhibition of the same name at Tate Modern Autumn 2003, explore the multiple implications of the two words that form its title. Taken separately, common and wealth suggest two opposite conditions: the shared and communal versus the private and restricted. Bringing together five celebrated international artists, Jennifer Allora and Guillermo Calzadilla, Thomas Hirschhorn, Carsten Hvller, and Gabriel Orozco, this book and the exhibition it accompanies explore the multiple implications of the two words that form its title. Artistic collaboration is the predominant theme, whether between artists creating works together or between artist and audience. The artists also examine what type of common ground the museum space, or architecture in general, might still offer in the face of general disillusionment with the concept of a public sphere. In addition to interviews with each artist, the catalogue contains essays by Jessica Morgan and Richard Sennett, as well as an interview with the renowned theorist Jean-Luc Nancy.
