Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) remains one of the most popular and influential artists of the 20th century. His ornate, sensual paintings, often charged with eroticism and embellished with gold, have been reproduced as bestselling posters, cards and book jackets, familiar to many who know little of the artist who created them. Published to accompany a major exhibition at Tate Liverpool, the first Klimt show in the UK and the highlight of that city's Capital of Culture celebrations in 2008, "Gustav Klimt" will explore the life and work of this unique and intriguing figure who was at the epicentre of the cultural renaissance that swept Vienna at the turn of the century.Central to the book will be the first thorough examination of the relationship between Klimt's paintings and mosaics and the work of architect Josef Hofmann, a close friend of the artist. This book will reach beyond the two-dimensional arts to examine the birth of an all-inclusive design culture in Vienna and examine fashion in clothing, jewellery, furniture and interior design. Essays by leading critics will concentrate on key works and key moments, including the foundation of the Vienna Secession; the exhibition of The Beethoven Frieze, and the collaborations with architects and designers in creating total artistic environments such as the Palais Stoclet in Brussels. There will also be an essay on Klimt's erotic works, particularly his drawings, examining his relationship with the women he portrayed. Lavishly illustrated to capture the intensity of Klimt's palette, this will be a fittingly sumptuous tribute to the achievement of a unique artistic innovator.

Paperback. Condition: New. 1. The large-format paintings of Nam Kim (born 1991 in the US, lives in Vienna) are inhabited by chunky androgynous, naked figures, which gently blend with the vegetation, light and shadows, or ornaments around them. "The figures resonate with fluid grace, caught in the intimate moment between thought and touch." (R. Grunenberg).Here, the human body is equal to its natural environs and not separate. Kim begins her paintings with zones of gestural abstraction, from which the characters grow like plants into her compositions. Kim grew up in Korea and her painting practice combines elements of Asian traditions (in art and theatre) with Western art history and virtuality. This book presents her works of the last three years and includes an insightful essay by Robert Grunenberg.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. Picasso Peace and Freedom is the first in-depth examination of Picasso as a politically and socially engaged artist, from the 1940s, when he defiantly remained in Paris during the Nazi occupation, through the Cold War period. Picasso was a member of, and a huge financial donor to, the Communist Party from 1944 until his death in 1973. Both the FBI and MI5 held substantial files on him. Picasso's political commitment and its implications for his work represent the last undiscovered territory in the study of the artist. Rather than treating him as an isolated titan of modern art, this book considers Picasso as a history painter and looks at key works from 1944 to 1973. Precisely dated, the works can be connected to world events of the time, from Franco's activities in Spain to the Cuban missile crisis. A key image is the Dove of Peace, which became the emblem of the Peace Movement in the 1960s. This important book reinstates a key element in our understanding of Picasso.…
