Libro: HOUSE AND MONUMENTS OF POMPEII (IN/FR/AL) (978-3-8365-5687-3) de Schtze, Sebastian (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. When the excavations at Pompeii were first placed on a scholarly archaeological footing in the 19th century, brothers Fausto and Felice Niccolini were close at hand and ready to respond. Making use of the newly introduced technique of color lithography, they documented the buildings, frescos, statues, as well as the most ordinary everyday objects, of the city buried in just 24 hours by the catastrophic eruption of Vesuvius and preserved for over 1,600 years under a mantle of volcanic ash. The Niccolinis' goal was to illustrate all aspects of life in the antique city. Their publication, Le case ed i monumenti di Pompei ("The Houses and Monuments of Pompeii"), which was issued in installments between 1854 and 1896 in Naples, presented over 400 color plates providing not only views, maps, and groundplans of the city and its public buildings, but also offered unprecedented access to Pompeii's private residences. They revealed the astonishing painted wall decorations that adorned these long-buried abodes, their intricate works of art, and the practical utensils of everyday use, conjuring up a vivid picture of each house as a real domestic space. In total, the plates illustrated more than 1,000 items, each extensively specified and located for the first time, making the publication a major reference in Pompeii research. In addition, "animated" representations visualized daily life in Pompeii's workshops, taverns, and shops, on its public squares, and in its temples, theaters, and baths. This meticulous facsimile revives the Niccolinis' extraordinary achievement with all color plates and two introductory essays setting the project in its contemporary context and presenting the historical protagonists of the Vesuvian excavations. In addition, we explore the remarkable influence exerted by Pompeian art--and by the haunting plaster casts made of victims of the eruption--on the visual arts. Across painting, sculpture, and interior design, we trace the Pompeii legacy in the work of Robert Adam, Anton Raphael Mengs, Angelika Kaufmann, Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, Lawrence Alma-Tadema, Pablo Picasso, and Giorgio de Chirico, right through to recent masters Duane Hanson and George Segal. 0

Libro: Marvel Comics Library. Avengers. Vol. 1. 1963?1965 (978-3-8365-8234-6) de Lee, Stan, Busiek, Kurt, Kirby, Jack (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. By early 1963 the foundations of the Marvel Universe had been laid. Following the introduction of the Fantastic Four in 1961 came the amazing (Spider-Man), the astonishing (Ant-Man), the strange (Doctor, that is), the incredible (Hulk), the invincible (Iron Man) and the mighty (Thor). Still, Marvel editor in chief Stan Lee realized something was missing. "I was writing these characters and I thought it would fun to put them together in a team," he recalled. So Lee and artist Jack Kirby assembled Iron Man, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Thor, and the Hulk to create the Avengers. Right away it was clear this team was different. If the Fantastic Four were family, then the Avengers were the co-workers you didn't choose. Not everyone got along--the Hulk fought with everyone--but working together they could defeat the baddest of Marvel's bad guys, like Loki, Kang the Conqueror, the Masters of Evil, and Immortus. The lineup was ever changing: The Hulk departed, Captain America joined, and Ant-Man grew up to become Giant-Man. Then, remarkably, villains Hawkeye, Quicksilver, and the Scarlet Witch became heroes--and Avengers--and the group's founding members shockingly departed, leaving Captain America to lead the newly-minted heroes. Relive the classic early adventures of Avengers Nos. 1-20 in an XXL-sized edition that's bigger than the Hulk's fist, weightier than Thor's hammer, and with more extras than Iron Man's armor. TASCHEN has attempted to create an ideal representation of these books as they were produced at the time of publication. The most pristine pedigreed comics have been cracked open and photographed for reproduction in close collaboration with Marvel and the Certified Guaranty Company. Each page has then been digitally remastered using modern retouching techniques to correct problems with the era's inexpensive, imperfect printing--as if hot off of a world-class 1960s printing press. Accompanying the stories are an original foreword by Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and an in-depth history by the Eisner Award-winning writer Kurt Busiek that's illustrated with original art, little-seen photographs, and rare documents. This mighty collection about Earth's Mightiest Heroes is worthy of Tony Stark's library--or yours. Also available in a Collector's Edition of 1,000 numbered copies. (c) 2022 MARVEL 0

Libro: TATTOO. 1730s-1970s. Henk Schiffmacher's Private Collection (978-3-8365-6935-4) de SCHIFFMACHER, HENK (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Humanas .Arte .. One part history book, one part art book, and one part fascinating memoir, this book is an overview of more than two centuries of tattoo history intermixed with an intimate look at the lives of tattoo artists, and the personal struggles and triumphs, occupational hazards, and artistic courage that have defined so much of this history. For the last forty years, Henk Schiffmacher has poured his heart and soul into his collection, amassing tattoo drawings, designs, photographs, and artifacts from around the world. Each of the book's five chapters features many never-before-seen highlights from this collection and includes lithographs, etchings, tattooing instruments, paintings, photographs, posters, shop signs, original drawings, and tattoo designs known in the business as flash, among them extremely rare vintage flash sheets from major players in early Western tattooing. The vastness and variety of tattooing around the world is chronicled in the book's 700+ images, including the indigenous tattooing of the Mori and South Pacific islanders, the ancient traditions of Asia, and the origins of old-school Western tattooing in Europe and the United States. The book also features a dozen original illustrations by Schiffmacher in his inimitable style, as well as a personal introduction describing Schiffmacher's own journey as both an artist and a collector that has shaped his view of the art's journey from the underground to the mainstream. Schiffmacher brings a fascinating perspective to tattoo history through his personal reflections and wild tales of adventure. In this book, we learn not only about the history of tattooing, but also about the adventures behind the making of one of the largest tattoo collections in the world, by a self-taught tattoo artist in love with the art and its innovators. 0

Libro: The Marvel Comics Library. Spider-Man. Vol. 1. 1962?1964 (978-3-8365-8233-9) de Lee, Stan, Ralph Macchio (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. When Stan Lee first pitched the idea of Spider-Man in 1962, his boss was full of objections: People hate spiders. Teenagers aren't lead characters; they're sidekicks. He should be glamorous and successful, not a friendless loser. But Stan persisted and Martin Goodman let him give the unlikely hero a tryout in Amazing Fantasy, which was already slated for cancellation. With Spider-Man on the cover, No. 15 shot to the top of Marvel's best-seller list for the year, and the rest is history. Amazing Spider-Man, which debuted seven months later, broke the comics mold. Peter Parker lived in uncool Queens, was always broke, continually worried about his Aunt May, was unlucky in love, and was constantly getting yelled at by his boss, Daily Bugle publisher J. Jonah Jameson. Spider-Man had the quips and confidence that Parker lacked, but learning to use his powers wasn't always easy. He often seemed on the verge of defeat against the rogue's gallery of classic foes that debuted in the first couple of years: Vulture, Doctor Octopus, Sandman, Lizard, Electro, Kraven the Hunter, Mysterio, and the Green Goblin. Much of the credit for Spider-Man's greatness goes to co-creator and artist Steve Ditko, who had a knack for portraying teenagers and their problems. His artwork infused Spider-Man with a loose-limbed energy, and, while maybe everyone was scared of spiders, Ditko made swinging through New York seem like the coolest adventure ever. This XXL-sized collector's dream, close in size to the original artworks, features the first 21 stories of the world's favorite web slinger from 1962-1964. Rather than recolor the original artwork (as has been done in previous decades' reprints of classic comics), TASCHEN has attempted to create an ideal representation of these books as they were produced at the time of publication. The most pristine pedigreed comics have been cracked open and photographed for reproduction in close collaboration with Marvel and the Certified Guaranty Company. Each page has been photographed as printed more than half a century ago, then digitally remastered using modern retouching techniques to correct problems with the era's inexpensive, imperfect printing--as if hot off of a world-class 1960s printing press. A custom paper stock was exclusively developed for this series to simulate the feel of the original comics. With an in-depth historical essay by Marvel editor Ralph Macchio, an introduction by uber-collector David Mandel, and original art, rare photographs, and other gems, these 698 pages of wall-crawling wonder will make anyone's spider-sense tingle with anticipation.

Libro: Helmut Newton. SUMO. 20th Anniversary (978-3-8365-7819-6) de Newton, Helmut (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Humanas .Arte .. Helmut Newton (1920-2004) always showed a healthy disdain for the easy or predictable, so it's no surprise that the SUMO was an irresistible project. The idea of a book the size of a private exhibition, with spectacular images reproduced to state-of-the-art origination and printing standards, emerged from an open, experimental dialogue between photographer and publisher. With the SUMO weighing in--boxed and shrink-wrapped--at 35.4 kg (just under 80 pounds), Newton created a landmark book that stood head and shoulders above anything previously attempted, both in terms of conceptual extravagance and technical specifications. Published in an edition of 10,000 signed and numbered copies, the SUMO sold out soon after publication and quickly multiplied its value. It now features in numerous collections around the world, including New York's Museum of Modern Art. The legendary copy number one, signed by more than 100 of the book's featured celebrities, broke the record for the most expensive book published in the 20th century, sold at an auction in Berlin on April 6, 2000 for 620,000 German marks--about 317,000 euros. Now, this XL edition celebrates 20 years of SUMO, the result of a project conceived by Helmut Newton some years ago. Revised by his wife June, the volume gathers 464 images and a new booklet that takes us through the making-of this publishing venture--a spectacular tribute to the larger-than-life Helmut Newton, now in a friendly format.Images (c) The Helmut Newton Estate / Maconochie Photography 0

Libro: Hokusai: Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (978-3-8365-7572-0) de Marks, Andreas, TASCHEN (Taschen ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. Mount Fuji has long been a centerpiece of Japanese cultural imagination, and nothing captures this with more virtuosity than the landmark woodblock print series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji by Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849). The renowned printmaker documents 19th-century Japan with exceptional artistry and adoration, celebrating its countryside, cities, people, and serene natural beauty. Produced at the peak of Hokusai's artistic ambition, the series is a quintessential work of ukiyo-e that earned the artist world-wide recognition as a leading master of his craft. The prints illustrate Hokusai's own obsession with Mount Fuji as well as the flourishing domestic tourism of the late Edo period. Just as the mountain was a cherished view for travelers heading to the capital Edo (now Tokyo) along the Tkaid road, Mount Fuji is the infallible backdrop to each of the series' unique scenes. Hokusai captures the distinctive landscape and provincial charm of each setting with a vivid palette and exquisite detail. Including the iconic Under the Great Wave off Kanagawa (also The Great Wave), this widely celebrated series is a treasure of international art history. Among only a few complete reprints of the series, this XXL edition pays homage to Hokusai's striking colors and compositions with unprecedented care and magnitude. Bound in the Japanese tradition with uncut paper, Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji presents the original 36 plates plus the additional 10 later added by the artist. The perfect companion piece to TASCHEN's One Hundred Views of Edo and The Sixty-Nine Stations along the Kisokaid, this publication paints an enchanting picture of pre-industrial Japan and is itself a stunning monument to the art of woodblock printing. 0

Libro: MARVEL COMICS LIBRARY. X-MEN. VOL. 1. 1963-1966 (INGLES) (978-3-8365-9454-7) de CLAREMONT,CHRIS/NICIEZA,FABIAN (TASCHEN ESPAA, S.A. ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. Cuando el editor de Marvel, Martin Goodman, le pidió a Stan Lee que ideara un nuevo superequipo para su colección de cómics, no tenía ni idea de que recibiría algo como los X-Men. De hecho, nadie podría haber imaginado el extraordinario fenómeno en el que finalmente se convertirían los X-Men, ni Goodman, ni Lee, ni tan siquiera el visionario futurista Jack Kirby. Lo que pusieron en marcha fue un equipo encantador y heterogéneo de inadaptados, imaginados por Lee y Kirby como seres mutantes: jóvenes nacidos con poderes x-tra que no son el resultado de un encuentro accidental con rayos cósmicos o una explosión nuclear, dirigidos por un profesor sensato que los entrena para proteger al mundo de amenazas, mutantes y demás peligros.Las historias de los primeros años sentaron las bases de lo que convirtió a los X-Men en un punto de encuentro del cómic y la cultura popular: Acosados por una ciudadanía que los teme y malinterpreta, los mutantes se encuentran inmersos en su propia lucha por los derechos civiles; Cíclope, Marvel Girl, ángel, Bestia y Hombre de Hielo encuentran la seguridad en su grupo a pesar de los desafíos a los que se enfrentan por ser diferentes a los demás; y el profesor Xavier los prepara para enfrentarse contra su enemigo ideológico, Magneto, quien ha formado una Hermandad de Mutantes Malvados para llevar la lucha por su autoconservación directamente a la humanidad.Mientras todo eso se desarrollaba, Lee y Kirby, que estaban entregados a la causa de hacer de Marvel la editorial de referencia en el mundo del cómic, introdujeron una colección de villanos y personajes secundarios que se convertirían en los pilares de Marvel y su tradición: los hermanos con superpoderes Quicksilver y Bruja Escarlata; la formidable Mancha; el imparable Juggernaut; Ka-Zar, el habitante de la jungla de la Tierra Salvaje; Extraño, el semidiós de las estrellas; y Bolivar Trask y su ejército de centinelas cazadores de mutantes. Y cuando Lee y Kirby dieron paso a nuevos talentos para poder ocupar nuevos rincones del Universo Marvel, Werner Roth, el veterano dibujante de la era Atlas, se asoció con el escritor recién llegado y futura leyenda de X-Men, Roy Thomas, para comenzar su larga historia con el equipo.De tamaño similar a las obras originales, esta edición XXL presenta las primeras 21 historias, publicadas de 1963 a 1966, de nuestros excéntricos superhéroes favoritos. Se han abierto ejemplares originales inmaculados y se han fotografiado para su reproducción en estrecha colaboración con Marvel y Certified Guarantee Company. Cada página se ha fotografiado tal y como se imprimió hace más de medio siglo y luego se ha remasterizado digitalmente utilizando técnicas modernas de retoque para corregir los problemas con la impresión económica e imperfecta de la época...

Libro: Annie Leibovitz (978-3-8365-8218-6) de Martin, Steve, Leibovitz, Annie (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Tiempo Libre .Fotografía .. When Benedikt Taschen asked the most important portrait photographer working today, Annie Leibovitz, to collect her pictures in a SUMO-sized book, she was intrigued by the challenge. The project took several years to develop and when it was finally published in 2014, it weighed in at 26 kg (57 pounds). This incredible collection is now available in an accessible XXL book format. Leibovitz drew on more than 40 years of work, starting with the photojournalism she did for Rolling Stone magazine in the 1970s through the conceptual portraits she made for Vanity Fair and Vogue. She selected iconic images--such as John Lennon and Yoko Ono entwined in a last embrace--as well as portraits that had rarely, if ever, been seen before. The Annie Leibovitz SUMO covered political and cultural history, from Queen Elizabeth II and Richard Nixon to Laurie Anderson and Lady Gaga. "What I had thought of initially as a simple process of imagining what looked good big, what photographs would work in a large format, became something else," Leibovitz says. "The book is very personal, but the narrative is told through popular culture. It's not arranged chronologically and it's not a retrospective. It's more like a roller coaster." Fans of Leibovitz and her many celebrated subjects can now enjoy that same roller coaster ride for themselves with this unlimited edition. 0

Libro: Kuma. Complete Works 1988?Today (978-3-8365-7512-6) de Jodidio, Philip (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Técnicas .Arquitectura .. Famous First Edition: First printing of 5,000 numbered copies After Tadao Ando, Toyo Ito, and Fumihiko Maki, Kengo Kuma has breathed renewed vigor and lightness into Japanese architecture. Departing from the modernist skyscraper of the 20th century, Kuma traveled through his native Japan to develop a truly sustainable approach, translating local craftsmanship and resources into site-specific, timely buildings. Informed by tradition, and with both feet firmly planted in the present, this "materialist" heralds a new tactile architecture marked by its engaging surfaces, innovative structures, and fluid forms, reconnecting people with the physicality of a house. Kuma's objective, above all else, is "just to respect the culture and environment of the place where I am working." To this end, Kuma shaped the China Academy of Art's Folk Art Museum partially from discarded roof tiles; created a Chapel out of birch and moss in Nagano; and worked with local craftsmen to sculpt the VA Dundee into a twisted, layered reflection of the Scottish coastal cliffs. With an extraordinary sensitivity for space, light, and texture, Kuma reveals unexpected qualities in materials, finding the weightlessness of stone in Chokkura Plaza and the softness of aluminum in the thatched roof of the Yangcheng Lake Tourist Transportation Center. More recently, the architect brought his philosophy to the Japan National Stadium built for the Olympic Games, originally planned for 2020. Kuma has said the stadium could be "the catalyst that will transform Tokyo back from a concrete city. I want it to set an example that will help alter the direction of Japanese architectural design." In this XXL-sized monograph with some 500 illustrations spanning photographs, sketches, and plans, Kuma guides us through his entire career to date, detailing milestone projects as well as ongoing works. Soon also available as an Art Edition with a custom-built wooden slipcase and accompanied by a photogravure of a sketch by Kengo Kuma, signed by the artist and limited to 200 copies. 0

Libro: AN AMERICAN ODYSSEY (978-3-8365-4210-4) de Walter, Marc, Arqué, Sabine (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. érase una vez en América Las primeras fotografías en color del Nuevo Mundo Esta colección de fotocromos y postales Photostint, que ha visto la luz recientemente, fue encargada por la Detroit Photographic Company entre 1888 y 1924 y procede de la colección particular de Marc Walter. El proceso fotolitográfico, que precedió al autocromo en casi 20 años, permitió a la gente de la época conocer las primeras fotografías en color de Estados Unidos. Por vez primera, los colores del continente entero se habían puesto a disposición de todos. Los vibrantes ocres y marrones del Gran Cañón o el resplandor de Atlantic City deleitaron los ojos no solo de quienes podían ser testigos directos, sino de los estadounidenses de todos los confines del país. Estas imágenes, que destilan un aire de descubrimiento y aventura, constituyen un viaje por el pasado para conocer las gentes de la época y los lugares que habitaban. Nos conducen a los inmensos y variados paisajes de Norteamérica, a sus numerosas comunidades y, sobre todo, nos transportan al que fue el Nuevo Mundo de hace un siglo. Esta extensa retrospectiva lleva al lector, mediante más de 600 páginas y varios desplegables, de los asentamientos de los indios americanos al barrio chino de Nueva York, pasando por algunos de los últimos cowboys que poblaron Coney Island en su mejor época. Tan espléndidas hoy como lo fueron hace 120 años, cuando presentaron América a los americanos, estas extraordinarias imágenes poco habituales traen al presente la América del pasado. 0

Libro: LIFE, Hollywood (978-3-8365-8959-8) de TASCHEN (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. In November 1936, publisher Henry R. Luce launched LIFE as a photo-led weekly news magazine with a clear purpose: "To see life; to see the world; to eyewitness great events." Before readers' attention was consumed by television, LIFE served as their window to the world, and by the late 1940s, it was being read by 1 in 3 Americans. Jean Harlow was the first movie star to appear on a LIFE cover in 1937, and from then until 1972 over 200 covers featured Hollywood-related subjects, illustrating the strength of the bond between LIFE and the film industry. Matching the splendor of the finest Hollywood production, this two-volume epic blockbuster tells the intertwined story of a magazine and an art form that embodied the pinnacle of American imagination. Meticulously researched and curated, it features over 600 images from the magazine's archives--well over half previously unpublished--and stars icons such as Bette Davis, Elizabeth Taylor, Marlon Brando, Clark Gable, Steve McQueen, Sophia Loren, Alfred Hitchcock, Sidney Poitier, Paul Newman, Jane Fonda, Brigitte Bardot and many more. LIFE had special access to these celebrities following them on set, to extravagant parties, Oscar nights and at home, providing readers with intimate glimpses of their lives away from the spotlight. Volume 1 (1936-1950s) covers the Golden Age of Hollywood: dashing leading men, glamorous starlets, powerful studio moguls, and opulent lifestyles. Witness how LIFE didn't just indulge fantasy, but also documented the inner workings of the industry and the collective effort that went into creating the illusions on the screen, from screenwriters and composers to publicists and acting coaches. Volume 2 (1950s-1972) focuses on the New Hollywood, in which major studios gradually lost their stronghold, marked by a shift toward independent films, international stars, and a more diverse array of voices and faces. See how LIFE reported from the sets of classic movies such as The Godfather, Guys and Dolls, and The Ten Commandments; and with the aid of exclusive editorial materials like contact sheets, tear sheets from the stories, and internal editorial notes, we learn how LIFE planned and framed their innovative photo-essays. Featuring introductory texts by photography critic Lucy Sante, captions by film historian Justin Humphreys, and over 70 legendary LIFE photographers such as Alfred Eisenstaedt, Peter Stackpole, Gordon Parks, Lisa Larsen, Margaret Bourke-White, Gjon Mili, and many others, LIFE. Hollywood is a celebration of the 20th century's most important photography magazine and the irresistible allure of Hollywood and movie magnificence. 0

Libro: Ando. Complete Works 1975-Today. 2023 Edition (978-3-8365-8956-7) de Jodidio, Philip (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. Discover the completely unique aesthetic of Tadao Ando, the only architect ever to have won the discipline's four most prestigious prizes: the Pritzker, Carlsberg, Praemium Imperiale, and Kyoto Prize. Philippe Starck defines him as a "mystic in a country which is no longer mystic." Philip Drew calls his buildings "land art" as they "struggle to emerge from the earth." His designs have been described as haiku crafted from concrete, water, light, and space. But to Ando, true architecture is not expressed in metaphysics or beauty, but rather through space that embodies physical wisdom.

Libro: The Golden Age of Travel (978-3-8365-4977-6) de Walter, Marc, Arqué, Sabine (Taschen ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Otros Idiomas .Novela y Narrativa en Inglés .. Wanderlust Rediscover the golden age of adventure Global travel can be a wearying business: Mass tourism, overcrowded planes, chaotic airports, heightened security, cookie-cutter hotel chains, well-worn tourist trails. Finding even a sliver of adventure can sometimes feel impossible. But take heart: For all of us with an unfulfilled spirit of wanderlust, The Golden Age of Travel evokes an era when travelling the world was a thrilling new possibility for those with the resources, time, imagination, and daring. In this richly illustrated book, bedecked with ephemera and archive images, we set out on six global tours favored by Western adventurers in the pre-war era, including such famous traveller-writers as Charles Dickens, Jules Verne, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Mark Twain, and Goethe. From the Grand Tour of Europe - a traditional rite-of-passage for young English aristocrats, to the Far East, barely touched by Western influence, we follow each journey through its itinerant stops and various modes of transport: trains, boats, cars, planes, horses, donkeys, and camels. With pages brimming with archival travel posters, guides, tickets, leaflets, brochures, menus, and luggage stickers, rediscover the elegance, not to mention the sheer sense of novelty, that would have enthralled these golden age passengers. Through decadent new cities, or wild, rugged terrains, this is your passport to a long-lost epoch of adventure and wide-eyed wonder at the world. Text in English, French, and German 0

Libro: Bruce Weber. The Golden Retriever Photographic Society (978-3-8365-8663-4) de Goodall, Jane (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. The photographer and filmmaker Bruce Weber is associated with a wide array of imagery: humanist portraits of artists, actors, and athletes; fashion spreads charged with emotion, irreverence, and nostalgia; lyrical tributes to eroticism and an arcadian vision of the American landscape. All these things--and golden retrievers, too. Since the very beginning, Weber has been accompanied on his travels by a pack of these benevolent canines, who have populated his photographs for fashion campaigns, prominent magazines, and the pages of his personal scrapbooks in equal measure. The Golden Retriever Photographic Society is Weber's first career-spanning collection of these photographs, one he describes as his most personal. In the introduction to the monograph, Weber remarks, "People sometimes say to me, 'In my next life, I want to come back as one of your dogs.'" Paging through this volume, we understand the sentiment. For five decades, these golden retrievers have been foils for Weber's imagination, storybook characters in the expansive life he has created with wife, Nan Bush. This book celebrates the human-animal bond, illuminating how connection to one's pets can fuel creativity, provide companionship, and foster an abundance of joy. 0

Libro: REM KOOLHAAS ELEMENTS OF ARCHITECTURE (IN) (978-3-8365-5614-9) de Koolhaas, Rem (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Técnicas .Arquitectura .. Elements of Architecture focuses on the fragments of the rich and complex architectural collage. Window, faade, balcony, corridor, fireplace, stair, escalator, elevator: the book seeks to excavate the micro-narratives of building detail. The result is no single history, but rather the web of origins, contaminations, similarities, and differences in architectural evolution, including the influence of technological advances, climatic adaptation, political calculation, economic contexts, regulatory requirements, and new digital opportunities. It's a guide that is long overdue--in Koolhaas's own words, "Never was a book more relevant--at a moment where architecture as we know it is changing beyond recognition." Derived, updated, and expanded from Koolhaas's exhaustive and much-lauded exhibition at the 2014 Venice Architecture Biennale, this is an essential toolkit to understanding the fundamentals that comprise structure around the globe. Designed by Irma Boom and based on research from the Harvard Graduate School of Design, the 2,600-page monograph contains essays from Rem Koolhaas, Stephan Trueby, Manfredo di Robilant, and Jeffrey Inaba; interviews with Werner Sobek and Tony Fadell (of Nest); and an exclusive photo essay by Wolfgang Tillmans. In addition to comprehensively updated texts and new images, this edition is designed and produced to visually (and physically) embody the immense scope of its subject matter: Custom split-spine binding: our printer modified their industrial binding machine to allow for the flexible, eight-centimeter thick spine Contains a new introductory chapter with forewords, table of contents, and an index, located in the middle of the book (where it naturally opens due to its unique spine) Printed on 50g Opakal paper, allowing for the ideal level of opacity needed to realize Boom's palimpsest-like design Translucent overlays and personal annotations by Koolhaas and Boom are woven in each chapter to create an alternative, faster route through the book Printed at the originally intended 100% size for full readability 0

Libro: Marvel Comics Library. Avengers. Vol. 2. 1965?1967 (978-3-8365-9159-1) de Thomas, Roy (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. The shock of Stan Lee?s decision to pare down the Avengers from a mighty assemblage of Marvel?s most popular characters to a ?Kooky Quartet? of reformed villains led by a recently revived Captain America was a risky decision, but it proved a masterstroke. Freed from worrying about the editorial entanglements of what was going on in other titles, Lee and his art partner Don Heck could focus on giving the Avengers unbridled adventures in their own space?and that?s just what they did! Hawkeye, Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, and Cap took on all comers, often in multi-part epics that pitted the Avengers against foes old and new. The Enchantress was on hand, bringing to the fore two new partners in evil in the Swordsman and Power Man. Kang lured the Avengers into a cosmic clash for the ages?in a story featuring some of Stan?s best writing of the era. Tussles with Doctor Doom, Attuma, and the Sub-Mariner saw bad guys from other corners of the Marvel Universe getting a fresh look in The Avengers. And the Sons of the Serpent embroiled Earth?s Mightiest into a dire threat born out of the social consciousness of the era. The Avengers of 1965?1967 also featured change within the ranks of the team and its creative stable! The team would eventually grow to include returning members Hank Pym and the Wasp ? with Pym no longer taking the guise of Giant-Man but adopting the new costume and moniker of Goliath. Meanwhile, the Black Widow and Hercules would begin their tenures with the Avengers as guest stars, proving that the only constant to the team?s lineup was change. Stan Lee would depart as writer in the summer of 1966, handing the keys to the Avengers over to newcomer Roy Thomas, whose earliest stories set the stage for his future glories guiding the title to an era of milestones. The seminal issues of Avengers Nos. 21?40 are collected here in a volume that closely simulates the size and proportions of the original comic artboards; all individual issues have been sourced from the collection of Bob Bretall, holder of the Guinness World Record for largest comics collection. Bretall?s pedigreed collection has been photographed using meticulous reproduction methods, resembling the way these comics first looked when initially published in 1965 and 1966, while also being digitally remastered using modern retouching techniques to correct problems with the era?s inexpensive, imperfect printing. A custom paper stock was developed exclusively for this series to simulate the newsprint feel and color holding of the original comics. The Marvel Comics Library has earned well-deserved raves from comic collecting diehards for combining an old school comic book reading experience with a luxurious oversized book format, winning the industry?s coveted Eisner Award for Best Publication Design. Complementing the comics is an...
