Libro: Massimo Listri. The World?s Most Beautiful Libraries. 40th Ed. (978-3-8365-9381-6) de TASCHEN (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. From the mighty halls of ancient Alexandria to the coffered ceilings of the Morgan Library in New York, human beings have had a long, enraptured relationship with libraries. Like no other concept and like no other space, the collection of knowledge, learning, and imagination offers a sense of infinite possibility. It's the unrivaled realm of discovery, where every faded manuscript or mighty clothbound tome might reveal a provocative new idea, a far-flung fantasy, an ancient belief, a religious conviction, or a whole new way of being in the world. In this new photographic journey, Massimo Listri travels to some of the oldest and finest libraries to reveal their architectural, historical, and imaginative wonder. Through great wooden doors, up spiraling staircases, and along exquisite, shelf-lined corridors, he leads us through outstanding private, public, educational, and monastic libraries, dating as far back as 766. Between them, these medieval, classical, baroque, rococo, and 19th-century institutions hold some of the most precious records of human thought and deed, inscribed and printed in manuscripts, volumes, papyrus scrolls, and incunabula. In each, Listri's poised images capture the library's unique atmosphere, as much as their most prized holdings and design details. Featured libraries include the papal collections of the Vatican Apostolic Library and the Trinity College Library, home to the Book of Kells and Book of Durrow. With meticulous descriptions accompanying each featured library, we learn not only of the libraries' astonishing holdings--from which highlights are illustrated--but also of their often lively, turbulent, or controversial pasts. Like the Franciscan monastery in Lima, Peru, with its horde of archival Inquisition documents. At once a bibliophile beauty pageant, an ode to knowledge, and an evocation of the particular magic of print, this compact edition of our best-selling XXL-title is above all a cultural-historical pilgrimage to the heart of our halls of learning, to the stories they tell, as much as those they gather in printed matter along polished shelves. 0

Libro: UWE OMMER, TRANSIT, AROUND THE WORLD IN 1424 DAYS (978-3-8228-4654-4) de Ommer, Uwe (TASCHEN BENEDIKT ) Comprar Libros de Tiempo Libre .Fotografía .. TRANSIT AROUND THE WORLD IN 1424 DAYS Alrededor del mundo en 1424 días: la travesía épica detrás del libro 1000 Familias. Podríamos definirlo como un testimonio visual, a medio camino entre borrador y cuaderno de bitácora, pero nos quedaríamos cortos. Transit representa mucho más: nada más y nada menos que cuatro años de trabajo y 250.000 km de viaje alrededor del mundo. No en vano le escribe Kofi Annan, Secretario General de la ONU, a Ommer al ver la famosa exposición de las 1000 familias: Querido Señor: mi esposa Nane y yo mismo, hemos apreciado mucho la exposición que ha presentado a la orilla del río Wilson en Ginebra. Sus retratos de familias de los cinco continentes ilustran de manera admirable y de manera positiva la diversidad y la riqueza histórica de nuestro mundo. Sí, si 1000 Familias fue considerado el álbum familiar del planeta tierra, este libro es la narración visual de la epopeya emprendida por el fotógrafo Ommer para darle forma. Y como dice el propio autor: después de cruzar fronteras inexpugnables y puentes, de lidiar con extraños agentes de aduana y romper mi irrompible Land Rover, comprobé que la sentencia si algo puede salir seguramente saldrá mal era cierta. Este divertido y original relato visual de un viaje tan especial nos lleva a conocer y a comprobar que la gente en todo el mundo se parece mucho a la vez que se diferencia, y en eso consiste la riqueza de la humanidad. Uwe Ommer nació en Alemania en el año 1943. A temprana edad se fascinó por la fotografía y en el año 1962 se mudó a París donde luego de trabajar como asistente de un fotógrafo logró abrir su propio estudio y dedicarse a la fotografía publicitaria. En el año 1979 ya publicaba su primer libro recopilatorio: Photoedition Uwe Ommer. No sería hasta 1995 que planea lanzarse a la aventura para fotografiar las 1000 Familias, un libro que quería publicar para el año 2000 editado por TASCHEN. Desde ese año la exposición producto del viaje gira alrededor del mundo. En el año 2002 se le concedió el honor de ser nombrado miembro de la Royal Photographic Society por el impacto de su trabajo en la sociedad. 0

Libro: Homes for Our Time. Contemporary Houses Around the World. Vol. 3 (978-3-8365-9449-3) de Jodidio, Philip (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. Peeking behind the scenes of innovative homes, Philip Jodidio illustrates the evolution of today's global architecture--from Samira Rathod's House of Concrete Experiments in India to Tetro's Aucena House in Brazil, which adapts to its natural terrain. The houses featured in this book may be the first full generation to take advantage of the ubiquity of computing power--from design to fabrication--yet this high-tech approach has in no way diminished their variety and originality. In Italy, Mario Cucinella built TECLA - Technology and Clay, a 3D-printed house created entirely with raw earth. The unique house, printed in 200 hours with 60 cubic meters of natural materials, unveils potential low-cost, environmentally responsible approaches to architecture. In Hyderabad, India, Kanan Modi designed her House of Gardens not only to diffuse and reduce heat within the structure but also to invite the beauty of nature indoors--both essential in the face of rising temperatures and increasing urbanization. These forward-thinking buildings were designed by capitalizing on technological advances such as video conferencing and 3D printing, fostering inventiveness and imagination, and yielding sustainable, site-specific homes. Atelier Bow-Wow virtually directed the construction of their Peninsula House on the Greek island of Antiporos during the COVID-19 pandemic; Mariko Mori's Yuputira unifies her artistic and architectural aesthetics; and Anne Fougeron's Suspension House breathes new life into a remarkable natural setting. Detailing 59 cutting-edge projects from 25 countries--ranging from Guatemala and Slovenia to Norway and Vietnam--the third volume of the Homes for Our Time series takes readers on an illustrated visit of contemporary architectural gems, discovering the architects who are driving change in the field now, and in the future. These homes are the beating heart of creativity that will inspire architecture for decades to come. 0

Libro: Homes for Our Time. Contemporary Houses Around the World: Contemporary Houses Around the World (978-3-8365-7117-3) de Jodidio, Philip (TASCHEN AMER LLC ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Técnicas .Arquitectura .Urbanismo .. Across small cottages and lavish villas, beach houses and forest refuges, discover the world's finest crop of new homes. This cutting-edge global digest features such talents as Shigeru Ban, MVRDV, and Marcio Kogan alongside up-and-coming names like Aires Mateus, Xu Fu-Min, Vo Trong Nghia, Desai Chia, and Shunri Nishizawa. Here, there are homes in Australia and New Zealand, from China and Vietnam, in the United States and Mexico, and on to less expected places like Ecuador and Costa Rica. The result is a sweeping survey of the contemporary house and a revelation that homes across the globe may have more in common than expected. Among guava trees and abandoned forts in Western India is a sanctuary designed for and by Kamal Malik of Malik Architecture. The House of Three Streams is a sprawling spectacle with high ceilings, verandas, and pavilions, perched atop a ridge overlooking two ravines. A medley of steel, glass, wood, and stone, the house weaves along the contour of the landscape, almost as an extension of the forest. Encina House by Aranguren Gallegos, an elegant, sloping structure reminiscent of a gazebo, similarly inhabits its surrounding vista. Ensconced in a pine forest north of Madrid, the lower level is embedded in rock and connected to the upper by a natural stone wall. Shinichi Ogawa's Seaside House is an immaculate two-story minimalist marvel in Kanagawa that overlooks the Pacific. Its living area spills onto a cantilevered terrace and infinity pool, almost dissolving into the ocean as one seamless entity. In Vietnam, Shunri Nishizawa's House in Chau Doc exudes tropical sophistication with exposed timber beams, woven bamboo, plants, concrete panels, and inner balconies and terraces. Its corrugated iron panels act as moveable walls and shutters, ushering in views of surrounding rice fields. These homes--along with more than 50 others--are each remarkably distinct in design. They all, however, toe the line between inside and outside, each one symbiotic with its surroundings. 0

Libro: The NASA Archives. 60 Years in Space. 40th Ed. (978-3-8365-8808-9) de BIZONY A, PIERS (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Otros .. On October 1, 1958, the world's first civilian space agency opened for business as an emergency response to the Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik a year earlier. Within a decade, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, universally known as NASA, had evolved from modest research teams experimenting with small converted rockets into one of the greatest technological and managerial enterprises ever known, capable of sending people to the Moon aboard gigantic rockets and of dispatching robot explorers to Venus, Mars, and worlds far beyond. In spite of occasional, tragic setbacks in NASA's history, the Apollo lunar landing project remains a byword for American ingenuity; the winged space shuttles spearheaded the International Space Station and a dazzling array of astronomical satellites and robotic landers, and Earth observation programs have transformed our understanding of the cosmos and our home world's fragile place within it. Throughout NASA's 60-year history, images have played a central role. Who today is not familiar with the Hubble Space Telescope's mesmerizing views of the universe or the pin-sharp panoramas of Mars from NASA's surface rovers? And who could forget the photographs of the first men walking on the Moon? This compact edition is derived from our XL edition, which was researched in collaboration with NASA, and gathers hundreds of historic photographs and rare concept renderings, scanned and remastered using the latest technology. Texts by science and technology journalist Piers Bizony, former NASA chief historian Roger Launius, and best-selling Apollo historian Andrew Chaikin round out this comprehensive exploration of NASA, from its earliest days to its current development of new space systems for the future. The NASA Archives is more than just a fascinating pictorial history of the U.S. space program. It is also a profound meditation on why we choose to explore space and how we will carry on this grandest of all adventures in the years to come. 0

Libro: All American Ads of the 50s (978-3-8365-5132-8) de Heimann, Jim (Taschen ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Humanas .Arte .. Advertising in the Atomic Age From "The World's Finest Automatic Washer" to the Cadillac which "Gives a Man a New Outlook" As McCarthyism swept across the United States and capitalism was king, white America enjoyed a feeling of pride and security that was reflected in advertising. Carelessly flooding society with dangerous misinformation, companies in the 50s promoted everything from vacations in Las Vegas, where guests could watch atomic bombs detonate, to cigarettes as healthy mood-enhancers, promoted by a baby who claims his mother feels better after she smokes a Marlboro. From "The World's Finest Automatic Washer" to the Cadillac which "Gives a Man a New Outlook," you'll find a colorful plethora of ads for just about anything the dollar could buy. Oh, and "Have you noticed how many of your neighbors are using Herman Miller furniture these days?" If only you could really travel back in time and pick up a few chairs for your collection... "Anyone who approaches with questions about how people lived, ate, felt and consumed in earlier decades will find the TASCHEN ad books an excellent investment." -- The Toronto Star 0

Libro: SINS OF THE CITY. TE REAL LOS ANGELES NOIR. INGLES, ALEMAN, FRANCES. TAPA DURA C (978-3-8365-6076-4) de Heimann, Jim (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Tiempo Libre .Fotografía .. In the years following World War I, Los Angeles was a city awakening to its darker side, transforming itself from a backwater town to a gleaming metropolis and city of the future. But along the way a tarnished patina began to coat its ever-more glamorous faade. As thousands flocked to the city with their dreams and desires, so too came get-rich-quick schemes, phony religions, organized crime, and corruption. A visual history like no other, Dark City brings together images from archives, museums, newspaper photo morgues, private collections, and the author's extensive image library to reveal the true grit, grime, and sheer horror stories of Los Angeles from the 1920s to 1950s. In large format, we roam through the back alleys, gin joints, tattoo parlors, gambling dens, nightclubs, and the most brutal crime scenes, to uncover a city crawling with murder and mayhem. From Sunset Boulevard to a jazz-saturated Central Avenue, tabloid headlines chronicle the most famous celebrities and infamous crimes in a hopped-up city that provided inspiration for journalists, pulp fiction scribes, and filmland script writers in their creation of the noir genre. With rare vintage magazine reprints from the crime tabloids of the time, this is a uniquely evocative visual history through which the crime, crooks, crazies, and mean streets of the City of Angels are transformed from myth to reality. 0

Libro: The Eiffel Tower (978-3-8365-8441-8) de Lemoine, Bertrand ... [et al.] (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Humanas .Arte .. "The Tower is also present to the entire world... a universal symbol of Paris... from the Midwest to Australia, there is no journey to France which isn't made, somehow, in the Tower's name." -- Roland Barthes When Gustave Eiffel completed his wrought iron tower on Paris's Champ de Mars for the World's Fair in 1889, he laid claim to the tallest structure in the world. Though the Chrysler Building would, 41 years later, scrape an even higher sky, the Eiffel Tower lost none of its lofty wonder: originally granted just a 20-year permit, the Tower became a permanent and mesmerizing fixture on the Parisian skyline. Commanding by day, twinkling by night, it has mesmerized Francophiles and lovers, writers, artists, and dreamers from all over the world, welcoming around seven million visitors every single year. Based on an original, limited edition folio by Gustave Eiffel himself, this fresh TASCHEN edition explores the concept and construction of this remarkable building. Step by step, one latticework layer after another, Eiffel's iconic design evolves over double-page plates, meticulous drawings, and on-site photographs, including new images and even more historical context. The result is at once a gem of vintage architecture and a unique insight into the idea behind an icon. 0

Libro: The Bauhaus (978-3-8365-6014-6) de Droste, Magdalena, Gssel, Peter (TASCHEN AMER LLC ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. In a fleeting fourteen year period, sandwiched between two world wars, Germany's Bauhaus school of art and design changed the face of modernity. With utopian ideals for the future, the school developed a pioneering fusion of fine art, craftsmanship, and technology to be applied across painting, sculpture, design, architecture, film, photography, textiles, ceramics, theatre, and installation. As much an intense personal community as a publicly minded collective, the Bauhaus was first founded by Walter Gropius (1883-1969), and counted Josef and Anni Albers, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Oskar Schlemmer, Gunta Stlzl, Marianne Brandt and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe among its members. Between its three successive locations in Weimar, Dessau and Berlin, the school fostered charismatic and creative exchange between teachers and students, all varied in their artistic styles and preferences, but united in their idealism and their interest in a "total" work of art across different practices and media. This book celebrates the adventurous innovation of the Bauhaus movement, both as a trailblazer in the development of modernism, and as a paradigm of art education, where an all-encompassing freedom of creative expression and cutting-edge ideas led to functional and beautiful creations. 0

Libro: Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse. the Ultimate History. 40th Ed (978-3-8365-8099-1) de Gerstein, David, Kaufman, J. B., Kothenschulte, Daniel (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Tiempo Libre .Almanaques, carteles, calendarios y agendas .. On November 18, 1928, the world's most famous Mouse made his very first public debut. Today, we celebrate 90+ years of Mickey in one of the most expansive illustrated publications on the Disney universe. Starting with the first sketches of a character who was almost named Mortimer, we trace the career of Walt Disney's and Ub Iwerks's most famous creation, one met with an explosion of worldwide popularity preceded only by the earlier successes of Charlie Chaplin. With unlimited access to Disney's vast historical collections as well as public and private collections, the authors bring Mickey's success story to life: concept art, story sketches, background paintings, and animation drawings as well as historical photographs trace the origins and evolution of such timeless favorites as Steamboat Willie, The Band Concert, and Brave Little Tailor. They also follow Mickey as he builds on this legendary library of short cartoons by appearing in two historic feature-length films, Fantasia and Fun and Fancy Free. Extensive archival research sheds new light on little-known chapters of Mickey's career, the origins of the Mickey Mouse Club, and his use as a patriotic icon during World War II. Along the way, we encounter the work of all major Mickey artists in both film and comics, including such greats as Ub Iwerks, Win Smith, Ferdinand Horvath, Fred Moore, Floyd Gottfredson, Carl Barks, Manuel Gonzales, Paul Murry, Romano Scarpa, Giorgio Cavazzano, Byron Erickson, and César Ferioli. Mickey Mouse has left an indelible mark on everyday culture as well as high art, becoming a favored subject for Pop artists such as Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, and Roy Lichtenstein. As Walt Disney once said: "I only hope that we never lose sight of one thing--that it was all started by a mouse." And an end to the success story is nowhere in sight. Today, 90+ years after his creation, Mickey remains as lovable and popular as ever. Let's pay tribute to the little fellow, his legend, and his legacy with a monument to the one and only Mickey Mouse. Copyright (c) 2020 Disney Enterprises, Inc. 0

Libro: Tom Of Finland XXL (978-3-8365-2724-8) de Maupin, Armistead, Lucie-Smith, Edward, Waters, John, Paglia, Camille, ,HANSON, DIAN, Oldham, Todd (Taschen ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Humanas .Arte .. In 1998, TASCHEN introduced the world to the masterful art of Touko Laaksonen with The Art of Pleasure. Prior to that, Laaksonen, better known as Tom of Finland, enjoyed an intense cult following in the international gay community but was largely unknown to a broader audience. In 2009, TASCHEN followed up with the ultimate Tom overview: Tom of Finland XXL, a beautiful big collector's edition with over 1,000 images, covering six decades of the artist's career. The work was gathered from collections across the United States and Europe with the help of the Tom of Finland Foundation, featuring many drawings, paintings, and sketches never previously reproduced. Other images had only been seen out of context and were finally presented in the sequential order Tom intended for full artistic appreciation and erotic impact. The elegant oversized volume showed the full range of Tom's talent, from sensitive portraits to frank sexual pleasure to tender expressions of love and haunting tributes to young men struck down by AIDS, and was completed by eight commissioned essays on Tom's social and personal impact by Camille Paglia, John Waters, Armistead Maupin, Todd Oldham, and others, plus a scholarly analysis of individual drawings by art historian Edward Lucie-Smith. The only thing missing from Tom of Finland XXL was a widely affordable price tag--until now. The new Tom of Finland XXL is still big enough to work your biceps, and includes all of the original content, but costs a fraction of the original price. You're welcome. 0

Libro: Kay Nielsen?s A Thousand and One Nights (978-3-8365-9563-6) de Noel Daniel (TASCHEN ) Comprar Libros de Literatura .Literatura en Inglés .. In the late 1910s, in a Europe ravaged by World War I, Danish illustrator Kay Nielsen put the finishing touches on his illustrations of A Thousand and One Nights. The results are considered masterpieces of early 20th-century illustration: bursting with sumptuous colors of deep blues, reds, and gold leaf, and evoking all the magic of this legendary collection of Indo-Persian and Arabic folktales, compiled between the 8th and 13th centuries. However, publishers retreated from Nielsen's project in the financially strapped postwar climate, and the publication never happened. A rising star, Nielsen moved on to other work. This world heritage classic's spectacular pen, ink, and watercolor images remained under lock and key for 40 years. Published just once in the 1970s, the illustrations were rescued from oblivion after Nielsen's death in 1957 and are now held by the UCLA Grunwald Center for the Graphic Arts at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, the Art Institute of Chicago, and in two private collections. This publication is a unique compilation of fine art prints and stunning illustrations reproduced directly from Nielsen's original watercolors--the only complete set of his extraordinary drawings to have survived. The book features descriptions of all of the images and three generously illustrated essays on the making of this series, the origin of Nielsen's unique imagery, and a history of the tales. In addition, it shows many unpublished or rarely seen artworks by Nielsen and intricate black-and-white drawings Nielsen created for the original publication. 0

Even amid the bombing raids inflicted on Milan, domus continued to publish through much of the war, charting the design zeitgeist, while managing a successive turnover of editors and editors-in-chief during Ponti's "interregnum" between 1941 and 1948. The pages from this period record reports and features on modern industrial design and furniture, new prefabricated houses, American academic architecture, the building projects of Carlo Mollino, Gian Luigi Banfi, Franco Albini, and Giuseppe Terragni, as well as the postwar flowering of Organic Design.003c/p003e003cp003e003c/p003e003cp003edomus distilled003c/p003e003cp003e003c/p003e003cp003eSeven volumes spanning 1928 to 1999003c/p003e003cp003eOver 4,000 pages featuring influential projects by the most important designers and architects003c/p003e003cp003eOriginal layouts and all covers, with captions providing navigation and context003c/p003e003cp003eIntroductory essays by renowned architects and designers003c/p003e003cp003eEach edition comes with an appendix featuring texts translated into English, many of which were previously only available in Italian003c/p003e003cp003eA comprehensive index in each volume listing both designers' and manufacturers' names003c/p003e 0
