Als in die Büroräume des Detektiv-Trios Walker, Wright & Ferguson eingebrochen wird, reißt der Sicherheitsalarm Emma Ferguson aus ihrer wohlverdienten Freitagnacht in einem Tanzclub in Soho. Dort angekommen findet Emma keine Spuren eines Einbruchs. Nur etwas fehlt: ein simples Foto, das für sie eine sentimentale Bedeutung hat. Dann taucht das Bild bei den privaten Dingen des rumänischen Menschenschleppers Ciprian Varga auf. Der wird des...

Giacometti and Frank Auerbach: Portraiture and the Pursuit of the Absolute
ISBN: 9781910110317 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 50 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this book, which compares and contrasts the work of these two exceptional artists, Edward Lucie-Smith examines the changed but still vital role of portraiture in the art of our time.It is particularly interesting that the upcoming exhibition of Giacometti's work at the National Portrait Gallery focuses on Giacometti's activity as a portraitist, in both painting and sculpture. It coincides with a major retrospective exhibition at Tate Britain of paintings by Frank Auerbach. Though Auerbach has tackled a range of other subjects, urban landscapes, interiors and nudes, he is perhaps best...

The Private John Singer Sargent
ISBN: 9781910110256 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this book Edward Lucie-Smith considers the achievement of John Singer Sargent in response to a new exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery in London. This exhibition features Sargent's more private works - images of friends, rather than portraits painted on commission. In many ways Sargent is an ambiguous figure. The child of wealthy expatriate American parents, he was brought up in Europe, at first made his career in France, then settled in Britain. Totally cosmopolitan, he kept his American nationality, painted many American sitters, but never lived for any extended period of time in...

Rembrandt and Turner: Mythical Masters
ISBN: 9781910110133 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A study of the masters Rembrandt van Rijn and JMW Turner exhibited at Tate Britain and the National Gallery London. The point is that Rembrandt and Turner (plus, with perhaps more reason,Titian and Michelangelo, who both lived to be much older than Rembrandt ) are regularly cited as artists who developed 'late styles', which have since been regarded as proof of superior genius. The idea evolved in Germany at the beginning of the 20th century. It was at that time that the term 'Alterstil' - 'old age style' was coined in German. There is an excellent discussion of this in the first chapter of...

Goya: Between Two Worlds
ISBN: 9781910110270 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 50 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Goya - the Witches and Old Women Album', now on view at the Courtauld Gallery in London, is fascinating for many reasons. It is a brilliant example of painstaking detective work. The long separated drawings of this album, which dates from 1819-23, have been brought together in their original sequence. Only one sheet, out of 23, now appears to be missing. It also represents a bridge between once traditional ideas about art and those we have now. Some of its roots are in the long-established tradition of personal caricature, and the related tradition of grotesque genre portraits of the poor and...
