    José Herrera (Hardback)
    José Herrera (Hardback)
    The Spanish painter José Herrera,(Madrid 1943), whose works can be found all over the world, is celebrating his fiftieth anniversary of being an artist with this publication containing images that are representative of his entire oeuvre. The influence of cubism is still perceptible in his earlier work, although it has been modelled and reduced to recognisable proportions. Inspired by his illustrious predecessors Picasso and Dali, he soon developed a highly individual style - surrealistic and colourful with undeniably Spanish traits. His later work is more figurative, but he is not a precision painter who aspires to create a lifelike representation of the world. His figures - predominantly women, either naked or clothed in dazzling garments - exude the same sense of pride and dynamism expressed in the dances of men and women in the flamenco cellars of Seville. José occasionally uses just one colour or shade in his work in which the accent is placed fully on the sober portrayal of the

    Renato Nicolodi. Ni Co Lo Di (Hardback)
    Renato Nicolodi. Ni Co Lo Di (Hardback)
    Renato Nicolodi seeks to evoke a universal sacrality in his work. His sculptures and paintings imagine spaces with corridors and stairs leading to closed-off passageways. Light and shade draw the gaze of the spectator to the inside of the construction, which remains invisible. The core of the work seems to conserve some sort of emptiness. The artist refers to archetypical buildings from past times and cultures, stripping them of their original function, ornament, and dogma. This special second-edition monograph showcases a comprehensive selection of Nicolodi's oeuvre, presenting his work in the most compelling way to date.

    Christian Hack - Heptagonal Sculptures (Hardback)
    Christian Hack - Heptagonal Sculptures (Hardback)
    Even in his early work, which I first experienced when I visited his studio in 1994, you can find the origin for what are now his actual heptagonal sculptures (seven sided). To develop an artist's own distinct signature is a lifelong process and has many forks in the road. Christian Hack's determination to find his way is both, relentless and admirable. This book shows an incredibly creative and energetic sculptor who has found his 'voice' and is not about to stop. Looking at his work in Plexiglass which he made during his studies at the renowned Folkwang Schule in Essen, Germany (1971-1976), you can see his initial fascination with light and reflection. Now, his current polished stainless steel sculptures can be aesthetically pleasing and at the same time reflecting our surroundings and playing with our own reflections. His work in the nineties in bronze and cast-iron would prove to be invaluable for his later understanding of material, surface and reflection. It taught him how to

This dozens of objects and sculptures collected together in this publication reveal the vision and creative process that formed one of the most important innovators of modern sculpture. The selected works illustrate how the choice of materials shaped the form, dimensions and subjects of his sculptures.Text in English and Dutch.

    Johan De Wilde. Hands of time (Paperback)
    Johan De Wilde. Hands of time (Paperback)
    Five years on and the acclaimed Hands of Time has a sequel entitled Hands of Time - Plein été. The second part is an overview of drawings and other works from the period 2012 to 2017 and follows on seamlessly from the first. Johan De Wilde's work seems if ever that is possible, to have become even more intense and his drawing style to explore new layers. The drawings can be seen as the work of a human printer (man created the computer in his own image). They are built up like paintings: a labor-intensive process, layer upon layer of horizontal and vertical lines interwoven with a form, a figure. It is as if he is drawing the canvas on which he paints with his pencils. Johan De Wilde draws real-time on a scale of 1:1. While his and our time slip by, lines appear, which is another reason why almost every drawing is given the title History + a number. Vita brevis, ars longa.

    A Man Waiting (Hardback)
    A Man Waiting (Hardback)
    Axel van der Kraan has a less than optimistic view of humans and civilisation. He is fascinated by power and bureaucracy and the absurdity of routines and rules that sometimes seem to oppress people more than help them. The artist sees the world as an “unfocused, absurd, and aimless battleground”. His sculptures, however, are characterised by a high degree of inventiveness in their construction and use of materials. New, recognisable images are created from discarded household appliances and machines; a waste bin becomes the body of a soldier and a sink the gun turret of a tank. This book examines his body of work since 1985, including assemblages, rubbings, and woodcuts.

    Gabo. Portrait of a Sculpture / Portret van een sculptuur (Hardback)
    Gabo. Portrait of a Sculpture / Portret van een sculptuur (Hardback)
    GABO: Portrait of a Sculpture focuses on one artwork: Gabo's sculpture for department store De Bijenkorf on the Coolsingel in Rotterdam. The spatial construction from 1957 and the artworks by Zadkine and Henry Moore are seen as the three key works of Rotterdam's unique international collection called Sculpture International Rotterdam. The history of this untitled sculpture by Gabo is interwoven with the history of the city in many ways. The immediate reason for the publication is the recently completed and long-awaited restoration of the work. The book examines the sculpture from many angles: the history of the sculpture then and now as well as its relationship to the city of Rotterdam, the sculpture in relation to Gabo's thinking and oeuvre, and the restoration and the changing meaning of the sculpture in the public space.

    Life-Size Bust Horus by Miyo Nakamura 80 cm
    Life-Size Bust Horus by Miyo Nakamura 80 cm
    Horus is one of the great deities of ancient Egypt, typically figuring as a falcon or a falcon-headed man. Egyptians viewed Horus as the protector of the Pharaoh and the ruler of the gods. The Eye of Horus is an ancient Egyptian symbol of protection and of royal power from the deities.Now, the artists at ECC are turning toward ancient mythology and reimagining these characters. Combining a fascination with the natural world, the intricacies of geometric design, heroic tales of gods and monsters, and a passion for the human form and the Classical Style, the Horus bust is one of the most carefully yet subtly conceived sculptures ECC has created to date.The Horus is the third character designed and created by Miyo Nakamura for ECC's Myth line, succeeding the ECC Anubis. Here is what Miyo had to say about the process:''Having the opportunity to sculpt Horus was a special moment of synchronicity. As falcons flew above me, I knew I wanted to connect with him next. His hood of Lapis Lazuli re…

    Carel de Moor 1655-1738 (Hardback)
    Carel de Moor (1655-1738). His Life and Work, a monograph and œuvre catalogue, is the first scholarly study of one of the most important Dutch portrait painters of his time. The book includes a comprehensive biography, which explores Carel de Moor's life and multi-faceted career within the context of the economic, political, and social history of the Dutch Republic. As a result of the authors' thorough investigation of De Moor's client networks, several hitherto unknown sitters have now been identified; other sitters have been provided with new identities. The Catalogue Raisonné, arranged chronologically within the categories of portraits, history, pastoral scenes, genre and still life, allows us to view De Moor's œuvre in its totality, to compare his work with that of his predecessors and contemporaries, and to evaluate the development of his artistic style. Given that De Moor's career mostly took place in the eighteenth century, this publication also adds significantly to the corpus

    Guido Geelen (Hardback)
    Guido Geelen (Hardback)
    Guido Geelen (Thorn, 1961) adopts a unique stance as sculptor. His unorthodox outlook on the use of materials such as clay (ceramics), bronze, iron, aluminium, glass and textiles is linked with an iconography of recognizable contemporary and classical images. In 2000 a book containing a complete view of Guido Geelen's work, spanning the period 1986 - 2000, was published when he received the Dr. A.H. Heineken Prize for Art. This second survey, spanning the period 2000 - 2022, gives consideration to this autonomous work and his commisioned work, to museum presentations and to his work in the public domain.

    Productomschrijving

    The artist José Vermeersch (1922-1997) is known for his ceramic sculptures of heterogeneous figures. Yet he was a painter, weaver and designer too, who created a rich oeuvre imbued with his passion for people, animals and life. This book pays tribute to the genesis of Vermeersch' figurative work and uses around a hundred sculptures and paintings to show the exceptional way in which his pictorial and his ceramic work are interwoven. The indeterminate and non-binary character of Vermeersch' oeuvre - from gender to species (human/animal) - is explored in depth along with ideas such as sustainability and fragility.
