100 MASTERPIECES IN DETAIL (BIBLIOTHECA)
Guiding our eye to the minutiae of subject and symbolism, authors Rose-Marie and Rainer Hagen allow even the most familiar of pictures to come alive anew through their intricacies and intrigues. Is the bride pregnant? Why does the man wear a beret? How does the shadow of war hang over a scene of dancing? Along the way, we travel from Ancient Egypt through to modern Europe, from the Renaissance to the Roaring Twenties. We meet Greek heroes and poor German poets and roam from cathedrals to cabaret bars, from the Garden of Eden to a Garden Bench in rural France.

A 1000 X BETTER. A REBEL BY DESIGN
Up-and-coming interior designer Kirsten Blazek, known for her focus on sustainability and mixing vintage with contemporary pieces, shares inspiration for creating an authentic and livable home.
Blazek’s company, A 1000 X Better, takes a holistic approach to design, prioritizing individuality while also emphasizing sustainability, from repurposing existing pieces and materials to sourcing eco-friendly products. Her interiors combine contemporary design elements with vintage pieces, resulting in a modern and warm sensibility.
In this book, Blazek breaks down her design philosophy into chapters that help us to articulate what we’re looking for and show us how we can create spaces that are comfortable, stylish, and personal: “Find Your Unique,” “A Reflection of You,” and “Every Home Wants to Be Heard.” Blazek reveals her favorite interiors while sharing her fundamental design elements: color theory, layering of texture and pattern, and the importance of art and personally meaningful objects.
The result is a range of interiors and styles, illustrating how these elements might be translated into our own spaces. Blazek’s blend of traditional and contemporary design along with personal and custom touches results in the type of inviting and livable spaces that we all aspire to.

AN ENGLISH VISION
This is the first of Pentreath’s books to present his own output in its entirety—from his personal residences in Dorset, London, and Scotland that brought him international fame to many old and new houses that he has designed and some of the larger, town-scaled projects that make his practice unique in the world of traditional design. Although the results range from his colorful and romantic versions of the English country cottage to traditional splendor, there are underlying ideas that inform the breadth of his output—a sense of scale, proportion, craft, detail, sustainability, and appropriateness—that have a universal relevance today.

ANDY WARHOL AND FRIENDS
In 1965, Steve Schapiro started documenting Andy Warhol for LIFE magazine: Warhol was cementing a reputation as an important Pop artist who drew his inspiration from popular culture and commercial objects. With his sunglasses, blond wig, and bland public utterances, Warhol was enigmatic, charismatic, intensely ambitious, and aware that to become a star, you needed the presence of people to document your ascent. Schapiro, also ambitious and hardworking, who in his own words “kept quiet and smiled a lot,” was an ideal witness to Warhol’s relentless rise from cult New York artist to 20th-century icon. Ironically, LIFE never published the story, so many of these images are seen here for the first time, scanned from negatives found deep in Schapiro’s archive.

Known for his unique images of architecture and interiors, Polidori exquisitely captures the process and inner workings of the arrival, set-up, and display of the artworks.

ATLAS MUNDIAL DEL STREET ART
Este histórico estudio del street art internacional se sitúa en el punto en el que confluyen el arte y el atlas. Organizado por continentes y ciudades (desde Nueva York, Los Ángeles y Montreal, en Angloamérica, pasando por Ciudad de México y Buenos Aires, en Iberoamérica, hasta Londres, Berlín y Madrid, en Europa, así como Sídney y Tokio, en el Pacífico), se presentan los perfiles de más de cien de los artistas más importantes de la actualidad y más de setecientas asombrosas obras de arte. Un testimonio de cómo este variado movimiento artístico contemporáneo se ha convertido en un auténtico fenómeno global: se narra la evolución del arte urbano en cada región y se proporciona un contexto histórico esencial. Desde su génesis en la Costa Este de Estados Unidos a finales de la década de 1960, el street art y el grafiti han viajado a casi todos los rincones del planeta y han dado lugar a nuevos estilos muy floridos y dinámicos. Al exponer sus obras en la galería más grande y abierta del mundo, los grafiteros y artistas urbanos muestran sus creaciones a un público que no puede evitarlas, con lo que desafían las ideas convencionales sobre el lugar del arte en la vida cotidiana. Desde Steve Powers (ESPO), en Nueva York, hasta Ian Strange, en Australia, pasando por el Londres de Eine, el París transfigurado por Honet y OX, y los gigantescos murales de los brasileños Os Gêmeos, esta es la primera historia genuinamente geográfica de esta forma de arte.

BAGLIETTO THE ART OF YACHTING SINCE 1854
Where does craftsmanship end and art begin? What makes something a product, a brand impervious to time and fashions? These are the questions posed while strolling between the past and the present of Baglietto, the Italian shipyard that has been building world-class yachts for 170 years.
Success is not built in an instant. Being good, looking to the future, imposing a style that lasts over time is the gamble every entrepreneur takes. There are not many who succeed, which is why those who reach the age of 170 deserve to be studied, as well as celebrated. Baglietto is now a kind of great international club, access to which serves the right mix of passion for the sea, refined taste for boats that is never over-the-top but rather soberly chic, and, of course, the right spending capacity for objects that cost.

BOSCH (40TH) (GB)

From the outset, the concept developed by Stefano Boeri for a residential building in 2004 proved to be forward-looking as it anticipated the new frontiers of urban living. Ten years after its inauguration, the Bosco Verticale (Vertical Forest) has kept all its promises and launched a new way of imagining contemporary cities.
This book celebrates an architectural work that has become the symbol of a renewed collective sensibility toward care for the environment and the plant world. Edited by Stefano Boeri Architetti, it traces its entire history. “The Bosco Verticale is one of the few ‘living’ buildings whose life is still followed ten years later.” This was the inspiration behind the editorial structure of the volume, which is formed of three sections that evoke the growth of a tree: roots, trunk, and branches and leaves.

Relojes mecánicos, cronógrafos, de buceo y de cuarzo: un recorrido por la historia de la relojería a través de 90 modelos emblemáticos. * Desde los primeros relojes de pulsera hasta los relojes de cuarzo, todos tienen un interés histórico, mecánico o meramente estético. * Un viaje a través de las épocas y las diferentes complicaciones de la relojería. Siglos, incluso milenios, de innovación técnica han llevado a la creación de los relojes tal y como los conocemos hoy. Complejos y estéticos, son obra de artesanos muy cualificados y con un saber hacer excepcional. Pero ¿qué sentido tienen los relojes mecánicos en la era de los smartwatches? ¿Por qué nos fascinan? Tal vez sea porque, junto con la ropa, son los objetos más íntimos de nuestras vidas. Quizá también sea porque algunos han protagonizado extraordinarias aventuras humanas. Acaso porque otros nunca habrían visto la luz sin la perseverancia y la imaginación de grandes personalidades. ¿Somos realmente los dueños de un reloj o nos limitamos a transmitírselo a las generaciones venideras? Pese a las cicatrices que el tiempo les haya dejado, la mayoría de los modelos que figuran en este libro nos sobrevivirán. De hecho, la mayoría de ellos son relojes antiguos, con pátina, oxidados, imperfectos, simplemente vividos.

COUNTRY HOUSE LIVING
Following her success with Nora Murphy’s Country House Style, Murphy celebrates a selection of homes and their homeowners, each exemplifying a different style.
For Nora Murphy, a country house isn’t so much a place as it is a state of mind. A country house is warm, welcoming—at once down to earth, yet elegant. A country house has genuine character, tells a story, and is truly, wonderfully lived in. Here Murphy explores the tenets of country house style, as illustrated by her own “new” country house, and the many other striking homes she has curated for the book. Each one of these homeowners has embraced country house style—but each implements it in their own unique way. There is a pastoral 1732 center-chimney colonial in Connecticut nestled in spectacular gardens, a cozy cottage on the coast of Maine rich with local details, and an 1840s Greek Revival in the Hudson Valley filled with romantic Victorian ephemera. Common threads weave through the stories: the thrill of the antiques hunt, the role of history, and the priority of comfort.

DAR FORMA A LO COTIDIANO
“Las cuestiones de la conciencia de la forma, la belleza y la armonía no me interesan tanto a nivel abstracto como en la medida que afectan a la vida cotidiana y en relación con el arte de vivir. La vida cotidiana, si nos fijamos en las teorías orientales del arte, es un aspecto central del camino del artista.” Como en el arte o en el diseño, carecer de forma implica dispersión y pérdida de referencias, quedar expuesto a los fenómenos externos sin ritmo ni control. Dar forma a lo cotidiano es una invitación a poner en valor nuestra realidad tangible y manejable, a trabajar la atención plena sobre las cuestiones básicas que rigen nuestra cotidianidad ―la alimentación, el amor, los medios de comunicación, la vestimenta y nuestras posesiones― y conectar con ellas de forma consciente, limitando sus contornos y encontrando su lugar en la red que conforma nuestro fundamento vital.

DAVID BAILEY. EIGHTIES
In the 1980, fashion wanted to make a statement and found in legendary British fashion photographer David Bailey its perfect chronicler. After Bailey shaped the style of the Swinging Sixties, fashion in the eighties posed a new challenge: brighter colours, higher glamour, statuesque models, extreme makeup, spandex, lycra, jumpsuits, power dressing, big hair, and as Grace Coddington puts it in her introduction, “jackets with padded shoulders over the shortest mini-skirts and dangerously high-heeled shoes.”

DURER (BA-ART) (GB)
A polymath of the German Renaissance, Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528) was a prolific artist, theorist, and writer whose works explored everything from religion to art theory to philosophy.

EL ARTE DE LA ADAPTACION
Linda Seger explica con claridad cómo adaptar al cine una novela, una obra de teatro o una historia real, y da solución a los problemas más comunes.
Las adaptaciones cinematográficas son, desde hace mucho tiempo, el principal soporte de la industria de Hollywood y de las cadenas de televisión norteamericanas. Además, la mayoría de las cintas que han ganado el Oscar a la mejor película han sido adaptaciones de novelas, obras de teatro o historias reales. Linda Seger, autora de varios libros ya clásicos sobre escritura de guiones, ofrece ahora un manual valioso y completo para guionistas, productores y realizadores que quieran adaptar obras y acontecimientos a la pantalla.
Junto a cómo analizar este material y evaluar su potencial como película, Seger proporciona un método práctico para trasladar al cine la historia, los personajes, los temas y el estilo. La última parte aborda también las cuestiones legales de toda adaptación, las posibilidades de opción sobre una obra y la protección de los derechos como guionista o productor.

EL GENIO DE EISENSTEIN
Tras los libros de Paulino Viota sobre Ford y Godard, aparecidos en esta misma colección, ha llegado el momento de homenajear al autor y hombre de cine en su faceta de profesor, un docente carismático, divertido, profundo, que penetra junto a sus alumnos en la historia del cine como en un refugio cotidiano desde el que contemplar el mundo y afilar la imaginación. Se transcriben aquí (salvando, en la medida de lo posible, la singularidad de la palabra y la teatralidad de los gestos de aquel contexto privilegiado) las cinco clases de un curso de 2012 sobre la teoría del cine de Eisenstein impartido en la Filmoteca de Santander, en las que asistimos a la paulatina clarificación del complejo pensamiento de uno de los mayores cineastas que han existido, a su vez principal teórico del montaje desde sus posibilidades rítmicas, plásticas y orgánicas, a sus capacidades relacionales, afectivas e intelectuales. Pero El genio de Eisenstein es mucho más que el trazo de un curso o la memoria compartida de la enseñanza de un experto, ya que Viota, para paliar la ausencia de las proyecciones de fragmentos fílmicos que interrumpían el flujo de las explicaciones, ha completado un exigente apartado de análisis y descripciones (que diseccionan los momentos álgidos de la obra del director de El acorazado Potemkin o las secuencias de otras películas traídas a colación, como el inolvidable «camino hasta el beso» de Recuerda de Hitchcock), lo que supone su mayor aportación hasta la fecha a la obra del venerado artista soviético.

EL TIGRE Y LA GUITARRA
El tigre y la guitarra es la historia de Yoichiro Yamada, un japonés que vino a España para ser guitarrista flamenco y jamás regresó a su país. Terminó abducido por dos mundos idílicos y en principio opuestos: el del flamenco que amaba y el de los samuráis de los que era descendiente. En su deriva no supo encontrar la salida a su propio laberinto. «¡Vuelve a casa!», le pedían sus amigos. Pero se negaba: no podía regresar porque no se había convertido en el guitarrista que soñó. El tigre y la guitarra nos habla del choque de universos paralelos, de pasiones y de obsesiones, pero también de hasta dónde nos arrastran nuestros pensamientos, del fracaso y de cómo los sueños que perseguimos pueden acabar persiguiéndonos.

EMBRACING BEAUTY. SERENE SPACES
Inspired by her previous experience as an art dealer, Webb designs beautifully composed spaces. She believes in the power of light, and shadow, in creating atmosphere; a pale, luminous wallcovering may be balanced by the presence of antiques, or a chapel-like white bedroom may segue into a deep gray sitting room. As important is a sense of hand: the feeling of glazed earthenware, a worn oak farm table, the softness of fine linen. Webb is also motivated by the pursuit of joy and the power of beauty she makes sure these are rooms for living, for gathering with family, for refuge.

ESPAÑA ABANDONADA
Barren red deserts dotted with post-colonial ghost towns, dilapidated inner city factories, discarded country homesteads and a succession of dormant, soot-filled power stations are just a handful of the desolate, yet visually rich narratives that form part of the abandoned Australia landscape.
Digging beneath the sun-baked soil, Shane Thoms uncovers the modern ruins scattered over this arid continent and reveals a series of beautifully broken abodes hiding in the crevices of the Great Southern Land.
Whispering of both long-gone happy family moments and human darkness, of working lives and the everyday pursuits of living, these atmospheric scenes allow us to reconstruct the stories of the past. Prompting conversations about a growing, diverse country with a complicated history, these abandoned places both connect as well as contrast the past and the present and chronicle the hidden remnants of the evolving Australian story.

EUGENE ATGET, PARIS (BU) (INT)
A flâneur and photographer at once, Eugène Atget (1857–1927) was obsessed with walking the streets. After trying his hand at painting and acting, the native of Libourne turned to photography and moved to Paris. He supplied studies for painters, architects, and stage designers, but became enraptured by what he called “documents” of the city and its environs. His scenes rarely included people, but rather the architecture, landscape, and artifacts that made up the societal and cultural stage.

FALLINGWATER. LIVING WITH AND IN ART
Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for Edgar Kaufmann Sr., his wife, Liliane Kaufmann, and their son, Edgar Kaufmann jr., Fallingwater is lauded for its architectural daring and drama. Here the Kaufmanns sought to live in harmony with the natural world. The rooms of the house reflect this ideal and remain suffused with a natural aesthetic that embraces stone and wood, handwork and craftsmanship. In the living room, the great stone floor flows riverlike toward the horizon of Wright–designed built-in sofas and large-paned casement windows, where views open to balconies, to forest, and to cascading falls. From here “the hatch” opens to the flowing stream below. Pools and the waters of Bear Run were beautiful and for swimming. Relaxed elegance was the order of the day. Delicacy, softness, tactility are everywhere in evidence.

FASHION FIRST
A fashion icon in her own right, Keaton amusingly revisits and reflects on some of her favorite and not-so-favorite fashion moments over the decades, from childhood homemade outfits to red carpet ensembles and street style experiments she tried from the 1960s until today.
Since she could remember, Keaton has been fascinated by clothing and style. As a little girl, she would pick out patterns and request that her mother make her custom outfits. This was the beginning of a love affair with clothes and looks, and sometimes, fashion. From the outset of her acting career in the 1970s, the legendary star has experimented and thought outside the lines of what a Hollywood icon should wear and still became lauded as a style icon by Vogue, W, The Hollywood Reporter, and countless fashion websites. Keaton’s style is at once timeless, experimental, bold, effortless, androgynous, quirky, and utterly and distinctly her own.

FEELS LIKE HOME RELAXED INTERIORS
Explore the emotional connection that a home can have to a person’s life with Feels Like Home from Lauren Liess, the TV and social media star and author of Habitat and Down to Earth
A house is a feeling. That is the conceit behind designer Lauren Liess’s third book, which explores the emotional connection between the way we decorate our homes and our daily lives.
She advises readers to think beyond just the objects in their homes and explore how design informs an intentional, happy, and authentic life.
The book includes practical design information, with never-before-seen case studies on a variety of homes including a farmhouse, a home in the woods, a Spanish colonial, and other more traditional homes. Each case study explores a hardworking design aspect (such as proportion, scale, and color), while also focusing on the emotional aspect of the home.
With chapters inspired by the themes of comfort, calm, excitement, belonging, carefree, love, and contentment, Feels Like Home provides inspiration while also serving as a beautiful object itself.

FLUID A FASHION REVOLUTION
Influential designer Harris Reed explores the world of gender-defying fashion in this richly illustrated monograph.
In Fluid, revolutionary fashion designer Harris Reed introduces the world to a new era in fluid fashion. At the center of Reed’s sartorial journey has always been his desire to change the way people express their identities through clothing. Fluidity’s essence is adaptable, evolutionary, and dynamic, and Reed’s work constantly disrupts the divide between men’s and women’s clothing.
Reed’s pieces have been worn by Harry Styles, Adele, Sam Smith, Iman, and Beyoncé, and with each piece, he has generated an instantly iconic cultural moment, pushing conversations about gender expression into the mainstream. Fluid examines historical antecedents of fluidity, questions old power structures, and urges people to find their authentic selves in this new avenue of fashion.
With stunning color photography, resplendent fashion, and illustrations of Harris’s design process, Fluid takes readers beyond the idea of clothes as mere garments, positing that clothes are a nexus of art, philosophy, and history that can be used to help shape our culture and challenge understandings of gender. With this book, Reed affirms that fluid is the future of fashion.

FREE JAZZ
En 1959 tres álbumes fundamentales de Miles Davis, John Coltrane y Ornette Coleman llevaron a sus últimas posibilidades el jazz de su época, frente al que surgiría el free jazz.
Este nuevo estilo musical exacerbaba la negritud, rescataba las raíces africanas, explotaba la ancestral polirritmia y al mismo tiempo conectaba con las vanguardias artísticas de su tiempo, generando un tipo de improvisación nunca oído hasta entonces. Era un jazz más radical, tanto en lo musical como en lo político. Los músicos que lo abrazaron eran exploradores de nuevas sonoridades, que podían resultar ásperas y violentas. Era el sonido de la libertad.

G: FOREVER GREEN A CELEBRATION OF NATURE
An exuberant celebration of the color green—in nature, art, interiors, and design.
Green is like water: it is everywhere, and we can’t live without it. Green is the color of nature and the environment. Green is life. Interior designer and style guru Carlos Mota has such a passion for green that he has now devoted an entire book to it. G: Forever Green celebrates the color in all its manifold manifestations: in nature, food, fashion, jewelry, art, interiors, and architecture.
From the brilliant markings on a butterfly’s wings to the feathers of a tropical bird’s breast, from Magritte’s oversized apple to the brocade drapery in the background of a Holbein portrait, from a leafy arbor to a leafy wallpaper, from celadon to forest to emerald to acid to lime to Kelly, the variety is astounding. Illustrated with Mota’s own photographs, taken as he has traveled the world, as well as images by prominent photographers, G: Forever Green features rooms by notable designers, among them Kelly Wearstler, Alessandra Branca, Mark D. Sikes, Robert Couturier, Gert Voorjans, and Nicky Haslam.
This stunning volume, superbly produced with a green metallic edge stain, is a testament to the power of green to soothe, inspire, and excite.

GEORGE HARRISON
Pese a ser aclamado como uno de los mejores guitarristas de su época y de la historia, George Harrison luchó contra sentimientos de inferioridad, especialmente en sus primeras décadas. A menudo era el blanco de las bromas de sus compañeros de banda debido a su origen de clase baja y, por lo general, no se le permitía contribuir más que con una o dos canciones por álbum de las decenas que escribía.
Ahora, el aclamado biógrafo de los Beatles, Philip Norman, examina a Harrison a través de la lente de sus numerosas contradicciones. Comparado con las enormes luminarias compositoras Lennon y McCartney, se le consideraba un talento menor; sin embargo, compuso obras maestras como «While My Guitar Gently Weeps» o «Here Comes the Sun», y su triple álbum de debut en solitario All Things Must Pass consiguió un inmenso éxito, apareciendo en muchas listas de los 100 mejores álbumes de rock de todos los tiempos. Los críticos de música moderna lo sitúan en el panteón de los dioses de la guitarra de los años sesenta, junto a Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Keith Richards y Jimmy Page.

GUY BOURDIN FOR CHARLES JOURDAN
A giant of modern fashion photography, Bourdin lent his surrealist eye to the shoes and fashions of Charles Jourdan. Creating compositions full of movement, color, and sensuality, this pioneering collaboration between designer and photographer still exerts a profound influence on modern fashion photography.
The late 1960s saw some of the most dynamic periods in French fashion. And the union between Bourdin and Jourdan captured the spirit of the moment unlike any other creative partnership of the era. Jourdan, a polymath who occupied the office of both couturier and shoe designer, tapped Bourdin, a true surrealist among the fashion photographers of the age, and engaged in a creative dialogue through to Jourdan’s passing in 1976.

HADID (40TH ) (INT)
Zaha Hadid (1950 - 2016) was a revolutionary architect. For years, she was widely acclaimed and won numerous prizes despite building practically nothing. Some even said her work was simply impossible to build. Yet, during the latter years of her life, Hadid’s daring visions became a reality, bringing a new and unique architectural language to cities and structures such as the Port House in Antwerp, the Al Janoub Stadium near Doha, Qatar, and the spectacular new airport terminal in Beijing.
By her untimely death in 2016, Hadid was firmly established among architecture’s finest elite, working on projects in Europe, China, the Middle East, and the United States. She was the first female architect to win both the Pritzker Prize for architecture and the prestigious RIBA Royal Gold Medal, with her long-time Partner Patrik Schumacher now the leader of Zaha Hadid Architects and in charge of many new projects.

HISTORIA DE LAS BANDAS SONORAS
En el imaginario del cine, la banda sonora a menudo había sido considerada un arte mayúsculo, pero secundario. Hoy, en cambio, es un género musical que levanta pasiones. No obstante, su historia sigue siendo muy poco conocida. * Desde las películas de la edad de oro de Hollywood hasta el cine más premiado o el más innovador de nuestros días, compositores como Bernard Herrmann, John Barry, Henry Mancini, Ennio Morricone, Alberto Iglesias, Alexandre Desplat o Jonny Greenwood han sabido entender a Hitchcock, Fellini, Godard, Almodóvar, Tarantino o Jane Campion y ofrecerles la banda sonora de sus sueños. Apoyada en algunos documentos gráficos de sus películas, esta es la historia de una música que nos encanta. "A menudo uso las mismas armonías que la música pop porque la complejidad de lo que hago está en otra parte. La música necesita una sala para respirar".

This book traces a persistent vein of intriguing, often disconcerting, imagery over the career of renowned artist Jamie Wyeth (b. 1946), famous for his hyperrealist paintings of farm animals and Maine lighthouses. The focus in this volume is on the chilling thread that runs through his work, present but not overwhelming, and ever-evolving with his style and subjects. Whether he is introducing curious characters or surveying strange landscapes, Wyeth is at home with uneasy subjects and a master of the unsettled mood

JAPAN 1900. A PORTRAIT IN COLOR (INT)
The Golden Age of Travel neatly overlaps with the reign of the Emperor Meiji, which began in 1868 with the overthrow of a feudal order that had kept Japan secluded from the outside world for more than 200 years. In the ensuing four-and-a-half decades, Japan became a less remote and more attractive destination for the international traveler and a popular subject for photographers, both Japanese and foreign.

JEAN-LUC GODARD
Casi las mismas decadas de insumisión y rebeldía que ha protagonizado Godard con su vida y obra lleva Paulino Viota estudiando ambas, desde el apasionamiento cinefilo y la devoción inteligente que siente por "el cineasta con mayor riqueza estructural de la historial del cine". Dividido en dos grandes bloques, este ensayo magistral y ya definitivo tras la reciente desaparición del cineasta pone en perspectiva todas las etapas de su mítica carrera, que arranca con la irreverente modernidad de los años 60, atraviesa la militancia política y el utópico deseo de fusión en lo colectivo, y desemboca, rayando el nuevo milenio y como colofón a una duradera y profunda reflexión sobre la mediación tecnológica, en ese estilo inimitable donde lo poetico acontece como posibilidad de una simultaneidad inedita entre imágenes y sonidos, materiales ya convertidos en "formas que piensan" la historia del cine y la del siglo XX, como ejemplifica a la perfección una de sus cimas, "Histoire(s) du cinema".

KAHLO, PAINTINGS (40TH) (GB)
Among the few women artists who have transcended art history, none had a meteoric rise quite like Mexican painter Frida Kahlo (1907–1954). Her unmistakable face, depicted in over fifty extraordinary self-portraits, has been admired by generations; along with hundreds of photographs taken by notable artists such as Manuel and Lola Álvarez Bravo, Nickolas Muray, and Martin Munkácsi, they made Frida Kahlo an iconic image of 20th century art.After an accident in her early youth, Frida became a painter of her own free will. Her marriage to Diego Rivera in 1929 placed her at the forefront of an artistic scene not only in the cultural Renaissance of Mexico, but also in the United States. Her work garnered praise from the poet André Breton, who added the Mexican painter to the ranks of international surrealism and exhibited her work in Paris in 1939 to the admiration of Picasso, Kandinsky, and Duchamp.We access the intimacy of Frida’s affections and passions through a selection of drawings, pages from her personal diary, and an extensive illustrated biography featuring photos of Frida, Diego, and the Casa Azul, Frida’s home and the center of her universe.This book allows readers to admire Frida Kahlo’s paintings like never before, including unprecedented detail shots and famous photographs. It presents pieces in private collections and reproduces works that were previously lost or have not been exhibited for more than 80 years.

KIRSTEN FLAGSTAFF. LA VOZ DEL SIGLO
Los críticos musicales de la época describieron la voz de la soprano noruega Kirsten Flagstad como la luz del sol que incide sobre la cúspide de una montaña coronada por un glaciar. Jessye Norman la asemejó al oro líquido sobre terciopelo negro, mientras que Elisabeth Schwarzkopf percibió que tenía la dimensión de una madre cósmica que abraza el universo.
