Whether a brand-new country estate, a renovation of a triplex penthouse apartment, or a merging of two townhouses into one, each of the 20 projects in this sumptuously illustrated volume bears the hallmarks of Peter Pennoyer Architects’ work: skillful adaptation of the principles of classical architecture, sophisticated use of details and materials, and insistence on meticulous craftsmanship, resulting in a balance of comfort, beauty, and luxury. The firm’s architects worked with exceptional interior designers, including Katie Ridder, Miles Redd, Steven Gambrel, and Jacques Grange, to create these residences, and though all are grounded in the classical tradition, each is singularly tailored to its location and the individual taste of the client.
With an authoritative text by architectural historian Anne Walker and hundreds of specially commissioned full-color photographs, site plans, and floor plans throughout, Peter Pennoyer Architects: City and Country showcases residential architecture at its finest.
Si bien es reconocido mundialmente como uno de los grandes novelistas del género histórico, y especialmente marítimo, Patrick O’Brian fue, en realidad, un gran contador de historias.
Publicada por primera vez en 1976, es ésta una biografía completa, exhaustiva, pero a la vez profundamente personal del gran pintor que fue Pablo Picasso, y la única que ha sabido apreciar plenamente los orígenes mediterráneos del carácter y el arte del artista.
Todo en Picasso, excepto su estatura física, era de una escala enorme. Jamás ningún pintor fue tan asombrosamente productivo y con tanta calidad; y tampoco ninguno consiguió ganar tanto dinero en vida con su obra. Nadie puede rivalizar con él en el interés del público, siempre ávido e insaciable. Y Patrick O’Brian, amigo personal de Picasso, lo conocía lo suficientemente bien como para captar la esencia real de su personalidad.
Berggruen’s collection with more than one hundred masterpieces is a spectacular tribute to the foresight of this major player in the Paris art market during the second half of the twentieth century. Born into a Jewish family in Berlin in 1914, he went into exile in California on the eve of World War II. He became art critic for the San Francisco Chronicle and assistant to the director of the San Francisco MoMA. After the war, Berggruen returned to Europe, first to Munich as a journalist, then to Paris where he worked at the UNESCO headquarters before becoming an art dealer specialized in the graphic arts of modern artists. He quickly established contacts within the Parisian cultural scene, meeting both the artists he would represent and the poets, dealers, historians, critics, and collectors of the day. Guided by his personal tastes, he built a solid collection of twentieth-century works now housed at the Neue Nationalgalerie Berlin spanning the careers of Pablo Picasso and Paul Klee and including Henri Matisse’s collages and Alberto Giacometti’s sculptures. The vast ensemble was exhibited at the Orangerie in 2024 and is housed in the Berggruen Museum/Neue Nationalgalerie Berlin.
