‎Urban Practices. Repopulating the Ancient City‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Paperback, xii + 172 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:73 b/w, 1 col., 1 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503584614.‎

‎Summary Cities in the ancient world, much like in the modern era, were not simply a locus for population and a hub for social, cultural, and economic activity, but were themselves the products of urban practices. This volume draws together two often disparate fields - urban space and human practice - to explore the actors and actions that underpinned ancient cities and to offer unique insights into the lives of those who dwelt there. Placing particular emphasis on social practice theory, the contributions gathered together in this book seek to analyse the development of the city, especially public urban spaces, from the archaic period up to Roman Imperial times. A key focus is on infrastructure, public spaces used for politics (particularly the Forum Romanum), and the role of sanctuaries and the way in which they were shaped by cult activity. Through this unique approach, this volume is able, for the first time, to bring the inhabitants of ancient cities to the fore, and in doing so, to offer key insights into the development of spatial routines, the interaction of these routines with the material setting of a city, and the way in which cities themselves played an important role in shaping the people and practices within them.

‎, ludion, 2020 Hardcover, 320 x 250 mm, 256 pages, ENGLISH edition FINE!! isbn;9789461300591 (HB - E) ISBN 9789461300591.‎

‎Razor-sharp analysis of details from Van Eyck's work, which often cannot be observed with the naked eye. Each detail is accompanied by accessible commentary. With a biography, an essay on the oil painting technique and a catalogue of Van Eyck's oeuvre. Second edition.Zelden was een schilderkunst tegelijkertijd zo inventief, verfijnd en subliem Review(s) The Flemish painter Jan van Eyck (ca. 1390-1441) is one of the greatest painters of the 15th century and especially famous for his very detailed paintings. His oeuvre is literally scrutinized in this publication: razor-sharp details are shown and commented on on the basis of many examples. An overview (with explanations) of the entire painted oeuvre and a biography precede this. The chapters with detailed images are arranged in themes: the divine, man, nature, architecture, everyday life and tactility. On the basis of these details, the reader not only gets a nice overview of the painter's work, but also of his fascinating technique. With many beautiful color images, a bibliography and a foreword by the painter Luc Tuymans. Highly recommended for lovers of early Flemish painting.‎

‎, Thames and Hudson 2022, 2022 Hardcover, 256 pages, ENG, 290 x 225 mm, NEW, 250 pictures in colour and b/w, .* NEW. ISBN 9780500025703.‎

‎A full-career retrospective on the work of Vivian Maier, bringing together a selection of key works from throughout her life and career. When Vivian Maier's archive was discovered in Chicago in 2007, the photography community gained an immense and singular talent. Maier lived in relative obscurity until her death in 2009, but is now the subject of films and books, and recognized as one of the great American photographers of the 20th century. Born in New York in 1926, she worked as a nanny in New York and Chicago for much of her adult life. It was during her years as a nanny that she took many of the photographs that have made her posthumously famous. Maier's incredible body of work consists of more than 150,000 photographic images, Super 8 and 16 mm films, various recordings and a multitude of undeveloped films. Working primarily as a street photographer, Maier's work has been compared with such luminaries as Helen Levitt, Robert Frank, Diane Arbus and Joel Meyerowitz. Drawing on previously unpublished archives and recent scientific analyses, this retrospective sheds new light on Maier's work. With texts by Anne Morin and Christa Bl mlinger, this thorough look at Maier's entire archive is organized thematically in sections that cover self-portraits, the street, portraits, gestures, cinematography, children, colour work and forms. A valuable addition to the continuing assessment of Maier's work, this book is a one-volume compendium of her most enduring images.‎

Autobiographie d'un protagoniste de l'Art nouveau reconnu comme l'un des pères fondateurs de l'architecture moderne. Henry van de Velde nous décrit son périple et celui de sa famille au cours de quarante années mouvementées de l'histoire européenne (1917-1957), à travers la Suisse où il se lie avec Kirchner et Romain Rolland, les Pays-Bas où il projette un musée pour la famille Kröller-Müller, et la Belgique où il est appelé en 1926 pour diriger un nouvel Institut des Arts décoratifs destiné à réitérer à Bruxelles l'expérience de son école de Weimar, devancière du Bauhaus. En dépit des polémiques attisées par Victor Horta, son école s'ouvre en 1927 dans l?ancienne abbaye de La Cambre. Elle rassemble un corps enseignant d?élite dont la pédagogie, centrée sur la pratique en atelier, influe de manière durable sur la production du pays et bénéficie d?une reconnaissance internationale avec les pavillons de la Belgique aux Expositions de Paris 1937 et de New York 1939. Parallèlement, il édifie la bibliothèque de l'Université de Gand (1933-1940), avec son « silo à livres », et devient conseiller artistique auprès des Chemins de Fer belges et des Malles Ostende Douvres. Ce rôle, il l'exerce aussi auprès du ministère des Travaux publics avant d'accepter une mission analogue, en 1940, au Commissariat Général à la Restauration du Pays, placé sous l?autorité de l'administration militaire allemande. Après-guerre, déprimé par des enquêtes qui se soldent par un non-lieu, il s'installe en Suisse, à Oberägeri, où Alfred Roth et Max Bill veillent sur lui. Il y rédige ses mémoires et reçoit des personnalités comme Giedion, Neutra, Aalto ou Philip Johnson, intéressées par cet autodidacte, protagoniste de l?Art nouveau, désormais reconnu comme l?un des pères de l?architecture moderne du XXe siècle.‎
