‎CONSTANTIN MEUNIER MUSEUM ENG.‎

‎, Mus e Meunier, Bruxelles, 2021 HB, 255 x 210 mm, 144 p, 200 illustraties. ENGLISH edition. ISBN 9789461616937.‎

‎Publication at the occasion of the re-opening of the museum Constantin Meunier. This museum is located in Ixelles in the house-cum-studio of artist, painter, sculptor and draughtsman Constantin Meunier (1831-1905). The items on display trace more specifically the evolution of the master between 1875 and 1905, this "second life" in his own words, during which his Realist talent focused more on the social and industrial aspects of Belgium, first through painting and drawing and then, from 1885 onwards, with his return to sculpture to become one of the greatest artists of the genre. Paintings like The Broken Pot are echoed by important sculptures like The Hammerer, a whole people of plaster and bronze that deeply marked his day and continued to influence Realist art well into the first decades of the 20th century. HISTORY OF THE COLLECTION Constantin Meunier (1831-1905) had this beautiful housecum-studio built towards the end of his life. Sheltering an extensive collection of over 700 works, the house was acquired by the Belgian state in 1936 and opened to the public in 1939. Attached to the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, and subsequently renovated, it has since 1986 presented a selection of about 150 works and documents.‎

‎Roger II of Sicily. Family, Faith, and Empire in the Medieval Mediterranean World‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, 221 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:18 b/w, 4 tables b/w., 2 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503581408.‎

‎Summary Roger II (c. 1095-1154), Sicily's first king, was an anomaly for his time. An ambitious new ruler who lacked the distinguished lineage so prized by the nobility, and a leader of an extraordinarily diverse population on the fringes of Europe, he occupied a unique space in the continent's charged political landscape. This interdisciplinary study examines the strategies that Roger used to legitimize his authority, including his relationships with contemporary rulers, the familial connections that he established through no less than three marriages, and his devotion to the Church and Saint Nicholas of Myra/Bari. Yet while Roger and his family made the most of their geographic and cultural contexts, it is convincingly argued here that they nonetheless retained a strong western focus, and that behind the diverse m lange of Norman Sicily were very occidental interests. Drawing together sources of political, social, and religious history from locations as disparate as Spain and the Byzantine Empire, as well as evidence from the magnificent churches and elaborate mosaics constructed during his reign, this volume offers a fascinating portrait of a figure whose rule was characterized both by great potential and devastating tragedy. Indeed, had Roger been able to accomplish his ambitious agenda, the history of the medieval Mediterranean world would have unfolded very differently.

‎PLACES OF THE SOUL. Architecture And Environmental Design As A Healing Art.‎

‎Aquarian Press: 1990. 192 pages illustrated. This book "examines in what way we can reinstate the human factor in the building equation. The book demonstrated how building design can start with people and place and how buildings can develop organically from these foundations- how builders and users can add to the quality of a place rather than compromise s designer's intentions. It is a book which challenges conventional practice and shows how all the senses can be catered for in built environments rather than trying to squeeze human beings into living spaces where physically and spiritually they do not belong."

‎Thorsons Pub 1995. Book. Near-Fine. Trade Paperback. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-fine condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Tight spine bright pages. Illustrated throughout. 192 pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. - Synopsis Revised to incorporate the changes in opinions and attitudes since its first publication the second edition of 'Places of the Soul' has brought Christopher Day's classic text into the 21st century. This new edition of the seminal text reminds us that true sustainable design does not simply mean energy efficient building. Sustainable buildings must provide for the 'soul'. For Christopher Day architecture is not just about a building's appearance but how the building is experienced. 'Places of the Soul' presents buildings as environment intrinsic to their surroundings and offers design principles that will open the eyes of the architecture student and professional alike presenting ideas quite different to the orthodoxy of modern architectural education. Christopher Day's experience as an architect self-builder professor and sculptor have all added to the development of his ideas that encompass issues of economic and social sustainability commercial pressures and consensus design. This book presents these ideas and outlines universal principles that will be of interest and value to architects builders planners and developers alike. Author is leading authority in this field and has a throng of devoted admirers 1st edition is considered a classic in the industry and it has been renewed for the 21st century Sustainability and environmental design is one of the key areas of interest and study for architects today.
