Julius Bryant
THE ART OF THE ILLUSTRATED BOOK : 700 Years of History and Design
Hardcover, 288 pages, ENG, 300 x 235 mm, NEW, dustjacket, illustrations in colour and b/w. ISBN 9780500480694. The story of the illustrated book from the earliest printed books to the present day, told through the collections of the V&A's National Art Library. Throughout history, images have been used to reflect the meaning of words and to enhance our understanding of texts. With the invention of mechanized printing in Germany in the 15th century, illustrated books were no longer the preserve of the elite and became a source of knowledge, instruction and pleasure for a wider audience. Traditional accounts of the illustrated book survey its history in terms of technological advances, from illumination to hand-drawn illustrations and photography. This study offers a new approach, grouping books by subject - from natural history and travel to art, architecture and fashion. Gathered here are some of the most influential and compelling examples of the illustrated book, all chosen from the collections of the National Art Library at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. Each chapter starts with a general introduction to the subject, followed by key examples accompanied by narrative captions. The commentaries range beyond the illustrations to consider the whole book, the design, typeface, binding, inks and papers. Many of the books are not on display to the public and have been specially photographed for this volume. Most examples have been chosen for their significance, being innovative and beautiful. But humble books, often overlooked in histories, have also been selected, when particularly effective in their field, or simply memorable. From beautiful printed Psalters and Books of Hours, to striking natural history books such as Audubon's Birds of America, La Fontaine's Fables illustrated by Marc Chagall, Serlio's treatise on architecture and Owen Jones's Grammar of Ornament, this book gives a fascinating overview of some of the finest illustrated books ever created. In the face of recent pronouncements about the death of the printed book, this volume demonstrates the enduring appeal of the illustrated book.

Jyri Kokkonen , Edited by Harry Kivilinna
Timo Sarpaneva Drawings, Sketches and Paintings 1943 - 1956.
Paperback, English/ Finnish, 151 PAGES Illustrated. fine! ISBN 9789529878871. Timo Sarpaneva was originally trained as a graphic designer and the student assignments from his years at the Central School of Industrial Art (1940 ? 1949) have not been previously published or displayed. Less known works by him also include textile patterns and designs from the 1940s and 1950s. Added to these are paintings and graphic design by Timo Sarpaneva from the same period, 1943 ? 1956. Timo Sarpaneva : Piirroksia, luonnoksia ja maalauksia 1943 - 1956 Drawings, Sketches and Paintings 1943 - 1956 Paperback English, Finnish Translated by Jyri Kokkonen , Edited by Harry Kivilinna Share Timo Sarpaneva oli koulutukseltaan graafikko, ja hänen Taideteollisuus-keskuskoulun aikana (1940 - 1949) tekemiään koulutehtäviä ei ole aikaisemmin ollut esillä tai julkaistu. Vähemmän tunnettuja ovat myös hänen 1940-1950 - luvuilla suunnittelemansa tekstiilimallit. Tähän julkaisuun on lisäksi koottu hänen maalauksiaan ja grafiikkaa samalta ajanjaksolta, vuosilta 1943 - 1956. Timo Sarpaneva (1926-2006) oli monipuolinen kansainvälinen taiteilija ja suunnittelija, jonka ura ajoittuu seitsemälle vuosikymmenelle. Hän suunnitteli mm. tekstiilejä, painotuotteita, muovia, valurautaa, terästä, posliinia, lasia ja hopeaa. Hänen keksimälleen paperin- ja kankaanpainomenetelmälle myönnettiin kansainvälinen patentti. Myös Iittalan lasitehtaalla Sarpanevan keksimä Finlandia-pintalasitekniikka vaikutti suuresti seuraavien vuosien käyttö- ja taidelasin ilmeeseen. Jo Sarpanevan ensi esiintyminen taidemaalarina v. 1949 Helsingin Taidehallin nuortennäyttelyssä oli menestys. ?Sarpaneva on huomioon otettava koloristinen lahjakkuus, jonka hienostunut taidekäsitys antaa suuria lupauksia?, kirjoitti arvostettu taidekriitikko Edward Richter. Toinen sija Riihimäen lasitehtaan julistamassa kansainvälisessä lasinsuunnittelukilpailussa v. 1949, sytytti kiinnostuksen lasiin. Lasin parissa Sarpaneva työskenteli koko uransa ajan suunnitellen käyttö- ja taidelasia, sekä lasiveistoksia. Hänen teollista muotoiluaan on palkittu mm. Milanon Triennaleissa Grand Prix'lla. Sarpaneva on ottanut vastaan lukuisia huomionosoituksia mm. Pro Finlandia 1958 Maailman ensimmäinen muotoilun kunniatohtori, Royal College of Art, Lontoo 1967 Professorin arvonimi 1976 Akateemikko H.C., Academia de Diseno, University of Mexico City 1985 Kunniatohtori, Taideteollinen Korkeakoulu 1993

Karlsen, Arne
Danish Furniture Design in the XXth Century - 2 volumes.
Hardcover with dusjacket 2 volumes / slipcase; complet.223+ 327 pages, Illustrated. fine condition. ISBN 9787872412511. Widely considered as the best assessment of modern Danish furniture available in English and are beautifully illustrated with historic photographs and new photographs of surviving pieces. Many of the photographs of some of the best pieces in museums and public buildings in Copenhagen appear to have been taken specifically for the book. Full-page photographs are set out facing reproductions of original presentation or technical drawings. Karlsen was an architect who worked with Mogens Koch, to whom the volumes are dedicated, and he approaches the subject through his hands-on experience as a furniture designer. The volumes provide a very readable and a very good broad chronological overview but what makes them invaluable is the addition of detailed and critical assessments of the most important and influential examples of chairs, tables and storage furniture produced through the century.
