Paul Klee: Irony at Work
Munich: Prestel 2016. Hardcover. Fine contents but with bumped corners. Beige linen/boards. Black lettering. Color illus. laid on. Illustrated end papers. 308 pp. with color and bw images throughout. Catalogue from the exhibition of the same title held at the Centre Pompidou Paris from April - August 2016. "Known for its whimsy and levity Paul Klee's art is often considered gleefully childlike. This companion book to an exhibition at the Centre Pompidou illustrates how Paul Klee s critical and ironic take on life was evident in every stage of his oeuvre. Featuring approximately 250 works this careful appreciation of Klee connects each stage of his career to the larger philosophical context. Exploring the satires and caricatures of Klee's youth his experimentations in Cubism and mechanical theatre and the constructivist approach of the Bauhaus school this book follows the trajectory of Klee s oeuvre as a reflection of prevailing styles. It closes with the artist's final years in which he was labelled a degenerate artist by the Nazi regime and struggled with illness. Viewed through the many facets of irony as a complex theme and against the backdrop of Europe's seismic political and artistic movements Klee s body of work takes on a renewed significance as one of the most critical of its generation's." - museum web site.

Lampe Angela et al.
Chagall Lissitzky Malevich: The Russian Avant-Garde in Vitebsk 1918-1922
Paris: Centre Pompidou 2018. Hardcover. VG. Illustrated covered boards with white writing on front and back cover and spine 285 3. Profusely illustrated in color and bw. This groundbreaking book explores the Russian avant-garde during the early post-revolutionary years of 1918-1922 and brings together the works of three of its most influential artists. When Marc Chagall took over the People's School of Art in his hometown of Vitebsk in 1919 he had already established himself as an avant-garde artist. For the next few years Chagall established the once-sleepy Belarusian town as a hub of revolutionary art making. Along with Kazimir Malevitch and El Lissitzky Chagall presided over a flowering of creativity and artistic energy that became a focal point of Russian modernism. This volume features 250 works and documentary items from Vitebsk bringing to life a little-known chapter in the history of art. Every aspect of this brief but decisive period is examined here from Chagall's notion of proletariat art to the birth of the UNOVIS group and its trailblazing expositions. Correspondence among Chagall Malevitch and Lissitzky are featured alongside important works from all three artists as well as art from their colleagues and students. The result is a multifaceted portrait of a unique collaboration that forged a new path for artistic expression which extended far beyond the boundaries of Vitebsk. -- From publisher's description Contents: Postrevolutionary fervor in Vitebsk -- Chagall in the service of the revolution / Angela Lampe -- The Vitebsk debate on revolutionary art 1918-19 / Alexander Lisov -- The People's Art School -- The Vitebsk art laboratories for world reconstruction / Maria Kokkori and Alexander Bouras -- Leftist art according to Chagall -- Chagall and suprematism / Tamara Karandasheva -- "The new in art": Lissitzky and Malevich -- Vitebsk: A turning point in Lissitzky's life / Willem Jan Renders -- Teach write experiment: Malevich in Vitebsk 1919-22 / Alexandra Shatskikh -- Collective utopia -- UNOVIS: Organization and ideology / Tatiana Goriacheva -- A collection as model -- The Vitebsk Museum of Contemporary Art / Irina Karasik -- After Vitebsk -- Mass/Ornament: Suprematism's third dimension / Samuel Johnson -- UNOVIS in the history of the Russian avant-garde / Jean-Claude Marcadé.

Hitler's Savage Canary: A History of the Danish Resistance in World War II
UK: Frontline Books 2010. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 6.5 x 9.6 inches. H/B 237 pages condition is Very Good. Adolf Hitler stated that after occupation Denmark would turn into a 'model protectorate'. Winston Churchill meanwhile maintained that the small country of then four million people would become 'the sadistic murderer's canary'. In the end neither was right. With no help initially from the Allies the Danes set up a resistance movement that proved to be a constant irritation to the occupation forces - not a meek canary but a dangerous and courageous bird of prey that refused to be caged.The scale of the resistance to the Nazis in Denmark is without equal: twenty-six million issues of illegal newspapers had been published by 1945; radio guides for Allied aircraft had been set up on the coasts; boat services ran between Sweden Denmark and Britain; a news bureau provided a stream of inside information to the Allies; German ships were unable to move out of the ports; and troops were frustrated by the sabotage of railways and air bases. Incredibly almost the entire Jewish population - some 7000 people - was shipped to safety in Sweden. The selfless courage shown by the Danes when collaboration would have been an easy option is astonishing. This story of foolhardy heroism and daring by a small country is a thrilling read and provides a real insight to the mindset of a people under occupation. <br/> <br/> Frontline Books hardcover
