Fushigi Circus (Japanese Edition)
A new, unread book in excellent condition. Full red cloth boards with gilt titles and pasted-down illustration. Gray linen endpapers. Text in Japanese. 6"w x 9"h. 126 pages. A collection of the pop surrealist master's work. "Blending themes of pop culture with techniques reminiscent of the old masters, Mark Ryden has created a singular style that blurs the traditional boundaries between high and low art. His work first garnered attention in the 1990s when he ushered in a new genre of painting, "Pop Surrealism", dragging a host of followers in his wake. Ryden has trumped the initial surrealist strategies by choosing subject matter loaded with cultural connotation." [Ryden website]

Joan Miro. Prints, paintings and sculptures from The Maeght Collection.= Maeght Koleksiyonu'ndan baskilar, resimler ve heykeller.
New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (28 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 203 p., color ills. "Joan Miró: Prints, Paintings and Sculptures from the Maeght Collection exhibited in 2008, presented the joyous and impassioned colours of the post-war period, as well as the recollections of a long-lasting friendship. With a view to create a liberal working environment for artists, the Maeght Family inaugurated the Maeght Foundation in 1964, with the aim of rekindling friendships it has formed with artists and intellectuals in the 1930s, prior to World War II. This endeavor lead to the creation of the first modern and contemporary art foundation conceived in France. Questioning life as well as art and offering unconventional perspectives, philosophical and artistic currents, movements such as Dadaism, Cubism, Surrealism, Automatism, and Existentialism developed in this period giving rise to the emergence of artists identifying themselves by these movements. Embracing hundreds of artists and intellectuals, the Maeght Family became their friends and patrons. Among these, Miró always maintained a special place for the Family.".

GIORGIO DE CHIRICO.
Giorgio de Chirico: The enigma of the world.= Dünyanin gizemi. Curated by Fabio Benzi. [Exhibition catalogue]. Prep. by Begüm Akkoyunlu Ersöz et al.
New English Paperback. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 283 p., color ills. Giorgio de Chirico: The enigma of the world.= Dünyanin gizemi. Curated by Fabio Benzi. [Exhibition catalogue]. Prep. by Begüm Akkoyunlu Ersöz et al. Giorgio de Chirico is one of the most extraordinary figures of the 20thcentury, a period marked by consecutive avant-garde movements. During this rich period that brought to fore different forms and modes of expression rather than themes in painting, de Chirico, as distinct from his contemporaries, created a unique metaphysical universe in which he carried the fresh themes he developed and carried to the center of his painting. Following the first metaphysical works he produced between 1910 and 1918, which also served as a source of inspiration for the Surrealists, he gravitated towards a different search with the changing dynamics of the post-World War I period. He was interested in ancient Greek and Roman art and re-interpreted the works of Old masters. He revisited metaphysical painting when he turned 80. He completed his artistic career with the new themes he developed in this area and the canvases he painted with lighter colours compared to his early period. The exhibition catalogue includes writings by the artist and encompassing essays focusing on de Chirico's artistic career and the Metaphysical Art, which he invented, as well as exemplifying his various periods ranging from his earliest works to his last ones.

New English Paperback. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 191 p., color ills. Ai Weiwei on porcelain.= Ai Weiwei porselene dair. [Exhibition catalogue]. With the support of Akbank, Sabanci University Sakip Sabanci Museum will host Ai Weiwei's first exhibition in Turkey, between the dates 12 September 2017 and 28 January 2018. The exhibition will showcase an extensive selection from the artist's oeuvre alongside new works. Focusing on Ai Weiwei's wide-ranging production in the medium of porcelain, the exhibition will present a narrative informed by the artist's life story and his approach to both the tradition of craftsmanship and art history. Within the scope of the exhibition, each stage of Ai Weiwei's prolific journey in porcelain will be presented with his iconic works. Transferring his contemporary message through the language of traditional Chinese craft, Ai Weiwei's art practice provides the viewer with a perspective on the paradoxes of our time. The exhibition offers a comprehensive view of Ai Weiwei's art practice through a structure built through recurrent themes in his works. Dealing with the concepts of authenticity, the transformation of the value systems throughout different eras and cultural history, Ai Weiwei's works call the viewers' understanding of cultural, artistic and historical values into question.
