ISBN 9783768838740.‎ ‎A compelling book about life and works of Ercole Spada and his son Paolo. This Italian grandmaster designed Aston Martin DB4 Zagato, Alfa Romeo Codatronca, TZ1, 2600 SZ and Junior Zagato, Lancia Fulvia and Flavia Zagato, Osca Dromos and many more.Buch komplett in englischer Sprache / Fulltext in english. When he started his career in the famous Milanese studio Zagato back in 1960, Ercole Spada was absolutely unknown to car enthusiasts and the whole industry. Nevertheless, the young designer instantly was ordered to conceptualize cars for famous companies like Aston Martin, Alfa Romeo, Lancia, yet Bristol. Since then, companies with a mainly sporty touch relied on his creations. One reason is that Spada obviously had one important target: he wanted to combine aerodynamics ? functional efficiency and aesthetics in one form. Although he contributed to a lot of racing victories in this manner and worked for the Carrozzeria Ghia, for BMW and the design studio I.DE.A. in Turin in his long career, he didn?t become a star on the world?s boulevards. And he still is the silent foreman. For this, it is most unusual that he opened the doors to his studio, to his home and to his creative heart for the motoring journalist and photographer Bart Lenaerts and his wife Lies De Mol. The outcome of this is shown in an extraordinary illustrated book: their years of extensive work together. It is beautifully designed and gives exclusive information ? for the reader to take part in the exciting life of a truly passionate car guy. Spada is the creator of the famous Codatronca tail (Alfa Romeo Giulia TZ etc.), designed the BMW 5-series (E34) and the 7-series (E32)with his son Paolo, he is running the design studio Spadaconcept his company Spada Vetture Sport created an international stir with its Codatronca supercar‎ Bookseller reference : 49930	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €90.00 Buy

ISBN 9789053254264.‎ ‎Deze designer is bij het grote publiek bekend van het VRT-programma De Bedenkers. Hij is de man achter het design van de Brusselse metro, verschillende bussen, de waterkranen van Sipwell,? Met andere woorden: iedereen komt bijna dagelijks met zijn ontwerpen in aanraking zonder het goed en wel te beseffen. De foto op de cover is trouwens van Vanfleteren. Designed by Axel Enthoven. Day after day he proves that elegance still exists today. He demonstrates that statements, sloganesque formulations, cutting corners, taking an obtuse attitude to people are not his thing. That kindness is not synonymous with weakness. That taking the time to think things through properly should not be exceptional. Taking responsibility regarding the impact of actions and words is not a rare occurrence. Striving after timelessness and sustainability are given a lasting interpretation. For him, combining aesthetics and functionality is a matter of course. Thanks to Axel Enthoven we are reminded that things can be different. And how important design is.‎ Bookseller reference : 50057	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €45.00 Buy

ISBN 9789058561336.‎ ‎Expo: 29/4/2006 - 25/6/2006 -previously announced-, Designmuseum, Gent Dit boek overbrugt een periode van meer dan 25 jaar en toont aan hoe de rol van product design geevolueerd is doorheen het werk van Enthoven Associates, een design consultancy uit Antwerpen (B). De basis van het boek is de beschrijving van vijf periodes aan de hand van visueel materiaal over de producten die ontwikkeld werden in die periode en van achtergrondverhalen van bevoorrechte waarnemers. Het toont ook hoe de diensten van design consultants veranderd zijn, net zoals design zelf: van de visie van een individuele ontwerper tot de gecombineerde deskundigheid van de leden van een team, van een eerder kunstzinnige blik op producten uit het dagelijkse leven tot een veel complexere toegevoegde waarde die kunst met technologie combineert of ethische waarden met marketing concepten. De laatste periode in het boek is de toekomst. Een concept rond de keuken van de toekomst, uitgevoerd in Living Tomorrow Amsterdam, en een onderzoeksproject rond 'ouder worden' illustreren de visie van Enthoven Associates op de rol van design voor het volgende decennium. This special book tides over a period of thirty years and show how the role of product design has evolved through the work of Enthoven Associates, an internationally operating design consultancy in Antwerp, led by Alain Denis, Axel Enthoven and Jean-Pierre Geelen. The services of design consultants have thoroughly changed, and the same goes for design itself: from the vision of an individual designer to the combined expertise of the members of a team, from a more artistic view on products from the daily life to a much more complex added value that combines art with technology or ethical values with marketing concepts. All these things are exemplified by a historical overview and dozens of detailed cases like the Magiq bus, the Brussels tram, the Genio bed, Living Tomorrow, the Ethnicraft chair, products for Tupperware‎ Bookseller reference : 50058	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €35.00 Buy

ISBN 9789491819780.‎ ‎Designer, kunstenaar en architect Frans Van Praet (1937) is vooral bekend om de interieurinrichting van het Belgisch Paviljoen op de wereldtentoonstelling in Sevilla (1992) en zijn iconische Sevillazitje. Dit lijvige boek, waarmee Van Praet zijn tachtigste verjaardag viert, bewijst nochtans dat zijn oeuvre heel wat rijker en verscheidener is dan wat het grote publiek van hem kent. Frans Van Praet werd geboren in 1937 in Sint-Amands aan de Schelde. Als jonge man vertoeft hij in het kunstenaarsmilieu rond Galerie De Zwarte Panter. Het is in deze context dat men zijn beeldend werk moet plaatsen: een Vlaams surrealisme, dat al woordspelend knipoogt met beelden. In zijn realisaties komt een boeiende ambiguiteit naar voren: verhalende exuberantie gaat hand in hand met de minder-is-meer-soberheid van het minimalisme. Deze beperking waarin men de meester herkent, is de hoofdlijn die Van Praet volgt wanneer hij gebruiksvoorwerpen ontwerpt. Zo mogelijk bepaalt hij ook graag mee de ruimte waarin de objecten zullen functioneren. Zijn creaties vormen een synthese van het ongewoon utilitaire en het potentieel van het materiaal. Hout is zijn lievelingsmateriaal. Bij doorgezaagd, eeuwenoud hout ziet men de jaarringen - de geschiedenis van het groeiproces‎ Bookseller reference : 52044	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €49.90 Buy

René Gabriel connaît ses premiers succès en dessinant et produisant, jeune étudiant, ses propres papiers peints. Créateur de meubles, il reçoit à 23 ans la bourse Blumenthal et participe en 1925 à l'Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels, aux côtés de Francis Jourdain et des modernistes. Illustrateur, il est également décorateur de théâtre et scénographe, notamment pour ses amis Léon Chancerel et Louis Jouvet. En retrait des grandes figures des années 20, René Gabriel se distingue de ses contemporains par son rejet du luxe et de l'ostentation. Poursuivant son travail d'artiste et de décorateur, qui l'amène à collaborer avec des maisons prestigieuses - Nobilis, Leroy, Follot -, il joue un rôle déterminant dans le design de la reconstruction : il dessine notamment des centaines de modèles pour les sinistrés et se rapproche d'Auguste Perret pour la reconstruction du Havre.‎ Bookseller reference : 52742	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €65.00 Buy

This new book explores his entire career: his move from Italy to Detroit at 15; his formative years at Cranbrook; his work with Charles Eames and Knoll; through to his fascinating sound sculptures. In doing so, the book demonstrates how seemingly disparate works are in fact united in being reflections of nature, and places Bertoia's art squarely at the heart of American modernism.‎ Bookseller reference : 53032	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €69.00 Buy

The publication is set up to provide a new comprehensive outline for scholars of furniture design by considering the latest academic research, questioning extant knowledge, and giving top experts a platform to share their ideas. The book touches on a range of subjects spanning the beginnings of industrialization to digitalization, which is becoming increasingly influential in contemporary furniture design. Whether as a selection of iconic designs or as a history of styles, a chronicle of evolution or of revolution, a history of objects or of images, or a narrative of domestic habits or of individual designers, this book can be read in a vast range of ways. But the »Atlas of Furniture Design« can also be enjoyed by readers who prefer to dispense with complex theories and just want to concentrate on each single object.«‎ Bookseller reference : 53182	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €159.00 Buy

ISBN 9782919459049.‎ ‎Élève, enseignant, puis directeur de l'école Boulle, Jacques Hitier (1917-1999) se singularise parmi les créateurs modernes en apportant au meuble industriel son expérience d'artiste décorateur. Après des recherches menées dans l'équipement scolaire pour des marques aussi célèbres que Mobilor ou Mullca, il élargit son travail de création à l'habitation dès la fin des années 1940. Alors que le meuble industriel semblait condamné à équiper ateliers et collectivités depuis près d'un siècle, Jacques Hitier réussit à répondre aux désirs des particuliers. Associé à la firme Tubauto, il invente un style où le tube de métal s'intégre à l'intimité du logement, par la souplesse des lignes, la douceur des matières et la gaieté des couleurs. Cette monographie, réalisée à partir des archives conservées par sa famille, retrace le parcours de Jacques Hitier, avec des pages thématiques mettant en avant les temps forts de sa carrière, et des notices descriptives présentant ses oeuvres emblématiques.‎ Bookseller reference : 60111	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €30.00 Buy

ISBN 9789054878803.‎ ‎Deze publicatie is de eerste diepgaande studie van het Belgisch militair gerecht tijdens Wereldoorlog I. De werking van het krijgsgerecht wordt gedetailleerd beschreven en geëvalueerd aan de hand van een omvangrijk onderzoek van nooit eerder bestudeerde archiefdocumenten van het auditoraat-generaal en van het krijgshof, waaronder meer dan 300 omzendbrieven van de auditeur-generaal, ongeveer 5500 arresten en bijna 1000 dossiers van het krijgshof. De strafrechtelijke procedure, van onderzoek tot strafuitvoering, wordt volledig uiteengezet aan de hand van wetgeving, rechtspraak, rechtsleer, omzendbrieven en een groot aantal publicaties. De praktijk van het krijgsgerecht en de betekenis ervan voor de soldaten worden genuanceerd weergegeven en geanalyseerd via een aantal centrale vragen, die o.m. de taalkwestie en de sociale verhoudingen in het leger en in het krijgsgerecht aansnijden, maar ook de impact van de oorlogsontwikkelingen op de rechtspraktijk, de rol van de militaire overheden, de verhouding krijgshof-krijgsraden enz. Dit werk is een verhelderende studie voor al wie inzicht wil hebben in de vervolging van de militairrechtelijke delicten tijdens Wereldoorlog I en verschijnt nu in een tweede, herziene editie.

ISBN 9789490693152.‎ ‎In the mid-sixties, a young Belgian-American experimental/visual poet, Alain Arias-Misson, returned to his birthplace Brussels, which his family had fled during World War II for New York. Back in Brussels the poet initiated his well-known "public poems", which predate the genre performance and are all up to today different from one another and never repeated. For Arias-Misson, the street is the page upon which the poem can be drawn. The city can be construed as a text. It is a focal point of socio-political signs, and its syntax and semantics can be made "legible" by introducing highly graphic, linguistic and non-linguistic clues in the street. Arias-Misson's public poems are always specific to the urban setting, and to the political moment in which they were created. His poems are sometimes presented in dreamlike sequences, often provoking "public disorder" in cities throughout Europe as well as forays into New York and Los Angeles.‎ Bookseller reference : 60219	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €32.50 Buy

ISBN 9781900828420.‎ ‎Dixonary is the first comprehensive book on one of Britain's best known and most highly regarded product designers, in his own words and with a wealth of illustrations showing the inspiration behind each work he has produced in almost 30 years of design. Self-taught and a child of the punk era, Dixon (born 1959) founded his own studio in 1991 and became Head of Design at Habitat in 1998 before reestablishing his own brand, Tom Dixon - a lighting and furniture design and manufacturing company - in 2002. He has also been Creative Director at Artek, the Finnish furniture company founded by Alvar and Aino Aalto. Dixon's artistic career began when he discovered the pleasures of welding while repairing damaged motorcycle frames; he went on to specialize in welded salvage furniture and became known as a designer when his S-Chair was manufactured by Guido Cappellini in 1991. Dixon's previous books include Rethink (2002), an analysis of each room in the modern home, and The Interior World of Tom Dixon (2008), a book of ideas and observations on design, materials and style. Dixonary is the first complete monograph of this British innovator.‎ Bookseller reference : 60220	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €79.00 Buy

Concentrating on either a single painting or an iconographically related group of paintings, Julius S. Held examines the processes, some perhaps even unconscious, that underlie Rembrandt's highly personal works. To his previously published essays--"Aristotle," "The "Polish' Rider," "Juno," "Rembrandt and the Book of Tobit," and "Rembrandt: Truth and Legend"--the author adds an essay on the theme of the Beggar, another one on subjects involving words spoken, and a new introduction discussing some current trends in Rembrandt criticism.‎ Bookseller reference : 60227	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €35.00 Buy

ISBN 9782909838267.‎ ‎Painted for the refectory of the convent of Santa Maria dei Servi in 1570-3, The Feast in the House of Simon was presented to Louis XIV by the Most Serene Republic of Venice in 1664, as a token of friendship between the two states. But it was not until 1730, during the reign of Louis XV, that this great masterpiece was to find a setting worthy of it in the Salon d'Hercule at Versailles, for which Francois Le Moyne painted a ceiling decoration a l'italienne, unique in France, using a light, luminous and sensual palette in an explicit tribute to Venetian painting.Despite a major restoration in 1948 and two later superficial cleanings, the painting was obscured, notably by thick varnishes, and required a radical intervention. This process, started in 1994 and finished this year, was carried out by the Service de restauration des musees de France with the scientific assistance of the Laboratoire de recherche. Seventeen experts have contributed essays documenting the "resurrection" of this masterpiece by Veronese.‎ Bookseller reference : 60232	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] €39.50 Buy
