Seven Perspectives on the Woodcut covers a wide range of issues related to bookmaking in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. The analyses of the art of the woodcut presented here have their beginnings in the exhibition "A Heavenly Craft: The Woodcut in Early Printed Books" which opened at the Library of Congress in April 2005. The exhibition and its catalogue celebrated the large gift of illustrated books by Lessing J. Rosenwald retired chairman of Sears Roebuck & Company to the library and examined the early history of printed books through some of the collection's rarest items. The Library of Congress also hosted a symposium in honor of the exhibition and Rosenwald's gift and invited scholars of art history and bibliography to contribute to a discussion of the woodcut in early printed books. Each chapter analyzes unique perspectives on the artistic development of the woodcut. Topics include the work of Albrecht Dürer distinguished miniaturist Benedetto Bordon early illustrated versions of Genesis the illustrations for Bernhard von Breydenbach's Travels in the Holy Land one of the earliest travelogues and the history of early illustrated prayer books and devotional texts. Corresponding images of woodcuts as well as photographs of original woodblocks appear throughout the volume. Distributed for the Library of Congress. Library of Congress unknown books
2025ref. 214832Torino: Allemandi 2025. Hardcover. As New. Large square quarto. Bound in burnt orange cloth with gilt titles and illustration pasted center front. 179 p. : chiefly ill. chiefly col. ; 31 cm. Italian text. With Il tempo sospeso Part II Galleria Mattia De Luca sought to continue the exhibition journey begun with the show "Giorgio Morandi: Il tempo sospeso" Rome 2022 enriching it with a significant second chapter—one that is distinctly American. Set within a historic New York residence—a nineteenth-century townhouse on the Upper East Side adjacent to Central Park—gallerist Mattia De Luca and Marilena Pasquali chose to present the work of the great Bolognese master. In doing so they simultaneously evoked the domestic intimacy of his working environment and the fruitful ties he forged with the United States—connections the artist cultivated during his lifetime beginning in the 1930s and which have remained unbroken ever since. New York was in fact the first U.S. city to dedicate a solo exhibition to him held at the Delius Gallery in 1955. The result of a renewed collaboration with the Centro Studi Giorgio Morandi in Bologna this project aimed to trace the artist’s creative trajectory through a selection of more than sixty works—including etchings watercolors drawings and oil paintings—created between 1914 and 1964. Serving as exquisite variations on the themes of still life and landscape—"orchestrated" by the painter from Grizzana through a masterful command of color and volume—these works offered a significant opportunity for critical comparison and historical reflection.

White boards with color illustration and black text. 295 pp. Color and bw illustrations. Signed & inscribed by author on title page. "Absurd Thinking: Between Art and Design is a survey of work by artist/architect Allan Wexler. The book features projects developed across the artist's forty-five-year career that mediate the gap between fine and applied art using the mediums of architecture sculpture photography painting and drawing. Wexler's works can be broadly described as tactile poetry composed by re-framing the ordinary. They sustain a narrative about landscape nature and the built environment that highlights the intriguing and surprising characteristics latent in the elements and rituals that pervade daily life. Wexler's work is sometimes functional sometimes theoretical and often a hybrid of the two. In all cases it demonstrates a commitment to re-evaluating basic assumptions about the human relationship to the built and natural environments. Organized thematically across four categories--Abstraction Landscape Private Space and Public Places--this book is a richly illustrated cross-section of Wexler's multi-scale multi-media work featuring his own writings narratives and reflections" Lars Muller Publishers hardcover books

Illustrated wraps. 173 pages : illustrations chiefly color ; 24 cm. Italian text. Probably painted in the last decade of the fifteenth century the Scapiliata represents both a puzzle and a symbol. A puzzle as is often the case with Leonardo da Vinci's work linked to a unique experimentalism that codified some of the most characteristic canons of modernity. But it is also a symbol since her face with its loose hair is not a simple icon of feminine beauty: it is much more. It corresponds to the search for expressive means capable of summarizing in the immobile two-dimensional space of a small panel all the divine complexity of reality: movement life affections or rather the feelings inherent to the emotional and psychological sphere of the subject. A work that however small in size encapsulates the full breadth of the innovations and questions raised by Leonardo. Exhibition: Complesso Monumentale della Pilotta Parma Italy 18.05-12.08.2019.
