The first, lavishly produced monograph on the paintings, drawings, and sculpture of Leon Loewentraut, (b.1998) a young and upcoming star on the German and international art scene. Text in English and German.

This extraordinary coffee table book is dedicated to the concept of aesthetics from the personal perspective of star interior designer Thai Cong, and becomes a design piece itself with its layout and content.

During his life, working mainly in his studios in Berlin, Germany and Nong Khai, Thailand, Albrecht Genin (Oldenburg 1945 - Berlin 2013) created an impressive oeuvre. Far from artistic trends, museums, art critics and galleries Genin was able to translate what he considered to be the absurd reality of life into a liveable fantasy.

Right from the start Genin chose printed matter like Bibles, law books, maps, sheet music and ledgers to work on.

When you consider all the techniques and materials...

A contemporary view of the masterly works of Dieric Bouts

Dieric Bouts (ca. 1410/20-75) is one of the most elusive figures in the history of Western art. Flemish primitive of the second generation, painter of silence – such are the labels that are usually attributed to him. But was the Master of Brabant not more than that?

This book, published in association with the exhibition, DIERIC BOUTS. Creator of Images, at M Leuven, attempts to get closer to this enigmatic figure. Dieric Bouts had b...

BOEKFICHE The Bold and the Beautiful - In Flemish Portraits

Men in stately black, women with huge ruffs, children with golden rattles, old women with wizened faces, and self-satisfied artists… These are the main players in just about every portrait ever painted in the Southern Netherlands. From the fifteenth to the seventeenth centuries, the tract of land that we today call Flanders was the economic, cultural, intellectual and financial heart of Europe. And money flows – with everyone who ...

A short but flourishing era of Avant-Garde in Georgia brought back to life

In the turbulent global context following the fall of the Russian Empire and the October Revolution, Georgia declared its independence in 1918. Between then and the beginning of Soviet rule in 1921, an Avant-Garde creative scene burgeoned. Artists met, mainly in the many taverns and cafés in Kutaisi and the capital Tbilisi, to organise multidisciplinary events. Their frequent collaborations and interactions, which bor...

Cindy Wright creates large-scale oil paintings on canvas. At first glance the monumental still life paintings appear to be photo-realistic, using the photographic methods of cropping compositions and intense source lighting. But on closer inspection, the range of mark-making and painterly applications become astoundingly apparent. Wright’s work echoes the morbid tradition of ‘vanitas’ from the Dutch Old Masters of the 16th and 17th Century. Between beauty and decay, archetypal symbols l...

Pieter Bruegel invites us to study and to admire his work down to the tiniest element. He was a trained and experienced miniaturist, draughtsman, and print designer: skills that combined with his brilliant painting technique enable us to read every image and every detail. Bruegel created a world of unprecedented visual richness: it is impossible to take in everything at once, as there is so much to see. Alongside this rich viewing experience, Bruegel always offers layers of visual and intelle...
