Typography
A Very Short Introduction
AvPaul Luna
Häftad, Engelska, 2018
95 kr
Typography, the art of designing printed words, was once the domain of an elite few artists but has become an area with which millions of people engage daily. The widespread usage of digital devices from laptops to tablets and smart phones which are used for written communications means that we are regularly asked to make decisions about the fonts, sizes, and layouts we use in our writing. This broadening engagement with the field of typography has led to a perceptible shift from debates about legibility and technicalities to conversations about which fonts best reflect the writer's personality or style .In this Very Short Introduction, Paul Luna offers a broad definition of typography as design for reading, whether in print or on screens, where a set of visual choices are taken to make a written message more accessible, more easily transmitted, more significant, or more attractive. Considering the development of letterforms and the shapes of letter we use, Luna discusses the history behind our modern day letters and fonts, before considering the issues behind key typographic decisions, and the differences between printed and on-screen typography. Presenting any piece of typography as a fundamental design choice, Luna introduces the options available today, and explores the reasons why key typographic decisions are made.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

Whitney Chadwick’s acclaimed study challenges the assumption that great women artists are exceptions to the rule, who ‘transcended’ their sex to produce major works of art. While acknowledging the many women whose contribution to visual culture since the Middle Ages have often been neglected, Chadwick’s survey amounts to much more than an alternative canon of women artists: it re-examines the works themselves and the ways in which they have been perceived as marginal, often in direct reference to gender. In her disussion of feminism and its influence on such a reappraisal, the author also addresses the closely related issues of ethnicity, class and sexuality. With a new preface and epilogue from an exciting new authority on the history of women artists, this revised edition continues the project of charting the evolution of feminist art history and pedagogy in recent years, revealing how artists have responded to new strategies of feminism for the current moment.

"Sverige genom konstnärens öga speglar samhällets utveckling med bilder från flera årtusenden. En bragd." Birgitta Rubin Dagens Nyheter"En användbar och pedagogisk konsthistorisk bildningsresa genom svensk konst." Clemens Poellinger Svenska Dagbladet"En riktig folkbildningsinsats." Magnus Haglund Göteborgs-Posten
"Ett njutbart intellektuellt och konstnärligt fyrverkeri. Den som läser Sverige genom konstnärens öga möts inte bara av ett njutbart intellektuellt och konstnärligt fyrverkeri utan också av en kortfattad grundkurs i svensk samhällsutveckling under 13 000 år, med fokus på utvecklingen från och med medeltiden. Det är följaktligen med varm hand jag kan rekommendera Nils-Olof Olssons bok." Dick Harrison , Professor i historia vid Lunds universitet Sverige genom konstnärens öga ger en unik och mångsidig bild av vårt land. Boken sammanför historiska, idéhistoriska och konsthistoriska perspektiv och tecknar en bakgrund till konstnärernas varierande bilduttryck under olika epoker från bronsålder till nutid. Boken innehåller en översiktlig svensk historia, idéhistoria och konsthistoria som illustreras med målningar, teckningar, grafik och annat bildmaterial där motiven hämtats från landskap, samhällen och städer. De historiska avsnitten beskriver i vilket samhälle som konstnärerna lever och skapar sina verk och de idéhistoriska under vilka förhärskande åskådningar som konstverken blir till. De konsthistoriska texterna beskriver konststilarna och redogör för hur de uppstår och utvecklas influerade av internationella strömningar liksom av lokala förhållanden, där de olika epokernas mest betydelsefulla konstnärer presenteras. Sambanden mellan historia, idéhistoria och konsthistoria avser att öka förståelsen och upplevelsen av presenterade konstverk och visa på vilken betydelse de har och har haft i vårt samhälle. De konstnärliga bilderna fram till fotokonstens introduktion under 1800-talet, är de enda visuella återgivningar av vårt land och därför en ovärderlig historisk information för att vidga vår förståelse av varje epoks idéer och värderingar, samhällets utformning och förändring och människors tankemönster och levnadssätt. Sverige genom konstnärens öga är rikligt illustrerad med över fyrahundra bilder. Förord av Dick Harrison och Thomas Millroth. Nils-Olof Olsson har tidigare gett ut Stockholm: fem sekler genom konstnärens öga, Skåne genom konstnärens öga och Västkusten genom konstnärens öga.

Konstnärens trädgård tar dig till ett 20-tal trädgårdar som inte bara inspirerat konstnärer utan också ofta utgjort förstahandsvalet när de letat efter motiv. Och vad passar då bättre än att man har en egen trädgård? Under deras livstid skänkte trädgården inspiration till skapande arbete i dag vittnar den om drivkrafterna bakom deras verk och privatliv, alltifrån Paul Cézannes hus i södra Frankrike till Skagenmålarna, Frida Kahlo i Mexico och impressionisterna i New England. Claude Monets trädgård i Giverny visar till exempel hur en trädgård kan vara den utlösande katalysatorn bakom hundratals storslagna målningar. Ibland blir en hel by till brännpunkt för en konstnärskoloni, som i Murnau bland de bayerska bergen i södra Tyskland och Skagen på Danmarks nordspets. Bland de konstnärer och platser som behandlas finns: Paul Cézanne, Frida Kahlo, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Salvador Dalí, Leonardo da Vinci, Peter Paul Rubens, Emil Nolde, Skagenmålarna Anna Ancher och P. S. Krøyer, Vasilij Kandinskij och Gabriele Münter i Münter-Haus i Murnau, William och May Morris på Kelmscott Manor i Oxfordshire, Duncan Grant och Vanessa Bell på Charleston i Sussex samt Claude Monet och andra i Giverny och Argenteuil.

Varje bok för sig söker, anar, inspirerar och berör känslighet som en grundläggande mänsklig förmåga med tre alldeles egna ingångar:"Känslighet - en metodbok för förskolan" - är inte i gängse bemärkelse en metodbok. Den vill nämligen något så märkligt som att göra metod för att skapa skimmer för och mellan barn. Ett annat sätt att beskriva boken är att den vill inspirera alla i förskolans värld att ta på allvar vikten av känslighet och känslor. Hos de omgivande barnen men också hos sig själv. På varje uppslag i boken "Inspiration till Känslighet" finns en hel värld att hämta, som en poetisk berättelse. När känsligheten får flyga fritt och flöda fram kan barnen få visa sig stort och berätta någonting om vem de är. Om vart de är på väg. Barnläkaren Lars H Gustafsson har inspirerat oss i TIllitsverket stort, han har skrivit en berättelse som efterord till boken. För det är vi mycket glada.Det var en gång... Ja, det vet vi ju alla.Så börjar en sann saga. När barnen får höra en saga kan det vara som en befrielse när det goda segrar. Det finns en ordning, trots att vi möter besvikelser och svårigheter i livet. Sagan inger hopp och mening. Sagorna och illustrationerna i boken "Sagor för känsliga" har skapats utur Tillitsverkets projekt Känslighet för att ge just sådan näring till barnen.Projektet Känslighet är finansierat av Allmänna arvsfonden och har utvecklats tillsammans med Malmö Förskoleförvaltning utbildningsområde C och Sveriges Förening om Högkänslighet.

Initiating readers in the fascinating and complex history of witchcraft, from the goddess mythologies of ancient cultures to the contemporary embrace of the craft by modern artists and activists, this expansive tome conjures up a breathtaking overview of an age-old tradition. Rooted in legend, folklore, and myth, the archetype of the witch has evolved from the tales of Odysseus and Circe, the Celtic seductress Cerridwen, and the myth of Hecate, fierce ruler of the moonlit night. In Witchcraft we survey her many incarnations since, as she shape-shifts through the centuries, alternately transforming into mother, nymph, and crone—seductress and destroyer.Edited by Jessica Hundley, and co-edited by author, scholar, and practitioner Pam Grossman, this enthralling visual chronicle is the first of its kind, a deep dive into the complex symbologies behind witchcraft traditions, as explored through the history of art itself. The witch has played muse to great artists throughout time, from the dark seductions of Francisco José de Goya and Albrecht Dürer to the elegant paean to the magickal feminine as re-imagined by the Surrealist circle of Remedios Varo, Leonora Carrington, and Leonor Fini. The witch has spellbound through folktales and dramatic literature as well, from the poison apples of The Brothers Grimm, to the Weird Sisters gathered at their black cauldron in Shakespeare’s Macbeth, to L. Frank Baum’s iconic Wicked Witch of the West, cackling over the fate of Dorothy.Throughout this entrancing visual voyage, we’ll also bear witness to the witch as she endures persecution and evolves into empowerment, a contemporary symbol of bold defiance and potent nonconformity. Featuring enlightening essays by modern practitioners like Kristen J. Sollée and Judika Illes, as well interviews with authors and scholars such as Madeline Miller and Juliet Diaz, Witchcraft includes a vast range of cultural traditions that embrace magick as spiritual exploration and creative catharsis.
Symbols and Allegories in Art

From antiquity, when the gods and goddesses were commonly featured in works of art, through to the twentieth century, when Surrealists drew on archetypes from the unconscious, artists have embedded symbols in their works. As with previous volumes in the Guide to Imagery series, the goal of this book is to provide contemporary readers and museum visitors with the tools to read the hidden meanings in works of art. This latest volume is divided thematically into four sections featuring symbols related to time, man, space (earth and sky), and allegories or moral lessons. Readers will learn, for instance, that night, the primordial mother of the cosmos, was often portrayed in ancient art as a woman wrapped in a black veil, whereas day or noon was often represented in Renaissance art as a strong, virile man evoking the full manifestation of the sun's energy Each entry in the book contains a main reference image in which details of the symbol or allegory being analyzed are called out for discussion.In the margin, for quick access by the reader, is a summary of the essential characteristics of the symbol in question, the derivation of its name, and the religious tradition from which it springs.

Female Nude
Art, Obscenity and Sexuality
AvLynda Nead
Häftad, Engelska, 2024
323 kr
Skickas
The history of Western art is saturated with images of the female body. Lynda Nead's The Female Nude was the first book to critically examine this phenomenon from a feminist perspective and ask: how and why did the female nude acquire this status?In a deft and engaging manner, Lynda Nead explores the ways in which acceptable and unacceptable images of the female body are produced, issues which have been reignited by current controversies around the patriarchy, objectification and pornography. Nead brilliantly illustrates the two opposing poles occupied by the female nude in the history of art; at one extreme the visual culmination of enlightenment aesthetics; at the other, spilling over into the degraded and the obscene. What both have in common, however, is the aim of containing the female body.Drawing on examples of art and artists from the classical period to the 1980s, The Female Nude paints a devastating picture of the depiction of the female body and remains as fresh and invigorating today as it was at the time of its first publication.This Routledge Classics edition includes a new Preface by the author.

AvPhilippe Charlier

275 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This exquisitely produced volume with a silk cover, colored edges, Swiss and Japanese tube binding, and ribbon ties explores Japan’s most haunting monsters through the eyes of its greatest printmakers. Japanese folklore teems with strange and spectral beings— yōkai that slither from wells, creep through forests, or inhabit forgotten household objects. These creatures have long reflected deep cultural anxieties and obsessions. Their influence endures today, pulsing through manga, anime, and horror cinema like walking nightmares haunting our daily lives. In follow up to his bestselling Yōkai Ghosts, Charlier examines these beings through their myths, habitats, and behaviors, uncovering the human fears and desires they embody.With the voice of a storyteller and the insight of a scholar, he traces how these spirits emerged from a world lit only by lanterns, when shadow and silence gave rise to the imagination’s most haunting macabre inventions. Organized thematically, the book’s chapters focus on particular types of yōkai—animal spirits, haunted objects, female demons, and more placing them in their cultural and historical context while revealing their continued relevance. More than a hundred woodblock prints by artists such as Hokusai, Kuniyoshi, Yoshitoshi, Kunisada, and Yoshimori bring these monsters vividly to life.Their dramatic and often humorous depictions helped shape how yōkai were seen and understood in the nineteenth century—and laid the foundation for visual traditions that continue today. Beautifully produced, this volume will appeal to readers fascinated by Japanese folklore, printmaking, horror, and the art of the uncanny.
Artemisia
AvAnna Banti
Häftad, Engelska, 2020
167 kr
Skickas
First published in 1953, Artemisia is a classic of 20th century Italian literature. From its first publication in 1953, Artemisia, a novel about Artemisia Gentileschi, an iconic 17th century painter, by Anna Banti, a brilliant Italian art historian, established itself as a feminist masterpiece. Like Penelope Fitzgerald’s The Blue Flower and Marguerite Yourcenar’s Memoirs of Hadrian, Artemisia is a book about the process of artistic creation. Much in Gentileschi’s life marked her out as a victim – rape at the age of 18, a forced marriage to a man she did not love and, a powerful, patriarchal father, Orazio Gentileschi, who failed to value her artistic genius. But Gentileschi did not accept the status of victim, in the years between 1610 and 1650; she produced over 50 paintings that have established her as one of the great painters of all time. She gave up everything – 'all tenderness, all claim to feminine virtues' to dedicate herself solely to painting. Sacrifices that Anna Banti, herself an artist, fully understands and captures in this amazing novel. 'What makes Artemisia a great book – and unique in Banti’s work – is this double destiny, of a book lost and re-created. A book that by being posthumous, rewritten, resurrected, gained incalculably in emotional reach and moral authority. A metaphor for literature, perhaps. And a metaphor for reading, militant reading – which, at its worthiest, is rereading – too.' Susan Sontag

What will become of us in these trying times? How will we pass the time that we have on earth? In gorgeously rendered graphic form, Light in Dark Times invites readers to consider these questions by exploring the political catastrophes and moral disasters of the past and present, revealing issues that beg to be studied, understood, confronted, and resisted.A profound work of anthropology and art, this book is for anyone yearning to understand the darkness and hoping to hold onto the light. It is a powerful story of encounters with writers, philosophers, activists, and anthropologists whose words are as meaningful today as they were during the times in which they were written. This book is at once a lament over the darkness of our times, an affirmation of the value of knowledge and introspection, and a consideration of truth, lies, and the dangers of the trivial. In a time when many of us struggle with the feeling that we cannot do enough to change the course of the future, this book is a call to action, asking us to envision and create an alternative world from the one in which we now live.Light in Dark Times is beautiful to look at and to hold – an exquisite work of art that is lively, informative, enlightening, deeply moving, and inspiring.

Roger Fry (1866–1934) and his role as critic, curator and member of the Bloomsbury Group are explored in this rich and vibrant biography. From his curation of one of the most important collections in New York and groundbreaking exhibitions in London to his launch of the Omega Workshops with Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant, Fry introduced Post-Impressionism, radicalised interiors and changed the landscape of twentieth-century art. His introduction of Cézanne, Van Gogh and Matisse to a British audience played a significant role in a legacy that still inspires today.Often overlooked, Fry was one of the most influential figures in twentieth-century art in Britain, giving a generation of modern artists their first exhibitions, while also creating art himself. Roger Fry: Bloomsbury and the Invention of Modern Art offers a compelling portrait of his extraordinary career and his pivotal role in redefining British art.
