Asserting the central role of the dressed body in art throughout history, this catalogue presents fashion as an essential expression of creativity and identityFashion transforms our bodies. Exploring this concept through the lens of age, size, gender, and disability, Costume Art demonstrates how the clothed body is central to artistic expression and representation. The luxuriously designed book features a die-cut cover, three specialty papers, debossed details, and metallic silver foils. New assemblages created specifically for this volume by artist Julie Wolfe, composed of photographs by stylist and designer Nathalie Agussol, highlight the connection between art and fashion through collage, overlay, and juxtaposition.&nbsp;The contemporary and historic fashions draw on a range of artistic inspirations-from Greek molded cuirass armor and carved Roman sculptures to manuscripts, enameled decorative figures, and grand painted canvases. New photography by Paul Westlake of designs by makers such as Madame Grès, Alexander McQueen, Rick Owens, and Madeleine Vionnet-some dressed on bespoke mannequins made by scanning real people-reevaluates idealized representations of the human form. Bookended by essays from art and design scholar Llewellyn Negrin and award-winning author Andrew Solomon, the texts reveal the ways the body shapes how we dress and how we understand ourselves and others. &nbsp; Published by The Metropolitan Museum of Art/Distributed by Yale University PressExhibition Schedule:The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (May 10, 2026-January 10, 2027)

<div>The Artist’s Garden offers an intriguing study into 20 gardens that have inspired and been home to some of the greatest painters from history. This&nbsp;sumptuously illustrated and fascinating book delves into the&nbsp;stories behind the gardens which inspired some of the most beautiful and important works of art. These gardens not only supplied the inspiration for creative works but also illuminate the&nbsp;professional motivation and private life of the artists themselves – from Cezanne’s house in the south of France to Childe Hassam at Celia Thaxter’s garden off the coast off Maine. Flowers and gardens have often been the first choice for artists looking for a subject. A garden close to the artist’s studio is not only convenient for daily material and ideas, but also has the advantage of changing through the seasons and over time. Claude Monet’s Giverny was the catalyst for hundreds of great paintings (by Monet and other artists), each one different from the one before. Sometimes a whole village becomes the focus for a colony of artists as at Gerberoy in Picardy and Skagen on the northernmost tip of Denmark. This book is about the real homes and gardens that inspired these great artists – gardens that can still be visited today. The relationship between artist and garden is a complex one. A few artists, including Pierre Bonnard and his neighbour Monet were keen gardeners, as much in love with their plants as their work, while for others like Sorolla in Madrid, his courtyard home was both a sanctuary and a source of ideas. This book is as unmissable for art lovers as it is for anyone who knows the joy of time spent in gardens, offering an intriguing insight into the lives of these great painters and the gardens which inspired them to their creative heights. Now available in paperback.&nbsp;</div>

The secret spaces that inspired great art

The Artist's Garden

'Utterly gripping, enraging, entertaining - and important. I can't recommend it highly enough' Jennifer Higgie In 1958, talented and fearless and eighteen years old, Liliane Lijn left her family home and moved to Paris alone to become an artist. Once there, she found an art world filled with the wild energy of creative revolution - peopled and controlled almost entirely by men. Embracing the bohemian spirit of the Left Bank, Lijn built a life for herself in the city, befriending artists, poets and revolutionaries and creating ground-breaking sculptures with light, text and movement, despite being told again and again that there are no great women artists. Liquid Reflections is her sparkling memoir of these years of experiment and adventure. Based on personal diaries from the time, this is a riveting and revelatory portrait of the artist as a young woman. 'A whirlwind of encounters . . . a pioneer in melding art, poetry and science' Art Basel

The first comprehensive survey of Baselitz's printmaking Celebrating six decades of print making, A Life In Print is the first comprehensive book on an important part of Georg Baselitz' artistic practice. Considered to be one of the greatest painters alive and credited to have revived Figuration in a time when Abstraction ruled the art world, the German artist started to explore different print techniques beginning in 1964, and never stopped to see them as an integral part of his work. While his contemporaries used new offset and screen-print techniques to create what amounted to reproductions in often high editions, Baselitz rejected the Zeitgeist and explored century old techniques like dry point etchings, aquatinta, wood and linocuts, while tirelessly pushing his own artistic limits. The book brings together more than 245 prints and introduces the reader to all major themes and motives of Baselitz career, from the so-called Heroes of the mid-60ies to his iconic images of Eagles to the manyfold portraits of his wife Elke. The book forcefully makes the point that no other artist since Picasso has done more for and in that genre than Baselitz. Edited by Cornelius Tittel in close collaboration with the Baselitz Archive in Munich, the book features an anthology of the quintessential historic texts on Baselitz' printmaking - amongst others by himself, fellow artist Per Kirkeby and art historians like Michael Semff and Reiner Michael Mason. A new essay by Frode Sandvik, curator at Kode Museum, explores the shared affinities in the print work of Edvard Munch and Georg Baselitz.

Baselitz. A Life In Print

A Sunday Times Bestseller A thought-provoking work by a singular voice, this short, sharp essay invites us to critically reconsider power, ideology and the boundaries of free speech. Invisible, invasive and widely taken for granted, censorship is a globalized force as much driven by commercial interests as political agendas. Ai Weiwei - artist, activist and one of the world's most influential cultural figures - has first-hand experience of its power. In this urgent piece of writing, he makes a rallying cry for free speech in an age shaped by big data, mass surveillance and intrusive new technologies of control. Ai Weiwei examines how censorship persists both in the overt propagandizing and redactions of authoritarian regimes, as well as subtly within democratic frameworks, exploring how international corporations, cultural institutions, social media and so-called ideologies of 'freedom' have provided fertile ground for new, more insidious, suppressions.

The first major biography on artist Louise Bourgeois brings the life and work of an iconic twentieth-century artist into sharp focus"The mischievous French artist comes alive in this deeply personal biography."-Chloë Ashby, Times (UK) &nbsp; Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) was one of the most important artists of the twentieth century. She is known for a body of work that spans sculpture, painting, and printmaking but eludes any aesthetic classification. Her life and art were so intertwined that it is often difficult to tell them apart. In her own words: "Sculpture is the body. My body is the sculpture." &nbsp; Marie-Laure Bernadac's biography of Bourgeois traces the career of a great artist, her training, and her influences, as it tells the story of an exceptional woman's life. Featuring personal photographs as well as reproductions of her work, this landmark publication is the first major biography to draw on the artist's unpublished personal archives, including diaries, correspondence, and psychoanalytic writings, as well as the many interviews she gave and the reminiscences of those who knew her. Bernadac elucidates Bourgeois's friendships and rivalries with other major figures, including sculptor Louise Nevelson and Museum of Modern Art director Alfred H. Barr Jr. She also draws on Bourgeois's well-known fascination with psychoanalysis to explore the deeply autobiographical nature of her artwork. This erudite and keenly insightful biography pays tribute to the talent of the artist and the complexity of the person.

Shortlisted for the Women's Prize for Non-Fiction An insightful dual biography of brother and sister artists Gwen and Augustus John. 'Outstanding' - The Guardian 'Superb' - The Telegraph 'A must read' - Anne Sebba 'Lively' - The Times They seemed to be polar opposites . . . Augustus: vivid, volatile and promiscuous. He was a hero among romantics and bohemians, celebrated as one of the great British talents of his generation. Gwen's art was magnificent, but she was also more reserved, and as a woman she struggled for the recognition which has only come to her now, years after her death. Artists, Siblings, Visionaries by Judith Mackrell is a riveting story of love, infidelity, betrayal, and of two extraordinary siblings whose art and lives subverted society's expectations.

A new understanding of Marcel Duchamp and his significance as an artist through an investigation of his non-art activities—archiving, art-dealing, and, most persistently, curating. This groundbreaking and richly illustrated book tells a new story of the twentieth century's most influential artist, recounted not so much through his artwork as through his “non-art” work. Marcel Duchamp is largely understood in critical and popular discourse in terms of the objects he produced, whether readymade or meticulously fabricated. Elena Filipovic asks us instead to understand Duchamp's art through activities not normally seen as artistic—from exhibition making and art dealing to administrating and publicizing. These were no occasional pursuits; Filipovic argues that for Duchamp, these fugitive tasks were a veritable lifework. Drawing on many rarely seen images, Filipovic traces a variety of practices and projects undertaken by Duchamp from 1913 to 1969, from his invention of the readymade to the release of his last, posthumous work. She examines Duchamp's note writing, archiving, and quasi-photographic activities, which resulted in the Box of 1914 and the Green Box; his art dealing, marketing, and curating that culminated in experimental exhibitions for the Surrealists and his miniature museum, The Boîte-en-valise; and his administrative efforts and clandestine maneuvering in order to posthumously embed his Étant donnés into a museum. Demonstrating how those activities reflect the artist's questioning of reproduction and originality, as well as photography and the exhibition, Filipovic proposes that Duchamp's “non-art” labor, and in particular his curatorial strategies, more than merely accompanied his more famous artworks; in a certain sense, they made them. Through Duchamp's elusive but vital activities he revised the idea of what a modern artist could be. With this fascinating book, Filipovic in turn revises the very idea of Duchamp.
