Rodin’s Egypt

'An adventure to rival David Grann's Lost City of Z, and a riveting exposé of the plunder that still fills the world's top art museums' Zeke Faux, author or Number Go Up 'Immaculately researched and beautifully written, a gripping real-life exposé of the ugly deals that underpin the trade in beautiful objects' Oliver Bullough, author of Moneyland An unbelievable table of greed, looted treasures and stolen history in the world's biggest art heist. In the shattered aftermath of Cambodia's civil war, temples that had stood for centuries were found ransacked - sacred sculptures hacked from pedestals, towering statues of Hindu gods and priceless relics of the Khmer Empire vanished. At the centre of this vast plunder, British expatriate Douglas Latchford, whose decades-long obsession fuelled one of the most audacious cultural thefts of modern times. From the Killing Fields of the Khmer Rouge to the marble galleries of New York and London and the private collections of the rich and famous, The Man Who Stole the Gods unravels a breathtaking story of power, greed and corruption, and asks what you take from a nation when you steal its past. Drawing on years of investigation and exclusive access to the stories' key players - from temple looters and traffickers to the investigators and archaeologists fighting to bring masterpieces home - award-winning writer Matthew Campbell reveals how the treasures of one of the world's greatest civilizations were stolen, sold and finally found. From the author of Dead in the Water, called 'a masterpiece' by the New York Times

A True Story of War, Obsession, and the World's Biggest Art Heist

The Man Who Stole the Gods

*Winner of the Elizabeth Longford Prize and the Franco-British Society Literary Award* *Shortlisted for the Duff Cooper Prize* A magnificent biography of the founder of Impressionism In the course of a long and exceptionally creative life, Claude Monet revolutionized painting and made some of the most iconic images in western art. Behind this great and famous artist is a volatile, voracious, nervous yet reckless man, largely unknown. Jackie Wullschläger's enthralling biography, based on thousands of never-before translated letters and unpublished sources, is the first account of Monet's turbulent private life and how it determined his expressive, sensuous, sensational painting. Monet said he was driven 'wild with the need to put down what I experience'. This rich and moving biography immerses us in that passionate experience, transforming our understanding of the man, his paintings and the fullness of his achievement.

In the course of a long and exceptionally creative life, Claude Monet revolutionized painting and made some of the most iconic images in western art. Yet behind this great and famous artist is a volatile, voracious, nervous yet reckless man, largely unknown. Jackie Wullschläger's enthralling biography, based on thousands of never-before translated letters and unpublished sources, is the first account of Monet's turbulent private life and how it determined his expressive, sensuous, sensational painting. He was as obsessional in his love affairs as in his love of nature, and changed his art decisively three times when the woman at the centre of his life changed. His work also responded intensely to outside cataclysms - the Dreyfus Affair, the First World War. Prime Minister Georges Clemenceau was his closest friend. Rich intellectual currents connected him to writers from Zola to Proust; affection and rivalry to Renoir, Pissarro and Manet. Monet said he was driven 'wild with the need to put down what I experience'. This rich and moving biography immerses us in that passionate experience, transforming our understanding of the man, his paintings and the fullness of his achievement.

This book invites readers to encounter an artist 
whose work is defined by encounters: cashmere 
meets chipboard, wood meets leather, glass meets 
metal. The focus is on the colourful pieces he has 
created since 2023, which, compared with earlier 
works, increasingly extend into space. An interview 
with Henrik Eiben (b. 1975) offers direct insight into 
his artistic ideas.

Timeless sculptures between presence and absence - an insight into the unique artistic world of Walter Moroder
 Walter Moroder is one of the most distinctive sculptors of our time. His life-size figures, which refuse any imitation of human existence, embody a state of waiting, silence, and stillness - creating a powerful interplay of presence and absence.&nbsp;
 This monograph presents, for the first time, a comprehensive overview of more than 
 three decades of his artistic career.
 Structured into 16 chapters and enriched with large-format images, it allows readers to experience the depth and uniqueness of Moroder's work.&nbsp;
 Book Highlights:&nbsp;
 <ul><li>Comprehensive monograph covering 30 years of artistic creation</li><li>Life-size sculptures of existential intensity&nbsp;</li><li>16 chapters offering a clear overview and art-historical context&nbsp;</li><li>Large-format illustrations and sophisticated book design&nbsp;</li>
 </ul>A must-have volume for collectors, art lovers, and anyone fascinated by the power of contemporary sculpture.Markus Klammer is an editor, art critic, and curator of numerous exhibitions of modern and contemporary art, with publications and texts on Heinz Gappmayr, Rémy Zaugg, Gerhard Merz, Michele Bernardi, Hugo Vallazza (selection). Hatje Cantz published his monograph on Gianpietro Carlesso in 2014. Markus Klammer lives and works in Bolzano (Italy).Walter Moroder (born 1963) comes from a renowned family of sculptors in Val Gardena (Italy). During his training, he went through all the stages of the region's craft and artistic tradition, only to leave them behind after studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich (graduating in 1988) and making a decisive decision about his future direction. His sculptural exploration of the forms of the human body confirms his affinity for classical sculpture, but in conjunction with a decidedly postmodern visual thinking that goes beyond figurative, abstract, or neo-expressive conventions.

Walter Moroder. Figures of Presence and Absence

The World According To

A compact, illustrated collection of Henri Matisse's insights into art and life. In addition to being a formidable artist, Henri Matisse (1869-1954) was a prolific letter writer and regular contributor to many publications. Following in the successful format of 'The World According to ...' series, this anthology of quotations unites Matisse's thoughts and artworks to construct a unique view of the world, as seen through the eyes of one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century. Covering topics ranging from fame - 'An artist must never be ... a prisoner of success' - to war and occupation - 'All is well here, but we see things that are hilarious and dreadful all at once' - art - 'All colours sing together; they have the essential force of a choir' - and work - 'When you work to please other people, you achieve nothing' - The World According to Matisse paints a picture of a life as lively as it was rich. Beautifully designed and illustrated with works of art from throughout Matisse's storied career, this is the perfect gift for art lovers everywhere.

Dieser Band widmet sich dem inneren Gesichtsgefühl als bestimmendes Phänomen der Poesie und Theorie der Malerei der Russischen Moderne. Einen Bogen spannend von der Ikone über den Suprematismus bis zur Gesichtslosigkeit der Gulag-Konzentrationslager untersucht die Studie das Gesicht, ausgehend von einer inneren taktilen Sensibilität. Das Gesicht stellt einen Übergangsbereich dar an der Schnittstelle zwischen dem Optischen und dem Taktilen. Identität gründet sich auf die Vorstellung vom Gesicht, wie es aus der Distanz von anderen gesehen wird. Gleichzeitig ist es untrennbar mit dem Nervensystem verbunden: Es wird fortwährend mit jenen Organen des Kopfes - Muskeln, Zunge, Haut - empfunden, die Distanz aufheben. So stellt sich das Gesicht als dünne Schicht dar, als Membran an der Schwelle von Innerem und Äußerem, vom Selbst und seiner Repräsentation.<ul> <li>Erste Studie zur Taktilität des Gesichts in Literatur und Malerei</li> <li>Einzigartiger interdisziplinärer Ansatz zur Interaktion zwischen Bild undKörper in der Russischen Moderne</li> <li>Stellt traditionelle Vorstellungen des Porträts in der Kunstgeschichte in Frage</li></ul>

Zeit, wenngleich unsichtbar, ist sinnlich wahrnehmbar und ein wesentlicher Faktor bildlicher Darstellung. Im Bild zeigt sie sich, wenn kleine oder große Ereignisse miteinander in Beziehung gesetzt werden. Das Buch beschäftigt sich mit diesem In-Beziehung-Setzen als bildkünstlerischer Zeit-Erzeugung und nimmt dabei insbesondere situative Beziehungen in den Blick. Sie werden individuell gesetzt und haben anders als die großen christlichen Zeitordnungen keine regulierende Funktion. Indem sie sich 'der Zeit' nicht als großes Ganzes annähern, sondern Zeit über die Erfahrbarkeit von Dauer, Gleichzeitigkeit oder Zählbarkeit erschließen, rücken sie das Dargestellte an die Lebenswelt der Gläubigen an. In den Blick genommen werden diese Zusammenhänge anhand von Werken aus Spätantike, frühem und hohem Mittelalter. Damit steht eine Zeitspanne im Mittelpunkt, deren Artefakte bisher kaum auf eine differenzierte Reflexion des Zeitlichen hin befragt wurden.

Examining Christian artworks from Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, this book explores how time is visualised in images and for what purposes. The focus is on the temporal relationships created in specific situations that reveal 'time' not as a grand whole, but in its various facets. Aspects such as duration and simultaneity thus become means of creating artistic sense-making.

PULS, an initiative of Bukarest's National Museum for Contemporary Art (MNAC) began during the COVID-crisis. Since then, the museum supports Romanian artists by biennially purchasing more than 100 relevant creative works, carefully selected from a large pool of submissions by a democratic jury of artists and art professionals. PULS22 showcases in book-form MNAC's most recent acquisitions and their subsequent exhibition. This volume, like the former PULS20, is an exciting panoramic snapshot of the country's dynamic multigenerational art scene. The installation shots speak of an outstanding exhibition and the potential for future loans to curated shows elsewhere.

Séverin Guelpa, geboren 1974, ist eine der starken Stimmen in der Schweizer Gegenwartskunst. Von Genf aus arbeitet er an der Schnittstelle von Kunst, Wissenschaft und der Erkundung gesellschaftlicher Phänomene. Guelpa untersucht, wie Erschütterungen - geophysikalische, soziale oder emotionale - zur Triebkraft für die Entwicklung neuer Perspektiven werden können. Seit 2022 entsteht sein Werkkomplex 
 Trembling,
 in dem er Materialien wie Erde, Stein und Beton sowie verschiedene Medien wie Zeichnung, Skulptur, Video und Drucktechniken zu eindringlichen Gleichnissen einer Welt im Wandel verknüpft. Seine Videoarbeit 
 Times Parallax
 wirft einen globalen Blick auf das Verhältnis zwischen Mensch, Technologie und Natur.
 In diesem Buch führen eindrucksvolle Bildstrecken durch Guelpas Arbeitswelten - von Wüsten und Gebirge bis hinein in industrielle Tiefen - und machen seine physische, ortsbezogene Arbeitsweise erfahrbar. Die Kritikerin und Kuratorin Deborah Keller beschreibt sein Schaffen mit analytischer Schärfe und erzählerischer Leichtigkeit. Im Gespräch mit Dorothea Strauss geht Guelpa auf Aspekte wie Verantwortung, Unsicherheit und die Rolle der Kunst in einer erschütterten Welt ein. So vereint Trembling künstlerische Praxis, Reflexion und Materialität zu einem dichten, bildstarken, international anschlussfähigen Kunst- und Zeitdokument.

A fresh perspective on the work of Keith Haring—one of the world’s most beloved contemporary artists—with a special focus on his three-dimensional work

From the moment he landed in NYC in 1978, Keith Haring took three-dimensional objects—whether discards on the street, household appliances, or subway walls—as his atypical canvas. From cars to vases to refrigerators and even a sarcophagus, these could often be rich sites of collaboration with artist contemporaries including Jean-Michel Basquiat, Kenny Scharf, and LA2 (Angel Ortiz) among others. Extending his unmistakable mark-making to clothes, stage sets, and bodies inspired creative connections beyond the boundaries of the art world: Haring collaborated with the likes of Grace Jones, Bill T. Jones, Madonna, and Annie Leibovitz, the last of whom photographed Haring in an now-famous session during which he made his own body a canvas, painting himself to blend into an elaborate 3D environment. Although his career was brief, Keith Haring’s sculpture practice was a significant and integral facet of his extensive oeuvre, with his three-dimensional artworks found in museums and art collections worldwide.

Keith Haring in 3D illuminates this rarely explored dimension of Haring’s work, and its role in his enduring legacy. The book’s generous format and engaging design, including more than 350 illustrations, invites readers to immerse themselves in the world Haring created. Featuring archival photographs of Haring at work, stunning reproductions of his art in three dimensions, and a trove of essays by respected curators, scholars, and collectors, Keith Haring in 3D celebrates in stunning detail the buoyant, brilliant work of one of the world’s most iconic artists.

Gegen Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts setzten Frauen die Kamera, damals noch ein neuer technischer Apparat, ein, um ein unabhängiges Leben als professionelle Fotografinnen zu führen. In nördlichen Ländern hatten Fotografinnen eine besonders starke Position, da sich mit Hilfe der Fotografie persönliche, wirtschaftliche und politische Unabhängigkeit erzielen ließ. Viele von ihnen stellten nur weibliche Assistenten an und blieben unverheiratet; einige lebten in lebenslangen Beziehungen mit Frauen. Diese Pionierinnen gehörten einer Generation an, die erstmals die Macht hatte, ihre eigene visuelle Darstellung, sowie die anderer Frauen, zu definieren. Durch ein breites Spektrum an Fallstudien bietet diese Publikation eine Gegengeschichte zu bestehenden Historien von Fotografie, und zeigt erstmals das befreiende Potenzial des Mediums für Frauen auf.<ul> <li>Gegennarrative von weiblicher Unabhängigkeit in der Fotografiegeschichte</li> <li>Beleuchtet Leben und Werk bislang unbekannter nordischer Fotografinnen</li><li>Mit Beiträgen führender Expert*innen für Fotografie aus Dänemark, Norwegen, Schweden, Finnland und Island</li></ul>

Striving for Independence

European Identities and Transcultural Exchange

Francesco Bordoni (1574-1654), der seine Ausbildung im Florenz von Giambologna erhielt, war zwischen der Toskana der Medici und Frankreich tätig, wo er zum ersten Bildhauer der Bourbonen aufstieg. In dieser Position arbeitete er an großen königlichen Aufträgen - vom Reiterstandbild am Pont-Neuf bis zu den Skulpturen in den Gärten von Fontainebleau- sowie an bedeutenden Kunstwerken aus Italien. Diese Publikation rekonstruiert Bordonis Karriere und seine Rolle auf königlichen Baustellen sowie die Zusammenarbeit mit französischen und italienischen Meistern, darunter die Ingenieure Francini. Durch Archivrecherchen und kritische Interpretationen seiner Werke, eröffnet die Studie nicht nur neue Sichtweisen auf Bordoni sondern auch auf die künstlerischen Praktiken, Netzwerke und Mäzene, die Florenz und Paris miteinander verbanden.<ul> <li>Schlüsselpersönlichkeit für künstlerische Mobilität der Frühen Neuzeit</li> <li>Künstler, der für die herausragenden Leistungen steht, die die Medici förderten</li></ul>
