American Impressionism and Realism: The Painting of Modern Life, 1885-1915by Doreen Bolger, H. Barbara WeinbergISBN 0810964376 (0-8109-6437-6)
Hardcover, Harry N Abrams Inc

› Find signed collectible books: 'American Impressionism and Realism: The Painting of Modern Life, 1885-1915'Book summary:The American Impressionists, who came of age during the 1890s, and the Realists - especially the group known as the Ashcan School - who challenged them after 1900, were allied in their commitment to portraying the everyday experiences of modern life. The book explores these artists' responses to the world around them, and their simultaneous embrace and elision of their era's perplexing novelties. It presents in thematic groups their portrayals of burgeoning cities, which they tended to view through "rose-colored glasses"; the countryside abroad, where they found respite in an old-fashioned rural existence and in camaraderie afforded by art colonies; and the countryside back in the United States, particularly in New England, rural Pennsylvania, and other locales redolent of tradition. Also included in the exhibition are depictions of people pursuing leisure-time recreation at the beach, on picnics, or in other hospitable settings; artfully concocted studio setups and portraits; and vignettes of the lives of women and children. A final section includes several paintings by James McNeill Whistler, Winslow Homer, and Thomas Eakins, who also flourished about 1900 and influenced the American Impressionists and Realists. [via]

De s'auto-raconter. Le résultat est impressionnant. Une sorte de bible. Un monument de l'édition à l'iconographie somptueuse et dense. Un bel objet que le fan des Fab Four digne de ce nom se doit de posséder. Et si les plus calés n'apprendront sûrement rien de nouveau, cette Anthology propose de raconter chronologiquement et dans ses moindres détails l'incroyable aventure de ces quatre garçons dans le vent. Un conte de fées d'autant plus fascinant qu'il durera moins d'une décennie. Quel autre groupe pourrait en effet se targuer d'une oeuvre aussi importante et essentielle en si peu de temps ? Collage subtil d'interviews fleuves, archives photographiques de premier ordre (les premières années de la saga sont à cet égard copieusement servies en images inédites), The Beatles Anthology se feuillette au gré des humeurs, avec une écoute parallèle des albums, ou tout simplement en suivant le déroulement des événements. Unique bémol dans cette entreprise passionnante, l'absence de regard vraiment critique. Contrôlant totalement l'ouvrage, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr et Yoko Ono (dans le rôle du défunt) n'incluent qu'homéopathiquement la remise en question ou l'analyse critique. Mais malgré cet aspect "version officielle", The Beatles Anthology demeure un superbe livre pour tous les fans de musique. --Marc Zisman [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Dali: Master of Fantasies'Book summary:Salvador Dalí (1904-1988) was one of the most popular and most visible artists of the last century, known for his provocative works and his larger-than-life personality. He created an astoundingly diverse body of work, including paintings, drawings, prints, book illustration, films, and stage sets. Whatever the medium, his works were filled with dreamlike, fetishistic images rendered in a precise, hyperrealist style. In this fascinating account, art historian Jean-Louis Gaillemin focuses on the intimate details of Dalí's life, especially his intense relationship with his longtime partner Gala, and how his psychological views and state of mind influenced his work.

While the Papal city of Rome burns - brutally sacked by an invading army including Protestant heretics - two of her most interesting and wily citizens slip away, their stomachs churning on the jewels they have swallowed as the enemy breaks down their doors. Though almost as damaged as their beloved city, Fiammetta Bianchini and Bucino Teodoldi - a fabulous courtesan and her dwarf companion - are already planning their future. They head for the shimmering beauty of Venice, a honey pot of wealth and trade where they start to rebuild their business. As a partnership they are invincible: Bucino, clever with a sharp eye and a wicked tongue and Fiammetta, beautiful and shrewd, trained from birth to charm, entertain and satisfy men who have the money to support her. Venice, however, is a city which holds its own temptations. From the admiring Turk in search of human novelties for his Sultan's court, to the searing passion of a young lover who wants more than his allotted nights. But the greatest challenge comes from a young blind woman, a purveyor of health and beauty, who insinuates her way into their lives with devastating consequences for them all. [via]

The Private Collection of Edgar Degasby Gary Tinterow, Colta Ives, Ann Dumas, Susan Alyson SteinISBN 0810965127 (0-8109-6512-7)
Hardcover, Harry N Abrams Inc

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Private Collection of Edgar Degas'Book summary:When Edgar Degas died in 1917, his heirs found crate after crate gathering dust in the rented rooms inhabited by the isolated old artist. The opened containers revealed one of the greatest personal art collections of all time: There were paintings, drawings, and prints by El Greco, Ingres, Delacroix, Daumier, Cassatt, Manet, van Gogh, Cézanne, and Degas himself, including the famous Bellelli Family, a work from his youth that Degas could never bear to part with. When his heirs auctioned off the collection in 1918, governments granted national museums special funds to make purchases, even though it was the height of World War I and money was tight. The museums, it turned out, were also aided by the war--on the day of the sale, cannon fire sent most bidders running for cover. The ones who remained got bargain prices. This gorgeous book is filled with color plates of many of the paintings, and its 14 thoughtful essays are invaluable to comprehending the tastes of a single artist, one with the eye and the wherewithal to put together such an amazing collection.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Rendezvous: Masterpieces from the Centre Georges Pompidou and the Guggenheim Museums'Book summary:This volume surveys the history of Modern art, from the turn of the century to approximately 1970. A unique and unprecedented partnership between the Guggenheim Museum and the Musae national d'art moderne brings together more than 300 paintings, sculptures and drawings by over 150 artists, including Joseph Beuys, Jean Dubuffet, Max Ernst, Yves Klein, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso and Jackson Pollock. The Musae and the Guggenheim represent two distinct kinds of museums: a public, government-run institution and a private museum. The former is one institution within a multidisciplinary cultural center; the latter has grown from a private collection of non-objective painting into a network of international museums of Modern and Contemporary art. One originally celebrated almost exclusively the Modern art produced in France, the other various abstract painters from the European avant-garde. Thus does Rendezvous allow a dialogue between two museums renowned for their contributions to the history of Modernism. [via]

A Season in Hell and the Drunken Boatby N RimbaudISBN 0811201856 (0-8112-0185-6)

› Find signed collectible books: 'A Season in Hell and the Drunken Boat'Book summary:The classic influential poems by Rimbaud, in a bilingual en face edition featuring acclaimed translations by Louise Varése.
Although he stopped writing at the age of nineteen, Arthur Rimbaud (1854-1891) possessed the most revolutionary talent of the past hundred years, and his poetry and prose have increasingly influenced the major writers of our century. To his masterpiece A Season in Hell is here added Rimbaud's longest and possibly greatest single poem The Drunken Boat, with the original French en face.
The reputation of A Season in Hell, which is a poetic record of a man's examination of his own depths, has steadily increased over the years. Upon the first publication of Mrs. Varese's translation by New Directions, the Saturday Review wrote: "One may at last suggest that the translation of A Season in Hell has reached a conclusive point..." Concerning the twenty-five-stanza The Drunken Boat, Dr. Enid Starkie of Oxford University has written: "(It is) an anthology of separate lines of astonishing evocative magic which linger in the mind like isolated jewels." Rimbaud's life was so extraordinary that it has taken on the quality of a myth. A biographical chronology is included in this book.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Turner: The Great Watercolors'Book summary:A Royal Academy of Arts Publication
J. M. W. Turner (1775-1851) is considered Britain's greatest painter. While he is best known for his stunning oils, Turner also created major works in watercolor, many of which rival his oils in their breadth of scale, depth of tone, richness of color, and wealth of detail. This handsome volume, published on the 150th anniversary of Turner's death to accompany an unparalleled exhibition of his finished watercolors at the Royal Academy of Arts, London, is a milestone in Turner scholarship.
Eric Shanes, a well-known expert on Turner and curator of the related exhibition, places the artist's watercolors in the wider context of his painted work and provides individual commentaries on the approximately 200 lush colorplates. Evelyn Joll investigates the market forces that brought Turner's watercolors into being, while Andrew Wilton analyzes their extraordinary effect on the art of later watercolorists. Finally, Ian Warrell discusses the critical reception to the work of this prodigiously talented artist. Turner: The Great Watercolours will stand at the forefront of thinking on Turner for years to come. ERIC SHANES is a leading expert on Turner and founding editor of Turner Studies (1980-1991).
EVELYN JOLL is an independent art historian based in London.
IAN WARRELL is a curator at Tate Britain.
ANDREW WILTON is keeper and senior research fellow, Tate Britain.
