A primera vista, las acuarelas de animales a gran escala tan sumamente detalladas recuerdan a los grabados de los ilustradores del siglo XIX John James Audubon y Edward Lear. Una segunda mirada más de cerca, sin embargo, revela un complejo universo perturbadoramente antropomórfico, lleno de símbolos, bromas pícaras y alusiones a la cualidad ''operística'' de la historia natural tradicional.En este universo visual asombroso y siniestro a un tiempo, las bestias y los pájaros no son meros objetos estéticos sino más bien actores dinámicos en batallas alegóricas: un pavo aplastando a un pequeño loro con sus garras, una colección de monos causando estragos en una mesa formalmente dispuesta, o un búfalo rodeado por una manada de lobos blancos ensangrentados. Las imágenes, deslumbrantes acuarelas, impresionan tanto por su impecable realismo como por su complejo contenido.Disponible originalmente en edición limitada y firmada, este volumen actualizado de Pancha Tantra es el estudio más exhaustivo de la obra de Ford hasta la fecha, que incluye más de 20 nuevas obras del artista. Ofrece detalles deslumbrantes, una exploración en profundidad de su universo visual, una biografía completa y extractos de los textos que le sirvieron de inspiración: desde cuentos populares indios y las cartas de Benjamin Franklin a la Autobiografía de Benvenutto Cellini y la Ornithological Biography de John James Audubon.

Julian Schnabel convierte la vida en arte y encuentra los asuntos de sus obras en el tejido de lo cotidiano. Utiliza platos rotos como soporte inesperado para sus cuadros y pinta sobre terciopelo, cubiertas de puestos de mercado, fondos de teatro kabuki, lonas militares y de cuadriláteros de boxeo: materiales encontrados que aportan su propia historia a la exploración del artista. Tras el éxito fulgurante de su primera exposición individual en Nueva York en 1979, que lo convirtió en el abanderado del regreso de la pintura, trabajó con todo tipo de medios: realizó esculturas que trasponen sus pinturas al espacio tridimensional como artefactos en bruto, aparentemente desgastados por el paso del tiempo, dirigió películas premiadas que retratan a artistas y otras figuras sutilmente heroicas, e incluso hizo realidad su sueño de construir un palacio veneciano en Nueva York. ''Quiero que mi vida esté en mi obra, comprimida en mi pintura como un coche prensado. De lo contrario, mi trabajo solo son cosas'', ha dicho Schnabel, y esta urgencia impregna su obra sin importar qué soportes o medios elija. Esta monografía de TASCHEN, realizada en estrecha colaboración con el artista, está ahora disponible en una edición popular que presenta la rica variedad de la obra de Schnabel con una profundidad sin precedentes. Completan el volumen textos de amigos y colaboradores: Laurie Anderson elabora una semblanza íntima de Schnabel, en tres ensayos de comisarios e historiadores del arte, Éric de Chassey analiza la pintura, Bonnie Clearwater la escultura y Max Hollein sus obras in situ, Donatien Grau escribe sobre el Palazzo Chupi, la extravagante casa del artista en el West Village de Nueva York, y el novelista Daniel Kehlmann explora su obra cinematográfica. Esta edición le permitirá estudiar las superficies y las acciones y gestos artísticos de Schnabel, y le dará la oportunidad de sentir su arte de un modo que solo experimentarlo en persona puede superar.

Walt Disney soñó durante décadas con crear el mejor complejo de entretenimiento, pero no fue hasta principios de la década de 1950 cuando empezó a hacer realidad su sueño gracias a un equipo al que seleccionó personalmente. Juntos, artistas, arquitectos e ingenieros transformaron un polvoriento campo de naranjos en uno de los destinos más queridos del mundo. En la actualidad hay parques Disney en todo el mundo, desde París hasta Shanghái, pero el original en Anaheim, California, visitado hasta la fecha por más de 800 millones de personas, sigue siendo una de las atracciones turísticas más populares de Estados Unidos. Desde el día de su inauguración, el 17 de julio de 1955, Disneyland hizo historia dando vida a los cuentos de hadas. Trajo el futuro al presente y nos acercó a culturas remotas e incluso a galaxias muy lejanas. Esta historia visual se sirve de las extensas colecciones históricas de Disney, de archivos privados y de la era dorada del fotoperiodismo para proporcionar un acceso único al concepto, desarrollo, lanzamiento y disfrute de este oasis de diversión y fantasía bañado por el sol. Disneyland incluye documentación sobre las primeras inspiraciones e ideas de Walt para el parque, los extraordinarios logros en cuanto a diseño e ingeniería y todas sus áreas temáticas de Main Street U.S.A. a Tomorrowland. Se trata de un valioso tesoro compuesto por documentación original de Disney y la colaboración del galardonado escritor Chris Nichols, que aporta su extenso conocimiento sobre Disneyland y la historia del sur de California para desvelar el fascinante relato del ''lugar más feliz de la Tierra''.Copyright © 2024 Disney Enterprises, Inc.

2021 saw the rise of anti-racism, as white people sought to be better allies to people of colour.

As the temperature rises in Gaborone, Precious Ramotswe, founder of the No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency, wonders whether the heat could be the reason that business is particularly slow. Luckily, a slower pace in life is her natural preference, unlike her colleague Mma Makutsi, who is alert to every passing observation and inclined to making snap decisions.

What, after all, could be more straightforward than a family matter?Meanwhile, their colleague Charlie is behaving oddly, borrowing Mma Ramotswe’s van and returning it in an unusual condition.

When planning for the future we often ask, ''What will the economy be doing this time next year?'' Or, ''What will be different ten years from now?''But forecasting is hard. The important events that will shape the future are inherently unpredictable. Instead, we should be asking a different question:What will be the same ten years from now?What will be the same one hundred years from now?Knowledge of the things that never change is more useful, and more important, than an uncertain prediction of an unknowable future. In Same As Ever, bestselling author Morgan Housel shares 24 short stories about the ways that life, behaviour, and business will always be the same. Armed with this knowledge of the unchanging, you will have a powerful new ability to think about risk, opportunity, and how to navigate the uncertainty of the future. As you see familiar themes repeat again and again in the years ahead, you'll find yourself nodding and saying, ''Yep, same as ever.''

Entre las mujeres artistas que han trascendido en la historia del arte, ninguna tuvo un ascenso tan meteórico como la pintora mexicana Frida Kahlo (1907-1954). Varias generaciones han admirado su rostro inconfundible, representado en más de cincuenta autorretratos extraordinarios, estos, junto con cientos de fotografías tomadas por maestros de la talla de Manuel y Lola Álvarez Bravo, Nickolas Muray y Martin Munkácsi, hicieron de Frida Kahlo una imagen icónica del arte del siglo XX.Tras sufrir un accidente en su primera juventud, Frida decidió convertirse en pintora. Su matrimonio en 1929 con Diego Rivera la colocó a la vanguardia de la escena artística del renacimiento cultural de México y también de Estados Unidos. El poeta André Breton elogió su trabajo, la incorporó a las filas del surrealismo internacional y expuso su obra en París en 1939, donde Picasso, Kandinsky y Duchamp pudieron admirarla.Este volumen permite a los lectores contemplar las pinturas de Frida Kahlo como nunca antes, acompañadas de fotografías famosas. Presenta obras pertenecientes a colecciones privadas de difícil acceso y reproduce pinturas que se habían perdido o que no se exponen desde hace más de 80 años. El volumen aborda el estudio más extenso de las pinturas de Frida Kahlo publicado hasta la fecha.El lector encontrará en este libro un relato fascinante de la carrera artística de Frida Kahlo. Accedemos a los afectos y pasiones íntimas de Frida a través de una selección de dibujos, páginas de su diario personal y una extensa biografía ilustrada con fotos de Frida, Diego y la Casa Azul, el hogar y centro del universo de la pintora.
