This Land
Hoy -5% en Libros

Opdyke, David

This Land presenta una sátira a fuego lento del sueño americano mientras se topa con la realidad del cambio climático.This Land es un mural épico creado por el artista neoyorquino David Opdyke a partir de postales estadounidenses antiguas que luego trató con desconcertantes intervenciones pintadas. Lo que al principio parece una vista panorámica a vista de pájaro de un idílico valle alpino se revela, tras un examen más detenido, como una serie de escenas y viñetas conectadas. A través de más de quinientas postales, cada una de las cuales representa una porción distinta de la cultura estadounidense idealizada (plazas de ciudades, carreteras de montaña, calles principales y sedes de condado), las alteraciones mordaces y emocionalmente discordantes de Opdyke se vuelven gradualmente evidentes.En esta remodelación profética, los bosques están en llamas, los tornados pasan de una tarjeta a la siguiente, un barco de vapor es tragado entero por una especie de nueva megafauna, las ranas caen como granizo bíblico del cielo. Las respuestas humanas forman una cacofonía de deseos y demandas, pánico y negación.Las imágenes se ven animadas a su vez por la vívida y astuta mezcla de perfil artístico e interpretación crítica de Lawrence Weschler.

Redouté. Roses
Hoy -5% en Libros

Aavv

La venerada tradición de la ilustración botánica se remonta al Renacimiento. Surgió del deseo de catalogar la naturaleza en su esplendor impredecible, y la tarea necesitó de la participación de artistas de talento.Con su extraordinaria habilidad para capturar los temas más intrincados de la naturaleza, Pierre-Joseph Redouté está considerado el mejor pintor y grabador de motivos botánicos. Trabajar con plantas vivas en lugar de los especímenes de herbario proporcionó a sus acuarelas una sutileza y frescura inusuales. También fue un innovador en los métodos de impresión, e introdujo en Francia la técnica de grabado del punteado en busca de una mayor exactitud en su arte. Redouté logró por casualidad el apoyo de algunos de los mecenas más influyentes de la época, incluidas María Antonieta y la emperatriz Josefina Bonaparte, lo que le aseguró una buena financiación y exposición de su trabajo.Su impresionante colección comprende más de 2.000 pinturas de plantas realizadas con estricta fidelidad a las formas naturales. En esta exquisita edición de Les Roses, Redouté dirige su atención a la flor más romántica, deseable y evocadora. Publicada originalmente en tres volúmenes entre 1817 y 1824, sigue siendo su obra más famosa y celebrada.

Yusuke, Kawase

Este catálogo, que acompaña a la exposición homónima celebrada en el Nagasaki Prefectural Art Museum y el National Museum of Western Art de Tokio, presenta el papel que desempeñaron los grabados en la creación y la difusión de la imagen de España desde principios del siglo XVII hasta mediados del XX. Partiendo de casi 250 obras conservadas en colecciones japonesas, un grupo de especialistas internacionales encabezados por Kawase Yusuke (comisario de la muestra con Inaba Yuta y editor del catálogo) abordan distintas cuestiones relacionadas con dos ejes fundamentales. Por un lado, estudian cómo las estampas permitieron dialogar con la tradición a través del Quijote o de Velázquez y cómo las obras de tema español realizadas sobre todo por artistas franceses y británicos generalizaron en el siglo XIX la imagen de un país exótico y orientalizante poblado de bandoleros, gitanos, majos y manolas que a duras penas se compadecía con la realidad. Tras detenerse en Goya y la influencia de sus series, analizan el Noucentisme catalán y la obra de figuras clave como Fortuny, trazando después la historia del grabado español durante la primera mitad del siglo XX y su recepción en Japón con artistas de la talla de Picasso, Casas, Miró, Dalí o Tàpies.

Paradise lost (clothbound classics)
Hoy -5% en Libros

Milton, John W.

John Milton's Paradise Lost is one of the greatest epic poems in the English language. It tells the story of the Fall of Man, a tale of immense drama and excitement, of rebellion and treachery, of innocence pitted against corruption, in which God and Satan fight a bitter battle for control of mankind's destiny. The struggle rages across three worlds - heaven, hell, and earth - as Satan and his band of rebel angels plot their revenge against God. At the center of the conflict are Adam and Eve, who are motivated by all too human temptations but whose ultimate downfall is unyielding love.Marked by Milton's characteristic erudition, Paradise Lost is a work epic both in scale and, notoriously, in ambition. For nearly 350 years, it has held generation upon generation of audiences in rapt attention, and its profound influence can be seen in almost every corner of Western culture.

Ondaatje, Michael

From the acclaimed Booker Prize-winning novelist, a gorgeous and most of all surprising poetry collection about memory, love, and the act of looking back. Following several of his internationally acclaimed, beloved novels, A Year of Last Things is Michael Ondaatje's long-awaited return to poetry. In pieces that are sometimes wittily funny, moving and always wise, we journey back through time by way of alchemical leaps, unearthing writings by revered masters, moments of shared tenderness, and abandoned landscapes we hold onto to rediscover the influence of every border crossed, Moving from a Sri Lankan boarding school to Moliere's chair during his last stage performance, to Bulgarian churches and their icons, to a California coast, and his beloved Canadian rivers, Michael Ondaatje casts a brilliant eye that merges his past and present, in the way memory and the distant shores of art and lost friends continue to influence all that surrounds him. These poems reflect the life of a writer, traveller and watcher of the world who has never conformed to western traditions - always describing himself as a 'mongrel', someone who contains multitudes, Looking back on a life of displacement and discovery, love and loss, this is an intercultural and brave book, Poetry - where language is made to work hardest - is what Ondaatje has returned to, and this is both an intimate personal record of a life lived and a great artist's guide to the vital, various world around us,

Poets of Madrid

Versión en inglés de POETAS DE MADRID, con Cervantes, Lope de Vega, Góngora, Quevedo, Valle-Inclán y Rubén DaríoThis is Madrid.Madrid. Homeric city, the cradle and grave of many of us that pour out the joyful days of youth among its streets and wineries, throughout its history it has accepted into its fold non-conforming poets from the four corners of the earth, because one is born a poet in his land, but one is made and perishes in Madrid.No matter where you are from, Madrid never leaves you indifferent, it always offers the rhapsodist who has moved to the capital in search of fortune, a lively space about which to write their verses. If our lives are the rivers as Manrique said, today the Manzanares river has been reborn and is full of life.Poets of Madrid is a generous title, as is Madrid. This anthology shows that the city drew them in from very distant places: Rubén Darío, for example, was born in Nicaragua, Valle-Inclán in Galicia, Góngora was Andalusian, Cervantes was born in Alcalá de Henares, thirty kilometres from Madrid, only Francisco de Quevedo and Lope de Vega were true Madrid natives.With this, we are trying to say that the presence of Rubén Darío in the anthology represents the percentage of the Hispanic American population who, proud of the city that embraces them, carries the same language in their voices, Góngora and Valle-Inclán, that of the surrounding areas, Cervantes, that of the city's close neighbours, and Lope and Quevedo, that of those born in Madrid. Because those us of from other parts of the globe were attracted to this city, which is no longer a Manchegan dump, for its courtesy and its lack of rejection, as a place known for its cosmopolitanism should be.

The climate crisis is here.

You can keep on hoping that catastrophe is preventable, and feel ever more frustrated or enraged by the world’s inaction. Or you can accept that disaster is coming, and begin to rethink what it means to have hope.’The honesty and realism of Jonathan Franzen’s writings on climate have been widely denounced and just as widely celebrated. Here, in his definitive statement on the subject, Franzen confronts the world’s failure to avert destabilising climate change and takes up the question: Now what?

Calypso

Sedaris, David

David Sedaris returns with his most deeply personal and darkly hilarious book.If you've ever laughed your way through David Sedaris's cheerfully misanthropic stories, you might think you know what you're getting with Calypso. You'd be wrong.When he buys a beach house on the Carolina coast, Sedaris envisions long, relaxing vacations spent playing board games and lounging in the sun with those he loves most. And life at the Sea Section, as he names the vacation home, is exactly as idyllic as he imagined, except for one tiny, vexing realization: it's impossible to take a vacation from yourself.With Calypso, Sedaris sets his formidable powers of observation toward middle age and mortality. Make no mistake: these stories are very, very funny - it's a book that can make you laugh 'til you snort, the way only family can. Sedaris's powers of observation have never been sharper, and his ability to shock readers into laughter unparalleled. But much of the comedy here is born out of that vertiginous moment when your own body betrays you and you realize that the story of your life is made up of more past than future.This is beach reading for people who detest beaches, required reading for those who loathe small talk and love a good tumor joke. Calypso is simultaneously Sedaris's darkest and warmest book yet - and it just might be his very best.

Esta edición de bolsillo, más amable con la billetera, es un reconocimiento a la creatividad única y cool de Corbijn, tal como Gahan reconoció de manera conmovedora en su discurso, una historia ilustrada de cómo Corbijn se convirtió en 1986 en el director creativo de facto de Depeche Mode y ayudó a cimentar su reputación como el grupo de culto más importante del mundo.Presenta más de 150 fotografías procedentes de los extensos archivos de Corbijn, algunas de ellas inéditas, incluidos retratos formales e informales en lugares como Madrid, Hamburgo, el desierto de California, Praga y Marrakech, una multitud de instantáneas íntimas y espontáneas e impresionantes imágenes de actuaciones en directo de todas sus giras desde 1988 hasta 2023.Creado en estrecha colaboración con los miembros del grupo, que comparten sus impresiones sobre el trabajo con Corbijn, Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn cuenta cómo la estética original de un hombre ha definido todas las fotografías de la banda, así como la mayoría de sus vídeos, el grafismo de sus álbumes y el diseño de sus escenarios para ayudar a dar forma a su popularidad inextinguible. Al reflexionar sobre el rol que desempeña en Depeche, Corbijn recuerda en la introducción del libro: ''Se me ocurrieron muchas ideas y quería que encajasen con ellos. Quería pensar por ellos. Ser grande para ellos''. Este libro es un homenaje a la profundidad y extensión de esa grandeza, una celebración de una de las colaboraciones más creativas y duraderas de la historia del rock.
