Milton Glaser's designs changed the way we see the world.' - Gloria Steinem.An overview of the work of illustrator and designer Milton Glaser during the 1960s and 70sFrom 1954, when he co-founded the legendary Push Pin Studios, to the late ’70s, Milton Glaser was one of the most celebrated graphic designers of his day, whose work graced countless book and album covers, posters, magazine covers, and advertisements, both famous and little-known. Glaser largely defined the international visual style for illustration, advertising, and typeface design and interest in his legacy continues unabated, with modern creatives acknowledging his influence, for example, in 2014 Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner enlisted Glaser to design the ad campaign and branding for the show’s final season.His renowned work garnered solo exhibitions at the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Creator of the iconic ‘I love NY’ logo (featuring a heart symbol in place of the word ‘love’) and cofounder of New York magazine, Glaser received numerous accolades and lifetime achievement awards. Across thousands of works across all print media, he invented a graphic language of bright, flat color, drawing and collage, imbued with wit. This collection of work from Glaser’s Pop period features hundreds of examples of his design that have not been seen since their original publication, demonstrating the graphic revolution that transformed design and popular culture.

Su colaboración en la saga de Spiderman no podía durar para siempre, pero los cinco años de la extraordinaria asociación de Stan Lee y Steve Ditko dieron de sí lo suficiente como para que su personaje evolucionara hasta convertirse en un ídolo atemporal con un ejército de seguidores que sobrevive al paso de las generaciones. El nuevo volumen de TASCHEN de las historias de Amazing Spider-Man recopila la segunda mitad de la obra maestra de sus creadores, con los nuevos archivillanos el Escorpión, el Hombre Ígneo y Crime-Master, el regreso de Kraven el Cazador y Duende Verde, y la saga ''Master Planner'' de tres partes que reavivó un enfrentamiento con un icónico villano y dejó a su paso lo que muchos críticos de cómics consideran la mejor historia de superhéroes de todos los tiempos.Más allá de la acción a la que Spiderman tuvo que enfrentarse (toda ella coreografiada con estilo y aplomo por el magistral Ditko), estaba el proceso de maduración de Peter Parker durante una década de agitación y cambios sociales. Con la mezcla de melodrama y sensibilidad social preparada por Stan Lee, Peter pasó de la escuela secundaria a la universidad y comenzó a lidiar con un sinfín de conflictos propios de la edad adulta que reflejaban las experiencias vitales de los lectores. Peter Parker ya no era un adolescente escuálido, y Lee y Ditko ampliaron su red de amigos y enemigos e hicieron debutar a Gwen Stacy, Harry Osborn y, en una serie de hilarantes cameos, a Mary Jane Watson, todos ellos personajes que se convirtieron en uno de los elencos más profundos y consistentes de todos los cómics. También se presenta al padre de Harry, Norman Osborn, el iracundo empresario que más tarde se reveló como el enemigo más temible de Spiderman. Mientras tanto, el accidentado romance entre Peter y Betty Brant llega a su fin con ambos personajes cambiados para siempre.Recopilados en un volumen de tamaño XXL con las mismas dimensiones que las páginas en blanco en las que se dibujaron los cómics originales, todos los números reproducen la colección de Bob Bretall, poseedor del récord Guinness de la colección de cómics más grande. La prestigiosa colección de Bretall se ha fotografiado con los excelentes métodos de reproducción de TASCHEN para imitar el aspecto original de estos cómics cuando se publicaron por primera vez en 1965 y 1966. Las imágenes se han remasterizado digitalmente con modernas técnicas de retoque para corregir los problemas propios de la impresión económica e imperfecta de la época. Para esta serie se ha desarrollado en exclusiva un tipo de papel que simula el tacto propio del papel de periódico y la reproducción de los colores de los cómics originales. The Marvel Comics Library se ha hecho acreedora de los elogios de los coleccionistas de cómics por combinar la experiencia de lectura de la vieja escuela con un lujoso formato de gran tamaño, y ha sido galardonada con el codiciado premio Eisner al mejor diseño.Como complemento a los cómics, se incluye un ensayo incisivo y a menudo muy divertido del presentador de radio y televisión británico Jonathan Ross. Acompaña al ensayo una galería de ilustraciones originales, fotografías y material documental.© 2023 MARVEL

Whether on a well-curated shelf or in your back pocket, these timeless works of philosophical, political, and psychological thought are absolute must-haves for book collectors as well as design enthusiasts.As a diplomat in turbulent fifteenth-century Florence, Niccolò Machiavelli knew how quickly political fortunes could rise and fall.

Una retrospectiva única de Mick Rock, el fotógrafo oficial y socio creativo de David Bowie, recopilada en 2015 con el consentimiento del propio Bowie.En 1972, David Bowie publicó su revolucionario álbum The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Con él nació también el alter ego Stardust de Bowie: un ser de vestimenta reluciente, rímel en los ojos y sexualmente ambiguo que rompió las fronteras entre lo masculino y lo femenino, lo heterosexual y lo homosexual, la realidad y la ficción en un cambiante y brillante fenómeno de autoexpresión de los años setenta. Ziggy, el álbum, y Ziggy, el espectáculo, convirtieron al londinense de voz suave en una de las mayores estrellas del mundo.Uno de los pasajeros clave en ese viaje glam rumbo a la estratosfera fue Mick Rock, también de Londres. Rock estableció vínculos artísticos y personales muy estrechos con Bowie, pasó a formar parte del círculo íntimo del cantante y trabajó, en 1972 y 1973, como su fotógrafo oficial.Esta colección de fotografías reúne instantáneas espectaculares sobre el escenario y retratos íntimos en el backstage. El libro celebra la experimentación y reinvención audaz de Bowie. Una visión sin precedentes de las múltiples facetas del artista. Jugando con lo distante y lo accesible, lo divertido y lo serio, este apasionado tributo se regocija en la experimentación y la imprevisibilidad, y celebra la eterna inspiración de un artista audaz y excepcional que siempre será recordado.

A guidance for documenting, studying an publishing architectural remains in archaeology.Architects have been instrumental in developing the methods and standards for documenting, studying and publishing architectural remains in archaeology. At many sites, their reconstruction drawings shape our understanding of destroyed monuments. Architects often play a leading role in the restoration and reconstruction of buildings. In many countries they also direct archaeological field projects. In this introduction to archaeological building research, the questions, methods, techniques and possible results of the work of architects in archaeology are presented, based on the work of the internationally active German Archaeological Institute. Emphasis is placed on the importance of drawings in documenting observations made in the field, as well as on methods of reconstruction and architectural analysis of building remains. The aim is to introduce architects and students of architecture to a special field of work, and to give experts from other disciplines an insight into the research questions and methodology of architects and their potential contribution to archaeology and cultural history.

He has lived in Luanda all his life and has never even visited the far-away homeland - although he has heard many stories. But now his family are finally accepting that they too must return, and Rui is filled with a mixture of excitement and dread at the prospect. But just as they are leaving for the airport, his father is taken away by the rebels, and the family must leave without him.

In the late 1910s, in a Europe ravaged by World War I, Danish illustrator Kay Nielsen put the finishing touches on his illustrations of A Thousand and One Nights. The results are considered masterpieces of early 20th-century illustration: bursting with sumptuous colors of deep blues, reds, and gold leaf, and evoking all the magic of this legendary collection of Indo-Persian and Arabic folktales, compiled between the 8th and 13th centuries.However, publishers retreated from Nielsen's project in the financially strapped postwar climate, and the publication never happened. A rising star, Nielsen moved on to other work. This world heritage classic's spectacular pen, ink, and watercolor images remained under lock and key for 40 years. Published just once in the 1970s, the illustrations were rescued from oblivion after Nielsen's death in 1957 and are now held by the UCLA Grunwald Center for the Graphic Arts at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, the Art Institute of Chicago, and in two private collections.This publication is a unique compilation of fine art prints and stunning illustrations reproduced directly from Nielsen's original watercolors-the only complete set of his extraordinary drawings to have survived. The book features descriptions of all of the images and three generously illustrated essays on the making of this series, the origin of Nielsen's unique imagery, and a history of the tales. In addition, it shows many unpublished or rarely seen artworks by Nielsen and intricate black-and-white drawings Nielsen created for the original publication.
