Kunst: teknikker og motiver

I Rammevævning lærer Vibe Munck dig, hvad det vil sige at væve på en rammevæv. Her får du en grundig introduktion til, hvad en rammevæv er, hvordan du sætter væven op og bruger den, og hvad du kan lave med lærredsvævning. Du får design, idéer og inspiration til projekter, som du kan bruge i dit hjem eller til dig selv. I bogen får du 20 moderne projekter fordelt på otte teknikker/metoder med et spektrum, der strækker fra flotte tørklæder og tasker til puder og plaider til dækkeservietter og hynder. Når du har færdiggjort et projekt i bogen eller draget inspiration af ét til at designe dine egne ting, kan du med det samme nyde følelsen af at kunne bruge din kreation i din hverdag. Bogens smukke billeder er taget af fotograf Allan Trolle.

Eat More Plants. A Chef's Journal is a collection of Daniel Humm's drawings and handwritten thoughts charting the re-imagination of his acclaimed three-Michelin-Star restaurant Eleven Madison Park as wholly plant-based in 2021. Shaped by the seasonality underlying Humm's cooking, the book is structured into a section each for spring, summer, fall and winter. His drawings are spontaneous and painterly, celebrating the bounty of predominantly local fruits and vegetables that inspires his creations-from familiar characters such as the carrot and cherry to the more exotic elderflower and matsutake mushroom. On the back of the drawings Humm has written notes on the ideas, beliefs and uncertainties behind his decision to re-invent (and risk) the 25-year story of Eleven Madison Park: "Our cooking should not conform to society, it should be a resolution / Most days we see endless possibility, some days fear clouds our vision / This isn't just an artistic experiment, it's our livelihood." The result is a revealing visual diary of a chef dedicated to pro-planet values as the basis of fine dining, and the liberating realization that following traditions had been his greatest limitation.

A revelatory exploration of Mark Rothko’s paintings on paper that transforms our understanding of a preeminent twentieth-century artist

Kaum eine Künstlerin stieg so kometenhaft in der Kunstgeschichte auf wie die mexikanische Malerin Frida Kahlo (1907-1954). Ihr unverwechselbares Antlitz hielt sie in über fünfzig außergewöhnlichen Selbstporträts fest, die seit Generationen bewundert werden. Diese Werke und zahlreiche Aufnahmen namhafter Fotokünstler wie Manuel und Lola Álvarez Bravo, Nickolas Muray und Martin Munkácsi machten Frida Kahlo zu einer Ikone der Kunst des 20. Jahrhunderts. Nach einem Unfall in ihrer frühen Jugend entschied sich Frida, Malerin zu werden. Ihre Heirat mit Diego Rivera im Jahr 1929 katapultierte sie an die Spitze der Kunstszene, nicht nur in Mexiko, sondern auch in den Vereinigten Staaten und in Europa. Kein geringerer als André Breton lobte ihr Werk und nahm die Malerin in den internationalen Kreis der Surrealisten auf . 1939 stellte er ihre Arbeiten in Paris aus, wo Picasso, Kandinsky und Duchamp sie bewunderten. Dieser Band bietet Gelegenheit, Frida Kahlos Gemälden nahe wie nie zuvor zu kommen - in brillanten Reproduktionen und im Zusammenspiel mit berühmten Fotografien. Das Buch präsentiert Werke aus Privatsammlungen, die für die breite Öffentlichkeit schwer zugänglich sind, und zeigt Arbeiten, die bislang als verschollen galten oder seit mehr als 80 Jahren nicht mehr ausgestellt waren . Zeichnungen, Tagebuchseiten sowie eine umfangreich illustrierte Biografie mit Fotos von Frida, Diego und der Casa Azul - ihrem Zuhause - erlauben einen intimen Einblick in Frida Kahlos Leben und ihr künstlerisches Universum .

Ob vertäfelte Klosterbibliothek, Büchersaal einer altehrwürdigen Universität, berühmte Privatbibliothek oder die private Hausbibliothek, die die eigene Biografie abbildet - Büchersammlungen und Bibliotheken sind Wohlfühlorte, Oasen der Stille und zugleich überbordend vor Ideen, Möglichkeiten, Historien, alternativen Lebenswelten und unentdeckten Dingen. Sie bieten konzentrierter Arbeit, moderner Geisteswissenschaft und analytischem Denken Raum und sind doch auch Orte der Kontemplation, des Träumens und des Erinnerns.Auf dieser Fotoexpedition besucht Massimo Listri einige der ältesten und schönsten Bibliotheken der Welt, um deren architektonische, historische und fantasievolle Wunder zu enthüllen. Durch große Holztüren, über Wendeltreppen und entlang exquisiter, mit Regalen ausgestatteter Korridore führt er uns durch herausragende private, öffentliche, Bildungs- und Klosterbibliotheken, die bis ins Jahr 766 zurückreichen. Diese Institutionen aus dem Mittelalter, dem Klassizismus, dem Barock, dem Rokoko und dem 19. Jahrhundert beherbergen einige der wertvollsten Aufzeichnungen menschlichen Denkens und Handelns, die in Manuskripten, Bänden, Papyrusrollen und Inkunabeln niedergeschrieben und gedruckt sind. In jeder dieser Bibliotheken fangen Listris aussagekräftige Bilder die einzigartige Atmosphäre der Bibliothek ebenso ein wie die wertvollsten Bestände und Gestaltungsdetails.Zu den vorgestellten Bibliotheken gehören die päpstlichen Sammlungen der Vatikanischen Apostolischen Bibliothek und die Trinity College Library in Dublin, in der das Book of Kells und das Book of Durrow aufbewahrt werden. Die sorgfältigen Beschreibungen, die jede vorgestellte Bibliothek begleiten, informieren nicht nur über die erstaunlichen Bestände der Bibliotheken - aus denen einige Highlights abgebildet sind -, sondern auch über ihre oft bewegte, turbulente oder kontroverse Vergangenheit. So zum Beispiel das Franziskanerkloster in Lima, Peru, mit seiner Fülle an archivierten Inquisitionsdokumenten.Nach unserem XXL-Bestseller erscheint jetzt diese kompaktere Ausgabe: ein Augenschmaus für Bücherfreunde, eine Ode an das Lesen und die Schriftkultur und eine kulturhistorische Wallfahrt an die Stätten, die Archiv und Arche unserer Geschichte sind.

Ovartaci (1894-1985) er en af dansk kunsthistories mest særegne skikkelser. Kunstneren med det borgerlige navn Louis Marcussen drog som udlært håndværksmaler til Argentina i 1923 og vendte stærkt psykisk ændret hjem efter seks år. Han blev tvangsindlagt kort tid efter, og under sin 56 år lange indlæggelse på blandt andet Psykiatrisk Hospital Risskov i Aarhus producerede han under kunstnernavnet Ovartaci et væld af vilde og visionære værker, der i dag har status af verdenskunst i særklasse. I bogen udfolder Anne Valbjørn Odgaard Ovartacis liv og sætter kunstneren ind i en større kunst-, kultur- og psykiatrihistorisk kontekst. Hun præsenterer samtidig et bredt udsnit af kunstnerens virke, hvor vigtige tematikker som køn, identitet og psykisk sygdom mødes. Anne Valbjørn Odgaard (f. 1983) er uddannet cand.mag. i litteraturhistorie og religionsvidenskab ved Aarhus Universitet. Hun har i mange år stået for en bred formidlingsindsats som forelæser, foredragsholder, redaktør og skribent ved forskellige medier, hvor kunst og kultur har været i centrum, og har desuden været tilknyttet Museum Ovartaci som formidler 2009-2011.

"Recalling a charcoal she made in 1916, Georgia O'Keeffe later wrote, 'I have made this drawing several times--never remembering that I had made it before--and not knowing where the idea came from.' These drawings, and the majority of O'Keeffe's works in charcoal, watercolor, pastel and graphite, belong to series in which she develops and transforms motifs that lie between observation and abstraction. In the formative years of 1915 to 1918, she made as many works on paper as she would in the next 40 years, producing sequences in watercolor of abstract lines, organic landscapes and nudes, along with charcoal drawings she would group according to the designation 'specials.' While her practice turned increasingly toward canvas in subsequent decades, important series on paper reappeared--including charcoal flowers of the 1930s, portraits of the 1940s, and aerial views of the 1950s"--Harvard Bookstore website (viewed on April 12, 2023)

The official report and findings of the bipartisan Congressional investigation into the January 6 attack on the Capitol, and Donald Trump's related coup conspiracies to overthrow the election, with an original foreword by attorney and Emmy-winning MSNBC anchor Ari Melber.Only the entire, authoritative House committee report can capture the full range of plots that have been exposed over time, from the violent attack on January 6 to related efforts revealed months after the insurrection. This definitive edition features: • The historic, official text of the House Committee report on the insurrection• New independent analysis of the coup conspiracy by MSNBC Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber• The definitive accounting of Donald Trump's efforts to end American democracy This is the only edition of the report featuring an additional, original analysis of the coup by a journalist and lawyer at the center of the action -- Melber has interviewed top members of this Committee, Jan. 6 rally planners and other cooperating witnesses, and Trump White House veterans ranging from Steve Bannon to Peter Navarro (now indicted for defying this probe). His report documents how Trump's plots comprise a continuous coup conspiracy -- not a ?riot? that exploded in a ?single day? -- and why that factual prism is vital for accountability, justice, and preventing the next coup attempt.In chilling detail, he shows how that process might have engineered a technical effort to ?override? the election on the floor of Congress?an essential map, and warning, for those who wish to protect democracy. If warnings are ignored and there is no accountability for the plotters at the top, a failed coup may become a training exercise.This report is not only a vital document in modern American history, it can also inform efforts to protect the future of American democracy. As a matter of justice, bipartisanship, and even patriotism, this report will become essential reading for any American determined to defend our democracy.

Skab din egen unikke keramik.At lave og male sin egen keramik er populært som aldrig før. Og nu kan allevære med på bølgen. I 'Pottemageri' får læseren en grundig introduktion til at komme i gang med at lave sin egen keramik helt fra bunden.Pottemageri er en håndbog for både den nytilkomne og den erfarnepottemager. Her blandes grundlæggende teknisk viden med et spændende kig ind i pottemageriets historie. Trin for trin gennemgår pottemager Stefan Andersson drejning, glasurfremstilling og brænding og deler undervejsgenerøst opskrifter, teknikker og tricks. Stefan beskriver også, hvordan man med beskedne midler kan bygge et enkelt værksted, lave sit eget værktøj og hvordan man bygger en brændeovn ved hjælp af ganske almindelige mursten. Bogen er baseret på Stefans egen forretning og produktion af potter og keramik i en brændefyret ovn. Rigt illustreret med fotos og illustrationer, der beskriver greb og teknikker. For hver del er der løsninger på almindelige problemer, som man kan støde på. Hvad gør man for eksempel, hvis man får luft ned i mudderet? Hvis drejeskiven slipper, når du centrerer leret? Eller hvisdine fade falder sammen, når du blander leret? Masser af tips både for nybegynderen og den erfarne pottemager.

Vævning er det nye store hit blandt kreative personer i Danmark. I 'Båndvævning- Kom godt i gang' får læseren en udførlig, men enkel introduktion til, hvordan man let kan komme i gang med at væve. Teknikkerne i bogen bliver suppleret med flotte billeder og letforståelige illustrationer. Når man tænker på vævning, forestiller man sig ofte store tungevævemaskiner, der fylder en halv stue. Men sådan behøver det ikke at være. I Kerstin Neumüllers nye bog om båndvævning åbner en ny væveverden sig. Hun viser, hvordan man væver med redskaber, der er nemme at lave selv, og som ofte ikke er større, end de passer i en bukselomme. Her er inspiration både til dem, der aldrig har vævet, men er ivrige efter at prøve, og til erfarne vævere, der gerne vil arbejde med fleksible værktøjer til at lave bånd, vægpynt, grydelapper og andre praktiske og fine ting.Kerstin fortæller også om sin rejse fra tekstil til træhåndværk og viser, hvordan man laver sit eget væveværktøj i lommestørrelse af træ eller sågar af en mælkekarton. Først vandt broderiet frem i Danmark. Nu vokser også interessen for vævning blandt danskerne. Kerstin Neumüllers bog er derfor en kærkommenintroduktion til en vævemetode, hvor man ikke behøver den store investering i en væv.

HÅNDVÆRK bookazine no. 7 inviterer dig med på besøg hos arkitekten, designvirksomheden, smeden, gørtleren, mureren, snedkeren og tækkemanden blandt andre og viser dig, hvordan man fremstiller badeværelsesfliser med et højt indhold af nedknuste gamle mursten. Du stifter bekendtskab med at male med æggeolie-tempera, og i tilgift får du løst og fast om tekstiler, glas, keramik og mad og drikke.Fra Editors letter af Rigetta Klint:"Måske kunne du tænke dig at gå op i skala i et kommende nummer af HÅNDVÆRK"?, spurgte en tilhører, som er arkitekt, for nogle måneder siden, da jeg forelæste om mit arbejde med HÅNDVÆRK bookazine. Hun fortsatte: "for du ved vel, at der fra 2023 skal føres klimaregnskab i byggebranchen. Først indføres krav til den maksimale CO2-udledning pr. kvadratmeter pr. år for nybyggeri over 1000 m2. Fra 2025 gør kravene sig gældende for alt nybyggeri". Det havde jeg hørt om, og jo, jeg ville gerne gå op i skala for at beskæftige mig med byggeri og bygningshåndværk, jeg var faktisk allerede godt i gang. Så godt i gang at jeg for længst havde forstået, at der er mange interesser på spil, når der bygges og restaureres, og jeg havde forstået, at det at beskæftige sig med arkitektur og bygningshåndværk handler om meget mere end at gå op i skala. Frem for alt er byggebranchen ‘big business’ og – i forhold til føromtalte og allestedsnærværende klimaregnskab – en af de store haner at skrue på. Hvor der er vilje, er der vej. Ikke kun i forhold til at begrænse CO2-belastningen. I mine interviews har vi talt om materialer i bred forstand, om æstetik, om arbejdsprocesser og arbejdslivserfaring og livserfaring og om uddannelse. Indhold: interview, reportage, inspirationFormat: bookazineSprog: dansk Sideantal: 160 Format: 215 x 280 mm (softback) Papir: 150g HÅNDVÆRK tror på, at nærmeste genvej til en bæredygtig og langtidsholdbar praksis går gennem kendskab til, og respekt for, materialer og håndværksfærdigheder. HÅNDVÆRK bookazine formidler en levende foranderlig håndværks-, kunsthåndværks- og designpraksis. HÅNDVÆRK handler om mad, mode og interiør, men mest af alt om mennesker.
