Paul Smith

    23. júl 1957

    Paul, pôvodom z Anglicka, sa v 70. rokoch presťahoval do Nemecka a stal sa konzultantom pre mnohé veľké nemecké firmy. Jeho jazykové skúsenosti ovplyvnili jeho písanie, kde sa stretávajú dva jazyky. Jeho dielo skúma kultúrne a jazykové prechody. Hlboko sa zaoberá tým, ako sa jazyky a kultúry prelínajú a vytvárajú nové formy výrazu.

      Keď Jurij Gagarin v roku 1961 ako prvý človek letel do vesmíru, prekonal nielen gravitáciu, ale aj Železnú oponu, ktorá na Zemi oddeľovala komunizmus od kapitalizmu. USA sa po tomto úspechu ocitli v panike, zatiaľ čo Sovietsky zväz triumfoval. Toto pútavé knižné dielo, založené na nových prameňoch, rozpráva o bláznivom „preteku do vesmíru“ superveľmocí: o krutých tréningoch kozmonautov, o psoch a šimpanzoch vo raketách, bombách v kokpite, amatérskej technike a strachu komunistov z toho, že sa vo vesmíre stretnú s Bohom. Stephen Walker dokázal preniesť čitateľov do neuveriteľnej cesty Jurija Gagarina, pričom zachytil fascinujúce a dramatické momenty tejto epochálnej udalosti. Kniha je fascinujúca, pútavá a veľmi dobre preštudovaná, pričom každá stránka ponúka nový pohľad na túto historickú kapitolu.

      Cezanne is often called the first modern painter. But how did he arrive at his way of seeing the world, and what was he aiming to express in his art? Critics, art historians and biographers have all devised theories that attempt to explain the style and content of Cezanne's paintings. Yet Cezanne himself was wary of others misinterpreting his work according to their own agendas.

      British photographer Martin Parr is known for creating fiction out of reality through his satirical images of the wealthy. His work, "Luxury," serves as a commentary on conspicuous consumption, showcasing candid moments from the international party circuit, including champagne lunches, horse races, and high-profile fairs in Moscow, Dubai, and Beijing. This series, consisting of 35 pieces created between 2003 and 2009, is part of the touring exhibition Parrworld. Parr adeptly documents the trends and social norms of the bourgeoisie—featuring diamond-encrusted jewelry, purebred puppies, racecars, and excess food and drink—while highlighting the cliche-laden tedium of wealth. His unique perspective likens him to a housefly, buzzing around the affluent, capturing their lives in a vivid, exaggerated manner. Critic Neal Brown describes this style as landing on the edges of plates and viewing the world as a grotesquely colorful feast. Exquisitely designed, this volume features a padded, gilt-foiled mock-leather cover, making it a fitting memento of a pre-bubble era. An introduction by renowned fashion designer Paul Smith, a fan of Parr, adds further insight into the work.

Dank des technologischen Fortschritts wissen wir heute besser denn je, wie Bäume sich entwickeln und leben, und verfügen über einen immer umfangreicheren Katalog ihrer zahlreichen Arten und Lebensräume. In einer Welt, die mit der Zerstörung des Amazonas-Regenwalds konfrontiert ist – um nur ein Beispiel zu nennen –, ist die Rettung der Vielfalt der Bäume entscheidend für die Bewältigung des Klimawandels. Dieses Buch ist eine echte Liebeserklärung an die Natur und ein beindruckendes Plädoyer für ihre Wertschätzung.

      Der Mode-Designer Paul Smith erzählt in seinem Erstlingswerk von seinen liebsten Mitarbeitern. Er berichtet, wie sich die Kuscheltiere Moose und Mr. Brown kennengelernt haben. Die beiden ziehen um die Welt, immer auf der Suche nach neuen Tieren, die sie mit Mustern und Materialien einkleiden können. Währenddessen suchen sie auch nach Moose verlorenem Zwillingsbruder und Mr. Brown lässt ihn final als Überraschungsgast einer Modenschau auftreten. Einleitend spricht der Designer eine Doppelseite lang über die folgende Geschichte und diese Überfrachtung macht sich auch im weiteren Buch etwas bemerkbar. Bei den überbordenden Details von Sam Usher (zuletzt "Sturm") kann man sich hingegen kaum sattsehen und die bildnerischen Stärken kommen voll zur Geltung. Während das Cover noch recht verhalten bleibt, mit den Protagonisten auf orangenem Grund, zeigen sich schnell der Witz und die Kunstfertigkeit des Illustrators.
