It is no coincidence that most of the artists at the vanguard of early 20th-century modernist art were poets as well as painters Paul Klee (1879-1940) was among them Known today almost exclusively as a visual artist, he was also a poet who experimented across a range of poetic forms In 1901, while still vacillating between a career as a painter and one озгьж as a poet, Klee predicted he would end up expressing himself through the word, "the highest form of art " This first scholarly monograph devoted to Klee's poetry proposes that he lived up to that prediction It considers poems he identified as such and visual images that are poetic in their compositional techniques, metaphorical imagery, and linear structures It provides selected examples of Klee's poetry along with English translations that capture the spirit and literal meaning of the German originals It places the poems and related images within the spectrum of contemporary poetic practice, revealing that Klee matched wits with Christian Morgenstern, rose to the provocations of Kurt Schwitters, and gave new form to the Surrealists' "exquisite corpses " Paul Klee, Poet/Painter is a case study in the reciprocity of poetry and painting in early modernist practice It introduces a little-known facet of Klee's creative activity and re-evaluates his contributions to a modernist aesthetic Kathryn Porter Aichele is associate professor in the Art Department at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.  2006 г Твердый переплет, 232 стр ISBN 1571133437.

As a student at Yale, Fred Sandback struggled with sculpture until George Sugarmann told him A¬if you are so sick of the parts, why not just make a line with a ball of string and be done with it A® For the rest of his career, Sandback used taut and resonant strings to sculpt space and light Ephemeral and site-specific, his Minimalist sculptures, familiar озгьч to visitors to Dia:Beacon among other museums, use colorful acrylic yarn strung between the ceiling and floor or into the corners of an exhibition space to interrupt and delineate space, refer to drawing, evoke volume, create magical boundaries that beg to be traversed, and give the viewer occasion to pause and consider His clusters of lines can seem to create walls or doors, or make the space reverberate like the body of an instrument whose strings have just been plucked The artist himself called them A¬pedestrian spacesA® by which he meant to describe both the viewer as a passerby and his art as an everyday thing Following his death, his remaining works feel less pedestrian, less everyday, more precious and more ephemeral, each irreplacable one ready, as many have, to revert to a tangle of threads.  2006 г Твердый переплет, 323 стр ISBN 377571720X.

Oracle Design looks thoroughly at the field of Oracle relational database design The design of both databases and applications is an often neglected area of Oracle, but one that has an enormous impact on the ultimate power and performance of a system If the initial design is poor, then the most powerful hardware, the most sophisticated software озгьщ tools, and the most highly tuned data and programs won't make your system run smoothly and efficiently Indeed, applications that have been designed poorly will never be able to perform well, regardless of the tuning and retrofitting performed later on This book examines all aspects of database and code design Part I examines the project life cycle and where design fits in that cycle; it shows asample case study, identifies the areas of Oracle7 that are of particular interest to designers, takes a look ahead at Oracle8, and provides an in-depth discussion of data modeling (e g , entities, relationships, attributes, entity models, function hierarchies) Part II describes design issues for the database itself -- denormalization, data types, keys, indexes, temporal data, import/export, backup, recovery, security, and more Part III explores design issues for specific architectures and environments -- client/server, distributed database, data warehouses, and parallel processing Part IV describes design issues for the code that accesses the database -- metrics and prototypes, locking, the toolset, design of screens, reports, batch programs, etc Part V contains summary appendixes.  ISBN 1565922689.

Since the early 1960s, William Christenberry has plumbed the regional identity of the American South through his work in Hale County, Alabama, where he was raised Although he is most often associated with--and recognized as a pioneer in--American color photography, he also works in an unorthodox mix of media that includes sculpture, drawing, озгэз painting and found-object assemblage This comprehensive survey of his work considers all those practices together, and in doing so gives readers access to the full scope and complexity of his vision In every medium, ChristenberryA­s theme is unified: the history, the story of place, is at the heart of his project His poetic documentation of vernacular architecture, signage and landscape captures moments of quiet beauty in a sometimes mythic terrain that, with its worn iconography and buildings turned ramshackle, evokes the form and power of the passage of time Since relocating to Washington, D C , in 1968, Christenberry has dutifully returned to photograph the same locations annually--the green barn, the palmist building, the Bar-B-Q Inn--fulfilling a personal ritual and documenting the physical changes wrought by the passing of a year More than half the photographs in this comprehensive survey are previously unpublished, including new and vintage images and a stunning selection of never-before-seen Kodachrome work An essay by Walter Hopps, the artistA­s lifelong friend and the founding director of the Menil Collection, who passed away in 2005, will draw attention as well.  2006 г Твердый переплет, 203 стр ISBN 1931788898.

Poetic and lush, Robert Rauschenberg's Combines present layers of complex and sometimes conflicting information This approach, first explored by Rauschenberg in the early 1950s, proved prescient and has become increasingly relevant in the current age of cascading information, when even the most ground-breaking artists are referencing озгые and sampling disparate elements to create new forms The Combines suggest the fragility of definitions, the fluidity of materials, and the complexity of forms that are characteristic of Rauschenberg's works The artist's handling of materials provides a precise physical evolutionary link between the painterly qualities of Abstract Expressionism and iconographical, subject-driven early Pop Art This book focuses on the works created roughly between 1954 and 1964, the most important decade in the artist's 50-year career, and constitutes the most complete survey of the Combines ever presented, as well as the most rigorous analysis of their political, social, autobiographical, and aesthetic significance An introductory essay by exhibition curator Paul Schimmel titled "Reading Rauschenberg" offers an iconographic analysis of the earlier Combines, based on in-depth conversations with the artist Other texts help to contextualize the Combines, such as Thomas Crow's essay that calls them the major artistic statement of their time, and the one body of art that could simultaneously hold its own from De Kooning to Pop art Edited and introduction by Paul Schimmel Essays by Thomas Crow, Branden Joseph, Charles F Stuckey and Jean-Paul Ameline Afterword by Pontus HA?lten Clothbound, 9 75 x 12 25 in /324 pgs / 172 color.  2006 г Твердый переплет, 316 стр ISBN 3865211453.

The Most Comprehensive Monograph on the Pioneering Swiss Graphic Designer Ever Published "A visual poet, a resourceful designer, and a pioneer in education--across all forms his creations spoke with the same unified harmony of line, color, and image He taught discipline, clarity, honesty, and integrity through example In a profession озгыт critically short on such values, his life and work continue to personify the ideal of a committed, humane, and conscientious designer " Kerry William Purcell, author Josef MA?A?ller-Brockmann (1914-96) was one of the most important and prolific voices of graphic design who created many of twentieth century's most significant and memorable posters He was a leading practitioner and theorist of the Swiss Style, which emphasized cleanliness, readability, and objectivity Beginning with the opening of his own studio in Zurich in 1936 and working until his death in 1996, the mark he left behind is immeasurable JOSEF MA?œLLER-BROCKMANN by Kerry William Purcell, is the most comprehensive monograph on the graphic designer ever published--including over four hundred images culled from the designer's personal archive Presenting the entire range of MA?A?ller-Brockmann's career, ranging from his most famous works to never before seen projects, this volume is essential for design students, professional designers, or anyone interested in the history of graphic design MA?A?ller-Brockmann's work ranged from social/civic projects such as posters for the Swiss Automobile Club and ZA?A?rich Police to commercial projects for IBM (for whom he was the design advisor in western Europe), Rosenthal, and Hermes Typewriters He was also an influential mentor to contemporary designers, writing a number of books on graphic design and its history His contributions to magazines such as "New Graphic Design," his design philosophies, and his ability to create design systems secure his status as a key figure in spreading the Swiss design ethic internationally MA?A?ller-Brockmann began his career as an illustrator, where his keen awareness for the quality of forms first emerged He is perhaps best-known as graphic design's foremost proponent of grid systems to assist in functional and objective design The grid system allowed him to organize his subject matter to create the most effective design Even his designs that appear free of structure were rigidly organized by MA?A?ller-Brockmann beneath the surface MA?A?ller-Brockmann was also an accomplished photographer, often integrating experimental photography, photomontages, and light paintings into his design work The grid system, industrial typefaces, and the use of photographic images rather than illustrations were MA?A?ller-Brockmann's trademark and, ultimately, the classic emblems of Swiss graphic design This new book offers readers the ability to approach MA?A?ller-Brockmann's work from several points of view, resulting in an extension of his influence on graphic design beyond his familiar poster work Illustrated by images of the final designs, sketches, and production drawings from his archive--and with long captions explaining in detail the design structure and the client's instructions--this extraordinary monograph traces MA?A?ller-Brockmann's life from his childhood through early training, rarely seen designs for the theater, famous posters for the Zurich art scene, corporate design work for clients, and, finally his efforts to educate young designers.  2006 г Твердый переплет, 292 стр ISBN 0714843490.

Gordon Matta-Clark, scion and rebel, died at 35 in 1978 and has since become a cult figure of late-twentieth-century art Born in New York and trained in architecture at Cornell, he went on to question the field's conventions in vivid projects that excised holes into existing buildings or assembled deeds to New York City alleys and curbs As the son озгых of the Chilean-born Surrealist painter Roberto Matta and Anne Clark, and godson of Marcel Duchamp, with whom he played a regular game of chess in the Village, Matta-Clark had grown up inside the art world, also working an as assistant to mavericks like Dennis Oppenheim and Robert Smithson His work and words, while sophisticated enough to make him an "artist's artist," and colossal and outgoing enough to draw public attention and affection, were always also grounded in social or political convictions He addressed not only space and real estate (in other words, housing), but the ultimate in necessity and nourishment,! food His "Pig Roast" under the Brooklyn Bridge offered passersby 500 pork sandwiches, and Food, the artist-staffed restaurant that he opened with dancer Caroline Goodden in SoHo, became a headquarters for that nascent neighborhood in the early 70s He consistently broke the boundaries between sculpture and architecture, photography and film, performance and installation, and above all the permanent and the transitory Once in a while he also broke the law This book, published in celebration of the gradual opening of Matta-Clark's archives at the Canadian Centre for Architecture in Montreal, collects previously unavailable writings, including notecards and notebooks, along with interviews and more than 100 illustrations.  2006 г Твердый переплет, 429 стр ISBN 8434311097.
