Touring the traditional craft workshops and historic palazzi that help to preserve Florence's exceptional art and architecture Picturesque medieval streets, breathtaking cathedrals and legendary art: there is much to love about the city of Florence, as its droves of tourists will tell you. Yet the city is not completely overrun by visitors, and Florence's locals are eyewitnesses to today's world while also heirs to a centuries-old history of tradition, creativity and independence.Livia Frescobaldi invites readers to discover the city that lies beyond the tourist realms, in the form of the age-old craft workshops and their ability to preserve all that makes Florence one of the world's most admired cities. Together with photographers Alessandro Moggi and Eugenia Maffei, Frescobaldi charts an itinerary through which to discover the arts and crafts. We visit the botteghe, or storefronts, housing these time-honored practices: framers, stonemasons working in marble or brilliant pietra dura, printmakers and ironworkers. Meanwhile, Frescobaldi also stops to show us some of the most historic palazzi still inhabited and cared for, such as the 13th-century villa home to fashion's Pucci family, or a former monastery-turned-mansion once belonging to Henry Brewster, an American expatriate in Florence. With essays rich in anecdote and admiration, Frescobaldi offers an intimate and original view of what it means to live in Florence today.Livia Frescobaldi grew up in Florence's Oltrarno district. As an appraiser, she has produced valuations for private estates and cultural sites across Italy. She also established the Associazione Amici di Doccia--which she heads--for research into and preservation and promotion of the Ginori porcelain manufactory.

A dazzling, interactive light display in a Renaissance courtyard connects the history of art with the age of technologyThe Dutch duo Lonneke Gordijn (born 1980) and Ralph Nauta (born 1978), working together as DRIFT, have gained an international reputation at the head of a multidisciplinary team of 64 artists and designers who create works able to transform and choreograph space. After interventions at Burning Man in the Nevada desert, NASA and the Victoria & Albert Museum, the duo proposes a performance in the courtyard of Palazzo Strozzi that is a breathtaking blend of art and technology. Fusing installation, sculpture and music, Shy Society turns the Renaissance courtyard into an enveloping stage, setting up a dialogue between nature and technology, knowledge and intuition, and science and poetry. The work is an invitation to look again at the historical context of the building as a new and evocative venue and setting, where each visitor becomes the protagonist of a multisensory experience that prompts a reconsideration of the space that surrounds us.

Set in various Uzbek landscapes spanning time and place, Ismailova's films weave a storied tapestry of ancestral folklore, traditional craft and colonial resistanceUzbek artist Saodat Ismailova (born 1981) is part of the first generation of Central Asian filmmakers following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Her films emphasize long shots that evoke the aesthetics of slow cinema, often combined with archival footage and installed within textile sculptural elements drawn from vernacular traditions, as in the exhibition at Pirelli HangarBicocca in Milan, which this volume refers to. Exploring the collective memories of her home region, Ismailova interweaves myths with personal dreams to address social issues such as women's emancipation, identity and the colonial past.

The most iconic trends and hottest topics in contemporary fashion, illustrated with designs from Gucci, Dior, Valentino and moreWhat makes an article of clothing iconic? While trends come and go, certain designs, red-carpet looks or everyday staples remain memorable for their technique, cultural significance or iconoclasm. Memorabile: Ipermoda zooms in on style from 2015 to 2025, examining the most prevalent trends and topics, including personal stylists and the question of authorship; sustainable design and the rise of "fast fashion"; and inclusive sizing. The catalog accompanying the exhibition is an atlas in which these theoretical questions are more deeply examined. It defines new words and concepts that have shaped sociopolitical outlooks on one of the world's largest industries. Dozens of designers are represented, including Prada, Balenciaga, Giorgio Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Dior, Valentino, Viktor & Rolf, Bottega Veneta and Thom Browne, together with up-and-coming designers such as Marco Rambaldi and Sunnei.

A visual voyage through the enigmatic ocean, where science meets art and where myth meets realityWe know more about the surface of Mars than we do about our planet's oceans. And yet the ocean remains an alluring prospect to humanity: as an artistic icon, an object of scientific inquiry or even a financial resource. Encompassing art, film, literature, archeology and natural history, Ocean is a journey of discovery above and below the surface. Offering a cross section of art and cultural history, the exhibition and catalog are arranged into three themes: the ocean between art and science; the mythological ocean; and the Anthropocene ocean. From the woodblock prints of Utagawa Kuniyoshi to Jean Painlevé's photographs of aquatic life and Susan Hiller's mapping of sea coasts, Ocean offers a mosaic view of this infinite yet imperiled source of life.Artists include: John Akomfrah, Anna Atkins, Jeanette Ehlers, Caspar David Friedrich, Susan Hiller, Pierre Huyghe, Utagawa Kuniyoshi, Jean Painlevé, Howardena Pindell, August Strindberg, Wolfgang Tillmans, Francesca Woodman.

"Warum tragen Architekten eigentlich Schwarz?", wurde Cordula Rau während eines Architektenwettbewerbs von einem Manager der Autoindustrie gefragt. Obwohl sie selbst Architektin ist und auch Schwarz trägt, wusste sie spontan keine Antwort. Sie beschloss, andere Architekten, aber auch Künstler und Designer zu fragen. Seit 2001 sammelt sie fortlaufend deren handschriftliche Antworten in einem Notizbuch. 2008 erschien diese Sammlung von Autographen in einem kleinen - natürlich schwarz gebundenen - Werk. Anlässlich der Neuausgabe wurde diese legendäre Sammlung um neue bemerkenswerte, amüsante, pragmatische und spitzfindige Begründungen erweitert: "Lesen Sie - und bitte fragen Sie mich nicht, warum Architekten Schwarz tragen!" (Cordula Rau) Erweiterte Neuausgabe des Kultbuches Sammlung handschriftlicher Erklärungen in einem A6-Notizbuch Ergänzung um 16 neue Statements

The definitive catalog of the largest private collection of Jean Prouvé's works, encompassing all aspects of his practical, utilitarian design ethos The esteemed collectors Laurence and Patrick Seguin first discovered the work of Jean Prouvé in the late 1980s, and were quick to embrace his entire aesthetic vision, from architectural design to furniture. "Every object to be created demands a basic, absolutely achievable 'constructional idea'," Prouvé once famously said, and the Seguins have modeled their collection around his stance, becoming major advocates and disseminators of his work around the world through a litany of large-scale exhibitions. Following a series of acclaimed showcases in France, Japan and Italy, this refined catalog presents the Seguins' complete collection of Prouvé's furniture designs, architectural elements and his signature demountable houses.From Furniture to Architecture builds upon the hit 2013 volume A Passion for Jean Prouvé. With a silkscreen cover printed on canvas, the book is divided into several chapters. The first shows Prouvé's works in the residential context of the Seguins' homes. The second chapter generously illustrates the exhibitions in Japan, France and Italy. Following this is an abundantly illustrated index of each piece in the collection, documented with archival and contemporary plans, drawings and images. The final chapter offers an illustrated biography and bibliography.Jean Prouvé was born in Paris in 1901. He opened his design workshop in Nancy in 1923 and began producing furniture the following year, to immediate success. Prouvé is best known for his innovative applications of new materials, with which he created extremely influential buildings and furniture--including several gas stations for Shell and Mobile. He died in Nancy in 1984. This book was published in conjunction with Litho Art New
