A book recounting the history and marvels of Reschio through an alphabet of stories and pictures of an ancient Italian estate beginning a new life.Reschio Estate sprawls over the hills of Umbria, north of Perugia and not far from Cortona, in the very heart of Italy, with its circular Castello at its highest point. Dating back one thousand years, it was revived when it was bought by Austro-Hungarian expatriate Count Antonio Bolza in the 1980s, and it has now been transformed into a group of villas and a spectacular hotel by his son Count Benedikt, who lives there with his wife Donna Nencia Corsini and their five children.Reschio Estate is every architect’s dream, and a total work of art. It spans nearly 1,330 hectares of land, and today half of the nearly fifty abandoned farmsteads have been transformed into beautiful villas. The 1940s tobacco warehouse has become the Tabaccaia, where the vibrant architectural and design studio brings Benedikt’s designs to life, with furniture and lighting made by local artisans. Ancient forests and meadows have been restored to their wild state, protecting the animals living in their natural habitat.

As a national cultural icon, she is a respected painter, collector, and textile researcher, and one of only two female artists to ever hold an art exhibition in Saudi Arabia in 1968, as well as the very first internationally exhibited Saudi artist.In 2000, Binzagr opened the Darat Safeya Binzagr, which houses the artist’s entire oeuvre as well as her private collection of traditional artifacts, textiles, and costumes, with meticulously documented information accumulated over the decades.Showcasing the colors, bold patterns, and intricately embroidered designs of KSA, the beauty and variety of these Arabian garments and jewelry are undeniable, although they are practically unknown to the Western world. Each headdress, garment, and necklace is an expression of personal and regional identity, incorporating Islamic, Indian, Indonesian, Malay, and Turkish influences that trace back to the legendary world of the ancient Silk Road. Preserving costumes that are no longer worn and celebrating those that remain at the heart of communities and families alike, this lavish book provides invaluable insights and over 300 images showcasing the history and stories of Saudi Arabia through the creative expressions of its oldest inhabitants.

An exuberant biography of the life of the iconic photographer and naturalist Peter Beard, whose life and work captured the cultural imagination  Peter Beard lived an astonishing life. The artist, wildlife photographer, and bon vivant enthralled and inspired both because of his work and his legendary lifestyle. A scion of American industry turned explorer of Africa and environmental advocate, Beard embodied the extremes of his time: grand adventurer and sexually voracious partier, friend of everyone from the Rolling Stones to Jackie Onassis to Andy Warhol to Karen Blixen. And Beard had a passion-probably more like an obsession-with the faults of the entire human experiment, with the ways in which our consumption of the world's resources have come to consume us all. Beard's outsize life and character-his death-defying documentation of both the endangered wildlife of Africa, and, closer to home, some of the world's most beautiful women for a range of fashion magazines-animate this lively but authoritative biography. The journalist Christopher Wallace, long fascinated by Beard's artistic legacy, adventurous spirit, and hard-partying persona, came to know him well later in Beard's life. Capturing the varied social and cultural scenes that Beard moved through with glamorous ease over five decades, Wallace also makes a powerful case for the lasting impact of his work. In Twentieth-Century Man, Wallace has rendered this towering figure in all of his contradictions and complexities-a deeply romantic and idiosyncratic personality, beloved by so many, whose sensibilities nonetheless remained firmly rooted in an era characterized by racist and colonialist attitudes. Stirring and visceral, Twentieth-Century Man is the definitive portrait of Peter Beard.

Il Panzerkampfwagen 38(t) non nasce tedesco. Il suo nome originale era LT vz. 38, ed era il miglior carro armato cecoslovacco realizzato tra le due guerre. Ebbe però fortuna e sostanziale utilizzo solo in un altro esercito, quello tedesco che ribattezzò il mezzo Pz.Kpfw.38(t). Nella Wehrmacht, questo carro armato divenne uno dei simboli della Blitzkrieg, combattendo nell'avanguardia delle unità corazzate tedesche. Fu quindi così che nella primavera del 1940, i carri armati costruiti a Praga distrussero i veicoli britannici e francesi che due anni prima non erano riusciti a venire in aiuto della Cecoslovacchia...

The Panzerkampfwagen 38(t) was not born German. Its original name was LT vz. 38, and was the best Czechoslovak tank made between the wars. However, it only had luck and substantial use in another army, the German army, which renamed the vehicle Pz.Kpfw.38(t). In the Wehrmacht, this tank became one of the symbols of the Blitzkrieg, fighting in the vanguard of the German armoured units. Thus it was that in the spring of 1940, the Prague-built tanks destroyed the British and French vehicles that had failed to come to the aid of Czechoslovakia two years earlier...

Guy Ben Ner macht aus wenig viel, indem er sich selbstund sein privates Umfeld radikal in seine künstlerischePraxis mit einbezieht. Die Wohnung seiner Familie in TelAviv dient dem Videokünstler genauso als Drehort wie dieFilialen einer Möbelkette. In diesen oft grotesken Settingsoffenbart sich der Einfluss von Wirtschaft und Politik aufdie intimsten menschlichen Beziehungen.Dabei ist es die Diskrepanz zwischen improvisierten Drehsituationenund der Stringenz der künstlerischen Konzepte,die sein Werk auszeichnen. Im Gespräch mit dem engenFreund und Künstlerkollegen Christian Jankowski gibt BenNer Einblick in den Entstehungsprozess seiner Werke. Dennwas im Video improvisiert und zufällig wirkt, basiert aufmonatelangen Recherchen und gründet in einem umfangreichenfilmhistorischen Wissen. Entlang von Begriffen wie»Ästhetik«, »Fantasie«, »Familie« oder »Zitat« entwickeltKuratorin Fanni Fetzer ein Alphabet des Widerstands in BenNers OEuvre. Die Publikation will die klare politische Haltungdes Künstlers und seine Strategie, spielerisch Widerstandzu leisten, vermitteln.

Platforms of Reality is a multi-layered analysis and interpretationof Heaven Baek's work, which explores how individualsand society interact both in reality and on stage.It ranges from the artist's early works to her most recentpractice, in which she questions the reality of video timelines,instant realities, and collective memories. Her wellscriptedperformances are spatial visualizations of theflood of real information that has somehow lost its purposeand meaning.The book is divided into four chapters, each exploring adifferent sense of reality and bringing together her artisticapproaches. The metaphor of the platform can beimagined as stages for her work, where trains depart fromdifferent tracks with different destinations, crossing pathsas they meet continuously. Baek attempts to permeatesocial collectives with her research and artistic methods-from drawing to video to installation.HEAVEN BAEK (*1984, Busan, South Korea) studied Media Arts in Melbourne, and received her Master's degree from the Glasgow School of Art. She uses staged reality to bring her videos and installations to fruition, magnifying mechanisms of society and social interaction. She lives and works in Seoul and Berlin.
