    Nu tilgængelig i en kompakt og prisvenlig ny udgave.Den første samlede fortælling om dansk lampedesign.Lampedesign fejres nu med rette som den hjørnesten i Danish Design, som den er. Gamle lamper købes til høje priser, ældre modeller relanceres som designikoner – og rigtig mange læsere savner en god introduktion til lampernes særlige designhistorie.Denne bog er den første udgivelse, der udelukkende fokuserer på dansk lampedesign. Med afsæt i Poul Henningsens ikoniske ’PH-lampe’ udfolder bogen 100 fortællinger om dansk lampedesign, der gennem tekst og billeder udbreder historierne bag de enkelte designs. Bogen introducerer læseren for de opfindelser, der skabte grundlaget for de første revolutionerende lyskilder: fra udviklingen af olie- og gaslamper frem til kulminationen sidst i 1800-tallet, de elektriske glødepærer, der kom med funktionalismens indtog i Skandinavien, for til sidst at præsentere sin læser for LED lys- og lampedesign i dag.Det enestående for dansk belysningskultur er, at belysning og hygge er tæt forbundet. Dansk lampedesign handler ikke kun om form. Dermed er formålet for den moderne danske lampe ikke blot at give lys, men fortsat skabte smukke designobjekter, at både pryde og give et hyggeligt lys i de danske hjem.

    - Architecture and World Views in Eighteenth-Century Denmark
    av Else Marie Bukdahl, Thomas Lyngby, Peter Thule Kristensen, m.fl.
    839,-

    Lauritz de Thurah (1706–1759) was one of Denmark’s most significant architects of the Baroque period. He created several important buildings, including the Hermitage Hunting Lodge, the Royal Palace in Roskilde, Gammel Holtegaard and the famous spire of the Church of Our Saviour in Copenhagen, and masterminded conversions and extensions of properties such as Ledreborg, Frederiksborg Castle, Børglum Kloster and the now demolished summer residence Hirschholm Palace – widely known as the Versailles of the North.The mainstay of this monograph is architect dr.phil. Peter Thule Kristensen’s presentation of Thurah’s rich and complex architecture. The other chapters, written by experts Else Marie Bukdahl, Martin Søberg, Thomas Lyngby, Natalie Patricia Körner, Sanne Maekelberg and Nina Ventzel Riis, describe Thurah’s roles as a leading architectural historian, topographer, grand tour traveller, civil servant, military man and trailblazer within the new social structure in Denmark under absolute rule.The book also sheds light on the Baroque period in a broader sense, delving into the era’s court culture, garden design and church architecture. Finally, the afterlife of Thurah’s works is addressed: how do his buildings function in our present day, having been adapted to the needs and users of a new era?

    - The SAS House and the Work of Arne Jacobsen
    av Michael Sheridan
    710,-

    In the center of Copenhagen, on the sixth floor of the Royal Hotel, Room 606 preserves the definitive masterwork of the Danish architect and designer Arne Jacobsen, in microcosm. Room 606 is the only surviving interior of the SAS House: the combined luxury hotel and satellite air terminal that Jacobsen designed for the Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS) and finished in 1960.The SAS House was the most complete commission of Jacobsen’s career, in which he exercised the full range of his talents as a designer of furniture, lamps, textiles, gardens, lettering and tableware. As the fragment that encapsulates the whole building, Room 606 serves as a lens for reconstructing Jacobsen’s vanished masterwork in words and images.Richly illustrated with nearly 500 photographs and drawings, this book guides the reader on a virtual tour through the Royal Hotel and SAS Air Terminal as they were in 1960 – and traces the origins of the SAS House to a series of earlier buildings and objects. As a result, the study of Jacobsen’s work that begins in Room 606 ultimately provides a general introduction to his entire career.New York-based architect Michael Sheridan is an internationally recognized scholar of modern Danish architecture and design. His books on these subjects include Landmarks: The Modern House in Denmark (2014) and Louisiana: Architecture and Landscape (2017).

    A meeting between Pissarro and a Danish Golden Age painter proved decisive for French Impressionism This book adds another dimension to our knowledge of the emergence of French Impressionism. In approximately 1850, the later 'father' of French Impressionism, Camille Pissarro (1830-1903) met the Danish painter Fritz Melbye (1826-69) in Pissarro's hometown on St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, at that time a Danish colony. This book argues that Melbye is a 'missing link' between the Danish Golden Age and French Impressionism - and the now almost unknown Melbye thus had a significant influence on the beginning of Impressionism. In 2017, the Ordrupgaard museum in Denmark held the exhibition Pissarro. A Meeting on St. Thomas on the occasion of the centenary of the sale of the Virgin Islands. This extended and revised book presents new research that the exhibition gave rise to.

    Twenty-one portraits of objects from Danish Modernism that remain relevant to this day. From 1940-80, a group of Danish architects and designers created a series of mass-produced objects that have the quality of archetypes: basic equipment for daily life reduced to their essential and timeless forms. Created at the intersection of craft tradition and industrial production, these items of furniture, lighting, cookware and tableware remain absolutely relevant and a number of them are still in production. A decade in the making, Archetypes offers the reader illuminating and richly illustrated profiles of twenty-one extraordinary designs that are emblematic of Danish material culture: modest, ethical and sustainable. Chapters on each archetype include biographical information on the designer, their creative processes, and detailed descriptions of the objects.

    Anish Kapoor (b. 1954) is one of the most influential artists of our time. Over the past four decades, the Indian-British artist has created a body of ground- breaking works out of materials such as wax, stone, pigment and polished stainless steel. Kapoor’s monumental works simultaneously envelop and over- whelm the observer. At the same time, the artist examines what we cannot see, through his iconic works that distort the exhibition spaces and the architecture in which they are embedded.This book was published in conjunction with the exhibition Anish Kapoor – Unseen at the ARKEN Museum of Contemporary Art. It offers a unique insight into how the artist’s use of materials, surfaces and colours has evolved and been refined from the early years of his career to the present. Four essays and an interview with Anish Kapoor delve into an array of poetic, philosophical and existential questions prompted by Kapoor’s seductive and sometimes disturbing works.

    Where did Tal R’s painting begin?Was it when a couple of artists from Cologne visited the Copenhagen art academy in 1998? When his encounters with nineties video art suggested new paths ahead for figurative painting? Or did it all begin long before the Academy era with a painting of pink Nazis?For more than twenty-five years, Tal R has been a prominent figure on the Danish art scene. Right from the outset, he dreamt of painting and of telling stories, even though ‘grand narratives’ had fallen out of favour – not least within the art of painting. You had to ‘enter painting sideways,’ as Tal R puts it. Tal R Painting is the first comprehensive presentation of his multifaceted painting practice. It follows his ever-changing art from the 1990s until today, when he is internationally recognised as a significant innovator in contemporary figurative painting.Pernille Albrethsen is an art critic for the Danish newspaper Weekendavisen and is the Copenhagen editor of the Scandinavian art journal Kunstkritikk. She holds an MA in modern culture from the University of Copenhagen and New York University.

    - An international affair
    av Christian Holmsted-Olesen
    444,-

    ‘The Danish Chair – an international affair’ er en del af serien Kompakte designklassikere, der udkommer på både dansk og engelsk.Bogen ‘The Danish Chair – an international affair’ sætter fokus på den danske designarv, som skulle blive det kulturelle fænomen, der satte Danmark på verdenskortet i midten af det 20. århundrede. Brandet Danish Design opstod i 1949, da amerikanske journalister begyndte at skrive om danske møbler fra Snedkerlaugets møbeludstilling i København. Hans J. Wegners ”Den runde stol” kaldte de ”The Chair” – ”Stolen”. Det blev ikke kun starten på et stort eksporteventyr, men også en udfordring for de danske designere, som blev verdenskendte for deres besættelse af at skabe den perfekte stol.Stolen er designernes prøvesten og designhistorikernes yndlingsobjekt. Den berører og spejler den krop, den skal bære med arme, ben, sæde og ryg. Og så er stolen et af vores mest kulturbærende design-objekter, og fortæller om den tid og det samfund, den er skabt i.Bogens særlige greb er, at den i ord, tegninger og billeder vil vise, at danske stole bygger på historiske møbeltyper, som forfines og rafineres i det uendelige. Budskabet og forklaringen på dansk møbelkunsts succes internationalt er, at dansk møbelkunst er baseret på fremmede kulturer og på ældre tiders bedste frembringelser.

    - Women, Gender and Architecture in Denmark
    av Jannie Rosenberg Bendsen, Henriette Steiner & Svava Riesto
    494,-

    This book tells a new story about twentieth-century architecture in Denmark. For the first time ever, readers get an overall picture of the key contribution made by women to the architecture of Danish welfare society in the period 1930–1980.The book’s five chapters present hitherto untold stories about how architecture comes into being through creative collaborations that cut across genders and professional disciplines. Women have contributed to all aspects of architecture, from kitchens and buildings to landscape architecture and urban planning, and their stories highlight the hidden diversity that has shaped Denmark’s buildings, cities and landscapes. The importance of this diversity must be understood and appreciated in the present if we are to create new ways of living and building in the future – a pressing need in light of the many crises we face as a society today.The book was written by Jannie Rosenberg Bendsen, Svava Riesto and Henriette Steiner as part of the research project Women in Danish Architecture at the University of Copenhagen.

    av Tsukamoto Yoshiharu
    519,-

    In his ongoing research into the effects of windows and how the different usages influence their design, the Japanese architect Yoshiharu Tsukamoto has travelled to Scandinavia and Finland.The result is this book, The Nordic Window – the first ever publication on the topic. Here, Tsukamoto and his students at the Tokyo Institute of Technology analyse a long list of canonical projects from the Nordic architectural tradition through beautiful photographs and elaborate drawings. His approach emphasises both the physical elements of the window, but also the more ephemeral aspects such as behaviour and atmosphere.This book is a study into how the design of windows is shaped by different cultures and social contexts. The fascination and tenderness shines through the text, while it presents a unique perspective on the architectural tradition that we are so familiar with. Through this exquisite example of Japanese craftsmanship, we are invited to see the Nordic architecture through the eyes of an acclaimed Japanese architect.Yoshiharu Tsukamoto is one of the founding member of the acclaimed Japanese architecture studio Atelier Bow-Wow and a lecturer at the Tokyo Institute of Technology. Together with his studio, he has previous published the books Pet Architecture Guide Book and Made in Tokyo.

    The gripping story of Christian Tetzen-Lund, who owned numerous rare masterpieces and sold them again. Among Danish art collections, one has almost legendary status: the rich collection of French art that Christian Tetzen-Lund built from 1916-1925. The collection consisted of 23 masterpieces by Matisse and a corresponding number of works by Picasso, but also paintings by Derain, Rousseau, Kandinsky, Braque, and many others. In total, Tetzen-Lund acquired about 600 works at a hectic pace and with unwavering judgment. This book presents the first reconstruction of Tetzen-Lund's collection, which, despite its significance and astonishing quality, has never been thoroughly studied before. The eccentric art collector offered the collection to the Danish state, which declined. Today, the works hang in the world's leading museums.

    - The Master, the Monster and the Myth
    av Flemming Friborg
    568,-

    Hailed as one of the most significant figures of early Modernism and at the same time condemned for his work and his moral – the discussion about Gauguin, his art and his character is still relevant today. Especially at a time where #MeToo is shedding new light on Gauguin’s relationship with adolescent girls and his share in colonialism in French Polynesia.‘Gauguin – The Master, the Monster and the Myth’ is the first in-depth biography about the artist written by a Danish writer. The publication shares new insights about Gauguin – about his complex character as an artist and a human being. It challenges the traditional ideas we have about his life and work. Flemming Friborg unfolds the fascinating story about Gauguin’s life and the millieu of Impressionism that he was a part of but also at the same time distinguishing himself from. The book shows how his method and moral was bound in a carefully maintained, personal brand and therefore the master and the monster must be seen as inseparable – and therefore, as a result of this, Gaugain’s legacy and status as a genius artist remains unclear.Flemming Fribog (b. 1965) is an Art Historian and Associate Professor at CBS (Management, Politics and Philosophy). From 2002-17 he was director of Ny Garlsberg Glyptotek. He has been awarded several Danish and international orders such as the N.L. Høyen medal from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and the honourable order L’ordre ministériel des Arts et des Lettres presented by the French Ministry of Culture.
