A la edad de seis años, Salvador Dalí quería ser cocinero, y a los siete, Napoleón. Su ambición y megalomanía crecieron constantemente, y finalmente solo deseaba ser Salvador Dalí, uno de los artistas y excéntricos más importantes del siglo XX. Este extenso volumen es el estudio más detallado sobre las pinturas de Dalí que se ha publicado. Robert Descharnes y Gilles Néret, tras años de investigación, han rastreado casi todas las obras del extremadamente productivo artista, muchas de las cuales no estaban disponibles anteriormente. Casi la mitad de las ilustraciones eran poco conocidas. El libro va más allá de un catálogo de obras y examina la obra de Dalí en el contexto de documentos contemporáneos, sus propios escritos, dibujos y áreas relevantes como el ballet, el cine y la moda. La obra se divide en dos partes: la primera destaca los inicios de Dalí como artista desconocido, utilizando diversos estilos como el impresionismo y el cubismo. La segunda parte muestra su impulso a cuestionar las cosas y su legado en obras significativas como "El pescador de atunes" y "El torero alucinado". El volumen también incluye homenajes no publicados a Velázquez y Miguel Ángel, que ilustran la relación creativa de Dalí con los grandes maestros.

El pintor germano-francés Balthasar Klossowski de Rola (1908-2001), conocido como Balthus, impactó al mundo del arte parisino con sus retratos neo-clásicos, soñadores y sensuales de ninfas, en una época en la que el surrealismo y la abstracción eran territorios prohibidos. Como provocador, fue condenado, pero como artista, fue considerado un prodigio. Sus imágenes erótico-poéticas se encuentran entre las mejores obras figurativas de la modernidad.

TASCHEN's 25th anniversary Special edition! Two large-format hardcover volumes in a slipcase. Picasso called Dali "an outboard motor that's always running." Dali thought himself a genius with a right to indulge in whatever lunacy popped into his head. Painter, sculptor, writer, and filmmaker, Salvador Dali (1904-1989) was one of the century's greatest exhibitionists and eccentrics - and was rewarded with fierce controversy wherever he went. He was one of the first to apply the insights of Sigmund Freud and psychoanalysis to the art of painting, approaching the subconscious with extraordinary sensitivity and imagination. This lively monograph presents the infamous Surrealist in full color and in his own words. His provocative imagery is all here, from the soft watches to the notorious burning giraffe. A friend of the artist for over thirty years, privy to the reality behind Dali's public image, author Robert Descharnes is uniquely qualified to analyze Dali - both the man and the myth.

Auguste Renoir. The Painter of Happiness
- 440 páginas
- 16 horas de lectura
Renoir's timelessly charming paintings are the embodiment of happiness, love, & beauty; it is no doubt because of this that he is the most popular of the impressionists. TASCHEN's Renoir, the most complete retrospective book of this painter's work, examines in detail the history & motivation behind the legend. Renoir was incredibly prolific, painting over 5000 works during his lifetime, though many of these were studies. For this monograph, we have chosen 600 of his masterpleces that best demonstrate his immense talent & historical importance. Gilles Neret's detailed, insightful text traces the evolution of Renoir (1841-1919) from young porcelain decorator to one of the most famous painters of his generation, including his abandonment of landscapes in favor of portraiture & his final attraction, after years of success, to painting what he loved most, the Washers descending from the Olympia & his model & servant, Gabrielle, painted as a goddess. With a complete chronology, bibliography, & index of works, as well as photos & sketches illustrating Renoir's life & work, TASCHEN's Renoir is the essential reference book for this painter of happiness & poet of love. Oh, & did we mention the gorgeous, large-format color reproductions?
Michelangelo

During the Renaissance, the great artists, from Leonardo da Vinci and Botticelli to Michelangelo and Rapheal, transformed the history of art, achieving an even closer imitation of nature whilst altering it to their taste.From the art, ambiguous beings were born, half man, half woman; female breasts were planted on male busts and a young man's gaze peeped out beneath the eyelids of a Madonna. From his earliest youth, Michelangelo never ceased to suffer, and thereby to create. He attempted to reconcile the apparently conflicting forces that inhibited him: earthly passions and fear of God. Hence the edifice devoted to beauty, celestial and infernal alike, that Michelangelo raised to the glory of God. It has no equivalent nor descendants. His predecessors aspired to Heaven through faith alone; Miichelangelo sought to rise through the contemplative exaltation of beauty.

Édouard Manet, 1832-1883 : the first of the moderns
- 96 páginas

Der französische Maler Édouard Manet (1832–1883), der zu Lebzeiten sowohl für seinen Stil als auch für seine Motive Hohn und Spott ertragen musste, gilt heute als entscheidender Erneuerer der Malerei und Wegbereiter des Impressionismus. Manet löste sich von der akademischen Maltradition seiner Zeit, auch wenn er immer wieder Bezug auf alte Meister wie Goya, Velázquez, Rubens oder Frans Hals nahm, und führte neue Motive und unkonventionelle Darstellungsweisen in die Malerei ein. Er zeigte Alltagsszenen aus Pariser Bars und Cabarets und wagte es, Nacktheit ohne jede mythische oder allegorische Verbrämung darzustellen. Der Pariser Salon empörte sich über seine Mahlzeit im Grünen mit einer nackten Frau neben bekleideten Männern, während der direkte Blick und die unverfrorene Pose der mutmaßlichen Kokotte Olympia , einer sehr modernen Neuinterpretation von Tizians Venus von Urbino , einen wunderbaren Skandal auslöste. Der reich bebilderte Band zeigt, wie Manet über die Auseinandersetzung mit den traditionellen Malkonventionen zu einer Darstellungsweise findet, in der ahnungsvoll schon die Moderne aufscheint.

A perfect synthesis of colour and line Matisse at eighty, master of painting and sculpture, used colour as a sculptor uses stone. His unique venture took the art world by storm. The improvisations in colour and rhythm, created with gouached paper and scissors, marked the culmination of his artistic ambition - a perfect synthesis of colour and line. About the Series: Each book in TASCHEN's Basic Art series features: a detailed chronological summary of the life and oeuvre of the artist, covering his or her cultural and historical importance a concise biography approximately 100 illustrations with explanatory captions
Often misunderstood, Pierre-Auguste Renoir remains one of history's most-loved painters--undoubtedly because his work exudes such warmth, tenderness, and good cheer. Gathering brilliant reproductions and sketches, as well as photos and a complete chronology illustrating his life and work, this is the essential work of reference on Renoir.

The inventor of modernity Violently criticized during his lifetime for his supposedly provocative paintings, French painter Edouard Manet (1832-1883) is now considered a master of inestimable importance in the history of painting. His 1863 painting "Déjeuner sur l’herbe" depicting two clothed men picnicing with a nude woman—now considered one of the most memorable images of the 19th century—stirred up controversy for what many considered its vulgar audacity. It was famously rejected by the Paris Salon and exhibited in the Salon des Refusés. Manet’s bold style helped pave the way from Realism to Impressionism, and in doing so ushered in the age of modern art. About the Each book in TASCHEN’s Basic Art series
As the Goddess of the Automobile Age, Tamara de Lempicka (1898-1980) stood at the centre of the sophisticated Paris art world of the Twenties and Thirties. Her love for beautiful women, elegant automobiles and the modern metropolis provided not only motifs for her pictures, but also influenced her artistic style. Simultaneously with her career as artist, Tamara de Lempicka pioneered a new image of life on the screen, evident in the new, self-confident woman and the changing aspects of femininity and masculinity. The same sense of style was reflected in a futuristic cult of speed, domestic design forms promulgated by the Bauhaus, and the dandyism of a George Brummell. Tamara de Lempicka's best-known painting, Self-Portrait, or Tamara in a Green Bugatti, presents the artist as a female dandy brimming with cool elegance. Whether as an Art-Deco artist, a post-Cubist or a Neoclasissist, de Lempicka struck the taste of a cosmopolitan (and wealthy) public that found its own image reflected in her work.

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864-1901), scion of an ancient aristocratic family, was a crippled dwarf. His familys wealth gave him financial security, and he chose to become an artist. In Paris he was drawn to the world of the In the cafes, cabarets, dance halls and brothels he observed the theatre of life, viewing this world not from the moralizing standpoint of the 19th-century bourgeoisie, but with the eyes of one for whom all inhibitions had long since vanished. Lautrec had the gift of painting life as it is. No one else has captured the entertainment world of the belle poque in so unadulterated, so masterful and so timelessly true a manner as did Lautrec in his paintings, lithographs and posters. This monograph sets out to examine the close relations between Lautrec work and life. It thereby offers the reader a lively impression of Lautrec art, and at the same time provides an understanding of his private life and of the magnificent Paris of the belle poque.

Extravagance and sensuality Renowned among his contemporaries as one of the foremost painters of his era, Flemish baroque artist Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) practically revolutionized northern European art. A shrewd businessman, international ambassador, passionate scholar, devout Catholic, and loving family man, Rubens—fluent in six languages, no less—cared about nothing more than painting, and thus devoted his life to it. Combining typical Flemish realism with classical themes influenced by the Renaissance, Rubens caught the attention of all of Europe and helped put his native Antwerp on the map. His very profitable workshop of accomplished artists, one of whom was Van Dyck, completed over 2000 works under his supervision. About the Each book in TASCHEN’s Basic Art series

Malevich

After flirtations with Realism, Impressionism, and Symbolism, Kiev-born Kazimir Malevich (1878–1935) found his métier in dissolving literal, representational figures and landscapes into pure emotionally-charged abstraction. In 1915, he created what is widely lauded as the first and ultimate abstract Black Square, a black rectangle on a white background, hailed as the “zero point of painting,” a seminal moment for modern and abstract practice. In this book, we follow Malevich’s key innovations and ideas and place his groundbreaking achievements within the context of both the Russian and global avant-garde. Through rich illustrations of his work, we explore the artist’s theory of Suprematism, based on severe geometric abstraction and “the supremacy of pure feeling in creative art”; his leading role in the development of Constructivism; as well as his interests in philosophy, literature, Russian folk art, and the fourth dimension.

Since the beginning of civilization, women have worn underwear. Justified as protection, or a hygienic necessity, this ""second skin"" was devised to satisfy perverse erotic instincts. A ""trap laid by Venus"" to entertain and stimulate the fantasies of both the woman who wears them and the man who discovers them. Corsets, bras and panties are not utilitarian items -- they are elements in a mystic ritual linking man and woman. They act as an obsessive focus for fantasy, for the sex they conceal is powerless without the decorations and seductions which separate us from it. Pleasure would perish without censorship. Women have always known how to stimulate the latent fetishism of the men around them. Under her dress, a Greek girl of the classical period would wear a belt around her hips which was of no practical use except to draw attention to her feminity. Likewise, the women of Rome already wore garters round their thighs, though the stocking had not yet been invented. In our own century, vamps, starlets, pin-ups and models have filled our cinema screens, our advertising hoardings, our office calendars and our imaginations with the erotic engineering of the garter belt and the surreptitious rustle of nylon stockings.

This is a collection of the best 17th and 18th century images from Erotica Universalis, volumes I and II. From Rembrandt to Fragonard and lots of others in between (known, unknown, and anonymous), a plethora of delightfully naughty pictures!
At Delacroix's studio sale, held six months after his death in 1864, crowds and critics were astonished by the abundance and multi-disciplinary nature of his work, showcasing the vision of a man hailed by Baudelaire as the last great artist of the Renaissance and the first of the Modern era. Delacroix was acutely aware of his desired position in art history. Drawing inspiration from Rubens in lifestyle and creativity, he combined classical composition with universally appreciated symbolic and allegorical themes, resulting in works of unmatched integrity and sensuality. From his spectacular Salon reception in 1824 to the significant Scenes from the Chios Massacre—where the term Romantique was first applied to his style—and the provocative The Agony in the Garden, Delacroix's genius in graphic design, color innovation, and body portrayal was undeniable. His numerous sketchbooks reflect a commitment to truth in both his Goyaesque depictions of horror and sacrifice and his grand historical canvases. Excessive and monumental, this Victor Hugo of the art world has profoundly influenced movements such as Impressionism, Expressionism, and mid-century Abstract painting. Delacroix's noble spirit transcends the self-indulgence of the Romantics, resonating across ages.

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864-1901) festő és rajzoló, akit ma a leginspiráltabb emberábrázolók egyikeként tartanak számon. A fizikai fogyatékkal élő, régi francia nemesi családból származó művész a Montmartre világának lenyűgöző atmoszféráját kutatta. A párizsi negyed kávézói, kabaréai, táncparkettjei és bordélyai a "élet színházát" kínálták számára. Toulouse-Lautrec páratlan módon örökítette meg a Belle Époque idején a mulandó örömök hajszáját: mesterművei, litográfiái és plakátjai időtlen, kendőzetlen képet adnak azokról az évekről.

Die zeitlos charmanten Gemälde von Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841-1919) spiegeln die Ideale von Glück, Liebe und Schönheit wider, wie sie heute immer noch gültig sind. In dieser kompakten Version unserer großformatigen Ausgabe, der bisher umfangreichsten Buchretrospektive über Renoirs Werk, werden die persönliche Geschichte und die Bewegründe hinter der Legende deutlich. Nach frühen Landschaftsbildern im impressionistischen Stil entdeckte Renoir seine wahre Leidenschaft in der Porträtmalerei – woraufhin er den Impressionisten den Rücken kehrte. Obwohl oft missverstanden, bleibt er einer der beliebtesten Maler der Kunstgeschichte – zweifellos der Wärme, Zärtlichkeit und Hochstimmung wegen, die seine Werke ausstrahlen. In einem aufschlussreichen Text, der die Karriere des Künstlers und seine stilistische Entwicklung nachzeichnet, zeigt Gilles Néret, wie Renoir in seinen Alltagsgöttinnen mit ihren prallen Formen, runden Hüften und Brüsten die gemalte weibliche Form neu erfand. Seine letzten Gemälde, vor allem der Badenden-Serie, geprägt von der Rückkehr zum simplen Vergnügen am weiblichen Akt, bilden seine innovativste und stilistisch einflussreichste Phase, die später sogar Matisse und Picasso inspirierte. Mit vollständiger Chronologie, einer aktualisierten Bibliographie und brillanten Reproduktionen sowie Fotos und Skizzen ist dies das unverzichtbare Nachschlagewerk zum Œuvre dieses langlebigen Meisters.

„Warum sollte Kunst nicht schön sein? Es gibt genügend unerfreuliche Dinge auf der Welt.“—Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Renoirs Gemälde verkörpern Glück, Liebe und Schönheit. TASCHENs umfassende Retrospektive untersucht die Geschichte und Beweggründe hinter diesem legendären Maler. Zu Beginn seiner Karriere malte Renoir (1841-1919) impressionistische Landschaften, entdeckte jedoch seine wahre Begabung mit Porträts und wandte sich von den Impressionisten ab. Trotz Missverständnissen und Kritik bleibt er einer der beliebtesten Maler der Kunstgeschichte, was sicherlich an der Wärme und Hochstimmung seiner Werke liegt. Gilles Néret beschreibt in seinem aufschlussreichen Text die Karriere und stilistische Entwicklung Renoirs. Er hebt hervor, dass Renoir mit seinen Alltagsgöttinnen, die durch ihre runden Formen bestechen, die Darstellung der Frau in der Malerei neu erfand. Die letzten Werke, insbesondere die „Baigneuses“-Serie, zeigen Renoirs Rückkehr zur einfachen Freude und markieren eine stilistisch einflussreiche Phase, die später Künstler wie Matisse und Picasso inspirierte. Mit vollständiger Chronologie, Bibliografie, Werkindex und 600 großformatigen Farbreproduktionen sowie Fotos und Zeichnungen, die Renoirs Leben und Werk illustrieren, ist dieses Buch ein unverzichtbares Nachschlagewerk für alle, die sich mit diesem Meistermaler auseinandersetzen möchten.

Nach kurzen Abstechern in Realismus, Impressionismus und Symbolismus fand der in Kiew geborene Kasimir Malewitsch (1878–1935) seine Berufung in der Auflösung konkreter, darstellender Figuren und Landschaften in einer reinen, emotional aufgeladenen Abstraktion. Im Jahr 1915 schuf er das Bild, das weithin als erstes und vollendetes abstraktes Kunstwerk angesehen wird: Schwarzes Quadrat (1915), ein gleichseitiges schwarzes Rechteck auf weißem Grund, das später als „Nullpunkt der Malerei“ gefeiert wurde, als ein zukunftsweisender Augenblick für die moderne und abstrakte Kunst. Malewitsch hat sich in seinem künstlerischen Werdegang intensiv mit den neuesten künstlerischen Strömungen seiner Zeit auseinandergesetzt und mit dem Suprematismus die erste konsequent gegenstandslose Kunstrichtung entwickelt. Dass er in seinem Spätwerk zur figurativen Malerei zurückkehrte, sorgte für erhebliche Irritation. Diese Einführung zeichnet ein außergewöhnlich spannendes Künstlerleben nach und verortet seine bahnbrechenden Leistungen im Kontext der internationalen Avantgarde.

Caravaggio : 1571-1610 : génius, který předběhl svou dobu

Nenapravitelnému enfant terrible italského barokního malířství Caravaggiovi (1571-1610) se konečně dostává pozornosti, kterou si zaslouží. Ačkoli jeho jméno je každému známé, jeho dílo bylo dosud často zatracováno a vytlačováno na okraj zájmu. Jeho teatrální realismus byl ve své době nepřijatelný, svatokrádežné náměty a práce s modely z nižších tříd byly ostře odsuzovány. Znovuobjeven byl až v devatenáctém století a dnes platí za nejvýznamnějšího malíře raně barokní doby. Bez něj by nebyli Ribera, Zurbarán, Velázquez, Vermeer nebo Georges de la Tour. Franz Hals, Rembrandt, Delacroix a Manet by byli malovali jinak.
