■ EDITED BY CL A IRE WI LCOX
This definitive publication on
Alexander McQueen (1969–2010)
invites you into the creative mind and world
of one of Britain’s most brilliant, daring,
and provocative designers, and the many
themes and references that shaped his
visionary fashion collections.
A true comprehensive study, this
catalog is the first in-depth look at
McQueen and explores key themes of the
exhibition—tailoring, gothic, primitivism,
naturalism, and futurism. The book also
features previously unseen material as
well as groundbreaking essays and feature
spreads by multiple authors and leading
fashion commentators. This kaleidoscopic
approach explores themes central to the
designer’s work and his collections, such as
the psychology of fashion, natural history,
the theatre and spectacle of his shows,
and the key creative collaborators during
McQueen’s lifetime.
Alexander McQueen also offers an
encyclopedic survey of McQueen’s catwalk
collections, illustrated with striking images
by leading fashion photographers, and
specially commissioned photographs that
capture the breathtaking skill of his designs
and awesome theatricality of his shows.
Claire Wilcox is senior curator of the
Department of Furniture, Textiles and
Fashion department at the V&A and lecturer
at the London College of Fashion.

Nautical style has been an enduring mainstay of
the fashion world, and Nautical Chic is a lavish
celebration of its iconic looks and perennial popularity,
tracing the history of its trends and impact on the
clothes we love. Each chapter traces a current nautical
trend from its origins to reveal the secrets of its sartorial
past. While “The Officer” details how epaulettes, brass
buttons, and braiding came to be Balmain and Givenchy
catwalk staples, “The Sailor” explores the undeniable
sex appeal of the Navy, and “The Fisherman” charts
how blue-and-white Breton stripes became the choice
of such style arbiters as Coco Chanel and Audrey
Hepburn. “The Sportsman” covers this classic all-
American look, while “The Pirate” concludes the book
with an homage to Captain Hook, Vivienne Westwood,
and Alexander McQueen. Nautical Chic is the definitive
history of nautical fashion, citing the most recognizable
trends, the icons who made them memorable, and the
intriguing story of how they came to be.
Amber Jane Butchart is a writer, broadcaster, and
fashion historian. She is associate lecturer at London
College of Fashion, contributor to leading trend-
analysis company WGSN, and the mind behind the
Theatre of Fashion blog.

current for several years or longer—maintaining perennial
favorites and occasional revivals. Concentrating on wed-
ding style, but also featuring thoughts on etiquette and
history, this book captures some of the abiding wisdom
and witticisms that surround the Happy Day.

Piet Mondrian’s rigorously geometric paintings in
primary colors are icons of the 20th century that
had a powerful impact on popular taste in art and design.
This volume brings together more than 230 superb paint-
ings with documentary images from the artist’s life. The
less-well-known work that Mondrian did in the 30 years
before his breakthrough to abstraction—especially his
landscape and flower paintings—is remarkably beautiful,
and to see it arranged chronologically is to enter the mind
of an artist who is constantly looking for the next step that
will take him from traditional realism to a universal vision
of color and form. The book includes rare photographs
of Mondrian’s studios in Paris and New York City as well
as reproductions of more than 1,000 known works of
Mondrian’s in black and white.
Cees W. de Jong is a Dutch designer, publisher,
and curator; Robert P. Welsh was co-author of the
Mondrian catalogue raisonné; Katjuscha Otte, Ingelies
Vermeulen, and Marjory Degen are Dutch art historians;
Marty Bax studies the relationship between art and
Western Exoticism.

Beloved artist Richard Diebenkorn (1922–1993) is
best known for paintings that powerfully evoke
the California coast from San Francisco to Los Angeles.
A West Coast native, Diebenkorn captured the light and
color of the land and sea in a way that resonates with
anyone who has spent time there. This volume contains a
biographical introduction by Sarah C. Bancroft, an essay
on Diebenkorn’s influences by Steven Nash, and an
essay on Diebenkorn’s works on paper by Edith Devaney.
Together these bring the artist’s rich, four-decade-long
career into focus. The book covers Diebenkorn’s three
distinct periods, which saw him gain recognition as a
leading Abstract Expressionist in the early 1950s, then
turn to figurative painting, before embarking on a highly
successful period of abstract paintings and drawings—
the Ocean Park Series. It is the perfect introduction to the
work of this seminal California artist.
Sarah C. Bancroft is associate director of curatorial
affairs at the Austin, Texas, art non-profit Fluent-
Collaborative. Steven Nash is JoAnn McGrath executive
director of Palm Springs Art Museum. Edith Devaney is
head of summer exhibition and curator of contemporary
projects at the Royal Academy of Arts.

Christopher Marley’s art expresses his passionate
engagement with the beautiful forms of nature.
Beginning with insects and moving on to aquatic life,
reptiles, birds, plants, and minerals, Marley uses his skills
as a designer and naturalist to create three-dimensional
artwork that produces strong, positive emotional
responses in viewers. Marley has a brilliant eye for color
and pattern in different natural objects, and he expertly
captures the deep relationships among them. Biophilia
(literally, “love of living things”) is a must-have for nature
lovers, designers, artists, craftspeople, and anyone
looking for visual inspiration in the arts.
Christopher Marley is an artist and designer who uses
preserved natural specimens as his medium of design. To
create this work, he collects or reclaims exotic specimens
in an environmentally responsible manner using a
worldwide network of people and institutions who share
his passion for nature. His popular first book, Pheromone
(2008), focused on his artwork with insects. He lives and
works in Oregon.
Christopher Marley’s artwork vividly intersects the exquisite worlds of design and nature

Chickens the perfect gift
Flaunting their high-fashion plumage,
chickens strut and pose like runway mod-
els for photographer Ernest Goh. These birds,
with their all-too-human expressions, are both
funny and poignant, as if they are commenting
on our own foibles. From the proud Serama of
Malaysia to the delightfully humorous Silkie,
Goh’s portraits, shot on location throughout
the world, convey not only the beauty and
diversity of various breeds, but also capture
the personality of each fowl. For sheer variety
in size, color, feathering, and behavior, nothing
beats the humble chicken, and no other book
captures this surprising phenomenon as well as
the hilarious Chickens.
Ernest Goh developed a passion for
animals as a young boy in the streams of his
grandmother’s kampung village in Singapore.
Chickens is Goh’s second book; he published
The Fish Book in 2011.
These chickens are funny, proud, and full of personality

No animal has captured the human
imagination quite like the horse,
depicted in cave drawings thousands of years
ago through countless renderings in paint, clay,
ink, even film. Award-winning photographer
Tim Flach’s quest to document the horse has
resulted in Equus, an intensely moving look at
an animal—as solitary subject and en masse,
from the air and from underwater—whose
history is so powerfully linked to our own. This
highly successful book, originally published in
2008, is now available in a new, more afford-
able format. Equus provides an amazing and
unique insight into the physical dynamics and
spirit of the horse.
Tim Flach is a graduate of Central Saint Martins
in London, where he studied photography. He
spent 20 years as a successful advertising
photographer before turning to more personal
work, garnering much press and many awards
along the way.

In 1950, photographer Gisèle Freund embarked on a
two-week trip to Mexico, but she wouldn’t leave until
two years later. There she met the legendary couple
Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera. Welcomed into their home,
she immersed herself in their private lives and the cultural
and artistic diversity of the country, taking hundreds of
photographs. These powerful photographs, among the
last taken before Kahlo’s death, bear poignant witness to
Frida’s beauty and talent.
Showcasing more than 100 of these rare images,
many of which have never been published before, the
book also includes previously unpublished commentary
by Gisèle Freund about Frida Kahlo, texts by Kahlo’s
biographer Gérard de Cortanze and art historian Lorraine
Audric, as well as a link to a previously unreleased color
film, shot by Freund, showing Diego Rivera at work.
Gisèle Freund (1908–2000) was one of the first female
members of Magnum Photos and is also known as one
of the greatest portrait photographers of all time. She
photographed an incredible number of renowned writers
and artists, including Vladimir Nabokov, Virginia Woolf,
and James Joyce, among others.

Everyone knows a Feiffer illustration when they
see one: His characters leap across the page,

Over Feiffer’s prolific 70-year career, his nimble and
singular imagination has given us new perspectives
as well as biting satires on politics, love, marriage,
and religion—alternating with stories imbued with
the playful anarchy of a child. Feiffer’s varied output
includes children’s books (The Phantom Tollbooth and

Knowledge and Popeye), and comic strips (most notably
in his Pulitzer Prize–winning Village Voice comic strip
of 42 years). Out of Line: The Art of Jules Feiffer is
the long-awaited illustrated retrospective of Feiffer’s
celebrated career, providing a revealing glimpse into
his creative process and his role as America’s foremost
Renaissance man of the arts.

In Secret Gardens, readers experience the magic of dis-
covering beautiful, intricately planned, and meticulously
cultivated hidden worlds. More than 200 spectacular
images showcase 13 private gardens, extraordinary
examples of landscape design that are usually inac-
cessible to the public, and which have never—or very
rarely—been featured in any publication. From France,
Spain, Germany, the Caribbean, Australia, New Zealand,
and more, these gardens offer a dizzying range of horti-
cultural and conceptual diversity. The designers reflect
on the steps that went into bringing the garden to life,
and the book concludes with biographies of landscape
architects whose work is featured within, explaining the
creative vision of some of the most respected design
professionals working today.
Alain Le Toquin has photographed gardens around the
world for the last 10 years. To date, he has visited more

The Dassault Falcon Legend ■ BY MICHAEL A . TAVERNA
Fifty years ago, one of the first true busi-

have followed, each with the same sleek lines,
smooth handling, and peerless reliability and
efficiency displayed by that first Falcon. Today
there are more than 1,500 Dassault Falcon jets
flying in the U.S. Published to celebrate the
50th anniversary of the legendary Falcon 20,
designed under the leadership of company
founder Marcel Dassault with the help of Charles
Lindbergh and Juan Trippe—two other aviation
visionaries—this richly illustrated book tells the
story of this legendary plane and the remarkable
models that followed. Technical know-how, qual-
ity of flight, exceptional aerodynamics, luxury,
and comfort—the Falcon stands as a coveted
aircraft that has earned a privileged place in
aviation history.

Middle Europe—personal anecdotes about the making of the film, and other
reflections on his filmmaking process. These interviews are accompanied
by behind-the-scenes photos, ephemera, and artwork, as well as exclusive
critical essays by Ali Arikan, Steven Boone, David Bordwell, Olivia Collette,

Tracing the emergence of Ayn Rand’s philosophy of
objectivism in the 1940s to her present-day influence,
Darryl Cunningham’s latest work of graphic-nonfiction
investigation leads readers to the heart of the global
financial crisis of 2008. Cunningham uses Rand’s biography
to illuminate the policies that led to the economic crash in
the U.S. and in Europe, and how her philosophy continues
to affect today’s politics and policies, starting with her most
noted disciple, economist Alan Greenspan (former chairman
of the Federal Reserve). Cunningham also shows how
right-wing conservatives, libertarians, and the Tea Party
movement have co-opted Rand’s teachings (and inherent
contradictions) to promote personal gain and profit at the
expense of the middle class. Tackling the complexities of
economics by distilling them down to a series of concepts
accessible to all age groups, Cunningham ultimately delivers
a devastating analysis of our current economic world.
Darryl Cunningham is a cartoonist, photographer, and
sculptor. His previous award-winning graphic nonfiction
includes Psychiatric Tales and How to Fake a Moon Landing.
He lives in Yorkshire, England.
An in-depth and accessible graphic novel
about the current economic crisis, how
we got there, and how all roads lead back to Ayn Rand
“It takes other authors whole books
to say what Darryl can say in a single
sentence.” —Jon Ronson, author
of The Men Who Stare at Goats
“A brilliant achievement. Darryl
Cunningham’s pithy prose and funky
art tell a complex, important tale—one
that connects the dots from Ayn
Rand to Alan Greenspan to the mess
we’re in today—with clarity and zing.
Everyone should read this book.”

Work), in Words and Pictures

Yumiko was born in Japan but has made a life in
London, losing herself in its cosmopolitan bustle.
She has a gallery show of her art, a good job, and a
good guy she plans to marry. The culture she grew up
in seems very far away—until her brother phones with
the news that their father has died. Yumiko returns to
Tokyo and finds herself immersed in the rituals of death
while also plunged into the rituals of life—fish bars, bullet
trains, pagodas—as she confronts the question of where
her future really lies. Just So Happens deals both gently
and powerfully with grief, identity, and the pressure not
to disappoint one’s parents, even after they’re gone, in
a look at the relationships that build the foundation of
our lives.
Fumio Obata was born in Tokyo and moved to England in
1991. He studied illustration at the Glasgow School of Art
and received his master’s degree from the Royal College
of Art in London. As an animator, Obata has worked
with Duran Duran and the UK’s Channel 4. He lives in
Gloucestershire, England.
A debut graphic novel of delicate
beauty about being an outsider . . . and
what we mean when we say “home”
“As beautiful as it is observant.”
—Guardian

Living gluten-free is not a whole lot of fun, but at least April
has managed to make it funny. Gluten Is My Bitch is a brutally
honest, entertaining look at what living a gluten-free life entails.
As an antidote to the tragic news that, no, you will never eat
regular donuts again, April provides 40 gluten-free comfort food
recipes and a bonus 20 new recipes in the paperback edition that
will make even the most frustrated gluten-intolerant smile with
relief. In the new paperback, April addresses the challenges of
sustaining a gluten-free lifestyle once you’ve transitioned from
the gluten-filled world. With updated resources and brand-new
recipes for everyday meals, the paperback offers a complete look
at living gluten-free for life.
April Peveteaux is the creator and cook behind the popular
blog Gluten Is My Bitch. After the one-two punch of moving to
Los Angeles and being diagnosed with celiac disease, April
has written about her gluten-free lifestyle on several blogs and
publications. Her next book, The Gluten-Free Cheat Sheet, will be

In 1747, Antoine Maille opened his first shop,
creating and selling vinegars not just for cook-
ing, but also to fight the spread of the plague and
to improve the complexion. After becoming the
supplier to European royal courts from France
to Russia, Maille was dubbed “the first man of
mustard in Europe.” Since that time, Maille has
become known for their delicious Dijon mustards,
oils, vinegars, and pickles. This tantalizing book
explores Maille and offers 40 original recipes for
every occasion, from appetizers and suppers with
friends to romantic dinners and, of course, parties.
Renowned head chef Jean-Pierre Biffi has
directed the kitchens of the celebrated Parisian

Grilling. Broiling. Smoking. Roasting. Baking. The
kamado grill does it all. And people who use it swear
that they could never go back to gas, propane, or even a
standard charcoal grill. Kamado aficionados are obsessed
with the superior flavor of the food and the grill’s seemingly
unlimited capabilities. Hot Coals is the must-have resource
for kamado devotees. Complete with the kamado’s long
history, proper techniques for use, and the science behind
the grill, plus how to infuse specific flavors and which tools
to buy, this book is the comprehensive guide. More than 30
delicious recipes, such as wood smoked haddock, vegetable
lasagna, duck breast with orange and thyme, Margherita
pizza, focaccia bread, and apple almond crumble tart,
showcase the cooker’s range and demonstrate the rich and
savory flavors infused from the grill. Hot Coals is thorough,
informative, and interesting—an accessible package for both
novice and advanced kamado fans.
Jeroen Hazebroek and Leonard Elenbaas are chefs that
specialize in kamado cooking and grilling. Hazebroek has
competed in both American and European style BBQ com-

In this follow-up to Knit to Flatter, author Amy Herzog is back with more
real-talk for knitters. In Knit Wear Love, she guides us through picking a
base pattern that works for our inherent shape, then customizing it to suit our
size and style—all with the skill of a top-notch teacher and designer and the
honesty and humor of a BFF.
Known for her uncanny ability to simplify what might initially seem com-
plex, Herzog masterminded for Knit Wear Love an easy mix-and-match pattern
system that allows us to choose among the eight key sweater forms (pullover,
cardigan, vest, cowl, tunic, wrap, tank, and bolero/shrug); eight fashion styles
(modern, classic, romantic, sporty, bohemian, avant-garde, vintage, and
casual); a trove of customization details; ten sizes; and three gauges of yarn.
The result? Sweaters we can knit with confidence, wear with pride, and
love for many years to come.

Forget step-by-step instructions and copycat
designs. In The Improv Handbook for Modern
Quilters, Sherri Lynn Wood presents a spontaneous
approach to quilting that breaks free of old paradigms.
Instead of traditional instructions, she presents 10
frameworks (or scores) that create a guiding, but not lim-
iting, structure. To help quilters gain confidence, Wood
also offers detailed lessons for stitching techniques
key to improvisation, design and spontaneity exercises,
and lessons on color. Every quilt made from one of
Wood’s scores will have common threads, but each
one will look different because it reflects the maker’s
unique interpretation. Featured throughout the book are
Wood’s own quilts and a gallery of contributor works
chosen from among the hundreds submitted when she
invited volunteers to test her scores during the making
of this groundbreaking work.
Sherri Lynn Wood’s work has been shown at the
North Carolina Museum of Art, Southeastern Center
for Contemporary Art, San Francisco’s Museum of
Craft and Folk Art, and other venues. Twice awarded
a North Carolina Arts Council Artist Fellowship and a

aspiring artist, but its blank pages can be daunting to
even the most motivated. Obsessed with perfection, many

playgrounds. In Drawing Is Magic, author John Hendrix
teaches aspiring and advanced artists to find their unique
visual voices and become creative daredevils. Through his
freeing, offbeat exercises, drawers learn a sophisticated
philosophy of creative thinking—in a way that is totally
accessible and fun.

rules along the way, Rebecca Ringquist’s Embroidery
Workshops is a refreshing new resource for both standard

nontraditional threads and fabrics, draw with thread free-
form, and mix and match machine- and hand-stitching.
Also featured are instructions for 20 innovative projects,
including a cloth sampler designed especially for the
book (and packaged in an envelope at the back), table
linens, wall art, and clothing embellishments.

The History of Fly Fishing in Fifty Flies recounts the
history of a sport that dates back 2,000 years, focus-
ing on milestone flies from the first feathered hook to con-
temporary patterns using cutting-edge materials. Among
the countless fly patterns created over the centuries,
these 50 have been carefully chosen to represent the
development not only of the flies themselves, but also of
fly-fishing techniques—and of rods, lines, and reels. These
iconic flies also chart the spread of this addictive sport
from its modern origins on the chalk streams of southern
England and the rivers of Scotland to the U.S., Europe,
South America, Australia, and now to every country in the
world. Filled with profiles of the key characters involved,
tying tips, photographs and illustrations of the flies, and
detailed explanations of the techniques used to fish them,
The History of Fly Fishing in Fifty Flies is a fascinating
companion to the evolution of this fascinating sport.
Ian Whitelaw, a freelance writer based in British
Columbia, has been a regular contributor of articles to
fly-fishing websites and magazines and has been the
contributing editor on more than a dozen books on fish-
ing for major publishers.

Said . . ., collected a rainbow of helpful, humorous,
and questionable wisdom from our moms and has been
a solid success. It’s not fair that mothers should get all
the attention, so the next branch on the family tree to
explore belongs to fathers. The same crowdsourcing that
brought together the scores of quotations and stories for
the first book is also at work here. From quips to short
anecdotes, the book is divided up into all the sage and
nutty information we garner from our fathers in chapters
such as “Growing Up Right,” “The Facts of Life,” “Dad’s

What’s inside the perfect cup of coffee?
How to Make Coffee isn’t just a
recipe book for brewing a cup of drip; instead, it
explores the history and science of coffee, from
a goatherd’s observation of the effects of coffee
beans on his animals to the way the human body
processes and uses caffeine. How to Make Coffee
asserts that, beyond the beans themselves,
making good coffee depends on understanding
the science; why water has to be at a certain
temperature, and what methods work best with
each grind. Brimming with fascinating information
about the chemistry of coffee and the best ways to
brew it, How to Make Coffee is the go-to book for
coffee lovers, connoisseurs, and anyone looking
for the best way to brew the perfect cup.
Lani Kingston obtained a master’s degree in food
studies and food writing from the University of
Adelaide and a master’s in education from Deakin
University. Her expertise includes not only coffee
but the anthropology of food and food heritage.
This is her first book.
A coffee-lover’s guide to the
chemistry of coffee with step-by-step
brewing techniques

James Ellroy, the undisputed master of crime writing,
has teamed up with the Los Angeles Police Museum
to present a stunning text on 1953 LA. While combing the
museum’s photo archives, Ellroy discovered that the year
featured a wide array of stark and unusual imagery—and
he has written 25,000 words that illuminate the crimes
and law enforcement of the era. Ellroy offers context and
layers on wild and rich atmosphere—this is the cauldron
that was police work in the city of the tarnished angels
more than six decades ago. More than 80 duotone
photos are spread throughout the book in the manner of
hard-edged police evidence.
James Ellroy is the award-winning author of 18 books,
including The Black Dahlia, L.A. Confidential, White Jazz,
American Tabloid, and The Cold Six Thousand. Ellroy’s
latest novel, Perfidia, was published by Alfred A. Knopf
in September 2014. Housed in the oldest surviving LAPD
station, the Los Angeles Police Museum chronicles
the formation and development of the LAPD from its
beginnings in 1869. Glynn Martin has been in and around
the LAPD for more than 30 years and has served as the
museum’s executive director for more than a decade.

tinued to send shock waves with his later shows,

for the perfect line and how his unique style and
vision of women’s ideal silhouette developed. One
of the most famous designers of the 20th century,

haute couture fashion houses. Vogue on Christian
Dior is a volume from the series created by the
editors of British Vogue. It features 20,000 words
of original biography and history and is studded

Ralph Lauren’s designs vividly embody
the American Dream, and he has
risen to become one of the world’s foremost
fashion designers. His genius lies in his innate
skill for interpreting key cultural elements of
Americana—whether from folk art or the preppy
world of Hamptons socialites or Navajo motifs—
and encapsulating them in appealing garments.
From his ubiquitous, equestrian-tagged Polo
shirts to his American-country-club take on
upper-class Englishness, his skill in making
aspiration accessible is second to none. Vogue
on Ralph Lauren is a volume from the series
created by the editors of British Vogue, featur-
ing 20,000 words of original biography and
history and studded with more than 80 images
from their unique archive of photos taken by
leading photographers, including Bruce Weber,
Patrick Demarchelier, and Mario Testino.
Kathleen Baird-Murray is a writer for British
Vogue and a columnist for the Financial Times.

It’s hard to meet people in a big city, let alone any city.
And after living in LA for several years as a single lady,
Audrey Shulman turned to baking. But rather than eat-
ing her cakes solo over the sink, she brought them to
bars, luring guys with a heady dose of butter and sugar.
Sitting in Bars with Cakes recounts Audrey’s year
spent baking, bar-hopping, and offering slices of cake
to men in the hope of finding her soul mate (or, at the
very least, a date). With 35 inventive recipes based on
her interactions with guys from all walks of life, from
a Sticky Maple Kiss Cake to a Bitter Chocolate Dump
Cake, this charming book pairs each cake with a short
essay and tongue-in-cheek lesson about picking up
boys in bars.
And while Audrey didn’t meet her soul mate, her
collection of stories will serve as inspiration for anyone
who has ever put themselves out there in hope of
finding true love.
Audrey Shulman is the writer of Sitting in Bars with
Cake, a blog she started with the intent to lure men with
baked goods. A Southern transplant from Nashville,
Tennessee, Shulman now lives in Los Angeles.

Ready to revisit the early ’90s—that golden era of big
bangs, Bubble Tape, and doing the Bartman? Meet
your tour guide: Dawn Luebbe, an 11-year-old Nebraskan
obsessed with 90210 and writing Kurt Cobain–inspired
poetry. In My 1992 Diary, Dawn shares with readers her zany,
silly, and deadpan adolescent observations. She touches on
the cornerstones of growing up—from crushes to siblings to
Ouija boards—all peppered with memorable call-outs from
the height of ’90s culture.
The book is filled with 75 diary entries, each hilariously
narrated on its corresponding page. It’s organized into
chapters such as Passion on the Prairie, Attempts to Be Cool,
Preteen Conflict: The Art of Overreaction, and more. With
Dawn’s self-deprecating, every-girl humor, My 1992 Diary is a
charming and joyful read for the 11-year-old in all of us.
Dawn Luebbe is a New York City–based actor and comedian
and a performer at Upright Citizens Brigade. She has
performed at comedy festivals and theaters around the
country, including SF (San Francisco) Sketchfest, Austin’s
Out of Bounds, New York Comedy Festival, and more. She
has been seen on CollegeHumor, NickMom, TheKnot.com,

Art’s impact can be both straightforward and
unpredictable. It can hit us immediately or linger
in the wings for a while, coming over us when we least
expect it. Art can change minds or attitudes, provoke
anger or shock, inspire laughter or tears. It can intimidate,
disconcert, pose conundrums or puzzles, instruct, or
enlighten. Every work of art offers a window on society’s
values and ideals, and expresses the perceptions and
memories of its artist. But art presents a daunting ques-
tion: How do we evaluate, explore, and respond to it?
Unpretentious and engaging as ever, art historian Susie
Hodge offers clear, concise tools to interpret and respond
to a broad variety of artwork and artists’ philosophies.
Perfect for the art lover who doesn’t love art-world jargon,
How to Look at Art paves the way for encounters with art
that are enriching, creativity-fueling, and fun.
Susie Hodge is a British author, art historian, and artist.
In this follow-up to How to Survive Modern Art, Susie
Hodge tackles a big topic: How can we evaluate,
explore, and respond to art?

One of the most popular painters of all
time, J. M. W. Turner (1775–1851) created
a remarkable collection of sketchbooks over the
course of his career. Thoughtful, revealing, and
beautifully rendered, Turner’s sketchbooks offer an
unparalleled window into his creative process. In the
absence of detailed written accounts of his extensive
travels, the notebooks also contain his impressions
of the many places he visited across Britain and
Europe. In this book, the first full survey of the artist’s
sketchbooks, readers are invited to take a privileged
look over Turner’s shoulder, witnessing the creation
and development of ideas that can be traced through
to his major paintings. Beginning with his teenage
efforts and culminating in the atmospheric color stud-
ies of his last years, Turner’s Sketchbooks is a unique
opportunity to explore the mind of a beloved artist.
Ian Warrell is an independent curator specializing
in British art of the 19th century. He was a curator at
Tate for more than 25 years and is the leading author-
ity on the life and work of Turner.

Modern Art and St. Ives explores the art
and artists associated with this seaside
Cornwall town from 1915 to 1965. The authors
investigate how the art of St. Ives drew upon two
key strands of modern art: the utopian ideal of
constructivism that began in Moscow in the 1910s
and continued through Berlin and Paris between
the world wars, and the tradition of craft and the
handmade. Major works by leading St. Ives artists
such as Peter Lanyon, Barbara Hepworth, and
Ben Nicholson are placed alongside the work of
their contemporaries from elsewhere in Europe,
North America, and beyond.

art at Tate Britain. Sara Matson is a curator at

A founding figure of pop art and one of the
most influential British artists of the 20th
century, Richard Hamilton (1922–2011) continued
to experiment and innovate over a 60-year career.
This book spans the full scope of Hamilton’s
output, exploring his relationship to design,
painting, photography, and television, as well as
his engagement and collaborations with other
artists. Featured here are seminal works such as
the era-defining Just what is it that makes today’s
homes so different, so appealing? (1956) and the
depiction of Mick Jagger in the iconic Swingeing
London 67, as well as many other images. The
book also showcases wider contemporary
issues and political subjects in Hamilton’s work,
including the Kent State shootings and the IRA
“dirty protests.” Including more than 250 full-color
illustrations, this will be the definitive volume on
Hamilton’s work for years to come.

I Don’t Know . The Weave of Textile Language is a
unique project by the renowned American artist
Richard Tuttle (b. 1941). Tuttle, who came to prominence
in the 1960s, is revered for his delicate and playful
approach, often using such humble, everyday materials
as cloth, paper, rope, and plywood. Drawing on Tuttle’s
knowledge as a longstanding collector of textiles from
around the world, the book investigates the importance
of the material throughout history, across Tuttle’s remark-
able body of work, and into the latest developments in his
practice. Included are photographs of Tuttle’s collection;
essays about the historical, aesthetic, social, and
material value of textiles; images of works from a recent
Whitechapel Gallery exhibition; and documentation of
his newly commissioned sculpture in Tate Modern’s
Turbine Hall.
Richard Tuttle is a vital force in the development of
conceptualism and postminimalism. He lives and works
in Mount Desert, Maine; Abiquiu, New Mexico; and New
York City. Achim Borchardt-Hume is head of exhibitions
at Tate Modern. Magnus af Petersens is chief curator at

A key figure in a succession of art move-
ments in the early 20th century, Kazimir
Malevich (1879–1935) was Russia’s most influential
avant-garde artist. His style of severe geometric
abstraction, which he called “suprematism,” was
a precursor to constructivism. When, in the 1930s,
his work was banned in the Soviet Union after the
Stalinist regime labeled abstract art as “bourgeois,”
he developed a new kind of figuration, still with
the sole aim of communicating his theories about
the nature of art. Illustrated with paintings, draw-
ings, and sculptures, as well as the teaching charts
Malevich used to explain his ideas, this expansive
volume offers new insight into the artist’s career.
Accessible essays by leading art historians
discuss all aspects of his diverse output, offering
an overview of his groundbreaking work, as well
as a detailed exploration of many of his drawings,
teaching activities, and revolutionary ideas.

The enduring relevance of Dutch-born artist Piet
Mondrian (1872–1944) speaks to his pioneering
role in abstract art, but also to the complex relationship
between his artworks, the space around them, and the
belief that they were conceived to inspire. His studios in
Amsterdam, Paris, and New York reflect different stages
of the painter’s way of thinking as well as his evolving
intentions. Each studio was designed to allow the artist
to perform a clearly defined intellectual and social role.
An eye-opening look into the spaces that inspired him,
this book also explores Mondrian’s broader relationship
with architecture and urbanism, particularly through a
comparison of his earlier Parisian works and those made
in the frenetic modern cityscape of New York. Vividly
illustrated with many of Mondrian’s best-known works
and photographs of the artist in his studios, this intriguing
book sheds new light on his creative process.
Francesco Manacorda is artistic director of Tate
Liverpool. Michael White is senior lecturer in the history
of art at the University of York.

One of the most significant filmmakers of
modern times (Ivan’s Childhood, Andrei
Rublev, Solaris, The Mirror, and Stalker), Andrei
Tarkovsky (1932–1986) was hugely influenced
by the poems of his father, Arsenii (1907–1989).
Rendered here for the first time in English, the
poems echo through many of the films and
illuminate the creative relationship between
father and son. While his son’s place in film
history is acknowledged worldwide, Arsenii, who
fell afoul of Soviet censorship, is still little-known
outside Russia. The 148 poems translated here
explore universal themes such as love, nature,
family, aging, war, and memory, and place the
poetry within the context of the father/son and
poet/filmmaker relationship that so dominates the
Tarkovsky story.

literature at Cambridge for 20 years and is a

First published in 1922 in post-revolutionary
Russia, a revolutionary children’s book by
Russian avant-garde artist El Lissitzky (1890–1941)
is available once more, for collectors and art
and design enthusiasts. Imagination-stretching,
radically simple, and yet beautifully sophisticated,
About Two Squares tells the story of two squares
that take on the mission of rebuilding the world.
Inspired by Kazimir Malevich’s suprematist vision
of a nonobjective art, About Two Squares stirred
up the European art world with its publication in
Theo van Doesburg’s avant-garde art journal, De
Stijl, and redefined what an illustrated book could
be. Left wonderfully open-ended, the book’s final
words—“and then . . .”—encourage young readers
to reinvent the world for themselves.
El Lissitzky was a Russian painter, typographer,
architect, and designer whose radical innovations
in typography and photomontage continue to
influence artists and designers today.

standing in the English countryside and
a multipart work, Labyrinth, made for
the 150th anniversary of the London
Underground. Like all titles in this series,

Beloved British illustrator Quentin Blake
(b. 1932) is perhaps best known in the
U.S. for his long partnership with James and the
Giant Peach author Roald Dahl. Throughout his
remarkable 50-year career, Blake collaborated
with other authors such as Russell Hoban, John
Yeoman, and Michael Rosen; created children’s
books of his own; and illustrated adult classics by
Cervantes, Cyrano de Bergerac, Voltaire, and La
Fontaine. Now, in this collaboration between Tate
and London’s new House of Illustration, Blake’s
inimitable work comes to life. A brilliant survey
of Blake’s oeuvre, at once intimate, perceptive,
and illuminating, and written with an exuberance
matching that of its subject, Quentin Blake is sure
to delight longtime fans of the artist as well as
those who have just discovered him.
Joanna Carey is a writer, artist, and former
children’s book editor for the Guardian.

Vividly illustrated, Conflict, Time,
Photography zeroes in on war and its
aftermath, highlighting the fact that time itself is a
fundamental aspect of the photographic medium.
The images presented here articulate a range of
photographic perspectives, and include photo-
graphs made a few moments or a few days after
an event as well as those made several years,
decades, or even a century later. Spanning the
globe, this eye-opening book reveals conflicts
of the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries in new and
thought-provoking ways. Over days, months, and
years, the war-torn landscapes, urban ruination,
peacetime reconstruction, and human cost of war
explored here expose new dimensions of conflict.

Charles James (1906–1978)—one of the most
celebrated and sought-after couturiers of his
day, and subject of a major exhibition in summer 2014
at The Metropolitan Museum of Art—won ecstatic
praise for his highly innovative designs. Without formal
training, he created some of the most ambitious and
dramatic couture of the 20th century and became
the designer of choice for powerful clients, including
Marlene Dietrich, Gypsy Rose Lee, and socialites
Millicent Rogers and Austine Hearst (wife of William
Randolph Hearst Jr.). James was particularly famous
for his nearly fanatical perfectionism and unpredictable
temperament; his contracts with the ready-to-wear
industry often ended in legal wrangling and
contributed to both his financial ruin and a reputation
as a troubled genius. In this book, the first in a new
series, James’s reputation is reexamined and his
most stunning designs are analyzed in exacting detail,
uncovering his geometric rigor and passion for materi-
als. Featuring illustrations, new garment photography,
and archival material, this is the perfect introduction to
James’s stunning work.
Timothy A. Long is curator of fashion and decorative
arts at the Museum of London.

What does a magazine’s look and feel
say about it? Sometimes more than its
written content. Starting with the advent of two
periodicals—Punch in 1841 and the Illustrated
London News a year later—this groundbreaking
study investigates the design history of British
magazines over the past 170 years, right up to the
beginnings of digital distribution. This pioneering
survey of a still-developing story encompasses
graphic design, typography, pho tography, and
innovative print technology, and explores why
magazines have looked how they do and how
they have changed over time. The wealth of
superb illustrations is drawn from the V&A’s
National Art Library’s unparalleled archive of
periodicals.

While the early 20th century was
rich with creative energy, no one
brought theater and dance to the forefront
of culture quite like Sergei Diaghilev did with
his extraordinary Ballets Russes. From 1909
to 1929, the impresario attracted the involve-
ment of artists and designers (Picasso,
Matisse, Chanel), composers (Stravinsky),
dancers (Nijinsky and Massine), and even a
young George Balanchine. Now, this major
book, originally published to accompany a
retrospective exhibition at the Victoria and
Albert Museum, London, that traveled to the
National Gallery of Art, Washington, exam-
ines the origins, development, and long-term
influence of the Ballets Russes, the company
that showcased artistic collaboration at its
finest and revolutionized ballet for all time.
Jane Pritchard is curator of dance at
the V&A.

that became favorites of stylish women everywhere. Faye
Dunaway, Joan Collins, Barbra Streisand, and Elizabeth
Taylor were fans; Vogue’s Diana Vreeland championed
her clothes; and today vintage Thea Porter is worn by
Kate Moss, Nicole Richie, and other fashionistas. This first
book devoted to the UK-based fashion designer features
new photography of her fabulous clothes and jewelry
as well as press clippings, sketches, and excerpts from

Downton Abbey–era fashion is explored
through the life and extensive wardrobe of
real-life Edwardian London socialite Heather Firbank
(1888–1954), whose treasures, bought from the world’s
leading couturiers and the very best dressmakers
and tailors in London, were gifted to the V&A after her
death. The collection forms an invaluable record of a
stylish and wealthy woman’s taste from about 1905 to
1920, and actually served as inspiration to Downton
Abbey’s Emmy Award–winning costume designer,
Susannah Buxton. Beautifully illustrated with new pho-
tography of Firbank’s evening gowns, tailored suits, and
hats, the book also features contemporary photographs
and pages from Firbank’s own fashion cuttings albums.

Beautiful, sculptural objects, shoes are powerful indicators of gender,
status, identity, taste, and even sexual preference. Our choice in
shoes can be aspirational, even fantastical—and can project an image not
just of who we are, but of who we want to be. Feet are made for walking, but
shoes may not be. Featuring extensive new photography, this is a beautiful
and authoritative guide to the history and culture of footwear. Iconic
creations by celebrated designers sit alongside masterpieces by unknown
craftsmen. Embracing both men’s and women’s footwear, from the Chinese
lotus shoe to laser-printed contemporary shoes-as-sculpture, Shoes:
Pleasure & Pain engages with the cultural significance of shoes—the source
of their allure, how they are made, and the people who buy and wear them.
Contributors from a wide range of disciplines consider subjects as diverse
as ballet slippers and fetishism, shoes and ceramics, traditional shoemaking,
and the obsessive shoe collector. The book also includes a comprehensive
discussion of the history of shoe design, and case studies including Marie
Antoinette’s shoe collection and the footwear of the Maharajas.
Helen Persson is curator of Chinese textiles and dress in the V&A’s

Changing styles in footwear have always captured
the imagination and communicated the priorities
and ambitions of the wearer—during the reign of Henry VIII,
exaggerated shapes and wide toes were footwear’s reflec-
tion of the aggressive social climate of the court, while
engravings of Queen Victoria show impossibly narrow
slippers, worn in pursuit of 19th-century ideals of daintiness.
This colorful book provides an engaging overview of the
history of footwear.

Art deco—the style of the flapper, the luxury ocean
liner, and the skyscraper—came to epitomize
the glamour, luxury, and hedonism of the Jazz Age.
It burst onto the world stage at the 1925 Exposition
internationale des art decoratifs et industriels modernes
in Paris and quickly swept the globe. Its influence was felt
everywhere, from the skylines of New York and Shanghai
to the design of fashionable eveningwear, jewelry, and
plastic radios. Above all, it became the style of the plea-
sure palaces of the age—hotels, nightclubs, and movie
theaters. This authoritative publication brings together
leading experts in the field to explore the sources, varied
forms of expression, distinct visual language, and global
reach of deco. With its breathtaking illustrations, this
lavish volume is the definitive book on what is, arguably,
the most popular style of the 20th century.

Despite having lived through some of
the most dramatic changes of the
20th century, Stanley Anderson (1884–1966)
created a vision of an essentially timeless
English rural tradition in his etchings and
woodcuts. Anderson was a key figure in the
revival of engraving in the 1920s, and the
technique’s exacting craftsmanship, intimate
scale, and indelible sense of historicism were
a stark contrast to the modernist explosion.
This catalogue raisonné gathers, for the first
time, the complete oeuvre of Anderson’s
prints, from the townscapes of his early
career to his fascinating 20-year study of rural
crafts, including hedge-laying, carpentry, and
barrel-making.

“This book was started as a memoir of my mother
and subsequently developed into something
more like a diary, covering my recollections of a postwar
childhood in Worcestershire, an art-school education,
and subsequent obsessions. It may be read in the light,
or perhaps one should say in the shadow of its political
history.” So begins Tess Jaray’s remarkable memoir.
Whether providing insights into the mind of an artist or
recounting the eccentricities of Jaray’s singular child-
hood, The Blue Cupboard is a life-affirming testimonial
to a creative existence. A painter and printmaker whose
work is characterized by an enigmatic interaction of
forms and colors, Jaray creates patterns that suggest
spatial ambiguities and shifting structures that work on
the viewer’s perceptions in subtle ways. Her artworks
can be found in many public collections, and her
unique pavement designs can be seen in several cities
across England.

Without a doubt the most brilliant architectural innovator
of his day, Sir John Soane (1753–1837) displayed a
remarkable ability to adapt and modernize the language of
classical architecture. The range of his built designs, from the
ingenuity of his own house in London’s Lincoln’s Inn Fields (now
Sir John Soane’s Museum) to the opulence and originality of
the Bank of England, places him on a par with other leading
European neoclassicists, such as Ledoux and Schinkel. His
architectural vocabulary remains influential to this day. Back in
print, this landmark publication considers Soane’s architectural
achievements as well as his life and public role. It reproduces
more than 100 of Soane’s drawings and contains specially
commissioned photographs of his original models and existing
buildings. Contributors discuss all of the architect’s major com-
missions, including the Dulwich Picture Gallery, the Law Courts
at Westminster, and the Bank of England.

New York’s now-defunct Museum of Primitive
Art opened its landmark exhibition Senufo:
Sculpture from West Africa in February 1963. Under
the directorship of art historian Robert Goldwater,
the museum displayed together for the first time
a stunning array of arts attributed to Senufo
artists: face masks, helmet masks, and figurative
sculptures, all from a region spanning the borders
of present-day Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, and Mali.
Now, more than 50 years later, this new book draws
on archival, museum, and field-based data, includ-
ing previously unpublished letters, photographs,
and objects, to look back at that tour-de-force
exhibition, and offers a fresh, expanded view of a
dynamic region’s arts and identities.
Susan Elizabeth Gagliardi is assistant professor
of art history at Emory University in Atlanta. She
earned her PhD in art history from UCLA, and her
current research is based on nearly two years of

This award-winning graphic biography of Pablo Picasso
(1881–1973) captures the prolific and eventful life of one of the
world’s best-loved artists. Pablo explores Picasso’s early life among
the bohemians of Montmartre, his turbulent relationship with artist/
model Fernande Olivier, and how his art developed through friend-
ships with poets Max Jacob and Guillaume Apollinaire, the painter
Georges Braque, and his great rival Henri Matisse. Julie Birmant and
Clément Oubrerie depict a career that began in poverty and reached
its climax with the advent of cubism and modern art.
Julie Birmant, a former director of the Brussels film school INSAS, has
made documentaries on popular science and co-edited issues of the
Journal of Alternative Theatre. She lives in France. Clément Oubrerie is
a French artist who has illustrated more than 40 books. His first graphic
novel, Aya of Yop City, won the First Book Award at the Angoulême
International Comics Festival; was nominated for the YALSA Great
Graphic Novels list and an Eisner Award; and made best-of lists in the

creativity Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890) spent in Arles, Provence,

attacks of mental illness leave the painter confused and disoriented.
When his friend and fellow artist Paul Gauguin refuses to reside
permanently at the Yellow House, a distraught van Gogh cuts off
part of his own ear. Throughout this period of intense emotion and
hardship, Vincent’s brother Theo stands by him, offering constant and
unconditional support. Writer and illustrator Barbara Stok breathes
riveting new life into a fascinating episode of art history, creating a
vivid portrait of one of the world’s most beloved and legendary artists.
Barbara Stok is well known for her candid autobiographical graphic
novels. In addition to writing for newspapers and magazines, Stok has

“Romance is dead.” Or so says Pamela Green,
a middle-aged romance novelist suffering
from writer’s block. Then, as she crosses a bridge
over the Thames in London, her unsettled life
collides with that of a ragged young man who
has survived for months on London’s streets,
getting by on his wits . . . and his looks. Under
extraordinary circumstances, Pamela invites him
into her comfortable suburban home. There, in
spite of their obvious differences, they soon form
an unlikely partnership, their once-separate lives
revived and sent off in stark new directions. An
intense hothouse drama, fierce and true to life,
Room for Love is an original graphic novel unafraid
to play with fire.

The supernatural stories that make up Robert W.
Chambers’s classic piece of weird fiction are tied
together by a play that brings madness to all who read it:
The King in Yellow. It’s a book that draws readers in with
an irresistible yet innocent opening act, then drives them
insane with the poisonous words of Act 2. It’s a book
that cannot be suppressed, spreading like a disease
from city to city, continent to continent. An influence on
writers from H. P. Lovecraft to Neil Gaiman, The King in
Yellow is one of the most important works of American
supernatural fiction. In this dangerously unputdownable
graphic-novel adaptation, I. N. J. Culbard brings to life a
thrilling tale of horror that will make readers laugh and cry
and tremble with fright . . . Read at your own risk.
I. N. J. Culbard is an award-winning artist widely known
for his graphic adaptations of classics. He collaborated
on a critically acclaimed Sherlock Holmes series with
Ian Edginton, as well as adapting several titles by H. P.
Lovecraft. Culbard lives in England. Robert William
Chambers (1865–1933) was a Brooklyn-born artist and
author. After studying art in Paris, he worked as an illustra-
tor in New York for Life, Vogue, and Truth magazines. With
the immediate success of The King in Yellow, he became
a full-time author, publishing more than 70 books.

Jane Austen referred to Pride and Prejudice
(1813), the earliest of her published novels, as
her “darling child”—and generations of readers
have taken it to heart ever since. The irresistible
attraction she portrays between the sparkly,
independent Elizabeth Bennet and the solemnly
austere Mr. Darcy counts among the greatest, most
romantic—and funniest—love stories ever told. In
this graphic-novel adaptation, writer Ian Edginton
and artist Robert Deas introduce one of the best-
loved works of English literature to a new generation
of readers.
Ian Edginton, one Britain’s best-known comics
writers, has worked with Lucasfilm and Paramount
Pictures to adapt Star Wars, Star Trek, Alien,
Predator, and Terminator properties into comic-book
form. His graphic novel Scarlet Traces: The Great

Edginton lives in the UK. Robert Deas has illustrated

In 1924 the U.S. Army sent eight young men on a bold attempt to be
the first to circumnavigate the globe by flight. Men from five other
countries—Great Britain, France, Portugal, Italy, and Argentina—had
the same goal. The race was on!
First Flight Around the World documents the exciting journey of
four American planes and their crews on a race around the world. The
world fliers risked their lives for the sake of national pride.
Based in part on the journal of one of the crew members, First
Lieutenant Leslie Arnold, along with commentary, newspaper reports,
and archival images, First Flight Around the World is a captivating tale
about American ingenuity, gumption, and perseverance.
The Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington,

When Triss wakes up after an accident, she knows something
is very wrong. She is insatiably hungry, her sister seems
scared of her, and her parents whisper behind closed doors. She
looks through her diary to try to remember, but the pages have been
ripped out. Soon Triss discovers that what happened to her is more
strange and terrible than she could ever have imagined, and that she
is quite literally not herself. In a quest to find the truth she must travel
into the terrifying underbelly of the city to meet a twisted architect
who has dark designs on her family—before it’s too late . . .
Set in England after World War I, this is a brilliantly creepy but
ultimately loving story of the relationship between two sisters who have
to band together against a world where nothing is as it seems.

Madame Sonia Delaunay is a pop-up book inspired by the
work of 20th-century painter and theater, textile, and fashion
designer Sonia Delaunay (1885–1979), who was known for her vivid use
of color and bold, abstract patterns. Renowned art director and paper
engineer Gérard Lo Monaco has created this clever book, published to
coincide with a major international exhibition of Delaunay’s work, featur-
ing pop-up illustrations based on her paintings, textiles, and costume
designs. Lo Monaco’s highly expressive gouache illustrations convey
the same energy and verve as Delaunay’s original artworks, which are
reproduced at the back of the book. Fun rhyming verses accompany
each pop-up, offering children a way of looking at the images.
Sonia Delaunay’s work has been the subject of many books and
exhibitions, most recently Color Moves: Art and Fashion by Sonia
Delaunay, at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum in New York
in 2011. Gérard Lo Monaco is an Argentinian illustrator, art director,
and paper engineer based in Paris.
