These six extraordinary women shared Pablo Picasso’s life and were instrumental in his career, yet they have long been dismissed as simply passive models or muses.Hidden Portraits reveals that their lives were - without exception - remarkable. All six were unconventional, independent and talented. All six were tested, both by Picasso’s subterfuges and betrayals, and the wider social turbulence they lived through. The extent to which each influenced Picasso’s art in major new directions has never been fully acknowledged.Sue Roe delves deeply into the truth of the women’s experiences for the first time, to tell the story of Picasso’s women from their point of view. Her enthralling book spans seventy years, from Bohemian early twentieth century Montmartre to the glittering Riviera in the 1920s, through Paris under Nazi occupation and beyond Picasso’s final years of seclusion.The result is a riveting, ...

Když mladý Pablo Picasso dorazil roku 1900 poprvé do Paříže, nejprogresivnější mladí umělci žili a tvořili v bohémské čtvrti Montmartre na kopci pod starými větrnými mlýny. V následujícím desetiletí, mezi ateliéry, salony, kavárnami, tanečními sály a galeriemi Montmartru, se mladý Španěl připojil k osobnostem jako Henri Matisse, André Derain, Maurice de Vlaminck, Georges Braque a mnoha dalším, aby společně zcela proměnili podobu tehdejšího uměleckého světa.Sue Roe mistrně spojuje precizní historický výzkum s poutavým vyprávěním a vytváří jedinečný portrét mužů a žen, kteří zásadně ovlivnili vývoj malířství, sochařství, tance, hudby, literatury i módy. Popisuje počátky hnutí jako fauvismus, kubismus a futurismus a odhaluje příběhy, které stojí za nesmrtelnými díly Picassa a Matisse. Ukazuje, jak každodenní život na Montmartru – kde se umělci setkávali s akrobaty, tanečnicemi, prostitutkami i klauny – vytvářel živnou půdu pro umělecké experimenty a dával vzniknout přátelstvím i sporům, z nichž vzešla některá z nejzásadnějších děl 20. století.Kniha Modernisté – jejich fascinující životy nabízí strhující pohled na výjimečnou skupinu umělců na prahu slávy a nesmrtelnosti a oživuje jedno z klíčových období v dějinách moderního umění. V nakladatelství již vyšla první část nazvaná Impresionisté – jejich životní příběhy a od autorky dále vyjde román Surrealisté – jejich bouřlivé osudy, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

''Heady, lively, engaging...brings Montmartre''s heyday back to life'' Sunday Times''Brilliant'' GuardianThe real revolution in the arts first took place not, as is commonly supposed, in the 1920s to the accompaniment of the Charleston, black jazz and mint juleps, but more quietly and intimately, in the shadow of the windmills - artificial and real - and in the cafés and cabarets of Montmartre during the first decade of the century. The cross-fertilization of painting, writing, music and dance produced a panorama of activity characterized by the early works of Picasso, Braque, Matisse, Derain, Vlaminck and Modigliani, the appearance of the Ballet Russe and the salons of Gertrude Stein.In Montmartre is the fascinating story of the birth of Modernism in Paris. Full of life, colour and squalour, and incredible painting and sculpture, Sue Roe vividly brings to life the bohemian Parisian art scene between 1900-1910.

''Supercharged. Highly colourful . . . they''re all here, the big names of the time - behaving badly, and, at times, quite madly too'' ObserverDuring the 1920s, in the Parisian neighbourhood of Montparnasse, a unique flowering of avant-garde artistic creativity became the cradle of Dada and Surrealism. In this crowd biography, Sue Roe tells the story - from Duchamp to Dali, via Man Ray and Max Ernst - of the salons and cafes, alliances and feuds, love affairs and scandals, successes and suicides of one of the most important and long-lasting artistic achievements of the twentieth century.''Describes with plenty of colour how surrealism, from Rene Magritte''s bowler hats to Salvador Dali''s watches, was born and developed'' The Times''Brings together some of the chief protagonists in one of the 20th century''s most inventive art movements.

Manet, Monet, Pissarro, Cézanne, Renoir, Degas, Sisley, Berthe Morisot and Mary Cassatt. Though they were often ridiculed or ignored by their contemporaries, astonishing sums are paid today for the works of these artists. Their dazzling pictures are familiar - but how well does the world know the Impressionists as people? In a vivid and moving narrative, biographer Sue Roe shows the Impressionists in the studios of Paris, rural lanes of Montmartre and rowdy riverside bars as Paris underwent Baron Haussman''s spectacular transformation.For over twenty years they lived and worked together as a group, struggling to rebuild their lives after the Franco-Prussian war and supporting one another through shocked public reactions to unfamiliar canvasses depicting laundresses, dancers, spring blossom and boating scenes. This intimate, colourful, superbly researched account takes us into their homes as well as their studios and describes their unconventional, volatile and precarious lives, as well as the stories behind their paintings.

Manet, Monet, Pissarro, Cézanne, Renoir, Degas, Sisley, Berthe Morisot a Mary Cassatt – dnes jsou tato jména legendami a jejich obrazy patří k nejdražším na světě. Ale za těmito oslnivými plátny se skrývaly životy plné skandálů, bojů a vášně. Byli to rebelové, kteří šokovali veřejnost svými malbami pradlen, tanečnic a jarních zahrad. Tvořili v době, kdy Paříž procházela velkolepou přestavbou pod vedením barona Haussmanna, a sami prožívali proměny stejně dramatické jako jejich umění.Sue Roe nás zavádí do ateliérů, kaváren a nočních barů, kde se rodila revoluce v umění i v osobním životě. Přátelství se mísilo se soupeřením, vášně s tragédiemi a úspěchy s naprostým odmítnutím. Po prusko-francouzské válce se snažili znovu postavit na nohy, drželi při sobě, hádali se, smáli i trpěli.Tento fascinující, intimní příběh odhaluje impresionisty nejen jako génie se štětcem v ruce, ale i jako milence, odpadlíky, vizionáře – a hříšníky, kteří změnili dějiny umění.Vychází v překladu Bohumily Kučerové.

With this volume, Roe v. Dobbs: The Past, Present and Future of a Constitutional Right of Abortion, we confront the remarkable beginning and end--once again, after a half-century-of the landmark Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, shockingly overruled by the Court in Dobbs v. Jackson Women''s Health Organization. The goal of this book is to bring together some of our nation''s leading constitutional scholars, historians, philosophers, and medical experts to share their views on whether there should be a constitutional right to abortion and what the consequences of Dobbs might be.What makes this subject unique is how it intersects with our own lives, since both Bollinger and Stone were law clerks at the Supreme Court in the year that Roe was decided (1973)--Stone for Justice William Brennan and Bollinger for Chief Justice Warren Burger. During the Court''s 1972 Term, when Roe was decided, the Court was in a state of flux. President Nixon had just appointed four Justices to the Court--Burger, Blackmun, Powell, and Rehnquist. The era of the Warren Court was clearly over. In those days, the Justices were non-partisan, often joined opinions across the political/ideological spectrum, and approached cases with an open mind.

This gripping book full of unique photos was published jointly by the author and Czech Publishing House Lesnická práce in Kostelec nad Černými lesy in 2009. Author´s profound knowledge and original approach make the book an outstanding achievement beyond any traditional literature dealing with roe deer. It intends to give comprehensive information on roe deer biology and ethology, and primarily to root out myths and dogmas that have been passed on from one generation of hunters to another. Besides bringing the latest information on roe deer biology, it also shows trickiness and pitfall often lying in wait for and wrongly affecting hunters in their daily activities. It focuses on the most frequently discussed topical issues of hunting. Besides other interesting topics the book also deals with the phenomenon of antlers (aiming at explaining how the complex vascular and nerve systems affect the growth of antlers - from growing through mineralisation until casting). Its value also lies, among others, in an extensive chapter on abnormalities in roe deer antlers and reasons for them. In 2010 the book was awarded Czech-Moravian Hunting Association Prize in the field of professional literature.

Women today are more equal than at any other time in American history. The #MeToo movement has transformed American workplaces. Christian power is weakening as the US grows increasingly secular. Democrats currently control Washington. And yet in this moment of growing equality and diminishing religiosity, women have lost one of the cornerstone achievements of liberal politics: the right to access an abortion. It's easy to characterise abortion politics as a familiar, decades-long battle- evangelicals against feminists, Republican states versus Democratic states, grassroots fighting elites. That kind of political thinking misunderstands the current moment. Abortion is, of course, about a right to terminate a pregnancy. But it's also the stage where the United States works through some of its most fundamental cultural and moral debates.

With vibrant colors and imaginative backgrounds, Van Gogh''s affectionate renderings of an entire family underscore his love of portraitureVincent van Gogh once wrote, "What I’m most passionate about…is the portrait, the modern portrait." This passion flourished between 1888 and ’89 when, during his stay in Arles, in the South of France, the artist created a number of portraits of a neighboring family that had agreed to sit for him. The family included the local postman Joseph Roulin; his wife, Augustine; and their three children, Armand, Camille and Marcelle. Over the course of his year in Arles, the artist created an astonishing 26 painted portraits of the family members, both in groups and individually, as well as multiple drawings.Van Gogh’s tender relationship with the postman and his family and his groundbreaking portrayals of them are at the heart of this book, the first dedicated to the Roulin portraits. Drawing on letters from the artist, archival material, contemporary criticism and technical studies, The Roulin Family Portraits features insightful essays on Van Gogh’s practice, his beliefs about portraiture, his personal relationship with the Roulins and his admiration for his contemporaries as well as 17th-century Dutch portraitists.Vincent van Gogh (1853–90) began his painting career ...

This acclaimed survey, now in an updated format with a new foreword by Ahdaf Soueif, offers a richly illustrated account of the history and discovery of astonishing funerary portraits from Greco-Roman Egypt. These remarkable paintings take their name from a district of Roman Egypt, whose inhabitants in the first three centuries CE included Greeks, Egyptians, Romans, Syrians, Libyans, Nubians, and Jews. In the Egyptian tradition, they embalmed the bodies of their dead; but then placed a painted portrait over the mummified person, preserving the memory of each individual. Over one thousand portraits have so far been discovered—men, women, and children of all ages. Including almost two hundred of these paintings, Euphrosyne Doxiadis''s informative text combines incisive scholarship with a compelling selection of images of enduring freshness and beauty.Doxiadis''s text sets the people and the paintings in their social, artistic, and geographical context, describing the techniques used and showing how the Fayum portraits relate to Byzantine icon painting, in a tradition that extends from ancient Greece to the Renaissance and on to the present day.
