Dantes Paolo und Francesca in der Kunst des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts
Dante Alighieris Liebespaar Paolo und Francesca ist heute nur Literaturbegeisterten überhaupt noch ein Begriff – geschweige denn Thema der bildenden Kunst. Im 19. Jahrhundert gehörte jedoch gerade diese Episode aus dem 5. Höllengesang der Göttlichen Komödie zu den beliebtesten Sujets der Epoche. Künstler von Füssli über Ingres und Delacroix bis hin zu Böcklin und Rodin haben sich mit dem Thema auseinandergesetzt; mit Gustave Dorés berühmten Divina-Commedia-Illustrationen erreichte die Dante-Begeisterung einen Höhepunkt: Das im Sturmwind der Hölle schwebende Liebespaar war zum pathosgeladenen Inbegriff der leidenschaftlichen Liebe schlechthin geworden.

Francis Bacon
Francis Bacon is given a piercing re-examination through critical commentary, brilliant reproductions, and private photographs in this beautifully produced flexi edition. The existential anxiety of modern man, the inescapability of death, and the catastrophe of loneliness are some of the themes that we revisited time and again in Francis Bacon's work. In this comprehensive study of one of the twentieth century's most passionately committed artists, Wieland Schmied offers a thoughtful overview of Bacon's life, analyses his paintings, and examines the creative processes they embody. He explores in depth Bacon's subtle use of space, the development of his imagery, idiosyncratic painting technique, and place in the pantheon of twentieth-century artists. The author was a close friend and confidante of the artist. This book includes many private photographs of Bacon in his studio. There is an increasing interest in Francis Bacon - exhibition just ended at The Scottish National Gallery of Art (September 2005).
Catalog of Catalogs: A Bibliography of Temporary Exhibition Catalogs Since 1876 that Contain Items of Judaica
Catalog of Catalogs provides a comprehensive index of nearly 2,300 publications documenting the exhibition of Judaica over the past 140 years. This vast corpus of material, ranging from simple leaflets to scholarly catalogs, contains textual and visual material as yet unmined for the study of Jewish art, religion, culture and history. Through highly-detailed, fully-indexed catalog entries, William Gross, Orly Tzion and Falk Wiesemann elucidate some 2,000 subjects, geographical locations and Judaica objects (ceremonial objects, illuminated manuscripts, printed books, synagogues, cemeteries et al.) addressed in these catalogs. Descriptions of the catalog's bibliographic components, contributors, exhibition history, and contents, all accessible through the volume's five indices, render this volume an unparalleled new resource for the study of Jewish Art, culture and history.

Sphinx
"In this readable, exhaustively researched account, author Peter Webb brings Leonor Fini's provocative art and unconventional personal life, as well as the vibrant avant-garde world in which she revolved, vividly to life." "In Sphinx, Peter Webb, who knew her well and interviewed her extensively in the years before her death, provides a long overdue analysis and reassessment of her work, particularly in its relationship to surrealism and feminism." --Book Jacket.
