A Escola de Ulm: 1953-1968
Design para milhões de pessoas, prático, útil, funcional, econômico, bom! Há 70 anos, a Escola de Ulm iniciava sua trajetória rumo ao objetivo de reunir racionalidade técnica, beleza artística e finalidade social — sustentabilidade. Sua herança política, a partir da memória de Hans e Sophie Scholl, e artística, a partir da Bauhaus e da Arte Concreta, fazem dessa Escola um capítulo particular da história da arte e do desenho industrial, que perpassa o período da reconstrução da Alemanha Ocidental, do milagre econômico e, por fim, dos movimentos sociais e estudantis de 1968. Com 16 ensaios do autor e contribuições dos professores Nelson Aguilar e René Spitz, o livro A Es...

New Geographies of Abstract Art in Postwar Latin America
This edited volume examines the history of abstract art across Latin America after 1945. This form of art grew in popularity across the Americas in the postwar period, often serving to affirm a sense of being modern and the right of Latin America to assume the leading role Europe had played before World War II. Latin American artists practiced gestural and geometric abstraction, though the history of art has favored the latter. Recent scholarship, for instance, has focused on geometric abstraction from Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela. The book aims to expand the map and consider this phenomenon as it developed in neglected regions such as Central America and the Andes, investigatinghow this style came to stand in for Latin American contemporary art.

Imhotep Today
This book presents and analyses the results of the use and adaptation of ancient Egyptian architecture in modern times. It traces the use of ancient Egyptian motifs and constructions across the world, from Australia, the Americas and Southern Africa to Western Europe. It also inquires into the cultural, economic and social contexts of this practice. Imhotep Today is exceptional not only in its global coverage, but in its analyses of thorny questions such as: what was it about Ancient Egypt that inspired such Egyptianizing monuments, and was it just one idea, or several different ones which formed the basis of such activities? The book also asks why only certain images, such as obelisks and sphinxes, were incorporated within the movement. The contributors explore how these 'monuments' fitted into the local architecture of the time and, in this context, they investigate whether 'Egyptianizing architecture' is an ongoing movement and, if so, how it differs from earlier, similar activities.
Von der Berufung zum Beruf: Industriedesigner in Westdeutschland 1959-1990
Die Gründung des ersten Berufsverbandes der Industriedesigner in Stuttgart 1959 markierte den Beginn einer Professionalisierung der bundesdeutschen Produktgestaltung. Yves Vincent Grossmann zeigt in seiner Sozialgeschichte der Industriedesigner, wie sich die Gestalter gegenüber Fragen im Zuge der Ölpreiskrisen, Postmoderne und Globalisierung neu positionierten: Sie übernahmen zunehmend die Rolle eines Krisenmanagers - denn trotz des »Eisernen Vorhangs« blieben die Beziehungen auf der industriellen Ebene zwischen Ost und West erhalten. Mit der BASF AG, Siemens AG, Rosenthal AG und MAN AG werden vier Firmen beispielhaft betrachtet.

The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature
The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature is by far the most comprehensive work of its kind ever written. Its three volumes cover the whole sweep of Latin American literature (including Brazilian) from pre-Colombian times to the present, and contain chapters on Latin American writing in the USA. Volume 3 is devoted partly to the history of Brazilian literature, from the earliest writing through the colonial period and the Portuguese-language traditions of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; and partly also to an extensive bibliographical section in which annotated reading lists relating to the chapters in all three volumes of The Cambridge History of Latin American Literature are presented. These bibliographies are a unique feature of the History, further enhancing its immense value as a reference work.
