Jeff Wall
Jeff Wall: Transit accompanies an exhibition of 26 unique works of this Canadian artist. Jeff Wall made a name for himself with a special invention: light boxes with huge color transparencies of carefully calculated photographic images oscillating between painterly compositions and straight photography. His conceptual work brought him a special position in the art world and his images that also serve as lit objects made him famous during the last three decades. The book accompanies an exhibition at Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden. It includes texts by art historians Ulrich Bischoff, Mathias Wagner, Thomas Weski, and Laszlo Glozer.

Botticelli
Florence's golden child: The Early Renaissance master During Sandro Botticelli's lifetime (1444/45-1510), the influence of his art scarcely reached beyond his native Florence, and following his death he was soon forgotten, to be rediscovered only in the 19th century by the Pre-Raphaelites. Since then, Botticelli has ranked among the greatest of the Renaissance artists. In the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, paintings such as"Primavera" and "The Birth of Venus" are among the foremost attractions for tourists and art lovers. Botticelli's captivating figures of women, his intimate portrayals of the Madonna and Child, and the angelic beauty of his adolescents are famous the world over today. The artist's life and work are explored in this thoughtful and beautifully illustrated study.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 colour illustrations with explanatory captions

Max Ernst
Max Ernst, the great Surrealist artist, produced a body of graphic work that surpassed that of any other artist associated with Surrealism. His innovative printing techniques were the equivalent of the semi-automatic image-making procedures used by the painters and poets of his day, and his collaboration with the literary founders of Dada and Surrealism resulted in some of the most beautiful and evocative books of our time. In honor of the donation by Ernst's widow, Dorothea Tanning, of 150 of Ernst's etchings and lithographs--including the magnificent Maximiliana--The New York Public Library has mounted a major retrospective of his works. More than 200 books, prints, collages, and drawings,...
