Jean-François Rauzier
A fascinating monograph on the contemporary French photographer who utilizes digital technology to create highly detailed panoramas. This volume collects Rauzier's fantastical photographic compositions, which are comprised of thousands of high-resolution close-up views stitched together to create his own supernatural man-made world. As a fashion photographer in the 1970s, Rauzier longed to break free from the constraints of advertising and film photography. With his 'hyperphotos' he strove to capture "the panorama and the macro view all at once, to stop time and to have the possibility of viewing all the details of a static image". Rauzier carefully composes each work from elements and image...
The Art of Richard Eurich
This is the first book to present a comprehensive overview of the entire career of British artist Richard Eurich (1903-1992), a figurative painter of compelling power and often visionary intensity who brought rare imaginative reserves to his depiction of the world around him, as well as to his apprehension of the mysterious and unseen. Eurich was a private man, not given to self-promotion, and as such has not received the widespread attention he deserves.

British Women Artists
Consider for a moment the history of modern art in Britain; you may struggle to land on a narrative that features very many women. On this journey through a fascinating period of social change, artist Carolyn Trant fills in some of the gaps in traditional art histories. Introducing the lives and works of a rich network of neglected women artists, British Women Artists sets these alongside such renowned presences as Barbara Hepworth, Laura Knight and Winifred Nicholson. In an era of radical activism and great social and political change, women forged new relationships with art and its institutions. Such change was not without its challenges, and with acerbic wit Trant delves into the gendered make-up of the avant-garde, and the tyranny of artistic isms. In the decades after women won the vote in Britain, the fortunes of women artists were shaped by war, domesticity, continued oppressions and spirited resistance. Some succeeded in forging creative careers; others were thwarted by the odds stacked against them. Weaving devastating individual stories with playful critique, British Women Artists reveals this hidden history.
Selected Works
Scriabin was the precursor of many trends in 20th-century music-chord clusters, melodic fragmentation, serialism, and the psychedelic combination of sounds and colors now called "mixed media." In this compilation of 30 contrasting pieces, the editor has included notations on fingering, pedaling and phrasing.
Reverie
Maurice Hinson has provided an excellent edition of the famous Reverie, well-spaced and readable, with performance suggestions, footnotes, and historical information.
Pieces for Children
Selected from the two volumes of Bartóks For Children, these 42 works were written without octaves to fit the hands of younger players. Each piece has a descriptive title, with half including the words "song" or "dance". Like much of the composer's writing, the pieces directly reflect the use of folk idioms.
