The works of the Tiffany Studios revolutionized interior design in turn-of-the-century America. All of the company's works-from stained-glass windows to blown-glass vases; lamp shades to inkwells-bore the unique stamp of one man, Louis Comfort Tiffany, who created the Tiffany Studios and supervised every aspect of their production. Many of these official studio pieces are well known today-avidly sought by museums and collectors worldwide. Special ones among them, as well as other lesser known pieces-the "lost" works of Louis Tiffany himself-are, in a real sense, the core of his astonishing achievement. They comprise his personal oeuvre-the objects made from his original designs for exhibition, for private commissions, or for use in Tiffany's own homes. This book reevaluates Tiffany's art in terms of his personal work-including pieces in all the media that attracted him over the course of his prolific career; stained glass, of course, but also mosaics, blown glass, pottery, jewelry, and enamels. Tiffany's pioneering efforts in interior design are covered, as are his easel paintings and his dream of creating a permanent residential retreat for working artists. Hugh F. McKean also provides much intimate insight into Tiffany's personality, his domestic life, his financial dealings, and his unusual philosophy of art. Lavishly illustrated, the book presents a vivid display of Tiffany's wide-ranging aesthetic. The result is a rare portrait of Tiffany the man-and of the prodigious imagination that almost single-handedly transformed the day-to-day image of a nation and an era.

This volume presents the work of various artists that have visited the enchanted frozen island of Greenland and caught its charms. They have mostly been visiting or living here for a period in connection with their work or simply because they have been smitten by the lore of this alluring ice wonder. Many of the artists have been associated with Denmark, which has ruled Greenland for many centuries -actually getting a stake here via the Norse - Erik the Red in 953 AD - when Norway and Denmark became united in the Middle Ages. They had a great pasture farming and hunting society. Later, the Inuit came over from Siberia and invaded Greenland and wiped out the Norse settlements. Only with the Danish-Norwegian missionary Hans Egede in 1721 was appointed royal missionary to Greenland did the Danish king again get to actually rule this part of the kingdom. The Greenlanders of todays Greenland are a mix of Danish, Inuit and some other European blood. They are a hardy lot - it takes guts and perseverance to brave it out under these harsh and challenging conditions. We salute this proud people and hope you will approve of our selection of works.

Avenida de los Poblados, sin número es un proyecto de investigación artística interdisciplinar que explora la memoria del solar donde estaba ubicada la antigua cárcel de Carabanchel. Este espacio, particularmente denso en contenido, ha sido abordado por estratos, desentrañando sus multiples capas: Desde el subsuelo, que oculta un yacimiento romano apenas reconocido, hasta el cielo del solar o tejado de la prision, testigo de los motines protagonizados a finales de los años setenta por los presos sociales de la Coordinadora de Presos en Lucha (COPEL), pasando por la flora silvestre que ha crecido libremente sobre los escombros de este edificio de represion tras su demolicion en 2008. Para abordar la complejidad del terreno, el proyecto ha sido concebido como una colaboracion entre profesionales de distintos campos como la arqueologia, el activismo o el paisajismo. El resultado inicial de este trabajo se presento en 2022 como una exposicion de fotografia, escultura y dibujo, donde se materializo visualmente el proceso de investigacion. Ahora, este libro reune y amplia el material generado por la autora y sus colaboradoras, incorporando ademas documentos historicos de la COPEL, testimonios y registros que contribuyen a reconstruir los fragmentos de memoria del solar.
