Yokai: The Ancient Prints of Japanese Monsters
The long Pax Tokugawa was founded on the blood of 40,000 severed enemy heads. Indeed, 1600 marked the end of the period of wars that saw the defeat of the troops opposed to General Ieyasu Tokugawa.The absence of wars, banishing the memories and horrors of past massacres, favoured the development of epic tales that gave rise to dark and terrifying atmospheres, such as the game of the hundred candles, a test of courage in which a handful of warriors meet on a summer night to tell each other scary stories populated by monsters from the national tradition. So we have the Joro¯ gumo, comely women who reveal their true nature as enormous spiders to their victims; the Tanuki, endearing badgers able to transform themselves; the Bakeneko, monstrous cats; the Kappa, aquatic beings that pester women; the Ningyo, mermaids whose fragrant flesh can give men renewed youth or an excruciating death.
The macabre ritual of the hundred candles is the great idea behind this original project that presents 200 works from the 18th and 19th centuries, including prints, rare antique books, clothes, weapons, swords, a samurai suit of armour, as well as seventy-seven precious netsuke, small ivory sculptures, from the Bertocchi private collection and a ten-metre long scroll that tells the story of Shutendoji, a mythological creature (Oni) at the head of an army of monsters that haunted Mount Oe near Kyoto. Published on the occasion of the exhibition at the Villa Reale in Monza, the book is a real journey of discovery of Japanese imagery, ranging from Hokusai’s famous manga notebooks (alongside his other masterpieces) to the works of Loputyn, the contemporary illustrator well known to hotaku manga enthusiasts.

MAINTENANT 17: A Journal of Contemporary Dada Writing and Art
When a war ends provisionally, the agreement is called a ceasefire. But when peace ends, there is only war. War and peace are co-dependent. Perhaps it is now time for a “Peacefire.”
In Maintenant 17: A Journal of Contemporary Dada Writing and Art, nearly 250 artists from more than 40 countries explore the concept of the end of both war and peace, exploring provocative outsider ideas as dada has done since its inception. With searing cover art by Uta Kaxniashvili, this issue of the renowned journal elaborates on dada’s original premise as an antiwar movement.
The Maintenant series, established in 2008, explores themes of politics, humanity, philosophy, and current concerns from an antiwar, anarchic (and often eye-opening) perspective. Past issues include work by artists Mark Kostabi, Raymond Pettibon, Joel Hubaut, Heide Hatry, Avelino de Araujo, Pawel Kuczynski, Inas Al-Soqi, Giovanni Fontana, Nicole Eisenmann, Syporca Whandal, and Kazunori Murakami; past writers have included Gerard Malanga, Charles Plymell, Andrei Codrescu, Harry E. Northup, Malik Crumpler, Maw Shein Win, and more, with a strong contingent of artist-writers from the world of punk rock, including Thurston Moore, Mike Watt, Bibbe Hanson and more.
Critics have praised the series since its inception. Seattle Book Review calls Maintenant, “A smorgasbord for those who are sick and tired of it.” Tribe LA dubs the journal, “A compilation of leading Dada-influenced artists from around the world that is timely and relevant.” Serbia’s Madjan Magazine proclaims that the Maintenant series proves “Dada is not dead.” The Maintenant series is archived in leading institutions worldwide, including Museum of Modern Art New York.

Redstone Diary 2024: The Family Diary
Curated by novelist Julian Barnes, the celebrated cult diary explores the mysteries and complexities of family bonds
The 2024 Redstone Diary opens a window on that most enigmatic part of our everyday lives: the family. It has been an essential subject for artists, writers, singers, therapists and psychoanalysts. Tolstoy wrote: “All happy families resemble one another, but each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.” But was he right? Perhaps Dodie Smith got closer to the truth when she wrote that the family was an octopus “from whose tentacles we never quite escape, nor in our inmost hearts, ever quite wish to.” Together or alone, we cannot escape the family.
These bonds are explored in a marvelous array of texts selected by Julian Barnes, from writers including Willa Cather, Marcel Proust, Virginia Woolf and Philip Roth.
Images feature still captures from home movies; photographs of Depression-era group prayer; psychological tests; and artworks such as Paula Rego’s disturbing imagery of fatherhood, Frida Kahlo’s reimagining of her genealogy and John Lennon’s lyrics to his absent mother.Read more

La Pérégrination vers l’Ouest: Intégrale des estampes de l’édition japonaise de 1806-1837
Publié en Chine au XVIe siècle, La Pérégrination vers l’Ouest est l’un des romans les plus importants de toute la culture asiatique. Il relate le périple fantastique, à travers l’Asie centrale, d’un moine bouddhiste et de son escorte légendaire : un ogre des sables, un cochon anthropomorphe, un cheval-dragon et, volant sur son nuage avec son bâton magique, l’irrévérencieux Singe-Roi Son Goku, qui donne tout son sel à ce récit sans cesse repris et adapté au fil des siècles, jusqu’au célèbre Dragon Ball de Toriyama Akira. Entre 1806 et 1837, des libraires d’Osaka, au Japon, commandent ainsi 250 gravures, dont une dizaine en couleurs, pour une ambitieuse édition illustrée de l’oeuvre : monstres formidables, voyageurs égarés, combats titanesques… tout le génie des artistes de l’époque d’Edo s’expriment dans ces estampes virtuoses qui, si elles furent longtemps attribuées à Hokusai, sont en fait l’oeuvre de son plus fidèle disciple, Katsushika Taito, et deux autres imagiers talentueux, Ohara Toya et Utagawa Toyohiro. Après un travail considérable de recherche et de restauration, ce livre présente, pour la première fois depuis leur édition originale, l’intégralité de ces images exceptionnelles. Préfacé et commenté sous la direction de Christophe Marquet (EFEO), cet ensemble remarquable permet de découvrir toute la puissance narrative de l’estampe japonaise, terreau visuel du manga moderne.Read more

The Art of Print: From Hogarth to Hockney: Three Hundred Years of Printmaking
Prints have played a unique and important role in the history of art and image. This engaging book explores the numerous ways artists have embraced printmaking over the course of three centuries. Each of the works illustrated has been selected to reflect the broad spectrum of techniques and purposes, which are explained in clear and concise terms. The featured artworks are among the highlights of Tate’s extensive but little-known print collection, a remarkable grouping no book has previously attempted to survey. Among the leading artists for whom printmaking has been an important and experimental part of their practice are William Hogarth, George Stubbs, William Blake, J.M.W. Turner, Pablo Picasso, Barbara Hepworth, Andy Warhol, Lucian Freud, Bridget Riley, Paula Rego, William Kentridge and Kara Walker. Yet printmaking remains somewhat mysterious as a topic, perhaps because original prints are often understood as ‘reproductions’, or wrongly given a similar status to preparatory sketches and archival material. In fact, prints are finished artworks, often the result of highly considered creative experimentation with print processes. Chapters are structured around different types of printmaking, allowing each section to reveal the various ways artists have engaged with the different techniques. In addition to complete reproductions of over 120 works, carefully selected details enable the reader to examine closely some of the remarkable visual effects seen in the prints.Read more

Trailblazing Women Printmakers: Virginia Lee Burton Demetrios and the Folly Cove Designers
The history of the Folly Cove Designers (1941-1969) – one of America’s longest-running artist collectives – is explored through their work. Folly Cove Designers (officially 1941-1969) was a mostly all-women block printing collective.The group was founded by Caldecott-award winner and beloved children’s book author/illustrator Virginia Lee Burton Demetrios (of Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel fame). Together the Gloucester, MA-based group produced over three hundred distinct designs conveying personal and regional narratives through the use of shared design principles and the compelling language of pattern. The group was propelled to international fame through commercial contracts with major retailers (F. Schumacher, Lord & Taylor, etc.), articles in leading periodicals such as Life, and participation in seminal fine craft exhibitions.
As the first comprehensive history of the Folly Cove Designers, Trailblazing Women Printmakers documents and celebrates the group’s tremendous success and the incredible artistry of its members.

La Pérégrination vers l’Ouest: Intégrale des estampes de l’édition japonaise de 1806-1837
Publié en Chine au XVIe siècle, La Pérégrination vers l’Ouest est l’un des romans les plus importants de toute la culture asiatique. Il relate le périple fantastique, à travers l’Asie centrale, d’un moine bouddhiste et de son escorte légendaire : un ogre des sables, un cochon anthropomorphe, un cheval-dragon et, volant sur son nuage avec son bâton magique, l’irrévérencieux Singe-Roi Son Goku, qui donne tout son sel à ce récit sans cesse repris et adapté au fil des siècles, jusqu’au célèbre Dragon Ball de Toriyama Akira. Entre 1806 et 1837, des libraires d’Osaka, au Japon, commandent ainsi 250 gravures, dont une dizaine en couleurs, pour une ambitieuse édition illustrée de l’oeuvre : monstres formidables, voyageurs égarés, combats titanesques… tout le génie des artistes de l’époque d’Edo s’expriment dans ces estampes virtuoses qui, si elles furent longtemps attribuées à Hokusai, sont en fait l’oeuvre de son plus fidèle disciple, Katsushika Taito, et deux autres imagiers talentueux, Ohara Toya et Utagawa Toyohiro. Après un travail considérable de recherche et de restauration, ce livre présente, pour la première fois depuis leur édition originale, l’intégralité de ces images exceptionnelles. Préfacé et commenté sous la direction de Christophe Marquet (EFEO), cet ensemble remarquable permet de découvrir toute la puissance narrative de l’estampe japonaise, terreau visuel du manga moderne.Read more

The Art of Print: From Hogarth to Hockney: Three Hundred Years of Printmaking
Prints have played a unique and important role in the history of art and image. This engaging book explores the numerous ways artists have embraced printmaking over the course of three centuries. Each of the works illustrated has been selected to reflect the broad spectrum of techniques and purposes, which are explained in clear and concise terms. The featured artworks are among the highlights of Tate’s extensive but little-known print collection, a remarkable grouping no book has previously attempted to survey. Among the leading artists for whom printmaking has been an important and experimental part of their practice are William Hogarth, George Stubbs, William Blake, J.M.W. Turner, Pablo Picasso, Barbara Hepworth, Andy Warhol, Lucian Freud, Bridget Riley, Paula Rego, William Kentridge and Kara Walker. Yet printmaking remains somewhat mysterious as a topic, perhaps because original prints are often understood as ‘reproductions’, or wrongly given a similar status to preparatory sketches and archival material. In fact, prints are finished artworks, often the result of highly considered creative experimentation with print processes. Chapters are structured around different types of printmaking, allowing each section to reveal the various ways artists have engaged with the different techniques. In addition to complete reproductions of over 120 works, carefully selected details enable the reader to examine closely some of the remarkable visual effects seen in the prints.Read more

Lyonel Feininger/Alfred Kubin (German Edition): Eine Künstlerfreundschaft
“Of all of the contemporary draftsmen, I admire you the most,” wrote Alfred Kubin on November 25, 1912, in a letter to Lyonel Feininger. After the two had exchanged drawings with one another, they began an intense correspondence. Their letters are being published in this book for the first time, providing profound insight into the minds of Kubin and Feininger.Besides drawings by Feininger from Kubin’s estate, the volume presents an extraordinary selection of drawings and prints by the latter, whose body of work full of dismal symbolism has not lost any of its fascination. Beginning with early drawings by Kubin and commercial caricatures by Feininger, the exhibition traces the artistic paths of two men who corresponded as soul mates yet developed in very different directions: Kubin shifted his attention to the illustration of literary works, while Feininger discovered painting. Exhibition: Internationale Tage, Ingelheim, 24.5.–2.8.2015 | Albertina, Wien/Vienna, 4. 9.2015–10.1.2016Read more
