Frank Sinatra: A Life in Pictures	Anova Books
Автор: Dherbier Yann-Brice Издательство: Anova Books, 2011	PDF, 196 страниц, 5.88 МБ 0 Оценка:
A dandy, a crooner and an actor, talented and scandalous, as close to the Kennedys as to the underworld barons, Frank Sinatra fascinates. Coming from a small town in New Jersey, the bad boy married Ava Gardner and conquered Hollywood, starring in over 60 films and winning an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in 1953 for his role in From Here to Eternity. It's thanks to music, however, that his talent gained worldwide recognition. Nicknamed 'The Voice' by the international press, Sinatra imposed his unique style and sold over 150 million albums in his 62-year career. Sinatra can be seen as a monumental artist. His life is summed up in one of his first hits: 'Nothing but the Best'; he was always associated with the best composers, best musicians and best arrangers. In his personal life it was also the best vintage wine, the most beautiful women and all the extravagant luxury that accompanies a superstar (and some would say a bad boy's) life. Frank Sinatra, Life in Pictures recalls this exceptional journey through a captivating biography and rare and intimate photographs.

Coast to Coast Album Covers: Classic Record Art from New York to LA	Anova Books
Автор: Marsh Graham Издательство: Anova Books, 2011	PDF, 224 страницы, 6.72 МБ 0 Оценка:
Along with Blue Note records, the Prestige, Atlantic, Contemporary and Pacific and Riverside Labels were the chief providers of America's East and West Coast sounds on vinyl. The hard-edged, straight ahead playing of New York's jazz musicians was perfectly reflected in the moody, monochromatic photography, quirky graphics and bold typography of the record covers: the look, like the sound, was intelligent, disciplined and sophisticated. On the West, the bright colours and playful themes expressed the funky sounds of the US's cool, california cool. For the first time ever, Coast to Coast Album Covers brings the two together under one very cool roof.

Elizabeth Taylor: A Life in Pictures	Anova Books
Автор: Dherbier Yann-Brice Издательство: Anova Books, 2008	PDF, 192 страницы, 5.76 МБ 5 Оценка:
Elizabeth Taylor was one of the first great actresses to embrace the Hollywood lifestyle. Accomplished in her field and revered for her beauty, Liz's career firmly placed her in the limelight from an early age. Films such as National Velvet, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof paved the way for her to become the first actress to be paid $1 million for her infamous appearance with Richard Burton in Cleopatra. Elizabeth's off-screen life was as eventful as her on-screen one — the press fascination with her many marriages creating the kind of celebrity obsession we see today. In later life her involvement with charity work, especially her own AIDS charity has shown another side to this award winning actress. Life in Pictures documents the life and career of this beauty icon, showing many images of the woman, in private and public, which will be a delight to her many fans. A detailed biography accompanies the images. It features beautiful pictures taken by leading photographers — many never seen before. It chronicles Elizabeth Taylor's glamorous and varied life. It is a lavish addition to the Life in Pictures series.

Arthur Rackham	Anova Books
Автор: Hamilton James Издательство: Anova Books, 2010	PDF, 200 страниц, 6.00 МБ 8 Оценка:
In this fascinating book, art historian James Hamilton examines the work and life of the illustrator Arthur Rackham. Rackham's illustrations for works such as Rip Van Winkle, Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, Alice in Wonderland and A Midsummer Night's Dream have attained the classic status of the writings themselves — indeed, in some cases they have become synonymous with them. Rackham himself, however, has previously remained a shadowy figure. As well as featuring exquisite illustrations and sketches, extracts from Rackham's correspondence and insightful commentary from James Hamilton shed new light on this much collected illustrator.

Автор: Fogg Marnie Издательство: Anova Books, 2010	PDF, 208 страниц, 6.24 МБ 7 Оценка:
The world of fashion illustration has had a sensational renaissance in the last 5 years, but the art form goes back to the beginning of the 20th century and today's exponents are still benefiting from some of the styles, shapes and colours of fashion illustrators from decades ago. Whether they work with traditional pencils, crayons and watercolours or with a digital pen, fashion illustrators today will find inspiration from these 200 images. This volume collates the best fashion illustration that was captured in the pages of the iconic Harper's Bazaar magazine from the 1920s to 1970. The publication has been at the forefront of fashion since the 19th century and it is no surprise that it published the best work in this art form.

2000 Pattern Combinations	Anova Books
Автор: Callender Jane Издательство: Anova Books, 2011	PDF, 336 страниц, 10.08 МБ 0 Оценка:
This is a much-needed book on simple and more advanced ways of creating pattern with a source of 2000 colourful combinations that you can use for further creative work. The simplest pattern is a repeat of a motif. You can make that more interesting by creating a brickwork grid when repeating motifs. Make it different again by rotating the image, or by mirroring it. Taking the reader through various pattern developments thoroughly, it shows how one motif can lead to inexhaustible pattern interpretations. All these techniques are explained and illustrated, making the book an ideal way of learning about pattern design basics as well as finding an inspirational pattern. The author gives a range of different designs, from simple florals, motifs taken from historical treasures, tiling designs, abstracts — from a blob of colour to geometrics, pictorial motifs (from animals to buildings), and creates thousands of different patterns. This is a visually rich book that has application for any kind of designer, whether working on fabric, the web or the world of graphics.
