Few artists have been so directly invoved in the events of their time as Gustave Courbert. Amid the social transformations of the mid-19th century, Courberts unconventional and stark paintings came to embody values with radical political implications. Rebuffed by the Parisian art world and attacked as a Realist, he seized upon that name to assert his sympathy for ordinary citizens and their down-to-earth experience. Coubert painted subjects from the world around him: from rural labourersand family gatherings to sensuous landscapes, hunting scenes, still lifes, portraits and erotic nudes. James Rubin addresses the full range of Courbet's work and combines a close reading of the paintings with a discussion of the personal, political, economic and social circumstances in which they were created.

Richard Meier

Richard Meier (b.1934) is one of America's most distinguished architects and the winner in 1984 of the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize. This detailed monograph is a comprehensive study of his work from 1965-2002 and covers 90 of his buildings including his best-known Getty Center in Los Angeles and the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art. The book documents all stages of Meier's career including his early private homes in the 60s and his work in the early 1970s when he came to prominence as one of the New York Five, whose new interpretation of the modern tradition shaped an alternative to the high-rise East Coast buildings of the time. The monograph continues with Meier's more recent larger-scale projects in both American and Europe. These include the Sandra Day O'Connor United States Courthouse in Phoenix, Arizona (2000), Perry Street Condominiums in New York (2002) and the Jubilee Church in Rome, Italy (2004), with its distinctive curved form. Several essays by Meier provide an insight into the architect's approach to designing buildings including his preference for the use of white, which he feels enhances one's perception of the basic architectural elements. An introductory essay by the influential critic Kenneth Frampton discusses Meier's architecture and its tectonic, painterly exuberance. A detailed chronology and bibliography complete this generously-illustrated record of Richard Meier's career.

The 20th Century Art Book was hailed upon its release as an exciting celebration of the myriad forms assumed by art over the last century. Complementing the phenomenally successful Art Book, and most recently The American Art Book, it presents a new and original way of bringing art alive. This new mini edition has all the visual energy and compelling insights of the original but in a light and highly portable format, making it ideal both for dipping into and for using as a serious sourcebook. Covering the truly international nature of the modern art scene, it encompasses established, iconic works of art and the classics of the future. 500 artists are placed in alphabetical order, each represented by a full-page colour plate of a definitive work and an incisive text which sheds light on both image and creator. This book is above all easy to use: cross-references help the reader make connections between artists; there is a jargon-free glossary of artistic terms and movements; and an international directory of museums and galleries lists the works on view to the public. Ideal for those approaching the subject for the first time, it is a fun and unintimidating look at the ever-expanding boundaries of art.

Richard Prince

Richard Prince emerged in the 1980s as one of America's new, highly innovative artists who worked with the margins of American subcultures and visual debris. Highly idiosyncratic subject matter — such as one-line jokes, cartoons, cowboys (borrowed from the Marlboro ads) and motorcycle gangs — are central to his work. In the late 1970s Prince was working for the cutting services of Time Life publications in New York, and had access to thousands of cut-up magazines of which only the advertisements remained intact. He began to re-photograph the advertisements and compose his own pictures from this highly familiar, Pop imagery — updating Pop Art's homage to consumerism and its icons in the 1960s. Recently Prince's work has taken an unexpected turn, and the artist has emerged as a consummate painter, producing some of the most unusual and admired works in the current painting scene. Prince is one of America's best-known artists internationally, and in 1992 was honoured with a one-person retrospective at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. Other museums which have held solo shows of Prince's work include the Museum Boymans-van Beuningen, Rotterdam; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Kunsthalle Dusseldorf; IVAM, Valencia; and the Haus der Kunst, Munich, among many others.

The Architecture in Detail series comprises books that focus on individual buildings noted for their exceptional character, innovative design or technical virtuosity. Each volume contains a text by a respected author, a sequence of colour and black-and-white photographs and a set of technical drawings and working details. The Dessau Bauhaus encapsulates the ethos of that design school's revolutionary new thinking. With its interlocking cubic forms, reinforced concrete frame and glass curtain walls, it was the first large building to crystallize the Modern Movement's conception of form and space.
