With a sturdy cover and rounded corners, they are perfect to be carried everywhere! Renowned Austrian artist Gustav Klimt is well known for his richly decorative commissioned artwork and murals, but he also produced a number of beautiful landscape paintings that are unique masterpieces in their own right. The Viennese artist would often experiment new techniques in these landscapes, and much of the sumptuous patterning and vibrancy of his more famous work can be traced in his landscapes too.

Gustav Klimt: Landscapes Set of 3 Standard Notebooks

Edited with text by Megan Fontanella. Foreword by Mariët Westermann. Text by Victoria Horrocks, Isabelle Jansen, Iris Müller-Westermann, Dorothy Price. A new look at a vanguard modernist artist who reimagined the still life, landscape and portrait genres This landmark publication coincides with the major Guggenheim New York exhibition of works by the remarkable German Expressionist Gabriele Münter. Münter’s painting practice between 1908 and 1920 is the central focus of the exhibition and accompanying book. The study also illuminates her lesser-known later work and includes significant examples of her photography taken during earlier extensive travels in the United States. Münter was notably a cofounder of Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), a loose and transnational confederation of progressive artists and other creatives, with whom she probed the expressive potential of color and the symbolic resonance of forms. Her introspective portraits during World War II capture the “new woman” and explore questions of gender identity. Highlighting more than 90 paintings, drawings and photographs, this publication not only traces Münter’s pioneering and understudied practice but also challenges accepted historical narratives that have tended to sideline women artists. Reproductions of archival material appear alongside choice selections of the artist's sketches, prints and reverse glass paintings. Thematic texts by renowned scholars explore identity, place, belonging and the embodied experience of modernist women artists during this period. Gabriele Münter (1877–1962) was at the forefront of the German avant-garde in the early 20th century and exhibited extensively at galleries and salons throughout Europe during her lifetime. Along with her artistic colleague and one-time partner, Vasily Kandinsky, Münter was a founder of the influential Expressionist group of artists, Der Blaue Reiter.

Gabriele Münter: Contours of a World

Von Gloria Köpnick und Rainer Stamm Der Blaue Reiter zählt bis heute zu den bedeutendsten Strömungen der europäischen Malerei im frühen 20. Jahrhundert. Geprägt wurde er von den Künstlerpaaren Gabriele Münter und Wassily Kandinsky sowie Marianne von Werefkin und Alexej Jawlensky. Das südlich von München im Alpenvorland gelegene Murnau gehörte ab 1908 für sie zu den wichtigsten Schaffensorten. Komposition und Bildaufbau, Farbwahl und Pinselduktus: Murnau brachte für die Maler einen entscheidenden Schritt in ihrer künstlerischen Entwicklung. 1909 reisten Münter und Kandinsky erneut nach Murnau und erwarben dort ein Haus, das sich, ebenso wie die umgebende Landschaft, in zahllosen Bildern wiederfindet. Hier lebten Kandinsky und Münter mit Unterbrechungen bis 1914. In den Jahren von 1910 bis zum Ersten Weltkrieg vollzog sich, maßgeblich von Kandinsky und Münter initiiert, die Gründung der Neuen Künstlervereinigung München und, ab 1912, die Formierung des Künstlerkreises um die Redaktion des Almanachs Der Blaue Reiter. Der Band zeichnet anhand ausgewählter Meisterwerke und prägnanter Motive den Aufbruch in das Abenteuer der Moderne in Murnau nach. Ein fundiertes Nachwort der Herausgeber rundet den Band ab.

By Elisabeth de WaalPreface by Edmund de Waal Unpublished during Elisabeth de Waal's lifetime, The Exiles Return is set in Occupied Vienna in 1954-5. It describes five people who grew up there before the war and have come back to see if they can re-establish the life they have lost. As Edmund de Waal writes in his Preface about his grandmother's highly autobiographical novel, she "was Viennese and this is a novel about being Viennese. As such, it is a novel about exile and about return, about the push and pull of love, anger and despair about a place which is part of your identity." With immaculate precision and sensitivity, de Waal, an exile herself, captures a city rebuilding and relearning its identity, and the people who have to do the same. Mesmerizing and tragic, de Waal has written a masterpiece of European literature, an artifact revealing a moment in our history, clear as a snapshot, but timeless as well.

The Exiles Return

By Sally CarsonPreface by Laura Freeman Crooked Cross describes, through the eyes of one ordinary family, the Nazis’ growth in power between December 1932 and August 1933. It is extraordinarily prescient, anticipating all the horrors they were about to inflict on the world, and in this respect it joins a small group of novels, PB no. 39 Manja and PB no. 136 The Oppermanns among them, which were written to try to alert the world to what was happening. The main focus of the novel is on disaffected German youth: it shows with great subtlety that by the early 1930s there was huge unemployment, and a corresponding feeling of futility, and that what the Nazis did so skillfully was to provide a sense of purpose. Crooked Cross is an incisive account on why some young men who feel disaffected, lost or ignored turn towards authoritarian governments.

Crooked Cross

By Franz KafkaTranslated by Edwin Muir and Willa Muir Trapped in a bureaucratic quagmire, K., a land surveyor, struggles to gain access to the mysterious, impenetrable Castle, a symbol of unassailable authority. His attempts are met with inexplicable delays, administrative hurdles, and a pervasive sense of alienation. Franz Kafka infuses his narrative with existential dread, crafting a story that is both exasperating and amusing yet deeply human. It’s a tale of the individual’s struggle against the overwhelming forces of bureaucracy, power, and the quest for identity in a world that often seems indifferent. Well into the twenty-first century, Kafka’s tale resonates with anyone who has ever felt unheard or lost in a maze of red tape. Published posthumously in 1926, The Castle was first translated into English in 1930 by Edwin and Willa Muir. Although incomplete because of Kafka’s untimely death in 1924, the novel remains a seminal work. Despite Kafka’s instruction to his close friend Max Brod to destroy all unpublished manuscripts after his death, The Castle was preserved and published. The novel stands alongside Kafka’s “The Metamorphosis” and The Trial as one of the twentieth century’s most significant and existentially profound absurdist literary contributions.

By Walter Benjamin Translated by Shierry Weber Nicholsen An elegant new translation of Benjamin’s moving evocation of the experiences of his urban childhood Composed in exile in the 1930s and pub­lished as a whole only after his death, the miniatures that make up Benjamin’s Berlin Childhood are crystallized images of child­hood experienced in a city later surrendered to fascism. No ordinary autobiography, the book is a Proustian experiment in memory and a meditative tour of the iconic spaces of a city irretrievably lost to the adult. Instead of details of family and friends, these minia­tures evoke the sensory richness of childhood in images of the squares and courtyards, the parks and monuments of Berlin, the child’s schoolbooks and the gloomy flats of elderly relatives. As Benjamin’s friend Theodor Adorno writes in his afterword, ‘the images the book brings up into a disturbing prox­imity are not idyllic and not contemplative. The shadow of Hitler’s Reich falls across them. Dreamlike, they unite that horror with something that has long existed.’ This new translation includes an introduc­tion by Antonia Hofstätter, highlighting the way this nearly century-old work resonates with contemporary readers and inspires hope by providing access to strata of experience not governed by instrumentality and domination.

By Gabriele TergitTranslated by Sophie Duvernoy "A blend of page-turner and the highest literary quality." ―Der Tagesspiegel "Anyone who reads it will accompany the characters for many decades and take some of them very much to their hearts." ―Berliner Zeitung Three generations of German Jewish family undergo the tumult, upheaval, and brutality of nineteenth and twentieth-century history in this panoramic and skillfully nuanced family drama, rich with gossip and incident, capturing a Germany now lost to time. Gabriele Tergit’s Effingers is a novel, at once epic and intimate, about the lives and fates of three generations of a German Jewish family. Beginning in 1878 and ending in 1948, we follow the Effingers, a family of modest craftsmen from southern Germany, who are joined through marriage to two families of high-society financiers in Berlin, the Goldschmidts and the Oppners. The Effingers soon rise to prominence as one of the most important German industrialist families in Berlin, but with the outbreak of World War I, they fall on hard times and must navigate the tumultuous changes of the Weimar Republic. Full of parties and drama and delicious gossip, and featuring a kaleidoscopic cast of characters, Effingers is a keenly observed account of German Jewish life in all its richness and complexity. Tergit's precise and limpid prose dazzles in Sophie Duvernoy's elegant translation. Woefully underrated when it first appeared in 1951, and only recently rediscovered in Germany, Effingers is a meditation on identity and nationality that establishes Tergit as one of the most significant writers of the twentieth century.

By Adrian SudhalterWith essays by Mary E. Bauer, Joe Bucciero, Olaf Peters, and Melissa Venator An overview of the paintings, drawings, and prints of the New Objectivity painter Carl Grossberg, who depicted German industry between the wars. Carl Grossberg’s (1894–1940) painting career was bracketed by the two world wars. He drew his subject matter from “the enormous wealth of new forms in the world of technology,” recognizing both its potential and dangers. The publication examines the paintings, drawings, and prints of the German New Objectivity painter in the Merrill C. Berman Collection. Long associated with the German New Objectivity movement of the 1920s, Grossberg is revered for his precise paintings of industry, devoid of human figures but vibrant with color. His “Dream Pictures” envision industrial settings inhabited by unexpected creatures, such as monkeys, bats and birds, which act to destabilize the certainty of such materialized rationalism. This lavishly illustrated book takes an unprecedented object-based approach and focuses on the reception of the works during the artist’s lifetime. It highlights his Bauhaus training, his interrelated practices as a painter and interior designer, the centrality of commissions, and his relationship with the National Socialist regime after 1933. It is a robust study of Carl Grossberg’s work and life with a full scholarly armature including historical photographs, documents and publications.

By Paul Greenhalgh Leading expert Paul Greenhalgh presents a groundbreaking visual and scholarly journey through Art Nouveau – spanning 26 countries and enriched with stunning new photography. The Art Nouveau style dramatically impacted architecture, transforming attitudes to late-19th and early-20th century building practices, and making possible the rise of the various Modern Movements in architecture and design. Formed by the social and political environments of this turbulent period in European history, Art Nouveau was a complex, multifaceted phenomenon from its inception, changing shape continually through time and from country to country. This book unravels the various threads that constituted the style, offering fresh philosophical and aesthetic perspectives and providing a definition of what Art Nouveau actually was, and what it meant to its architects and designers. For the first time in a single volume, it shows the extraordinary spread of the style including in countries not usually recognized as being part of the story, with twenty-six countries represented through superb new photography. The author and photographer had privileged access to many famous buildings, as well as lesser-known architectural masterpieces. Uniquely, this book also considers the later heritage of Art Nouveau, and its long-term effects on subsequent architecture.

Art Nouveau: The Architecture of Modern Life

40 cards with 20 enchanting posters and graphic prints from the Vienna SecessionIn the first decade of the twentieth century, Vienna’s leading modernists and their students developed a bold graphic style that heralded a new age. Debuting their prints and posters in a periodical they called Die Fläche (German for The Surface), graphic artists of the Secession such as Kolomon Moser and Alfred Roller directed design away from older art nouveau forms and toward bold experiments with flat colors, elementary shapes, and expressive lettering. This set of 40 postcards features 20 favorites from Die Fläche, including famed placards for Vienna Secession art exhibitions, works by members of the Wiener Werkstätte arts and crafts collective, and prints from the 1908 Kunstschau, a landmark exhibition organized by Gustav Klimt. Humorous and ethereal designs mix with exquisitely abstract depictions of Vienna as a fashionable modern metropolis. Pioneering women artists such as Hilde Exner, Emma Schlangenhausen, and Valerie Petter-Zeis stand out among the list of contributors, reflecting their important roles in shaping visual culture in the city. As in Die Fläche, artwork by Koloman Moser, Alfred Roller, and other founders of the Secession appear side-by-side with pieces by unsung luminaries such as Max Benirschke and Anton Kling. With faithful reproductions printed on matte cardstock and presented in a handsome box adorned with metallic ink, Secession Style offers a unique collection of mailable artwork from a celebrated modern art movement, making it an attractive gift for lovers of art and design.

Oktober 1933 dem Freund Kagelmacher, "wird sie Uli vorgelesen, und es ist ihm sehr gut anzumerken, wie sie wirkt, was haftet, was verfehlt, was langweilt ..." Wie es sich für Märchen gehört, gibt es auch in diesen Geschichten die phantastischen Dinge, sprechende Tiere, Zauberer, Tarnkappen, Pechvögel, und hinter allen Turbulenzen eine handfeste Moral.

Geschichten aus der Murkelei

By Morten Høi Jensen “A nuanced portrait . . . thoughtful [and] perceptive.” —Kirkus Reviews “The Master of Contradictions is many things: a biography of Thomas Mann’s The Magic Mountain, a history of the Weimar Republic, and a story about one reader’s relationship to the most beguiling novel of the twentieth century. Morten Høi Jensen writes from a place of profound feeling and deep erudition. He is the perfect guide to the novel’s intricate, enchanted world; I did not want to stop exploring it with him.” —Merve Emre, contributing writer, New Yorker The arresting story of how Thomas Mann wrote The Magic Mountain as a defeated Germany descended into political chaos Like many writers of his generation, Thomas Mann (1875–1955) welcomed the outbreak of the First World War. He viewed it as a spiritual necessity, a chance to reassert German cultural dominance over Western ideas of democracy and enlightenment. Then, in 1924, he published The Magic Mountain, a massive novel that culminates in the slaughter of war and foreshadows the Nazi terror to come. One of the central achievements of modernism, The Magic Mountain bears testimony to its author’s dramatic political reorientation as a defender of democracy. This poignant book is a biography of Mann’s great novel—its evolution from a short story into a two-volume masterpiece and one of the bestselling novels of the Weimar era. Deftly weaving together elements of biography, history, and literary criticism, Morten Høi Jensen reveals how writing The Magic Mountain against a backdrop of world war, revolution, hyperinflation, and rising right-wing terror moved Mann to embrace the democratic and humanistic ideas he once scorned. One hundred years after The Magic Mountain was first published, at a time when democratic ideas are again under threat, Jensen reveals the universality and timeliness of Mann’s great novel—its still-resonant debates over democracy and tyranny, time and place, illness and death.

Herausgegeben von Anke Blümm, Elizabeth Otto, Patrick Rössler Bauhaus und Nationalsozialismus galten bis weit nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg als unvereinbare Gegensätze. Der Band versammelt neueste Erkenntnisse zum ambivalenten Schaffen Bauhausangehöriger nach 1933. Wir stehen mitten im Existenzkampf und haben höchstens ein Restchen alter Ideale in ganz, ganz persönliche Gebiete retten können, aber nie werden Sie erfahren, was die Bauhäusler in Prag, Paris und Berlin wirklich tun«, schrieb der frühere Bauhaus-Student Ernst Göhl 1935 an den langjährigen Direktor Walter Gropius. In 15 biografischen Studien verdeutlicht der Band anhand neuester Forschungsergebnisse, wie sich Bauhausangehörige, die nach 1933 in Deutschland verblieben waren, mit den neuen Machthabern im NS-Staat arrangierten. Von den Konflikten mit völkisch-nationalen Kräften während der Weimarer Republik ausgehend, zeigen Untersuchungen renommierter deutscher und internationaler Autorinnen und Autoren – u.a. zu Wassily Kandinsky und Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Else Mögelin und Wilhelm Wagenfeld – das breite Spektrum im Umgang mit dem verbrecherischen NS-Regime. Die seit über 30 Jahren erste umfassende Auseinandersetzung mit dem ambivalenten Verhältnis von Bauhaus und Nationalsozialismus wendet sich an Kunsthistorikerinnen und Kunsthistoriker mit Schwerpunkt auf der Geschichte der Moderne im 20. Jahrhundert, aber auch an alle, die sich für die vielfältigen Schicksale von Künstlerinnen und Künstlern in einer Diktatur interessieren.

This volume's essays question the euphoria of the time period with the knowledge of Bauhaus members' subsequent destinies.

The Jazz Age: A Twenties-Inspired Coloring Book

By Ulrich Alexander Boschwitz, translated by Philip Boehm A prophetic lost classic from interwar Germany, now translated into English for the first time, following a group of Berliners on the skids as their nation unravels. Berlin in the 1920s is the largest city in Europe, a cultural mecca, and a political mess: a hedonistic Babylon, though there’s little glamor for the hundreds of thousands out of work, the war wounded, the prostitutes, and the beggars. Come evening they too want to shed their cares at the Jolly Huntsman pub, where they gather to drink, dance, and reassert their pride. But there’s disaster lurking in the alleys and flophouses, a disaster that the twenty-two-year-old author Ulrich Alexander Boschwitz saw coming for his nation. In this dark comedy of petty theft, soapbox speeches, and bar fights is the disarray of a country devouring itself. Tragically, Germany’s self-destruction engulfed the author, who was killed five years after finishing this novel. When Boschwitz’s The Passenger was rediscovered in 2021, it was heralded as a masterpiece that captured the terror of the Nazi reign.

In 1919, Milena Jesensk , a clever and spirited twenty-three-year-old, is trapped in an unhappy marriage to literary critic Ernst Pollak.

Letters to Kafka

By Arnold Schoenberg "If it is art, it is not for all, and if it is for all, it is not art." In this sharp, uncompromising address, he defends the composer’s duty to the text: not to entertain, not to soothe, but to translate meaning with precision and depth. Music, he argues, must obey something higher than taste—something as exacting, and as rare, as truth itself. Arnold Schoenberg (1874–1951) was an Austrian composer, theorist, and painter who reshaped modern music from the ground up. As the inventor of the twelve-tone technique, he broke with tradition not for shock, but for necessity—seeking structure where tonality could no longer serve.

Tyranny of Style: Music and the World

By Sigmund Freud, translated by James Stratchey “It is in vain that an old man yearns for the love of a woman as he had it first from his mother." In some of the most densely packed pages that Freud ever wrote, the founder of psychoanalysis demonstrates through literary, mythical, and folktale examples the extraordinary way that wishes manifest themselves in people’s dreams and choices as inverted images. Magisterial and brilliant, this short essay also illuminates Freud’s own preoccupation with his daughter, Anna, at the time that he was writing it.

The Theme of the Three Caskets

Edited by Megan Brandow-FallerInformed by the analytical practices of the interdisciplinary 'material turn' and social historical studies of childhood, Childhood By Design: Toys and the Material Culture of Childhood offers new approaches to the material world of childhood and design culture for children. This volume situates toys and design culture for children within broader narratives on history, art, design and the decorative arts, where toy design has traditionally been viewed as an aberration from more serious pursuits. The essays included treat toys not merely as unproblematic reflections of socio-cultural constructions of childhood but consider how design culture actively shaped, commodified and materialized shifting discursive constellations surrounding childhood and children. Focusing on the new array of material objects designed in response to the modern 'invention' of childhood-what we might refer to as objects for a childhood by design-Childhood by Design explores dynamic tensions between theory and practice, discursive const– critically linking historical discourses of childhood with close study of material objects and design culture.Chronologically, the volume spans the 18th century, which witnessed the invention of the toy as an educational plaything and a proliferation of new material artifacts designed expressly for children's use; through the 19th-century expansion of factory-based methods of toy production facilitating accuracy in miniaturization and a new vocabulary of design objects coinciding with the recognition of childhood innocence and physical separation within the household; towards the intersection of early 20th-century child-centered pedagogy and modernist approaches to nursery and furniture design; through the changing consumption and sales practices of the postwar period marketing directly to children through television, film and other digital media; and into the present, where the line between the material culture of childhood and adulthood is increasingly blurred.Paperback352 pagesBloomsbury Visual Arts, 20199 x 6 inchesISBN 9781501358890Design History, Art Education

By Júlia SardàIllustrated by Júlia Sardà "With the second installment in her Three Sisters trilogy, Sardà has struck gold. Both narrative and aesthetic ooze style, coolly occupying the intersection between cautionary folktale and coming-of-age fantasy epic. . . . The result is singular, not merely a modern classic but one for the ages. . . . Utterly spellbinding." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Sardà’s intricate artwork reflects Carmela’s inner journey as much as her outer one, truly letting loose as Carmela gleefully unlocks her own free-spirited magic. A wild rumpus of sorts and a love letter to the outcasts, “the lonely, the lost, and the different ones”—and that is a beautiful, empowering thing."—Booklist (starred review) Gorgeous illustrations are the star of this fantastical adventure about hidden magic, growing up, and braving the unknown to find yourself. Everything is changing for Carmela. Her older sister, Franca, has new, mean friends, and Carmela is feeling lost and lonely. So she decides to go for a walk—to walk until she can’t anymore, then walk a bit more. Her walking takes her to a strange tower, and what she finds there will transform her life forever. In this companion to The Queen in the Cave, her authorial debut, renowned illustrator Júlia Sardà ventures into a mesmerizing world where mermaid grease washes away envy, a giant’s hair helps you face bullies, a circular library holds all your secrets, and a dome of crystal prisms opens a view to the cosmos. Dreamlike and filled with whimsy, the artist’s kaleidoscopic patterns, decorative borders, glowing colors, and layered, elaborately detailed imagery will bewitch young readers as readily as the title character does Carmela—and beckon them to return for many a visit.

By Franz WerfelTranslated by Geoffrey Dunlop and James Reidel “In every sense a true and thrilling novel....It tells a story which it is almost one’s duty as an intelligent human being to read. And one’s duty here becomes one's pleasure also.” —New York Times Book Review “For Armenians, it remains unique and precious...it’s the one work whose urgency and passion keeps the truth of their genocide before the eyes of a world that would prefer to forget about it. For Jewish readers, Werfel’s epic about the choice between submitting to the killers or dying on the barricade is still poignant. In several ghettos where the Nazis held Jewish populations before murdering them, The Forty Days of Musa Dagh was passed from hand to hand and became the inspiration—almost the manual—for the sacrificial ghetto risings that followed. Werfel wins an argument with the world’s indifference—and wins it crushingly.” —London Review of Books The heroic story of resistance during the Armenian genocide. When the Turkish government ordered the deportation of Armenians, several villages in the mountains chose not to obey. Instead, they fortified a plateau on the slopes of Musa Dagh and repelled Turkish soldiers and military police during the summer of 1915 while holding out hope that the warships of the Allies would save them. An international bestseller when first published in 1933, and the first novel in modern times to capture genocide by a state, Franz Werfel's masterpiece brought the world's attention to this devastating crime against humanity and the Armenian people.
