Longtemps ignoré, le peintre géorgien Niko Pirosmani fait l'objet d'une rétrospective à la fondation Van Gogh à Arles au printemps 2019. Quasiment inconnu hors de son pays natal, il fut exposé aux côtés de Kazimir Malevitch et Marc Chagall lors de la célèbre exposition Mischen à Moscou en 1913, où il est alors décrit comme « le Rousseau de l'Est ». C'est finalement via ses réalisations pour la publicité que ses oeuvres vont se diffuser auprès du public avant que sa peinture soit reconnue comme l'une des contributions majeures à l'art naïf.

Monté à Paris en 1808, James Pradier remporte le fameux Grand Prix de Rome qui lui permet d'être pensionnaire de l'Académie de France à Rome durant cinq ans. Dès son retour à Paris, il mène une carrière brillante et bénéficie de commandes prestigieuses pour les Invalides, la place de la Concorde, l'Arc de triomphe, le palais du Luxembourg et la Chambre des députés. Pour sa ville natale, Pradier réalise plusieurs bustes de savants genevois ainsi que la célèbre statue de Jean-Jacques Rousseau, sur l'Ãéle. L'auteur de cet ouvrage a recensé quelque 500 sculptures de cet artiste virtuose, dont il détaille l'histoire et la fortune critique dans des notices illustrées. Le catalogue proprement dit est précédé d'une monographie qui permet de comprendre la carrière parisienne exemplaire de Pradier, révèle le quotidien de son atelier, ses relations avec les artistes et les écrivains de son temps, notamment Victor Hugo et Gustave Flaubert, documente sa recherche permanente de commandes publiques et les contacts étroits qu'il entretient avec les éditeurs de ses statuettes.

Hirmer, 2018
Few artists come close to the renown of Raphael--perhaps only his High Renaissance contemporaries Leonardo and Michelangelo--and the range of his artistic achievement, from painting to architecture, is staggering. This book focuses on his drawings and paintings, bringing together more than one hundred and fifty of his works, representing all his major projects in those forms and offering an overview of the various periods of his career, from his early years in Umbria through his move to Florence and on to Rome. In addition to full-color reproductions of Raphael's work, the book details his design methods, as well as his process of preparing canvas or panel paintings and frescoes and explores the widely varied materials he employed, including silverpoint, pen, ink, charcoal, and red chalk. The result will enchant any fan of this Renaissance genius.

Here is an updated and enlarged edition of the sumptuously produced book, first published in 2003, that reproduces in colour and tritone all the lithographs and etchings by the distinguished Portuguese artist Paula Rego from across her whole career. This edition has some sixty new works, including five new series produced in the last ten years. Critic and personal friend of the artist Tom Rosenthal writes in absorbing detail on the iconography of each print, drawing on his extensive conversations with Rego. There is also a new chapter on the influence of the work of Irish playwright Martin McDonagh on Rego, as well as an updated section of Works Out of Series and a new introduction based on an interview by the author with Rego on her 76th birthday. This book includes a complete catalogue raisonne in which all the prints are again reproduced but this time in chronological sequence with detailed descriptions. Printmaker and artist Paul Coldwell contributes an essay on Paula Rego's graphic techniques. The chronology, list of public collections, list of solo exhibitions and select bibliography have all been updated.
