Published in conjunction with the second major exhibition The Museum of Modern Art is organizing for the Art Gallery of Western Australia, Perth, Van Gogh to Richter: People, Places and Things is an exploration of the myriad innovative ways modern artists have reinvented the traditional genres of portrait, still life and landscape from the 1880s to today. By looking closely at works in a range of media, the catalogue shows how these long-established categories have expanded and transformed from Post-Impressionism to Photorealism, reflecting changes in our conceptions of individuals, objects and spaces. The selection of works range from Frida Kahlo’s confident selfrepresentation to Gerhard Richter’s blurred likeness; from Paul Cézanne’s iconic tabletop arrangements to Jeff Koons’s commodified objects; from Vincent van Gogh’s roiling olive trees to Richard Long’s land art, each demonstrating how modernism’s radical new forms have continuously revitalized art history’s conventional subjects. An introductory text reflects on how these artists both inherit and reject the traditions of their adopted genres, and three essays provide close readings of a key portrait (Henri de Toulouse Lautrec’s La Goulue at the Moulin Rouge), still-life (Paul Cézanne’s Still Life with Ginger Jar, Sugar Bowl and Oranges), and landscape (Van Gogh’s The Olive Trees) from the dawn of modernism, and expand to consider subsequent works.

A fresh look at Vincent van Gogh’s iconic Sunflowers paintings, their context, and what they reveal about the artist and his creative process Vincent van Gogh’s (1853–1890) Sunflowers paintings are among the world’s most recognizable works of art. Central to his artistic ambition, these extraordinary still lifes provide insight into Van Gogh’s methods of production, artistic values, and exhibition strategies. Building on the 2019 technical study of the Sunflowers paintings undertaken by the Van Gogh Museum and the National Gallery, London, Van Gogh’s Sunflowers examines his two Sunflowers painting campaigns, places still life painting at the heart of the electric debates between Van Gogh and Paul Gauguin in the Yellow House in Arles in the summer of 1888, and considers how the artist intended the paintings to be displayed. Sumptuous images capturing the boldness and detail of the Sunflowers paintings illustrate three essays by leading curators. From Van Gogh’s insistence on painting from nature to his identification with the sunflower motif to his preferred display and framing strategies, this publication addresses myriad facets of Van Gogh’s artistic practice through the singular lens of his Sunflowers paintings.

With vibrant colors and imaginative backgrounds, Van Gogh's affectionate renderings of an entire family underscore his love of portraiture Vincent van Gogh once wrote, "What I’m most passionate about…is the portrait, the modern portrait." This passion flourished between 1888 and ’89 when, during his stay in Arles, in the South of France, the artist created a number of portraits of a neighboring family that had agreed to sit for him. The family included the local postman Joseph Roulin; his wife, Augustine; and their three children, Armand, Camille and Marcelle. Over the course of his year in Arles, the artist created an astonishing 26 painted portraits of the family members, both in groups and individually, as well as multiple drawings. Van Gogh’s tender relationship with the postman and his family and his groundbreaking portrayals of them are at the heart of this book, the first dedicated to the Roulin portraits. Drawing on letters from the artist, archival material, contemporary criticism and technical studies, The Roulin Family Portraits features insightful essays on Van Gogh’s practice, his beliefs about portraiture, his personal relationship with the Roulins and his admiration for his contemporaries as well as 17th-century Dutch portraitists. Vincent van Gogh (1853–90) began his painting career in his late twenties, influenced first by his work as a missionary in a mining region of Belgium, and later by his exposure to Impressionism while living in Paris. His bright signature style emerged after relocating to the South of France, where he produced more than 2,000 artworks in just over a decade.

A concise introduction to the fascinating life and ideas of the Van Ginkels and their architecture office. Travelling Ideas examines the exceptional work of Van Ginkel Associates, the office of husband and wife Sandy Van Ginkel and Blanche Lemco, whose significance in the development of Canadian architecture and planning can hardly be overestimated. With a multitude of international relations--including Team Ten, Hendrik Wijdeveld, Aldo van Eyck, Sven Markelius, Le Corbusier, and Louis Kahn--they connected the radical new ideas of avant-garde architects in Europe with the Canadian context, where modern architecture and planning were still in their infancy. Based on extensive research in the VGA Archive and interviews with Blanche Lemco and others, this book emphasizes not only built outcomes but also the couple's highly conceptual approach and lateral thinking. This is also a story of traveling ideas: how the Van Ginkels absorbed, developed, and mediated novel concepts and approaches and introduced them to a rapidly evolving, and urbanizing, Canada.
This third collection of poems by Shaun Traynor maintains his high standard of perfection in verse. It is an emotional narrative of love lost, love regained. It is a love story, but there are also poems of truly beautiful pastoral observations. The title poem shows the poet’s ability to be gritty when an urban landscape demands.
In 1947 and 1948, Van Johnson was MGM's top male box office draw. "On screen he was the Pied Piper; Elizabeth Taylor's lover, he was a war pilot with Spencer Tracy," writes his friend and decorator Carleton Varney in the introduction for Van Johnson's Hollywood: A Family Album. Along the way, his wife, Evie Wynn Johnson, an amateur shutterbug captured behind-the-scenes images of their friends some of Hollywood's most famous stars, such as Gary Cooper, Judy Garland, and Humphrey Bogart on the road, on the set, around the pool, and at their Hollywood home. She put together these casual and candid images in a family album that has never been published before. Their daughter, Schuyler adds her memories to this unique document of Hollywood's Golden Age.
In 1664, Jacobus Van Cortlandt bought the North Bronx, created a park and gave it his name.In 1973, over three-hundred years later, his park, still serene and predictable, still graced with the same ancient trees and acres of lawns, fields and bushes is now surrounded by the apartment buildings of Riverdale, Bronx, New York. Thousands now live across the street from the park, over, under and next to each other separated by some wood studs and drywall. On their side of the street, the brick and mortar side, life is far more complicated.A mysterious 65 year-old recluse lives in a drywall build-out in a basement but often spends the night sleeping on a blue tarp in a clearing in the park's bushes when the heat in the basement is oppressive. Something in his past makes life unbearable. Several men and women, leading separate lives, facing separate crises, drawn together by fate, attempt to rebuild their future, and this man will change all of their lives forever.

'Zijn gekreun vertelde me dat mijn broer Bill, tussen het gewicht van de tractor en de harde grond, net zijn leven had verloren.' Joseph z'n kindertijd eindigde op die dag. Emigratie had zijn gezin van een kaasboerderij in Nederland naar een gemengde boerderij in Zuid-Ontario gebracht. Joseph verwelkomde het leren van Engels en het aanpassen aan Canadese manieren, terwijl hij de Nederlandse familietradities waardeerde. Uitgedaagd als de jongste van een dozijn, werd Joseph gewond door Bill z'n pijnlijke, maar ook zorgzame, aanraking en door eenzaamheid als jonge tiener in het seminarie. Toen hij met pensioen ging, begon Joseph te genezen met een wandeling dwars door Europa, het genieten van zijn kleinkinderen en het schrijven van deze memoires.
In 2005, Rose Forcir unearths a cache of well-preserved letters written by her grandmother over one hundred years earlier. These letters resurrect a lingering suspicion of Rose's. Was her grandmother the friend, muse, and lover of Vincent van Gogh? Was the painting La Croqueuse du Jardin, which still graces the dining room wall of the family home, painted by this genius? In the spring of 1889, Emma du Jardin collapses after the sudden death of her baby, and her husband removes her from their comfortable home in Paris to the asylum of St. Paul de Mausole in far away Provence. During the months of her confinement, Emma writes frequently to her dear sister, Dominique, recalling her formerly happy life in Paris, wondering about the opening of the Exposition Universelle featuring the new Tour d'Eiffel, chronicling the lushness of Provence in the spring, and the describing the treatments for mental illness practiced at the time. Emma's letters further recount her struggle to regain her emotional balance, her attempts to puzzle out her husband's seeming indifference, and her life with the eccentric asylum residents. Most intriguingly, in bold, sensuous strokes Emma reveals the developing relationship between a fellow resident and painter named Vincent and herself. Her affair with the mysterious Vincent helps Emma gain the insight and courage she needs to pursue a new way of life upon leaving the asylum.
Van Gogh or the Dawn of It All is a darkly humorous dystopia. It is a parody, simultaneously, of the artistic world and the place of the artist in the world, when the creation no longer embraces the soul and the focal point becomes only for profit. ABOUT THE AUTHORS Petr Merka (1979) is a Czech writer who first released a collection of short stories Telekristus and Mental in 2007; followed by a fairy-tale-like attuned novel Fantasmagoria TV; a collection of short stories Hitler is smiling at you, published in Poland; a graphic novel Van Gogh of the 21st Century, published in Germany; and a collection of bizarre fairy-tale stories Vila Dita. A graphic novel Puberty and Emotions is currently being finalized for release. Petr's creative work is distinctive in a high dose of nonconformity, socially critical subtext, absurdity, and a slightly mystical overtone. Petr belongs to controversial authors who are breaking all literal taboos. David Marcin (1991) is a Slovak comic book artist and illustrator. In 2017, he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava. David published several short comic stories and illustrations in Slovakia, Czech Republic, and Japan. In collaboration with Petr Merka, he also illustrated the graphic novel Van Gogh of the 21st Century, published in Slovakia, Czech Republic, and Germany. Further, David has collaborated with publishers and clients such as SME, ZumZum Production, Standart Mag, BrAK, and others. David is co-creator of an alternative comic book almanac entitled POMIMO. He currently live and works in Bratislava.
