Made from single pieces of high quality 100% polyester fabric, Pleats Please clothing is innovative in its process: the clothes are first cut and sewn together from fabric that is nearly three times larger than the finished item of clothing, then sandwiched between sheets of paper and hand fed into a pleats machine. From tube dresses to cardigans, skirts, shirts, or elastic-waisted pants: the clothes emerge with permanent pleats. This industrial process allows both texture and form to be created at the same time. Vertical pleating is used to create different effects and architectural shapes. Pleats Please clothes are very functional and practical; they store easily, travel well, require no ironing, can be machine-washed, and dry within hours. Shapes are simple, and the colors and prints diverse (a set of basic colors is available each season, plus seasonal colors and prints). The clothes' simple beauty, comfort, lightness, and ease of care have changed the way many women all over the world dress.  For the first time, the story of this revolutionary line of clothing is being told.

On the centenary of his birth, this splendidly produced and designed book looks at every facet of his career, and traces the many strands of his lasting influence. Otl Aicher is most famously known for the pictographs he designed for the 1972 summer Olympic Games in Munich. Fifty years later, his system of iconography has become a universal language, directing people to bathrooms, through subways, around airports and hospitals. But Aicher’s achievements extended far beyond the world of graphic design. Filled with illustrations, photographs, documents and archival material, and enhanced by thoughtful and personal essays from leading critics, designers, and friends, this survey takes a disciplinary approach to explore Aicher’s role as one of the founding figures of visual communication. We learn about Aicher’s work developing corporate brands; how he created the Rotis typeface, then built architecture incorporating the font; how he collaborated with artists and architects such as Josef Albers, Alexander Kluge, and Norman Foster; and how his founding of the Ulm School of Design reflected his passion for teaching, and for an open, free, and democratic society. Aicher’s achievements are evident in nearly every public space on the globe and this definitive and timely reference work rightfully places Aicher among the pioneering geniuses of the past century.\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 248 x 295\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor: Nerdinger | Winfried | Vossenkuhl | Wilhelm\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN: 9783791379449\u003cbr\u003e\nFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 256\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"bookhero.ae","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46124536037529,"sku":"3RG9783791379449","price":60.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/5696\/6297\/files\/697cdda3c4c16_Otl_Aicher_Design_1922-1991.jpg?v=1769792739"},{"product_id":"the-art-of-splatoon","title":"The Art of Splatoon","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Art of Splatoon contient 320 pages d'incroyables illustrations 3D et 2D de vos personnages prfrs, des cartes, des concepts arts, les designs des armes et quipements, scnarios, croquis, bandes dessines... et bien plus encore.

Over eleven seasons and eighty-four episodes, Jerry Seinfeld drove around in classic cars, grabbing coffee and chatting with the funniest people alive. He reminisced with the late Garry Shandling; bantered with legends Steve Martin, Tina Fey, and Eddie Murphy; reunited with the cast of Seinfeld; and even paid a visit to President Barack Obama in the Oval Office. These and dozens of other guests talked about the intricacies of stand-up, the evolution of their careers and personal lives, and whatever else popped into their brilliant minds. The result was not only a hilarious collection of casual yet intimate conversations - a rare opportunity for viewers to witness their favourite performers unscripted and unvarnished - but arguably the most important historical archive about the art of comedy ever amassed.    Now that archive is preserved in the form of a gorgeously designed and carefully curated book. Seinfeld has hand-picked the show's keenest insights and funniest exchanges. Also included is a fascinating oral history featuring interviews with dozens of crew members, executives, guests, and Seinfeld himself that details how this scrappy creative experiment landed unprecedented access to the White House, earned multiple Emmy nominations, and helped lead the streaming revolution.

The hundreds of folk-art objects that filled her home and studio attest to her nationalist politics and her fascination with the work of carvers, weavers, sculptors of papier-mâché and vernacular painters.

Passé notions that once defined drawing as being a preparatory stage for painting or sculpture have long since been cast aside. Drawing is now fully recognized as its own art form—in the biennials, art fairs, museum exhibitions, and beyond. Drawing has come of age.            Contemporary artists are increasingly discovering that drawing is something unique and different from painting. It is an intense, sensitive, compelling, personal, and utterly direct art form, one with its own concepts, characteristics, and techniques. In addition, contemporary drawing is not governed by any particular imagery, but rather encompasses a variety of approaches, including realist, abstract, modernist, and post-modernist.            Contemporary Drawing delves into the essential and far-reaching concepts of this medium, exploring surface, mark, space, composition, scale, materials, and intentionality in turn. Key techniques, such as using nature to induce marks and working with a checklist to determine a drawing’s problems, are introduced throughout. Plus, an in-depth chapter examines a number of artists, such as William Kentridge and Gego, who are breaking traditional boundaries that separate one artistic discipline from another.Lushly illustrated by a wide range of highly accomplished contemporary artists, Contemporary Drawing offers a broad perspective on this expansive and energized field of art.\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 239 x 287\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor: Margaret Davidson\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN: 9780823033157\u003cbr\u003e\nFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 192\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"bookhero.ae","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46190606647449,"sku":"16RA-4-9780823033157","price":80.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/5696\/6297\/files\/699c32ed4989c_Contemporary_Drawing_Key_Concepts_and_Techniques.jpg?v=1771851545"},{"product_id":"poltrona-frau-intelligence-in-our-hands","title":"Poltrona Frau Intelligence in Our Hands","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe first major monograph on Poltrona Frau, Italy’s leading furniture designer and manufacturer, on the eve of its hundredth anniversary.

Using photography, video, painting, drawing, sculpture, sound, and text in turn, he is a virtuoso of forms and techniques. Rondinone particularly enjoys destabilizing the viewers? perceptions and unsettling their certainties by developing surprising sensorial environments. Rearranging content and formal elements through a personal poetic filter while drawing directly on the outside world, he envelops the audience in a synesthetic experience. 0The artist has developed very precise and repetitive series?clown sculptures and videos, target acrylic paintings on linen, rubber masks, aluminum face sculptures, oversized wax lightbulbs, striped paintings on polyester, stone sculptures, landscape ink painting, bronze still-life objects, video and sound installations?through which he explores themes of fantasy and desire, branching out in literature and poetry, contemporary cinema, and the visual arts. 0A new series of three publications extensively documents three of his most renowned series: the Landscapes paintings, the Stripe paintings, and the Target paintings. In the second volume dedicated to the Stripe paintings (1999?2011), artist and writer Phong Bui retraces the genealogy of stripe paintings from Barnett Newman to Rondinone, while art critic Bob Nickas thoroughly examines the making and meaning of painting in his work. He states:?While it is true that Rondinone has followed many paths over time, he has found ways for them to converge and align, to overlay abstraction and representation, reality and the unreal, artifice and the sublime. It has never been possible to predict where he will venture next with the products of his mind, and it remains so, as these stripe paintings metaphorically suggest: a sustained event-horizon or point of no return, where one can never apprehend the end of the line.?\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 244 x 315\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor: Phong Bui | Robert Nickas\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN: 9783037645062\u003cbr\u003e\nFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 229\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"bookhero.ae","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46190607728793,"sku":"16RA-4-9783037645062","price":80.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/5696\/6297\/files\/699c35782d315_Ugo_Rondinone_New_Horizon.jpg?v=1771851591"},{"product_id":"alkeme-the-art-of-brad-kunkle","title":"Alkeme The Art of Brad Kunkle","description":"\u003cp\u003eAfter selling out his debut solo exhibition in New York City on opening night in 2010, Brad Kunkle has become internationally known for his unique use of gold and silver leaf in contemporary oil painting.

Syd Shelton: Rock Against Racism is a body of photographs that Syd Shelton produced for and about the British Rock Against Racism movement (RAR) of 1976-1981. For Shelton, this work was a socialist act, what he calls a \"graphic argument,\" on behalf of marginalized lives. His practice of photographic activism began in 1973 when he was driven to document the socio cultural and political dynamics expressed on the streets of Sydney by urban Australian Aboriginal communities, the working class, and the architectural landscapes of these groups. Shelton's first solo show in 1975, \"Working Class Heroes\" at the Sydney Film-makers Cooperative, established his distinct activist eye. Shelton joined RAR in early 1977 on his return to England from Australia. He did so because he found his birthplace a more racist country than it had been when he left. This was marked by the increased political presence of the National Front, notably its gain of some 119,000 votes in the Greater London Council Elections of May 1977. Shelton, like millions of others, feared for the future of multi-cultural Britain. His contribution to RAR was to be on the London committee, to create graphic material with other RAR members such as the RAR publication \"Temporary Hoarding,\" posters' badges and his photography--RAR did not have an official photographer. Shelton's instinctive need to document RAR--its events, contributors, and supporters--has resulted in the largest collection of images on the movement. Alongside his documentation of RAR, Shelton took photographs of what he calls \"the contextual images,\" the lives and landscapes that were defined by others as \"different,\" and that often fueled racist acts of violence by simply being. What is presented here are Shelton's authoritative visual statements as participant-photographer on the social tempo in Britain at this time and the activist potency of RAR. As collective activism, RAR's success was dependent on individual contributions to fuel the movement's activities across the country. This unique national, and eventually international, charge incorporated the visual dynamic of how Black and white RAR contributors and participants styled their bodies as another antagonistic tool against racism. These were acts of style activism--the making of an activist identity through the considered composition of clothes, accessories, hairstyles, makeup, and body language. Shelton's images prompt us to remember that the individuals at RAR carnivals, gigs, and demonstrations were the event--they were RAR. There are many versions of what RAR was and its legacy. Syd Shelton: Rock Against Racism provides an auto\/biographical telling of that historical moment. It reflects on how Shelton's work as a photographer contributed towards social change at a critical moment of political and racial tension in Britain.\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 248 x 337\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor: Syd Shelton\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN: 9781644282496\u003cbr\u003e\nFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 187\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"bookhero.ae","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46194068848793,"sku":"EDU-3-C9781644282496","price":60.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/5696\/6297\/files\/699d324c2992d_Rock_Against_Racism_1976-1981.jpg?v=1771936152"},{"product_id":"black-futures","title":"Black Futures","description":"\u003cp\u003e“A literary experience unlike any I’ve had in recent memory . . . a blueprint for this moment and the next, for where Black folks have been and where they might be going.”—The New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice)What does it mean to be Black and alive right now?Kimberly Drew and Jenna Wortham have brought together this collection of work—images, photos, essays, memes, dialogues, recipes, tweets, poetry, and more—to tell the story of the radical, imaginative, provocative, and gorgeous world that Black creators are bringing forth today.

For decades the prominent image of a ballet dancer has been a white body with pale clothing. It took 75 years for American Ballet Theatre to have its first African American female principal dancer, Misty Copeland. When TaKiyah Wallace-McMillian went to enroll her three-year-old daughter into her first ballet class, she immediately saw this lack of diversity and representation--even on her local dance studio's website. Within weeks TaKiyah, a freelance photographer, began shooting a project she called Brown Girls Do Ballet, which eventually became an Instagram hit and a nonprofit organization that provides resources, mentorship, inspiration, and encouragement to young dancers of color worldwide.    For her first book, The Color of Dance, TaKiyah traveled around the United States seeking out dancers of African, Asian, East Indian, Hispanic, and Native American ancestry. With these more than 190 breathtaking images of colorful ballerinas of all ages and levels, both amateur and professional, TaKiyah gives a voice to dancers who have been underrepresented for too long.    With dozens of quotes throughout from ballerinas themselves, The Color of Dance redefines what this classically Eurocentric art form has looked like for centuries and will inspire dancers--and all of us--to pursue our dreams no matter what barriers are put in front of us.\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 225 x 264\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor: TaKiyah Wallace-McMillian\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN: 9780762479559\u003cbr\u003e\nFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 256\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"bookhero.ae","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46194156601497,"sku":"1RG9780762479559","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/5696\/6297\/files\/699c668cceedb_The_Color_of_Dance_A_Celebration_of_Diversity_and_Inclusion_in_the_World_of_Ballet.jpg?v=1771938193"},{"product_id":"the-impossible-collection-of-jewelry","title":"The Impossible Collection of Jewelry","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this magnificent collection of the most spectacular jewels of the twentieth century, fine jewelry historian Vivienne Becker selects the quintessential bijoux that represent the milestones of jewelry design of the last one hundred years.

But there's never been a book that tells its story - until now.  Led by founder and born rebel, Ian Anderson, The Designers Republic(tm) has shaped graphic communication over the past thirty years through rule-defying music work, provocative self-initiated projects and a fierce commitment to conceptual thinking over style. Now, for the first time in book form, Anderson explores the studio's output, and its influence on a generation of graphic designers.  AZTDR(tm) spans over three decades of work - from the studio's earliest designs for the FON label in the mid-1980s and sleeves for Age of Chance, Chakk and Cabaret Voltaire, right up to its recent projects for The Cinematic Orchestra, Led Bib and the Gulbenkian Foundation. Alongside classic self-initiated TDR(tm) projects, the 512-page book features an A to Z of everything from campaigns for Evolution Print, Coca-Cola and Nike, through to the studio's celebrated designs for video games such as Wipeout and Formula Fusion.  TDR(tm)'s special relationship with print is explored through its celebrated contributions to IDEA and Emigre magazines and its 3D\u0026gt;2D book, alongside its work for Manchester School of Art, Gatecrasher, NY Sushi and the studio's array of music clients. Here, TDR(tm)'s work with Autechre is examined via ten key releases, while the studio's involvement with Pop Will Eat Itself focuses on some twenty-eight different singles and albums. There are also expansive sections devoted to TDR(tm)'s designs for Aphex Twin, Moloko, Sun Electric and The Orb, alongside sleeve designs for R\u0026amp;S Records, New Atlantis, a range of Berlin-based labels and, of course, Warp Records.\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 203 x 47\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor: Ian Anderson\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN: 9780500027356\u003cbr\u003e\nFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 504\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"bookhero.ae","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46194240487577,"sku":"Table-C-19780500027356","price":50.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/5696\/6297\/files\/69959214e6e0a_A_to_Z_of_The_Designers_Republic.jpg?v=1771940268"},{"product_id":"harry-bertoia-sculpting-mid-century-modern-life","title":"Harry Bertoia Sculpting Mid-century Modern Life","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn extraordinary artist and designer: a fresh view of Harry Bertoia's entire body of work. Italian-born American Harry Bertoia (1915-78) was one of the most prolific and innovative artists and designers of the postwar period. Trained at the Cranbrook Academy of Art, where he met future colleagues and collaborators, such as Charles and Ray Eames, Florence Knoll, and Eero Saarinen, he went on to make one-of-a-kind jewelry, design iconic chairs, create thousands of unique sculptures including large-scale commissions for significant buildings, and advance the use of sound as sculptural material. His work speaks to the confluence of numerous fields of endeavor but is united throughout by a sculptural approach to making and an experimental embrace of metal.    Harry Bertoia: Sculpting Mid-Century Modern Life accompanies the first US museum retrospective of the artist's career to examine the full scope of his broad, interdisciplinary practice and features important examples of his furniture, jewelry, monotypes, and diverse sculptural output. Lavishly illustrated, the book offers new scholarly essays as well as a catalog of the artist's numerous large-scale commissions. It questions how and why we distinguish between a chair, a necklace, a screen, and a freestanding sculpture--and what Bertoia's sculptural things, when taken together, say about the fluidity of visual language across culture, both at midcentury and now.\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 241 x 279\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor: Jed Morse\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN: 9783858818621\u003cbr\u003e\nFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 223\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"bookhero.ae","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46194240848025,"sku":"Table-C-19783858818621","price":130.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/5696\/6297\/files\/6995928d1c6cc_Harry_Bertoia_Sculpting_Mid-century_Modern_Life.jpg?v=1771940278"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.ae\/collections\/coffee-table-books.oembed?page=3","provider":"Dubai - Buy Used\/Second-Hand Books - BookHero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
