Описание: In every segment of retail, countless products
compete for our attention. Whether
fashion, cosmetics, furnishings, accessories,
or gourmet food, the range of goods is
overwhelming. Designers and manufacturers
are faced with the daunting challenge of
setting their products apart to reach their
target audiences. The best ones captivate
us by telling fascinating stories or creating
compelling retail spaces and experiences.
The Still Life compiles striking editorial
photography, innovative shop window displays,
and intelligent visual merchandising
that succeed in doing exactly that. The
featured work is created by imaginative
stylists and photographers who arrange
products, objects, and materials in unusual
ways. Distinctive worlds of images result
that are reminiscent of Baroque and
Renaissance still life paintings in which
arrangements of flowers, fruit, musical
instruments, and other objects were used
as powerful allegories for various aspects
of life and death.
Today's creatives are developing new
visual storytelling techniques for engaging
customers. The Still Life showcases their
entire spectrum. The book illustrates how
a combination of quality handcraft and
inspired flair are being used to put familiar
products, such as gardening tools, cutlery,
purses, writing implements, or jewelry,
into surprising new contexts, ranging from
minimalistic understatement to opulent
glamour. It includes shop windows, magazine
spreads, and showrooms meticulously
styled into works of art.
The Still Life is a source of inspiration
for anyone working in product communication,
editorial design, and retail who is
responsible for creating fitting platforms
on which to promote premium products --
brand worlds in which the products come
to life for potential customers. Featuring
retail spaces that offer extraordinary experiences
just by stopping in for a visit, the
book is also a visual feast for all connoisseurs
of quality consumer goods.

Описание: This new series examines several highly regarded masterpieces in an attempt to unravel the mysteries that surround them. Through an innovative concept and a fresh approach, 'Art Mysteries', edited by Marco Carminati and Stefano Zuffi, presents an up-to-date and spectacular reading of famous paintings, investigating key clues that suggest previously unknown background information. 'The Stories of St Matthew' marked a turning point in Caravaggio's career, and in the history of painting itself. Behind their mystery lies an unprecedented creative process, characterised by choices and pentimenti revealed by detailed analyses. At the time, Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio was an unruly thirty-year-old painter of small to medium-sized works,commissioned privately. Although at first Cardinal Mathieu Cointrel had no intention of involving Caravaggio in the decoration of his family chapel in the Church of San Luigi dei Francesi in Rome, fate (a positive fate in the light of art history) offered the painter, through a series of contretemps and coincidences, the chance of a lifetime to become a publicly acclaimed master.

Описание: The story of rock lives in Lynn Goldsmith’s photographs. After coming of age in the Midwest in the tumultuous 1960s, she crashed the music scene in New York and emerged as one of its leading image-makers. She chronicled Bruce Springsteen’s passage to glory, the Rolling Stone’s legendary stadium tours, Michael Jackson’s staggering ascent, U2’s arrival in New York and the brooding force of Bob Marley. Culture heroes like Bob Dylan and Patti Smith became frequent subjects for her lens. The range of her work is staggering. In Rock and Roll Stories, she shares the best of this work.

Описание: From the earliest days of Hollywood, the pressures of fame led to a febrile atmosphere among its stars. The magic of the movies made audiences pulses quicken, but what was really happening in the lives of the actors up on the silver screen? Hollywood Love Stories looks at 14 real-life love affairs across the golden age of the movies, from the 1920s to the 1970s. From the swashbuckling romance between Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford, and the poignant lifelong affair between Spencer Tracey and Katherine Hepburn, to the scandalous liaison between Ingrid Bergman and Roberto Rossellini, each account offers insights and surprises, accompanied by wonderful images and ephemera that bring every love affair vividly alive.
