La monografía definitiva sobre la obra del escultor, artista de instalaciones y pionero del Arte Povera Luciano FabroLuciano Fabro fue miembro fundador y luego crítico principal de Arte Povera, el movimiento artístico basado en materiales y experiencias que comenzó en Italia a fines de la década de 1960. Continuó siendo exhibido internacionalmente, convirtiéndose en el primer artista del grupo en recibir una importante retrospectiva en los EE. UU., en el Museo de Arte Moderno de San Francisco en 1992. Fabro fue un artista controvertido, pero aún así un favorito de la crítica: en 2018 el arte líder la publicación The Brooklyn Rail dedicó un número entero a Fabro, y la crítica del New York Times, Roberta Smith, escribió que Fabro trató ''la creación artística menos como una profesión y más como un experimento continuo destinado a mantenerse entretenido y al espectador un poco fuera de balance''. Esta monografía completa y muy ilustrada es la primera descripción completa de la vida y carrera de Fabro, escrita por la estimada crítica y curadora Margit Rowell, quien interactuó repetidamente con Fabro en sus últimos años, y se publica con el apoyo y la participación total del patrimonio del artista y galerías internacionales, Paula Cooper (Nueva York), Christian Stein (Milán) y Simon Lee (Londres y Hong Kong).

New Surrealism: The Uncanny in Contemporary Painting de Robert Zeller ofrece una amplia exposición tanto del Surrealismo histórico como de su legado en el mundo del arte.Demuestra las muchas maneras en que el movimiento artístico más significativo del siglo pasado sigue siendo relevante hoy en día, presentando una selección internacional de artistas contemporáneos cuyas composiciones y práctica de estudio revelan su influencia.Son muchas las modalidades del Surrealismo histórico que aún mantienen su vigencia contemporánea: la presentación de lo familiar como desconocido e inquietante, la yuxtaposición de imágenes aparentemente inconexas, el uso del absurdo para criticar cuestiones políticas o sociales, y la utilización de imágenes eróticas en un contexto irracional y no lineal. No todos los artistas reunidos en este libro se identifican a sí mismos como surrealistas, pero cada uno utiliza alguna variante del surrealismo de manera personal.El libro comienza con un estudio de los orígenes, el liderazgo, los artistas participantes y los principales hitos del surrealismo histórico. Zeller hace una crónica del movimiento a partir del final de la Primera Guerra Mundial y el nacimiento de Dadá. Los protagonistas y acontecimientos más importantes aparecen a lo largo de la cronología de los hechos -incluida la Segunda Guerra Mundial, y artistas tan notables como Max Ernst, Marcel Duchamp, Leonora Carrington y muchos otros- hasta la muerte de su líder André Breton en 1966.A continuación, Zeller analiza cómo se ponen en práctica los elementos del Nuevo Surrealismo en el mundo del arte contemporáneo. La segunda sección ofrece un estudio de 29 artistas contemporáneos que participan en las variaciones aparentemente ilimitadas de los temas originales del Nuevo Surrealismo, como Rosa Loy, Glenn Brown y Arghavan Khosravi. La tercera sección presenta a 14 artistas, entre ellos importantes artistas contemporáneos como Inka Essenhigh, Ginny Casey y Anna Weyant, que hablan de la influencia del Surrealismo en su práctica de estudio, detallando con sus propias palabras cómo crean una composición de principio a fin.

The dazzling new novel by Stefan Hertmans, author of the modern classic War and Turpentine.In 1979, Stefan Hertmans fell in love with a dilapidated old house in Ghent, Belgium, which he restored to become his peaceful sanctuary. Now, all these years later, he learns that a bust of Hitler once sat on the mantelpiece, and a war criminal and his family relaxed in its rooms.This shocking discovery sends Hertmans off to the archives, to uncover the secrets of the house and to reimagine this man's life and expose the atrocities he's responsible for. We see Willem Verhulst as a weak, narcissistic man who climbed high in the ranks of the SS, a fascinating case study for the cruel and perverse mentality of the Nazis.The Ascent portrays the deep tragedy of Flemish collaboration during the Second World War, as Hertmans masterfully brings history and the house to life, imagining individual lives to tell the greater European story.Translated from the Dutch by David McKay

A comedy writer thinks she’s sworn off love, until a dreamily handsome pop star flips the script on all her assumptions. Romantic Comedy is a hilarious, observant and deeply tender novel from New York Times–bestselling author Curtis Sittenfeld.Sally Milz is a sketch writer for ''The Night Owls,'' the late-night live comedy show that airs each Saturday. With a couple of heartbreaks under her belt, she’s long abandoned the search for love, settling instead for the occasional hook-up, career success, and a close relationship with her stepfather to round out a satisfying life.But when Sally’s friend and fellow writer Danny Horst begins dating Annabel, a glamorous actor who guest-hosted the show, he joins the not-so-exclusive group of talented but average-looking and even dorky men at the show—and in society at large—who’ve gotten romantically involved with incredibly beautiful and accomplished women. Sally channels her annoyance into a sketch called the ''Danny Horst Rule,'' poking fun at this phenomenon while underscoring how unlikely it is that the reverse would ever happen for a woman.Enter Noah Brewster, a pop music sensation with a reputation for dating models, who signed on as both host and musical guest for this week’s show. Dazzled by his charms, Sally hits it off with Noah instantly, and as they collaborate on one sketch after another, she begins to wonder whether there might actually be sparks flying. But this isn’t a romantic comedy, it’s real life. And in real life, someone like him would never date someone like her...right?With her keen observations and trademark ability to bring complex women to life on the page, Sittenfeld explores the neurosis-inducing and heart-fluttering wonder of love, while slyly dissecting the social rituals of romance and gender relations in the modern age.
