They included such classic tales as The Five Orange Pips and The Adventure of the Speckled Band, and were gathered together in a collection known as The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, representing some of the finest detective stories ever written.

David Diao
Hoy -5% en Libros

Tinari, Philip

Tracing a remarkably varied career, this monograph on the painter David Diao follows his stylistic evolution-from abstraction to genre-defying and candid self-exploration.,his book accompanies the first full-scale retrospective of David Diao's entire oeuvre. It is a career of twists and turns- Diao's work was originally influenced by the New York School of the 1960s before he became obsessed with the work of Barnett Newman, referencing many of the artist's paintings in his own. After a period of restless inactivity, Diao's most recent works touch on his personal history as a Chinese immigrant in America, modernist architecture, and identity politics. In addition to spectacular reproductions of Diao's work over four decades, this comprehensive book features illustrations and essays on Diao's treatment of identity and his aversion to categorization, and analysis of Diao's work as a method of capturing the process of forgetting and the inherent fallibility of art historical memory. Long overdue, this book celebrates Diao's unique vision and art.

In 2014, northeastern Syria might have been the last place you would expect to find a revolution centered on women's rights. But that year, an all-female militia faced off against ISIS in a little town few had ever heard of: Kobani. By then, the Islamic State had swept across vast swathes of the country, taking town after town and spreading terror as the civil war burned all around it. From that unlikely showdown in Kobani emerged a fighting force that would wage war against ISIS across northern Syria alongside the United States. In the process, these women would spread their own political vision, determined to make women's equality a reality by fighting - house by house, street by street, city by city - the men who bought and sold women.

Milton Glaser's designs changed the way we see the world.' - Gloria Steinem.An overview of the work of illustrator and designer Milton Glaser during the 1960s and 70sFrom 1954, when he co-founded the legendary Push Pin Studios, to the late ’70s, Milton Glaser was one of the most celebrated graphic designers of his day, whose work graced countless book and album covers, posters, magazine covers, and advertisements, both famous and little-known. Glaser largely defined the international visual style for illustration, advertising, and typeface design and interest in his legacy continues unabated, with modern creatives acknowledging his influence, for example, in 2014 Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner enlisted Glaser to design the ad campaign and branding for the show’s final season.His renowned work garnered solo exhibitions at the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Creator of the iconic ‘I love NY’ logo (featuring a heart symbol in place of the word ‘love’) and cofounder of New York magazine, Glaser received numerous accolades and lifetime achievement awards. Across thousands of works across all print media, he invented a graphic language of bright, flat color, drawing and collage, imbued with wit. This collection of work from Glaser’s Pop period features hundreds of examples of his design that have not been seen since their original publication, demonstrating the graphic revolution that transformed design and popular culture.

The United Nations and collective security in the face of global threats: from Ukraine and Russia to Iran, Syria and Afghanistan (Papel + e-book)
Hoy -5% en Libros

García Magariño, Sergio

This book covers some of the key global dynamics of our age. It aspires to assist the non-specialized reader, as well as the specialized one, to understand the world we live in, the forces that affect our coexistence, the trends that will shape our future and the promising avenues for peace and prosperity. Globalization, collective security, the connection between human rights, development and peace will be some of the concepts upon which the book aims to shed some light in a rigorous but a didactic manner. In addition, those complex cases that rarely are explained in the divulgative media, such as the functioning of the United Nations and its mechanisms for conflict resolution, Daesh and Al-Qaeda, the Palestinian conflict, the Arab Spring, the wars of Iraq and Afghanistan and the violence in Afrika will be examined balancing the details with the need to be pedagogical. In brief, this work is an attempt, on the one hand, to describe and explain the forces and threats that were present and contributed to the upsurge of coronavirus pandemics, such as climate change and the exploitation of nature and, on the other, to set some hopeful paths and to inform policies to rearrange our order: if social dynamics are global, global should be our political governance too. Finally, the book approaches, from an innovative and enlightening manner, the ins and outs of the Russian aggression to Ukraine.
