Condition: neu. OBrosch., 160 Seiten mit farb. Abb. und CD, 24 x 33 cm, neu, originalverpackt. Sprache: englisch, tschechisch || The world of children is a subject that had an uncommonly powerful impact on modern art. It was a focal interest of painter and writer Josef capek, whose works for children occupy a unique place in Czech culture. Moreover, this theme served as inspiration for other artists, such as poets Franti?ek Hrubin and Jan Skácel, who forged their own creative path to the world of children. Their poetry collections Modré nebe (The Blue Sky, 1948) and Kam ode?ly lane (Where the Does Went, 1985) were inspired by motifs in capek's drawings in which children are the subject matter and which were first published at a special exhibition in 1935. In 1950 composer Miloslav Kabelác created a cycle of children's choruses that he titled Modré nebe (The Blue Sky), with the subtitle A Little Book of Children's Songs Based on the Pictures of Josef capek and the Words of Franti?ek Hrubin for Children's Chorus and Piano. Nespatrite hada (Not a Single Snake in Sight) explores these links. It delves into the more general questions that the world of children, art for children, and art by children opened up for modern Czech (and European) visual arts, literature, and music. The creative approach that capek, Hrubin, Skácel, and Kabelác adopted is unique evidence of multimedia inspirations in modern art, which remain relevant to the present day. In order to make use of the multimedia aspect in this publication, the book includes a CD with a recording of Kabelác's The Blue Sky, performed by Radost Children's Choir, and recitations of Hrubin's and Skácel's verse by Disman's Children's Radio Ensemble.

Condition: neu. OBrosch., 255 Seiten mit zahlr. teils farb. Abb., gr.-4° (19 x 28 cm), neu. "The book is devoted to the post-war art of the Czech painter, sculptor and theoretician Emil Filla (1882-1953) and his relationship to Chinese art and the Communist ideology. It describes Filla's unique collection of Chinese art and discusses its creation. It explores Filla's understanding of Far Eastern painting that was reflected in his essays on Chinese landscape painting and his late-career paintings. These pictures in particular are given greater attention, notably with regard to the approach to them by the exponents of the Communist regime whose frequently vulgarizing opinions deeply and adversely afflicted the artist's life and work. Filla faced various forms of persecution, in spite of which he managed to keep the post of professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague for the rest of his life. The book has been published on the ocassion of the opening of a new permanent exhibition mounted in the Emil Filla Commemoration Hall at the Peruc chateau where the artist had spent his summers and that had played an important role in his late-life activities." bilingual Czech and English Book Language/s: Czech, English.…
