Paperback. Condition: Very Good. When legendary black ops veteran Colonel Scott "Hort" Horton tracks Rain down in Tokyo, Rain can't resist the offer: a multi-million dollar payday for the "natural causes" demise of three ultra-high-profile targets who are dangerously close to launching a coup in America. But the opposition on this job is going to be too much for even Rain to pull it off alone. He'll need a detachment of other deniable irregulars: his partner, the former Marine sniper, Dox. Ben Treven, a covert operator with ambivalent motives and conflicted loyalties. And Larison, a man with a hair trigger and a secret he'll kill to protect. From the shadowy backstreets of Tokyo and Vienna, to the deceptive glitz and glamour of Los Angeles and Las Vegas, and finally to a Washington, D.C. in a permanent state of war, these four lone wolf killers will have to survive presidential hit teams, secret CIA prisons, and a national security state as obsessed with guarding its own secrets as it is with invading the privacy of the populace. But first, they'll have to survive each other. 296 pages.…

Hardcover. Condition: near fine(+). English edition. Black and grey folio, b&w illus to boards, 272 pages, chiefly b&w illustrations (some color), plans, 30 cm. The villas of the 1920s in and around Paris, including such modern classics as the Villa La Roche-Jeanneret in the Auteuil district of Paris, the Villa Stein-de Monzie in Garches, and the Villa Savoye in Poissy, constituted a radically new orientation for architecture that have made them central points of reference for all subsequent generations of architects right up to the present. This standard work, long out of print, reveals the design processes behind these icons of modernism, from the first idea to the occupation of the homes, and sheds light on the steps and contexts of daily work. It measures the concept of modern architecture against the built reality, and enables us to rediscover the architect Le Corbusier behind the myth. The continuing relevance of Le Corbusier s oeuvre today is underscored by the extensive exhibition Le Corbusier: The Art of Architecture, organized by the Vitra Design Museum in collaboration with the Netherlands Architecture Institute, the Royal Institute of British Architects and the Fondation Le Corbusier.

Leder. Condition: Gut. Quart, 27 x 20,5 cm Erste Auflage, 22 nicht nummerierte Blätter. Ganzleder Handeinband mit Goldprägung und dreiseitigem Goldschnitt. (Einband staubrandig, leicht stockfleckig und berieben, innen sauber, im Ganzen ordentlich erhalten). "Friedrich Wilhelm Baumeister (geboren 22. Januar 1889 in Stuttgart; gestorben 31. August 1955 ebenda) war ein deutscher Maler, Grafiker, Bühnenbildner, Typograf, Kunsttheoretiker, Autor und Hochschullehrer. Er gilt als bedeutender Künstler der Moderne. (.) Nach 1945 spielte Willi Baumeister in der deutschen und europäischen Kunstentwicklung eine wichtige Rolle. Von den deutschen Malern, die trotz der Verfolgung durch die Nationalsozialisten das Land nicht verlassen haben, gelangen zwischen 1933 und 1945 nur wenigen anderen Künstlern solch zukunftsweisende, zu neuen Gehalten und Formen führende Schritte. Nach 1945 wurde er zum Wortführer in der Auseinandersetzung um die Moderne. Baumeister galt als Anwalt einer 'abstrakten' Malerei und wurde als solcher ebenso hoch geschätzt wie heftig attackiert." (Wikipedia). "Luitpold Domberger (geboren 6. November 1912 in Höfen an der Enz; gestorben 14. September 2005) war ein Pionier des künstlerischen Siebdrucks in Deutschland. (.) Nach diversen Experimenten mit einfachsten Hilfsmitteln richtete er 1949 eine erste Siebdruckwerkstätte in der Gänsheidestraße 26 in Stuttgart ein. Sein dortiger Nachbar war der Künstler Willi Baumeister. Als dieser sich nach der neuen Drucktechnik erkundigte, kam es zu einer Zusammenarbeit zwischen dem Siebdrucker und dem Künstler, in deren Folge zwischen 1950 und Baumeisters Tod im Jahr 1955 knapp 60 Serigrafien entstanden. Angeregt durch erste Ausstellungen der Baumeister-Siebdrucke ließen bald auch weitere Künstler bei Domberger drucken." (Wikipedia). - Weitere Bilder auf Anfrage oder auf unserer Homepage. …
