"I don't have two lives," Annie Leibovitz writes in theIntroduction to this collection of her work from 1990 to 2005."This is one life, and the personal pictures and the assignmentwork are all part of it." Portraits of well-known figures-JohnnyCash, Nicole Kidman, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Keith Richards, MichaelJordan, Joan Didion, R2-D2, Patti Smith, Nelson Mandela, JackNicholson, and William Burroughs-appear alongside pictures ofLeibovitz's family and friends, reportage from the siege ofSarajevo in the early Nineties, and landscapes. The pictures form anarrative of a life rich in contrasts and continuities. Thephotographer has a long relationship that ends with illness anddeath. She chronicles the celebrations and heartbreaks of her largeand robust family. She has children of her own. All the while, sheis working, and the public work resonates with the themes of thelife.

《中国美术院校教材：潘思同水彩画直观教材选》所介绍的是潘思同20世纪五、六十年代在浙江美术学院水彩画教学中使用的部分直观教材。所谓直观教材就是上课时的图示和示范作品。由于上课的教学时间有限，不可能在课堂里做大量示范，所以在每堂课上课之前，作为备课，潘思同都要针对一、二个问题，画一些直观教材，上面配备必要的文字说明，一方面为了节省时间，另一方面也为了取得视觉效果。在直观教材中，有些图本身就是独立的作品，因此，下课后学生常常争先恐后地拿去观摩、临摹。对这些直观教材，学生反应很好，有些青年教师也常借去作为参考。当时许多同行建议让这些教材印刷出版，但由于当时彩色印刷费用高昂，会大大提高书价，而且印刷质量也大有问题，如果采用黑白图版则大大削弱教材的直观效果，因而始终未能出版面世1993年，“

As a tribute to the gardening of a unique region this volumeportrays 32 of the most celebrated gardens of the American South,ranging from the grand gardens of the Antebellum Plantations tostrikingly simple, creative plantings of the modern era. Drawingfrom primary sources as well as first-hand impressions of eachgarden featured, the author reveals the special beauty of southerngardens along with the personalities of their gardeners. Thisvolume, illustrated with 200 specially commissioned photographs incolour and many vintage prints, surveys the southern garden from1750 to the present. It includes early gardeners who introduced newplants and garden designs to the early coastal plantations;homesteaders who moved inland as far west as Tennessee and plantedsmall, practical gardens; industrialists who used new money tobuild large formal gardens, such as the Vanderbilt country estatein Asheville, North Carolina; and, finally, 20th-centuryindividuals whose rustic getaways consist of fantastic countrygrounds o

This book illustrates and discusses 35 of the finest paintings by Dou, one of the most highly regarded Dutch painters of the 17th century. Dou learned glass painting from his father and in 1628 became Rembrandt's first pupil. After some early portraits, he painted chiefly small domestic scenes characterized by minute detail (often painted under a magnifying glass), skillful chiaroscuro, and lifelike effect. Dou's work was very popular and continued to be influential until the mid-19th century when appreciation for precision in painting declined under the influence of impressionism. This will be a beautifully produced catalogue that will introduce the works of Gerrit Dou to a wider audience.

Asymptote, an award-winning New York City-based architecturalfirm, expands the boundaries of traditional practice with work thatranges from buildings and urban design to computer-generatedenvironments. Recognized internationally as both cutting-edgearchitects and virtual-reality artists, Asymptote partners LiseAnne Couture and Hani Rashid have designed and written the firstbook to document their 'real world' (as opposed to virtual)projects completed since 1995. It includes work as diverse as atrading floor for the New York Stock Exchange; a multimediaresearch park in Kyoto, Japan; a modular furniture system forKnoll; and a centre for art and technology for the GuggenheimMuseum in Soho, New York.
