Eine eingehende Untersuchung des malerischen Werks Pieter Bruegels d. A. Die Zeit von Pieter Bruegel d. A. (um 1526/30-1569) war gepragt von starken religiosen und politischen Konflikten. In seine Lebensjahre fallen die Konfessionskriege, die grausame Herrschaft des Herzogs von Alba als Statthalter der spanischen Niederlande und die Grauel der Inquisition. Bis heute geben Leben und Werk des flamischen Kunstlers Ratsel auf. Wahrend die fruhe Forschung den volkstumlichen Charakter von Bruegels Werk betonte, messen aktuellere Untersuchungen dem humanistischen Inhalt eine gro?ere Bedeutung bei. Ursprunglich geht seine Malerei auf die Arbeit fur den Verleger Hieronymus Cock zuruck. Bruegel entwarf zahlreiche originelle grafische Bilderserien, die mit Erfolg in ganz Europa vertrieben wurden. Zu Darstellungen von Tugenden und Lastern gesellten sich lebhafte Bauernfeste sowie eindrucksvolle Landschaftspanoramen. Danach konzentrierte er sich immer starker auf die Malerei und schuf vor allem Werke fur die kulturelle Elite Antwerpens und Brussels. Bruegel war ein Kunstler, der sich mutig mit seiner Zeit auseinandersetzte und durch eigene Denkansatze zu neuen Bildfindungen und Losungen gelangte. Anstatt die Realitat zu verklaren, thematisierte er die Grausamkeit der Religionskriege und zeigte sich auch kritisch gegenuber der Kirche. Geschickt verbarg Bruegel seine politischen und religiosen Ansichten hinter einer anspielungsreichen Bildsprache, die den Betrachter bis heute dazu anreizt, hinter den scheinbar harmlosen Alltagsszenen versteckte, hintergrundige Botschaften zu entdecken. Basierend auf TASCHENs XXL-Monografie, einem umfassenden Uberblick uber das Gesamtwerk Bruegels, enthalt dieser zum 40-jahrigem Jubilaum des Verlages erscheinende, kompakte Band samtliche 40 Gemalde des Ausnahmekunstlers. Hochwertige Reproduktionen inklusive ausgesuchter Detailaufnahmen sowie kenntnisreiche Texte machen deutlich, wie Bruegel auf geistreiche wie zeitlose Weise das Theater des Lebens einfing, und enthullen sein uberlebensgro?es Universum in beispielloser Klarheit

An in-depth exploration of Bruegel’s painted work The life and times of Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c. 1526/30–1569) were marked by stark cultural conflict. He witnessed religious wars, the Duke of Alba’s brutal rule as governor of the Netherlands, and the palpable effects of the Inquisition. To this day, the Flemish artist remains shrouded in mystery. We know neither where nor exactly when he was born. But while early scholarship emphasized the vernacular character of his painting and graphic work, modern research has attached greater importance to its humanistic content. Starting out as a print designer for publisher Hieronymus Cock, Bruegel produced numerous print series that were distributed throughout Europe. These depicted vices and virtues alongside jolly peasant festivals and sweeping landscape panoramas. He then increasingly turned to painting, working for the cultural elite of Antwerp and Brussels. Rather than idealizing reality, he bravely confronted the issues of his day, addressing the horrors of religious warfare and taking a critical stand against the institution of the Church. To this end, Bruegel developed his own pictorial language of dissidence, lacing innocuous everyday scenes with subliminal statements in order to escape repercussions. This book is derived from our XXL monograph, which saw TASCHEN undertake a comprehensive photographic survey of the artist’s oeuvre. The result boasts exceptional details and reproductions, unveiling Bruegel’s larger-than-life universe with unprecedented clarity. This volume, in celebration of our 40th anniversary, presents all 40 paintings, accompanied by enlarged details and accessible, immersive texts.

Positioned precariously between the uptight '50s and the freewheeling '70s, the 1960s marked a transitional decade in the film industry. As art, mass market, and pop culture merged and collided in true pop art style, cinema swirled with psychedelic energy. This handbook gathers the best films of the era, exploring the making and the mastery of such cinematic star turns as The Leopard, The Birds, Belle de Jour, A Fistful of Dollars, and Doctor Zhivago. With audiences ever more glued to their TV sets and the loosened rules about what was "permissible" in cinema with the abolition of the Production Code, filmmakers embraced the freedom to explore the possibilities of film as an art form. As was often the case, the Europeans led the way, the French with Nouvelle Vague directors like Godard and Truffaut, and the Italians with such innovative films as Fellini's 8 1/2 and Antonioni's Eclipse. By the mid-'60s the United States also began to exercise greater creative liberties, especially in films from young underground directors such as Russ Meyer, John Frankenheimer, and Sam Peckinpah. Meanwhile, Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music ushered out the grandiose Hollywood musical era with a bang while the Spaghetti Western became an instant phenomenon. Bond, James Bond, first appeared on-screen and Kubrick set new standards for sci-fi with 2001: A Space Odyssey. Though the term "feminism" may not have been ready for prime time, the decade was also one of major advances in female characterization. From Jane Fonda's Barbarella to Holly Golightly of Breakfast at Tiffany's to Bonnie Parker of Bonnie and Clyde, it was the 1960s that saw women on-screen graduate from decorative accessories to complex, kick-ass personas.

The ultimate 1990s movie compendium The last decade of the 20th century consolidated once again the fascinating power of the silver screen, both by looking to the future and drawing on the past. It's no exaggeration to say that never before had there been a time when the cinema focused so ironically on its own vanity, and never had it been so intensely preoccupied with itself as a medium. Filmmakers like Steven Soderbergh, David Lynch, Quentin Tarantino, and Ang Lee created worlds that were as cryptic as they were disorientating, while James Cameron and Steven Spielberg conjured up ever more spectacular special effects. Do you dream of wandering the desert with The English Patient? Could you save yourself from the doomed Titanic? Are you still convinced that There's Something About Mary? 100 Movies of the 1990s reviews cinema's most important events from 1991 to 2000 and brings to life a rich variety of movie highlights. The storyline and aesthetic characteristics of each film are presented in an incisive and informative way. Commentaries on actors, directors, and historical or technical aspects of cinema introduce additional features of interest. 100 Movies of the 1990s is specialized yet entertaining, clear yet challenging. A work resembling a great moment of cinema, unforgettable and utterly gripping.

Rather than idealizing reality, he addressed the horrors of religious warfare and took a critical stand against the institution of the Church. To this end, he developed his own pictorial language of dissidence, lacing innocuous everyday scenes with subliminal statements in order to escape repercussions. This collection captures all the breadth and splendid detail of Bruegel’s oeuvre like never before, and gathers all 40 paintings, 65 drawings, and 89 engravings in pristine reproductions?each piece a unique witness to both the religious mores and the close-knit folk culture of Bruegel’s time.

TASCHEN's 25th anniversary - Special edition! Step right up and get your fill of 80s nostalgia with the movie bible to end all movie bibles. We've diligently compiled a list of 140 of the most influential movies of the 1980s that's sure to please popcorn gobblers and highbrow chin-strokers alike. The 80s was a time for adventurers, an era of excess, pomp, and bravado. In the era when mullets and shoulder pads were all the rage, moviegoers got their kicks from flicks as wide-ranging as Blade Runner, When Harry Met Sally, and Blue Velvet. Without a doubt, sci-fi was the most important genre of the decade, with non-human characters like E.T. winning the hearts of millions while the slimy creatures from Aliens became the stuff of nightmares and movies like Ghostbusters and Back to the Future fused comedy and sci-fi to the delight of audiences everywhere. In fact, the 1980s saw the invention of a new reality, a movieworld so convincingly real - no matter now far-fetched - that spectators could not help but abandon hemselves to it. Now that's entertainment, folks. Features: Cast/crew listings, Box office figures, Trivia, Film stills, Useful information on technical stuff.
