Drawing has recently experienced a renewal of importance in the art world and has rarely been as widely represented in biennials, art fairs, and exhibitions as it is now. Similar in concept, scope, and structure to Phaidon's successful volume Vitamin P, VITAMIN D presents, in A to Z order, the work of 109 artists who have emerged internationally since 1990. All use drawing as a primary medium. Whether representational or abstract, small or- large in scale, using only one line or rich in colors and pattern, drawings have a highly descriptive and meticulously detailed quality that is being explored by an increasing number of contemporary artists. Extending beyond images traditionally associated with this medium, VITAMIN D illustrates the complexity, variety, and relevance of the practice of drawing today.

Le dessin jouit d'une importance renouvelée dans le monde de l'art et a rarement été aussi largement représenté qu'à l'heure actuelle, que ce soit dans les biennales, les foires d'art contemporain ou les expositions. VITAMINE D présente les oeuvres de 109 artistes, classés de A à Z, apparus sur la scène internationale depuis 1990 et pour lesquels le dessin est un moyen d'expression artistique privilégié. Il s'inscrit, par le concept, le champ d'étude et la structure, dans la lignée de Vitamine P, ouvrage publié par Phaidon ayant rencontré un grand succès auprès du public. Figuratif ou abstrait, de petit Ou grande dimension, sobre ou exubérant, uni ou coloré, le dessin est à la fois hautement descriptif et méticuleusement détaillé, et est exploré par un nombre sans cesse croissant d'artistes. Au-delà des images traditionnellement associées à cet art, VITAMINE D illustre la richesse, la variété et la pertinence de la pratique du dessin contemporain.

Frida Kahlo is regarded as one of the most significant artists of the twentieth century. In recent times, public interest in the dramatic details of Kahlo's life has threatened to eclipse serious consideration of her artistic achievement. This beautifully produced book focuses our attention once more on the artistic qualities that make her paintings some of the most iconic images of the last hundred years. Presenting majors works alongside the lesser known, and incorporating paintings, drawings and photographs, Frida Kahlo offers a thoroughly researched, accessible overview of her life's work. Essays by international critics are combined with over two hundred illustrations, an illustrated glossary explaining the symbolic background to the key elements that recur in her paintings, and a biography detailing the major events of the artist's life. Anyone with an interest in this most public and yet enigmatic of artist will need this book.
Explores the power of abandoned architecture, capturing the awe-inspiring drama of lost and forgotten, as well as reimagined and transformed structures across the globe. From Victorian gas holders, railway stations and factories, to World War Il flak towers and bunkers, from Gothic churches, as well as Modernist and Brutalist masterpieces, this book demonstrates that transforming our built heritage has the power to change lives, communities, neighbourhoods and cities the world over.
