U-Dox

The ultimate guide to over 300 of the very latest, ultra-collectible sneaker designs, presented through specially commissioned photography

This sequel to the classic Sneakers: The Complete Collectors’ Guide is a global survey and reference guide to the very best and most collectible limited-edition sneaker designs released over the last decade

Sneakers: The Complete Collectors' Guide was a phenomenal success and a key influence in the transformation of sneaker collecting from an underground subculture into a mainstream, multi-billion dollar business. Following publication of that book, sneaker brands began reissuing classic designs and creating shoes that would spur the second wave of collecting: limited editions and collaborations between the brands, invited artists, designers, musicians and cultural icons.

This sequel showcases the very best of this new sneaker culture, featuring more than 300 designs arranged by brand. Each sneaker is accompanied by informative text and a ‘data’ box listing Edition, Pack, Year Released, Original Purpose, Technology and Extras.

Essential for both the hardcore sneaker freak and the first time collector, this book will also attract and seduce fashion and design aficionados.

Turning Intelligence into Magic
John Hegarty

A revised and expanded edition of the book described by Books Monthly as ‘an absolute gem. A bible, in fact’.

If the future is going to be creative, then Hegarty on Advertising points you in the right direction. Written by one of the world’s legendary advertising men, this best-selling book contains five decades’ worth of wisdom from the man behind hugely influential campaigns for brands such as Levi’s, Audi, Boddingtons and Lynx.

In this new and improved edition John Hegarty reveals what lies behind a great idea and effective advertising, the ingredients of a successful brand, the right way and the wrong way to run and launch an advertising agency, why you should always question the brief, the art of pitching to a potential client, the central role of storytelling in advertising, the impact of new technology in a rapidly evolving industry, and the importance of dealing with succession. And if that isn’t enough, read the final chapters on winemaking and The Garage Soho, a startup incubator that he has co-founded, to find out what happens when an advertising man becomes the client and has ideas sold to him.

Both a credo for creativity and a brilliantly entertaining memoir, Hegarty on Advertising provides unparalleled industry insight through stories and anecdotes about the agencies in which Hegarty has played a vital role and the many characters with whom he has worked along the way. Packed with straight-down-the-line, generous, engaging and witty advice, it will be of immense appeal across the whole creative spectrum, from those who want to work in advertising to chief executives who understand the power and value of ideas that sell.

Gary S. Berger and Michael DiRuggiero

Foreword by Hanoch Gutfreund Text with preface by Gary S. Berger Text with epilogue by Michael DiRuggiero

With no technical jargon, and in a way both scientists and general readers can appreciate, this one-of-a-kind visual biography tells the story of Albert Einstein’s life and work.

With 150 high-resolution images, 'Einstein. The Man and His Mind' features rarely-seen photos of Albert Einstein, his private letters, ground-breaking manuscripts, journals, and equations written in his hand. General readers will be fascinated. Scientists, historians, and scholars will be, too. 'Einstein. The Man and His Mind' is a book that captures the imagination and that anyone can gaze at intently time and time again.

Written by a world-class rare book dealer in concert with the owner of what is likely the world’s largest private collection of Einstein photos and memorabilia, the brief annotations and commentary help make historical sense of a life fully lived. The book’s Foreword is by eminent physicist Hanoch Gutfreund, the Einstein Archives academic director at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

'Einstein. The Man and His Mind' belongs in family rooms as well as in public and academic libraries. The book’s astonishing images will prove enthralling for anyone interested in Einstein as an approachable human or as the genius who explored time, space, light, gravity, quantum theory, and cosmology in ways no other scientist had before.

Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari

Toiletpaper is an artists’ magazine created and produced by Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari, born out of a passion or obsession they both cultivate: images. The magazine contains no text; each picture springs from an idea, often simple, and through a complex orchestration of people it becomes the materialization of the artists’ mental outbursts. Since the first issue, in June 2010, Toilet Paper has created a world that displays ambiguous narratives and a troubling imagination. It combines the vernacular of commercial photography with twisted narrative tableaux and surrealistic imagery. The result is a publication that is itself a work of art which, through its accessible form as a magazine, and through its wide distribution, challenges the limits of the contemporary art economy.

Stephen Frailey

'Looking at Photography' is ideally positioned as a continuation of the celebrated volume 'Looking at Photographs' edited in 1973 by John Szarkowski, one of the 20th century's most influential critics and curators of photography and an accomplished photographer.

Keeping with the approach of having a photograph for each artist examined and a page of explanatory text,'Looking at Photography' chronicles the most important photographers from the mid-1970s to the present. Crossing all photographic genres, curator, lecturer and photographer. Stephen Frailey leads us through an examination of contemporary photography, honing sensibilities and developing new curiosities.

Artists featured in the volume include Tina Barney, Jeff Wall, Steven Meisel, Nan Goldin, Helmut Newton, Martin Parr, Tim Walker, and Wolfgang Tillmans. Stephen Frailey, director of the photography and video department at the School of Visual Arts (SVA) in New York from 1998 to 2018, is now its chairman emeritus. In 2012, he co-founded the graduate program in fashion photography at SVA, and is currently the director of education at Red Hook Labs in Brooklyn. His work has been exhibited in major private galleries and museums such as the Museum of Modern Art, New York; International Center for Photography, New York; and the National Museum of American Art, Washington, DC. His the work has been reviewed in the 'New York Times,' 'Arts Magazine,' 'ARTnews,' 'Artforum,' 'The Village Voice,' and the 'New Yorker.' He is co-founder of the New York Fashion Film Festival, and in 2007 he founded the photography magazine 'Dear Dave,' of which he is editor-in-chief.

Joshua Charow

Joshua Charow spent the past two years creating his first photography book titled 'Loft Law. The Last of New York City's Original Artist Lofts' about artists living under the protection of the Loft Law. The law, enacted in 1982 (Article 7-C of the Multiple Dwelling Law), granted protection and rent stabilization to thousands of artists who were living illegally in commercial and manufacturing zoned lofts in neighborhoods like Soho, Tribeca, and the Bowery after the manufacturing industry predominantly left Manhattan.

Two years ago, he found a map of the remaining protected buildings, rang hundreds of doorbells, and photographed and interviewed over 50 artists who are still living in these incredible lofts to this day. As New York currently faces an unprecedented amount of vacant commercial space, this is the perfect timing for this incredible untold story.

Alex Prager, Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari

‘ToiletAlex PaperPrager’ magazine is an original project born from the encounter between the visionary world of ‘Toiletpaper’ and the uncanny imagery of Alex Prager, American artist, director, and screenwriter.

The magazine features a back-to-back of twelve images by Alex Prager and twelve conceived by ‘Toiletpaper’: the alluring aesthetics, vibrant colors, and characteristic visual deviations found in ‘Toiletpaper’ enhance Prager’s universe, and reciprocally so. The artist’s exploration of the delicate boundary between reality and fiction, utilizing her unique blend of archetypes, everyday objects, humor, and allegory, forms the core of a tantalizing and enigmatic journey.

This new magazine is in continuity with ‘ToiletMartin PaperParr’, a special publication that in 2018 collected the most iconic images from the prolific archives of the internationally renowned artist Martin Parr and the Cattelan-Ferrari duo.

‘ToiletAlex PaperPrager’ is also the name of the project featured at Toiletpaper Apartment in via Balzaretti 8, in Milan, from April 12 to April 21 on the occasion of the Milan Art Week and Milan Design Week. In conjunction with this event, from April 12 to 21 the American gallery Lehmann Maupin will exhibit in its new pop-up space in Milan (Via della Spiga 48) new works by Alex Prager in a group exhibition of internatinal artists.

"We Started a Nightclub": The Birth of the Pyramid Cocktail Lounge as Told by Those Who Lived It

Published in association with Some Serious Business
What Studio 54 was for disco, the Pyramid Cocktail Lounge was for the alternative scene of 1980s downtown New York. Located at 101 Avenue A, the Pyramid offered a mixture of cultures: from groundbreaking, irreverent theater and experimental music to “anti-drag” that challenged the norms of gender binaries.

It began in 1981 when the East Village was considered a dangerous no man’s land, rents were cheap, AIDS was still unknown and a new generation of creators broke the mold and went on to make art in an atmosphere of unbridled celebration. Theme nights and bar dancers, fixtures of the downtown avant-garde and kids escaping their past all added to the club’s popularity. At the Pyramid, John Jesurun and Ann Magnuson rubbed elbows with They Might Be Giants, the Red Hot Chili Peppers and 3 Teens Kill 4, who shared a stage with Lady Bunny and Hapi Phace. By offering a home to obscure, genre-defying and unpolished acts, the Pyramid played a crucial role in shaping the city’s underground cultural scene for decades to come. In 2021, the Pyramid closed permanently. Though the venue was no longer the hotspot of its early years, its closure prompted an outpouring of reminiscence and mourning for a bygone era, amid a broad renewed interest in the art and culture of 1980s New York.

"We Started A Nightclub" is an inside look at the cultural history of the East Village in the early 1980s. The project, which began in 2006, represents the only in-depth exploration of the Pyramid’s origins. An oral history comprising more than 75 interviews, it covers the early years of the Pyramid from the time of its founding through its rise, near demise and rebirth. The book includes previously unpublished photos, flyers and other ephemera, as well as excerpts from more than 50 press releases written between 1983 and 1986.

Patrick Mauriès, Marie Kalt

The first publication dedicated to Karl Lagerfeld's glamorous homes, known for their eclectic interiors, ranging from the Art Deco to the ultramodern

While Karl Lagerfeld was famous for being at the very centre of the fashion industry for over half a century, he was equally opinionated when it came to interiors, which acted as a private creative outlet alongside his fashion designs.

Following an overview by Patrick Mauriès, each house is introduced by a short text by Marie Kalt unveiling its history and identifying key designers and pieces. The homes are documented by date, beginning with rare photography of Lagerfeld’s early addresses in the 1960s and 1970s, through to his final house purchase in 2009. From the elegant Art-Deco inspired apartment in Saint-Sulpice, Paris, to the incredibly ornate 18th-century mansion, Hôtel Pozzo di Borgo (his muse and collaborator Amanda Harlech described Lagerfeld as having ‘a Versailles complex’) – Lagerfeld’s houses reveal he was a collector of a Renaissance scale, and showed spectacular range in his decorating styles. Lagerfeld would balance the old with the new, humorously describing the minimalist decor of his 200-year old apartment in Quai Voltaire, Paris as ‘like floating in your own spaceship over a very civilised past’, and moved from one atmosphere to the next, leaving a Memphis-designed apartment in Monte Carlo for a Grand-Tour themed Roman pied-à-terre, followed by bucolic French country houses and even a majestic Nordic villa in his native Hamburg.

Presented in a large, elegant format, Karl Lagerfeld: A Life in Houses will be a rich source of inspiration for those interested in interior design, and will appeal to fans of the decorative arts and the fashion designer himself.
