A panoply of the finest works by Albrecht Dürer, the master of the Northern European Renaissance, is collected in this magnificent book. Vienna's Albertina Museum is home to the world's most comprehensive collection of works by Albrecht Dürer. Dürer's genius for drawing and painting rivaled that of his Italian contemporaries, and his exquisitely detailed and delicately colored watercolors and prints elevated these to new levels of accomplishment. This book includes many of Dürer's most renowned masterpieces: his watercolors The Great Piece of Turf, A Blue Roller, and Left Wing of a Blue Roller; his chiaroscuro drawings Praying Hands and An Elderly Man of 93 Years; and his precocious silverpoint Self-Portrait at 13--along with numerous other works from the Albertina's collection. Beautifully reproduced, these images convey Dürer's fascination with the world around him and his extraordinary ability to bring that world to life.

Klimt's and Schiele's draftsmanship still enthralls with its disturbing eroticismGustav Klimt (1862–1918) and his younger protégé Egon Schiele (1890–1918) are considered two of the greatest figures of Austrian Modernism. Whether inspiring or competing with one another, together they reconfigured the way the human body was translated into art. Although both artists are primarily remembered as painters, between them they left 7,000 drawings, many of the greatest of which are now in the collection of the Albertina Museum, Vienna.In 2018 an exhibition opens at the Royal Academy in London of both artists' drawings from the Albertina collection, which are very rarely displayed and almost never travel. This stunning publication records these precious works in all their erotic, intriguing and sometimes disturbing beauty. Leading experts on the period provide authoritative texts that illuminate the important relationship between the two artists. They analyze the role of drawing in their practice and chart the response of early 20th-century Vienna to their electrifying work, which still has the power to shock and enthrall to this day.

The Albertina museum in Vienna owns one of the world’s most important collections of Dutch drawings from the period 1430–1650. Their unrivaled collection offers a scope and quality that makes it the one of the few museums in a position to present Dutch drawing in all of its thematic, technical and stylistic diversity. Bosch, Bruegel, Rubens, Rembrandt presents over 150 of the best of these works, and includes outstanding individual specimens from the circles around Jan van Eyck, Petrus Christus and Dirk Bouts. Works by Hieronymus Bosch and Pieter Bruegel the Elder form one of the first highlights of this astounding collection. The rest of the sixteenth century is represented by drawings from artists such as Jan Gossaert, Maarten van Heemskerck and Hendrick Goltzius. The focus of the collection, however, is Holland’s “Golden Age,” the seventeenth century, with important works by Rembrandt van Rijn and his school. The southern Netherlands, once dominated by the House of Hapsburg, is represented by the most famous Flemish masters of the age: Peter Paul Rubens, Anton van Dyck and Jacob Jordaens. Ranging from preparatory drawings for larger works of painting, stained glass, engravings or altars to “autonomous” works that stand alone, this catalogue offers a full spectrum of landscapes, seascapes, topographical views, portraits, rural genre scenes and still lifes.

The innovative technique of clair-obscur woodcuts revolutionized printing in the sixteenth century. From this point onwards the composition was no longer limited to purely black lines, but executed in a wide variety of colors. The artistic development of this new technique is traced through masterworks by Cranach, Burgkmair, Beccafumi and Hendrick Goltzius.

Rainer and the WomenWhen the Albertina in Vienna dedicates a retrospective to Arnulf Rainer to mark his 85th birthday in a year’s time, it will no doubt be a brilliant review of a multi-faceted body of work. Galerie Elisabeth & Klaus Thoman in Innsbruck have already organized an exhibition, however, and are publishing a catalogue to accompany it, with an anthology of Rainer’s work, which has so rarely been assembled and available to view thus far. It features overpainting of photographs dating from the 1960s to today with erotic, sometimes even pornographic subjects. In these works, Arnulf Rainer appears to react very emotionally to the women’s bodies; he blots out, enhances, caricatures, accentuates and sometimes damages the surfaces on which he downright engraves his contributions. Sometimes it appears as if he wants to work his way through to the female partners on the other side of the photographic divide. »The process of this confrontation—and this is demonstrated very well by this anthology—takes very different forms of approach. It varies between elegant lineament, a tactile drawing encompassing and surrounding the body, and overpainting, whereby the flowing and spraying of the paint has clear associations with sexual acts, and sometimes the photographic work is entirely drowned in paint,« writes Peter Weiermair in his introductory text. In contrast, Andrea Madesta, the second author of the book, sometimes takes a critical view of the image of the woman as it emerges to us from the work and from the historically conditioned radical confrontation with values and conventions in the work of Arnulf Rainer.

This book highlights architectural drawings from the Albertina's superb collection and offers new insights into the genre.Since the medium began, artists have used architectural drawings to document the urban and rural past and to envision the future.

From delicately colored Baroque vedute and magnificent Renaissance buildings to Hapsburg palaces and Art Deco structures, these works both document and reflect upon the architects and the artists' visions and hopes for our built environments. With detailed sketches and painters' compositions, this book will fascinate architectural enthusiasts and art lovers alike.

Im Rahmen einer Ausstellung des Papyrus Ebers in der frisch restaurierten Universitatsbibliothek (Albertina) fand am 15. und 16. Marz 2002 ein Kolloquium zur altagyptischen und antiken Heilkunde statt. Die nach seinem Erstbesitzer, dem vornehmlich durch seine historischen Romane bekannt gewordenen Agyptologen Georg Ebers, 1873 benannte Schriftrolle von heute knapp 19 Meter Lange mit ca. 880 Einzeldiagnosen und -rezepten zahlt zu den grossten Handschriften aus dem pharaonischen Agypten, daneben zu den bedeutsamsten medizinischen weltweit. Durch die Beteiligung verschiedener Mediziner, Medizinhistoriker und Agyptologen konnte sich eine lebhafte bis kontroverse Diskussion entspinnen, die erneut das vehemente Interesse auch seitens der praktizierenden modernen Mediziner und Biologen an historischen Entwicklungen ihrer Facher dokumentierte. Mehrere Beitrage der Tagung sind in diesem Band zusammengefasst, erganzt um eine weitere Untersuchung des Herausgebers zu den drei Eingangsspruchen des Papyrus Ebers.

One of the most important artists of the early twentieth century, Egon Schiele (1890–1918) is vastly influential—he ranks among the pioneers of modernism in Austria along with Gustav Klimt and Oskar Kokoschka. To mark the centennial of Schiele’s passing in 1918, the Albertina Museum in Vienna will be a mounting a large-scale exhibition from its extensive holdings of Schiele’s works, and this companion catalog to the exhibition offers a unique overview of Schiele’s development as a draughtsman and watercolorist. Providing a clear picture of Schiele’s stylistic development over the decades, the book reveals his great, overarching theme: human beings’ existential loneliness. Viewed together, these works bear devastating witness to his inability to shake the despair of feeling fundamentally misunderstood. Schiele’s work continues to inspire artists, critics, and collectors today, and this book will offer a beautiful and moving testament to the continued power of his oeuvre.

This book is the catalog to Jim Dine’s (born 1935) exhibition at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, covering four decades of his varied and prodigious output. Over the past years Dine has donated large personal selections of his art to museums across Europe and the US, including the British Museum, the Albertina in Vienna, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. One such gift to the Centre Pompidou, consisting of 24 paintings and sculptures from 1966 to the present, is the subject of this book. Featuring double-page reproductions of each work―covering Dine’s major motifs including his hearts, bathrobes, birds, self-portraits and tools―as well his new 40-page interview with Centre Pompidou director Bernard Blistène (supplemented with archival photos), this book is the most detailed survey to date of one of the most important contemporary artists.
