This volume recounts the story of an architectural, environmental, and technological adventure. It details the challenges posed by creating the newest addition to the Parisian skyline—a building that was conceived by Frank Gehry as the Fondation Louis Vuitton’s premier work of art. Inspired by the new cultural institution, the book’s carefully sequenced chapters reflect each episode in the series of challenges that arose. A work of reference on the process of designing and building the Fondation, the book offers solutions for architecture professionals while simultaneously remaining accessible and pertinent to the general reader. Featuring interviews with leading architects such as Frank Gehry and Paul Chemetov, technical explanations by the engineers who designed the building, historical essays, and a flash code to additional online content, the book also includes a diverse range of illustrations—from the Jardin d’Acclimation’s archival drawings, to ground plans, elevations, spectacular views of the construction site, and 3-D simulations, as well as formal portraits of the construction workers by Charles Fréger. Together, the rich ensemble of elements demonstrates the vibrant atmosphere of this creative laboratory. The volume unveils itself little by little, just like Frank Gehry’s edifice itself, revealing surprise after surprise in accordance with an unwavering, strong, and coherence design principle.

After celebrating its twentieth anniversary with three blockbuster exhibitions in 2017, the Fondation Beyeler is starting the year 2018 with Georg Baselitz―without a doubt one of the most influential painters and sculptors of our time―is celebrating his eightieth birthday, and the Foundation is devoting an extensive retrospective to this provocateur. Many of Baselitz’s most important paintings and sculptures from the past six decades will be seen together for the first time. By displaying key works together, on an equal footing, it becomes easier to perceive the unique wealth of his formal and contextual innovations. Leafing through more than two hundred richly illustrated pages, the reader encounters the beautiful, the ugly, the ambiguous, and the disturbing.

Published on the occasion of the inaugural exhibition at the Louis Vuitton Foundation, designed by Frank Gehry, this elegant volume undertakes an in-depth look at the process of design and realisation of the Foundations new premises in Paris. Edited by Frédéric Migayrou, it is filled with sketches, models, drawings, historical documents, comparative material, and photographs which together follow the project from its early stages of conception to groundbreaking and completion and presents a remarkable and complete narrative of one of Gehrys most recent achievements. Includes an interview with the architect, plus contributions from several noted critics.

Alberto Giacometti’s works – his apparently enraptured, ascetic-looking sculptures – are unmistakable. The artist himself is considered to be one of the most idiosyncratic and original sculptors of the twentieth century, and today he is also one of the most expensive. This volume presents the Swiss artist with some 100 outstanding works.

Lorsque Yasumasa Morimura voit pour la première fois La Leçon d'anatomie du Dr Nicolas Tulp de Rembrandt, il est frappé par la ressemblance des visages des neuf personnages qui composent le tableau, au point qu'il se demande s'il ne s'agit pas d'une seule et même personne. Prenant pour point de départ cette première impression, l'artiste réalise à son tour une uvre intitulé 9 visages, où il substitue son visage à celui des personnages du tableau.

"Painting is the passage from the chaos of the emotions to the order of the possible." –BalthusOne of the last great 20th-century masters, Balthus pursued a path that ran exactly contrary to that of the modernist avant-gardes with which he was contemporary. At once quiet and intriguing, his paintings unite colliding contrasts, combining reality and dream, eroticism and innocence, practicality and mystery, the familiar and the uncanny in unique ways.This volume, published for a retrospective at the Fondation Beyeler, gathers around 50 key paintings from all phases of this legendary artist's career. It commences with the monumental masterpiece Passage du Commerce-Saint-André (1952–54), in which Balthus' intensive study of the dimensions of space and time and their relationship to figure and object is especially apparent.Balthasar Klossowski de Rola, known as Balthus (1908–2001), was born in Paris to Polish expatriate parents. He was raised in an exceptionally artistic milieu, with visitors to his household including Rilke (who became his mother's lover), André Gide, Jean Cocteau, Maurice Denis and Pierre Bonnard. Balthus was one of the few living artists to be represented in the Louvre, when his painting The Children (1937) was acquired from the private collection of Pablo Picasso.
