Book Description
Essential for the artist, architect, or anyone interested in the nature and construction of art studios, this book includes detailed yet easy to understand how-to guides for artists seeking to build a high quality studio of their own. This unique exploration into the design of art studios-ranging from the workspaces of the Old Masters, through the nineteenth century academies, to the most high tech visual arts spaces on earth today-delves beneath the paint-spattered surfaces to reveal key architectural principles that optimize the successful art studio. Technical criteria for architects designing large studio arts facilities are published here for the first time. Safety and health guidelines and typical equipment lists are provided for each studio type, explained through photographs, architectural plans and programming criteria tables. "Here, for the first time, is an opinionated yet empathetic look at the architectural workings of some of the world's best studios. ATELIÉR reveals the power of architecture to energize human creativity so convincingly, it's hard to believe this book's topic has been overlooked for so long. No interior decorating book, this is a serious architectural study that uncovers the practical and psychological secrets at the core of a great studio-and shows you how and why they work."David Dalton, author of Pop: The Genius of Andy Warhol"ATELIÉR: Building the Visual Arts Studios of the 21st Century gives us an insider's look into the private spaces where artists work. It's a privileged insight and Tony Winters is our personal architect and guru, as he guides the reader from pre-historic caves to the most sophisticated art buildings in the world today. Winters deconstructs art studios and shares an architect's useful tips and secrets with his readers."Mark Wakely, executive producer, The Comfort Zone, ABC Radio National, twice recipient of award for excellence in architectural journalism from the Royal Australian Institute of Architects"This is a rare look into artist studios that touches upon art, architecture, history, and the use of light and space. I think this would be of great interest to people designing and building studios, and ways to configure existing spaces."Brandon Soloff, artist and owner of the teaching atelier Chelsea Classical Studio

Book Description
Want to paint more like Manet and less like Jackson Pollock? Students of art hailed Classical Drawing Atelier, Juliette Aristides’s first book, as a dynamic return to the atelier educational model. Ateliers, popular in the nineteenth century, teach emerging artists by pairing them with a master artist over a period of years. The educational process begins as students copy masterworks, then gradually progress to painting as their skills develop. The many artists at every level who learned from Classical Drawing Atelier have been clamoring for more of this sophisticated approach to teaching and learning. In Classical Painting Atelier, Aristides, a leader in the atelier movement, takes students step-by-step through the finest works of Old Masters and today’s most respected realist artists to reveal the principles of creating full-color realist still lifes, portraits, and figure paintings. Rich in tradition, yet practical for today’s artists, Classical Painting Atelier is ideal for serious art students seeking a timeless visual education.

Book Description
Annette Schemmel provides a highly illuminating case study of the major actors, discourses and paradigm that shaped the history of visual arts in Cameroon during the second part of the 20th century. Her book meticulously reconstructs the multiple ways of artistic knowledge acquisition - from the consolidation of the "Système de Grands Frères" in the 1970s to the emergence of more discursively oriented small artists' initiatives which responded to the growing NGO market of social practice art opportunities in the 2000s. Based on archival research, participant observation and in depth interviews with art practitioners in Douala and Yaoundé, this study is a must read for everyone who wants to better understand the vibrant artistic scenes in countries like Cameroon, which until today lack a proper state-funded infrastructure in the arts.

Book Description
This book makes a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary argument for investing in effective early childhood education programs, especially those that develop in children their proven natural capacity to construct knowledge by building meaningful relationships. Recent insights in the fields of law, policy, economics, pedagogy, and neuroscience demonstrate that these particular programs produce robust educational, social, and economic benefits for children and for the country. The book also provides legal and political strategies for achieving these proven benefits as well as pedagogical strategies for developing the most effective early childhood education programs. The book concludes by making visible the wonderful learning that can take place in an early education environment where teachers are afforded the professional judgment to encourage children to construct their own knowledge through indispensable learning relationships.

Book Description
This collection reconsiders the life and work of Emile Jean-Horace Vernet (1789-1863), presenting him as a crucial figure for understanding the visual culture of modernity. The book includes work by senior and emerging scholars, showing that Vernet was a multifaceted artist who moved with ease across the thresholds of genre and media to cultivate an image of himself as the embodiment of modern France. In tune with his times, skilled at using modern technologies of visual reproduction to advance his reputation, Vernet appealed to patrons from across the political spectrum and made works that nineteenth-century audiences adored. Even Baudelaire, who reviled Vernet and his art and whose judgment has played a significant role in consigning Vernet to art-historical obscurity, acknowledged that the artist was the most complete representative of his age. For those with an interest in the intersection of art and modern media, politics, imperialism, and fashion, the essays in this volume offer a rich reward.
