A career-spanning survey of the influential modernist photographerIn 1985, the National Museum of Luxembourg unexpectedly received a generous bequest from the estate of the world-renowned Luxembourg-born American photographer Edward Steichen (1879-1973). The bequest comprised a total of 178 prints, 175 of which were by Steichen himself. These prints cover all aspects of his photographic oeuvre--from the pictorialist images of his early years to the portraiture, fashion, advertising, landscapes and family photographs of his late career.Edward Steichen: The Luxembourg Bequest presents this extraordinary collection in a comprehensive and scholarly treatment for the first time. Replete with full-page illustrations of all 178 photographs, the publication includes six new essays by five authors that examine the provenance and historical significance of the Luxembourg donation, as well as Steichen's special role as a transmitter of modernism from Europe to America.

Ingenious sculptural takes on idiomatic language from a leading Brazilian artistFor his installation at the Brazilian pavilion at the 59th Venice Biennale (2022), Jonathas de Andrade (born 1982) draws on idiomatic expressions using metaphors of the body to develop a series of two- and three-dimensional works that render tangible the poetry of these expressions. For example, two immense ears placed at the entrance and exit of the pavilion allow the public to "go in one ear and out the other," while an inflatable balloon, which invades the space at various times of the day, alludes to a "heart coming out of the mouth." The emphasis on the body, especially the body of the man from the Brazilian Northeast, is also characteristic of several of the artist's earlier works featured in this book, which also includes essays by the publication's editor Jacopo Crivelli Visconti, and Clarissa Diniz.
