1000 piece puzzle featuring the artwork of acclaimed New York based contemporary artist Larissa Bates.

This visually rich monograph explores the ceramic practice of Jane Yang D’Haene, whose work bridges memory, material, and identity through clay. Accompanied by immersive photography throughout, the book traces Yang D’Haene’s journey from architecture and interior design to ceramics, revealing an artistic language shaped by Korean heritage, diasporic experience, and deeply personal transformation.

Structured through a series of poetic and critical chapters—including reflections on moon jars, glaze, painting, transition, and studio practice—the book moves between intimate autobiography and broader cultural inquiry. Yang D’Haene writes with lyrical sensitivity about loss, displacement, ritual, and the search for balance between past and present. Her vessels emerge not simply as objects, but as emotional and psychological landscapes that hold both remembrance and reinvention.

Essays by Glenn Adamson and Hyeyoung Cho situate her work within contemporary ceramic discourse, abstraction, and the evolving condition of diasporic identity. Together, the texts illuminate a practice rooted equally in disciplined craftsmanship and conceptual openness.

More than a survey of ceramic works, this book is a meditation on endurance, material memory, and the quiet possibilities of making. Through clay, Yang D’Haene creates a space where Korea and America, grief and beauty, silence and expression coexist in delicate equilibrium.

Edited by Carl Brandon Strehlke and Machtelt Brüggen Israëls, The Bernard and Mary Berenson Collection of European Paintings at I Tatti surveys the 149 works assembled by the Berensons for their home in Florence from the late 1890s through the first decades of the twentieth century at the time that they were making their mark on the world as connoisseurs. The catalogue presents a privileged window on the Berensons’ intellectual interests through the objects they owned. The entries, written by an international team of art historians, take full advantage of the extensive correspondence from the Berensons’ friends, family, and colleagues at I Tatti as well as the couple’s diaries and notations on the backs of their vast gathering of photographs. All the entries are lavishly illustrated with full scholarly and technical accountings of the objects. There are also 17 illustrated reconstructions of the original contexts of panel paintings. The catalogue includes essays on the progress of the Berensons’ collecting, their love for Siena, the Sienese forger Icilio Federico Joni, the critic Roger Fry, and René Piot’s murals at I Tatti, as well as a listing of 94 pictures that were once at I Tatti including donations made to museums in Europe and America.

Gertrude Jekyll was perhaps the most important British garden designer of the 20th century. She famously argued that gardening ought to be considered a Fine Art, highlighting that it becomes a point of honor to be always striving for the best. This volume examines Jekyll’s work at Manor House, Upton Grey in Hampshire, offering an insight into her eclectic, imaginative, and inspiring art. Designed between 1908 and 1909, and once maintained by as many as nine gardeners, the garden fell into disrepair by the second half of the twentieth century, before a full and accurate restoration was carried out in the early 1980s. Gertrude Jekyll: Her Art Restored at Upton Grey presents a visual record of the garden’s plants and layout, with original plans and photographs, as well as beautiful images of the garden taken since its restoration. There is also a fascinating chapter about Miss Jekyll’s discovery, admiration and use of Mediterranean plants. The book succeeds in illustrating exactly why Jekyll was so admired in her lifetime and why she continues to inspire and influence gardeners today. Contents: Introduction Chapter 1: The Garden from 1902 to the Start of its Restoration in 1984 Chapter 2: The Rose Garden Chapter 3: The Dry-Stone Walls Chapter 4: The Main Herbaceous Borders Chapter 5: The Pergola, the Rose Arbour and Surrounding Garden Chapter 6: Miss Gertrude Jekyll’s mediterranean travels and plant discoveries and their use at Upton Grey Chapter 7: The Wild Garden Chapter 8: The Art Completed Also available: The English Garden Through the Twentieth Century ISBN: 9781870673297

Glendalis by photographer Angela Cappetta explores the multi-generational story of a family living in a pre-gentrified Stanton Street tenement. Through protagonist Glendalis, the youngest family member and messenger, Cappetta reflects on her own upbringing within a bustling, complex family.

As a Gen X child in New York, Cappetta juxtaposes the apparent serenity captured in the photographs with the harsh realities of urban life—crime, incarceration, and community trauma. The book offers a candid glimpse into the cultural fabric of the Lower East Side, portraying intimate family moments alongside the challenges they face.

Embedded deeply in the project, Cappetta contemplates the evolving nature of relationships and the solitary path of a documentary photographer. Glendalis is a poignant narrative of familial bonds, community resilience, and the profound impact of personal history on both artist and subject.

The highly anticipated monograph of acclaimed artist Refik Anadol

Refik Anadol is one of the most influential digital artists of our time—the painter of post‑digital life. From his Refik Anadol Studio in Los Angeles, he creates new artistic forms at the intersection of data, artificial intelligence, and human imagination. His hypnotic data sculptures, AI‑generated visuals, and immersive installations make the invisible visible: the rhythms of cities, the flows of information, and the poetry of a world in motion.

For Anadol, artificial intelligence is not just a tool but a creative partner. Working with massive datasets and live data streams, he builds dynamic works that are constantly evolving. In the tension between digital and physical space, his art invites us to experience data as image, memory, and imagination.

With contributions by Michel Dewilde, Paul Robbrecht & Olivier Salens, and Refik Anadol.

This publication accompanies the exhibition Refik Anadol – Latent City, from 8 May to 8 November 2026 at BRUSK in Bruges.

The America’s Cup has been the world’s most prestigious yacht race for over 170 years. This beautifully illustrated and fully updated new edition tells the story of the cup from its inception through to the most recent race, held in 2024.

Named in 1851 in honor of the first winner (New York pilot, ‘America’), the Cup was dominated by American yachts for well over a century. At last, in 1983, Australia II wrestled the trophy away from the USA, albeit briefly. At Barcelona in 2024, the Cup produced one of the best contests yet, with the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron winning the race for a fifth time, and a British yacht, Britannia, competing in the finals for the first time in 60 years.

With a painting of each race since 1851, by marine artist Tim Thompson, and detailed descriptions of the boats involved, The Story of the America’s Cup 1851-2024 is an elegant, insightful celebration of a storied contest.

Published to coincide with the exhibition at Kettle’s Yard, Christopher Wood: In Love offers an intimate and revelatory encounter with one of Britain’s most compelling modern artists. Drawing on new research and previously unpublished works from private collections, the book traces Wood’s brief yet incandescent career through the relationships, places and creative exchanges that shaped his art. Structured in a series of thematic ‘acts’, it moves from London and Paris to the Mediterranean and Brittany, weaving together painting, drawing, stage design and archival material to illuminate Wood’s passionate devotion to both art and life. Six newly commissioned essays explore questions of love, performance and sexuality in the early twentieth century, situating Wood within an international avant‑garde network that included Jean Cocteau, Serge Diaghilev and the Ballets Russes. Beautifully designed and richly illustrated, this publication is an essential contribution to Christopher Wood scholarship and a vital companion to a vibrant moment in British modernism.
