For many years respected gallerists Peter MacGill, Rudolf Kicken and Edwynn Houk have been collecting Aleksandr Rodchenko’s photographs. This book is a curated selection of these images, mostly reproduced at their original sizes. The hallmarks of Rodchenko’s inimitable Constructivist-influenced vision are here to see, regardless of whether he is photographing people, architecture or machinery: bold diagonals, abstract shapes and moving objects cutting through space. Aleksandr Rodchenko (1891–1956) was an influential Russian photographer, painter, sculptor and graphic designer. He negotiated multiple styles and movements including Constructivism and Dadaism to arrive at a reduced style which he exerted across diverse media. In addition to his work as a visual artist, Rodchenko was an influential museum director and curator.

Dom Pierre Pérignon tells the story of the world's most luxurious champagne, tracing its circuitous history across four centuries, arranged in three chapters--one each for the seventeenth, eighteenth and twentieth centuries. Beautifully produced, in keeping with its subject, this page-turning luxury object unravels the myth of Dom Pérignon champagne, beginning with its namesake--the pioneering Benedictine Monk Dom Pierre Pérignon--who set out to create the best wine in the world. Offering glimpses of the champagne-infused hedonism of Louis XV's court at Versailles, Marilyn Monroe's glamorous affiliation with the beverage and Karl Lagerfeld's recent advertising campaign for the brand, this volume incorporates a spectrum of artifacts, including texts, drawings, paintings, photographs and film stills from artists and writers such as François Boucher, Denis Diderot and Jonathan Swift.

This is Lagerfeld's own album of the photographic stories and sequences that he has created over the last eight years. Shot in black and white, often with models and costumes, his photos are at once beautifully composed, stylish, sensuous, literate and full of fantasy.

By embracing intuition and chance, the creators employed unconventional techniques, resulting in a book that embodies "printed anarchy" and challenges established printing norms.
