Silver Allison 20th Century Travel: 100 Years of Globe-Trotting Ads
The metabolism of travel changed more in the last century than in the previous half-millennium, a stunning transformation triggered by American wanderlust. In less than 100 years, the U.S. mass-produced the automobile, invented airplanes, freeways, motels, even sent men to the Moon. Travel grew ever faster and easier. Above all, it was democratized - enabling millions to explore distant lands, or see their own more fully. At the start of the 20th century, only people with extensive disposable income and time to spare could enjoy leisure travel. By the century's end, journeys took hours, not days, and mass travel - especially brief air flights - became the new normal. Along the way, ocean liners broke speed records, aerodynamic trains roared down the tracks, stylish boat-plane clippers evolved into jumbo jets. Whether aboard high-speed locomotives or ships, jets, or Greyhound buses - or when setting their own schedule on the open road - Americans demanded ever greater mobility and wider choice of destinations, thereby setting a new standard for travelers around the world. A lush visual history of international wanderlust, this volume features 400-plus print advertisements from the Jim Heimann Collection, that illustrate the evolution of leisure travel - from domestic to global, exclusive to popular, exotic to standardized - and its crucial role in American culture. With an introduction, decade-by-decade analysis, and an illustrated timeline, this book highlights the cultural and technological developments that transformed travel from a cushioned journey of the elite into a convenient leisure pastime for the general public. 20th Century Travel takes us on a grand tour of travel's golden age. Multilingual Edition: English, French, German.

Jim Heimann. 20th-Century Fashion, 100 Years of Apparel Ads
То, как мы носили: история современной моды от кутюр до массового рынка. В 20-м веке мода превратилась из эксклюзивного парижского салонного бизнеса, обслуживающего богатую элиту, в глобальную индустрию, в которой работают миллионы, с новыми тенденциями, ворвавшимися в магазины до того, как последняя модель покинул подиум. Попутно характерные силуэты каждой эпохи эволюционировали до неузнаваемости. Что касается женщин, то кринолины Дома Уорт уступили место косым платьям Вионне, New Look от Dior — образу Chelsea Look, белый костюм Halston — джинсам с низкой посадкой Frankie B. В мужской одежде готовые костюмы сигнализировали об упадке индивидуального пошива задолго до того, как на передний план вышли гавайские рубашки или узкие джинсы.«Мода 20-го века» предлагает ретроспективу последних столетий стиля с помощью 400 модных рекламных объявлений из коллекции Джима Хейманна. На изображениях прослеживаются не только меняющиеся тенденции, но и эволюция их маркетинга и аудитории по мере того, как мода десятилетие за десятилетием внедрялась в популярную культуру и массовый рынок. Подробное введение и иллюстрированная временная шкала подробно рассказывают о создателях стиля и законодателях моды, а также о том, как исторические события, дизайнерские дома, розничные продавцы, фильмы, журналы и знаменитости повлияли на то, как мы одевались тогда и сейчас.The way we wore: The story of modern fashion from couture to mass market The 20th century saw fashion evolve from an exclusive Parisian salon business catering to a wealthy elite into a global industry employing millions, with new trends whisked into stores before the last model has left the catwalk.

Art of the 20th Century
Who could possibly have forecast on New Year's Eve 1899 that, one hundred years later, painting and sculpture would be only options, not prerequisites? The term "art" has been defined and redefined so many times over the last 100 years that it has gained entirely new social, political, and technological meanings. Ranging across the full spectrum of disciplines available, including photography and new media, and thematically chaptered to highlight relationships between works and movements, this readable and encyclopaedic masterwork does just what it says on the cover. Whether you want Surrealism or Land Art, Fluxus or Bauhaus, this is your be-all, end-all guide to art of the 20th century. An undertaking as immensely ambitious as this one deserves to be owned by everyone, which is why we decided to make a special, more compact edition of this two-volume classic in celebration of our 25th anniversary. About the editor: Ingo F. Walther (1940-2007) was born in Berlin and studied medieval studies, literature, and art history in Frankfurt am Main and Munich. He has published numerous books on the art of the Middle Ages and of the 19th and 20th centuries. Walther's many titles for TASCHEN include Picasso, Art of the 20th Century, and Codices Illustres. Издание на английском языке.
