Norman Mailer. MoonFire. Ausgabe zum 50. Jahrestag (Deutsch Ausgabe)
„Der Adler ist gelandet“
50 Jahre Mondlandung – Mailers Moonfire neu aufgelegtEr gilt als der wichtigste historische Augenblick des 20. Jahrhunderts: Am 20. Juli 1969 lösten Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin und Michael Collins ein Versprechen ein, das John F. Kennedy 1961 vor dem Kongress in Washington abgegeben hatte – noch vor dem Ende des Jahrzehnts einen Amerikaner auf dem Mond landen zu lassen. Jahre fieberhafter Arbeit, ein Stab von 400.000 Ingenieuren und Wissenschaftlern, ein Etat von 24 Milliarden Dollar und die gewaltigste Rakete, die je auf Erden gezündet worden war, ermöglichten schließlich ein noch nie da gewesenes Schauspiel, das von Millionen Menschen auf der ganzen Welt gebannt verfolgt wurde. Und niemand erzählte dieses spektakuläre Abenteuer besser als Norman Mailer.
Als Großmeister der literarischen Reportage war Norman Mailer von der Zeitschrift LIFE beauftragt worden, über den Flug zum Mond in einer dreiteiligen Essayserie zu berichten – für ein dem Anlass angemessen fürstliches Honorar. Mailer, der über einen elektronischen Schaltkreis genauso packend schreiben konnte wie über die gesellschaftlichen Hintergründe eines Ereignisses und die Psychologie der beteiligten Akteure (die eigenen Befindlichkeiten stets eingeschlossen), gelang mit Auf dem Mond ein Feuer ein furioses Meisterwerk, das brillante Porträt einer Epoche, ihrer Obsessionen und ihres größten Spektakels.
Illustriert wird diese Jubiläumsausgabe von Moonfire mit Hunderten von Fotografien und Plänen aus dem Fundus der NASA, aus Zeitschriftenarchiven und Privatsammlungen. Das Vorwort schrieb der Schriftsteller Colum McCann, führende Apollo-11-Experten steuerten die Bildlegenden bei, die die Geschichten hinter den Bildern erzählen und technische Details erläutern.

Pascal Magis
Pascal Magis, born in 1955, he lives and works in France. Abstract Variations. Graduating from the Academy of Fine Arts in 1976 under the name of Cartonnier-Lissier, Pascal Magis spent many years designing tapestry, through which he earned a reputation. In 1984 he decided to return to his first love: painting. In his abstract compositions raw colours dominate. Red, blue and yellow intermingle, leaping from the heart of the canvas, drawn along by the artist’s powerful strokes. Movement, energetic strokes and a lively palette characterise Pascal Magis’ work, which is now famous around the world.

Paul , Collector’s Edition (No. 101–700) Taschen
A personal portrait of Paul McCartney by Harry Benson
Harry Benson began photographing the young Paul McCartney in 1964, a pivotal year for the Beatles when they took America by storm, toured the world, and made their movie debut with A Hard Day’s Night—all documented by the affable Scotsman. And when the Fab Four called it quits, it was Benson who was afforded intimate access to Paul and wife Linda, as Paul forged a new path creatively and personally.
Through Benson’s lens, Paul traces the evolution of its namesake as an icon, performer, and a devoted family man. We follow the musician at the height of his fame with the Beatles; in the recording studio with Linda and their band, Wings; with the family; behind the scenes and on stage during the 1975–76 “Wings Over America” tour; dancing the night away at a star-studded party on the Queen Mary to celebrate the band’s newest album; and with Linda on the couple’s farm in the U.K. in the early 1990s—a fittingly soft landing after so many years of flying high.
Featuring more than 100 color and black-and-white images by the legendary photojournalist, many never seen before, this collection is a window onto a one-of-a-kind artist, one who has remained somewhat enigmatic despite nearly a lifetime of being in the limelight.

Every item illuminates a different aspect within the designer’s work and leads to discussions on subjects as varied as the formality of a suit, the importance of teamwork, and the power of humor – providing colorful, candid insight into one of the most creative minds working in design today.

Peter Lindbergh On Fashion Photography Taschen
When German photographer Peter Lindbergh shot five young models in downtown New York City in 1989, he produced not only the iconic British Vogue January 1990 cover but also the birth certificate of the supermodels. The image didn’t just bring revered faces together for the first time; it marked the beginning of a new fashion era and a new understanding of female beauty.
Coinciding with his major retrospective at the Kunsthal in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, this book gathers more than 400 images from four decades of Lindbergh’s photography to celebrate his unique and game changing storytelling. Raw and seductive at once, his trademark monochrome pictures are marked by a romantic and narrative vision which brought a new vision and artistry to the art and fashion world.

Piano Complete Works 1966–Today Taschen
Renzo Piano rose to international prominence with his co-design of the Pompidou Center in Paris, described by The New York Times as a building that “turned the architecture world upside down.” Since then, he has continued to craft such iconic cultural spaces as the Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago and, more recently, the Whitney Museum of American Art, an asymmetric nine-story structure in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District with both indoor and outdoor galleries. In London, the Piano touch has also transformed the skyline with the Shard.
At the age of 84, the Italian maestro retains all of his enthusiasm and kindness—and his recent roster is more impressive than ever. As he confided to the author, “I think at a certain age, one can discover that there is what the French call the ‘fil rouge,’ a kind of red thread that relates one building to another over time. In my case, I believe it is about lightness and the art of building.” From freshly built museums in Athens and Santander; ongoing works in Lisbon, London, Toronto, and Geneva; to such humanitarian projects as the Emergency Children’s Surgical Hospital in Entebbe, Uganda, and the Children’s Hospice in Bologna, Italy, Piano’s career is a thrilling journey through the beauty and very essence of architecture.
Based on the massive XXL monograph, this widely updated edition brings the architect’s definitive career overview to an accessible format and is illustrated by photographs, sketches, and plans.

PORSCHE MILESTONES
What an incredible milestone in the history of the sports car: in spring 2017, the Porsche 911 was made a millionaire. That is the number of models emblazoned with the legendary “9-1-1” produced by Porsche since 1963. What is the definition of the 911, of a Porsche?—the language of form and technical expertise. It is the ultimate sports car. Throughout the generations, every single 911 has fascinated owners and spectators alike. Even when a particular 911 series does not resemble its predecessor, the form, sound, and performance remain inspirational—the emotions are always on board! Dreams come alive, and not just for the guys. A Porsche driver is endowed with taste, technical prowess, a vision of the future, and the trappings of material success. The 356 laid the foundation for the myth of the Porsche, and it also formed the basis for models like the American Roadster, the 550, and the 718 RS 60 Spyder. Loyal companions include family members like the Boxster, Cayman, Panamera, Macan, and even the Cayenne. Out of the running, though unforgotten, are Porsche models like the 924, 944, or even 928. Motor racing cultivated the myth from 1951 until today. Decades later the names 904, 917, 962, and currently, the 919 Hybrid, are still legends.

Rainer W. Schlegelmilch. Porsche Racing Moments
Life in the fastest lane
25 years of Porsche Racing through the lens of Rainer W. SchlegelmilchIn 1962, Rainer W. Schlegelmilch had his first experience of motorsport – the 1,000 km at the Nürburgring – and it was this that sparked a lifelong passion for both Porsche and racing that still burns today.
Beginning in 1963, this wholly captivating collection of breathtaking shots transports you to another time and another world, taking you on a journey through the history of Porsche endurance racing, from Le Mans to Monza, via the Targa Florio and Spa-Francorchamps. And with his own words accompanying the pictures, Schlegelmilch shows and tells fascinating stories from track and trackside.
Naturally, the cars are the heroes of this book – there’s a genuine love of Porsche cars on these pages, a real admiration in pictures for each evolution of the legendary designs. From the purpose-built prototypes of the mid-60s – the 550, 718, RS and RSK models – followed by the more powerful 907 and 908, and through to arguably the most iconic racing car designs of all time, the 917, the 962 and of course the ageless 911, this is Schlegelmilch’s pictorial love letter to his own “Porsche Racing Moments”.

Rembrandt. The Complete Paintings Taschen
Rembrandt’s complete painted oeuvre
The Dutch Golden Age’s genius in XL resolutionThe Dutch Golden Age of painting spawned some of history’s greatest artists and artisans, but few can boast the genius and legacy of Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn (1606–1669). Despite never leaving his native Netherlands, Rembrandt projected his oeuvre past the boundaries of his own experience, producing some of art’s most diverse and impactful works across portraiture, biblical, allegorical, landscape, and genre scenes. In all their forms, Rembrandt’s paintings are built of intricacies—the totality of each subtle facial wrinkle, gaze, or figure amounting to an emotional force that stands unmatched among his contemporaries and artistic progeny alike.
Each work is imbued with feeling. Biblical scenes, like Bathsheba at her Bath, become vehicles for meditations on human longing, probing depths beyond that which is canonized in scripture or depicted in other representations. His portraits, be them of wealthy patrons or tradesmen, communicate the essence of an individual through fine demarcations, their faces bathed in an ethereal light against darkened earthtones. Perhaps most striking, his series of self-portraits is a triumph of the medium; beginning in his youth and spanning until a year prior to his death, Rembrandt’s self portraiture is an intimate glimpse into his lifelong process of self-reflection.
This XL monograph compiles all 330 of Rembrandt’s paintings in stunning reproductions. From Belshazzar’s Feast to The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp, we discover Rembrandt’s painted oeuvre like never before.

Remote Experiences. Extraordinary Travel Adventures from North to South Taschen
Travel adventures from north to south
Remote Experiences is the visual account of the extraordinary journeys of photographer David De Vleeschauwer through the world’s most uncharted territories. In pursuit of the best of travel, he has been passionately exploring the world for more than two decades. Focused on 12 unexpected destinations, it wanders from north to south, with the ease of well-seasoned explorers. Its photographic reportage brings to life an eclectic collection of memories. He ventures to paradise-like, off-the-radar forgotten kingdoms with ancient Buddhist outposts in the foothills of the Himalayas and traces the footsteps of pilgrims and sheepherds in Italy. From the plains of Botswana to the outer realms of Antarctica aboard a superyacht icebreaker, this unique guide outlines its own geography of the world. Along the way, we meet individuals, landscapes and even vessels that become the serendipitous heroes of these wondrous adventures. De Vleeschauwer’s shared experiences depict a world where the foreign becomes familiar, the isolated accessible. In our digital, overly consumptive age people want a true sense of place, which might be rugged, refined, or rural.
Complete with travel accounts and detailed descriptions of trips that range in price from an affordable 250 euros to an ambitious one million euros, Remote Experiences takes its readers on an unforgettable voyage to those overlooked or sometimes forgotten spaces “where time stands still”, encouraging us to do just that—until we take to the road again…
