145 days. 17 countries. 1 road trip. 40,000 km traveled. Many people met. Peaks of Europe is not a traditional landscape photography book. It's the result of a 5-month adventure across 17 countries told through the lens of a European travel photographer who took 29 years to finally explore the continent on which in he was born. The book has been designed for a specific purpose: telling the story of a 5-month road trip and what it takes to be living out of a car for several months, with all the good and bad moments. For this project, Johan Lolos wasn't just documenting the landscapes. This book features a series of photos with a focus on the storytelling as much as the imagery. At the end, the people he met were what he remembered most. More than 250 pages featuring 200+ photos, many of which are previously unpublished, take you through three major regions of Europe: the North, the Balkans and the Alps. From the Arctic island of Spitsbergen in the Svalbard archipelago, to Greece's largest island where Lolos walked in the footsteps of his ancestors in Crete, Peaks of Europe showcases the large variety of landscapes that makes Europe so diverse and unique. As a travel photographer with a fascination for human interactions, Lolos has also tried to portray different cultures through all the people he met during his journey.

• Nine walks to discover the multiple aspects of architectural Art Nouveau in Brussels • Including maps, places to visit, information about guided tours and notes • From Victor Horta, in an organic style to Paul Hankar, in a more geometrical tendency (Re)discover Art Nouveau at the heart of Brussels. At the end of the 19th century, the anti-academic movement pushed Brussels' architects towards Art Nouveau. Both Victor Horta, in an organic style, and Paul Hankar, in a more geometrical tendency, created an architecture that quickly gained an international reputation. In a little more than a decade, from 1893 on, hundreds of Art Nouveau-fashioned buildings appeared in Brussels, elaborated first by the great pioneers and later by their students and imitators who are also influenced by the Vienna Secession and other trends of European Art Nouveau. At first, this style fulfilled industrial bourgeoisie's dreams, yearning to assert itself in the city's structure through this new, and sometimes exuberant, architecture. This book offers nine walks to discover - in different districts - the multiple aspects of architectural Art Nouveau in Brussels. Witness the personal style of the most important architects as well as decorative methods such as sgraffito. Through interviews with owners, custodians and restorers of Art Nouveau-styled buildings, Brussels Art Nouveau describes the fundamental guardians of this remarkable heritage.

•Accompanies an exhibition in Brussels at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts from 5 October 2018 to 27 January 27 2019 •Explores the urban upheavals and politicized artistic milieu of Berlin between 1912 and 1932 •Includes work by major artists of the period, including Ten, Rodchenko, Malevich, Kirschner, Grosz, and Hausman. Berlin, a cosmopolitan hotspot and the capital of the first German democracy, was synonymous with artistic pluralism during the interwar years. In Berlin, located at a crossroads between East and West, art was closely linked to an everyday reality that was marked by crisis, social change, and decadence. It was a city where artists often painted a gloomy reality, despite the hope of renewal and a desire for peace after the First World War. Focusing on Berlin as a vibrant cultural metropolis, this book pays special attention to the social changes and utopian ideals of the period between 1912 and 1932: the New Man, the New Woman, the New Objectivity, the New Building, and the New Vision. Through paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographs and films by artists such as Otto Ten, Raul Hausmann, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Kazimir Malevich, and Alexander Rodchenko, the key creative minds of this striking period come to life.
