Textile printing is a decorative art form used for both interior decoration and clothing. The varieties of motif often reflect a given periods collective taste and zeitgeist. Up until the end of the eighteenth century, designs still derived mainly from the original Indian floral motifs, but the industrial revolution signaled major changes to this. A great diversity can also be seen in contemporary fashion, ever-dependent on trends.Various designers and fashion houses have even made prints their trademark, including Emilio Pucci, Dries Van Noten, Hermès and Leonard. This publication illustrates different aspects and phases concerning the use of textile motifs and has been produced in association with the exhibition of the same name at the Hasselt Fashion Museum.

Erwin Olaf s art visualizes implicitly the unspoken, the overlooked, that typically resists easy documentation. Olaf s trademark is to address social issues, taboos, and bourgeois conventions in a highly stylized and cunning mode of image making. Alongside new and unpublished work, this book shows an overview of all the personal work that Olaf made during the past 25 years.

For twenty years Marc Lagranges photos have been a tribute to beauty. With this fourth book, Lido Publishers presents a survey of the career of this Antwerp photographer. Ever since the 1980s, the decade in which Lagrange dedicated himself for good to photography, he has created intriguing portraits and nudes of his muses, elusive femmes fatales full of secrets and fantasies, with an underlying decadent impulse. Lagranges penchant for touching can be seen in the series And God create Women, which portraits female and even male nudes.

Here the Belgian designer and artist presents a wide array of his output, characteristic for its surrealistic undertone and distinctive craftsmanship, balanced between art and fashion. Coppens has collaborated with Grace Jones, Roísín Murphy, Rihanna and Issey Miyake, to name a few, and shows couture collections in Paris and Tokyo. In two volumes, Home and Work , the collection ranges from Polaroid photographs, strange taxidermy and biographical musings on everyday domesticity in the former to runway shows, whimsical accessories and glossy editorials in the latter. His fascination with the world of animals and their representation is readily apparent.

Mixing photojournalism with highly stylized studio photography, Erwin Olaf emerged on the international art scene in 1988, when his series Chessmen was awarded the first prize in the Young European Photographer competition. This award was followed by an exhibition at the Ludwig Museum in Cologne, Germany, in the same year. From early on, Olaf committed himself to uneasy issues of class, race, sex and religious belief. Noirish and steeped in 1950s Americana, his style has been embraced by the advertising world, leading to worldwide campaigns for Diesel Jeans and Heineken (which won him the coveted Silver Lion at the Cannes Lions Festival for Advertising). Outside of his commercial work, in recent series such as Rain (2004), Hope (2005), Grief (2007) and Fall (2008), Olaf subverts ideals of domestic bliss, while Dusk (2009) and Dawn (2010) show how culture can become repression. A similar disengagement takes place in the Hotel series (2010), in which he explores a range of melancholic emotions in dimly lit, exquisitely furnished 1950s hotel rooms. Alongside new and unpublished work, this book-now in its second printing-shows an overview of all the personal (non-commercial) work that Olaf has made over the past 25 years. It includes essays by Natacha Wolinski and Christoph Ruys and an interview with the photographer. Erwin Olaf was born in the Netherlands in 1959. His work in photography, fashion and film has won him numerous awards and commissions. In 2010 Louis Vuitton commissioned Olaf for a portrait series in collaboration with the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam. He also won numerous other international art and media prizes, such as Photographer of the Year in the International Color Awards in 2006, and Kunstbeeld magazine's Artist of the Year of the Netherlands in 2007. Among his recent monographs are Erwin Olaf (Aperture) and Vite Private (Contrasto).
