Andy Warhol's continuous pursuit of ideal beauty--visible in a body of his work that is brought here together for the first time.

Andy Warhol is arguably one of the most widely known and discussed artists of the twentieth century. While his depictions of consumer products and celebrities led him to become household famous, there is a red thread throughout his career, starting even in the late forties until his untimely death in 1987. In the eighties Warhol was continuously searching to visualize an ideal of beauty, male beauty, finding form and creating lasting images of what he desired. He visualized and therefore eternalized this continuous pursuit of ideal beauty.
From the early line and blotted line drawings to his screen tests and moving image experiments in the sixties, the torso paintings in the seventies through his collaborations with Jean-Michel Basquiat, there is a continuous search to express an ideal of male beauty. During his lifetime these works were either considered inappropriate, immoral, deviant or even pornographic and therefore illegal. Many of these works never received the public exposure and recognition that they deserve. Neue Nationalgalerie is for the first time putting together a large survey focusing on this thematic and central aspect throughout Warhol's different production phases and stages of career. This publication offers an insight into a Warhol, that during his lifetime never had a real "coming-out".
Warhol died in 1987 at the age of only 58. He left behind an incredibly complex and influential body of work, which during his lifetime never experienced the open acceptance that we now have to look at these specific bodies of work.

An undead orc knight leaves battle behind for a new kind of afterlife--one with good food, good friends, and maybe even fatherhood.

Rottgor is worn out. Literally. Barely held together by dark magic, he has protected the necropolis for centuries. When he's forced into retirement, he's faced with a new challenge: to forge a future guided not by obligation, but by passion.

Following his heart (and stomach), he decides to open a restaurant where the city's undead and living residents can share food and community. He's helped in his quest by an unlikely assortment of neighbors, including elves, skeletons, vampires--and a young orphan girl named Astra, whose ancestry, if discovered, could put her and the entire necropolis in danger.

As comforting as warm pumpkin bread, this gentle fantasy traces how even a dark history can rise into a bright future.

He's my monster now.

The Crocodile, the Devourer of Men, has devoured something he shouldn't: a Myth Maker Witch. Now, with the witch's dark power swirling inside of him, he's losing control of his monster and quickly making his way through my ship and my crew. It's only me and Wendy Darling who can pull him back. But even we know time is running out.

We steer my ship to Neverland where Vane, Roc's little brother and one of Peter Pan's Lost Boys, reveals there's a way to fix Roc, but it requires a trip to Darkland.

With Vane and Winnie in tow, we set sail to Roc's home island. But not everything is as it seems on Darkland. Roc has allies and enemies lurking in the soot-stained streets, but it might be his past that catches up to him first.

Roc can no longer run from who he is. But where does that leave Wendy and me?

I may have lost my hand to the Crocodile, but I'm not willing to lose my heart too.

Now, not only do I have to save myself, I have to save the two men who I swore I would murder with my bare hands if I ever set eyes on them again considering they abandoned me.

Unfortunately for me, Roc and Hook have other plans, and when I find myself caught between them, I have to make a decision: risk my heart or risk my life?

A single kiss from a masked vampire has left Shane with an obsession and a mission: uncover the secrets of the black-market blood trade and find his mystery vampire in the process. But one knock at the wrong door and he could have fangs at his throat instead of lips.

Andres is trying to forget his kiss with Shane Crowley by drowning himself in his work as a thief for the blood trade. When his boss seizes an overcurious Shane to drain his blood, though, Andres's only option is to buy him for every drop he'll ever produce. This new ownership awakens thoughts of glittering collars-thoughts Andres knows are the desires of a monster.

But Andres needs blood to live, and he's going to have it from Shane, even if that means donning a mask once more and demanding Shane bare his neck during nightly excursions.

Soon, Shane feels pulled in all directions, between the strange desires his role as Andres's part-time blood slave is stirring in him, his investigations into the cycle of injustice that so many fanged citizens face, and a new friend whose mouth seems strangely familiar. Little does he know, every path leads back to the same vampire...

As a bookseller and caregiver, I saved up years for my dream vacation--drinking champagne on a beach with my favorite books. But my dream turns into a nightmare when I'm kidnapped by a muscular, tattooed jerk of a fey named Raphael.

Yes, kidnapped.

Turns out I have the power he needs to get revenge on the king who killed his family. And Raphael thinks I have it in me to become an elite spy. But in the ancient and gothic halls of Avalon Tower, competition and bullying are among the oldest traditions.

Asthmatic and out of shape, I'm in way over my head. I'll be lucky to get out of this place alive. I can't escape, because Raphael is watching my every move, and boy, does he have some moves. And the more I learn, the more I want him. But touching him is playing with fire. Am I ready to get burned?

In Mermaids of Albuquerque, Cohen leaps off a trope of geological time, a past sea in the basin of Albuquerque, and finds there a fresh trough of poetry. These poems come to us flush with magic, with an imagined past, and a love for the city of her origin.

Reading Mermaids of Albuquerque feels like stumbling upon a Chachalaca three hundred miles north of its usual range-a magical and unexpected treat. Cohen's world, though familiar, is seen through a lens that makes everything just a little different, odder, brighter, bolder, and further afield, allowing us to see the world with marveling eyes.

In Mermaids of Albuquerque, Cohen's poetry celebrates the ordinary, a testament to her joy in the natural and human landscapes of New Mexico. Her joyful and richly grounded poems capture the essence of birds, flowers, and the 'Land of Enchantment, ' turning them into 'diamonds of shiny, invincible sand.'

Through nuanced figurative turns, Cohen transforms her connection to the natural world into profound observations about the complexity of human nature. Morning glories become "beautiful love letters," leading the poet to meditate on loss and resilience, highlighting how nature continues its beauty despite human violence. Yet, her poetry's subtext of joy transcends any hint of bleakness. In every poem, we sense Cohen's genuine joy for nature and wildlife-the Chachalaca's "raucous" song, dancing honey bees, the Albuquerque desert, and mourning doves. These elements congregate in her pages to remind us that "the world is just dying to do better than yesterday."

Elizabeth Cohen's Mermaids of Albuquerque invites you to build an altar to all things ending and beginning again. Read these poems and experience a journey where joy and profound observation intertwine beautifully.

Set in early 1900s Italy and England, A Room with a View offers a humorous critique of Edwardian-era society. The novel begins in Florence, Italy, where Miss Lucy Honeychurch, who is chaperoned by her spinster cousin Miss Charlotte Bartlett, arrive at the Pensione Bertolini to find that instead of rooms with a view of the Arno, as promised, theirs face a drab courtyard. Another guest spontaneously offers to swap the rooms that he and his son have to remedy their distress. Thus ensues an unlikely acquaintance and a series of unforeseen, if not fateful, events that upend the lives of the eccentric cast of characters who vividly animate this enduring and delightful tale. Widely recognized as one of the finest novels of the twentieth century, A Room with a View is one of Forster's most celebrated works.

This Warbler Classics edition includes a thought-provoking and historically interesting essay about E. M. Forster's work by legendary contemporary critic and American public intellectual Lionel Trilling along with a detailed biographical timeline.
