Behind Frida Kahlo's portraits, lies the story of her life -- a body of work drawn from cries of anger and fury, blended into a potent, and artistically exceptional, combination. At six years of age, she suffered a bout of polio, and she was just 18 when a terrible bus accident changed her life forever, leaving her handicapped and burdened with constant physical pain. But her explosive character, raw determination and hard work helped to shape her artistic talent. Frida Kahlo managed to forge a place for herself in the macho society of Mexico, despite the double handicap of her crushed body and her sex. Frida Kahlo's work plays an important part in the artistic heritage of Mexico, her native country, with both its novelty and its multi-cultural values. The story and the paintings that Frida created provide a rare and courageous account of a woman on a voyage of constant self-discovery.

Born in 1887, Georgia O'Keeffe is one of the great figures in the history of the emancipation of modern art from its American essence. At a time when women were primarily wives and mothers, O'Keefe defied convention when she became first the companion, then the wife, of the famous photographer and father of American modern art, Alfred Stieglitz. Georgia O'Keeffe is known above all for her complex visual descriptions of nature: the delicacy of an autumn leaf, the subtle nuances of a flower petal, or the symmetry of an animal's head. Today, we associate her name with bright colours and the austere beauty of the New Mexico desert, where she lived until her death at the age of 98. This book explores the personal journey of O'Keeffe, her creative process and the legacy she left to the art world.

JMW Turner was a prolific master born to a barber in Covent Garden, London, in 1775. When he died in 1851, he left over 19,000 artworks. Selecting which to include in this book was a major feat in itself. Turner was a Romantic when it came to landscapes, with an inimitable flair for seascapes, and was a pioneer of new techniques for creating tone and hue, deeply impressed by Goethe's theory of colours. It took the great art critic John Ruskin to interpret his works in full. Turner was also a successful art gallery owner, professor of the Royal Academy and tireless traveller, who invariably returned home to England laden with outstanding artworks from abroad, especially Venice. With a keen eye for dramatic angle, he also documented on canvas the Battle of Waterloo, the fire that devoured Parliament and other major historical events of his time. Today, his works figure in the collections of the most famous museums in London, Los Angeles, New York and Washington DC.

For Monet, the act of creation was always a painful struggle. His obsession with capturing light effects in nature was much more intense than that of his contemporaries. In his words: "Skills come and go... Art is always the same: a transposition of nature that requests as much will as sensitivity. I strive and struggle against the sun... should as well paint with gold and precious stones." A beautiful display of Impressionist work, Great Masters Monet explores the extraordinary paintings of one of the masters of the 19th century. Monet's rapid brushstroke style in landscapes and scenes from everyday life illustrates his overall fascination with light and colour.

Hidden behind the portraits of Frida Kahlo is the remarkable story of the artist's life. It is precisely this combination that attracts the spectator. Frida's work is a testimony of her life. It is not often that one can understand an artist simply by looking within the frame of their paintings. Frida Kahlo is without any doubt Mexico's gift to art history. She was just eighteen when a terrible accident changed her life forever, leaving her disabled and in constant pain. But her explosive temper, her unwavering determination and her eagerness gave her the strength to develop her artistic talent. At her side there was always the great Mexican painter and muralist Diego Rivera. His compulsive womanizing did not prevent Frida from captivating him with her charms, her talent and her intelligence. She quickly learnt to take the most of Diego's success to discover the world, creating by the way her own legacy and being surrounded by a very close group of careful friends. Her personal life was stormy: several times she left Diego in order to have relationships with people of both sexes. Nonetheless, Frida and Diego were able to save their deteriorating romance. The history and the paintings that Frida left us reveal the story of a brave woman in constant search of her identity.

Paul Cézanne (1839 – 1906) formed a new approach to art that was crucial to the aesthetic development of many 20th century movements. From the moment he arrived in Paris, Cézanne was an outspoken critic of the artistic conventions of his time. He was not interested, as so many of the academic artists were, in merely recreating visual reproductions of the external world. Nor was he interested, as so many impressionist painters were, in recording the fleeting effects of nature. Cézanne believed that the natural world possessed enduring forms and colors, and the beauty lies within the relationship between them.

Gustav Klimt was born in Austria in 1862. In his early career he received a public commission to paint a series of frescoes. He received the “Gold Cross for Artistic Merit” for his Burgtheater murals. However it is to the Viennese Secession that Klimt’s name will most enduringly be linked. This revolutionary movement separated itself definitively from public, academic art. The artistic chaos which reigned in Vienna at the time made it an extraordinary place to live. The atmosphere of Klimt’s Nuda Veritas could be likened to the slow languor of Strauss’ operas or to the theatre productions of Schnitzler. His paintings and the few of his drawings which were not destroyed by fire demonstrate a sensuality of rare delicacy. For Klimt “All art is erotic”, whether expressed through the extravagant Byzantine deco-ration of his Judith I, or through pure nudity. This book brings together Klimt’s finest paintings, along with a text that demonstrates the extraordinary eclecticism of this great artist.

At a time and in a country in perpetual growth, Tiffany succeeded in elevating the decorative to the rank of fine art. Glass was the field of expertise of Tiffany’s workshops. There they developed groundbreaking techniques of treatment which produced beautiful effects on glass. Following the examples of Gallé or Daum, Tiffany made the most of this material: playing with colors, opaqueness and transparency… However, his most famous success is his lamps in mosaic of glass, similar to the cathedral’s stained glass window. Diving into this prism of colors, the author makes us dream again of the birth of this enduring company.

Paul Klee is one of those artists you can hardly classify in one movement of art history. Close to Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc, he was an important member of Der Blaue Reiter, an expressionist group of painters. Later he went on to be involved in the Bauhaus and even gave painting lessons in Dessau’s school. According to him, art had nothing to do with production, but was all about making things clearly visible. In his paintings, Klee’s subtlety combined the tendencies of the beginning of the 20th century. To German Expressionism, he injected elements of Cubism and Orphism, sprinkling his works with a surrealistic and melancholic poetry. The author leads us through the marvels of Klee’s world where each brush stroke echoes the power of colors.

This book features over 100 works of art dedicated to that most womanly of curves. Roughly the first half come from classical art: Roman mosaic, paintings by Gaugin and Rubens, sculpture from Rodin and from classical Greece, drawings from Klimt, Rafael, and lots more. The second half devotes itself to vintage photos and "French postcards." Although never hard-core, the images form a continuum from the traditional views of beauty in Western art through the decidedly titillating or naughty - showing just how vague the distinction can be. A lengthy essay winds through the artwork, never directly referring to the depictions. It starts with a rambling history of the esthetic of the body, bottom in particular. Somewhere along the line, the essay morphs into a discussion of the rear as any entrypoint for erotic play. Plenty of historical references showing how attitudes toward such play have changed over time, from an ideal, to a crime, to the fragmented views held today. On the whole, I found the essay missable, but the artwork delightfully easy to enjoy.

As well as one of the leading figures in the American Pop Art movement, Andy Warhol was a painter, printmaker, occasional sculptor and filmmaker, whose work carried on the tradition of Dadaism which questioned the very validity of art itself. He used images, objects and their means of production to draw parallels with cultural processes. By means of a variety of techniques, but principally through choice of images, repetition, isolation and use of colour, Warhol makes us aware of contemporary materialism, political manipulation, economic exploitation, conspicuous consumption, media hero-worship and the creation of artificially induced needs and aspirations. Through manipulating images and the public persona of the artist, Warhol also confronts us with the contradictions and superficialities of contemporary culture and the art it has engendered, whilst incorporating in his paintings and sculptures the very techniques of mass production that are central to the modern world, and emphasizing to the point of absurdity the complete detachment from social and artistic commitment that he saw around him. Despite the unevenness and shallowness of much of his later work, Andy Warhol was one of the most brilliant, challenging and intentionally infuriating artists of the last half of the 20th century.

Hiëronymus Bosch was painting terrifying yet strangely likable monsters, often with a touch of humour, long before computer games were invented. His works are assertive statements about the mental illness that befalls any man who abandons the teachings of Christ. With a life that spanned 1450 to 1516, Bosch was born at the height of the Renaissance and witnessed its religious wars. Medieval traditions and values were crumbling, paving the way to thrust man into a new universe where faith had lost its power and much of its magic. Bosch set out to warn doubters of the perils awaiting all and any who lost their faith in God. His favorite allegories were hell, heaven and lust. He held that everyone had to choose between one of two options: either heaven or hell. Bosch brilliantly exploited the symbolism of a wide range of fruits and plants to lend sexual overtones to his themes, which author Virginia Pitts Rembert meticulously deciphers to provide readers with new insight into this fascinating artist and his works.

把電影作為視覺藝術的人，往往忽略了電影中的音樂。然而，不少影片卻往往以內中的配樂而流傳後世。不管是重新演繹古典音樂及現成音樂，還是從零開始的原創音樂，電影配樂不但可以烘托人物及渲染場景，更可以把戲中的哲理層面勾刻出來。 熱愛電影和音樂的作者羅展鳳將她對電影音樂的研究和體會在 《映畫X音樂》一書向大家分享。書中談及王家衛、奇斯洛夫斯基、寇比力克、哥普拉、艾慕杜華、小津安二郎，以至李志毅、陳沖等數十部令人印象深刻的電影配樂。 作者在書中引用了大批中英文資料，她的「文字感性，卻能情理兼備」，「能娓娓道出電影與音樂的關係與背後的種種，豐富而不艱澀……」（黃愛玲語）而最令人不可思議的是，電影音樂居然可以通過文字的交代而使人如身歷其境。

芭蕾舞，如詩般美麗，如夢般飄逸，但舞者背後付出的是無數的汗水，甚至淚水。芳婷、曼盈和家美，三個人從小就一起習舞。三人性格各異，可並不妨礙她們的友誼，因為三個人都熱愛芭蕾舞，三個人聚在一起總有談不完的話題。舞台上，她們可以是三個小仙女、三只小天鵝；舞台下，她們就是三個愛笑愛跳的小女孩。直至一天，她們長大了，赫然發現，每齣芭蕾舞劇，原來只得一個女主角。生活，何嘗不是？誰當了主角，另外兩個就要當配角了。可誰喜歡當配角？何況，男主角也只得一個。如果她們都喜歡了相同的男主角，那更不能有兩個女主角了。成長，到底是接受不能每次都當主角；還是毅然撇下不適合自己的舞台，另找可以當主角的一片天？

離婚女人有什麼 strategy？你（或身邊的女人）是否已變了毒女人？單身的你如何度過 bloody Sunday？你認識葛蘭、陸離、宋懷桂嗎？曾聽過柴文意、陳韻文、黎海寧這些名字嗎？要是不，看畢這此書你會發現，香港原來有好些 icons，而她們都是女人。書中分兩部分去記述女人，第一部分Fancy Palette說的是當時女人群中的現象，Charming silhouette側以個別女人入筆描述，小宇對她們的個別感覺。能夠以錢瑪莉之名去寫《穿Kenzo的女人》，鄧小宇焉有不懂女人之理？女人的千嬌百媚、難以捉摸、感性和性感……通通見諸此書。《女人就是女人》雖寫於八十年代，卻彷彿永不過時，譜出了當時活躍於文化、時裝、影視、藝術界裡各式各樣的群芳圖；各女士的氣質、談吐、魄力和內涵，對二○一一年的女士而言，仍甚具參考價值。無論是欣賞或嘲諷，小宇以他獨特的觀察和生花的妙筆，把女人寫得如此精彩，令人意識到：香港原來曾經這樣絢爛過。

同志近年在媒體頻頻出現，劇場也紛紛出現同性戀內容的劇目，而入場的觀眾不止是男女同志，更是一大堆年輕女性，這現象在W創作社的劇作中尤其明顯，W創作社票房屢屢報捷，形成不可忽視的現象。同志劇場在歐美並不是新鮮事，早在幾十年前已發展蓬勃，香港廿多年前當然亦有同志劇作，不過規模很小，製作很少，而發展至今大多以商業化形式進行，把同志再一次帶給大眾，商業的同志劇又在社會中扮演什麼角色？劇場中的同志形象有否挑戰傳統媒體中的同志形象？

周星馳電影被人討論得最多的，是電影中的「後現代主義」。然而，本論文則會從另一方向研究周星馳的電影－－電影中的女演員。本文將集中討論周星馳電影中的三種主要女性角色，包括「醜女」、「妻子」以及「易裝者」。這些突出的女性角色所包含的女性形象是十分豐富、多樣的，從「喜劇」這一範疇去研究當中的女性形象也是一個新的角度。

是次的研究報告主要是想透過比較藝人在傳媒與觀者主觀理解下的形象差異，從而反映出觀者主導的思想建構過程及批判性。由於吳君如作為其中一個入選大眾最滿意的藝人形象之一，其發展的事業範疇又很廣泛，筆者因而假設大眾對她一般都應有一定程度的認知。而且，就其個人形象的評價，大眾傳媒一直都存有著很大的差異，基於上述分歧的主觀見解，筆者認為以她為是次的例子因而更能反映出想探討的研究結果。

2009年，黎耀祥在全港電視觀眾面前風風火火地演活了《巾幗梟雄》柴九的同時，寫下了這本書。實而不華的文字，低調而冷靜的觀察，一如本人，是黎耀祥在演藝生涯沉澱了二十四年對演技與人生的思考精髓。如他所言，寫這本書，是希望其他人明白演戲的意義之餘，也了解演戲和生命之間的關係。這本書，將讓你認識另一個前所未見的黎耀祥。演戲這一行很難捉摸，不成功固然不快樂，成功也不代表快樂，因為演戲涉及精神上的創作，不是純粹的物質滿足。尋求角色的過程很痛苦，像不斷摸索一個生命。倘若真心、認真的演戲，必然不會快樂。對我來說，演戲其實是檢視人生。
