PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED HIGHLIGHTS (white sheets) Yale University Press Advance Information * * * Advance Information DISTINGUISHED IMAGES Prints and the Visual Economy in Nineteenth‐Century France Stephan Bann This multifaceted book reviews the vast range of types of printmaking that flourished in France during the 19th century. Studies of this period’s printmaking tend to be confined to histories of individual processes, such as lithography or steel engraving. This study surveys the field as a whole and discusses the relationships between the various media in the context of an overall “visual economy.” Lithography, etching, and engraving are all examined through astute scholarship on the era’s most influential artists, including Hyacinthe Aubry‐Lecomte, Léopold Flameng, Ferdinand Gaillard, Aimé de Lemud, Félix Nadar, and Charles Waltner. Rather than simply tracing the rise of Modernism in the 19th century, Distinguished Images reconstitutes the period’s cultural milieu through a series of case studies written with an eye to overarching forces at play. The result is the most original analysis of printmaking to appear in many years—a striking new account of a system in which printmaking, printmakers, and art critics played heretofore unrecognised or misunderstood roles. Stephen Bann is emeritus professor and senior research fellow, Bristol University, UK. He is among the most distinguished art historians working today, not least because of his range of interests, but also because of his influence among art theorists. He is the author or editor of some 18 books. His most recent ones are Art and the Early Photographic (National Gallery Washington, 2011) and Painting History (National Gallery London, 2010).

Chapter 5 Exit Etching Yale University Press Advance Information * * * Advance Information AESTHETICS A Memoir Ivan Brunetti Born to working‐class parents in a small town in Italy, and reared in Chicago, Ivan Brunetti was drawn to cartoons and comic strips from an early age. Finding inspiration in Spider‐Man and Peanuts, he began crafting his own stories and gradually developed a unique style that he applied to imaginative, sometimes shocking subjects. The dark humour of his graphic novels earned him a cult following, yet his illustrations have had broad appeal. Now recognised as an award‐winning cartoonist and illustrator, Brunetti has published his work in the New Yorker, the New York Times Magazine, and McSweeney’s, among others. This eye‐popping illustrated autobiography by Brunetti traces his artistic trajectory and output, from youthful doodles to his latest cover illustrations and comic strips. Aesthetics: A Memoir unearths a trove of previously unpublished materials, including working drawings, sketches for cartoons, book covers, personal photographs, dan items from the artist’s collection of toys and handmade objects. In an introductory essay and captions, Brunetti explains—in a voice that is as quirky, smart, and clear as his drawings—his creative process and aesthetic sensibility. This overarching retrospective conveys Brunetti’s philosophy of life and cartooning through his keen words and unforgettable images. Ivan Brunetti has published several graphic novels and taught courses on editorial illustration and comics at the University of Chicago and Columbia College Chicago. He is the author of the Eisner‐Award‐winning Cartooning and the editor of the two‐volume Anthology of Graphic Fiction, Cartoons, and True Stories all published by Yale in 2011, 2006 and 2008 respectively.

Cabañas On October 27, 1960, art critic Pierre Restany named a group of Paris‐based artists the “Nouveaux Réalistes” (New Realists) in a founding declaration that stated, “The New Realists recognise their collective singularity. New Realism = new perceptual approaches of the real.” Besides Restany, this group included Arman, François Dufrêne, Raymond Hains, Yves Klein, Martial Raysse, Daniel Spoerri, Jean Tinguely, and Jacques Villeglé. Their work incorporated consumer objects and new media in response to the postwar period’s painterly modes and its burgeoning consumer and industrial society. However, they did not share a common avant‐ garde strategy. The Myth of Nouveau Réalisme is a critical reassessment of this important neo‐avant‐garde movement. Kaira M. Cabañas offers an interdisciplinary account of their work and challenges the ideas of Restany, who mandated a “direct appropriation of the real.” Cabañas posits that, for the Nouveaux Réalistes, realism engaged performative practices to produce alternative social meanings. Kaira M. Cabañas is lecturer in the department of art history and archaeology, Columbia University.
