Their portraits narrate what it means to be Afghan in the early twenty-first century, to be living in one of the most atrociously poor and dangerous places on earth, in the richest world society on record. It is not all Afghanistan's fault. Beside many other factors that make it naturally prone to poverty, Afghanistan has long been sitting on one of the main fault lines between eastern and western blocks. In many respects, Afghanistan's present is a living legacy of the Cold War, of our own past. Of the hundreds of billions...

Judge, Judge Not: An Illustrated Companion to Measure for Measure
ISBN: 9781934074275 / Angielski / Miękka / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The varied artistic approaches presented in this book reflect the interpretations and visions Shakespeare's Measure for Measure. Some "illustrate" literal scenes from the text; others more metaphorically interpret the central themes of the text or wrestle with the moral questions raised by the implications of judging-or not judging-the actions of another. Although a few artists engaged the densely rich humor of Measure for Measure, more focused on the darker issues raised by this problematic comedy: the role of an apparently just Duke who nonetheless deceives his subjects; the malevolent...

There are very few high-quality books of wide-field deep-sky images on the market, primarily because the major professional telescopes are scheduled for research projects and beautiful images are secondary. Star Vistas contains many spectacular photographs that were made specifically for this book. They are unavailable...

Considering light, design, texture, framing, and perspective, she experimented with composition. She tried different films, papers, and exposures, took shots from various angles and distances, and cropped and enlarged photographs in her kitchen darkroom. Then she waited...
