Robert Frank: Valencia 1952
ISBN: 9783869305028 / Angielski / Twarda / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1950, Robert Frank left his job as a photographer in New York to travel through Europe with his family. That summer he arrived in Valencia, Spain, which was at the time a humble, bleak place enduring the austere conditions of the postwar period like the rest of the country. The pictures Frank took of Valencia depict the daily life of a fishing village. His portrayal is so natural and clear that further verbal explanation seems superfluous; they simply reflect, in the photo grapher's words, -the humanity of the moment.- The photographs in this book, many of which have never been published...

Jan Svoboda
ISBN: 9788072154241 / Angielski / Miękka / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dílo fotografa Jana Svobody (1934-1990) má mezinárodní význam, přesto je dodnes spíše legendou, neúplně dotýkanou a zpracovanou, dodnes se například nedočkal velké retrospektivní výstavy. Teoretik fotografie Pavel Vančát připravil pro přítomnou edici zevrubnou studii, v níž po soustavném studiu Svobodova díla pojmenovává Svobodovu pozici jako zakladatelské osobnosti celé jedné linie české fotografie. Svobodově jedinečné tvorbě, dopracované do těch nejjemnějších detailů, se touto knihou dostává důstojného zhodnocení.

In Le Corbusier: Secret Photographer Tim Benton reflects on the famous architect's use of photography, starting with the young Charles-Edouard Jeanneret's attempts to take professional photographs during his travels in central Europe, the Balkans, Turkey, Greece, and Italy.

Mexico: Photographs by Mark Cohen
ISBN: 9781477311714 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "I made these pictures exactly as if I was taking pictures in Wilkes-Barre, my hometown. I was led only by what I could see on the street. Of course, the extreme newness of this giant country, Mexico, was shocking to me. There really is surrealism in the air." Between 1981 and 2003, Mark Cohen travelled to Mexico eight times. Seduced by the "surrealist" qualities he found there, Cohen took his camera to the streets of Mexico City, Oaxaca City, and Merida, as well as other parts of the Yucatan. Following his split-second impulses, Cohen took his signature "grab... "I made these pictures exactly as if I was taking pictures in Wilkes-Barre, my hometown.

Included in this compendium are more than 150 images from three of Maricevic's most distinct periods: 1975-2005's "Naked Men," all taken in...

Recovering Place: Reflections on Stone Hill
ISBN: 9780231164986 / Angielski / Twarda / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Mark C. Taylor recounts a poignant love affair not with a person but with a place that, paradoxically, cannot be easily localized. For many years, Taylor has lived in the Berkshire Mountains, where he writes and creates land art and sculpture. In a world of mobile screens and virtual realities, where speed is the measure of success and place is disappearing, his work slows down thought and brings life back to earth to give readers time to ponder the importance of place before it slips away. Taylor extends reflection beyond the page and returns with new insights about what is hiding in...
