Enrique Martinez Celaya s aesthetic project revives and reinterprets the classic Western metaphysical tradition relating aesthetics to ethics, the Beautiful to the Good and the True. His work embodies his belief that being a certain kind of artist means being a certain kind of person and that in and through art he gains clarity about himself and his relationship to the world.

Friday Night Grind
ISBN: 9780976252337 / Angielski / Twarda / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

To gain entry into this darkened, shadowy world was difficult.
Friday nights, better known as date night in the Crescent City, were chosen to penetrate the fantasy, harshness, and humanity of the stripper's world; to become a witness to the reality of their "otherwordly" existence....

Marco Breuer: Early Recordings
ISBN: 9781597110334 / Angielski / Twarda / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Early Recordings presents the first comprehensive look at the work of the respected, conceptually driven artist, Marco Breuer. Boldly experimental, Breuer uses an extensive and continually evolving range of processes to extract abstract and visually compelling images from photographic paper. Whether it involves placing burning coals on the photographic paper, repeatedly slicing into it or sanding away at the emulsion until holes appear, Breuer's work eviscerates the usual expectations of the camera-less image. The Minimalistic end results are surprisingly exquisite, and this oversized...

Tod Papageorge: American Sports, 1970: Or, How We Spent the War in Vietnam
ISBN: 9781597110501 / Angielski / Twarda / 131 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Coolly observational yet intensely engaging, the immensely influential American photographer Tod Papageorge's American Sports, 1970 draws a subtle but sharp parallel between the war in Vietnam and the American attitude toward spectator sports during a time of conflict. In 1970, a watershed year for popular opinion against the war, Papageorge was awarded a Guggenheim Foundation grant. His ostensible subject--sports and its role in American life--quickly became charged with the political, racial and sexual conflicts ignited by the war. Each and every picture is electric with disquiet....

Description: Viet Nam at Peace is the monumental chronicle of a country struggling to emerge from the apocalyptic destruction of war--a destruction so seismic that many thought (vainly) that it would end all contemporary imperial aggression.

Atta Kim: The Museum Project
ISBN: 9781931788557 / Angielski / Twarda / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In The Museum Project, Korean photographer Atta Kim commandeers average scenes--city streets, department stores, freight depots and forests--and turns them into exhibition spaces. On display are people crammed into acrylic boxes, stacked in sets, on end, or sometimes alone. In selecting his subjects and isolating them in their boxes, Kim aims to "detach them from reality; to display and deconstruct at the same time my own concept of the world." Kim compares his efforts to that of an archaeologist, sifting through the cultural strata in order to unearth and hold up exemplary objects for...

Katy Grannan: Model American
ISBN: 9781931788816 / Angielski / Twarda / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Working with ordinary people who answered ads in local papers, posing them in their nondescript homes or unexceptional landscapes and using relatively simple equipment, Katy Grannan alchemizes these factors into extraordinary photographs. Disarming for their directness and for the provocative but casual nudity on display, her pictures capture the spirit of her subjects in the manner of Diane Arbus, but they also draw upon the artificial, posed tableaux of Gregory Crewdson and, indeed, art history. The posture of the tattooed and tanned (and nude) figure in "Mike," a 2003 portrait which...
