Walker Evans: Labor Anonymous
ISBN: 9781938922947 / Angielski / Twarda / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Walker Evans shot the photographs collected in Labor Anonymous as an assignment for Fortune magazine, which published a small selection of 20 images in its November 1946 issue, under the title -On a Saturday Afternoon in Detroit.- Until now, however, the entire series of 50 photographs has never been reproduced.

Old Chinatown: Turn of the Century Photographs of San Francisco's Chinatown
ISBN: 9781633912274 / Angielski / Miękka / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume is one of a number of Westphalia titles significant in the story of the not always happy and often controversial Chinese contact with Western society.

The first restrictive Act passed on May 6, 1882, and was the start of a series of increasingly more restrictive laws against Chinese, such as the Act to Prohibit the Coming of Chinese...

Robert Frank: Hold Still, Keep Going
ISBN: 9783869309040 / Angielski / Twarda / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Hold Still, Keep Going is the long-awaited reprint of the catalogue to Robert Frank's (born 1924) 2001 exhibition at the Museum Folkwang in Essen.

Hold Still, Keep Going fills that void, exploring the influence of film on Frank's photographic work, and the interaction between the still and moving image...
