Richard Misrach: Destroy This Memory
ISBN: 9781597111638 / Angielski / Twarda / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The photographs in Richard Misrach's Destroy This Memory are a stark, affecting reminder of the physical and psychological impact of Hurricane Katrina as told by those on the ground, and seen through the lens of a contemporary master. Rather than simply surveying the damage, Misrach--who has photographed the region regularly since the 1970s, most notably for his ongoing Cancer Alley project--found himself drawn to the hurricane-inspired graffiti: messages scrawled in spray paint, crayons, chalk or whatever materials residents and rescue workers happened to have on hand. At turns...

Robert Frank's 'The Americans': The Art of Documentary Photography
ISBN: 9781841503158 / Angielski / Miękka / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the mid-1950s, Swiss-born New Yorker Robert Frank embarked on a ten-thousand-mile road trip across America, capturing thousands of photographs of all levels of a rapidly changing society. The resultant photo book, "The Americans," represents a seminal moment in both photography and in America's understanding of itself. To mark the book s fiftieth anniversary, Jonathan Day revisits this pivotal work and contributes a thoughtful and revealing critical commentary. Though the importance of "The Americans" has been widely acknowledged, it still retains much of its mystery. This comprehensive...

Images to read: Imágenes para leer
ISBN: 9781453633182 / Angielski / Miękka / 46 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The 36 photographs in this book, by Eduardo Machuca, show a sample of Armando Alanis' street poetry work in the city of Monterrey, Mexico. Armando has been painting unused street walls with white and then writing with black paint, short poetic messages that capture the attention and imagination of drivers and pedestrians alike. His work is, however, ephemeral. Walls get painted over by someone else to announce something else. This endeavour is now close to its 15th year, in which Armando has painted close to 5,000 walls. Walls' poems text translated into English.

Michael Wesely: Time Works
ISBN: 9783829605137 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is common belief that a good photographer has to take sharp pictures. Michael Wesely, however, demonstrates just the opposite. Among the many variables, which the photographic process allows to manipulate, he is obsessed with only one: the exposure time of the shutter, practiced to the extreme. Some photographers work with exposure times of several seconds, but days, weeks, months, even years? They are Michael Wesely s domain and he tries them with all photographic subjects: portraiture, landscapes, still lives, plants, and buildings. Thus it seems only natural that sunrises and sunsets,...

Tsunami Beaches: A tale of love and loss

Tsunami Beaches: a tale of love and loss, hope and despair, innocence and passion When you look at a beach and say "this is paradise" or when you look at garbage and say "this is trash" the wording itself has so habituated your mind that the emotion it creates comes between you and what you actually see. To experience the true reality of that beach or trash, you must thus observe beyond words or labels, your heart must touch it. To grasp reality you must disregard outer labels, and let your innermost innocent matter observe what is there, with true love and affection. Love cannot be based on...

Valerie Belin: Black Eyed Susan
ISBN: 9783037641842 / Angielski / Twarda / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is unsurprising that French photographer Valerie Belin (born 1964) should so plainly declare: -I come from painting.- Although she uses a photographer's equipment, her images are far removed from realism. Whether responding to a still life by Edouard Manet or exploring societal constructions of female beauty, Belin emphasizes textural artifice and molded color, even when working in black and white.

Culinary Pleasures in the Provence: Food Selected, Prepared and Photographed by Pierre F. Walter
ISBN: 9781461035985 / Angielski / Miękka / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. CULINARY PLEASURES IN THE PROVENCE is not a cook book. There are no recipes. Nor is it a book about food photography in the traditional sense of the term. The photos are no digital high-quality prints, but taken spontaneously before enjoying the food the author had cooked. This being said, the book is rather autobiographical, and that's why every photo is dated. It is noteworthy that Pierre F. Walter's cuisine is not planned in any way, that there was no daily, weekly or monthly setup, as he was at that time very busy with his music, his videos, his art and his web sites. He cooks a...
