Images of Jamaica and the Bahamas as tropical paradises full of palm trees, white sandy beaches, and inviting warm water seem timeless. Surprisingly, the origins of those images can be traced back to the roots of the islands tourism industry in the 1880s. As Krista A.

Robert Polidori: 60 Feet Road: Bhatiya Nagar Facades

In his new book, Robert Polidori presents us with a large-format photograph of a city block in an improvisational, auto-constructed settlement in Mumbai, India. In an almost seamless progression that appears to expand like an accordion or folding-screen, the photograph is composed of multiple images imperceptibly overlaid and welded together in a complex process to form a panoramic view. Applying remote sensing techniques that are normally used in space cartography to street photography, Polidori ventures a photographic attempt to come to terms with the phenomena of adjacencies, observing and...

ISBN: 9781548505820 / Angielski / Twarda / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is said that there are three giant water falls in the world, which are Niagara Falls in North America, Victoria Falls in Southern Africa, and Iguazu Falls in Latin America. Besides their tremendous sizes, I like Iguazu Falls the best in that it is located in the untouched and natural area - most thick and beautiful forest, Amazon Jungle. It is distributed between Brazil and Argentina, and 'numerous islands along the 2.7-kilometre-long (1.7 mi) edge divide the falls into many separate waterfalls and cataracts, varying between 60 to 82 metres (197 to 269 ft) high. The number of these... It is said that there are three giant water falls in the world, which are Niagara Falls in North America, Victoria Falls in Southern Africa, and I... |

ISBN: 9781597112284 / Angielski / Twarda / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the last decade there has been a major reappraisal of the role and status of the photobook within the history of photography. Newly revised histories of photography as recorded via the photobook have added enormously to our understanding of the medium's culture, particularly in places that are often marginalized, such as Latin America and Africa. However, until now, only a handful of Chinese books have made it onto historians' short lists. Yet China has a fascinating history of photobook publishing, and The Chinese Photobook will reveal for the first time the richness and diversity...

The Soviet Photobook 1920-1941
ISBN: 9783958290310 / Angielski / Twarda / 636 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

No other country or political system advanced its cause by attracting and employing acclaimed members of the avant-garde. Among them were writers such as Semion Kirsanov, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Ilya Selvinsky, Sergei Tretyakov and Kornely Zelinsky; artist...
