Her American Girl in Italy-the street scene with the whistling Italians-is an icon. Now sensational negatives and slides have surfaced from the archive that reveal a little-known side of Ruth Orkin: that of the sensitive, interested, witty chronicler of the women's world of the 1940s and 1950s. Orkin thought up editorials like the tongue-in-cheek reportage Who works harder? comparing the lives of a career woman and a housewife. She documented the hustle and bustle in beauty salons and at cocktail parties, at dog shows and on Hollywood film sets. We meet Lauren Bacall, Jane Russell, Joan Taylor or Doris Day, but also waitresses, stewardesses and female soldiers, as wall as groups of female friends. What emerges is the image of women on the move, women who are beginning to cast off the conventions imposed on them, going their own way: self-confident, stylish, smart.American photographer, photojournalist, and filmmaker RUTHORKIN (1921-1985) grew up in Hollywood as the daughter of asilent film actress. She went on to be one of the first women tostudy photojournalism at Los Angeles City College. In 1943 Orkinmoved to New York City, working as a freelance photojournalist.Her photographs appeared in The New York Times, LIFE, Look,Ladies' Home Journal, and other publications. On the occasion ofwhat would have been her 100th birthday, exhibitions were heldacross Europe and North America. In 2021, Hatje Cantz publishedA Photo Spirit dedicated to her pioneering work.

David Stephenson's stunning large format photographs ofcities at night across America, Australia and Asia reveal globalizedurban sprawl, energy use, and light pollution. Theseglowing "light cities" suggest much that is both good andbad in our industrialized society: extraordinary examples ofa monumental technological sublime, where awe, beauty,and human aspiration are tinged with the shadow of loomingenvironmental catastrophe, our engine of modernityseemingly running on empty. The accompanying essay byphotographic historian Keith F. Davis discusses the evolvingidea of the city as a key theme in photography, and whatit has symbolized, from the modernist city as an engineeringfeat, to the post-modernist city as a focus of energyand information.DAVID STEPHENSON (*1955, Washington D.C.) has lived inAustralia since 1982, when he took up a teaching post at theUniversity of Tasmania Art School.

H2O-scapes by Sylvie Leblanc (b. 1959) are photographic studies of the sky and the water, created between 2009 and 2023 in La Malbaie, Canada. All fifty-seven photographs were taken from the same location and depict the various physical states of the water in and above the Saint Lawrence River. Sometimes the landscape is entirely shrouded in fog without any visible horizon line; sometimes the outlines of islands are visible. Dramatic cloud formations, drifting ice floes or soft waves: Leblancs landscape remains the same and yet is presented in a multitude of different ways. Her photographs transform the dynamic play of the water molecules into a moment of stillness-and a space for dreams and contemplation.

A beautifully illustrated exploration of how Latif Al Ani's photographs and contemporary Iraqi artists continue to challenge the colonial appropriation of Iraq's ancient past Beginning in the early nineteenth century, Mesopotamian and early Islamic ruins became the focus of many Western colonial expeditions. These missions, which routinely dismissed the role and knowledge of local communities, came to shape the historical narrative of ancient civilizations and modern people. In Iraq, home to renowned sites such as Babylon, Dur-Kurigalzu, Ctesiphon, Hatra, and Samarra, foreign excavations appropriated ancient cultures and influenced how they were interpreted and transmitted. And these excavations still reverberate today in understandings of Iraqi identity. Centered around the images of pioneering Iraqi photographer Latif Al Ani (1932-2021), Through the Lens: Latif Al Ani's Visions of Ancient Iraq highlights the voices of those who explored the Iraqi past and the deeply personal stories of those who confront its legacy, challenging the Western colonial narrative that has dominated for centuries. The companion volume to an exhibition at New York University's Institute for the Study of the Ancient World, the book features archival documents, lithographs, 1960s photography, essays that explore the rich history of ancient and modern Iraq, and the work and personal accounts of five contemporary Iraqi artists who reflect on the complex issues of Iraqi cultural identity and heritage. Contributors include Adel Abidin, Narmin Amin, Pedro Azara, Roberta Casagrande-Kim, Abdulrahman K. Darwesh, Nelida Fuccaro, Nadine Hattom, Hanaa Malallah, Nat Muller, Mahmoud Obaidi, and Ala Younis.

Halloween es una celebración muy popular en Estados Unidos, que recientemente se ha extendido a gran parte del mundo. Suele tener lugar la víspera del 31 de octubre, al día siguiente es la fiesta cristiana de Todos los Santos con recuerdo de los difuntos. El nombre proviene del inglés antiguo "All Hallows Eve". Se dice que Halloween proviene de la religión celta del Samhain (Final del verano). Era una celebración del final del período de la cosecha. La tradición fue traída por inmigrantes escoceses e irlandeses a Estados Unidos y muchos creen que en realidad es una antigua tradición pagana celta que se trasladó al cristianismo.Una de las tradiciones de Halloween es disfrazarse, para salir de fiesta o para pedir dulces. Es lo que se llama en español, truco o trato. La gente decora las casas y otros locales con gran entusiasmo. A finales de los 1930, Una revista americana, The American Home (El hogar americanoempezó a publicar artículos dirigidos a las familias americanas, acerca del trick or treat (truco o trato). Programas de radio y televisión lo popularizaron aún más.Celebramos este feliz evento y esperamos que disfruten de nuestra selección de fotografías y que puedan servir de inspiración.
