Fotografi

An intimate portrait of the life and work of one of photography’s most renowned and celebrated artistsThroughout his more than sixty-year-long obsession with the medium, Josef Koudelka considers a remarkable range of photographic subjects—from his early theater work, to his seminal project on the Roma and his legendary coverage of the 1968 Soviet invasion of Prague, to the solitariness of exile and the often-devastating impact humans have had on the landscape. Josef Koudelka: Next embraces all of Koudelka’s projects and his evolution as an artist in the context of his life story and working process, offering an unprecedented glimpse into the mind and world of this notoriously private photographer. Based on hundreds of hours of interviews conducted over the course of almost a decade with Koudelka—as well as ongoing conversations with his friends, family, colleagues, and collaborators worldwide—this deftly told, richly illustrated biography offers an unprecedented glimpse into the mind of this notoriously private photographer. Writer, editor, and curator Melissa Harris has independently crafted a unique, in-depth, and revelatory personal history of both the man and his photography.Josef Koudelka: Next is richly illustrated with hundreds of photographs, including many biographical and behind-the-scenes images from Koudelka’s life, as well as iconic images from his work, from the 1950s to the present. The visual presentation is conceived in collaboration with Koudelka himself, as well as his longtime collaborator, Czech designer Aleš Najbrt.

Rome is a city of art, one that has seen an abundance of trades and crafts flourish over the centuries. Still today, a stroll through the city streets offers a wide variety of artisan workshops, especially in the oldest districts: the historic centre, Monti and Trastevere. It is no coincidence that many of the capital¿s streets proclaim the ancient trades previously established therein: Via dei Coronari (where artisans strung rosary beads), Via dei Funari (where ropes were coiled by hand), Via dei Balestrari (where crossbows were made and sold) etc. This precious heritage requires rediscovery, appreciation and safeguarding. This book of beautiful photographs is not only a fine publication but also represents a significant contribution to this aim. This is due not only to the artistic value of the images at the heart of the book but also to the atmospheres they evoke, reviving the memory of a Rome that, in many ways, no longer exists: a humble, authentic, working-class Rome, inhabited by artists and craftsmen with talented hands and passionate hearts. With an undoubtedly nostalgic eye, Roma: Tradizione che resiste captures moments and daily routines that still withstand the passing of time, through the work and craftsmanship of industrious artisans, restorers who preserve antique styles, artists who cherish bygone techniques, stall-holders at the market, shopkeepers who dispense ancient wisdom, mechanics, and bike shops where know-how is passed on from father to son. The Rome immortalized in the films of Vittorio De Sica, Federico Fellini and Pier Paolo Pasolini, and convincingly portrayed by actors like Alberto Sordi, Nino Manfredi, Gigi Proietti and Enrico Montesano, has not disappeared; on the contrary, it sets its genuine beauty and authenticity against an increasingly fast-moving, technological, sterile world. The Rome redolent of tradition that knows how to adapt to the adversities of life is, in fact, imprinted on the faces and the hands of the artisans who meet up in the heart of the Eternal City.

Summerfield''s 2014 publication, set mainly in his parents'' north Oxford house and garden, is a poignant and durational examination of his relationship with his parents as their lives together faded. On publication Summerfield received wide praise with the Guardian''s Sean O Hagan describing Mother and Father as a ''...profoundly sad and beautiful book.'' In Pictures from the Garden the photographers, each of whom has drawn inspiration from Mother and Father, travelled to Summerfield''s house in Oxford to discover a personal route to explore the emotions and themes that were evoked in the book. By photographing in the same space that set the scene for Summerfield''s original work about his parents, the photographers imbued themselves in the physical and psychological world depicted in its pages. The relationship that connects us with those that brought us into the world is universal and yet unique in every instance. Pictures from the Garden represents seven independent journeys taken to discover the nature of the most complex relationship that is common to us all.

Notre planète est couverte aujourd'hui de machines à courage. Cela m'incite à expliquer, à excuser même le titre de ce livre annoncé dans mes Souvenirs.D'abord ce titre n'est pas pour moi seule, il comporte les vies de tous les artistes. Quand je dis artistes je parle de quelque chose de périmé; de cette race romantique destinée à disparaître dans un monde que j'appelle le monde matière. Je fais partie de cette espèce. C'est un malheur et c'est tous les bonheurs. C'est avoir mille palais pour goûter l'infini des délices de la vie...

Autobiographical memory and photography have been inextricably linked since the first photographs appeared during the 19th century. These links have often been described from each other's discipline in ways that often have led to misunderstandings about the complex relationships between them. The Handbook of Research on the Relationship Between Autobiographical Memory and Photography covers many aspects of the multiple relationships between autobiographical memory and photography such as the idea that memory and photography can be seen as forms of mental time and the effect photography has on autobiographical memory. Covering key topics such as identity, trauma, and remembrance, this major reference work is ideal for industry professionals, sociologists, psychologists, artists, researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners, educators, and students.

"A gorgeous, heartwarming collection of canine portraits and stories celebrating the strong, enduring bond we share with our dogs, from the former staff photographer for BarkBox"--

"Whether he was shooting a movie star or a family member, he saw his own search for joy reflected in the images. While growing up in Pittsburgh, Lange cherished his happy childhood, and he found himself unconsciously yearning for that feeling in his adult life. He strove to re-create those fleeting sparks of childhood joy in his relationships and his photographs. "Each day I am trying to find the place we are all connected, but I never know where that place will be. I/create spaces where my subjects feel safe and trusting and can share their part of their own joy." Picturing Joy: Stories of Connection is a lively guide to Lange's approach to life as well as the highlights of his career. This optical and optimistic book captures his curiosity, energy, and enthusiasm for people and photography. It also distills wisdom gleaned from a lifelong search for quotidian beauty that might otherwise go unnoticed. Through intimate stories and more than eighty photos, Picturing Joy invites readers to appreciate life with all their senses and to change their perspective by being open to new things."--]cProvided by publisher.

A full-colour scrapbook of Haligonians, featuring photographs and first-person stories, from the popular Facebook page, Halifolks, featuring over 150 people of diverse backgrounds and lived experiences, for fans of Humans of New York. In the early 2010s, Australian Jack Scrine found himself in Halifax, Nova Scotia, with plenty of travel experience but little more than a camera to his name. As he wandered the city, he started to capture images that documented the eclectic, the unusual, and the everyday lives of the people around him. A fan of Brandon Stanton's Humans of New York, Scrine realized there were similar stories of love and loss, happiness and sadness, friends and enemies, and embarrassments and triumphs all around him - and Halifolks was born, first as a blog, then as a Facebook page, and now, for the first time, as a book. Featuring 150 captivating colour images of Haligonians, both famous and obscure, Halifolks: The Faces and Stories of Halifax highlights stories that cut to the heart with truth, simplicity, and honesty. It's not every day we are confronted with questions like: When were you happiest? What is your greatest struggle? What is your biggest regret? The answers can be tragic, uplifting, and even funny - but ultimately, they are always healing.

Spring in the Park is one book in the SENIOR STORIES series of color photography books with simple text designed to stimulate conversation and interaction between seniors with Alzheimer's and their caregivers. The readers will take a visual trip through a park to see cherry trees, tulips, daffodils and other blossoms as well as a toy sailboat on a pond, a picnic scene, a man in a rowboat...and more.

These images of life's pleasures have the potential to stimulate conversation by rekindling warm feelings, which are captured in the pages of this special book." The author hopes both seniors and caregivers enjoy sharing the springtime scenes.

Als Meister des grafischen Genres verlegt Michael Flomen seine Dunkelkammer unter den freien Himmel. Ohne Kamera, allein im Einvernehmen mit der Natur, entstehen dort seine großformatigen avantgardistischen Fotogramme. Von den Großstädten bis zur Wildnis Nordamerikas verfolgt die Monografie mit 182 Bildern und acht kritischen Essays den Entwicklungsweg seiner einzigartigen Vision.Um sich in der Fotografie mit Abstraktion auseinanderzusetzen, lässt Michael Flomen die Kamera außen vor und konzentriert sich stattdessen auf lichtempfindliche Materialien. Wasser, Wind, Regen, leuchtende Glühwürmchen und andere Naturphänomene sind typische Komponenten seiner Arbeit. Aus der Natur lässt er monumentale Fotogramme entstehen und offenbart in ihnen Dinge, die sich dem bloßen Auge entziehen. Die Werke berühren uns gerade in der heutigen Zeit, in der wir wieder lernen, in Einklang mit der Umwelt zu bringen.

Oberschwaben (Upper Swabia), between the Black Forest, Lake Constance and the Allgäu, offers a richness of Baroque architecture and picturesque rolling landscapes. Axel Hütte's images are not intended as portrayals of a cultural landscape and its history. They are photographic images, but not necessarily photographically realistic images. They are, collectively, titled Reflexio. Hütte works with the inversion of the colour spectrum, the reflection of the pictorial space. The photographer's interventions in the realistic image are a radical transformation of what the eye initially registered, they contradict experience; negate customary perception. Instead, they are an autonomous aesthetic construct and reveal a different side of reality. The two themes in these works-"Baroque" and "landscape"-thus become equivalent tools for thoroughly investigating pictorial realities.AXEL HÜTTE (*1951, Essen) studied photography in Düsseldorf Art Academy in Bernd and Hilla Becher's class, and is considered one of main representatives of the Düsseldorf School of Photography. His images take on a painterly quality as strives to make the world experienceable as real and at the same time as imagination. His works are part of the world's most important photo collections. Hütte lives and works in Düsseldorf.

Mixing seemingly deadpan architectural portraiture with poetically frozen moments of daily life, photographer Kris Graves reveals the living history of racism and elitism in the United States.In Privileged Mediocrity, Graves shows us both the brutality and beauty of American life. Each image of a person or a place tells its own complex, moving story and cumulatively capture a longing for the unfulfilled promise of a true democracy. Racism can be seen in infrastructure and planning nationwide, from the human and built environment impacts of redlining and unsustainable public housing; to spaces where homeless communities are able to exist temporarily before they are dismantled. This book seeks to explore the subtleties of the built realities and the planned experience across racial, class, and gender lines. It explores how racism, capitalism, and power have shaped the country and how that can be seen and experienced in everyday life.KRIS GRAVES (*1982, New York) is a photographer and publisher based in New York and California. Using a mix of conceptual and documentary practices, he photographs the impact of systemic unfairness on the built environment. Graves received his BFA in Visual Arts from S.U.N.Y. Purchase College and has been published and exhibited globally, including MoMA, New York; Getty Institute, L.A.; and National Portrait Gallery in London.

In 1979 the photographer Robin Morrison and his family spent seven months on the road in the South Island, where Morrison photographed people and places. The resulting book was published in 1981 by Alister Taylor and became an overnight success -- and the first photographic book to win a New Zealand Book Award (now the Ockham New Zealand Book Awards) for non-fiction, in 1982. Alas, conflict between Taylor and the printer, and the later loss of some images, meant it was never reprinted once it had sold out. It now has near legendary status and sells for hundreds of dollars in the used-book market. Now this groundbreaking book is back in a new edition. Morrison's original Kodachrome slides have been digitised using the latest technology, and his friend and fellow journalist Louise Callan has written a major essay on the book and its legacy, including assessments and recollections by Robin White, Laurence Aberhart, Grahame Sydney, Owen Marshall, Ron Brownson, Dick Frizzell, Alistair Guthrie and Sara McIntyre. Forty years on, Morrison's astounding images can now be appreciated afresh.

Diversifying the current art historical scholarship, this edited volume presents the untold story of modern art by exposing global voices and perspectives excluded from the privileged and uncontested narrative of "isms."

Hidden Realms, by one of the world's most respected cavers Martyn Farr, showcases 100 of the most outstanding, must-visit caves, potholes, mines and tunnels across the UK and Ireland.

An intimate foray into the invisible work that made it possible for pictures to circulate in print and online from the 1830s to the 2010s.Picture Research focuses on how pictures were saved, stored, and searched for in a time before scanners, servers, and search engines, and describes the dramatic difference it made when images became scannable, searchable, and distributable via the internet. While the camera, the darkroom, and the printed page are well-known sites of photographic production that have been replaced by cell phones, imaging software, and websites, the cultural intermediaries of mass-circulation photography—picture librarians and researchers, editors, and archivists—are less familiar. In this book, Nina Lager Vestberg artfully details the range of research skills, reproduction machinery, and communication infrastructures that was needed to make pictures available to a public before digitization.Drawing on documents and representations across a range of cultural expressions, Picture Research reveals the intermediation that has been performed by skilled workers in a variety of roles, making use of pre-photographic, photographic, and digital machineries of capture, accumulation, extraction, and transmission. Tracing a history of the modern pictorial economy from the pre-photographic 1830s to the post-digitized 2010s, it makes visible and explicit the invisible labor that has built—and still sustains—the visual commodity culture of everyday life.

Photography and Philosophy takes an up-to-date look at the issues of photographic truth, objectivity, and realism. It tests the limits on what can ethically be done with a camera and examines the fundamental differences between photographic and non-photographic artwork.
