When the Byrds released "Mr. Tambourine Man" in 1965, they introduced Bob Dylan's songs to a new audience and launched a career that would make them among the most influential rock bands of all time. With their unmistakable harmonies and Roger McGuinn's innovative 12-string Rickenbacker guitar, the Byrds never stopped experimenting. They incorporated folk, country, and jazz, influences into a fresh blend that helped define an era. "And not to be too shallow," Tom Petty once wrote, "but they also were just the best-dressed band around. They had those great clothes and hairdos."In 2022 the band's three surviving founding members - Roger McGuinn, Chris Hillman, and David Crosby - came together to present The Byrds: 1964-1967, a large format tabletop book that offers a unique visual history of the group. Featuring more than 500 images from legendary photographers such as Henry Diltz, Barry Feinstein, Curt Gunther, Jim Marshall, Linda McCartney, Tom Gundelfinger O'Neal, and Guy Webster, the book also includes restored images from the Columbia Records archives and the personal archives of the band's original manager. Accompanied by a running commentary of their memories of the group, the era, one another, and their late compatriots Gene Clark and Michael Clarke, this carefully crafted volume is a truly unique collector's item for Byrds fans.

"I'm showing how big the sky is" is a tribute by Martina Bacigalupo to her former nanny Chiou Taur Wu, a Taiwanese woman who lived for more than three decades in Italy. Battered by life - from a childhood spent in the fields of the south of the country to working in a factory in Taipei, while still a teenager, to the gambling debts of her Italian husband which forced her to work day and night - Chiou Taur don't let yourself be defeated. Returning to Taiwan at almost 70 years old, she decides to take her revenge on life and do everything she was unable to do before: she resumes her studies, enrolls in ballroom dance classes , and begins to travel. Through hundreds of photos received from Chiou during ten years of correspondence, the Italian photographer offers us the story of extraordinary resilience. Told in the first person, with images and words by Chiou, this book, published by L'Artiere Editions, is a song of freedom, full of humor and poetry. Martina Bacigalupo, born in Genoa in 1978, studied literature and photography before moving to Burundi, East Africa, where she worked for ten years as a freelance documentary photographer. Her work, focused on women rights and migration, investigates the visual dynamics between Africa and the West and has been featured in many leading publications, including The New York Times, Le Monde and The Sunday Times Magazine. Her photographs are part of several collections and museums, among which the Artur Walther Collection and the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston. She is the author of the photo book "Gulu Real Art Studio", published by Steidl in 2013. Martina currently works as a photographer and photo editor in Paris.

Das hochwertige Künstlerbuch im Leineneinband im Schuber zeigt Paris in surreal-poetischen Bildern.Der Titel "Le bateau ivre" (Das trunkene Schiff) verweist auf das gleichnamige Gedicht von Arthur Rimbaud über das menschliche Leben als eine dramatische Schiffsreise. In einem poetischen Fotoessay, der wie ein Theaterstück in fünf Akten angelegt ist, skizziert Martin Essl die Umrisse einer Stadt im Wandel und komponiert eine abstrakte und zeitgenössischeKarte von Paris.»Le bateau ivre von Martin Essl nimmt uns mit auf einen Pariser Spaziergang, der die ewige Wiederkehr des Gleichen, wie ein Vorhang, der sich endlos öffnet und schließt, zeigt. Wie verwässert und verwandelt, unter dem Einfluss von Variationen rund um kalte Farben, wird der Pariser Raum allmählich zu Acqua alta, geografische, soziale, kulturelle und zeitliche Grenzen werden aufgehoben.« (Sarah Sauquet)
