Ako vyzerali najvyššie hory Českej republiky v časoch prvých lyžiarov a turistov? Ktoré horské chaty stoja dodnes neporušené a ktoré by ste hľadali márne? Lyžovali dámy v sukni a klobúku? Svedectvo o tom zanechali prví profesionálni a amatérski fotografi. Viac ako 140 snímok Krkonôš vybral, upravil a textami doplnil vlastník rodinnej zbierky starých fotografií Pavel Scheufler. Kniha nie je len cenným svedectvom o premene týchto veľhôr, ale aj návodom ako čítať fotografie tak, aby sme počuli pútavé príbehy, ktoré rozprávajú.

Prvá slovensko-anglická publikácia venovaná Romanovi Ondakovi (1966) približuje tvorbu vo svete najprestížnejšieho slovenského umelca v metonymickej skratke - na projekte Fail to Fall z roku 2010. Názov tohto diela je vskutku príznačný. Ondak sústredil desiatky fotografií zaznamenávajúcich padáky, ktorých riadený, naprogramovaný pád zlyhal a ocitli sa na nesprávnych miestach - v korunách stromov, na ruke Krista Spasiteľa v Riu de Janeiro či na fakle Sochy Slobody... Konceptuálny posun faktov do nových, originálnych situácií, ale aj ďalšie tvorivé stratégie autora, ktorý nechce sám na seba upozorňovať, osvetľuje kunsthistorik Aurel Hrabušický. Publikácia vychádza v spolupráci s galériou PHOTOPORT.

A tetten ért halál című könyvnek, amely angolul Death in the making címmel 1938-ban jelent meg, még nem volt magyar kiadása. Ez az új reprint kiadás, egy fotótörténeti ritkaság, pontos mása az 1938-as kötetnek, de az eredeti papírképek és negatívok felhasználásával új másolatok készültek hozzá, és kiegészült egy történeti igényű esszével. A fotók szerzőségét is sikerült pontosan azonosítani, ennek során derült fény arra, hogy közülük néhányat Robert Capa és Gerda Taro mellett barátjuk, Chim készítette. A képszövegeket Robert Capa, az előszót Jay Allen írta. A könyvet André Kertész tervezte. A tetten ért halál fényképeken keresztül követi nyomon a spanyol polgárháború első évének eseményeit. A fotók és az azokat kísérő szövegek egy rendkívüli időszakban ragadják meg a diadalmas pillanatokat, és rajzolják ki a háborús borzalmak krónikájának ívét: a demokratikusan megválasztott spanyol kormány védelmében a köztársasági erők összefognak, hogy leverjék a Francisco Franco tábornok vezette fasiszta felkelést. Képi rekviem ez, mely emléket állít a kezükben fegyverrel elesett harcolók ezreiről. 1937 őszén, amikor ez a kötet készült, már világosan látszott, mennyire megszenvedi a spanyol köztársaság, hogy számos európai ország és az Egyesült Államok - a be nem avatkozás politikáját választva - elárulta ügyüket. A tetten ért halál elégikus hangvételű tisztelgés az áldozatvállalás előtt. Robert Capa huszonöt éves volt, amikor A tetten ért halál megszületett. Az ő képein kívül Gerda Taro német fotóriporter - ő 1937 júliusában vesztette életét a spanyol fronton -, valamint lengyel kollégájuk, Chim képei fejezik ki a szenvedélyes hitet és elköteleződést a demokrácia egyik legnemesebb ügye mellett.

Doba covidová smíchu moc nepřála. Ale potlačit jej nelze, na bolavou dobu je to nenahraditelný lék. Jiří Mevald zachytil za svou dlouhou reportérskou dráhu tento krásný lidský projev v mnoha podobách – před objektivem jeho fotoaparátů se smáli herci, zpěváci, politici, sportovci i kolemjdoucí. Snad tato publikace přinese inspiraci a potěšení pro duši všem, kteří ji vezmou do ruky. V publikaci Jiřího Mevalda jsou zachyceny osobnosti známé i neznámé v okamžicích, kdy netuší, že jsou v hledáčku fotoaparátu. Tak je zachycen smích, úsměv, chechot, někdy i řehot. Od ucha k uchu. Vznikla tak ojedinělá kolekce snímků, která připomíná vzácné okamžiky, které nás spojují. Okamžiky, kdy nic nepředstíráme a zažíváme obyčejný kus radosti a pocitu štěstí.

Peter Lindbergh and Azzedine Alaia, the photographer and the couturier, were united by their love of black, a love that they would cultivate alike in silver print and solid color garments. Lindbergh ceaselessly turned to black and white to signify his search for authenticity in the faces he brought to light. Alaia drew on the monochrome of timeless clothes to create veritable sculptures for the body. In this book, the unique dialogue between the two artists is immortalized in print. Illustrating their community of spirit, its images are a celebration of their artistic partnership and testament to their history-making achievements in photography and fashion. Despite their geographically opposed origins, Lindbergh and Alaia pursued similar horizons. At the same time as Lindbergh's reputation in Germany was growing thanks to his work in Stern magazine, and he set up his studio in Paris in 1978, Alaia was the couturier shrouded in discretion whose sophisticated techniques were a treasured secret amongst the most important clients of Haute Couture. Alaia became the architect of bodies, revealing and unveiling them, while Lindbergh distinguished them by shining a light on their soul and personality. Step by step, they became the creators that dominated their respective disciplines. Both rejected any artifice that distracted from their true subject, and it is with great ease that they came together for a number of powerful collaborations. Shared inspirations and aesthetic values are visible throughout their work. A beach in Le Touquet and the streets of old Paris reference a mutual love of black and white cinema and vast panoramas. The backdrop of an engine room illustrates the memory of an industrial German landscape for one and references the inordinate passion for functional design and architecture held by the other. Alaia's clothes act as pedestals for the smiles and eyes of the women who wear them: Nadja Auermann, Mariacarla Boscono, Naomi Campbell, Anna Cleveland, Dilone, Lucy Dixon, Vanessa Duve, Helene Fischer, Pia Frithiof, Jade Jagger, Maria Johnson, Milla Jovovich, Lynne Koester, Ariane Koizumi, Yasmin Le Bon, Madonna, Kristen McMenamy, Tatjana Patitz, Linda Spierings, Tina Turner, Marie-Sophie Wilson, Lindsey Wixson. For Lindbergh, who built his notoriety on the images of these supermodels, the authenticity of their traits is all that matters. The result is a potent black and white catalogue that reverberates with truthfulness and beauty.The book accompanies the exhibition Azzedine Alaia, Peter Lindbergh at the Fondation Azzedine Alaia, 18 rue de la verrerie, Paris, France.

In November 2020, Depeche Mode were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and Dave Gahan, accepting the honour, said: "I'd like to thank Anton Corbijn who thank God came in at the right time and actually made us look cool." Also in the fall of 2020, TASCHEN released the limited edition Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn (81-18) signed by Depeche Mode and Anton Corbijn, and it became one of the fastest selling collector's editions in the publishing company's history. This equally epic, but more wallet friendly XL edition, is a testament to Corbijn's unique vision, and indeed "cool" as Gahan acknowledged so movingly in his speech; a detailed illustrated history of how Corbijn, who became in 1986 the band's de facto creative director, and helped cement Depeche Mode's reputation as the biggest cult band in the world. Featuring over 500 photographs from Corbijn's extensive archives, some never seen before, including formal and informal portraits from places such as Madrid, Hamburg, the California desert, Prague and Marrakech (some taken during the making of iconic videos such as "Enjoy the Silence" and "Personal Jesus"); a multitude of off-the-cuff, candid images; and stunning live shots from all their tours since 1988. In addition to the photographs, there are sketches and designs for stage sets and album covers, Corbijn's handwritten captions throughout the book, placing the reader right in the middle of the shoots, and an extended interview with the Dutch master. Created with the full collaboration of the band, who share some insights on working with Corbijn, Depeche Mode by Anton Corbijn (81-18) trumpets how one man's original aesthetic, that has encompassed all of their photography, most of their music videos, album graphics and set designs, helped shape the band's enduring popularity. Reflecting on his role in Depeche, Corbijn recalls in the book's introduction: "A lot of it came down to me, and I wanted it to be right for them. I wanted to think for them. To be great for them." This book is a tribute to the depth and breadth of that greatness, a celebration of one of the most creative and enduring collaborations in rock history.

Ever heard of the Volkhart Sagitta? L'OEuf electrique, or the Stanley Steamer? If not, you are in for a beautiful surprise, 50 times over! Often times the cars in this richly illustrated book were lost because the manufacturer ceased to exist, or because they were found on the bottom of Lake Maggiore after 75 years, like the Bugatti Brescia. Among the 50 beauties there are one-offs, concepts, trendsetters, and failures as well as cars of the rich and famous, from Marilyn Monroe to Clark Gable. Text in English and German.

Follow photographer Frederic Chaubin as he embarks on a unique, century-spanning journey through Europe. Featuring images of more than 200 buildings in 21 countries, Stone Age presents the history and architecture of the most dramatic medieval castles of the continent in an unprecedented collection. Building on the success of his foray into Soviet design with CCCP, Chaubin once again documents the afterlife of highly rational structures that seem out of place in a modern-day world. Precursors of Brutalism, these castles value function over form and epitomize the raw materials and shapes that would go on to define so much of architectural history. Shot on film with a Linhof view camera, the collection is the outcome of five years of travel and investigation. Complete with a practical map and explanatory essay, its castles tell the story of 400 years, unfolding through the feudal Middle Ages into the 15th century. A photographic study of decay as much as endurance, Stone Age traces the history of some of these singular structures that continue to enchant their audiences today and that occupy a distinct, mystical place in our collective imagination.

For more than thirty years, Harry Gruyaert has been recording the subtle chromatic vibrations of Eastern and Western light. His photographs attest to his singular vision: his interest in story, public space and unexpected scenes. This book brings together 125 of Gruyaert's photographs of India, many published here for the first time. From Gujarat to Kerala, Gruyaert captured the quintessence of this multifaceted country. Streets bustling with activity in New Delhi or Calcutta; modest villages in Tamil Nadu or Rajasthan; ghats of the great religious city of Benares; women in saffron and purple saris beating grain, dyers busy at smoky vats, an encampment of nomadic shepherds at twilight... Gruyaert's India is saturated with colour, light and noise - and sometimes silence too. These images move beyond stereotype to present the plurality of India. 'Taking a photo means both seeking contact and refusing it, being at once the most and the least present,' says the photographer. It is a question of teasing out wonder, of capturing what characterizes places. The search for density within the frame makes photography a physical experience - one that is particularly well represented here, in this multi-sensorial journey through India.
