India
Snow-capped Himalayan mountains, palm-fringed sandy beaches, impenetrable tropical jungles and majestic tigers, wild elephants and brilliant birds are just some of the attractions India has to offer in over 400 photographs in this splendid volume. Besides the scenic beauty, the cultural aspects and the people make this country very special.
Morocco
Morocco, situated between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, is culturally, culinarily, and architecturally influenced by Berbers, Arabs, and Europeans. The country's diversity is reflected in the landscape of Mediterranean coastal regions in the north and west, the high mountains in the interior, and the Sahara. In over 500 photographs, this volume shows the multi-faceted landscape and oriental culture of Morocco.
Guatemala
Guatemala is considered the land of eternal spring. Tropical rain forests, mountainous highlands, bubbling volcanoes, black lava sand beaches, fresh fruits and strange smells - this illustrated book shows the fascinatingly colourful facets of the country and gives insights into another world.
Flanders
Proud towers, pituresque market squares with magnificent town halls, canals and bridges: Flanders owes everything to the sea and trade. With its cities like Bruges, Antwerp, and Ghent, Flanders has been one of the most important centers of Western art and culture since the middle Ages. The traces of flemish masters such as Rubens or Van Eyck are much a part of Flanders as the desire for pleasure and good food. It is no wonder then that the creative Flemings also draw comics, brew 100 different beers, invent chocolates, cook masterfully, and of course make the best French fries.
Toscana
Tuscany captivates with its gently rolling hilly landscape, its cypress avenues and pine forests, its magnificent castles, palaces, and country villas amidst of blooming vineyards and olive groves. Cities like Pisa, Florence, or Siena with outstanding cultural treasures, tiny mountain villages, and last but not least "la dolce vita" make the region one of the most popular in Italy.
Norway
Norway is known for its mountains, glaciers, and deeply cut coastal fjords. Bergen, with its typical colorful wooden houses, is a popular starting point for boat trips into the dramatic Sognefjord. This book shows in almost 500 pictures the Scandinavian country in its scenic variety but also in its seasonal diversity. Snow, ice, and polar lights in winter, and the special light of the midnight sun in summer.
Portugal
Portugal has developed a special cultural landscape due to its location between the Atlantic Ocean and neighboring Spain. North African, Moorish influences have shaped a special cultural landscape that combines with a multi-faceted landscape. In Portugal you will find impressive mountain ranges, dry plains, gentle hills, and rocky cliffs. In over 450 pictures, this volume shows Portugal's extraordinary diversity.
Costa Rica
Costa Rica captivates with tropical rain forest, high mountain ranges, volcanoes, and fertile high valleys with coffee and fruit plantations. The two coasts of the country boast fine white sandy beaches, coral reefs, and palm groves. Of special fascination is the versatile fauna and flora which is protected in twenty-seven natural parks. In 280 photographs, this illustrated book shows the impressive beauty of this green oasis.
Argentina
The name Argentina already sounds auspicious, being derived from the Latin argentum, or silver. Between the Atlantic coast in the east and the Andes in the west streches the vast grassland of the Pampas and Patagonias. Here you can still experience the wild romanticism of the gaucho culture. The natural wonders of the impressive Iguazu waterfalls in the border region to Brazil, and the whales and elephant seals near the Valdéz peninsula, all offer unique worlds of experience, as do the spectacular glacier landscape of Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego's lighthouse at the end of the World.
New Zealand
New Zealand-the country chosen by God, "God's own country," as the locals affectionately call their island twins, evokes associations with uniquely untouched nature, green hills and crystal clear lakes, lonely white and black sandy beaches and emerald green bays-but also ice-cold glaciers reaching into the rainforest, wide fjord landscapes, thunderous waterfalls, and a geothermal wonderland with smoking volcanoes, numerous hot springs, and spouting geysers.
Sweden
This volume illustrates the fascinating diversity and beauty of Sweden. Sweden, a symbol of Scandinavian idyll, inspires with its falun-red wooden houses surrounded by dense forests, with its quiet bays, long sandy beaches, lighthouses and windmills, colorful boathouses, the glittering sea between archipelagos, the infinite number of lakes, the lonely and wide snow landscapes, dog sleds, reindeer, and moose.
China

Mexico
Chile stretches along the Pacific coast of South America, west of the Andes, and is the longest country in the world from north to south. The contrasting landscape offers the Atacama Desert in the north - the driest area on earth - and rainforests, lake landscapes, and glaciers in the south. Over 400 photographs present this country from north to south with its fascinating world of desert landscapes, volcanoes, glaciers, and a rich flora and fauna.
South Africa, Namibia & Botswana
In South Africa, at the southern tip of the African continent, one finds extreme deserts in the Kalahari at the border to Namibia, subtropical forests in the southeast, but also mountain ranges like the Drakensberg parallel to the Indian Ocean. Beaches, lush vineyards, and rugged cliffs at the Cape of Good Hope mark the diversity of the country. The Kruger National Park is home to large game in the interior. Namibia, located in southwestern Africa, is characterized by the Namib Desert along the Atlantic coast. To the north is the Etosha National Park, whose salt pan attracts numerous wild animals such as rhinos and giraffes. The landscape of Botswana, a landlocked country in South Africa, is desert on the one hand and a huge river delta with seasonal flooding on the other hand, a habitat for lush vegetation and many animals. This volume presents these three states in over 500 pictures. Natural spectacle and animal world could not be more contrasting.
South Pacific
When you think of South Sea, you think of paradise. The natural beauties of Oceania's island world, scattered far across the South Pacific and divided into the cutural areas of Polynesia, Micronesia, and Melanesia, are overwhelming. But besides lonely palm islands, ever-warm lagoons, and colourful coral reefs, there are also more rugged beauties such as the volcanic-islands of Marquesas, wheere beaches are rare.
Cuba
Cuba is synonymous with sugar and cigars, rum and revolution, classic cars and socialism, dream beaches and music. But it is also a country that has protected one-fifth of its surface area. This book presents fascinating nature of the country and its diverse culture in 300 pictures.
Aperture 240 - Native America
This fall, as debates around nationalism and borders in North America reach a fever pitch, Aperture magazine releases "Native America," a special issue about photography and Indigenous lives, guest edited by the artist Wendy Red Star. "Native America" considers the wide-ranging work of photographers and lens-based artists who pose challenging questions about land rights, identity and heritage, and histories of colonialism. Several contributors revisit or reconfigure photographic archives--from writer Rebecca Bengal's look at the works of Richard Throssel and Horace Poolaw, to artist Duane Linklater's intervention in a 1995 issue of Aperture, "Strong Hearts," the magazine's first volume devoted to Native American photographers. "I was thinking about young Native artists," says Red Star, "and what would be inspirational and important for them as a road map." That map spans a diverse array of intergenerational image-making, counting as lodestars the meditative assemblages of Kimowan Metchewais and installation works of Alan Michelson, the stylish self-portraits of Martine Gutierrez, and the speculative mythologies of Karen Miranda Rivadeneira and Guadalupe Maravilla. "Native America" also features contributions by distinguished writers and curators, including strikingly personal reflections from acclaimed poets Tommy Pico and Natalie Diaz. With additional essential contributions from Rebecca Belmore and Julian Brave NoiseCat, as well as a portfolio from Red Star, the issue looks into the historic, often fraught relationship between photography and Native representation, while also offering new perspectives by emerging artists who reimagine what it means to be a citizen in North America today.
The Photograph as Contemporary Art (World of Art)
In the 21st century photography has come of age as a contemporary art form. Almost two centuries after photographic technology was first invented, the art world has fully embraced it as a legitimate medium, equal in status to painting and sculpture. This book provides an introduction to the extraordinary range of contemporary art photography, from portraits of intimate life to highly staged, 'directorial' spectacle. The vast span of photographers whose work is reproduced includes established artists such as Isa Genzken, Jeff Wall, Sophie Calle, Thomas Demand, Nan Goldin and Sherry Levine, as well as emerging talents such as Sara VanDerBeek, Rashid Johnson, Viviane Sassen and Amalia Ulman. This new edition revitalizes previous discussion of works from the 2000s through dialogue with more recent practice. Adding to the wide selection featured of work, Cotton celebrates a new generation of artists, who are shaping photography as a culturally significant medium for our current socio-political climate.

Corbijn's portraits of figures such as Alexander McQueen, Tom Waits and Naomi Campbell have now achieved iconic status. As visual director behind Depeche Mode and through his decades-long collaboration with U2 and others, he has made his mark on the way we look at an important aspect of contemporary culture. With MOOD/MODE, Anton Corbijn shows that fashion is everywhere. The book contains some 100 photographs, many of them published for the first time, and its world premiere will be in Knokke-Heist, running from 4 April to 5 July 2020.

He is best known for his black and white photographs of actors, musicians and artists, though he cannot be seen as a celebrity photographer - rather as someone who captures personalities that intrigue him. Some of his photographs have become iconic images of modern pop culture. Besides his photographic oeuvre, Corbijn has designed stages, directed music videos and directed feature films. In 2007 he made his film debut with Control, about the life of Joy Division singer Ian Curtis.
