D&AD, The Copy Book
Creative Bible
An updated edition of the best-selling reference work for copywriting
In 1995, the D&AD published a book on the art of writing for advertising. The then best-selling book remains an important reference work today?a bible for creative directors. D&AD and TASCHEN have joined forces to bring you an updated and redesigned edition of the publication. Regarded as the most challenging field in advertising, copywriting is usually left to the most talented professionals?often agency leaders or owners themselves. The book features a work selection and essays by 53 leading professionals in the world, including copywriting superstars such as David Abbott, Lionel Hunt, Steve Hayden, Dan Wieden, Neil French, Mike Lescarbeau, Adrian Holmes, and Barbara Nokes.
The lessons to be learned on these pages will help you create clearer and more persuasive arguments, whether you are writing an inspiring speech, an engaging web banner or a persuasive letter. This is not simply a “must-have” book for people in advertising and marketing, it is also a “should-have” for anyone who needs to involve or influence people, by webpage, on paper, or in person.
“The Copy Book convinced me that everyone in business should study the art of copywriting.”

Corbijn Allegro
Allegro war das zweite von mittlerweile 14 Photobüchern, die der holländische Photograph und Filmemacher Anton Corbijn bisher bei Schirmer/Mosel veröffentlicht hat. Nach Famouz, seinem Erstling von 1989, der ihn und seinen radikal neuen Blick auf die Großen der Pop- und Rockszene praktisch über Nacht weltberühmt gemacht hatte, markierte Allegro zwei Jahre später bereits eine vielversprechende Weiterentwicklung seines photographischen Spektrums: Neben Klassikern in Schwarzweiß - Bono, David Bowie, Miles Davis, Sting, Tom Waits und vielen anderen - enthielt der Band, den wir jetzt als zweisprachige, deutsch-englische Ausgabe neu auflegen, erstmals auch Portraits und experimentelle Arbeiten in Farbe.
Seitdem hat Anton Corbijn sein Portrait-Pantheon um die großen Namen aus der Welt der Musik und Kunst, der Literatur und des Films ständig erweitert. Heute zählt er nicht nur zu den wichtigsten Photographen seiner Generation, auch als Regisseur und Produzent mehrerer Kinofilme sorgte er international für Aufsehen, zuletzt mit der John Le Carré-Verfilmung A Most Wanted Man (2014).
Grannis, Surf Photography
At a time when surfing is more popular than ever, it’s fitting to look back at the years that brought the sport into the mainstream. Developed by Hawaiian Islanders over five centuries ago, surfing began to peak on the mainland in the 1950s—becoming not just a sport, but a way of life, admired and exported across the globe. One of the key image-makers from that period is LeRoy Grannis, a surfer since 1931, who began photographing the longboard era of the early 1960s in both California and Hawaii.
This edition brings back Grannis’s hair-raising, sold-out Collector’s Edition, curated from the photographer’s personal archives, to showcase his most vibrant work in a compact and affordable format—from the bliss of catching the perfect wave at San Onofre to dramatic wipeouts at Oahu’s famed North Shore.
An innovator in the field, Grannis suction-cupped a waterproof box to his board, enabling him to change film in the water and stay closer to the action than any other photographer of the time. He also covered the emerging surf lifestyle, from “surfer stomps” and hordes of fans at surf contests to board-laden woody station wagons along the Pacific Coast Highway. It is in these iconic images that a sport still in its adolescence embodied the free-spirited nature of an era—a time before shortboards and celebrity endorsements, when surfing was at its bronzed best.
The Short Story of Photography
The Short Story of Photography is a new and innovative introduction to the subject of photography. Simply constructed, the book explores 50 key photographs from the first experiments in the early 19th century to digital photography.
The design of the book allows the student or photography enthusiast to easily navigate their way around key genres, artists, themes, and techniques. Accessible and concise, the book explains how, why, and when certain photographs really have changed the world.
Koudelka Returning
The book presents a cross-section of the lifelong work of Josef Koudelka. It was published in conjunction with an exhibition organized at the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague in order to commemorate the photographer’s 80th birthday.
Inside, readers will find 350 photographs from the extensive set of works that Koudelka decided to donate to his country, representing all major cycles from his entire body of work (Beginnings, Experiments, Theatre, Gypsies, Invasion 68, Exiles, Panorama).
Published in Czech and English, this beautiful publication, prepared by Josef Koudelka in collaboration with Irena Šorfová, offers a comprehensive look at Koudelka’s life and work.

The Journal of a Skateboarder
At the age of twenty-nine, photographer Thomas Sweertvaegher spends most of his life on the road with friends, indulging his dual passions of photography and skating. Years of traveling the world together--always on the move and often carrying nothing more than a skateboard--have yielded the poignant photographs collected in this volume, where the skateboard remains a constant symbol of freedom, an extension of their identities, and the mark of their strong friendship.
Rolling on the margins of society, exploring the limits of life and his own young adulthood, Sweertvaegher captures whatever is happening around him during his travels. His shots take the reader on a journey, showing the highs and lows, bruises, and stitches of skating and street life, and ultimately celebrating the beauty such a life can bring.
While it captures Sweertvaegher's odyssey from a highly personal perspective, The Journal of a Skateboarder is at the same time a visual documentary of the skating world, and features key figures such as Axel Cruysberghs, Arto Saari, Dylan Rieder, and Rodney Mullen.
Všední den v české fotografii 50. a 60. let
Kniha představuje svébytný proud české fotografie padesátých a šedesátých let 20. století, pro nějž se později vžilo pojmenování fotografie všedního dne či poezie všedního dne ve fotografii. Tyto snímky, většinou pořízené v nejrůznějších uličních zákoutích našich měst, okouzlily ve své době prostřednictvím tisku a obrazových publikací obrovské množství lidí. Jejich tvůrci pak měli neobyčejně velké divácké publikum a také popularitu, o níž se dnešním výtvarným umělcům, snad až na nemnohé výjimky, může jen zdát. Doba žila fotografií a žila všedností. Mnohá díla však uchvacují dodnes nejen svou řemeslnou kvalitou a rafinovaností, ale s odstupem času rovněž hutnou informací o této zajímavé době, viděné dnes již prizmatem určité nostalgie. Z nejpřednějších českých a moravských fotografů sledovaného období jsou v knize zastoupeni například Jiří Jeníček, Václav Jírů, Jan Beran, Karel Otto Hrubý, Marie Šechtlová, Erich a Milada Einhornovi, Miloš Budík či Pavel Dias. Publikace je uzavřena výběrovou bibliografií, jmenným rejstříkem a anglickým resumé.

The Photographer in the Garden
This book explores our unique relationship with nature through the garden. From famous locations such as Versailles to the simplest home vegetable gardens, from worlds imagined by artists to vintage family photos, The Photographer in the Garden traces the garden’s rich history in photography and delights readers with spectacular pictures. The book explores gardens from many angles: the symbolism of plants and flowers, how humans cultivate the landscapes that surround them, the change of the seasons, and the gardener at work. An informative essay from curator Jamie M. Allen and picture-commentaries by Sarah Anne McNear broaden our understanding of photography and how it has been used to record the glory of the garden. Spanning the history of the medium itself, the book features photographers from all eras, including Anna Atkins, Karl Blossfeldt, Eugene Atget, Edward Steichen, Imogen Cunningham, Edward Weston, Stephen Shore, Robert Mapplethorpe, Nobuyoshi Araki, and Collier Schorr, to name a few. This sublime book brings together some of the most stunning photography in the history of the medium.
Gibson, Nude
Sensual and softly surreal, the nude photography of Ralph Gibson frames the female form both organically and graphically, referencing art history while also innovating in the arena of erotic imagery, at once summoning visceral sensation and calling out for tactile attention. Thumb through this exquisite tribute to the contours and curves of womanhood and experience the intimacy of the photographic lens.
Reviving TASCHEN’s sold-out Collector’s Edition, this tribute gathers the best of Gibson’s exquisite nudes alongside some of his most recent works in an accessible, revised format, complete with a fresh in-depth interview by Eric Fischl. Strikingly graphic, meticulously composed, and loaded with subtle provocations, the master photographer’s mysterious, dreamlike images pay homage to greats such as Man Ray and Edward Weston, while continually pursuing new frontiers.
"A photographer once said that beauty in women is endless. Perhaps it was I who said it. [...] I love photographing women and could say that the form of the female body is absolute and perfect." —Ralph Gibson
Brassai
Brassai (1899-1984) was a key member of a group of European and North American photographers who, over the course of the 20th century, managed to redefine the identity and enrich the potential of photography as an artistic medium.
The main theme of his work was Paris, the subject matter for some of his most significant and renowned images. He captured vibrant images of the daily life of the city, especially the vitality of its night-time atmosphere, in a vivid expression of the powerful artistic dimension of his perspective. The evocative capacity of his images achieved unquestionable recognition that spread from artistic photography circles to the tourist industry and the commercial photography circuit.
Fotografie především
Dějiny fotografie by mohly být zároveň dějinami zápasu o její uznání jako takzvaného vysokého umění. To přišlo velmi pozdě a se stejným zpožděním se na fotografii začalo nahlížet jako na sbírkový umělecký předmět hodný zájmu historiků umění.
V domácím, ale i ve světovém kontextu byla jednou z prvních institucí, jež fotografii v tomto ohledu vzala na milost Moravská galerie v Brně, kam do čela sbírky fotografie nastoupil v roce 1968 Antonín Dufek a jako emeritní kurátor zde působí dodnes.
Z velké části to byla právě jeho činnost, která české (a slovenské) fotografii vytvořila pevné místo v rámci dějin umění a také dokázala českou fotografii zviditelnit a proslavit v zahraničí.
Tato publikace je tak poctou osobnosti Antonína Dufka a jak jinak, je zcela věnována fotografii.
Kniha obsahuje třináct studií předních historiků a teoretiků umění, které doprovází rozsáhlý rozhovor s Antonínem Dufkem a také jeho výběrová bibliografie.

Susan Meiselas - Mediations
"For me, the essence of documentary photography has always been to do with evidence." --Susan Meiselas
A member of Magnum Photos since 1976, Susan Meiselas became known for her work in the conflict zones of Central America in the 1970s and '80s and for the strength of her color photography. Covering many subjects and countries, from war to human-rights issues and from cultural identity to the sex industry, Meiselas uses photography, film, video and sometimes archive material, as she relentlessly explores and develops narratives integrating the participation of her subjects in her works. Meiselas constantly questions the photographic process and her role as witness.
Presenting a selection of works from the 1970s through the present day, Susan Meiselas: Mediations retraces her trajectory from the 1970s to the present. Published to accompany a major traveling retrospective of the photographer's work, it features an illustrious list of contributors that includes Ariella Azoulay, Eduardo Cadava and Kristin Lubben, among others.
Susan Meiselas (born 1948) studied at Sarah Lawrence College and Harvard University, taking up photography in the early 1970s. She is credited with being one of the first to work with color in documentary photography, a controversial decision when she was shooting the conflict in Nicaragua in the late 1970s. Meiselas joined Magnum Photos in 1976 and has worked as a freelance photographer since then.
Jean Pagliuso - In Plain Sight
Jean Pagliuso: In Plain Sight surveys the multifaceted career of photographer Jean Pagliuso (born 1941). Pagliuso began her career in fashion, shooting for magazines like Mademoiselle, and rose to collaborate with film studios and directors, taking photographs on the sets of movies like American Gigolo and Three Women. In the mid-1990s, Pagliuso shifted to experimenting with photographic printing processes--a concern that still animates her work--but her experience in the fashion and motion picture industries continues to inflect her photography, imbuing it with a subtle sense of theatricality. Whether Pagliuso is photographing the expansive deserts of New Mexico, the pyramids of Egypt, fashion models or chickens, she produces engaging and ethereal images with an indelible presence. This comprehensive monograph on Pagliuso's career of over five decades features an introduction and personal essay by Jean Pagliuso.
Wim Wendres Instant Stories
Globetrotting filmmaker Wim Wenders always takes his old panorama camera with him, using it whenever the sheer wealth of what he sees and the impression it leaves on him breaks the normal scale of things. Infinite landscapes, endless horizons, deserts, and mountain ranges overwhelm by their emptiness and silence, street fronts in Havana, Houston, Berlin, or Jerusalem offer deep insights into the shallows of civilization. Wenders' photographs are pictures of a world almost devoid of humans, a natural or man-made world viewed from a distance. They shed light on the many guises the surface of the earth dons and attest to Wenders' contemplative and amazed gaze. This gaze, of course, didn't stop at September 11 and delivered haunting photos of Ground Zero taken shortly after the attack. With poetic comments by the artist on all the pictures, the book is both a portrait of the world as encountered by the photographer and a portrait of the photographer as reflected in his vision of the world.
Flora Magnifica
This sumptuous book is not a reference work, nor it is simply a collection of beautiful flowers. It is the product of a longstanding collaboration between renowned flower artist Makoto and botanical photographer Shunsuke Shiinoki. Working together, they have selected hundreds of plant species and arranged them in striking combinations that could never exist in the natural world, so creating a unique floral aesthetic.
The result is a series of dense, luxuriant images, rich in colour and texture, in which nature and artifice are skilfully mingled. The four chapters are themed according to the cycle of the seasons: the freshness and new life of spring, the exuberance and abundance of summer, the fading grandeur of autumn and the deepening shadows of winter. Recalling the opulent still-life paintings of the 17th century, the photographs not only capture the surface beauty of the flowers, but suggest the burgeoning life brimming within them as well as its transience.
From the sensuality of opening petals to the unfurling elegance of fern fronds, these gorgeous displays are vividly preserved in a meditative and inspirational book that will enchant all lovers of nature and art.

The text is all by Joel Meyerowitz himself and the book coincides with a major retrospective show in Berlin
