Paris 1857-1927
A flâneur and photographer at once, Eugene Atget (1857–1927) was obsessed with walking the streets. After trying his hand at painting and acting, the native of Libourne turned to photography and moved to Paris. He supplied studies for painters, architects, and stage designers, but became enraptured by what he called “documents” of the city and its environs. His scenes rarely included people, but rather the architecture, landscape, and artifacts that made up the societal and cultural stage.
Atget was not particularly renowned during his lifetime but in the 1920s came to theattention of the Dada and Surrealist avant-garde through Man Ray. Four of his images, with their particular fusion of mimesis and mystery, appeared in the surrealist journal, La Révolution Surréaliste, while Ray and much of his artistic circle purchased Atget prints. Atget’s fame grew after his death, with several articles and a monograph by Berenice Abbott. Several leading photographers, including Walker Evans and Bill Brandt, have since acknowledged their debt to Atget.
This fresh TASCHEN edition gathers some 500 photographs from the Atget archives at Musée Carnavalet and the Bibliotheque Historique de la Ville de Paris to celebrate his outstanding eye for the urban environment and evocation of a Paris gone by. Down main streets and side streets, past shops and churches, through courtyards and arcades and the 20 arrondissements, we find a unique portrait of a beloved city and the making of a modern photographic master.

The Theatre of Apparitions
The Theatre of Apparitions is a highly anticipated body of work by one of the most original image-makers of our times, whose remarkable artistic trajectory spans the past 40 years. This book is the culmination of his ongoing study of the connections between photography, drawing, the mind and the body. Created between the years 2004 and 2008, these 90-odd black-and-white images encourage viewers to delve deep into the darkest part of their psyches. The images in this new monograph were inspired by the simple act of drawing on windows - a practice that Ballen observed first-hand in many communities. From there, he started to experiment using different spray paints on glass and then 'drawing on' or removing the paint with a sharp object to let natural light through. Finally, he photographed the results with a macro lens using black-and-white film. These black, dimensionless spaces effectively operate as canvases onto which Ballen projects pictorially his thoughts and emotions, creating, in effect, a theatre of the mind. The plates are separated into seven chapters or 'acts', with each one introduced by a text written by Ballen himself. Carving out a realm that is both earthly and otherworldly, physical and spiritual, his work transcends all traditional concepts of photography.

What the Weather Was Like
Can a photograph capture the sensation of a warm spring breeze or the smell of freshly fallen snow?

Circus Sideshow
Fotografie Antonína Kratochvíla z rozsáhlého cyklu Sideshow vznikly v Gibsotonu na Floridě, v centru specifické odnože zábavního průmyslu.
Vedle tradičních provazochodců, žonglérů, hadích žen a chrličů ohně na nich defilují také nejrůznější fyzicky poznamenaní lidé, kteří jsou divákům ukazováni jako svého druhu bizarní bytosti. V roce 1974 byly fotografie publikovány v časopise American Photo a nyní poprvé vycházejí jako ucelený soubor v knižní podobě. Sideshow můžeme považovat za první důležitou zastávku Antonína Kratochvíla na jeho cestě v hledání podstaty lidské i umělecké existence. Způsob práce se světlem či kompozice obrazu předznamenává jeho další tvorbu, díky níž se stal světově uznávaným fotografem.
Text napsal Petr Volf.
Antonín Kratochvíl’s photographs from his extensive photo essay Sideshow were taken in Gibsonton, Florida, the center of a very distinct branch of the entertainment industry. Besides the usual tightrope walkers, jugglers, snake ladies, and fire eaters, a vast array of people bearing various disfigurements also march past, exhibited to audiences as freaks of nature. First published in American Photo in 1974, the complete set of photographs is now being presented for the first time in a book. Sideshow can be considered Antonín Kratochvíl’s first important stop on his journey in search of the nature of human and artistic existence. The way in which he works with light and composition presages his future work, which earned him international acclaim as a photographer.

Iconic images like the Abbey Road crosswalk are deeply inscribed in our collective memory, but we know few details about the photographer of the image. All of these? and more?are included in this compendium of electrifying images and the albums they grace. Total Records reveals the artists behind some of the most striking images on vinyl sleeves and takes us on a journey through the cultural history of the twentieth century.
Paolo Ventura: Short Stories
Paolo Ventura’s Short Stories are whimsical narratives told through pictures?tales of love, war, and family?where things magically appear or disappear, set in an imaginary past of World War II Italy. Much like in silent films, the drama unfolds with no words or captions. For these works, Ventura constructed life-sized sets, in which he situated himself and members of his family (casting his son, wife, and twin brother as actors), in stories that are at once charming and disquieting. While seemingly simple, Ventura’s vignettes come with larger implications: brothers who encounter each other by surprise on the battlefield, jugglers who appear from above, a man who packs himself into his suitcase, a small-town magician who accidently makes his son disappear for real, and many others. Here, Ventura has built a world of realistic proportions and actors, in fantastical tales and against painted backdrops?challenging notions of what is real and what is make-believe. This book collects the entire series of Ventura’s Short Stories together for the first time, including three previously unpublished, and offers a glimpse into the artist’s extraordinary imagination. Paolo Ventura (born in Milan, 1968) graduated from the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan in 1991. His work has been exhibited internationally, including at Forma International Center for Photography, Milan; Rencontres de la Photographie, Arles, France; and Maison Européenne de la Photographie, Paris. He also created a series of works for the Italian pavilion at the 2011 Venice Biennale. His works have been acquired by prominent collections, including the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.; and the Margulies Collection, Miami. His monographs include War Souvenir (2006), Winter Stories (Aperture and Contrasto, 2009), and The Automaton (2012).

Rok v divočine
Arolla Film prichádza s novou fotografickou knihou!
Jej autor, Karol Kaliský, v nej predstavuje najlepšie fotografie, ktoré sa mu v tatranskej divočine podarilo urobiť počas posledných 12 rokov.
Stovky dní v teréne, Karolove autentické zážitky a stále rastúce skúsenosti s fotografovaním robia z knihy dielo, ktoré bude v Tatrách ťažké prekonať.
Z jednotlivých obrazov sa vás priam dotýka atmosféra chladných hmlistých rán aj pokoja jesenných večerov. Dych vyrážajú vzácne zábery tých najskrytejších zvierat: medvieďa prvýkrát vychádzajúce z brloha, vĺča v horskom pralese, rysia rodinka v kosodrevine, či pstruhy ukryté v hlbočinách rieky Belá sú len niektoré z nich. Karol odfotografoval scény aké väčšina ľudí nikdy neuvidí.
Aj to je dôvod prečo by kniha Rok v divočine nemala chýbať v knižnici žiadneho milovníka prírody.
Čertovo břemeno
Budeme-li v Česku hledat místo s nejvyšší koncentrací kvalitní současné architektury na jednoho obyvatele, prvenství si překvapivě odnese Alenina Lhota na Táborsku. V této jihočeské osadě je vedeno osm adres a trvale na nich pobývá pouhých deset obyvatel. V závěru dvacátého a v průběhu jednadvacátého století však v Alenině Lhotě vzniklo několik progresivních staveb, které dokonale přispěly k proměně její identity. Došlo k tomu nikoliv náhodou. Všechny byly financovány rodinami Jiřího a Petra Němcových, bez jakýchkoliv dotací. Díky jejich vytrvalosti a velkorysosti vznikl golfový areál Čertovo břemeno, jehož stavby, navržené architektem Stanislavem Fialou, svým výrazným sepětím s přírodou přesahují nejenom území regionu, ale i hranice České republiky. Kniha renomovaného novináře a spisovatele Petra Volfa představuje krok za krokem – od prvotního hledání místa pro víkendový odpočinek až po otevření osmnáctijamkového hřiště s nádhernou klubovnou organicky vyrůstající z okolní krajiny – cestu k tomuto architektonickému zázraku. Může sloužit coby návod svého druhu jak posílit genia loci a probudit opomíjené, zdánlivě ztracené místo opět k životu…

Capturing Fashion
Groundbreaking fashion photographer Gleb Derujinsky invigorated the fashion industry with his glamorous, exotic, and often unconventional photographs. Gleb Derujinsky?s career as a fashion photographer took hold in the golden age of European haute couture, when Balenciaga and Pierre Balmain were at the top of their game and Yves Saint Laurent and Karl Lagerfeld were designing their first runway shows. Although air travel was still reserved for the happy few, Derujinsky convinced his editors Carmel Snow and Diana Vreeland to send him around the world to photograph beautiful models?like Carmen Dell?Orefice and his future wife, Ruth Neumann?draped in expensive gowns juxtaposed against rough desert dunes or a glittering ocean at sunset. His ideas were revolutionary and they gave rise to the mystique and glamour that is now pervasive in fashion.Derujinsky was the quintessential Renaissance man?photographer, award-winning cinematographer and commercial director, inventor, WWII veteran, world traveler, jewelry designer, musician, ski instructor, Ferrari America race-car driver, and champion glider pilot. His passion for photography started at the tender age of six, by ten, he had built a photo enlarger, and as a teenager, he became the youngest member of the Camera Club of New York. His photographs appeared in major lifestyle magazines and extensively in Harper?s Bazaar from 1950 to 1970. This is the first monograph to celebrate his major contributions to the history of fashion and photography.
Edward Burtynsky - Essential Elements
Edward Burtynsky (b. 1955) is one of a generation of photographers, including Andreas Gursky and Thomas Struth, who seek to portray the visible outcomes of a globalized economy and humankind's impact upon environments around the world. He has achieved global recognition with his large-scale photographs and project-based monographs, such as Quarries, Oil and Water, all of which have resulted in popular touring exhibitions and, in the case of Water, a feature-length documentary film entitled Watermark. However, while Burtynsky's global standing is without question, no comprehensive retrospective of his career to date exists. Edited and curated by William A. Ewing, Edward Burtynsky: Essential Elements provides an overview of Burtynsky's work across four decades, including both iconic images and previously unpublished photographs. It dissolves previous project-based definitions to set out Burtynsky's oeuvre as five free-flowing sections that provide a sense of both his visual language and his exploration of the dilemmas at the heart of our globalized world. Each of the five sections is interleaved with a selection of texts from previous publications and articles on Burtynsky that work in concert with the photographs to provide a complete understanding of Burtynsky's view of the world. With an introduction by William A. Ewing and an essay by Joshua Schuster, this book provides both an entirely new way of seeing Burtynsky's work for those who already follow his career and an accessible introduction for those encountering his photographs for the first time.
