Pepper album to their last photo session together at John's house. Each page is brimming with personal stories and rare vintage images.

The Camera at War


It is said that the first casualty of war is truth. But in the arena of war photography, the truth is never simple. Drawing on an incredible range of imagery from the Imperial War Museum's vast collection and other major archives around the globe, expert curator Hilary Roberts presents a new perspective on the role of image manipulation in this field over the past 170 years,exploring the consequences for our understanding of historic and contemporary conflicts. From the staged scenes and hand-coloured Daguerreotypes of the Crimean War at the very beginning of conflict photography to the AI-generated protest and propaganda imagery of today, Roberts explores the myriad ways in which layers of meaning can be added, erased or changed completely. As The Camera at War so powerfully reveals, sometimes this has been done in order to present a closer approximation of the truth, and sometimes for the causes of national morale, subterfuge and control of the winning narrative.

Spanning over three decades, this extraordinary book showcases the enduring collaboration between a legendary musician and a renowned Dutch photographer-a creative symbiosis that has produced some of the most memorable images in rock and roll history.

Public Spaces, NY


In their new book, Michael Meredith and Hilary Sample, principals of acclaimed New York-based architecture firm MOS, offer a deep dive into the ever-changing nature of public spaces, revealing their complexity, instability, and contested nature. Through a focused examination of New York City-one of the most densely populated and symbolically charged urban environments-the volume explores how public spaces are shaped by legal frameworks, private interests, and community needs. Drawing on historical context, legal principles, and detailed mapping of Manhattan's public spaces, Meredith and Sample illustrate how spaces like parks, sidewalks, plazas, and even cemeteries serve as arenas for expression, conflict, and negotiation. From anti-homeless measures to inaccessible infrastructure: they highlight the ways in which public spaces can both include and exclude, reflecting the larger social and political structures that govern them. A sequel to their precious Vacant Spaces, NY (2021), Public Spaces, NY invites an imagination of a more inclusive, equitable vision for the shared urban spaces we all navigate.

Vivienne Westwood - Divatikonok VIII.


„A múlt ismerete távlatot kölcsönöz a jelenhez, és betekintést a jövőbe. Minden ötletem a múlt eszméinek tanulmányozásából származik. Abban a reményben tervezek ruhákat, hogy megtöröm a hagyományokat.” Vivienne Westwood Dizájner, rebellis, forradalmár. Dame Vivienne Westwood punk volt a divatban és a politikában egyaránt, aki egyedi módokat talált a hagyományok felforgatására, a határok átlépésére és a status quo megkérdőjelezésére. A Divatikonok sorozat VIII. kötete egy stíluslegenda életét és márkáját ünnepli, a szabás és a fűzőkészítés mesteri ismeretétől kezdve egész addig a kreatív csavarig, amivel a tervezőnő a tartánt és a Harris Tweedet használta. Ez a lenyűgöző könyv a kollekciók, kifutók és kosztümök gyönyörű képei mellett hiteles, magával ragadó szövegével tiszteleg egy olyan agent provocateur előtt, akinek örökségére mindig emlékezni fognak.

Helen Levitt


Published to accompany a major touring exhibition, this is the most comprehensive survey to date of the groundbreaking American photographer Helen Levitt. Over six decades, Helen Levitt (1913–2009) explored the streets of her native New York with a handheld camera. Influenced by Henri Cartier-Bresson, she found inspiration in the theatre and spontaneity of the street, capturing everyday moments in urban life and forging a distinct visual language from her private observations. Exuding a keen warmth and sensitivity for human gesture and movement, her photographs capture, in James Agee’s words, the ‘pure spontaneity of true folk art’. Accompanying a major touring exhibition of Levitt’s work, the first of its kind to draw from her complete archive, this ambitious publication showcases her entire output. It not only includes her best-known photographs, but also features rarely seen early works from her first year using a Leica and all fifty works from the original edit of her classic 1965 photobook A Way of Seeing, with record prints preserved by Levitt herself. Essays by a range of scholars and specialists hone in on key thematic, technical and biographical aspects of Levitt’s life and work, including an examination of the photos she took during her trip to Mexico in 1941, her innovative use of colour in the 1950s and her late work from the 1980s, providing an authoritative insight into one of the most influential photographers of the 20th century.

David Gilmour — Luck and Strange — Studio/Live


This intimate photo chronicle by Polly Samson documents both the recording of David Gilmour's No. 1 album Luck and Strange and the acclaimed tour which saw the Pink Floyd legend playing sellout shows in Rome, London, LA and New York. Samson, who is Gilmour’s partner and creative collaborator, as well as an acclaimed novelist / photographer in her own right, captures the process as the album takes shape: from conception and recording, off-duty and studio immersion, to release and live performance; from candid behind-the-scenes shots, to theatrical stage moments. We see an artist at work, the collaborative process, the moments of light relief – and the focus as the work takes flight. The book features the unmistakable hand lettering of Anton Corbijn on the cover and throughout, plus an interview by rock photographer Jill Furmanovsky with Polly Samson that sheds light on a photographer’s craft, as well as providing insights into Samson's relationship with Gilmour. The foreword is written by the late Alan Yentob.

The Story of the Interior


An exhilarating and eclectic volume on the social, cultural and technological history of interior design from prehistory to the present day, revealing how spaces shape our lives and why it matters. From traditional nomadic dwellings to state-of-the-art airports, through monumental temples and Baroque palaces to high-rise apartments and high-fashion boutiques, The Story of the Interior explores an exciting array of inside spaces from around the world to reveal how the fundamental elements of a room have evolved and endured. Organized in three parts – The Room, The Private Interior and The Public Interior – the book presents a fascinating account of how the interior has been conceived and thought of from antiquity to the present day. By calling attention to the most basic elements of inside space – walls, doors, windows, furniture, ambience to name a few – this engaging exploration delves into how private and public interiors actively shape the way we live, work, learn and play. The book spans a wide range of iconic and offbeat examples drawn from the world of architecture, urbanism and furniture design, as well as art installations and imagined spaces. Brooker deftly guides us through interiors as diverse as Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater, Olafur Eliasson’s The Weather Project, the Prada store in Marfa, Texas, and Sou Fujimoto’s NA House, as well as the rock-cut Buddhist temples of India, medieval European castles and ancient Egyptian tombs, to unveil the drastically different and surprisingly similar spaces that surround us. The result is a fascinating tour of global interiors, tracing the genesis and evolution of these places and how they help us understand human presence and behaviour.

Estetika architektúry


Ktoré budovy sú krásne? Z filozofického hľadiska je táto otázka skôr okrajovou témou. Verejne sa však o nej diskutuje zoširoka a často kontroverzne. Günter Figal vo svojej knihe využíva takéto debaty ako podnet na hľadanie spoľahlivých kritérií pre estetické hodnotenie architektúry – kritérií, ktoré platia rovnako pre krásne staré budovy ako aj pre krásne nové. Kedy je budova umeleckým dielom? Aby to mohol rozhodnúť, Figal objasňuje, čo vlastne budova je a ako možno presnejšie určiť jej krásu. Svoje úvahy ilustruje na viacerých rozličných príkladoch: na stavbách Franka Lloyda Wrighta, Ludwiga Miesa van der Rohe, Le Corbusiera, Chipperfield Architects, Petra Zumthora a Kenga Kumu – na obytných domoch, múzeách a kostoloch, na meditačnom dome, cisárskej vidieckej vile v Japonsku a na konferenčnom centre vo Weil am Rhein. Figal opisované budovy nielen videl, ale ich aj fotografoval, takže jeho text sa navzájom dopĺňa s viac než šesťdesiatimi fotografiami. Z nemeckého originálu Ästhetik der Architektur, vydaného modo Verlag vo Freiburgu im Breisgau v roku 2021, preložil Rastislav Nemec.
