John Malkovich and Sandro Miller pay homage to the icons of photography that have changed our collective imagination.

Meryl Streep is a myth, even without the celebrated portrait taken by Annie Leibovitz in 1981, and another myth – John Malkovich – pays heartfelt homage to her talent, with the complicity of Sandro Miller in a project designed to bring to life the works of master photographers that have changed our collective imagination. In this original project, photographer Sandro Miller uses the celebrated American actor to recreate some of the most famous portraits of all time. Malkovich Malkovich Malkovich! is a sort of magic formula with no need for Photoshop, relying simply on the actor’s chameleon-like talent to open the doors of our imagination.

Thanks to meticulous make-up sessions, costumes and sets, coming after months of research, Malkovich becomes Albert Einstein sticking his tongue out at Arthur Sasse (1951), Che Guevara as captured by Alberto Korda (1960), Hitchcock, the master of suspense, as portrayed ironically by Albert Watson, and Jack Nicholson behind the mask of the Joker by Herb Ritts (1988). Miller’s impressive talent for lighting and editing takes care of all the rest. Establishing a profound connection with the subjects and authors, styles and artistic languages, Malkovich represents Robert Mapplethorpe’s transgressive Self and animates Andres Serrano’s plastic crucifix (1987), Andy Warhol’s pop art and the fragrance of Jean Paul Gaultier’s vibrant spirit immortalized by Pierre et Gilles (1990). With a fur wrapped around his head, Malkovich becomes Mick Jagger as depicted by David Bailey (1964) and even transforms, naked and covered with bees, into Richard Avedon’s famous Beekeeper. The same versatility allows him to embrace his Yoko Ono, lying beside her nude like John Lennon before Annie Leibovitz’s camera in the award-winning shot taken only a few hours before he was murdered.

About the Author:

Sandro Miller (1958) is considered one of the world’s foremost advertising photographers. He is known for his expressive images and his close collaboration with the actor John Malkovich and other members of the Steppenwolf Theater Company of Chicago.

Мен Рей (1890-1976) займає визначне місце в історії мистецтва 20-го століття. Різносторонній художник, він був піонером сучасного мистецтва. Його поліморфні роботи охоплюють усі галузі образотворчого мистецтва: фотографію, асамбляж, скульптуру, живопис, малюнок, кіно…
Мен Рей прибув до Парижа з Нью-Йорка в липні 1921 року. Еммануїл Радінський, народившись у Філадельфії в 1890 році в єврейській родині російського походження, взяв собі псевдонім із двох складів: «Людина», чоловік (скорочення від Менні, його дитяче прізвисько) та «Промінь», промінь світла. Художник, кресляр, збирач предметів, у Нью-Йорку він часто відвідує інтелектуальні та мистецькі кола, разом зі своєю першою дружиною відкриває для себе європейський авангард, який відкриває для нього французьку літературу… Він потоваришував з Марселем Дюшаном, з яким співпрацював у художніх творах.

Ця дружба триватиме все їхнє життя. У зв'язку з рухом Європейський дадаїзм вони опублікували єдиний випуск журналу «Нью-Йорк дадаїзм», який привернув дуже мало уваги. Розчарований та зневірений, Ман Рей робить висновок, що «дадаїзм не може жити в Нью-Йорку». У нього лише одна мета: приєднатися до Дюшана, який щойно повернувся до Парижа...

Celebrated Italian photographer Marco Anelli captures the construction of Magazzino Italian Art, a new Hudson Valley institution dedicated to postwar and contemporary Italian art.

The transformation and expansion of a 1960s factory building in Cold Spring, NY to house an extraordinary art collection has been documented by Marco Anelli, Magazzino Italian Art’s first artist in residence. From initial excavations to the installation of artworks in the galleries, Anelli traces Spanish architect Miguel Quismondo’s plan to create a space that bridges the artistic legacy of the Hudson Valley with the demands of ambitious contemporary artworks. Several essays and examples of founders Nancy Olnick and Giorgio Spanu’s stunning Italian art collection enliven Anelli’s series of landscape photographs and portraits.

About the Author:

Marco Anelli’s publications include works on sculpture and architecture. Vittorio Calabrese is the director of Magazzino Italian Art. Nancy Olnick and Giorgio Spanu are the co-founders of Magazzino Italian Art. Manuel Blanco is an architect, curator, and professor at the School of Architecture of Madrid (ETSAM). Alberto Campo Baeza is an architect and professor at ETSAM. Marvin Heiferman is an American curator and writer.

For its 100th anniversary, the construction company Holcim has commissioned a unique artistic memento. Star photographer Marco Grob along with the artistic duo of hiepler, brunier, were invited to photograph the company's workers and its workplaces. The result is a stunning homage to 80,000 employees in 70 countries. With his sensitive yet direct portraits, Marco Grob captures the face of the company. His images provide an engaging contrast to the abstract beauty of hiepler, brunier,'s architectural studies of Holcim's workplaces. The resulting series of black-and-white photography has great resonance and pays fitting tribute to the New Objective tradition of August Sander and Albert Renger-Patzsch.

The exclusive world of one of the twentieth century’s most glamorous and alluring women, as seen through her private homes and gardens. Nicknamed "The Swan" by Richard Avedon when he photographed her iconic portrait in 1953, Marella Agnelli is not only one of the great beauties of the last century, but also the most elegant and cultured of that exclusive club.

Born the Neapolitan princess Marella Caracciolo di Castagneto, she became Marella Agnelli with her marriage to Gianni Agnelli, the Fiat industrialist. However, her innate style dates back to her New York internship with photographer Erwin Blumenfeld, and she was a Vogue contributor in the 1950s and ’60s as well as appearing in its pages. One of the most photographed women of the jet-set society, she was captured by Avedon as well as Irving Penn, Henry Clarke, Horst, and Robert Doisneau, among others. Agnelli collaborated with the best artists and designers of her day, with her many residences as their palette. From Italian interior design legend Renzo Mongiardino — who worked on her New York apartment alongside a young Peter Marino — to Gae Aulenti, the important Italian architect, who built her homes in Turin and Marrakech, Agnelli created a series of extraordinary houses and gardens, full of timeless elegance, invaluable art, and groundbreaking decorating ideas. With ten residences spread throughout Turin, Rome, Milan, New York, St. Moritz, and Marrakech, ranging from regally classic villas to ultramodern apartments, her impeccable taste shines through in these gorgeous interiors and gardens.

One of the famous modern fairy tales of love, glamour, and heartbreak, Marella Agnelli has become an icon of our times.

Ідеальний посібник з американської фотографки Мері Еллен Марк, найвідомішої своєю фотожурналістикою, документальною фотографією, портретною та рекламною фотографією.

Роботи Мері Еллен Марк (1940-2015) свідчать про її захоплення людським буттям та її дар тісно взаємодіяти зі своїми об'єктами зйомки. Вміло вписуючись у незвичайне або ізольоване середовище, вона подорожувала по всьому світу та створила цілий ряд робіт, що поєднували фотожурналістику з портретною зйомкою. Від індійських циркових артистів до американських підлітків, що живуть на вулицях, від голлівудських знімальних майданчиків до ув'язнених у безпечній лікарні, її фотографії вражають своєю людяністю та емпатією.

Published for the first time in book form, this startling and intimate collection of late images by the great twentieth-century Japanese photographer comprises the series Private Scenes and Letters from Journeys.

One of the most important Japanese photographers of the last century, Masahisa Fukase was known for exploring themes of isolation, lonliness, and melancholy and for his transgressive and intimate approach to the medium. This volume includes two of his last and arguably most personal series. Private Scenes features photographs taken over the course of the year 1989 in different locations around the world and in which he is both subject and photographer. He then painted over the prints with colored washes to create an entirely new piece. For this same series, he later photographed scenes from daily life, this time in Tokyo, changing camera and adding the date on his photographs, but still representing himself in the images. This volume reproduces for the first time in book form all of the photographs that make up both original series. It charts a turning point in Fukase’s work — an artist grappling with his medium and with a compulsion to share his personal experiences with his audience. The photographs are accompanied by a text by Masako Toda, who offers a contextual and historical consideration of Fukase’s œuvre.

About the Author:

Masako Toda is a photo historian, author, and curator of Japanese photography. She holds a masters from The University of Tokyo. Toda is a lecturer at Musashino Art University, Tokyo College of Photography, among others. In 2006, she was awarded the incentive award by the Japan Society for Arts and History of Photography. Toda's field of expertise is the history of modernism as well as postwar Japanese photography.

An Archeology of Time

There is more to numbers than sums; they can also conceal histories, too. In this case, world-famous architectural history. For five years the renowned Neue Nationalgalerie (New National Gallery), designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, was closed to the public for renovation. Nevertheless, the photographer Michael Wesely was able to accommodate “four guests” inside the iconic building: four cameras, each one pointing in a different direction, were installed on the ceiling. Every day they took between 360 and 730 pictures with an exposure time of 90 seconds each. Edited into bewitching montages, this fascinating synopsis allows readers to envision the building’s metamorphosis as it was undergoing renovations. The long exposure time is an aesthetic coup, for ephemeral, restless, rapid movements contrast with the still, timeless quality of the architecture, presenting a sophisticated interplay of identity and change.

This book is published on the occasion of the re-opening of the Neue Nationalgalerie, Berlin, August 2021. It is a slightly altered special edition of the original numbered edition of April 2021.

About the Author:

The photographer Michael Wesely (*1963) is a celebrated master of the long exposure. His precise approach to this photographic technique, tailored to each object, brought him world renown. His unique aesthetic can be found in numerous exhibitions and collections around the globe. He lives in Berlin.

This fascinating photography collection contains carefully selected pieces from four of Ninagawa's photography collections, such as Everlasting flowers, Portraits of the time, The days were beautiful, and trans-kyoto.
