Many of the most famous Marilyn images were Milton Greene’s: the chiffon dress, the wicker chair, the red sweater; the Slip and Mink series; the White Series and the Black Series. Marilyn in the crux of an oak tree; Marilyn pulling up her stockings; the filming of Bus Stop and Showgirl. Nobody before and after photographed Marilyn as erotic, elegant, and seductive as Milton Greene. Composed by Milton’s son Joshua, this Marilyn classic is available again in its immortal beauty.

Відомий фотограф-портретист Марк Манн документує вражаючу низку танцюристів — їхні красномовні тіла в позованих спокоях та яскравих рухах — що уособлюють роки досконалості та різноманітні дисципліни цього виду мистецтва.

Ця книга, що оспівує силу та емоційні здібності танцюристів, є колекцією зображень, що вловлюють динамізм та енергію як танцю, так і фотографії. Віддаючи шану герою Манна, Ірвінгу Пенну, він встановив фон зі старого монохромного мусліну. Танцюристи різних жанрів — балету, джазу, африканської музики, степу, бродвейського театру, хіп-хопу, бальних танців — виступають та обговорюють свою пристрасть до цього виду мистецтва в цьому суворому середовищі.

Манн вловлює людяність та спонтанність провідних танцюристів Американського театру танцю Елвіна Ейлі, Американського театру балету, танцювальної компанії Марти Грем, Нью-Йоркського міського балету та багатьох інших труп. Серед об'єктів, що зображені, — такі танцювальні особистості, як Місті Коупленд, Кармен де Лаваллад, Тайлер Пек, Чіта Рівера, Джеймс Вайтсайд, Омарі Вайлз, Сінь Ін та багато інших.

Як фотограф, Манн звик наполегливо працювати, щоб щось сталося на його знімках; тут він зайняв дещо пасивнішу роль, спостерігаючи та фіксуючи виразні й талановиті об'єкти, які контролюють кожен кадр. Ця книга є свідченням емоційної та фізичної сили кожного танцюриста, як у нерухомості, так і в русі.

Про автора:

Марк Манн — відомий портретний фотограф знаменитостей, родом з Шотландії. Чіта Рівера — американська танцівниця, співачка та акторка.

A wonderful book of Namibia photography. Captures the scale, colors, and atmosphere of this remarkable country 

A vast expanse of a country, more than double the size of Germany, with a population density of just three people per square kilometers, and an incredible diversity of fauna — even in the most extreme environments.

With a booming economy and stable democracy, things are going well in Namibia. Tourism plays a huge role in the country, with some 1.5 million travellers visiting each year to explore and enjoy the country’s phenomenal landscapes, wildlife, natural history, and its immense sense of space. This breathtaking Namibia book by New York Times-acclaimed photographer Michael Poliza captures some of the country’s most spectacular scenery, from the highest star dunes in the world around Sossusvlei to the NamibRand Nature Reserve, the Namib Desert, and the granite peaks of the Spitzkoppe. Taken from both the ground and the air, more than 100 photographs present the country’s nature and wildlife, as well as its indigenous peoples and their ways of life as cattle breeders and smallholder farmers. Poliza’s photographs also reveal the astonishing life of the desert, especially after rare rain fall. Oryx antelopes, jackals and giraffes, ostriches and springboks are there, where incredible plants also sprout up and in turn attract their predators; Namibia is also home to some of the “Big Five”: lions, leopards, elephants, and rhino, all sharing what little there is to go around in this arid, extraordinary, and delicate ecosystem.

About the Author:

Life always shows Michael Poliza new paths: from actor to entrepreneur, from professional photographer to travel designer. After a career in the IT and Internet industries, Poliza started a three-year multimedia expedition on a ship around the world. In 2002, he settled in Cape Town, traveled the African plains and quickly became a world renowned wildlife and landscape photographer. The New York Times said of his work that “it could change the way you think about photography.” Captivated by the beauty of his work, friends of Poliza begin to ask if they can accompany him on his expeditions, and in 2011, he founded the company MICHAEL POLIZA PRIVATE TRAVEL, which tailors very special adventure trips to the most beautiful and untouched places.

He has reported from approximately 90 countries around the world (and counting), with bylines in the German daily papers Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and Süddeutsche Zeitung, among others.

Це розширена й оновлена ​​версія основоположної книги Nan Goldin The Other Side, яка була опублікована в 1993 році. Буде переглянутий вступ Голдін і вперше звучатимуть голоси тих, чиї історії представлені. Зараз, випущений у час, коли дискурс навколо статі та сексуальної орієнтації еволюціонує, «Інша сторона» простежує частину історії, яка інформує цю нову видимість.

Перші фотографії в книзі датуються 1970-ми роками, коли Голдін жив у Бостоні з групою драг-квінів і задокументував їх гламур і вразливість. На початку вісімдесятих Голдін описувала життя друзів-трансгендерів у Нью-Йорку, коли СНІД почав знищувати її спільноту. У дев’яності роки вона зафіксувала вибух драг як соціального явища в Нью-Йорку, Берліні, Бангкоку та на Філіппінах, фотографуючи їхні публічні персони, одночасно показуючи їх реальне життя за лаштунками. Найновіші фотографії Голдін – це інтимні портрети, пронизані ніжністю, деяких її найулюбленіших друзів.The Other Side — це її шана королевам, яких вона любила, багатьох із яких вона втратила за останні чотири десятиліття.

Navitimer. A mysterious name at first glance. It is in fact a contraction of two words, which correspond to the two major functions of a revolutionary watch: NAVIgation and TIMER.

A chronograph designed for airborne navigation. But much more than that, an exceptional destiny, shaped by extraordinary and visionary actors. From the very beginning of its existence, in 1884, Breitling specialised in time measurement, namely the design of timers and chronographs. It was in the 1930s that the foundations of a close relationship with the world of aviation and aeronautics were laid, under the aegis of Willy Breitling. These ties have remained unbroken ever since. In 1952, in collaboration with the AOPA, the largest aeronautical association of the time, Breitling launched the development of the Navitimer, which offered what no other watch manufacturer had ever proposed: a chronograph combined with a slide rule for aircraft pilots. The Navitimer was available only to AOPA members in 1954, and then marketed to the general public in 1955. For 70 years now, the Navitimer has enjoyed glory, flown into space and weathered crises, integrating numerous evolutions without ever losing its original DNA. It has appealed to several generations of professionals, celebrities and lovers of exceptional watches, undoubtedly earning its status as an icon of watchmaking history.

This second book in the Watch Stories series, dedicated to the history of emblematic timepieces, traces its heroic and unique destiny from its creation to the current models.

About the Author:

Anthony Marquié is a French national and a trained aeronautical engineer. He swiftly turned to an international career in finance and investments. He has always been a collector of both modern and vintage watches, including many icons from the Omega production. Today he spends a lot of his time looking for rare examples, as well as studying the market for prestigious watches and collector's pieces. Grégoire Rossier is a Swiss biologist specialising in bioinformatics. He became a watch enthusiast at the age of 13 when he inherited his first Omega Seamaster, but it was only much later that he started serious research on the Moonwatch. Applying his experience as a researcher, he developed a systematic database of thousands of entries referencing all his observations as well as the market trends for several versions of the Speedmaster.

From well-known portraits of Monaco’s “beautiful people” to rarely-seen landscapes, this collection of images documents two decades of Helmut Newton’s love affair with the sun-kissed world of the French Riviera.

Helmut Newton was in his sixties and already a well-established photographer when he and his wife moved to the French Riviera. At an age when many people would consider retirement, Newton instead plunged headfirst into one of the most prolific and liberating stages of his career. The city of Monaco was the perfect backdrop for his fashion photography, and it also provided him with a wealth of subjects for his famous portraits, including the stars of the Ballet de Monte-Carlo and the Princely Family. And it was in Monaco that Newton finally tried his hand at landscapes. While this volume focuses primarily on the years 1981 to 2004, it also looks at Newton’s historic links with the Côte d’Azur and the area around Bordighera, Italy. There are essays by a range of experts in photography, film, and art and three interviews, including one with Paloma Picasso. In these remarkable photographs readers will discover the French Riviera through Newton’s fascinated, slightly ironic lens: a way of life characterized by ease and elegance; a world dominated by appearance and superficiality; and a veritable living theater, in which he was both actor and privileged member of the audience.

The photographer:

Helmut Newton (1920–2004) was one of the most influential photographers of all time. He first achieved international fame in the 1970s while working principally for French Vogue, and became celebrated for his controversial scenarios, bold lighting, and striking compositions in street or interior settings, rather than studios. His many titles and awards included Commandeur de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres.
