Celebrating twenty years of an agenda-setting powerhouse of contemporary style, design, and popular culture. Celebrated for discovering and promoting new artists, musicians, designers, and filmmakers, Dazed & Confused magazine has been a barometer of popular style and culture since its founding in London in 1991 by Jefferson Hack and the photographer Rankin.

Quickly renowned for its controversial attitude, Dazed represented a new wave in the British style press, bringing together figures from different creative fields and eras to produce extraordinary interviews and develop artwork for the magazine. From David Bowie to Bjork, Harmony Korine to David Lynch, Kate Moss to Stockhausen, and Rankin to Thom Yorke, the roster of the magazine’s subjects and contributing artists alone is a record of the evolution of contemporary pop culture.

Edited by its founders, this daringly illustrated book immortalizes the magazine’s most enduring features, from legendary photoshoots and iconic covers to controversial interviews, and supplements them with outtakes, ephemera from the editors’ offices, original artwork, and contributions from the photographers, designers, and artists behind it all.

Die Avantgarde-Architektur der 20er Jahre wird heute fast ausschließlich mit dem Bauhaus oder Le Corbusier assoziiert. »Neues Bauen«, für konservative Zeitgenossen seinerzeit ein Schimpfwort, in seiner deutschen Sprachfassung jedoch bald international ein Begriff, beschränkte sich aber keineswegs nur auf die westlichen Metropolen. Nach der Oktoberrevolution von 1917 begann sich das junge sowjetische Rußland zu formieren und auch nach außen als radikal neu darzustellen. Neu waren schließlich auch die Bauaufgaben: Gewerkschaftshäuser und Arbeiterclubs, Kraftwerke und Fabriken, kollektive Wohnanlagen und Sanatorien für die Werktätigen, staatliche Großkaufhäuser, Partei- und Verwaltungsbauten, ein Mausoleum für Lenin… Nicht nur in Moskau und St. Petersburg, auch im fernen Baku (Aserbaidschan), in Sochi am Schwarzen Meer oder im ukrainischen Charkow hielt die Moderne Einzug mit Bauten aus Glas, Stahl und Beton. Utopie, Bauhaus-Ästhetik und russischer Konstruktivismus fanden sich hier in einem auch quantitativ einzigartigen Experiment, das damals weltweit Aufsehen erregte: Avantgarde pur. Wie in Deutschland endete dieses innovative Abenteuer Anfang der 30er Jahre, als die politische und akademische Reaktion die Führung in der Partei übernahm. Die Auflösung der UdSSR 1991 gab den letzten Zeugen dieses so kurzlebigen Aufbruchs in die Moderne schließlich den Rest. Bis auf wenige prominente Ausnahmen erst verunstaltet, dann vergessen und verwahrlost, wurde ein Viertel der noch existierenden Bauten in den letzten Jahren Opfer der Spekulation. Das Buch dokumentiert die Relikte dieser »verlorenen Avantgarde« in ebenso beeindruckenden wie ernüchternden Photographien, die der renommierte britische Architekturphotograph Richard Pare auf mehreren Reisen durch die ehemaligen Sowjetrepubliken in den 90er Jahren aufgenommen hat.

The importance of Manuel Alvarez Bravo, Henri Cartier-Bresson and Walker Evans appears so clear today, so indisputable, that one hesitates to draw attention to it for fear of stating the obvious. Yet in 1935, when the New Yorker Julien Levy, one of the most influential collectors of the 20th century, conceived the exhibition Documentary and Anti-Graphic Photographs by Cartier-Bresson, Walker Evans & Alvarez Bravo, no one could imagine the eminent place the trio would occupy in the avant-garde of their time, nor the immense influence the photographers would have on future generations.

Gathered together here again for the first time since 1935, these period prints represent an exceptional set of essential and sometimes unknown images. This selection of early works of three masters of photography places us face to face with the history of the medium in the making.

The show in New York in 1935 was one of the first exhibitions Henri Cartier-Bresson ever had. This book is the last project he considered before leaving us - the wheel has come full circle.
