Здесь собрано полтысячи фотографий самых разных собак: эрдельтерьеры, хайленд-терьеры, пудели, таксы...

Альбомчик делится на горизонтальные и вертикальные снимки - удобная и приятная мелочь - с указанием места и года.

Сэр Пэлем Грэнвил Вудхауз, который был большим поклонником Эллиота Эрвитта, пишет в небольшом вступительном слове к изданию: "Как же великолепны эти фотографии! Так и хочется на них смотреть. В его галерее нет ни одного «натурщика», который бы не растопил вам сердце".

"Meine Schüchternheit hat dazu beigetragen, dass ich Photograph wurde. In der High School stellte ich fest, dass die Kamera einen in Situationen bringt, wo man eigentlich nicht hingehört. Damals waren es die Abschlussbälle; heute sind es das Weiße Haus und die Hinterzimmer des Kreml ..." Elliott Erwitt, seit den 50er Jahren Magnum-Mitglied und zeitweise Präsident und Vizepräsident der legendären Agentur, wurde 1928 als Kind russischer Einwanderer in Paris geboren, wuchs in Mailand auf und emigrierte 1939 mit seinen Eltern in die USA. Wie alle Magnum-Photographen seiner Generation ist er sein Leben lang in der Welt zu Hause gewesen - und sein Leben lang "schüchtern" geblieben: ein Photograph, der den Ereignissen nicht nachjagt, sondern die Ereignisse auf sich zukommen lässt, abwartend, beobachtend, bereit für die großen und die kleinen Momente im Leben, die privaten und die offiziellen, die traurigen und komischen. Vor allem seine hintersinnigen, liebenswert ironischen Schnappschüsse haben ihn berühmt und weltweit populär gemacht. Unser 1997 erstmals erschienener Band, den er selbst zusammenstellte und den wir jetzt in 2. Auflage vorlegen, enthält die Ikonen seines reichen Lebenswerks - die offiziellen Arbeiten für Magnum und viele seiner personal exposures, jener "persönlichen" Bilder, die seinen Ruhm begründeten.

Magnum photographer Elliott Erwitt is known for his candid black-and-white shots of ironic and absurd situations within everyday settings. First published in 1997 and designed by the artist himself, this reprint presents his official Magnum pictures and many “personal exposures”.

This stunning assembly of work was personally selected by Erwitt himself. Most of these images have never been published before. The generous trim size and large number of double-page spreads allow you to admire the master's technique and artistry up close. Every image is photography at its most ebullient and life-enhancing and each reflects the scope of Erwitt's observant and eclectic eye. Here is a fitting tribute to this Magnum photographer who has shot such Hollywood legends as Marlene Dietrich and Marilyn Monroe, yet whose delight in everyday irony has captured many witty moments, including his famous portraits of people and their dogs.

Born in Paris in 1928, Elliott Erwitt arrived in the U.S. in the late 1930s. Establishing himself in the 40s and 50s as a leading magazine photographer, he joined the prestigious Magnum Agency in 1953. In addition to his work in magazines, he achieved great success as an advertising photographer. He currently lives in New York City.

About the Photographer:

Born of Russian parents in Paris in 1928, the renowned photographer Elliot Erwitt arrived in the U.S. in the late 1930's and studied Photography in Los Angeles. He won recognition for his work in the 1940's and 1950's with the publication of photographs in Life Magazine and Collier's and in 1953, joined the prestigious Magnum photographic agency. The range of his subjects reflected his enormous talents - from the everyday reality of the post-war years to the glamour of Hollywood stars such as Humphrey Bogart and Marilyn Monroe to portraits of political leaders such as Nikita Kruschev. Erwitt later became a highly successful advertising photographer. In the 70's Erwitt refined his sense of irony, and in addition to comedy and film work, shot his landmark series of photographs of people and their dogs, memorably documenting the unique world shared by canine and human. Eliott Erwitt currently lives in New York City.

One of the leading photographers of his generation, Elliott Erwitt (b.1928) has been taking pictures since the late 1940s. A member of the prestigious Magnum agency since 1954, he has photographed all over the world and his images have been the subject of many books and exhibitions.

Containing over 500 pictures, over half of which have never been published before, Elliott Erwitt Snaps is a unique and comprehensive survey of his work. From famous images such as Nikita Khrushchev and Richard Nixon arguing in Moscow in 1959 and Marilyn Monroe with the cast of the movie The Misfits, to his many more personal images of places, things, people and animals, Erwitt's unmistakable, often witty, style gives us a snapshot of the famous and the ordinary, the strange and the mundane over a period of more than half a century, through the lens of one of the period's finest image-makers.

The book is arranged in nine chapters, each with a one-word title: Look, Move, Play, Read, Rest, Touch, Tell, Point, Stand. For Erwitt, whose photography is a study and celebration of life, these are the basic actions of life - the things people do. The photographs are not intended to illustrate the words, but the words act as a means of grouping and organizing, making broad connections and also playing with pun and ambiguity, in keeping with the visual games Erwitt plays.

“Fetish Girls came out in 1994 and I immediately moved with my family from New York City to San Francisco. I wanted a different light to shoot by. I went from a studio to shooting in a classic Victorian mansion. I’m still a fetishist. I live with my muse, Gwen, and my children. I made about a dozen more videos and two books of photo sexual narratives involving Gwen entitled "The Transformations of Gwen" Volumes 1 and 2 (NBM Publishing). I am more interested in capturing intimate sexual ‘play’ than before. The players have to be in heels, hose must be within frame, rubber nearby, with a hint of leather. It is the game of pleasure that I seek on film. Don’t come naked to me. Come with attitude and kneel or stand above me. My audience is particular, born as it were, from Fetish Girls.” —Eric Kroll

Electrical lines that turn into the strings of a massive guitar in the sky. A man dragging a bed sheet, which turns into a road, across an empty field. A charming cottage on an island that is actually the back of a giant fish. Digital photography artist Erik Johansson has achieved international fame by taking and then combining photos into surreal, M.C. Escher like worlds. This is his first book, and it captures the improbable and impossible in fifty distinctive images.

Digital artist Erik Johansson starts with a simple hand-drawn sketch, but what you see in the end is anything but simple: dazzlingly realistic scenes made of hundreds of photographs all meticulously staged and propped and then stitched together in software offer a glimpse into wholly invented, incredibly detailed worlds. While shooting takes only a few days, Johansson s planning and retouching process each take months, resulting in out-of-this-world images that have won him fans worldwide.

Erik Johansson has created a portfolio of stunning images combining photography, raw materials, and digital editing.

Erwin Blumenfeld (1897–1969) was born into a Jewish family in Berlin. In 1941, he left Europe for the United States, where five years later he became a citizen. During the forties and fifties, he was one of the most sought-after fashion photographers in the world. However, most people are not familiar with the artist’s early work: the often bitingly humorous Dada montages he produced between 1916 and 1933.

This book by Helen Adkins, a renowned expert on the Berlin Dada movement, is the first to provide an extensive study of these early works. Blumenfeld did not intend for them to be shown publicly - they were personal gifts to his friends and acquaintances or enclosed in love letters to his fiancée. The approximately one hundred works - including many that have not previously been published and which the author discovered in the artist’s family archives and in other public and private collections - will be examined within the context of Blumenfeld’s life, photographs, drawings, and literary works.

Dutch photographer Erwin Olaf's highly stylized mode of image-making offers a blend of mid-century modern and noir aesthetics, seen through a contemporary, fashion-inflected lens. In this enticing volume — the first time these three bodies of work have been presented as a whole — Olaf seduces the viewer via a mannered, restrained palette replete with faded avocado greens, golden-hued oranges, and subtle lilacs.

Each richly colored and sleekly composed image offers a sly reinterpretation of Norman Rockwell-like iconography and characters, manifesting a nostalgia that both burlesques and wryly celebrates America of the 1950s and '60s. As a whole, the material investigates what critic Jonathan Turner defines as "Olaf's recent fascination with the visual representation of such emotions as loss, loneliness, and quiet despair.... [He] plays games with the idea of cold reality versus cruel artifice, capturing that precise moment when innocence, hope, and joy are lost."

This project was made possible, in part, by generous support from the Mondriaan Foundation, Amsterdam; Hasted Hunt Gallery, New York; and the Consulate General of the Netherlands in New York.
