Чи то фотографування авангардного театру, циган у степах Східної Європи, чи опір радянським гарматам і танкам, що наступали на Прагу, Йозеф Куделка послідовно створює знімки, що провокують зв'язок із ширшими питаннями людського існування.

Ця книга об'єднує панорамні фотографії з одного з його останніх проектів – ландшафтів регіону П'ємонт на півночі Італії. Як каже Джузеппе Кулічк'я у своєму вступі до цієї чудової колекції: «Сьогоднішній П'ємонт – це регіон, який одночасно чудовий і поранений. І ось вони: дива і рани… Люди здебільшого відсутні на знімках Куделки, бо головним героєм книги є сама земля».

• Містить вступ, що викладає історію та культуру П'ємонту провідним італійським журналістом Джузеппе Кулічк'я.
• Потужні композиції Куделки чудово поєднуються з панорамним форматом фотографій та макетом книги.

Фотографії Йозефа Коуделки, присвячені вторгненню до Праги 1968 року, принесли йому Золоту медаль Роберта Капи в 1969 році. Він покинув Чехословаччину в 1969 році та став членом Magnum Photos. З 1980 року живе в Парижі та Празі.

«Класика документальної фотографії… надзвичайне свідчення гострого ока та темно-романтичної уяви Коуделки» Observer

Фільм «Цигани» заснований на оригінальному макеті книги Йозефа Коуделки Cikáni (чеською «Цигани»), підготовленому Коуделкою та графічним дизайнером Міланом Копрівою у 1968 році та призначеному для публікації у Празі у 1970 році. Однак Коуделка покинув Чехословаччину у 1970 році, і книга так і не була опублікована в оригінальному вигляді.

Зараз доступна у доступному компактному виданні, книга була перероблена та переупорядкована. Вона містить 109 фотографій, зроблених між 1962 і 1971 роками на території колишньої Чехословаччини (Богемія, Моравія та Словаччина), Румунії, Угорщини, Франції та Іспанії, і є унікальним свідченням зниклого світу. Циган на цих зображеннях були сфотографовані протягом 1960-х років, здебільшого в державі, якої вже не існує, та під владою режиму, який розпався в 1989 році. Вілл Гай, автор тексту, що супроводжував першу публікацію Cikáni, пропонує абсолютно нове есе, в якому простежується міграція ромів з їхньої первісної батьківщини в північній Індії до їхнього нинішнього статусу, який продовжує оскаржуватися на міжнародному рівні.

Vlastimil Kula
ID: 278
Видавництво: Taschen
Vlastimil Kula’s photographs are mysterious and defiantly sexy. Frustrated by what he calls the “boredom of pornography” and the mechanical depiction of sex, Kula aims to distance himself from traditional genres by exploring uncharted territory and pushing the limits of what people consider “art.” He, his wife, and various men and women are the subjects of his shadowy monochromes in which sex, taboo, love, passion, and rebellion are the key themes. That he spent most of his life in opposition to his country’s Communist government fueled his desire to bring out into the open what people refuse to recognize in themselves. His photographs attest to this noble struggle. The photographer: Born in Czechoslovakia in 1950, Vlastimil Kula traveled to England, Canada, and the USA before being required to return to his native country following the Soviet invasion. He studied art photography at the Prague Academy of Arts and now lives and works in Cheb, the town where he grew up.
David La Chapelle
ID: 967
Видавництво: Taschen
LaChapelle Heaven to Hell is the long-awaited third volume in an exhilarating trilogy that began with LaChapelle Land (1996) and continued with the infamous Hotel LaChapelle (1999). Packed with astonishing, color-saturated, and provocative images, those titles both became instant collector’s items and have since gone through multiple printings. Featuring almost twice as many images as its predecessors, LaChapelle Heaven to Hell is an explosive compilation of new work by the visionary photographer. Since the publication of Hotel LaChapelle, the strength of LaChapelle’s work lies in its ability to focus the lens of celebrity and fashion toward more pressing issues of societal concern.
 
LaChapelle’s images — of the most famous faces on the planet, and marginalized figures like transsexual Amanda Lepore or the cast of his critically acclaimed social documentary Rize — call into question our relationship with gender, glamour, and status. Using his trademark baroque excess, LaChapelle inverts the consumption he appears to celebrate, pointing instead to apocalyptic consequences for humanity itself. While referencing and acknowledging diverse sources such as the Renaissance, art history, cinema, The Bible, pornography, and the new globalized pop culture, LaChapelle has fashioned a deeply personal and epoch-defining visual language that holds up a mirror to our times.

Since the publication of Hotel LaChapelle, the strength of LaChapelle's work lies in its ability to focus the lens of celebrity and fashion toward more pressing issues of societal concern.

LaChapelle's images - of the most famous faces on the planet, and marginalized figures like transsexual Amanda Lepore or the cast of his critically acclaimed social documentary Rize - call into question our relationship with gender, glamour, and status. Using his trademark baroque excess, LaChapelle inverts the consumption he appears to celebrate, pointing instead to apocalyptic consequences for humanity itself. While referencing and acknowledging diverse sources such as the Renaissance, art history, cinema, The Bible, pornography, and the new globalized pop culture, LaChapelle has fashioned a deeply personal and epoch-defining visual language that holds up a mirror to our times.

This popular hardcover edition of LaChapelle Heaven to Hell is a must-have for anyone interested in contemporary photography. It is also keenly priced, especially for those who have coveted TASCHEN's limited edition, LaChapelle, Artists & Prostitutes.

"The book has the effect of a time capsule, bringing back an era that continues to resonate for us in shades of Technicolor and black and white." - Los Angeles Times Book Review, Los Angeles

At a time when surfing is more popular than ever, it`s fitting to look back at the years that brought the sport into the mainstream. Developed by Hawaiian islanders over five centuries ago, surfing began to peak on the mainland in the 1950s, taking America - and the world - by storm. Surfing became not just a sport, but a way of life, and the culture that surrounded it was admired and exported across the globe. One of the key image-makers from that period is LeRoy Grannis, a surfer since 1931, who began photographing the scene in California and Hawaii in the longboard Gidget era of the early 1960s.

This collection, drawn from Grannis`s personal archives, showcases an impressive selection of surf photographs - from the bliss of catching the perfect wave at San Onofre to dramatic wipeouts at Oahu`s famed North Shore. An innovator in the field, Grannis suction-cupped a waterproof box to his board, enabling him to change film in the water and stay closer to the action than other photographers of the time. Equally notable is his work covering an emerging surf lifestyle, from "surfer stomps" and hoards of fans at surf contests to board-laden woody station wagons along the Pacific Coast Highway. It is in these iconic images that a sport still in its adolescence embodied the free-spirited nature of an era - a time before shortboards and celebrity endorsements, when surfing was at its bronzed best.

Reforming Lens. Lewis W. Hine’s images of child labor and American working life

More than 300 photographs by Lewis W. Hine, whose trailblazing documentary images of early 20th-century working conditions helped to transform United States labor laws. This book covers all eras of Hine’s work, including his pictures of child laborers, of new immigrants on Ellis Island, and of the construction of the Empire State Building.

Photographer, teacher, and sociologist Lewis W. Hine (1874–1940) shaped our consciousness of American working life in the early 20th century like no other. Combining his training as an educator with his humanist concerns, Hine was one of the earliest photographers to use the camera as a documentary tool, capturing in particular labor conditions, housing, and immigrants arriving on Ellis Island. His images, including those of children in cotton mills, factories, coal mines, and fields, became icons of photographic history that helped to transform labor laws in the United States.

This book brings together a representative collection of Lewis W. Hine’s photography from all periods of his work. It spans his earliest forays into social-documentary work through to his more artistic and interpretative late photographs, including his phenomenal images of the construction of the Empire State Building and his symbiotic staging of human and machine as a comment on increasing industrialization. Alongside the near 350 photographs, the book includes an essay by the editor, introducing Hine’s life and pioneering work.

The photographer:

American photographer and sociologist Lewis W. Hine (1874–1940) was trained to be an educator in Chicago and New York before setting up his photography studio in 1912. One of the first to use the camera as a tool for social reform, Hine worked as photographer for the National Child Labor Committee, the Red Cross, and the National Research Project of the Works Progress Administration. His photographs were instrumental in changing child labor laws in the United States.

The author:

Peter Walther has edited various publications on literary, photographic, and contemporary historical themes, including books on Goethe, Fontane, Thomas Mann, Hans Fallada, and writers in the First World War, as well as several illustrated books with historical color photographs. He has also curated several exhibitions. He is particularly interested in early color photography techniques.

Frans Lanting
ID: 841
Видавництво: Taschen

In the year 2000, world-renowned wildlife photographer Frans Lanting set out on a personal journey to photograph the evolution of life on earth. He made pilgrimages to true time capsules like a remote lagoon in Western Australia, spent time in research collections photographing forms of microscopic life, and even found ways to create visual parallels between the growth of organs in the human body and the patterns seen on the surface of the earth. The resulting volume is a glorious picture book of planet earth depicting the amazing biodiversity that surrounds us all. Lanting’s true gift lies beyond his technical mastery: it is his eye for geometry in the beautiful chaos of nature that allows him to show us the world as it has never been seen before. From crabs to jellyfish, diatoms to vast geological formations, jungles to flowers, monkeys to human embryos, LIFE is a testament to the magical beauty of life in all its forms and is Lanting’s most remarkable achievement to date.

The photographer:

Dutch-born Frans Lanting has been hailed as one of the great nature photographers of our time. For the past two decades he has documented wildlife and our relationship with nature in environments from the Amazon to Antarctica. Exhibits of his photographs have been shown at major museums in Paris, Milan, Tokyo, New York, Madrid, and Amsterdam. Lanting’s previous TASCHEN titles include Eye to Eye, Jungles, and Penguin.

Lillian Bassman
ID: 7787
Видавництво: Abrams

Through the 1950s and the early 1960s, fashion photographer Lillian Bassman worked with fashion magazines and Madison Avenue Advertising agencies to create a potent vision of women's lingerie: brassieres and bodices; corsets and girdles; camisoles and chemises; nightgowns and pajamas. Using the era's supermodels, she perfectly visualised a feminine ideal and captured women's imaginations. Fifty years later these images have lost none of their allure and the enormous cultural impact of the TV show Mad Men has given them new currency.

About the Author

Lillian Bassman, is a prominent and respected figure in the world of fashion photographers. Her signature style, once described by legendary photographer Richard Avedon as making "visible that heartbreaking invisible place between the appearance and the disappearance of things" offers a sensuous and intimate vision of modern women.
