Tomasz Gudzowaty became established as a wildlife documentary photographer in 1999, when he won the first of his World Press Photo awards in the nature category with a remarkable image of two cheetah cubs just about to take down their first prey. He has since traveled extensively through- out sub-Saharan Africa, amassing thousands of images of elephants, lions, cheetahs, wildebeest, zebras and other species. In 2008 Gudzowaty documented a remote emperor penguin colony in the Weddell Sea, a project he continued through his work on South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.

Gudzowaty’s wildlife photography is characterized by a technical and aesthetic sophistication that is particularly visible in his depictions of large-scale natural spectacles, such as the annual wildebeest migration in Tanzania or the breeding season on the penguin rookeries. This book captures Gudzowaty’s passion and deep knowledge of his subject: keenly observing both general patterns and minute details, he brings the viewer closer to nature’s inner workings and beauty.

Це перша публікація про американського художника Кертіса Моффата, відомого своїми динамічними абстрактними фотографіями, інноваційними кольоровими натюрмортами та одними з найгламурніших світських портретів початку ХХ століття. Моффат також був ключовою фігурою в модерністському дизайні інтер'єрів та меблів. Живучи в Лондоні протягом 1920-х та початку 30-х років в епоху «Яскравої молоді», Моффат створював стильні фотопортрети провідних діячів вищого суспільства, сцени, театру та мистецтва, включаючи Сесіла Бітона, Сітвеллс, Ненсі Кунард, леді Діану Купер, Таллулу Бенкхед та Дафну Дю Мор'є.

У 2003 та 2007 роках дочка Моффата, Пенелопа Смейл, щедро передала його великий архів Музею Вікторії та Альберта. Ця книга взята з цього архіву, а також містить цифрові реконструкції кольорових зображень з оригінальних чорно-білих негативів, отриманих за допомогою трикарбронної обробки. Вона розкриває новаторську, але маловідому фотографію Моффата у всій її глибині та красі.

Дайдо Моріяма, якого вважають найвпливовішим і плідним фотографом Японії, уже понад півстоліття кидає виклик традиційним формам мистецтва.

Ця вичерпна та захоплююча ретроспектива, опублікована у співпраці з Фондом Дайдо Моріями та заснована на абсолютно нових дослідженнях, розглядає кожен етап великої кар’єри Моріями, включаючи його надзвичайні зображення, а також концептуальний внесок у фотографію.

Один з покоління новаторських художників післявоєнної Японії, Моріяма постійно створював власну візуальну граматику. У цій книзі представлено понад 190 зображень, упорядкованих у хронологічному порядку, які розкривають його кар’єру, що постійно розвивається: його рання редакторська робота середини 1960-х років, зосереджена на американській окупації та експериментальному театрі; його радикальні експерименти кінця 1960-х і 1970-х років; саморефлексивні фотографії 1980-1990-х років; і його постійне дослідження міст, серед інших відповідних моментів. Він також містить понад 400 розворотів із рідкісних публікацій Моріями, які відображають джерела його візуальної продукції. Завершують том тексти редактора та провідних японістів, особисте есе митця та повна хронологія його життя та творчості. Цей вражаючий том, який супроводжує велику виставку, присвячену творчості Моріями, переосмислює спадщину Моріями та, безперечно, стане остаточною публікацією його творчості.

Dancers After Dark – це дивовижне свято людського тіла та людського духу, оскільки танцівниці, сфотографовані оголеними та вночі, вражають пози безстрашної краси.

Без дозволу чи плану Джордан Матер вивів сотні найзахопливіших танцюристів у світі із зони комфорту — не кажучи вже про їхній одяг — щоб досліджувати найпереконливіші сфери краси та людської форми. Після всього ризику та сміливості результат надзвичайний: 300 танцюристів, 400 локацій, понад 150 приголомшливих фотографій. І ні одягу, ні арештів, ні жалю.

Кожне зображення підкреслює дивовижні здібності цих митців — і представляє основне повідомлення читачеві: скажи «так», а не «ні», і прийми ризики та можливості, які дає життя.

Про автора:

Джордан Меттер, є автором бестселера New York Times Dancers Among Us. Він і його роботи були представлені на телебаченні, у пресі, в Інтернеті та на виставках по всьому світу, зокрема Buzzfeed, ABC World News Tonight, Today, BBC, The New York Times, The Huffington Post, №1 на Reddit, Daily Mail U.K., O, The Oprah Magazine, NPR та Музей сучасного мистецтва Савіна в Сеулі, Корея. Матер живе з дружиною і двома дітьми в Нью-Йорку.

Таємниця тіла в русі. Несподіванка бачити те, що здається неможливим. І чистий, радісний оптимізм усього цього. Dancers Among Us представляє одну за одною захоплюючі фотографії танцюристів, які стрибають, крутяться, піднімають, б’ють ногами — але в розпалі повсякденного життя: на пляжі, на будівельному майданчику, в бібліотеці, ресторані, парку. З кожним зображенням читач бадьориться, бажаючи побачити наступний шматок магії.

Фотограф Джордан Матер розпочав свій проект Dancers Among Us, попросивши члена танцювальної компанії Пола Тейлора станцювати для нього в місці, де танці несподівані. Так, одягнена в міський костюм і краватку, танцівниця летіла по платформі метро Таймс-сквер. І в цьому образі Матер знайшов те, що шукав: спосіб висловити відчуття повного життя в даний момент, несвідомого, теперішнього.

Організований навколо тем роботи, ігор, кохання, дослідження, мрій тощо, Dancers Among Us святкує життя свіжим, несподіваним, оригінальним, універсальним способом. Тут немає ні фотошопу, ні батутів, ні трюків, ні фокусів. Просто фотограф, його бачення та випадковість того, що відбувається, коли клацає затвор.

Експериментуючи з усіма формами художньої творчості, від живопису до фотографії, від малюнка до створення звуку, роботи Девіда Лінча видаються найбільш різноманітними нашого часу. У 2007 році Фонд Cartier pour l’art contemporain представив виставку-захід The Air Is on Fire, яка представила фотографічні та живописні роботи Лінча. Майже п’ятнадцять років потому Фонд Картьє опублікує Digital Nudes, виняткову колекцію фотографій художника, присвячених оголеним жінкам, як продовження Nudes, опублікованої в 2017 році.

Друга частина саги про Лінчі, присвячена фотографічному дослідженню жіночого тіла, Digital Nudes об’єднує корпус раніше непублікованих цифрових зображень, які відповідають естетиці аналогових фотографій оголених, експериментуючи з можливостями, які пропонують цифрові технології.

Калейдоскопічні візії ніг, рук чи невизначених вигинів, світлотіньові портрети, фотографії покритих лаком нігтів і лакованих ротів... Так багато прикладів обробки Девідом Лінчем однієї з найбільших мистецьких тем – жіночого оголеного тіла, яке тут стає одою жіночності, запрошенням до споглядання та творчої свободи.

In May 1971, Artforum, bastion of late modernism, featured the work of a photographer for the very first time. On its cover and in a six-page spread, it published selections from Diane Arbus's portfolio, A box of ten photographs. In the words of the magazine’s editor and photography sceptic, Philip Leider, “The portfolio changed everything . . . one could no longer deny [photography’s] status as art.” At the time of Arbus’s death, two months later, only four of the intended edition of fifty had been sold. Two had been purchased from Arbus by Richard Avedon (the first for himself, the second as a gift for his friend Mike Nichols); another was purchased by Jasper Johns; and a fourth by Bea Feitler, art director at Harper’s Bazaar. Arbus signed the prints in all four sets; each print was accompanied by an interleaving vellum slip-sheet inscribed with an extended caption. For Feitler, Arbus added an eleventh photograph, A woman with her baby monkey, N.J., 1971.

Acquired by the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, D.C., in 1986 — and the only one of the four completed and sold by Arbus that is publicly held — that portfolio is the subject of an exhibition on view at the museum from April through September 2018. This exceptional book replicates the nature of Diane Arbus’s original and now legendary object. Smithsonian curator John P. Jacob, who has unearthed a trove of new information in preparing the book and exhibition, weaves a fascinating tale of the creation, production, and continuing repercussions of this seminal work.

About the Authors:

Diane Arbus (born and died in New York, 1923–1971) is one of the towering figures of twentieth-century art. In the forty-five years since her death, her singular achievements have been celebrated by a host of major museum retrospectives throughout the world and by six posthumous publications, all of which have remained continuously in print since their publication, including Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph (1972), and Diane Arbus: Revelations (Random House, 2003).

John P. Jacob is the Smithsonian American Art Museum’s McEvoy Family Curator for Photography. Previously, Jacob was vice president and director of the Inge Morath Foundation. Recent publications include Harlem Heroes: Photographs by Carl Van Vechten (2016), among others. Jacob’s research on spirit photography and the tintype, for which he received the 2012 Shpilman Award for Excellence in Photography from the Israel Museum, will be published by the museum as Ghost Stories: Found Photography and the Certification of Presence.

When Diane Arbus died in 1971 at the age of 48, she was already a significant influence — even a legend — among serious photographers, although only a small number of her pictures were widely known.

The publication of Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph in 1972, and the posthumous retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art, offered the public its first encounter with Arbus’s achievements. The response was unprecedented.

The monograph of eighty photographs was edited and designed by the painter Marvin Israel, Diane Arbus’s friend and colleague, and by her daughter Doon Arbus. Their goal was to remain faithful to the standards by which Arbus judged her own work, and to how she hoped it would be seen. Universally acknowledged as a timeless masterpiece, and translated into five languages, Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph remains the foundation of her international reputation.

Nearly fifty years has not diminished the impact of these pictures; they penetrate the psyche with the force of a personal encounter, and transform the way we see the world.

This is the first edition in which the image separations were created digitally; the files have been specially prepared by Robert J. Hennessey using prints by Neil Selkirk.

About the Author:

Diane Arbus (1923–1971) revolutionized the terms of the art she practiced. Five volumes of her work have been published posthumously and have remained continuously in print: Diane Arbus: An Aperture Monograph (1972), Diane Arbus: Magazine Work (1984), Untitled: Diane Arbus (1995), Diane Arbus: A Chronology (2011), and Diane Arbus Revelations (Random House, 2003).

Diane Arbus: Magazine Work

Known for her evocative portraits, Diane Arbus is a pivotal figure in American postwar photography. Undeniably striking, Arbus’s black-and-white photographs capture a unique gaze. Criticized as well as lauded for her photographs of people deemed “outsiders,” Arbus continues to attract a diversity of opinions surrounding her subjects and practice. Critics and writers have described her work as “sinister” and “appalling” as well as “revelatory,” “sincere,” and “compassionate.” In the absence of Arbus’s own voice, art criticism and cultural shifts have shaped the language attributed to her work.

Organized in eleven sections that focus on major exhibitions and significant events in Arbus’s life, as well as on her practice and her subjects, the seventy facsimiles of articles and essays –– an archive by all accounts –– trace the discourse on Diane Arbus, contextualizing her hugely successful oeuvre. Also with an annotated bibliography of more than six hundred entries and a comprehensive exhibition history, Documents serves as an important resource for photographers, researchers, art historians, and art critics, in addition to students of art criticism and the interested reader alike.

After spending most of the last twenty years photographing people in war-torn places around the world, photographer Bobby Sager trains his gaze upon a UNESCO world heritage site in the Arabian desert to deliver a visual tour de force.

Sager traveled to Diriyah, an ancient mud city abandoned by its inhabitants several decades ago. The fragile site has been closed to visitors for over a decade. But during the final stages of a major ten-year restoration, Sager was given unlimited access to capture the soul of this magical place before it was opened to the public. 

Captivated by the erosion in Diriyah’s mud-brick walls, Sager is drawn to the “faces” he sees within the mud patterns of the town’s architecture. Sager asks us to think of these faces as our hosts and us as their guests as we explore the streets, palaces, mosques, and schools of this three-hundred-year-old city.

Desert landscapes and architectural compositions accompany details of the walls and the faces in this lushly produced, oversize volume.

Bobby Sager is an American photographer whose photography has given rise to several publications and exhibitions. Books include: The Power of the Invisible Sun, (Chronicle 2009), Beyond the Robe (Powerhouse Books, 2013), and Invisible Sun (Rizzoli 2019).

Utterly individual, yet impossible to classify, Elliott Erwitt is one of the most remarkable photographers in America today. Sudden coincidences and chance encounters with objects and situations allow him to capture glimpses of the ridiculous or the comical side of everyday events, and his visual jokes become striking and pithy observations about life. Compassionate, humorous, sinister, playful, bitter, bawdy, lyrical – this collection confirms Erwitt’s limitless ability to capture a range of moods and nuances of expression.

PHOTOFILE brings together the best work of the world’s greatest photographers, in an attractive format and at an easily affordable price. Handsome and collectable, the books are produced to the highest standards. Each volume contains some sixty full-page reproductions printed in superb duotone, together with a critical introduction and a full bibliography. The series has been awarded the first annual prize for distinguished photographic books by the International Center of Photography, New York.

This collection of striking colour images from the American West is both a moving national portrait as well as a celebration of analog colour photography from an undisputed genius of the form.

The photographer behind Life magazine’s first-ever all-colour photographic essay, Ernst Haas made — and captured — history as an early adopter of Kodachrome film. The Austrian-born artist had already established himself as a black-and-white photographer when he moved to America in 1951. But as a member of the renowned Magnum agency, he transformed the genre with his colour-saturated images, the perfect medium for capturing America’s geographic and cultural landscapes. From desert storms, Route 66 gas stations, and Las Vegas neon to rolling prairie, dilapidated farms, small-town parades, and city sidewalks, Haas’ perfectly composed images, contain a distinct pictorial language, suffused with poetry, pattern, and light. At the same time, his pictures communicate a journalist’s point of view, whether the subject is rural poverty, suburban comfort, or the myth of the American West. The remarkable book offers a vision of America that feels both poignantly distant and reassuringly familiar.

About the Author:

Paul Lowe is a senior lecturer in photography and an award-winning photographer. He teaches at the London College of Communication. His photographs have appeared in Time, Newsweek, Life, the Sunday Times Magazine, the Observer, and the Independent, among others.
