Summary:
For more than fifty years, Walter Bernard and Milton Glaser have revolutionized the look of magazine journalism. In ''Mag Men,'' Bernard and Glaser recount their storied careers, offering insiders’ perspective on some of the most iconic design work of the twentieth century. The authors look back on and analyze some of their most important and compelling projects, from the creation of New York magazine to redesigns of such publications as Time, Fortune, Paris Match, and The Nation, explaining how their designs complemented a story and shaped the visual identity of a magazine. At a time when uncertainty continues to cloud the future of print journalism, ''Mag Men'' offers not only a personal history from two of its most innovative figures, but also a reminder and celebration of the visual impact and sense of style that only magazines can offer.

Summary:
Cet ouvrage accompagne la treizième exposition temporaire du Louvre Abu Dhabi, en collaboration avec le Louvre Paris. De la fabrication à la diffusion en passant par les progrès techniques, il illustre les nombreuses caractéristiques de ce matériau si familier qui s'efface parfois de nos usages au profit du numérique aujourd'hui ancré dans tous les aspects de nos vies quotidiennes. En explorant les différentes plantes qui en sont à l'origine, tout comme les nombreuses essences dont émane sa fabrication, la diversité des œuvres d'art présentées invite à découvrir les multiples utilisations du papier comme vecteur de créativité, d'idées et d'échanges à travers les siècles et les cultures. Incluant des œuvres des collections françaises, en particulier des œuvres du musée du Louvre, du musée Guimet, de la Bibliothèque nationale de France, du Centre Georges-Pompidou, ce catalogue est aussi l'occasion de mettre en lumière des artistes contemporains locaux ainsi que des créations contemporaines internationales.

The photobook contextualizes arrangements of photographs and brings them into a sensually tangible form. The book format, the materiality of the paper, and the type of binding have just as much of an effect on the viewer as the selection of images, their positioning in the layout, typography, and the texts.

Summary:
The photobook contextualizes arrangements of photographs and brings them into a sensually tangible form. The book format, the materiality of the paper, and the type of binding have just as much of an effect on the viewer as the selection of images, their positioning in the layout, typography, and the texts. Bettina Lockemann provides an approach to the medium from a research perspective: considering the photobook as an independent subject of art theories, her phenomenological discussion complements methodological lines of thought. An important contribution to the photobook as an independent field of research, Lockemann elaborates precise terms for analyzing this medium. Through a practice-based examination of contemporary photobooks, this guide emphasizes the status of the photobook as an artwork in its own right.

Summary:
What is the book in a digital age? Is it a physical object containing pages encased in covers? Is it a portable device that gives us access to entire libraries? The codex, the book as bound paper sheets, emerged around 150 CE. It was preceded by clay tablets and papyrus scrolls. Are those books? In this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, Amaranth Borsuk considers the history of the book, the future of the book, and the idea of the book. Tracing the interrelationship of form and content in the book's development, she bridges book history, book arts, and electronic literature to expand our definition of an object we thought we knew intimately.
