Summary:
Joachim Brohm rose to prominence in the early 1980s, one of the first photographers in Europe to take pictures exclusively in colour, connecting the everyday cultural landscape with the new possibilities of colour photography. This collection titled Typology 1979 is one of his very earliest series, depicting 35 allotment sheds from the Ruhr valley region of Germany, painterly images that are an everyday inventory – of garden structures, of human activity. Influenced by the great American photographers such as William Eggleston and Robert Adams, he also looked to his German contemporaries, Bernd and Hilla Becher, whose ‘typologies’ are heralded in the collection’s title.

Summary:
Seeds is about Darwin’s natural selection and how it has been overtaken by high-tech plant breeding which in essence accelerates evolution. The book focuses on new food crops that are resistant to pests and diseases, and are bred to contribute significantly to our future food supply. This evokes quintessential questions. Who is actually in charge on this planet? Nature? Human beings? A god? Should humans stop interfering with evolution and go back to the authenticity of small-scale farms and city farming? Or rather, is it humanity’s duty to steer evolution so that we can create enough food to feed the booming world population?

Summary:
D’abord grand reporter, Raymond Depardon s’est affirmé, au cours de ces décennies, par ses livres, ses expositions et ses films, comme un artiste majeur. Depuis 1961 et jusqu’en 2013, il a photographié régulièrement Berlin. Dans ce livre, il fait revivre la construction du Mur, les visites de Robert Kennedy et de la reine Elisabeth, le congrès Tunix des intellectuels européens qui marque le début des mouvements alternatifs, la chute du Mur, la ville en friche puis la reconstruction des deux côtés d’une frontière abolie mais jamais complètement effacée, et enfin le Berlin d’aujourd’hui. Moments forts de l’Histoire ou du quotidien des Berlinois, tout est saisi par un regard très personnel qui s’attache d’abord aux hommes et femmes, célèbres ou anonymes.
