Summary:
En 1932 Albert Londres, disparaissait tragiquement en mer. Reporter de terrain, l’homme a parcouru le monde pour enquêter, alerter, dénoncer. Considéré grâce à ses écrits comme l’un des plus grands noms de l’histoire de la presse, il est aussi l’auteur de quelque 800 photographies illustrant ses enquêtes, certaines publiées ici pour la première fois. Par l’écrit, Albert Londres dénonce. Par l’image, il prouve – accompagnant ainsi l’essor de l’image dans l’information et l’émergence du photojournalisme. Ce livre est donc à la fois une plongée dans l’histoire du début du XXe siècle, un voyage aux origines du journalisme contemporain, et une réflexion sur le rôle qu’y joue l’image. Il est accompagné d’un texte d’Hervé Brusini, journaliste, président et ancien lauréat du Prix Albert Londres.

Le procédé de tirage Fresson, qu’elle privilégie jusqu’à la mort de Michel Fresson (2020) avant de pratiquer le tirage sur un papier japonais artisanal, donne à ses clichés un aspect velouté et des couleurs spectrales. Elle est une photographe de la nuit, de l'illusion, du rêve.

Summary:
The story of this book was built over time, through the many exchanges that took place between a photographer, the editors, graphic designers and authors. The publication is structured around five photographic series, each devoted to a particular building, site or architect: Château de Chambord in France, Dilmun Burial Mounds in Bahrain, Joze Plecnik’s buildings in and around Ljubljana, Rio Tinto in Spain, and Victor Horta’s Centre for Fine Arts in Brussels. It is, especially, a book of (hi)stories in which the series by Maxime Delvaux are accompanied by texts. For these, various authors have been invited to react to the images with the idea of experimenting with the text: fiction, historical essay, round-table discussion, scientific text and photonovel. Graphic designers played with text and images to give them form. The reader is in turn invited to create possible alliances between images and texts. Like Maxime Delvaux’s photographic approach, these texts and their articulation with the photographs are specific to each subject, illustrating five ways of showing and telling about places near and far.

Summary:
Being visual climate thermometers, glaciers are usually portrayed and talked about from that perspective. But Swiss photographer Julian Stetler looks at glaciers as living beings and active protagonists. Born out of the permanent metamorphosis from snow to ice, they are uniquely dynamic. From the human perspective, we can only ever perceive slices of them; they exist in a different timescale, beyond our grasp. This book examines the many ways of glacial expression, the diverse shapes and colours they assume, and how they influence and mingle with their surroundings. With a poem by Daniela Molnar, plus contributions by a journalist, a landscape architect, and a microbiologist.

We just observe Christmas Eve by buying cake and bringing it home to eat; lovers spend it together as the most romantic night of the year. These kinds of customs have become the norm. I could suddenly play the part of the righteous Buddhist and call everyone out on it – You dumbasses, you aren’t even Christians – but it feels like it’d be a waste." — Issei Suda

Summary:
A hugely respected figure in Scottish photography, Douglas Corrance has spent the last six decades training his lens on interesting subjects here in Scotland and around the globe. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Douglas was a budding photographer who loved wandering the streets of Edinburgh in search of sights to document, This latest title, Douglas' fourth with Café Royal Books, takes us on a nostalgic trip back to the capital as it was in the days when milk deliveries were still hauled by horses and carefree children were forever out playing on the pavements. Across the 38 images contained in the photozine we're treated to the sight of ordinary scenes that have become extraordinary with the passing of the decades.
