Summary:
This publication brings together a range of private homes built since the 1950s in Salento, in the area to the south of Lecce: single and double-family dwellings which, in terms of quality and variety, represent a unique example of spontaneity and aesthetic anarchy on the Italian architectural panorama. The study is carried out with the contribution of three photographers and two historians of architecture, and examines a highly peculiar phenomenon from an unusual perspective. In Southern Salento, in the area lying between Capo di Santa Maria di Leuca, Porto Cesareo on the Ionian Sea and San Foca on the Adriatic coast, house construction is founded on a solid craft tradition which, in open contrast with any institutional architectural school, has led to the rise of eccentric, free and fluid approaches to architecture. Investigating private living and its relation to public space, the volume opens a broader reflection on taste, celebrating its variety and imaginative scope.

Summary:
In 2004, following more than ten years of research, the European Space Agency decided to send the Rosetta probe to study the 67P comet Churyumov Gerasimenko, nicknamed ''Tchoury.'' After a ten-year voyage and hundreds of millions of miles crossed through space, the probe entered the comet's orbit and stayed there for 18 months- a first in the history of space conquest. Its lander, Philae, a kind of miniature science laboratory, landed directly on Tchoury's surface to sample matter for analysis. The mission: to find some answers to the questions of the origins of the solar system and the emergence of life on Earth. Among the important data collected by the Rosetta probe were scores of new photographs of the comet, printed in this volume in vivid detail . ''The Comet'' also includes a text by Jean-Pierre Bilbring, an astrophysicist involved with the Rosetta project.

Summary:
“This Place” is a monumental photographic project that explores Israel and the West Bank, as place and metaphor, through the eyes of 10 internationally celebrated photographers: Frédéric Brenner, Wendy Ewald, Martin Kollar, Josef Koudelka, Jungjin Lee, Stephen Shore, Rosalind Fox Solomon, Thomas Struth, Jeff Wall and Nick Waplington. Their photographs question the history, the divisions and paradoxes of the region and its inhabitants. From the photographers’ differing visual vocabularies, nationalities and cultural backgrounds, the picture that emerges is not a single, monolithic vision but rather a diverse and fragmented portrait.

Summary:
La production massive d’objets tend aujourd’hui à redéfinir la frontière entre les choses matérielles, prétendument inertes et passives, et l’être humain, considéré comme l’unique sujet doté d’agentivité. Loin d’être imperméable à cette redéfinition, l’image s’épand désormais hors de l’espace bidimensionnel : elle devient un objet en soi. Les artistes, auteures et auteurs du présent ouvrage s’intéressent ainsi aux univers qui se construisent entre les individus et leur environnement matériel, mettant en relief les rapports de réciprocité qui s’opèrent entre sujet et objet.

Summary:
Despite the rich discourse surrounding it and the dynamic practice that it engendered, the photographic avant-garde in Japan only existed for a brief period during the 1920s and ’30s. Yet it also contributed to the continuation of the production of radical visual arts and played a key role in the education of a post-war generation of Japanese artists who came of age in the 1950s and ’60s. Initially centred around Osaka and the Kansai region, the movement was inspired by contact with the work of photographers and surrealists overseas, at first through magazines and photobooks and later by touring exhibitions in Japan. This catalogue presents an impressive visual history of the movement.

Un photojournaliste, c'est d'abord un reporter qui écrit en images. La définition est simple et convoque immédiatement dans la mémoire collective une séries de noms et d'images entrés dans la postérité comme Robert Capa et la guerre d'Espagne ou Don McCullin et la guerre de Vietnam. Si les conflits, militaires ou sociaux, occupent toujours une place particulière dans le monde de photoreportage, le regard des photojournalistes s'est ouvert ces dernières décennies à d'autres réalités, développant des visions et des écritures plus singulières. Cet ouvrage réunit 134 photographes faisant oeuvre commune. Dans « Ce monde là », voyage unique à travers près de trente ans de photojournalisme, ils proposent une sélection personelle des images qu'ils on réalisées et qui ont marqué leurs parcours.

Summary:
L'histoire des femmes au XXe siècle est celle de leur émancipation. S'affranchissant de la tutelle de leur père ou de leur mari, elles finissent par obtenir tous les droits civiques, à l'égal des hommes. Ces cent années ont été pour les femmes une conquête de leur liberté. Comment ont-elles vécu durant ces décennies ? Quel sort leur réservait leur époque ? Qui étaient-elles ? Quelles femmes célèbres ont marqué leur temps ? Toutes ces vies ressurgissent à travers les 300 photographies rassemblées par l'agence photographique Roger-Viollet, de la fin du XIXe siècle à nos jours. Des images légendées par Agnès Grossmann, qui retrace et raconte la destinée de ces femmes.
