Résumé:
Loved, hated, revered, scorned, real, imagined: this is Los Angeles. "Looking at Los Angeles" is a fascinating journey into the centre of the city’s heart and soul. Pictured within its pages is a Los Angeles of powerful dreams and startling realities. Editors Marla Hamburg Kennedy and Ben Stiller have gathered pictorial representations of Los Angeles from the last three-quarters of a century, resulting in this selection of more than 200 stunning, beautifully reproduced colour and duotone depictions of the city from different eras and different points of view. Along with the carefully chosen images by approximately 100 photographers who have time again turned to Los Angeles for inspiration, a preface and foreword by the editors describe their great affection for the city, while David L. Ulin’s essay offers a critical and loving look at Los Angeles. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the Los Angeles Conservancy, and the organization provides an essay about the importance of saving this city's rich architectural heritage. "Looking at Los Angeles" is at once a lesson in history, architecture, style, and culture, and a remarkable visual and written tribute to one of America’s greatest cities. Includes photographs by: Robert Adams, John Baldessari, William Claxton, Will Connell, Joe Deal, John Divola, William Eggleston, Sam Fentress, Anthony Friedkin, John Humble, Dennis Keeley, Florian Maier-Aichen, Grant Mudford, Karin A. Mueller, Catherine Opie, Ed Ruscha, Stephen Shore, Julius Schulman, Joel Sternfeld, Timothy Street-Porter, John Swope, Andy Warhol, Julian Wasser, Robert Weingarten, Garry Winogrand, Max Yavno, and others.

Résumé:
This album is a collaboration between Rudy Burckhardt, one of the great New York photographers of the 1930s and ’40s, and his companion and lifelong friend, the poet and dance critic Edwin Denby. Previously unpublished, and reproduced here in facsimile, New York, N. Why? is a unique, handmade book containing 67 photographs and seven sonnets. Now in the collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, it contains many of Burckhardt’s best-known images, dazzlingly sequenced into three urban themes – advertising, pedestrians, and street furniture. The photographer and poet met in Basel, Switzerland in 1934 and moved the following year to New York. There, the Burckhardt instinctively sought out what others overlooked – the abstract modernist tableaux of fire hydrants, standpipes, cornices, and columns; the readymade collage of newsstands and storefronts; and the complex choreography of pedestrians darting and weaving through crowded intersections. An accompanying essay by Doug Eklund, Associate Curator in the Department of Photographs at the Metropolitan, examines the album in relation to Burckhardt’s contemporaneous films, Denby’s pioneering writing on dance from the same moment, and the origins of the New York School in painting, photography, and poetry.

Résumé:
Dès l'invention du premier procédé de photographie, la daguerréotype, il apparaît évident que la nouvelle découverte doit être mise au service de l'archéologie, et remplacer désormais le dessin ou la gravure. Très vite, les vues des monuments se multiplient et les sites archéologiques italiens, fréquentés depuis deux siècles par les voyageurs du « Grand Tour », deviennent un motif de prédilection des photographes, en particulier des frères Alinari, qui, en 1854, ont créé à Florence leur atelier de reproductions d'art. Du nord au sud de l'Italie, de Suse à Ségeste, ils nous font découvrir l'immense amphitéâtre de Vérone, Rome, mille et mille fois glorifiée, entre Palatin, Forum et Colisée, la villa Hadriana et le temple de la Sibylle à Tivoli, les vestiges d'Herculanum, et surtout Pompéi, qui dévoile son immensité, ses intérieurs décorés, ses morts aussi, figés dans l'éternité. Dans le sud, ils montrent Paestum et ses temples immergés dans la solitude, les sites de Sicile, plus sauvages encore... Des images singulières, tout à la fois porteuses d'informations et d'émotion, entre décor antique « authentique » et cadre pittoresque du XIXe siècle, qui sont les premières représentations de ces lieux qu'aujourd'hui nous parcourons en touristes aisés, guide et appareil photo en main, trop rarement seuls. Outre les frères Alinari, d'autres photographes, italiens mais aussi anglais, allemands, français, ont fixé ces ruines et figurent dans ce livre : Brogi, Crupi, Caneva, Anderson, Graham, Macpherson, von Gloeden, Flachéron... Préface de Charles-Henri Favrod.

Résumé:
In 1935, well into the era of Soviet communism, Russian satirical writers Ilya Ilf and Evgeny Petrov came to the U.S as special correspondents for the Russian newspaper Pravda. They drove crosscountry and back on a ten-week trip, recording images of American life through humerous texts and the lens of a Leica camera. When they returned home, they published their work in Ogonek, the Soviet equivalent of Time magazine, and later in the book Odnoetazhnaia Amerika (Single-Storied America). This wonderful lost work—filled with wry observations, biting opinions, and telling photographs—is now collected in "Ilf and Petrov's American road trip", the first English translation.

Résumé:
With 'But Still, It Turns', Paul Graham curates a subtle thesis and revitalising manifesto for photography. The dynamic and diverse work gathered here advocates an unashamed, but not uncomplicated, dedication to the brilliant tangle of reality. Without being tempted by the artifice of the studio or the restrictive demands of conventional documentary, these artists tell open-ended stories that shift, warp, and branch, attuned unfailingly to life-as-it-is.
