Résumé:
"Soak Wash Rinse Spin" investigates the cycles of the Tolleson Design creative process through a textual and graphic layering of information involving four phases: research (the intake of as much information as they can gather), collaboration (with the client and with the other members of the creative team), visual exploration (the workbook process, which includes refinements and the examination of multiple options), and environmental influences (consideration of the ultimate purpose of the solution). Tolleson Design, located in San Francisco since its inception in 1984, produces corporate and product identity, annual reports, web and interactive design, packaging, and environmental graphics for a broad client base that includes Kodak, Nike, Microsoft, Virgin Interactive, Urban Outfitters, and the San Francisco Ballet. Their work has appeared in design publications such as Communication Arts, Graphis, and I.D. Magazine, and has received hundreds of awards.

Résumé:
This influential text by French historian and theorist François Brunet considers the invention and history of photography as the birth of an idea, rather than a new type of image. This ''idea photography'' combines a logical theme- that of an art without artistry- and the democratic political promise of an art for all. Officially endorsed by the 1839 French law on the(...)

Résumé:
This influential text by French historian and theorist François Brunet considers the invention and history of photography as the birth of an idea, rather than a new type of image. This ''idea photography'' combines a logical theme- that of an art without artistry- and the democratic political promise of an art for all. Officially endorsed by the 1839 French law on the daguerreotype, this idea reverberated throughout the nineteenth century in Europe and America. Brunet shows how emerging image technologies and practices in France and Britain were linked to this logical/political construction of photography, from the earliest researches of Nicéphore Niépce, Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre, and Henry Fox Talbot up to the turn of the twentieth century. The parallel development of the Kodak camera and Alfred Stieglitz's ''straight'' vision in the United States then fulfilled, while also depreciating, the utopian promise of photography for all.

Résumé:
In this journey, Pedro Bandeira takes us to Arcosanti, the city of Paolo Soleri. In a tale about the experience of driving the American interior by car, avoiding cities and “collecting nature parks and deserts”, Pedro Bandeira wanders between the desert and the meaning of the trip. On the way, he finds Arcosanti, exploring the experimental city isolated in Arizona, revealing it in the negatives of the Kodak 35mm black-and-white film, uncovering the level of detail of Soleri's architecture, "capable of taming the various reinforced concrete masses" but also the "pragmatic informality" with which time and the community that lives there occupied the place. The book is part of the collection Journeys whose aim is to construct a map of emotions from unique journeys undertaken by recognised personalities from the architectural culture. A tour around the various continents, but also the universe of its authors.

Résumé:
Infra, Richard Mosse’s first book, offers a radical rethinking of how to depict a conflict as complex and intractable as that of the ongoing war in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Mosse photographs both the rich topography, inscribed with the traces of conflicting interests, as well as rebel groups of constantly shifting allegiances at war with the Congolese national army (itself a patchwork of recently integrated warlords and their militias). For centuries, the Congo has repeatedly compelled and defied the western imagination. Mosse brings to this subject the use of a discontinued aerial surveillance film, a type of color infrared film called Kodak Aerochrome. The film, originally developed for military reconnaissance, registers an invisible spectrum of infrared light, rendering the green landscape in vivid hues of lavender, crimson and hot pink. The results offer a fevered inflation of the traditional reportage document, underlining the growing tension between art, fiction and photojournalism.

Résumé:
"You press the button, we do the rest." Kodak used this slogan in ads for the first box cameras, introduced by George Eastman in 1888. From then on, virtually anyone could take pictures--the snapshot was born!~Without exception, the amateur photos presented in "Snapshots: the eye of the century" capture what are essentially ordinary moments--yet every trace of banality disappears once they are removed from the context of personal biography. Sometimes the moment is right, and art just "happens," in the form of double or multiple exposures, slipped horizons, or curious details that enter the picture frame because the camera moved just as the shutter was released. Christian R. Skrein-Bumballa, an artist and a former professional photographer, has tracked down and collected thousands of these treasures, which can be viewed as part of our visual heritage. His impressive selection of photographs is here arranged thematically, and at its heart we find the essentials of the human condition: joy and pain, visualized in the decisive moment in which history stands still for a fraction of a second. Snapshots features the most aesthetically notable and otherwise curious photographs from the S.A.S. Snapshots Archiv Skrein, a collection of nearly one million snapshots from all over the world.

Résumé:
Constitué en majorité de clichés inédits datant de 1972 et 1973, Surfaces américaines donna une nouvelle dimension à la photographie documentaire. Présenté pour la première fois à la Light Gallery de New York, ce journal visuel de Stephen Shore à travers les Etats-Unis déconcerta la critique. Ses centaines d'images en couleur, traitées en toute simplicité au laboratoire Kodak du New Jersey, contrastaient vivement avec les tirages noir et blanc formels représentatifs de la photographie artistique de l'époque. En dépit d'un accueil peu favorable, l'exposition fut reprise dans son intégralité par Weston Naef, conservateur de la photographie au Metropolitan Museum de New York qui accueille aujourd'hui 220 de ses photographies. Surfaces américaines est depuis ce jour une référence incontournable en matière de description de notre univers consumériste. Marchant sur les traces de Walker Evans et de Robert Frank lorsqu'ils traversèrent eux-mêmes les Etats-Unis, ce corpus artistique ne cesse d'influence de jeunes photographes. Ce livre réuni la plus grande collection d'images de cette série et les présente pour la première fois dans l'ordre chronologique. Surfaces américaines retrace l'extraordinaire périple de Stephen Shore, qui se rendit d'abord dans le Sud profond des Etats-Unis avant de suivre la Route 66 de Flagstaff à Chicago et de revenir à New York afin de poursuivre son journal visuel dans sa ville natale.

Résumé:
Photography has always depended on the extraction and exploitation of so-called natural raw materials. Having started out using copper, coal, silver, and paper—the raw materials of analogue image production in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries—photography now relies, in the age of the smartphone, on rare earths and metals like coltan, cobalt, and europium. The exhibition focuses on the history of key raw materials utilized in photography and establishes a connection between the history of their extraction, their disposal, and climate change. Looking at historical and contemporary works, it tells the story of photography as a history of industrial production and demonstrates that the medium is deeply implicated in human-induced changes to nature. The exhibition shows contemporary works by a range of photographers and artists, including Ignacio Acosta, Lisa Barnard, F Cartier, Susanne Kriemann, Mary Mattingly, Daphné Nan Le Sergent, Lisa Rave, Alison Rossiter, Metabolic Studio’s Optics Division, Robert Smithson, Simon Starling, Anaïs Tondeur, James Welling, Noa Yafe and Tobias Zielony, along with historical works by Eduard Christian Arning, Hermann Biow, Oscar and Theodor Hofmeister, Jürgen Friedrich Mahrt, Hermann Reichling, and others, and historical material from the Agfa Foto-Historama in Leverkusen, the Eastman Kodak Archive in Rochester and the FOMU Photo Museum in Antwerp as well as mineral samples collected by Alexander von Humboldt from the collection of the Museum für Naturkunde, Berlin.
