Résumé:
Photography’s development as a new form of art and technology coincided with profound changes in the way China engaged with the world in the nineteenth century. The medium evolved in response to war, trade, travel, and a desire for knowledge about an unfamiliar place. "Power and perspective" provides a rich account of the exchanges among photographers, artists, patrons, and subjects in the treaty port cities that connected China and the West. Drawing primarily from the Peabody Essex Museum’s historic and largely unpublished collection of photographs, this generously illustrated volume examines the confrontations and collaborations that shaped the adoption and practice of photography in China. Offering an original reassessment of the colonial legacy of the medium, "Power and perspective" addresses photography’s representations of racial hierarchy and its entanglement with histories of European imperialism in nineteenth-century China.

Résumé:
Robert Adams, one of America’s foremost living photographers, has spent decades considering and documenting the landscape of the American West and how it has been altered, disturbed, or destroyed by the hand of man. A professor of English before turning to photography, Adams is also a skilled writer and acute thinker on aesthetic questions. A collection of conversations (some previously unpublished) with writers and curators—William McEwan, Constance Sullivan, and Thomas Weski, among others (including a group of his students) offers the artist’s thoughts on a number of his now legendary projects, including "Cottonwoods" and "What we bought". This publication includes a selection of twenty-eight unpublished landscapes. Foreword by Richard B. Woodward.

Résumé:
Pensée comme un récit collectif et pluridisciplinaire, la deuxième édition du festival du Jeu de Paume intitulée « Paysages mouvants » convoque de nouveaux imaginaires liés aux espaces naturels, les confrontant aux archétypes – la jungle, l'oasis, le ciel, le désert, la forêt – et aux symboles intemporels que des siècles de représentation ont contribué à ancrer dans l'inconscient collectif. Le catalogue publié à cette occasion se compose de deux livres assemblés sous une même couverture. Le premier réunit les contributions d'écrivain·e·s invité·e·s à imaginer un récit inspiré par un paysage, allant d'une traversée dans un monde de sensations à une plongée originelle dans le bassin du Congo, et poursuivant le voyage sur une embarcation en Patagonie, invitant à l'aventure au pied d'un glacier, suivant, enfin, les chemins de l'exil et du retour aux sources. Le second livre peut s'ouvrir en vis-à-vis du cahier des textes : il contient un portfolio des œuvres exposées, accompagnées de leurs notices respectives.

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:
The Soviet Union was unique in its dynamic use of the illustrated book as a means of propaganda. Through the form of the book, the USSR articulated its utopian (and eventually totalitarian) ideologies and expressed its absolute power through avant-garde writing and radical graphic design that was in full flower during the 1920s and 1930s.

Through the form of the book, the USSR articulated its utopian (and eventually totalitarian) ideologies and expressed its absolute power through avant-garde writing and radical graphic design that was in full flower during the 1920s and 1930s. The Soviet Photobook 1920-1941 presents 160 produced photobooks from this period and includes more than 400 additional reference illustrations.
