Todo el paisaje de mi infancia ha desaparecido . . . Edgardo Rodriguez Julia is an expert and lyrical guide to the history, inhabitants, and culture of his native city of San Juan, recalling scenes from his childhood while chonicling the social and physical changes in the city. Though superhighways have replaced the winding lanes and Puerto Ricans remain socially and politically divided, Rodriguez Julia also evokes picturesque imagery and the melancholy sweetness of remembrance as he leads readers through his Ciudad Sonada, his city of dreams.

Oliver Schuchard Photographs, 1967-2005 Oliver Schuchard Photographs,

By John Einarson

£16.50 01 Feb 2012 Paperback Stone Bridge Press

Over a thousand years old, Kyoto is a city of many layers that are often simultaneously exposed like the geological formations in a long-weathered cliff. This book is a collection of personal encounters, moments, and scenes of Kyoto that have touched the author through the years.

Duotone photographs of temples, landscapes, gardens, and people represent an essential vocabulary of Kyoto that has evolved over centuries through the interplay of culture, climate, and topography. This collection includes contributions by leading Kyoto writers Marc Peter Keane, Edith Shiffert, Diane Durston, and Preston Houser.

John Einarsen is the founding editor and art director of the award-winning Kyoto Journal.

Somewhere Else

By Annabel Elston

£65.00 30 Jan 2012 Hardback Steidl Publishers

London and Cornwall-based Annabel Elston is a flaneur, capturing the private moments that appear in public places. Her photographs reveal her working method as much as they reveal her subjects--she quietly wanders the streets, capturing people unaware. Elston's subjects are seductive, their anonymity enviable. Through the photographs, we politely invade their sleeping thoughts as they prepare to rise.
In addition to portraits, Elston photographs still lifes, interiors and reportage. Her editorial work has been included in "The World of Interiors," "House and Garden," "Observer" magazine and "Japanese Vogue." She has received advertising commissions from Hermes, Habitat, Volvo and Guinness and has contributed to publications such as "Pure Fuel" and "Surface Contemporary Photography." In 2007, the British Council commissioned her to photograph 40 British nationals living in Turkey, resulting in her first exhibition, with shows scheduled for London and Turkey.

By Greger Ulf Nilson, Gerry Johansson

£42.00 30 Jan 2012 Hardback Steidl Publishers

"Deutschland" is the final installment in the Swedish photographer Gerry Johansson's epic nation trilogy. As in his earlier books "America" (1998) and "Sweden" (2005), he portrays Germany by studying its more anonymous characteristics, by the neglected details and minor scarrings of the urban panorama. As he moves from town to town, Johansson sifts through the seemingly banal particulars of a country to produce cumulatively pungent insights into the state of the nation. Where most see nothing and no-one, Johansson shows us everything and everyone, but with the quietest of gazes and lightest of touches.
Gerry Johansson was born in 1945 in Orebro, Sweden. He has exhibited widely in Sweden and Germany, including at the Museum of Modern Art in Stockholm, and has published numerous books of his work.

Akt

By Greger Ulf Nilson

£42.00 30 Jan 2012 Paperback Steidl Publishers

At art school in Paris Maja Forslund spent a lot time seated before croquis models, sketching their swiftly-moving poses every day for months. Those sessions have been the raw material of painters' careers for hundreds of years, teaching them to interpret and shape the human form, but when Forslund returned to the subject matter as a photographer, she broke new ground. The camera adds another dimension. Details that would be elided by the nature and speed of a sketch stick indelibly to her compositions, creating Surreal and often tragic portraits. Props seem to become the models' belongings--a pair of slippers, a fan and some spots of paint accrue meaning--and the circumstance of being naked in a crowd is revealed as bizarre. A man in the midst of easels and scattered stools recalls a survivor on a battlefield. Forslund was born in Stockholm in 1975, and this is her first book.

Keeping Time in Sag Harbor

19 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMT

By Stephen Longmire

£45.00 19 Jan 2012 Hardback Center for American Places,US

For 300 years, Sag Harbor has been a prism reflecting facets of American history, from its heyday as a prominent whaling port worthy of mention in Moby-Dick, to a factory town shipping out Bulova watches, to its latest incarnation as an alternative coastal retreat to the exclusive Hamptons. Stephen Longmire explores the stories of this renowned eastern Long Island community in Keeping Time in Sag Harbor, a unique combination of fine-art photographs and historical text.

Architecture is a cornerstone of Sag Harbor's charm, because the village has preserved a full range of buildings, dating from the American Revolution to the present. These include the stately eighteenth- and nineteenth-century mansions lining what realtors have dubbed "Captains Row"; the modest homes of generations of working people from diverse backgrounds; the commercial facades of Main Street; and preserved public buildings such as the early Custom House and Minard Lafever's Whalers' Church.

The work to protect this architecture - and the economic and ecological balance it embodies - in the face of booming real estate development is at the heart of Longmire's account. Interviews with residents, both new and old, chart the evolving character of the village, exploring how it has struggled to retain its identity while learning to sustain itself on tourism. Anchoring this story are Longmire's own color photographs of Sag Harbor today and archival photographs and maps that reveal the many layers to the community's sense of place.

Keeping Time in Sag Harbor is an intimate portrait of a special place that is changing fast, despite almost all of the town being listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Through Longmire's images and words, we appreciate why Sag Harbor is both a unique American village and an example of what is happening to communities across the United States, from Santa Fe to South Beach.

But more than anything else, as its title suggests, this book is concerned with telling the truth--and rightly so, because few wars of modern times have ever been so lied about.

By H Stadler

£40.00 24 Oct 2011 Hardback Scheidegger und Spiess AG, Verlag

In 1968, American architects Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown, and Steven Izenour joined together with students from Yale University and took on Las Vegas as a subject of research. The group spent three weeks in libraries, four days in Los Angeles, and ten days in Las Vegas. The research led to the 1972 publication of the seminal architectural theory treatise Learning from Las Vegas. Photography and film were employed equally within as means of argumentation and representation. The original material has since been stored in the archives of Venturi, Scott Brown & Associates in Philadelphia. The firm has now opened up its archives and made the photographs available.

Chanel's Russian Connection

By Karl Lagerfeld

£26.00 25 Jul 2011 Paperback Steidl Publishers

Peripatetic Chanel head designer, book publisher, photographer--and now, film director--Karl Lagerfeld founded Metiers d'Arts in 2002 to showcase the talents of Chanel's seven specialist ateliers (that provide the couture house with costume jewelry, embroidery and millinery). This volume focuses on Chanel's 2008-2009 Metiers d'Arts collection "Paris-Moscow." If "Paris-Moscow" indulges Lagerfeld's fascination for Russia through fashion, then "Russian Connection" is that fascination embodied in book form. Lagerfeld's images evoke Imperial Russia, Constructivism, Catherine the Great, Faberge, Russian folklore and Coco Chanel's own passion for Russia, via the great Ballets Russes, Byzantine jewelry and her affair with the Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich. Included here is a DVD featuring Lagerfeld's directorial debut, "Coco 1913/Chanel 1923," a silent black-and-white film depicting Chanel's flirtation with Russian-Parisian emigre society in the 1910s and 1920s.

In the Street

By Jerry Thompson, Heinz Liesbrock

£40.50 25 Jul 2011 Hardback Steidl Publishers

Jerry Thompson has been photographing on the streets of New York City since the early 1970s, when he worked as Walker Evans' assistant. He has been called "one of the great classical American portrait photographers of this era" by the photo historian Michael Lesy. Over the years Thompson has explored a number of New York City neighborhoods, typically capturing the same streets day after day, for several months or years at a time. The earliest images featured here are from Coney Island in 1972, and the most recent were taken around Times Square in 2006. As an appendix, Thompson has added a selection of quotations related to the subject of photography and representation. Drawn from a lifetime of reading, these 54 quotes come from a range of sources--Stendhal, Aristotle, Heidegger and Coleridge--and are intended to concentrate the viewer's attention towards what the act of looking at photographs really is.

By Erich Hartmann

£20.00 25 Jul 2011 Hardback Steidl Publishers

"Here are pages from a photographer's summer notebook, the sights he wishes to remember, the feelings he wishes to record. These pages from my notebook encompass that same time, those same places, seen through a different eye, recorded in a different language..." So begins writer Ruth Bains Hartmann in this record of a 1968 summer holiday in coastal Maine that she shared with her husband, the renowned Magnum photojournalist Erich Hartmann. Her words and his images form an intimate distillation of a particular time and place. Long married, well traveled and often separated by work, the couple used their summer to claim a calm interval together, each recording their parallel yet distinctly different experiences. Erich Hartmann's stunning photographs of the couple's summer house and the idyllic Maine countryside are complimented by Ruth Bains Hartmann's memories of their shared lives there.

From South to North America, Africa to Europe, the Afar, Alakaluf, Mapuche, Kawesqar, Quechua, Chipaya, Guarani and Yanomami peoples are rooted, both physically and culturally, in their native lands, resisting the political, economic and environmental factors that threaten their expulsion or even extinction. French photographer Raymond Depardon has explored these communities and their intimate connections between language, land and memory. This volume is a meditation on human attachment to the earth and an exploration of the notions of rootedness and uprooting. Published on the occasion of the exhibition "Native Land" at the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain, Paris, this volume records Depardon's extensive travels, his color Polaroids accompanying the words of these diminishing populations. It celebrates languages and invites the reader to step into these different cultures, experiencing the resistance of those who wish to remain on their home soil.

Vive La Vie

By Francois-Marie Banier

£30.00 25 Jul 2011 Hardback Steidl Publishers

With his unique talent for capturing emotions using lenses, colors and words, artist Francois-Marie Banier inspires both his subjects and viewers to "conquerir le reve" (conquer the dream). "Vive la Vie" is an intimate monograph resulting from a collaboration between Banier and fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg. Based on a series of sessions arranged by von Furstenberg with model Natalia Vodianova, the images are layered with visual and emotional complexity. By combining his various skills--photography, painting and writing--into individual artworks, Francois-Marie Banier creates narratives that compel both the eye and the mind. Vodianova exposes her true, unmasked self, creating a blank canvas on which raw womanhood is revealed, far from the stereotypes of fashion photography.

Mobile Art: Chanel Contemporary Art Container by Zaha Hadid

By Karl Lagerfeld

£40.50 25 Jul 2011 Hardback Steidl Publishers

The Chanel Mobile Art Container is an extraordinary traveling exhibition space built by architect Zaha Hadid at the invitation of Chanel helmsman Karl Lagerfeld. This book collects Lagerfeld's black-and-white photographs of the container, taken during its tour of Hong Kong, Tokyo and New York in 2008. The fluid architecture of this mobile, collapsible exhibition pod is echoed in Lagerfeld's images, which abstract the structure into a series of white curves and grey planes silhouetted against a black sky. The art inside, by some 20 international artists--including Yoko Ono, Stephen Shore and Sophie Calle--was inspired by the elements that give the Chanel bag its identity. Sylvie Fleury, for instance, lined an entire room in leather, creating the sensation of being able to walk inside the iconic purse. Included are three DVDs with amazing footage of the container against the backdrops of Hong Kong, Tokyo and New York.

Josef Sudek, Prag 1967

By Timm Rautert

£25.00 25 Jul 2011 Hardback Steidl Publishers

Born in 1896, Josef Sudek spent nearly his entire life in Prague, where he created a body of work of extraordinary complexity. Recognized as one of the most significant photographers of the twentieth century, Sudek, who died in 1976, was also a cult figure in his homeland.
Compelled as a young man by his fascination with Sudek's work, Timm Rautert visited Prague in the spring of 1967, shortly after he had begun studying photography. Rautert accompanied Sudek as he photographed the gardens in Little Prague on the left bank of the Moldau and met him in the darkroom and at his home. He came to know Sudek as a quiet man who lived modestly, sometimes happily spending the day with only bread and onions. This beautifully produced volume collects 42 black-and-white photographs from that pivotal time, alongside an essay (in German only) by Rautert.

Vivienne Westwood

By George Bernard Shaw, Juergen Teller

£17.50 25 Jul 2011 Hardback Steidl Publishers

Funny, sexy, exotic and a bit scandalous, this book brings together all of London-based photographer Juergen Teller's images for Vivienne Westwood's Spring/Summer 2008 campaign. In typical fashion, Teller photographed the collection by creating a highly theatrical mis-en-scene which involved the collaboration of not only the models but the legendary designer herself. Borrowing the theme, "The Adventures of the Black Girl in Her Search For God" from George Bernard Shaw's controversial 1932 novel of the same name--which is engagingly excerpted here--this collection has a strangely riveting quality that is enhanced in Teller's suggestive photographs by such props as plantains, tribal masks, tropical birds, machine guns, spears and various exotic animal hides.

On Her Road

By Swirc, Patrick

£18.00 25 Jul 2011 Hardback Steidl Publishers

"It was in Paris, the day before I left. A first kiss, the first day of April, the taste of her lips and words close to my mouth: 'See you soon, somewhere in China.' She is Sephardic, lives in China and is studying the traces of the country's Jewish past. I am half-Jewish through my father and half-Catholic through my mother. When asked if my name was Jewish I always answered: 'No, why?' Yet deep inside, I feel Jewish. A few weeks after that first kiss, I traveled to Kirghizstan as planned. West China was only a few hours away by bus. Using phone text messages, she guided me around China, sometimes through sinister cities, one of which Jews had inhabited during the twelfth century. It was on her road that I would reconnect with my origins."
Patrick Swirc studied photography in Switzerland but left to follow a striptease artist to Paris. He has since contributed covers to "Elle" and "Time."

Poste Restante

By Christer Stromholm

£60.00 25 Jul 2011 Hardback Steidl Publishers

Originally published in 1967, "Poste Restante" has become one of the most collectible photography books from the mid-twentieth century, ranking alongside the better-known publications of Robert Frank and Ed van der Elsken. This photographic autobiography details Strvmholm's extensive travels across the globe in a book constructed as an Existentialist diary. Juxtaposing the urbane and the macabre, combining portraiture and street scenes with abstract photographic fragments, the book uses metaphor and visual pun in an unrelenting stream of consciousness. In its sequence and design, it is a book that prefigures much of contemporary photographic publishing and art practice.

Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) has grown and changed from the version included with Photoshop CS2, and the subject of shooting photographs in RAW format has taken a solid foothold in the rapidly evolving world of digital photography.

The Looking Glass

By Lynn Goldsmith, Glen O'Brien

£200.00 31 Jan 2011 Hardback Insight Editions, Div of Palace Publishing Group, LP

Lynn Goldsmith is a renowned photographer of actors, writers, rock stars, and other celebrities, but her most intriguing work is arguably her surreal self-portraiture. The sublime and colorful compositions presented in "In the Looking Glass" offer a perfect vehicle for Goldsmith's creative spirit, humor, and introspective nature. The layered scenes and clever staging echo the styles of Cindy Sherman and David LaChapelle, but Goldsmith's work features even more mischievous themes, detail, and theatrical settings that wittily explore the dichotomy of candid "self-portrait" and imaginative artifice.

Barns of Illinois

25 Dec 2010 00:00:00 GMT

By Kanfer, Larry

£29.99 25 Dec 2010 Hardback University of Illinois Press

As a state abounding with broad farmlands, Illinois has depended heavily on its barns. At once imposing and humble, the barns of Illinois are much more than simply a place to store equipment and livestock. As gathering places for friends and family, they have become focal points of local communities, an enduring link between the present day and the traditions of the past. With these iconic structures as our guideposts, we find our way across the open landscape of the geography and history of the Midwest.

In this magnificent new collection, renowned photographer Larry Kanfer documents the diversity of barns throughout the Prairie State, from weathered, abandoned shelters in the countryside to proudly well-preserved landmarks featured in barn tours and even Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo. Kanfer presents barns from every angle, inside and out, from a distance and up close, to capture the many reasons why they fascinate, inspire, and reassure.

With engaging prose, Alaina Kanfer recounts the histories of many of the barns featured, revealing each barn's unique character and tracing its distinctive imprint on the land and on people's lives. While many of the buildings continue to function within family farms for storage and shelter, others have been rescued and restored and put to a wide array of new uses, such as schools and gymnasiums in Kane and Effingham Counties, an animal rescue organization in McLean County, a winery in St. Clair County, and workshops in Sangamon and Union Counties.

With more than one hundred full color photographs of dozens of barns from across the state, Barns of Illinois presents these proud emblems of the heartland as never before - a unique chronicle of a state and its evolving way of life.

Photographs by Daniele Duca

By E. Carli, S. Socionovo

£25.00 20 Dec 2010 Paperback Alinari 24 Ore

Professional photographer and copywriter Daniele Duca was born in Ancona in 1967. This book presents a series of his photographs: a chance journey around objects which are used in everyday life, but which are also endowed with a surplus of esthetic significance. Duca's photography sublimates these objects of common use, freeing them from the banality of the observed. Duca takes the objects out of their original context and achieves the translation of meaning, enlarged by the spatial arrangement. In particular, Duca's position and shooting angle contribute to an animation of the inanimate.

Light Sources, 1992-2005

By James Welling

£25.00 20 Dec 2010 Hardback Steidl Publishers

Los Angeles-based artist James Welling has long used abstraction to challenge the technical and conceptual boundaries of photography. In the 1980s, Welling often employed simple materials like crumpled aluminum foil, draped fabric and pastry dough. In 1992, he began the series "Light Sources," the focus of this volume, which critic Carol Squiers has described as "a trope for the seductions of the quickly glimpsed, the half remembered, the partially understood, qualities that Welling wants to hold up, examine and admire without piercing the fragile surface of their own fugitive grace." While many of the objects depicted in "Light Sources" literally transmit light, the series also refers to the role of light in the photographic process and, indirectly, to how the human eye perceives light.
James Welling was born in 1951 in Hartford, Connecticut. A Professor of Art at UCLA, he is represented by David Zwirner in New York and Regen Projects in Los Angeles.

Portraits

By Fazal Sheikh

£31.50 20 Dec 2010 Hardback Steidl Publishers

For New York-born photographer-activist Fazal Sheikh, the portrait is an important tool. For more than two decades, as he has worked in different communities around the world, the invitation to sit for a portrait has been one of the principle means by which he has established a link with his subjects and been allowed to enter and document their lives. This volume contains the full range of Sheikh's work, from his earliest portraits taken in African refugee camps, through long-term projects in Afghanistan, Northern Pakistan, Somalia and Kenya, to more recent work in South America and India. Many of his subjects have been displaced from their homes or their countries, and their lives have been lived under the threat of violence, poverty and discrimination. With a text by writer and theorist Eduardo Cadava, this book tackles difficult issues, raising the moral dilemma of documenting the lives of disadvantaged people within the context of contemporary art.

Far Too Close

By Martina Hoogland Ivanow

£29.00 20 Dec 2010 Hardback Steidl Publishers

"Far Too Close" is a visual meditation on distance, both physical and emotional. Favoring a smoky palette, Stockholm-born Martina Hoogland Ivanow's photographs have a foreboding air. Over the past seven years, she has traveled to Siberia, Sakhalin Island to the north of Japan, Tierra del Fuego on the southern tip of Argentina and the Kola Peninsula in Russian Lapland, capturing family portraits, home interiors and landscapes in some of the most remote and inhospitable places on earth. Ethereal and just a little sinister--Ivanow can make a field of daisies look dark--these images are filled with a drama that suggests something is about to happen, though just "what" remains tantalizingly ambiguous. With 40 color plates, this volume provides an in-depth look at Ivanow, whose work has also been featured in "Another Magazine," "Dazed & Confused" and "Blindspot."
Martina Hoogland Ivanow, born in Stockholm in 1973, currently divides her time between Sweden and New York.
