Doisneau’s work immortalized the magic of Paris for posterity; this stunning compact edition, edited by the artist’s daughters, includes over six hundred photographs. Doisneau is celebrated for his ability to infuse images of daily life with poetic nuances that have brought enduring popular appeal to his photojournalism. This collection pairs aesthetically-composed photographs alongside snapshots that offer a more personal account of Doisneau’s Paris. Organized thematically, this book—unprecedented in scope—gives an entrancing tour through the gardens of Paris, along the Seine, and amid the crowds of Parisians who live in and define their bewitching city. "An enchanting cross-section of Parisian life by one of the photographers who best captured its many charms." — The New York Times , 2005

“我们每一个人，如果不是各种经验、信息、我们读过的书所想象过的事物等等的复合体，又是什么呢? 每个人的生活都是一部百科全书、一个图书馆、一份器物清单、一系列的风格；一切都可以不断地混合起来，并且以一切可能的方式记录下来。” ——卡尔维诺 《在克拉科夫的十日》以一种介于旅行笔记和手札之间的形式呈现。尽管这本书并没有目录，但是书的整体结构实际包含了三个隐形的章节，它们被构架在看似零散的排版形式之上——1.战争；2.城市；3.联结（从彼处到此处／从我到你）。书中所出现的素材包括我在克拉科夫逗留的10天之内留下的快照、手记以及收集的老照片，以及对于三件既存作品的引用（电影截图以及文字摘录）。这三件作品包括：《空中杀手》（2008年，导演：押井守）、《看不见的城市》（作者：卡尔维诺）以及《我略知她一二》（1967，导演：戈达尔）。对于三件既存作品的引用划分出了这三个隐形章节的框架。来自三个不同年代与背景的既存作品与我在克拉科夫10天之内所搜集的素材交织在一起，它们之间的关系时而紧密交织，时而又相对松散。通过排版与排列的节奏调和，这些素材逐渐在书中编织出一条模糊而开放的叙事。 一直以来我都对于旅行者的状态很感兴趣。当我们前往一个陌生的城市并只能停留很短的时间时，个人的经验与知识是否能与城市庞大的时间网络发生关联？我们此时在此地所遭遇的事物，是否能与彼时在此地发生的事件产生联结？这本书呈现的仅仅是诸多可能性中的一种：倘若我并没有在2013年7月16日去Hala Targowa购买旧照片，没有在7月15日前往波兰航空博物馆参观，或者没有在2011年就看过戈达尔的电影《我略知她一二》，也许这本书依然会诞生，但它最终的叙事和形式可能完全会是另一种样子。 物理学家Julian Barbour曾假设过一个全部由“此刻”（Nows）组成的无时间的宇宙。他这样说道：“隐秘的时间之河是不存在的。但却存在可被称为 时间点(instants of time)，或者‘此刻’的东西。在我们的生命过程中，我们就像是穿过一段连续的此刻，问题在于，它们是什么呢？它们是宇宙中一切在任何时刻彼此关联的排列，比如，现在”从另一个角度去假设，或许过去、现在与未来之间不存在真正的间隔，每一个“此刻”都是由无数条时间轴汇集而成，也因此，没有任何一件事物是孤立存在的，一切都是彼此关联的。事实上，这种假设或许就被投射在我们的日常周遭中，譬如在充满繁复印记的墙面上，或者我们时刻都被多重信号所充斥的头脑里。 ——杨圆圆，2014

A powerful collection of the luminous last work by one of the true giants of twentieth-century photography. After the death of his wife, André Kertész consoled himself by taking up a new camera, the Polaroid SX70. As with earlier equipment, he mastered the camera and produced a provocative body of work that both honored his wife and lifted him out of depression. Here Kertész dips into his reserves one last time, tapping new people, ideas, and tools to generate a whole new body of work through which he transforms from a broken man into a youthful artist. Taken in his apartment just north of New York City’s Washington Square, many of these photographs were shot either from his window or in the windowsill. We see a fertile mind at work, combining personal objects into striking still lifes set against cityscape backgrounds, reflected and transformed in glass surfaces. Almost entirely unpublished work, these photographs are a testament to the genius of the photographer’s eye as manifested in the simple Polaroid.

By way of follow-up to his critically acclaimed debut monograph "Sleeping by the Mississippi," Alec Soth turns his eye to another iconic body of water, Niagara Falls. And as with his photographs of the Mississippi, these images are less about natural wonder than human desire. "I went to Niagara for the same reason as the honeymooners and suicide jumpers," says Soth, "the relentless thunder of the Falls just calls for big passion." The subject may be hot, but the pictures are quiet, the rigorously composed and richly detailed products of a large-format 8x10 camera. Working over the course of two years on both the American and Canadian sides of the Falls, Soth edited the results of his labors down to a tight and surprising album. He depicts newlyweds and naked lovers, motel parking lots, pawnshop wedding rings and love letters from the subjects he photographed. We read about teenage crushes, workplace affairs, heartbreak and suicide. Oscar Wilde wrote, "The sight of the stupendous waterfall must be one of the earliest, if not the keenest, disappointments in American married life." Niagara brings viewers both the passion and the disappointment--a remarkable portrayal of modern love and its aftermath.

For the past seven years, Hellen van Meene has been producing intimate portraits of adolescents. Though the introspective gaze of her models suggest that these are spontaneous, private moments in the lives of her subjects, the carefully considered natural light, lush textures, and striking compositions betray van Meene's hand in choreographing each image down to the finest detail. Throughout, the picturesque qualities are undercut by a disquieting tension: the models' clothes are ill-fitting or inside-out; one girl is asked to lie in a cold bath, fully clothed; another models a fresh bruise. This intimate collaboration between the photographer and her models simultaneously exposes the uncertain nature of adolescent identities and the complicated act of capturing them on film.

Ansel Adams (1902-1984) produced some of this century's truly memorable photographic images and helped nurture the art of photography through his creative innovations and peerless technical mastery. This handbook- the second volume in Adams' celebrated series of books on photographic techniques- has taught a generation of photographers how to use film and the film development process creatively. It remains as vital today as when it was first published. Anchored by a detailed discussion of Adams' Zone System and his seminal conept of visualisation, THE NEGATIVE covers artificial and natural light, film and exposure, and darkroom equipment and techniques. Numerous examples of Adams' work clarify the principles discussed. Beautifully illustrated with photographs by Adams as well as instructive line drawings, this classic manual can dramatically improve your photography.

在线阅读本书 An Essential Primer on Understanding Photography by One of theWorld's Most Influential Photographers "In my roughly twenty years of writing about photography, I don't thinkI've come across a book that has implied so much with so few words, a bookthat raises so many important questions with so little fanfare and withsuch precision."-James Kaufmann, Photographer's ForumBy the age of 14, Stephen Shore (b.1947) took his first photograph.By 17,he was a regular at Andy Warhol's Factory photographing both the artist andhis entourage.At 23, he became the first living photographer to have aone-person show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.At 35, he was appointedDirector of the Photography Program at Bard College.An unrivalled pioneerin the field of color photography, his work has been exhibited in numerousmuseums worldwide, including an exhibition opening this May at theInternational Center of Photography that focuses on the work from hiscritically acclaimed books American Surfaces and Uncommon Places.Withsuch an impressive career, no one is a better suited guide to the nature ofphotographs.

In 2000, Ryan McGinley, then a student, staged his first exhibition of photographs in an abandoned SoHo gallery. To coincide with the show, the artist created several handmade books featuring a sampling of his work entitled The Kids Are Alright . A copy eventually found its way into the hands of Sylvia Wolf, then a curator of photography at the Whitney Museum of American Art. In 2003, Wolf mounted an exhibition of his work at the venerable institution, the youngest artist to ever have a solo show at the museum. What Wolf recognized—and what other critics, curators, and collectors would quickly discover—was an artist who understood and chronicled his own generation (habituées of New York City’s downtown) as no artist had before him. McGinley had managed to capture the hedonistic adventures of youth culture—kids hanging out and enjoying life—but without the dark underbelly of earlier artists who mined similar themes. As the work evolved, he moved away from the more documentary aspect of the early photographs and began to create scenarios where he could explore different ideas (aesthetic and otherwise). This eventually led to the now legendary summer-long road trips, capturing groups of twenty-somethings amongst a variety of American landscapes. In his most recent body of work, McGinley continues to explore—in black and white as well as in color—the body but in the still, pared down atmosphere of his studio. In this first major monograph chronicling the entirety of the artist’s career, McGinley’s work is considered by three extraordinary figures: Chris Kraus, novelist and critic; John Kelsey, writer, artist and activist; and Gus Van Sant, the auteur filmmaker. Each attends—through the lens of their own rich insights—to various aspects of the artist’s work and creative process, offering in-depth and unique perspectives on McGinley’s work and import.

Leichte Mädchen und schwere Jungs in Brassais Paris. "Brassai ist ein wandelndes Auge", schrieb Henry Miller über den aus Ungarn stammenden Künstler, der nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg Paris zu seiner Wahlheimat erkor und zu einem der gefeiertsten Fotografen dieser Stadt wurde. Brassai (1899-1984), der als Maler begann, bevor er sich der Schriftstellerei, Bildhauerei, dem Kino und vor allem der Fotografie widmete, für die er berühmt wurde, gehörte der Pariser Kulturelite an und zählte Miller, Picasso, Sartre, amus und Cocteau zu seinen Freunden. Mit der Kamera in der Hand durchstreifte er die Straßen und Bars von Paris und portraitierte die Bewohner der Stadt ungeschminkt in ihrer natürlichen Umgebung. Prostituierte, Gauner und andere "Randerscheinungen" waren die berühmtesten Helden seiner stimmungsvollen Fotografien, die häufig bei Nacht entstanden. Neben einer umfangreichen Auswahl aus Brassais besten Fotografien und einem Essay, der Leben und Werk des Künstlers beschreibt, erkundet dieser Band Brassais Welt in thematischen Kapiteln: die Zeitschrift Minotaure, Paris bei Nacht, Das geheime Paris, Bei Tageslicht, Begegnungen mit Künstlern und Graffiti und Verwandlungen.

Here are forty-six contemporary image-makers who are noted for their candid depictions of life on the streets and in the subways, at shopping malls and movie theaters, on beaches and in parks. Included are luminaries such as Magnum members Bruce Gilden, Martin Parr, and Alex Webb (who are still “seeing what is invisible to others,” as Robert Frank put it), along with an international group of emerging photographers whose individual biographies illuminate the stories behind their pictures of New York, Tokyo, Delhi, or Dakar. Four thought-provoking essays and a global conversation between leading street photographers explore the compelling and often controversial issues in the genre. A select bibliography and a resource section for aspiring street photographers complete the book. 300+ full-color photographs
