Pranguas, Hogar de Michoacanos, reúne la fotografía y testimonios obtenidos en 18 comunidades indígenas de Michoacán, lo que representa una aproximación al vigor cultural de una de las etnias más importantes de Mexico: la purepecha. La comida, mas alla de un hecho biologico, es un elemento cultural tan importante como la lengua, el vestido o la vivienda. En la cocina purepecha concurren la pesca, la agricultura, la recoleccion, la fiesta, el rito y la fuerza aglutinadora de practicas ancestrales, que comprende visiones cosmogonicas, conocimientos sobre los recursos de diversos entornos naturales, luchas por la supervivencia y el papel esencial de las mujeres en estos procesos que terminan plasmandose en manjares.

Las fotografías monocromáticas de Karl Blossfeldt presentan estudios semi-abstractos de diversas especies de flora, uniendo los mundos de la creación gráfica de los siglos XIX y XX y aportando un enfoque claramente escultorico a un medio bidimensional. Este volumen recopila todas las imagenes publicadas conocidas, cada una de ellas todavia...Las hermosisimas fotografias de plantas de Karl Blossfeldt (1865-1932), pionero aleman de la fotografia, rebosan belleza y originalidad, al punto de transcender el medio mismo. A lo largo de mas de 30 años de trabajo, Blossfeldt realizo miles de placas, en las que revela un talento y un rigor formal enormes; su precision y dedicacion tienden puentes entre dos mundos, los de la creacion grafica en los siglos XIX y XX, y aportan un enfoque claramente escultorico a una disciplina artistica ferreamente bidimensional.Blossfeldt empleaba fondos lisos de cartulina para ofrecer un hermoso y marcado contraste con el motivo de sus imagenes, y recurria a la luz del norte para crear sensacion de profundidad; sus fotografias no revelan nada de quien las tomo, pero todo de si mismas. Hablamos de naturalezas muertas, agudas y definitivas expresiones del arte del bodegon, que han llegado hasta nosotros gracias a su estetica y a la continuada admiracion que despiertan entre estudiantes y fotografos. Todas ellas comparten con su creador una eficacia serena y muy duradera.Sobre la serieBibliotheca UniversalisCompañeros culturales en formato compacto para celebrar el universo eclectico de TASCHEN.No creo exagerar excesivamente si digo que los fotografos que saben de que va el tema llevaban tiempo esperando un libro como este que recogiera la obra publicada de Karl Blossfeldt.

At the turn of the century, the American photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis (18681952) started on his 30-year project to produce a monumental study of North American Indians. Using an approach that was both artistically and scientifically ambitious he recorded, in words and pictures, the traces of the traditional Indian way of life that was already beginning to die out. The most important images of Curtis' work have been included in this compact homage to the great photographer.

German photography pioneer Karl Blossfeldt (1865-1932) photographed plants so beautifully, and with such originality, that his work transcends the medium itself. Over more than 30 years, he took thousands of photographs, revealing a formally rigorous talent whose precision and dedication bridge the nineteenth and twentieth century worlds of image making and bring a distinctly sculptural aspect to a firmly two-dimensional art form. Beautifully but starkly composed against plain cardboard backgrounds, Blossfeldt's images, relying on a northern light for their sense of volume, reveal nothing of the man but everything of themselves. They are still-lifes, piercingly final statements on their subject, and have endured owing to their technical brilliance and the ongoing fascination of students and photographers. Like their maker, they are quietly and lastingly effective.

More than 60 million people visit New York City each year. Every single traveler experiences the city in a unique way. There is no such thing as one New York. Streets of New York is a New York photo book that celebrates the Big Apple's tremendous diversity by bringing together over 40 contemporary photographers and their multiple perspectives on this unique metropolis. Often drawing on a strong social media presence, each photographer offers her or his personal take on New York's unparalleled vibrancy, impact, and allure, creating both a rich collection of city photography and street style, and a visual catalogue of New York travel inspirations. Photographs of world-renowned New York landmarks and attractions like the Empire State Building, Brooklyn Bridge, and World Trade Center Transportation Hub are interspersed with pictures of New York's hidden treasures, tucked-away Manhattan charms, and lesser known, but equally interesting New York City districts-all captured with a present-day attention to detail and a wide-eyed love for the City that Never Sleeps.

For over thirty years, photographer Edward Sheriff Curtis (1868-1952) traveled the length and breadth of North America, seeking to record in words and images the traditional life of its vanishing indigenous inhabitants. Like a man possessed, he strove to realize his life's work, which culminated in the publication of his encyclopedia "The North American Indian." In the end, this monumental work comprised twenty textual volumes and twenty portfolios with over 2000 illustrations. No other photographer has created a larger oeuvre on this theme, and it is Curtis, more than any other, who has crucially molded our conception of Native Americans. This book shows the photographer's most impressive pictures and vividly details his journey through life, which led him not only into the prairies but also into the film studios of Hollywood.
