Siguiendo la línea de su predecesor: La edad de oro del viaje en tren, la obra que ahora presentamos recrea el inigualable encanto de unos viajes y rutas marítimas que, a través de imágenes en blanco y negro y color, siguen exhibiendo el mismo glamour y sofisticacion que tuvieron en su momento. Los textos, que mezclan con acierto informacion y anecdotas de rutas, nos transportan una epoca que ahora se nos muestra tan inalcanzable como encantadora.

From photographer Santiago Melazzini, maker of popular flipbooks such as Tango Dancer and I Love You, comes a special four-in-one, full-color flipbook disguised as a stack of $100 bills. Running a thumb over the edges of the "bills" in the stack, the viewer will observe four short, satirical films on the transience of wealth. A recurring cast of characters plays roles based on stereotypes from slapstick silent movies: the wealthy, arrogant high roller; the robber in his prison stripes and domino mask; and the opportunistic showgirl. In a time of financial uncertainty gripping the world, this playful and good-natured item is a reminder that fortunes can change in the blink of an eye, but a sense of humor is an asset that, once possessed, can never be taken away.

Este 2011, cuando se cumplen setenta años desde que Halsman y Dalí se conocieron -el pintor y el fotógrafo se encuentran por vez primera en 1941, en los Estados Unidos-, nos ha parecido el momento idoneo para organizar la muestra Dali by Halsman en nuestro Castillo de Pubol.La muestra presenta una seleccion de ochenta y ocho fotografias (y tambien un gouache de Dali sobre fotografia) que Philippe Halsman le hizo a Salvador Dali, contando en todo momento con su participacion fisica y conceptual.Las imagenes en cuestion, que Dali habia conservado a lo largo de toda su vida, son reminiscencia de una colaboracion de treinta y siete años -de 1941 a 1978- con otro alquimista del proceso creativo.

Un ejercicio alquimista fotográfico que saca a la luz la extraña poética de lo siniestro.

The milestones stand beside the race tracks and roads of the world, marking the now 70-year history of the sports car manufacturer. In the world of motorsport, Porsche has always taken the unconventional route. The speedy lightweight hill climbers, for example, or the powerful 917; the first turbo victory at Le Mans; the first racing prototype with ground effect; and the first sports car victory contesting the famous desert race from Paris to Dakar. Then in 2015, 2016, and 2017, the Porsche 919 hat trick at Le Mans thanks to its unique hybrid technology. On the roads, the 356 had delighted automobile connoisseurs and die-hard sports car fanatics since the 1950s, becoming more beautiful and faster with every new sports car generation. The mid-sixties saw the rise of the 911. A stroke of genius whose design and technology is still being reinterpreted and reinvented to this day. And time and again, Porsche has continued to break with convention; see the 356 Speedster or 911 Carrera RS 2.7. The Boxster (which borrowed design details from the delightful 550) was a daring move. The Cayenne was also a risky venture that became a big hit. The Macan swiftly followed in the slipstream. A journey along the various milestones illustrates Porsche's long-held approach of breaking with tradition and striking out in new directions while staying true to itself and remaining unmistakably Porsche. That makes Porsche Milestones a spellbinding read for those inspired by the joy of a Porsche.

The Porsche 64, also known as the "Type 64" and "Type 60K10," is the great grandfather of all Porsche models. Back in 1938, the car possessed all the DNA—elegance, dynamism, and the most cutting-edge technology—that would go on to inform seminal Porsche models like the 911 or the 996. Still light years away from the sleek Cayenne of the new millennium and standard turbo-drive, this aerodynamic prototype already reached a top speed of 145 km/h. With thrillingly-staged photographs from Frank M. Orel and captivating texts from Elmar Brümmer, this book leads the reader through the origins of this premier sports car company and the evolution of its purist lightweight model, also proudly referred to as the "Berlin-Rome Car" after its participation in the Berlin-Rome long-distance race in 1939.

Our daily lives are overwhelmed by visual stimuli. With his works, Berlin artist Yoram Roth creates a counter-draft by placing a certain focus in the picture and thus giving the work an additional dimension, thus inviting us to linger. This luxurious new coffee table book, Nudes in Steel, gathers Roth's latest works that have a particular focus on the human body. It documents Yoram Roth's discovery, and mastery of the unique photographic language of crops, which has become his signature style. The collection spans four Yoram Roth series, each of which bring image details to the foreground with the help of steel frames. Thematically, the series is inspired by Renaissance and Baroque painting and evolves from narrative work (Quiet Devotion, 2012-2013); a play of light and shadow (Personal Disclosure, 2014-2015); a new emphasis on figuration (White Set, 2015); and a staging of the fragile human body in a harsh, inhospitable environment (Brutalism, 2016). The carefully created book reveals the artistic motivation and technical innovation behind these masterpieces in steel. In this way, the artist takes us on a visual journey that as a counter-draft to our daily optical overload of stimuli invites us to a contemplative picture enjoyment. Nudes in Steel presents Yoram Roth's masterpieces, carefully curated and juxtaposed in book form. Browse through the pages and take the time to let this artist photographer capture your imagination.

Xavier Miserachs (Barcelona, 1937-1998) llevó a cabo una ruptura en clave de modernidad venciendo la estrechez impuesta por la censura franquista y por la precariedad de la autarquía. Debido a su sensibilidad hacia lo humano, su sentido del humor y su inteligencia, sus reportajes tienen la fuerza de ensayos criticos cercanos a la autobiografia, de manera que su obra constituye una semblanza de la segunda mitad del siglo xx, asi como el retrato vivo y fresco de su actitud ante la vida.Este libro, que sirve como catalogo de la exposicion Xavier Miserachs. Epilogo imprevisto, representa la seleccion mas completa hecha hasta ahora del ingente archivo de Miserachs, e incluye las fotos del amateur, las del profesional, las imagenes en blanco y negro y a color y las de la experimentacion al trabajo por encargo, completando asi todos topicos que han hecho de este autor un clasico.
