Stephen Shore is a pioneering photographer and influential teacher. From Galilee to the Negev is an intimate portrait of a multi-faceted place, exploring the landscape of Israel and the Palestinian territories of the West Bank; its complexities and its contradictions. Shore travelled the length and breadth of the region, questioning and revealing through his camera lens. His visual inquiry explores the landscape itself and the people who live in it - the daily lives and the narratives that combine to create this fascinating place - at once beautiful and ugly, safe and hostile. A selection of texts by a diverse range of writers - who have each selected one photograph as a spring board - will be interspersed amongst the photographs, offering a gathering of voices and perspectives.

Las fotografías de Amaia Hodge son reveladoras, contienen una emoción de la que ella misma a veces no es consciente. Le interesa el paso del tiempo, como esa materia indefinible a veces estropea y otras embellece esos lugares que retrato en una epoca anterior.

The acute observation, wit and colour of Martin Parr''s work since the mid-1980s has established him as one of the most successful and popular contemporary photographers and a leading member of the prestigious Magnum agency. The only comprehensive monograph of Martin Parr''s entire career to date, this second edition has been updated with completely new photographs and three new chapters assessing his most recent photographic work, as well as his expansion into the fields of curating, collecting and editing.Beginning with Martin Parr''s early black and white work, and moving through the development into his signature colour-saturated photographs, this newly updated monograph provides a complete overview of the acclaimed Magnum photographer''s career to date. By placing the everyday at centre stage, Parr is best known for his sharp and witty visual chronicling of British (and later, global) idiosyncrasies. Parr''s photographs have received popular acclaim, provoked controversy, and been applauded for their critical observations of the world we have built and inhabit.Val Williams charts Parr''s development as a photographer, from his early inspirations and outings with his grandfather, through his student days in Manchester and experimentation with documentary and art photography, to his sharply critical observations of the effects on global consumerism on our daily lives. Williams assesses contemporary reactions to his work as well as the social contexts in which the photographs were made. While she worked in close collaboration with Parr, having full access to his archives and based on extensive interviews with him, she retains a critical distance with which to evaluate his work and his public persona as a ''controversial'' photographer.Each illustrated chapter text is followed by an extensive section of spreads of his work. The book also offers a holistic view of his practice - with sections on his publications and collections of souvenirs and ephemera that have continued to inform his photographic practice.

We're all aware of getting older and may obsess over how our bodies gradually change with the years. Have you ever wanted to step back a few years and reconnect with a younger self? Would it be amusing or just plain creepy? Back to the Future is a book by Argentinean photographer Irina Werning, who takes old pictures and then mimics them years later with the subjects dressed, styled, and posed exactly as they were in the original. The results are quirky and a fascinating insight into the aging process. Surprisingly, the subjects often slip seamlessly into their old persona, so that even though their physical appearance may have changed, the spirit is still plainly the same.

The making of Elvis, behind the scenesElvis who? was photographer Al Wertheimers response when, in early 1956, an RCA Victor publicist asked him to shoot an up-and-coming crooner from Memphis. Little did Wertheimer know that this would be the job of his life: just 21 years old, Elvis Presley wasas we now knowabout to become a legend. Trailing him like a shadow, Wertheimer was given unlimited access to get up close and personal with Elvis; even as the singer was seducing young women in dark hallways, he allowed the photographer to record his every move. Wertheimer took nearly 3,000 photographs of Presley that year, creating a penetrating portrait of a man poised on the brink of superstardom. Extraordinary in its intimacy and unparalleled in its scope, Wertheimers Elvis project immortalized a young man in the very process of making history. (Just a month after he shot Elvis recording the Dont Be Cruel/Hound Dog record, it became the first ever to top all three Billboard charts.)

Pau Audouard es, sens dubte, un dels fotografs mes eminents de la Barcelona de principis de segle, no sols per la qualitat, la varietat i el volum de la seva obra, sinó tambe per la participació que ell mateix va tenir en els mitjans artistics de la ciutat. Prenent com a fil conductor la seva trajectoria professional, Nuria F. Rius desplega una diversitat de temes que passen, sobretot, per l’estudi de la professio de fotograf —des dels tallers familiars fins a les industries— i per les relacions artistiques i socials de pintors, escriptors i fotografs, pero que igualment atenyen aspectes mes sociologics, com ara la satisfaccio del professional que troba un guanyapa en un ofici.nou o el tedi del retratista amb inquietuds artistiques. En definitiva, aquesta primera monografia dedicada a Audouard, rigorosa i amena, representa una aportacio cabdal tant per a l’estudi de la fotografia com per a la historia de la cultura dels segles XIX i XX.

Segunda Edición de Obras Maestras de Francesc Catalá-Roca con la totalidad de su trabajo fotográfico.

El universo visual del siglo pasado está repleto de referencias que han violentado nuestra noción histórica de la realidad, gracias a la difusión de una única imagen. Una única imagen ha desmantelado de golpe nuestra nocion de la realidad historica, y mucho mas, cuando esa imagen ha venido acompañada por un colofon que explica la datacion de su contenido. En este sentido, el discurso o la informacion añadida que una imagen contiene sabido ya es que puede cambiarnos nuestra percepcion de la misma. No es lo mismo ver una mancha fotografica de un plano rojo, acuoso, que parece una tinta, y luego saber, ya sea por su titulacion o por su ficha tecnica o por una reseña-colofon que la explicita, que este cromatismo es sangre. Otra cosa es saber ademas que esta sangre, es humana o animal. Y mas aun, de que animal y/o humano. No es lo mismo la relacion perceptual que tenemos con el dato visual que nos aporta una referencia cercana, personal. Por ejemplo, si esa sangre es de un conocido. Pues en esta tesitura del "añadido conceptual-discursivo", la ultima obra de Adrian Aleman, que ahora se exhibe bajo el rotulo de SOCIUS II, traza una linea de investigacion de un radical significado. En ella, el artista tinerfeño abre una brecha de significados que revitalizan las lecturas revisionistas de la historia en funcion de como re-leemos desde la observacion, un paisaje, o mas que un paisaje, la imagen de un paisaje.Incluye textos de Omar-Pascual Castillo, Adrian Aleman, Antonio Anson y Juan Antonio Molina.

This monograph forms an introduction to the major themes and the key images of American photographer Joel Meyerowitz, illustrated with 55 chronologically-presented images that offer a fresh insight into his career.An introductory essay by Colin Westerbeck discusses Meyerowitz''s life and work and places him both in the context of his time and within the history of photography. Born in 1938 in New York City, Meyerowitz went to Ohio to study painting and medical drawing at the State University but moved back to New York to work in advertising as an art director-designer.He then started to take photographs, leaving his job to concentrate on his new career. Shooting film in black-and-white, he travelled around the United States for three months after which he was offered a Guggenheim Scholarship to take pictures on the theme of ''leisure time''.It is as an early advocate of colour photography that Meyerowitz has had the greatest influence, for he was instrumental in changing the attitude toward the use of colour from one of resistance to nearly universal acceptance.His subject matter evolved from incidents on city streets shot with a small 35 mm camera to the large format field photograph. Architecture, light and space - particularly at Cape Cod - acquired a new interest for him. After the destruction of the World Trade Center in New York, he was the only photographer granted unimpeded access to Ground Zero where he systematically documented the work of demolition and excavation, rescue and recovery. He has been awarded the title Photographer of the Year by the Friends of Photography, San Francisco. His work is in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, both in New York and he has been exhibited and published worldwide, for many years.
