Brilliant, funny, charming, imperious, Diana Vreeland?the fashion editor of Harper's Bazaar and editor-in-chief of Vogue?was a woman whose passion and genius for style helped define the world of high fashion for fifty years. Among her eclectic circle of friends were some of the most renowned and famous figures of the twentieth century?artists and princes, movie stars and international legends, including Chanel, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Isak Dinesen, Clark Gable, and Swifty Lazar.Moving from English palaces to the nightclubs of 1930s Paris, the wilds of Wyoming to the exclusive venues of New York high society, D.V. takes readers into this iconic woman's dazzling life, evoking the luxury and brio of an era that encompassed Josephine Baker, England's Queen Mary, Buffalo Bill, and Diaghilev.Vibrant with the vivid, irresistible voice that elevated every tête-à-tête and dinner party, D.V. brings this renowned and uninhibited raconteur alive, whether recalling herself as a young girl, her search for the perfect red, her piquant observations about her world, or her abhorrence for nostalgia. Like her legacy, Vreeland's story, told in her own words, is a classic to be celebrated by both loyal admirers and a new generation of culture mavens and style savants.

Disko Bay er stolte af at præsentere 'The Name We Hold' af den italienske fotograf Luca Iovino - en intim og personlig fortælling om hverdagens koreografi, løftet op i et magisk realistisk rum fyldt med flyvende objekter, snørklede veje og mærkelige rutiner.Luca Iovinos sort-hvide æstetik forstærker rytmisk billederne i den mørke og mystiske fortælling 'The Name We Hold'. Bogen udforsker temaer og symboler, der leder fotografen i hans søgen efter at belyse et fundamentalt spørgsmål: Hvor findes hukommelsen? Er den at finde i menneskerne selv, i de hjem de bor i, eller måske i de drømmelignende og surrealistiske aspekter af virkeligheden? Disse elementer danner rammen om Iovinos visuelle udforskning, hvor han søger at definere begrebet "hjem" og en følelse af tryghed i en periode med store livsforandringer.Luca Iovino er en italiensk fotograf og kunstner baseret i Firenze. Projektet blev shortlistet til Fiebre Dummy Award 2023, Kassel Dummy Award 2023 og BUP Book Award 2023.

København før og nu – Byen fra skyen er en tidsrejse i billeder og tekst af en by i konstant forandring. Mens nogle ændringer sker hurtigt, sker andre langsomt over tid, hvilket især bliver tydeligt, når byen ses fra oven.Fotografen Nicolas Cosedis har været på jagt i arkiverne efter de bedste luftfotos af København fra de sidste 100 år. Efterfølgende har han fanget de samme motiver fra fly. Der er blevet bygget, revet ned og bygget igen, og København er blevet større og højere. Set oppefra er både genkendeligheden og forandringen tydelig.Billedsporets bevægelse mellem fortid og nutid spejler sig i arkitekturkritiker Holger Dahls tekster, hvor han med sin indgående viden om byen og dens arkitektur udforsker dens ekspansion og udvikling og giver læseren nye perspektiver på København: Fra den historiske bykerne til udviklingen af brokvartererne, forstæderne, Nordhavn, Sydhavnen og Ørestad.

- One of the most influential directors ever- Chantal Akerman's film Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles was named best film of all time by magazine Sight and Sound- With her unique and hyper-personal style, the Belgian director transformed both the film and art world- This book is a posthumous collective portrait of Akerman as one of thé filmmakers of our time, with contributions from people who admired her and worked closely with herFilmmaker and artist Chantal Akerman was one of the most fearless filmmakers of her generation. Her work blurs the boundaries of time and space, of film and art. It can be seen in cinemas and museums worldwide. She may be largely unknown to the general public, but she is revered by cinephiles, visual artists and filmmakers. The impact of her oeuvre on world cinema became abundantly clear when Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles was named best film of all time by British magazine Sight and Sound. In 2024, Bozar-Centre for Fine Arts, Jeu de Paume and CINEMATEK will pay tribute to Akerman by organizing the first major exhibition on the Brussels artist.

Den danske fotograf og kunstner Henriette Sabroe Ebbesen udvisker i sin første monografi Self Reflection grænsen mellem fotografi og maleri, virkelighed og fantasi i en udforskning af kroppen og det underbevidste selv.Spejle, refleksioner og illusioner er nogle af Ebbesens fotografiske værktøjer, hvormed hun undersøger, hvordan kroppen og sindet kan visualiseres og fortolkes. Ved at benytte reflekterende og forvrængende materialer udvisker hun grænsen mellem fotografi og maleri og skaber en symbolsk grænse mellem virkelighed og fantasi. Ved at placere natur, den nøgne krop, frugter og blomster i en surrealistisk kontekst, skaber Ebbesen en konflikt mellem det velkendte og det bizarre. Forvrængningerne skabes altid i kameraet ved at fotografere gennem forskellige refleksioner og aldrig ved hjælp af Photoshop eller AI, hvilket holder virkeligheden tæt på det surrealistiske.OM KUNSTNERENHenriette Sabroe Ebbesen (f. 1994) er en autodidakt fotograf og filminstruktør fra København. Formelt uddannet læge er Ebbesen interesseret i krydsfeltet mellem kunst og videnskab. Hendes studier af psyken, sanserne og kroppen ses i mange af hendes værker fra sønderrevne ansigter og forvredne nøgne kroppe til selvportrætter og stilleben. Ebbesens værker er blevet udstillet flere steder både i Danmark, Europa og USA, og hun har arbejdet for magasiner som Vanity Fair og Vogue. Bogen udgives med støtte fra Fotografiska Museum Stockholm i forbindelse med en stor soloudstilling af serien fra den 23. februar til den 12. maj 2024.

Der international bekannte Fotograf Michael Wesely fängt in seinen Fotografien Zeit und Leben ein.

The first amateur motion picture camera was massively produced in 1923, shortly after the introduction of 9,5 mm film by the Pathé Frères in France 101 years ago, in December 1922, and of 16 mm film by the Eastman Kodak Company in America a month later. The present collection depicts 101 movie cameras manufactured between the 1920s and the 1980s, most using 8 mm perforated celluloid film. A full-page 'portrait' of each model is accompanied by an exposé of its main technical specifications on the facing page. The guided tour leafs through a range of makes and companies from an era when novelty, aesthetics, industrial design, and competition for the commercial home market propelled the creation of sculptures out of metal and glass for the wide use by individuals and families who aspired to preserve their visual impressions in motion. The book is a useful source for hobbyists and collectors.

Do you know where your food comes from? To find out, acclaimed photojournalist George Steinmetz spent a decade traveling to over 30 countries and 24 US states documenting global food systems. In striking aerial photographs, he captures the awesome scale of 21st-century agriculture that has sculpted 40 percent of the Earth's landmass. He explores the farming of staples like wheat and rice, the cultivation of vegetables and fruits, fishing and aquaculture, and meat production, in situations ranging from traditional farms in diverse cultures to vast agribusinesses, on every continent except Antarctica.

Jakob Kudsk Steensen (geb. 1987 in Dänemark; lebt und arbeitet in Berlin) schafft immersive Installationen, die oftmals übersehene oder bedrohte Ökosysteme durch virtuelle Simulationen zum Leben erwecken. In seiner neuesten, von Caspar David Friedrich inspirierten - und anlässlich des 250. Geburtstages des Malers in der Hamburger Kunsthalle präsentierten - Arbeit setzt sich Steensen mit einem eindrucksvollen Naturphänomen auseinander: den Ephemeral Lakes, periodisch auftretenden Wasseransammlungen in trockenen, kargen, oft wüstenartigen Landschaften. Dafür schafft der Künstler eine Installation bestehend aus Video-, Sound-, Licht- und skulpturalen Elementen. Die Klangkomposition des Projektes entstand in enger Zusammenarbeit mit Okkyung Lee und Lugh O'Neill.   Die Publikation The Ephemeral Lake eröffnet Einblicke in die Forschungsreisen des Künstlers zu den ephemeren Seen in den Wüstenregionen der USA. Essays von Claire L. Evans, Liz Stumpf und Ulrich Schrauth führen in Steensens künstlerische Praxis ein. In einem Gespräch mit dem Autor und Kurator Shumon Basar spricht der Künstler über einige seiner Inspirationsquellen: Videospiele, Landschaftsmalerei und Science-Fiction. Ausschnitte der Kurzgeschichte Man-O-War der renommierten Autorin Claire Vaye Watkins liefern eine literarische Ergänzung zu Steensens Blick auf die endlosen Wüstenlandschaften des amerikanischen Westens. Die Publikation schließt mit einem Beitrag von Alexander Klar (Direktor Hamburger Kunsthalle), der sich mit den Parallelen in den Arbeitsweisen von Caspar David Friedrich und Jakob Kudsk Steensen befasst.    Inspired by Caspar David Friedrich  Jakob Kudsk Steensen (b. 1987 in Denmark; lives and works in Berlin) creates immersive installations that bring typically overlooked or endangered ecosystems to life in virtual simulations. Kudsk Steensen's latest work is inspired by Caspar David Friedrich and presented at Hamburger Kunsthalle on the occasion of the painter's 250th anniversary. It investigates a captivating natural phenomenon: ephemeral lakes, bodies of water that periodically appear in arid, barren, and often desert-like landscapes. The artist has created a site-specific installation for the Kunsthalle, consisting of video, sound, light, and sculptural elements. The soundscape was developed in close collaboration with Okkyung Lee and Lugh O'Neill.  The publication The Ephemeral Lake offers a gateway into the multilayered world and the starting point of the project-research trips to the ephemeral lakes of the desert regions in the US undertaken by the artist. Essays by Claire L. Evans, Liz Stumpf, and Ulrich Schrauth further give an introduction to the artist's visionary practice. In a conversation with writer and curator Shumon Basar the artist talks about his sources of inspiration: videogaming, landscape painting, and science fiction. The catalogue includes an essay by Alexander Klar (director of Hamburger Kunsthalle), which identifies parallels in the practice of Caspar David Friedrich and Jakob Kudsk Steensen. Excerpts from the short story Man-O-War by renowned author Claire Vaye Watkins provide a new dimension to Steensen's view of the vast desert scenery of the American West.

Dieser Band dokumentiert die erste, von Peter Lindbergh selbst kuratierte Werkschau, die er kurz vor seinem Tod fertigstellte. Über 150 Aufnahmen bieten neue, ganz unerwartete Einblicke in das Werk des legendären Fotografen. Ergänzt durch ein ausführliches Gespräch über die Entstehung sowie eine Hommage von Wim Wenders an Peter Lindbergh.

Während seiner gesamten Karriere stand Peter Lindbergh dem Haus Dior auf ganz besondere Weise nahe. Er fotografierte die schillernden Musen des Hauses, darunter Marion Cotillard und Charlize Theron, und realisierte mit seinem unverwechselbaren Stil Kampagnen für die Parfums Lady Dior und J'Adore. Dieses letzte Buch des Fotografen ist das Originaldokument einer außergewöhnlichen Ko-Kreation - und eine Herzensangelegenheit des Künstlers. Siebzig Jahre Dior-Geschichte und das Brodeln des Times Square in New York: Das war das Konzept hinter Lindberghs in Umfang und Dimension außergewöhnlichem Projekt, für das Dior in einer ebenso ungewöhnlichen Aktion eine beispiellose Anzahl von kostbaren Couture-Kreationen aus den Tresoren in Paris über den Atlantik schiffte. Das Ergebnis ist elektrisierend. Inmitten des Trubels am Times Square glänzt Alek Wek im makellosen Bar-Kostüm von 1947, jenem berühmten Ensemble, das den frühen Stil des Hauses definierte. Klassische "Lindbergh-Schönheiten" wie Saskia de Brauw, Karen Elson und Amber Valletta bewegen sich durch Menschenmassen und unter Gerüsten hindurch, spiegeln sich in Gebäudefassaden - gekleidet in Haute Couture, die Christian Dior noch von Hand fertigte, bis hin zu neueren Entwürfen von Maria Grazia Chiuri. Ein Spiel der Kontraste, das den Ambitionen dieser Stilübung jederzeit gerecht wird: Peter Lindberghs typisch monochrome, aber auch farbige Fotos heben auf meisterhafte Weise die Silhouetten, Feinheiten und Texturen jedes Kleidungsstücks hervor. Lindbergh selbst ist in dieser Publikation in jeder Hinsicht präsent. Dieser Band enthält 165 bislang unveröffentlichte Bilder, dazu eine Einführung von Martin Harrison, und würdigt Lindberghs langjährige Verbundenheit mit dem Pariser Modehaus Dior. Dafür stellte er mehr als 100 Fotografien zusammen, von Haute Couture bis zu Herren- und Damenkonfektionen, die ursprünglich in renommierten Zeitschriften wie Vogue oder Harper's Bazaar veröffentlicht wurden. Für die Gestaltung war Lindberghs langjähriger Artdirector und enger Freund Juan Gatti verantwortlich. Eine atemberaubende Hommage an das zeitlose Zusammenwirken von Haute Couture und Fotografie.

Die Pflanzenbilder des deutschen Fotopioniers Karl Blossfeldt (1865-1932) sind von einer solchen Schönheit und Originalität, dass sie das Medium der Fotografie transzendieren. Über 30 Jahre lang nahm Blossfeldt Tausende von Fotos auf, in einer rigorosen Formensprache, die die Bildproduktion des 19. Jahrhunderts ins 20. Jahrhundert überführte und der eigentlich zweidimensionalen Kunstform eine geradezu skulpturale Qualität verlieh. Die ebenso raffiniert wie minimalistisch vor einfachen Papphintergründen inszenierten Bilder erhalten ihre Plastizität durch Blossfeldts virtuose Lichtregie. Sie geben alles von sich, nichts jedoch von dem Mann hinter der Kamera preis. Diese Stillleben, die ihre Objekte so endgültig in Form bannen, sind ein Meilenstein der Fotografiegeschichte und üben aufgrund ihrer Ästhetik noch immer eine anhaltende Faszination auf alle Kenner des Mediums aus.

The photobook Permanent Concern consists of a series of smartphone photographs that Cavaliertook in the Netherlands in 2021. The objects and situations that he portrays are often recognizableand ordinary: from a plastic table to a brick wall blotched with paint or a girl's skipping rope. Thefull zoom used by Cavalier reveals-in much the same way as his presentation of the photographsas monochrome laser prints does-the inherent structure of his subjects and how, as "foreignobjects", they break with the original order. In this way, Cavalier emphasizes the various aspectsof urban planning, including among them the unintentional, the "mishap", which he characterizesas a quality that allows room for a subjective and personal use of the cities in which we live.Bertrand Cavalier, b. 1989 in France, is a multidisciplinary artist based in Brussels.
