Astrofotografering er en helt særlig disciplin, der kræver viden, tålmodighed og ikke mindst en masse af teknisk snilde. 'Himlen set fra Jorden' samler de bedste af astrofotograf Jakob Arthur Andersens fotografier og viser os, hvor utroligt og endeløst fascinerende universet er.Fotografierne er taget af den mørke nattehimmel over os, men de viser os alt det, der ikke kan ses med det blotte øje. 'Himlen set fra Jorden' præsenterer detaljerede fotografier af månen, solen, mælkevejen, stjernetåger og fjerne galakser og lader læseren drømme sig væk til de fjerneste afkroge af universet.Bogen indledes af et essay af astrofysiker og stjerneforsker professor Anja C. Andersen, der også har skrevet bogens tematekster, der gør os klogere på, hvad det er vi ser på fotografierne.
For the press tour following the record-breaking release of Greta Gerwig's award-winning, acclaimed Barbie movie, producer and star Margot Robbie and her stylist Andrew Mukamal immersed themselves in some of Barbie's most iconic outfits and curated vintage pieces, then approached designers, from Giorgio Armani to Donatella Versace, to create looks inspired by the doll-size originals. Many of these looks were not seen as the official Barbie press tour was cut short--so Margot and Andrew worked with renowned fashion photographer Craig McDean to shoot her in the looks exactly as they were curated: Schiaparelli in Los Angeles, Vivienne Westwood in London, vintage Chanel with matching Steamline luggge at the airport, and beyond..

Ob vertäfelte Klosterbibliothek, Büchersaal einer altehrwürdigen Universität, berühmte Privatbibliothek oder die private Hausbibliothek, die die eigene Biografie abbildet - Büchersammlungen und Bibliotheken sind Wohlfühlorte, Oasen der Stille und zugleich überbordend vor Ideen, Möglichkeiten, Historien, alternativen Lebenswelten und unentdeckten Dingen. Sie bieten konzentrierter Arbeit, moderner Geisteswissenschaft und analytischem Denken Raum und sind doch auch Orte der Kontemplation, des Träumens und des Erinnerns.Auf dieser Fotoexpedition besucht Massimo Listri einige der ältesten und schönsten Bibliotheken der Welt, um deren architektonische, historische und fantasievolle Wunder zu enthüllen. Durch große Holztüren, über Wendeltreppen und entlang exquisiter, mit Regalen ausgestatteter Korridore führt er uns durch herausragende private, öffentliche, Bildungs- und Klosterbibliotheken, die bis ins Jahr 766 zurückreichen. Diese Institutionen aus dem Mittelalter, dem Klassizismus, dem Barock, dem Rokoko und dem 19. Jahrhundert beherbergen einige der wertvollsten Aufzeichnungen menschlichen Denkens und Handelns, die in Manuskripten, Bänden, Papyrusrollen und Inkunabeln niedergeschrieben und gedruckt sind. In jeder dieser Bibliotheken fangen Listris aussagekräftige Bilder die einzigartige Atmosphäre der Bibliothek ebenso ein wie die wertvollsten Bestände und Gestaltungsdetails.Zu den vorgestellten Bibliotheken gehören die päpstlichen Sammlungen der Vatikanischen Apostolischen Bibliothek und die Trinity College Library in Dublin, in der das Book of Kells und das Book of Durrow aufbewahrt werden. Die sorgfältigen Beschreibungen, die jede vorgestellte Bibliothek begleiten, informieren nicht nur über die erstaunlichen Bestände der Bibliotheken - aus denen einige Highlights abgebildet sind -, sondern auch über ihre oft bewegte, turbulente oder kontroverse Vergangenheit. So zum Beispiel das Franziskanerkloster in Lima, Peru, mit seiner Fülle an archivierten Inquisitionsdokumenten.Nach unserem XXL-Bestseller erscheint jetzt diese kompaktere Ausgabe: ein Augenschmaus für Bücherfreunde, eine Ode an das Lesen und die Schriftkultur und eine kulturhistorische Wallfahrt an die Stätten, die Archiv und Arche unserer Geschichte sind.

"With pieces drawn from the extensive personal collection of Pharrell Williams, this is a stunning and unprecedented exploration of the "bling" in hip-hop culture and fashion. Few recording artists have had a greater hand in incorporating the culture of hip-hop into contemporary luxury than Pharrell Williams. Collaborating with Louis Vuitton nearly two decades ago, Pharrell was the first to have his designs integrated into the haute joaillerie of the great maisons. His innovative team-ups continue through to the present day, most memorably with Tiffany and Chanel, and the watchmaker Richard Mille. The most extravagant of these chains, rings, and pendants--crafted in precious metals and studded with gems--are as much a part of Pharrell's musical performance as they are of his personal style. His designs, which include one-off pieces such as solid-gold cases for mobile phones and handheld game consoles, have been legendary for featuring iconography of Pharrell's own brands, Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream. This book was originally published with two different colored covers. Customers will be shipped either of the colors at random. Featured in the book are over 100 pieces, many of which he created in tandem with some of the most recognizable designers in the industry--such as Jacob & Co, Yoon & Verbal, and Lorraine Schwartz. With frequent collaborators such as NIGOª and Tyler the Creator, Pharrell discusses his role in the evolution of hip-hop jewelry, the processes involved in the creation of his one-of-a-kind custom pieces, and the state of connoisseurship in a growing market for the most extravagant of hip-hop collectibles" --
Louis Vuitton, the global luxury fashion house, and world-famous artist Yayoi Kusama partner again, and in the storied history of the brand s epic collaborations with artists, this is the most ambitious to date.

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.
"Nature is capable of extraordinary phenomena. Standing in awe of those phenomena, we experience a feeling of connection to others, to wildlife, or to the cosmos. For ... Alan Lightman, just as remarkable is that all of what we see around us--from soap bubbles and scarlet ibses to shooting stars--are made out of the same material stuff, and obey the same rules and laws. This is what Lightman calls 'spiritual materialism, ' the belief that we can embrace spiritual experiences without letting go of our scientific worldview. Pairing 36 ... full-color photos evoking some of nature's most awe-inspiring phenomena with accessible, lyrical essays, [this book] explores the ... science underlying the natural world"--
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. In Doubleday erforscht er die archäologische Dimension der Fotografie, indem er seine eigenen Aufnahmen passgenau über historische Ansichten von Berliner Bauten des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts legt. Er schafft einen Zeitsprung von der Vergangenheit in die Gegenwart: Flaneure des 19. Jahrhunderts treffen am Alexanderplatz auf Reisende von heute, unter Rekonstruktionen werden Ruinen sichtbar und an die Stelle des Schlosses Monbijou tritt - fast wie durch Zauberhand - ein Park. MICHAEL WESELY (*1963) ist gefeierter Meister der Langzeitbelichtung. Sein präziser, dem jeweiligen Gegenstand entsprechender Einsatz dieser fotografischen Technik machte ihn weltbekannt. Seine einzigartige Ästhetik ist in zahlreichen internationalen Ausstellungen und Sammlungen vertreten. Er lebt und arbeitet in Berlin.
