From the author of "Earth From the Air" comes a moving and beautifully photographed new book. "Home", scheduled to release in conjunction with a film of the same name, is a globe-spanning exploration of the planet, complete with Yann Arthus-Bertrand's unforgettable images and an informative text by the team at Good Planet, a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting sustainable development. "Home" is a celebration of Earth's beauty and an impassioned call to protect it from destruction.

Alias Man Ray order quantity

Hardback
Author: Mason Klein
Published by: Yale University Press
In Stock: 1
Born Emmanuel Radnitzky, the artist known as Man Ray (1890-1976) revealed multiple artistic identities over the course of his career - New York Dedaist, Parisian Surrealist, international portraitist, and fashion photographer - and produced important works as a photographer, painter, filmmaker, writer, and maker of objects. "Alias Man Ray" considers how the artist's life and career were shaped by his turn-of-the-century American Jewish immigrant experience and his lifelong evasion of his past. As an exploration of the artist's deliberate cultural ambiguity, which allowed him to become the first American artist to be accepted by the Paris avant-garde, this book examines the dynamic connection between Man Ray's working-class origins, his assimilation, the evolution of his art, and his willful construction of his own artistic persona, as evidenced in a series of subtle, encrypted self-references throughout the artist's career.

Author: Annie Leibovitz
Published by: Yellow Jersey Press
In Stock: 1
The celebrated photographer Annie Leibovitz, author of the New York Times bestselling book A Photographer's Life, provides the stories, and technical description, of how some of her most famous images came to be.

Starting in 1974, with her coverage of Nixon's resignation, and culminating with her controversial portraits of Queen Elizabeth II early in 2007, Leibovitz explains what professional photographers do and how they do it. The photographer in this instance is the most highly paid and prolific person in the business. Approximately 90 images are discussed in detail -- the circumstances under which they were taken, with specific technical information (what camera, what settings, what lighting, where the images appeared). The Rolling Stones' tour in 1975, the famous nude session with John Lennon and Yoko Ono hours before Lennon was killed, the American Express and Gap campaigns, Whoopi Goldberg in a bathtub of milk, Demi ... more

Author: Ansel Adams
Published by: Little, Brown and Company

Adams began to photograph in colour in the mid-1930s. He did significant personal or 'creative' photography in colour and his distinctive visualisation of a scene and technical mastery is immediately evident in these photographs. Overall, he made nearly 3,500 colour images, but only a small fraction have ever been published. Adams thought seriously about publishing his colour images but the task was not accomplished during his lifetime. The Ansel Adams Publishing Rights Trust - with advice and counsel from John Szarkowski, former Director of Photography at New York's Museum of Modern Art; David Travis, Curator of Photographs at the Art Institute of Chicago and James Enyeart, former Director of the International Museum of Photography at George Eastman House--asked the distinguished master photographer Harry Callahan to select the best of Adams' colour work for publication in this book.

Author: Harvey Benge with Gerry Badger
Published by: Godwit
In Stock: 1
While looking through his contact sheets in 2007 Auckland photographer Harvey Benge noticed that one of his pictures reminded him of a Friedlander, another of an Atget, yet others of a Tillmans, a Baldessari and Adams ! Picking them out he decided to make what leading UK photography critic Gerry Badger describes in his opening essay as an 'anthology' of contemporary photography featuring some of its biggest names. The result is a sharply curated and perfectly formed collection of intriguing, beguiling and seductive images, sure to delight the photography aficionado and newcomer alike. 'Of course they are all genuine original Benges. And it is important that they are all good pictures, not mere pastiches of the "originals" of which they gently but insistently remind one.'

Paperback
Author: Glenn O'Brien
Published by: Yale University Press

This striking collection of photographs features nearly every important figure in the world of rock & roll, from Elvis to Eric Clapton, The Beatles to Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix to John Coltrane. Many of the nearly one hundred images have rarely been published, and all reveal fascinating glimpses of celebrities off stage, away from the glare of the spotlights. Shot from the mid-fifties to the mid-nineties, the portraits often have a spontaneous, informal, and everyday feel, and most record their subjects before they had become immensely famous - and well practised in posing for photographs. The more than fifty photographers who contribute to the volume are among the most talented in their field, including Lee Friedlander, Lynn Goldsmith, Bob Gruen, Mick Rock, and many more.Three original essays address topics suggested by the photographs. The authors discuss the coded nature of celebrity portraiture, the 1970s music scene in New York ... more

Earth On Fire: How volcanoes shape our planet order quantity

NZ$ 90.00 each
Hardback
Author: Bernhard Edmaier
Published by: Phaidon Press Ltd

Every time a volcanic eruption hits the headlines, we are reminded of the fact that we live on a ball of fire, with only a thin layer of rock separating us from the furnace deep inside our planet. Volcanoes serve as the earth's vents, opening up when the pressure of magma trying to rise to the surface from the depths of the planet gets too strong. But lava-spewing mountains aren't the only evidence of the heat and activity inside the earth: there are also geothermal areas with hot springs and bubbling mud pools, steaming acid lakes in often perfectly circular craters, as well as encrustations of bright yellow sulphur crystals and multi-coloured landscapes that owe their many hues to a wide variety of minerals. Huge cracks in the earth, many kilometres long, are also the result of volcanic activity, as are the vast mountain ranges that have formed over millions of years on the bottom of the ocean, where 80 per cent of magma emerges.

With Developing Vision and Style and Working the Light, Argentum have established a successful series of Masterclasses that explain the principles of creative photography. This new title covers all kinds of location photography and deals with two of the most fundamental questions of all - 'What should I photograph?' and 'How should I tackle it?' These may seem obvious questions but many photographers, no matter how experienced, can suffer the photographic equivalent of writer's block. They either lack the inspiration for a subject or are unable to see how to capture their chosen subject successfully. In this book Clive Minnitt and Phil Malpas offer clear and practical advice on the steps photographers can take to release their creativity and find and take a successful image. They tackle a wide range of themes including photographic styles, sources of inspiration, seeing versus looking, simplifying photographs and experimentation. ... more

Published by: Hachette Livre New Zealand

'Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live.' Inspired by the 1950s landmark photographic exhibition 'The Family of Man', M.I.L.K. began as an epic global search to develop a collection of extraordinary and geographically diverse images portraying humanity's 'Moments of Intimacy, Laughter and Kinship' (M.I.L.K.). This search took the form of a global photographic competition in 1999. Ten years after the original M.I.L.K. competition comes a brand new collection - Friendship, Family, Love & Laughter. One hundred and fifty extraordinary images from around the world, chosen by Elliott Erwitt, continue to celebrate our moments of intimacy, laughter and kinship. The images here are effusive, poignant and far-reaching, yet, ultimately, incredibly intimate. Their extraordinary power comes, ironically, from their very ordinariness. They speak a common language punctuated by casual gesture, exquisite tenderness and natural ... more

A man of many talents, Lewis Carroll (1832-1898), the pen name of Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, was a distinguished Professor of Mathematics at Christ Church College, Oxford and a successful author of children's books. Long before he published the famous "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" story, Carroll was a dedicated and prolific photographer, creating approximately 3,000 images during his twenty-five years of photographic activity. He is mostly remembered for his exceptional photographs of children, which include portraits of Alice Liddell, the inspiration behind his classic book. Carroll also used to compile his photographs into albums and send them to major cultural figures in Victorian society in the hope that they might want similar portraits of themselves or their children.His photographs thus include sitters such as the family of the Pre-Raphaelite painter and poet Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais and Alfred Lord ... more
