PDF, 183 страницы, 5.49 МБ

Jürgen Vollmer has lead the traditional peripatetic life of a photographer and this book contains images of the people he has photographed in different countries across the globe. What is different from the usual collection of travel portraits is that often his subjects have been famous actors and literary figures. The first part of the book, On Filmsets, consists of a series on two dozen American and a dozen French filmsets over the past four decades. The filmstars include among many others Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Sean Connery, Heath Ledger, Catherine Deneuve, Isabelle Huppert and Jeanne Moreau. The portraits of directors include among others Francis Ford Coppola, Tony Scott, Roman Polanski, Barbra Streisand and Alain Resnais. Prominently featured are photos of Rudolf Nureyev, taken in 1966 during the filming of a ballet film. The second part of the book, On Other Locations, are photographs taken between 1961 and 1996, of local people in different countries, among them Turks, Sicilians, Egyptians and Senegalese as well as portraits of a few famous people, like John Lennon in Hamburg and William Burroughs in New York.

Robert Capa
|
Thames and Hudson
|
Автор: Lacouture Jean
Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2010
|
DOC, 144 страницы, 1.00 МБ
|
Robert Capa (1913-1954) gave the world some of the most moving and memorable images of war ever taken, and redefined journalism for ever. Through his photographs we see the suffering, confusion, boredom and courage of the soldiers and civilians affected by the five wars that he covered. Yet he was more than a war photographer: Capa's portraits of politicians and artists are equally memorable. A participant, not an observer, Capa lived his life on the edge and died in action, killed by a landmine in Vietnam. 68 b&w photographs

«No one wants to be a prophet, if the job can be avoided. What you want to try to be is a psalmist.» Robert Adams Robert Adams began by photographing suburban landscapes along the edge of the Rocky Mountains. His goal was then, and remains, to acknowledge the disappearance of wilderness but also to discover a basis for affirmation. In the 1980s he went on to revisit semi-rural areas through which he had walked as a boy — landscapes no longer pristine but still notable for their quiet, space and light. The views in this book, none published before, record some of what he found compelling.»

Realism in 20th Century Painting
|
Thames and Hudson
|
Автор: Prendeville Brendan
Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2010
|
PDF, 240 страниц, 7.20 МБ
|
This comprehensive survey the history of realist painting and argues that realism has had a continuous yet restlessly changing place in American and European painting throughout the 20th century. Artists discussed include Eakins, Bellows and Homer, Vuillard, Bonnard, Schiele, Morandi, Hopper and Giacometti, through to Balthus, Lucian Freud, and David Hockney. The author provides the historical, artistic and critical contexts in which painting has taken a realist turn, from the Ashcan School to Soviet Social realism, from painting of the Existentialist era to the time of Photorealism, to recent developments. He argues that the western tradition of pictorial realism has in fact been renewed and modified through the diverse influences of modernism, political conflict and new visual technologies.

Paul Gauguin: Artist of Myth and Dream
|
Thames and Hudson
|
Автор: Eisenman Stephanie E.
Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2008
|
PDF, 440 страниц, 13.20 МБ
|
This is an exceptional monograph-catalogue revealing the innovative drive in Gauguin's work. This catalogue offers a unique opportunity to view Gauguin's entire artistic development from his early impressionist works to his final masterpieces painted on the Marquesas Islands where the artist went in search of an Arcadian kingdom of ecstasy, peace and art, far from the typical European struggle for money. In reality such a paradise on earth no longer existed, not even on the other side of the globe, however the wealth and complexity of life that he found before him there, inspired the creation of a series of works which are among the most vivid and durable in the history of painting.

Naked Architecture
|
Thames and Hudson
|
Автор: Mosco Valerio Paolo
Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2011
|
PDF, 192 страницы, 5.76 МБ
|
Naked Architecture Valerio Paolo Mosco: An account of one of the most interesting phenomena of contemporary architecture: the return to the structure and methods with which contemporary constructions are realized. Over the last ten years architecture would seem to have rediscovered engineering. Now that the Postmodern period, in which the structure of buildings was camouflaged by coverings of every kind, has passed, architecture today seems to have undressed, almost as though wishing to show how it is made (and to render this spectacular). On the other hand, the rediscovery in recent years of plastic form has brought about a closer relationship between architects and engineers. In the wake of the phenomenon that is the work of Santiago Calatrava, figures of engineer-architects have emerged such as Cecil Balmond, Sasaki and Guy Nordenson, who have been able to give a strongly engineering-oriented guise to ever more complex building sites. To this we must add the rise of new issues, such as that of environmental engineering, which has changed from being a specifically technical sphere to one of many other realms of knowledge, not least the aesthetic. If, therefore, there is a phenomenon today that is able to hold together the various expressions of contemporary architecture, it is precisely this return to the structure and methods with which it is realized.

PDF, 200 страниц, 6.00 МБ

This is the definitive catalogue on the first woman artist to be a glamour star.

She was possibly that periods most brilliant exponent. Driven by an iron will to achieve, Tamara not only cultivated her artistic talent, he also consciously built an image, that of an elegant and sophisticated woman, the extravagant protagonist of the European high life.

FilmCraft: Directing

Автор: Goodridge Mike
Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2012

PDF, 192 страницы, 5.76 МБ
|
Ultimately responsible for the creative content on screen, directors are the captains of the ship on every film. All actors and heads of department report to them. Some directors are also writers, employing unique styles of dialogue and characterisation; others, like Pedro Almodovar, create inimitable visual and tonal styles which mark their films out from the crowd. Unlike the other volumes in the series, the directing book covers all the disciplines of the film art, from development and writing, to working with actors, designers and cinematographers, to postproduction and distribution. Among the filmmakers giving glimpses of their processes in this volume will be US legend Clint Eastwood, Latin visonary Guillermo Del Toro as well as Park Chan-wook, Stephen Frears, Terry Gilliam, Susanne Bier, the Dardenne Brothers, Istvan Szabo, Amos Gitai and Paul Greengrass.

Monuments of the Incas
|
Thames and Hudson
|
Автор: Hemming John
Издательство: Thames&Hudson, 2010
|
PDF, 240 страниц, 7.20 МБ
|
The stone monuments of the Incas, set against the dramatic backdrop of the Andes, are among the most magnificent structures in the world. Originally published in 1982, Monuments of the Incas is the most comprehensive photographic and narrative study of the major sites of the Inca empire, including the famed city of Machu Picchu, the Inca town and sun temple of Ollantaytambo, the mighty temple-fortress of Sacsahuaman, and the steeply terraced ruins of Pisac. This classic book, long out of print, has now been rewritten to incorporate results from the latest archaeological excavations, discoveries about Inca masonry techniques, and updated interpretations of form and function. There are new chapters about Choquequirau, Vitcos, Chinchero, and the ruins along the famous Inca Trail. Edward Ranney's photographs convey the extraordinary accomplishments of the Inca masons-from sheer terrace walls and stairways to striking temple buildings and sculpted rock shrines-and the grandeur of their cities. John Hemming makes brilliant use of archaeological and documentary evidence to write a compelling account of each site and to offer insights and speculations on the enigmatic ruins.
