Wild World Nature Through an Autistic Eye Alfie Bowen, foreword by Chris Packham Alfie Bowen is an exceptionally talented young autistic photographer and wildlife activist. His latest project offers a glimpse into the private lives of numerous wild animals from across the globe and reveals the highs and lows of living as an autistic environmental campaigner. Bowen’s photographs are truly breath-taking. Hours are invested into every piece to ensure the results are exactly as Bowen envisioned, and Bowen conducts in-depth research on every animal he captures, believing it is of the utmost importance to understand his subjects. In this book, Bowen discusses overcoming the limitations of technology and how autism has given him the obsession needed to persevere in often cold, lonely and difficult circumstances. From Bowen’s relation of his struggle to capture the perfect picture of a cheetah, to his majestic portraits of some of the most beloved animals on the planet, this book captures the powerful sensory experience Bowen enjoys whenever he immerses himself in nature. Featured animals include: lions, cheetahs, leopards, tigers, snow leopards, Geoffrey’s cats, red pandas, chimpanzees, monkeys and colobuses, lemurs, elephants, rhinos, giraffes, zebras, deer, flamingos, eagles and other birds, and koi.

A stunning compilation of wildlife photography from autistic environmental campaigner Alfie Bowen, offering evocative, beautiful pictures of animals, from lions to lemurs, flamingos and koi fish.

Nirvana Never Mind the Photos Kirk Weddle When lists are made and articles are written about rock and roll’s greatest album covers there’s a consistent name at the top: Nevermind by Nirvana; Nirvana’s breakthrough 1991 record that cemented the band’s legacy into legend. The image of the baby floating towards a dollar bill on a fish-hook is instantly recognisable as iconic. Now – for the first time in book form – the photographer behind the lens shares his memories from that day, along with his nearly 140 outtakes, including promo shots of the band. The book showcases Kirk Weddle’s extraordinary shots, examining just how difficult photographing an underwater baby turned out to be, nevertheless photographing an underwater band.

Boudoir Ifa Brand Ifa Brand never felt satisfied as a model. The dissatisfaction stemmed from not being able to represent her true identity: ‘I fell “between styles”: alternative but not alternative enough; fetish but not in a typical sense. I also disliked photographers telling me how I should look, pose, behave; telling me no to red lips, no to precious lingerie and all the things I loved.’ In 2017, she decided to go her own way. She saw photography as an opportunity to be her own creative director, to follow her own storylines, and to explore her own vision of sensuality, eroticism and fetish. Hers is a quest for personal empowerment through the art of self-portraiture.

High Heels - Frank Rispoli Frank Rispoli and Erick Bradshaw Hughes As a young man, living in Manhattan in the 1970s and ‘80s, Frank Rispoli was drawn to the New Wave and Punk club scenes. Recognising the inherent performance of sexuality and desire in both fashion and club culture, he documented the intertwining of the two. Always with a camera strapped around his neck, he frequented Danceteria, Tier 3, Max’s Kansas City, Studio 54 and many other clubs in Soho, Chelsea, the Lower East Side, and Midtown. Rispoli asked female clubgoers, bar patrons, singers, and band members if he could photograph their shoes, utilising the staged sets, props, and bathrooms of the clubs, and the taxis, sidewalks, and rooftops of the city, as his backdrops. A selection of these photographs forms the basis of his first book – High Heels.

London – Being in the Library Edited by Daniela Keiser; Interview with David Adjaye Daniela Keiser ranks among the most renowned contemporary artists in Switzerland. In 2017 she was awarded the Prix Meret Oppenheim as well as a studio grant from Landis & Gyr Stiftung that enabled her to embark on an extended stay in London’s East End. There she discovered the Idea Store, the public library on Whitechapel Road built by British architect David Adjaye in 2001-05. Upon its opening to the public, this institution quickly became a meeting place for a broad spectrum of society including for socially disadvantaged people. The goal of the Idea Stores – eight of them have so far been opened in various London boroughs – is to enhance formerly neglected neighbourhoods and offer a low-threshold source of education and information.

New York Stilled Life; Portrait of a City in Lockdown Gregory Peterson Mid-March 2020: native New Yorker Gregory Peterson is on an early evening walk through the city, suddenly shut down by the coronavirus pandemic. Manhattan’s grand public spaces are bare. The sounds of skates on ice and bustle of tourists and workers at Rockefeller Center are absent. Not a soul on Easter Sunday at the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine. Starkly silent, the city is stilled, as no one had ever seen it before. Travelling on foot and by bike to avoid public transportation, Peterson took more than 400 photographs of over 200 locations in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens through the spring and summer of 2020. Without people, these photos reveal the city’s primeval soul. We see New York with new eyes. 9781954081260 ORO Editions 280 x 229mm. 200pp. November 2021 £37.00, Hardback

Heroes Women in Snowboarding Jérôme Tanon Heroes: Women in Snowboarding is the product of two years’ work by photographer Jérôme Tanon, following some of the most dedicated female snowboarders around the world. It is a declaration of love, highlighting the culture, passion and dedication of female snowboarders. Though women’s snowboarding has developed radically over the last decade, few photographs celebrate the champions of the sport. Over two winter seasons, Tanon travelled the world to meet several snowboarders, hear their stories and photograph them in the streets, the parks and the back-country. The sheer passion they put into their sport was instantly obvious. Shared here are personal stories and artworks by the snowboarders themselves.

Masterworks of Modern Photography 1900-1940 The Thomas Walther Collection at The Museum of Modern Art, New York Edited by Silvana Editoriale The extraordinary fecundity of the photographic medium between the first and second world wars can be persuasively attributed to the dynamic circulation of people, ideas, images, and objects that were hallmarks of that era in Europe and the United States, resulting in a creative peak both in the history of photography and in the field of arts and letters. Few, if any, collections of photography capture the imaginative spirit of this moment as convincingly as the Thomas Walther Collection at The Museum of Modern Art. This volume represents an important chapter in the rich and complex lives of these works, providing ample evidence of the brilliance of the photographers practicing on both sides of the Atlantic in the interwar period. 9788836648061 Silvana 305 x 240mm. 208pp., 245 col.

Baobab Beth Moon The baobabs of Madagascar and southern Africa are among the world’s natural wonders: they can live more than 2,500 years, and their massive, water-storing trunks can reach a diameter of more than 35 feet. Baobabs also play an important role in human communities, serving as a renewable source of food, fibre, and fuel, as well as a focus of spiritual life. But now, suddenly, the largest baobabs are dying off, literally collapsing under their own weight. Scientists believe these ancient giants are being dehydrated by drought and higher temperatures, likely the result of climate change. Photographer Beth Moon heard of the rapid disappearance of these trees and was driven to make a new photographic pilgrimage to bear witness to this environmental catastrophe and document the baobabs that still survive. In this volume, Moon presents 50 breath taking new duotone tree portraits, primarily of the baobabs of Madagascar and Senegal. She also recounts her eventful journey to visit these fantastic trees in a moving diaristic text studded with colour travel photos. Baobab is not only a compelling photo book and travel narrative, but also a timely ecological warning.

A spectacular oversize photo book by Beth Moon celebrating Africa’s most majestic trees – before they disappear.

Faces of Africa Mario Marino ”I try to read people’s lives,” says photographer Mario Marino. In this new photo book, the Austrian-born camera artist presents over 220 colour and black-and-white photographs from some of the most remote areas of Ethiopia, Tanzania, Sudan, and Kenya. Stunning landscapes combine with powerful portraiture, capturing in particular remote communities whose heritage and ways of life are threatened by the combined forces of tourism, technology, and globalisation. With his subjects illuminated by the sunlight alone, particular attention is given to traditional markers upon the body: face paint, hair styles, and jewellery. Beyond simple reportage or documentation, Faces of Africa strives to create a timeless portrait that speaks to the deep geographical and cultural roots of each individual.

21 grams Celine Yasemin Celine Yasemin Rolle The human soul is said to weigh 21 grams. But what is the soul, and what makes us human? How and, most importantly, who defines us and our (gender) identity, our way of loving and living? Is it society? Or rather we ourselves? In her book, the photographer Celine Yasemin addresses these fundamental questions. She has turned her lens on friends and fleeting acquaintances, people from various cultural and social backgrounds who do not identify with the norm, who live a self-determined life with different experiences, preferences, and approaches to life, who comply neither with traditional roles nor relationship models.

Fire Prix Pictet Fire is the fourth element. It destroys and creates something new. In its heat, colours, and magnitude, it provides a terrifying spectacle as much as an existential threat. Today, it speaks as much to the fragility of human structures as to the damage wrought on nature: the fire at Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, forest fires from the Amazon to Australia, and infernos in California so colossal that the sky turned red. Reason enough for the Prix Pictet, the world’s leading award for photography and sustainability, to dedicate this year’s photo book to the many facets of fire. Selected by photography experts from around the world, this impressive publication features over 100 images from the Prix Pictet shortlist and beyond.

Deity’s Likeness Olga Michi Art, war, carnival or cult – masks have two sides: They conceal and hide, and at the same time create new personalities, strange and captivating at once. So, too, do masks reveal world views of time and place: cult masks from Africa, medieval knight helmets, fantasy masks of famous film heroes like Darth Vader, or gas masks and VR glasses as modern functional objects. In this new photo book, Russian photographer Olga Michi traces our millennia-old fascination with masks. Her expressive pictures place the masks centre-stage, creating a new, surrealist aesthetic. With fascinating texts on each mask’s cultural-historical significance, this highquality photo book delights, informs, and ignites the imagination.

Crafting Wood Structure and Expression Carmen Rist-Stadelmann, Machiel Spaan, and Urs Meister Wood has a centuries-long tradition as well as huge potential for future use as a highly versatile building material. Crafting Wood: Structure and Expression presents newly gained knowledge on timber construction and on timber joints in particular. This book – lavishly illustrated with plans, sketches, and photographs – emerged from an international educational cooperation of the University of Liechtenstein in Vaduz, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology NTNU in Trondheim, and the Academy of Architecture in Amsterdam. The program looked at a vast range of timber joints from different theoretical and practical perspectives. Students conceived and made by hand new joints that were then applied in prototypes for entire structures, also designed as part of the course, at a scale of 1:5.

Architects on Dwelling Edited by Christopher Platt While most books on architecture focus on the architectural outcome itself, Architects on Dwelling takes a close look at how that outcome is created. To design any kind of dwelling, architects draw on both their reservoir of ideas as well as their own experiences as fellow inhabitants of such structures. This book explores how architects design the places we inhabit and how those places in turn inform the manner in which we live, in ways beyond lifestyle and personal taste. Through contributions by Stephen Hoey, Henry McKeown & Ian Alexander, James Mitchell, Stacey Philips, Christopher Platt, Adrian Stewart, and Miranda Webster – most of whom are Scotland-based practitioners as well as teachers in The Glasgow School of Art – it reveals the unique values and qualities that inform their design processes.

Architecture in Mexico, 1900-2010 The Construction of Modernity. Works, Design, Art, and Thought Fernanda Canales This book deals with the multiplicity of architectures that have taken place in Mexico during the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st. In accordance with the idea of the effective history of the French philosopher Michel Foucault, in which knowledge, like history, does not cover absolute truths but fragments, a reading of the different themes that make up the architectural production is presented. Based on this approach, an understanding is sought beyond the built forms and close to the ideas that generate them. The two volumes are chronologically divided in six different time periods to reflect the work of 160 architects throughout different architectural movements.

Jock Peters, Architecture and Design The Varieties of Modernism Christopher Long Scholar and historian Christopher Long turns his attention to the littleknown German-born architect and designer Jock Peters (1889–1934). Long’s engaging study introduces us to the modernist’s architectural work in Hamburg, Germany before World War I, and also to Peters’ work created after he immigrated to America in 1922. Most notable are his interiors for the once-famous Hollander department store in New York City and for Bullock’s Wilshire in Los Angeles. Both projects brought him international recognition. Aside from his architectural work, Peters designed film sets for Famous LaskyPlayers (later Paramount Pictures), working in the famed art department of Hans Dreier. Despite his early death, Peters managed to leave his mark on the modernist landscape in Southern California at a time when the new style was just emerging.

Light Lines The Architectural Photographs of Hélène Binet Juhani Pallasmaa, Vicky Richardson The Franco-Swiss photographer Hélène Binet (b. 1959) is renowned for making images that express an intimate experience of architecture. Binet works only with film and hand prints much of her own work. Her photographs are both a representation and a discovery of her subjects, all of them buildings that break the mould, pushing daringly at the boundaries of their time. In this selection of some ninety of her photographs – ranging from the baroque London churches of Nicholas Hawksmoor and the Jantar Mantar Observatory in Jaipur through to buildings of Le Corbusier, Peter Zumthor, John Hejduk, Daniel Libeskind and Zaha Hadid – her work is revealed in all its subtlety and quiet sensitivity.

Le Corbusier – Ronchamp Photographs by Siegrun Appelt Siegrun Appelt, Claudia Kromrei, Otto Kapfinger Le Corbusier‘s chapel Notre-Dame-du-Haut in Ronchamp is arguably the most famous modern religious building and a UNESCO world heritage site. Austrian artist Siegrun Appelt took an entirely new approach to look at the iconic structure, distinct from all her famous predecessors. Appelt focuses with utter concentration on details, creating compositions of highest sensitivity and precision. Her images highlight the place’s spatial structure and lines, Le Corbusier’s ingenious direction of light, as well as surfaces and passages. This publication includes a dialogue between Claudia Kromrei and Otto Kapfinger, in which they investigate the potential of photography to show Le Corbusier’s means of expression and discuss the visualisation and perception of material and immaterial elements of this icon of 20th-century architecture.

MAJOR EXHIBITION

One of the greatest portrait artists of the 20th century, Alice Neel’s vibrant, expressionistic paintings revealed a breath-taking depth of emotion within her subjects. From works exploring loss and grief, to communist political art, Neel’s work pushed boundaries of social justice throughout the 1900s. Latin American and Puerto Rican immigrants, African-American writers excluded from the intellectual elite, single mothers struggling to raise their children, homosexual couples – all were presented with equal candidness by Neel’s brush. Her unflinching approach to the female body took a ground-breaking step towards reclaiming the nude from the male gaze, and the activism inherent to her art resonates with viewers to this day. This book highlights Neel’s political and social commitment to her art, as a figurative painter at odds with the artistic styles of the avant-gardes of her time. Structured in two thematic parts – social injustice and gender inequality – this retrospective includes some 60 paintings and drawings as well as numerous documents. Following the artist from her first works in the 1920s to her final evocative self-portrait, made shortly before her death, this is the defining treatise on Alice Neel.

Accompanying a major exhibition at the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, this book explores the life and work of renowned feminist artist Alice Neel, 1900-1984.

Hicks expands the languages of sculpture, painting, and the environment by creating new forms and dimensions. Inspired by the ideas of the Wiener Werkstätte and the Bauhaus, she dissolves the boundaries of medium and material and employs historical techniques of knotting and weaving as contemporary instruments to initiate intercultural dialogue and to create an awareness of the small deviants in grid pattern that make life interesting. With the publication Thread Trees River, the artist sketches the interplay of nature, textiles, architecture, and space through works from the entire spectrum of her art.

Callum Innes – a pure land Callum Innes, Thomas A Clarke Scottish painter Callum Innes is one of the few artists working in abstraction to include watercolour as a major part of his practice. As with many painters, his explorations in this medium form a parallel body of work, an activity taken on as a kind of ‘break’ from his other painting, with different circumstances, conditions and intentions. Innes has been making watercolours for more than 25 years. He began to explore the medium when he was asked to do a show at the Kunsthaus, in Zurich. “This new body of 50 watercolours feels stronger and more luminous than previous ones. I have kept them sequential in the book, to show how each work informs the next and so on.” – Callum Innes

Milton Avery Edith Devaney, Erin Monroe, Marla Price Born into a working-class family in Connecticut, Milton Avery (1885-1965) left school at 16 to work in a factory. He attended evening school for fifteen years before moving to New York in the 1920s to pursue a career as a painter. Although he never identified with a particular movement, Avery was a sociable member of the New York art scene. He became a figure of considerable influence for a younger generation of American artists, including Mark Rothko, Adolph Gottlieb and Barnett Newman. Edith Devaney introduces Avery and his work, while Erin Monroe looks at Avery’s early years in Hartford, and Marla Price examines Matisse’s influence upon his art. A conversation by Waqas Wajahat with the artist’s daughter March Avery Cavanaugh and an illustrated chronology by Isabella Boorman complete the book.

The eldest son of a wealthy mill owner, he entered the Royal Academy Schools in 1800 at the age of 24, and thereafter committed himself to painting nature out of doors. His ‘six-footers’, such as The Hay Wain and The Leaping Horse, were designed to promote landscape as a subject and to stand out in the Academy’s Annual Exhibition. Despite this, he sold few paintings in his lifetime and was elected a Royal Academician late in his career. With texts by leading authorities on the artist, this handsome book looks at the freedom of Constable’s late works and records his enormous contribution to the English landscape tradition.

Porsche 550 Spyder Stefan Bogner, Glen Smale The 550 Spyder is one of the most exclusive Porsche models of all times and is considered a legendary part of German automobile history. In 1953 Porsche began to build cars especially designed for motorsports, starting with the 1500 RS Spyder, as it was officially called at the time. The sporting successes of the Porsche 550 Spyder are known to all. Until 1957 only around 100 Spyders were built, which makes the car one of the most expensive Porsches today. In this beautiful, slip cased, book, Stefan Bogner captures the classic and pure form of the Spyder and presents some of the rare original models.

The Jaguar Book René Staud

Ever heard of the Volkhart Sagitta? L’OEuf électrique, or the Stanley Steamer? If not, you are in for a beautiful surprise, 50 times over!

Right on time for the 60th anniversary of the E-Type, this new Jaguar photo book from automobile photographer René Staud captures iconic Jaguar designs: the E-Type or XK 140, the SS90 from the 1930s, or Jaguar’s first electric car – the I-Pace. The man who elevated automobile photography to art, Staud stages these luxurious sports cars and racing icons in 250 photos, supplemented by texts from Jürgen Lewandowski.

Often times the cars in this richly illustrated book were lost because the manufacturer ceased to exist, or because they were found on the bottom of Lake Maggiore after 75 years, like the Bugatti Brescia. Among the 50 beauties there are one-offs, concepts, trendsetters, and failures as well as cars of the rich and famous, from Marilyn Monroe to Clark Gable.

Investing in Wristwatches: Rolex Mara Cappelletti, Osvaldo Patrizzi Why do we collect? For some, it is a pursuit of pure passion – those who appreciate the wristwatch as an artform: the intricacy of its mechanics, the finesse of its form. Yet for others, collecting is an investment, and a watch’s value is of as much importance as its appearance. Investing in Wristwatches: Rolex offers detailed insights into the world of authenticating and pricing high-value wristwatches. This publication includes the vast majority of key Rolex models, along with their relevant auction results. These wristwatches excel for a diverse range of reasons, including technical excellence, auction records, design and anecdotal history. A description of each watch is accompanied by its picture, reference and sales values (rights included). A comparative analysis of auction results, compiled through close collaboration with the Sotheby’s auction house, shows, by brand and timepiece, the evolution of prices over time, leading from the Eighties up to the present day. A system to calculate the currency exchange rate at the time of auction sales will also be included in this vital work of reference.

An important new reference for all Rolex lovers and collectors, written by experts and introduced by the Chairman of Sotheby’s International Watch Division.

To achieve these effects, the production of Jun ware was complex and ingenious, relying on novel techniques. This book gathers illustrations and descriptions of some of the finest Jun wares in private and public collections around the world.

India: A Story Through 100 Objects Vidya Dehejia We are constantly surrounded by objects, by ‘things’ that channel and dictate our everyday life, ‘things’ that we take for granted. These objects have a story to tell that reflects our values and aspirations, our achievements and dreams, and reveal more about us than we realise! This book focuses on 100 objects to tell a story of India. The stories that some objects tell will be new to readers; at other times, the objects themselves may be familiar but the story they tell may not be obvious.

Rebel Stylist Caroline Baker - The Woman Who Invented Street Fashion Iain R. Webb Caroline Baker is the antidote to high fashion. As the legendary fashion editor of Nova magazine in the 1960s, her style was quite literally cutting-edge (she famously chopped up clothes to achieve her desired looks). She is credited with challenging the status quo of the industry and society at large, and introducing street fashion to the mass market. Stylist-of-choice for the most dynamic female designers on the scene – Katharine Hamnett and Vivienne Westwood – Caroline has continued her trajectory as a fashion provocateur. Her work has appeared on the pages of Vogue, Tatler and Cosmopolitan as well as The Face and i-D – and unsurprisingly, a new generation of stylesetters is now looking to Baker’s back catalogue for inspiration. This book offers an in-depth overview of Baker’s work, expertly curated and considered by Iain R. Webb. It is divided into sections that highlight specific recurring themes and tropes – such as Punk Rock, DIY, Utility and Sportswear. These ideas have defined Baker’s evolving sartorial vocabulary over six decades, and set a template for street fashion that endures to this day.

“I have always been inspired by what was happening on the street – and anyway, I couldn’t afford the high fashion price tags.” – Caroline Baker

Emotion Fashion in Transition Kaat Debo, Alistair O’Neill, Caroline Evans In this timely book, three noted fashion historians examine the global transformations in the fashion industry today, and identify the challenges of the future. Since the dawn of designer fashion at the beginning of the 20th century, the role and position of the designer has drastically changed. Emotion: Fashion in Transition addresses how the interpretation of creativity, authorship, craft, and innovation have evolved in this new context, and asks what role designers play in a globalised and digitised fashion world.

Free A Life in Images and Words Sergei Polunin, foreword by Dame Helen Mirren and Albert Watson, OBE The early life path of Ukraine-born Sergei Polunin was akin to a dancer’s fairy-tale. A precocious talent. Ballet training in Kiev. Admission to the Royal Ballet School in London at 13. First solo performance at the Royal Ballet at 19. At 20, promotion to the youngest ever principal. Then, at 21, a sudden rupture took place: the superstar Polunin moved on. What could have been the end of an incredible career became another beginning. The dancer met new mentors, went to Russia followed by other countries, conquered fresh audiences and new art forms. Today he is known not only as a dancer and creator of his own productions, but also as an actor and artist. In this autobiographical book, Polunin presents a stunning selection of photographs from his life and work, but also carries his readers behind the scenes, through his own unique voice sharing the emotional highs and lows of his journey. Along the way, he recounts why he quit alcohol and drugs, why he once took steroids, and the time he laughed so hard on stage that he forgot the dance steps.

An intimate encounter with the enfant terrible of ballet, with a comprehensive selection of photos from Polunin’s life on and off stage.

111 Dark Places in England That You Shouldn’t Miss Philip R. Stone

111 Places in Yorkshire That You Shouldn’t Miss Ed Glinert

111 Places in Birmingham That You Shouldn’t Miss Ben Waddington

This book explores infamous acts as well as obscure dark tourism sites lost to memory. Each site is challenged by its history and its political discourse and questions are raised as to how we remember our tragic past. Each site also has ethical issues that need to be addressed and confronted and visiting these sites are often fraught with moral dilemmas.

They call Yorkshire God’s own country. This is because England’s biggest county is also England’s most epic and most historically exciting. Many of the most interesting episodes in English history have happened here: the Wars of the Roses, the English Civil War, the birth of the industrial revolution, the rise of the Labour movement. But when people think of Yorkshire they also think of the unusual and the unsung: Bettys delightful tea rooms, cricket at Scarborough, the windswept steps of Whitby Abbey, the steam railway of the Railway Children, Mother Shipton’s Cave, and racing at Doncaster and York.

Welcome to Birmingham, a super-diverse city with an ever-shifting identity. This is the quiet mediaeval market town that overnight became the centre of the industrial revolution. The city’s drive to successively reinvent itself as motor city, conference capital and shopping destination reflects that initial burst of energy.

111 Dark Places in England That You Shouldn’t Miss will help shine light on dark tourism and inherent complex issues associated with commemorating our dead. Dark tourism is politically vulnerable and ethically laden with moral commentary. This book attempts to be authoritative yet accessible in exploring sites of pain and shame.
