Dustin Pittman amassed an archive of 100,000 photographs chronicling the untamed corners of New York City's after-hours nightlife, from shadowy underground haunts to prestigious galleries and clubs. This "wish I was there" book unveils the vibrant pop culture scene of New York during the 1970s and '80s. Pittman was not just an observer but was an active participant in the places and events that shaped pop culture as we know it--the goings- on at Andy Warhol's Factory, the women's liberation movements of the 1970s, the VIP room at Studio 54, and the nascent punk scene at CBGB and The Mudd Club. Through Pittman's lens, readers are provided an intimate glimpse into the intersecting worlds of fashion and celebrity, music, art, and politics--from the glam rock underground and the golden age of disco to the ateliers of the world's most famous fashion designers such as Halston, Yves Saint Laurent, and Calvin Klein. Pittman was witness to such rising stars as Blondie, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop and the Stooges, The New York Dolls, and Roxy Music, as well as seminal cultural figures including Raquel Welch, Truman Capote, Diana Ross, Tina Chow, Brooke Shields, Jerry Hall, Divine, and Liza Minnelli--all caught in spontaneous, unguarded New York moments. A vast majority are previously unpublished images of some of the most iconic and revered figures of the late 20th century, accompanied by firsthand observations and remembrances by Pittman. The book features an introductory essay offering an objective view of Pittman's work and importance as a chronicle of the music, art, and fashion scenes.

Published as a collection for the first time, these arresting and poetic and images of Northern Ireland reveal a rarely examined facet of the oeuvre of a celebrated twentieth century war photographer. Akihiko Okamura became a renowned war photographer during the first years of the Vietnam war and later, as he documented wars in Biafra and the Middle East. In 1969, he moved from Southeast Asia to Dublin. From there, Okamura traveled frequently to Derry and other parts of Northern Ireland to document the country's "Troubles." This beautifully produced book brings together for the first time Okamura's Irish work, which was almost entirely unpublished before now. Presented in full page plates without text, Okamura's images are imbued with soft, muted colors that contrast with the violence of the situation in which they were conceived.Brimming with feelings of fear, dread, anticipation, and resignation, these images reveal Okamura's humanity and curiosity, his concern with day-to-day existence, and the absurdities, incongruities, and disruptions of life during wartime: women preparing afternoon tea outside bombed rowhouses; girls dressed in their Sunday best leaving flowers at a roadside shrine; a collection of empty milk bottles destined to become incendiary devices. Illuminating essays by renowned photographic historians place this astounding collection in context with Okamura's larger body of work and situate these images within the history of both the medium and the country.

Sebastião Salgados Fotobuch-Klassiker Arbeiter. Zur Archäologie des Industriezeitalters (Erstausgabe 1993) würdigt die traditionellen handwerklichen Arbeitsweisen, während zu Beginn des neuen Jahrtausends überall in der Welt Maschinen und Computer die Arbeit der Menschen übernehmen. Mit Bildern von beeindruckender Schönheit hat Salgado eine visuelle Elegie komponiert, mit der er jene Männer und Frauen ehrt, die sich ihren unbeugsamen Geist und ihre Würde selbst unter härtesten Arbeitsbedingungen bewahren. Mehr als bei jedem anderen lebenden Fotografen sind bei Sebastião Salgado die Bilder von den Vergessenen, den Elenden und den Ausgegrenzten der Welt eine Hommage an die conditio humana. Salgado definiert seine Arbeit als "kämpferische Fotografie", die dem "besseren Verständnis des Menschseins" gewidmet ist. Über Jahrzehnte hinweg hat er in seinen Fotografien den Armen und Entrechteten etwas von der Menschenwürde zurückgegeben, die sie zu verlieren drohten - von den Hungernden in der Sahelzone bis zu den indigenen Völkern Südamerikas. Mit dem Band Arbeiter legt Salgado ein globales Bildepos vor, das über das bloße Abbilden hinausgeht und zu einer Hymne auf den Widerstandsgeist arbeitender Männer und Frauen wird. 350 Duoton-Fotografien eröffnen eine archäologische Perspektive auf diejenigen Tätigkeiten, die von der Steinzeit über die industrielle Revolution bis in unsere Gegenwart als Inbegriff harter Arbeit gelten. Mit Bildern aus dem Inferno einer indonesischen Schwefelmine, von der Dramatik des traditionellen sizilianischen Thunfischfangs und der schwindelerregenden Ausdauer brasilianischer Goldgräber legt Salgado Schichten visueller Informationen frei, um die unermüdliche menschliche Arbeit als Kern der modernen Zivilisation zu enthüllen. Arbeiter präsentiert sein Thema auf mehreren sich gegenseitig durchdringenden Ebenen: Salgados einleitender Text, entstanden in Zusammenarbeit mit dem brasilianischen Schriftsteller Eric Nepomuceno, erläutert seine leidenschaftliche fotografische Ikonografie. Ausführliche Bildunterschriften, die ebenfalls von Salgado stammen, liefern den historischen und faktischen Hintergrund. Das Buch ist eine von Offenheit und Respekt getragene Hommage an diejenigen Menschen, die mit ihren eigenen Händen, mit der Kraft ihres eigenen Körpers arbeiten.

Usually, people who talk about the Camino de Santiago mention the many kilometers they have travelled, the countless encounters along the way, and evenings spent in rustic guesthouses. Willi Filz (b. 1962) travelled the two great northern Spanish Caminos between 2015 and 2022 after falling victim to a twist of fate. His enchanting landscape and nature photographs do not show streams of pilgrims, lodgings, or cathedrals, but instead bear direct testimony to the experience of stillness and contemplation. The black and white photographs show motifs viewed directly from the Camino, drawn from moments of pause and contemplation. The photographer is not concerned with any kind of spectacular narrative. "The incidental is always there on our journeys, the insignificant always plays a part - and, if I pay attention to it, it whispers in my ear many of the answers I have spent years searching for."

American Gothic, Gordon Parks' 1942 portrait of government worker Ella Watson, is among the most celebrated photographs of the twentieth century. Created as part of an extensive collaboration between the photographer and his subject, it is at once a record of one woman's position within the racial, professional and economic hierarchies that stratified the nation's capital and Parks' visual reckoning with the realities of living in racially segregated Washington, D.C. Through his work with Watson-a custodian in the government building where he worked-Parks composed an intimate portrait of Black life by focusing on everyday activities, from work routines to family meals and church services. The resulting photographs trace a remarkably intimate portrait of Watson as a multidimensional figure, cherished by her community and vitally important within the civic sphere. American Gothic. Gordon Parks and Ella Watson provides a comprehensive overview of this pivotal series of photographs, including more than 50 images, some never published before, and additional archival material.Co-published with The Gordon Parks Foundation and the Minneapolis Institute of Art

Originally published in 1971, Gordon Parks' Born Black was the first book to unite his writing and his photography. It was also the first to provide a focused survey of Parks' documentation of a crucial time for the civil rights and Black Power movements. Today, more than 50 years later, this expanded edition of Born Black illuminates Parks' vision for the book and offers deeper insight into the series within it. The original publication featured nine articles commissioned by Life magazine from 1963 to 1970-some never-before published-supplemented with later commentary by Parks and presented as his personal account of these important historical moments. Born Black includes the original text and images, as well as additional photographs from each series, spreads from the 1971 book, early correspondence, reproductions of related Life articles, and new scholarly essays. The nine series selected by Parks for Born Black-a rare glimpse inside San Quentin State Prison; extensive documentation of the Black Muslim movement and the Black Panthers; his commentaries on the deaths of civil rights leaders Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr.; intimate portrait studies of Stokely Carmichael, Muhammad Ali and Eldridge Cleaver; and a narrative of the daily life of the impoverished Fontenelle family in Harlem-have come to define his legendary career as a photographer and activist. This reimagined, comprehensive edition of Born Black highlights the lasting legacy of these projects and their importance to our understanding of critical years in American history.Co-published with The Gordon Parks Foundation
