    "Goddesses of sex and light, fully owning their own bodies and sexuality with innate empowerment." This is how photographer Elizabeth Waterman describes the female adult entertainers featured in Candyland, a series of colorful and vibrant portraits designed to capture the unique personalities of the subjects. The actresses were very much a part of the creative process, adding their own ideas to create playful images celebrating their individual beauty and charisma. Waterman's previous book, Moneygame, an acclaimed photographic depiction of the world of strip clubs across the USA, inspired her to invite some of America's leading porn stars to take part in a project which reflects them through a female lens, shot against vibrant, sunlit Southern Californian settings. "I liked showing them in deliciousness, excess, and fun and glory," said Waterman. "The porn stars that I photographed were happy to be doing what they were doing, they loved having sex and they were good at it." Candyland features a foreword by Stormy Daniels.

  • - Landscape Into Shanhe
     
    546,-

    The book shows Yin Zhaoyang's 12-year retrospective on the series 'Mount Song'. Yin Zhaoyang is a celebrated contemporary Chinese artist who gained fame in the 1990s for his figurative paintings that depicted people's psychological struggles during social changes in China. In 2008, he embarked on a new landscape project, with Mount Song as the subject matter. Although landscape art, or Shanshui, has a long history in Chinese art, Yin brought a new spirituality to it that went beyond traditional literati art. His 'Mount Song' series is a new topic called Shanhe, where geography and topology are intertwined with contemporary temperament. This echoes Yin's portraits, which visualise the agitation in nature and culture.

    Tyrell and Julia booked to travel on the Titanic with their two sons to introduce them to their American grandfather, but the children were too ill to travel. Julia persisted in going without them. The fatal and tragic decision not only led to the unnecessary loss of her husband, it was to haunt her for the next fifty years. Why was she so determined to go? In a letter written to her sons, as her death approached, she claimed the purpose of the visit was 'to gain her wealthy father's support for his son-in-law's ambition to stand as a Member of Parliament.' Yet Tyrell had shown no enthusiasm for making the journey, as Julia had already made the trip alone, the previous year quite safely. From the Carpathia Julia cabled her father, Henry Siegel, to have clothes from his department stores ready for the Titanic's survivors. In 1992 and 2002 her son and grandson learnt from chance encounters with New Yorkers of Julia's father's shocking fall from grace, the grandfather who owned a famous department store with a 'soda fountain meeting place'. Now can be revealed the true reason for her mission.

  • - The Artist Mary Beale (New Edition)
     
    330,-

    Mary Beale (1633-1699) was one of the earliest professional women artists in Britain. Her successful career was documented by her husband, Charles, whose almanacks provide a unique record of Mary's patrons, painting technique and family affairs. Her portraits of politicians, clergy, aristocracy and intellectuals reflect the vibrant literary, scientific and political scene of the seventeenth century. She has been seen as a feminist icon not only as a professional artist but also as a poet and the author of a Discourse on Friendship (1667) which argued for the equality of husband and wife in marriage - a radical concept at that time. This new edition includes newly documented paintings by Mary Beale that have come to light since the first edition was published in 2019.

    This book paints the story of a Western artist's discovery of authentic Mexico, encapsulating a journey away from narrow observations of the country's stereotypes- black and white films, cactus', cartels, and the jumping bean- towards a greater understanding of its significance in the social and geopolitical landscape. From the emergence of Mexican muralism in the immediate wake of the country's early 20th-century revolution to traditional customs that have survived and flourished amidst the country's progress. Rooney draws his inspiration from a myriad of spaces and places, permanently recording their significance in a book that can only be described as having a touch of eternal Mexico.

    The young woman was weaving a shawl. Jacqueline offered to purchase this square of colourful fabric, a few coins jingled on the table. A man immediately appeared and took the money. In 1993 Jacqueline de Chollet founded The Veerni Project (Veer Ni, 'the brave woman' in Hindi) which strives to uplift women and girls, to break the cycle of poverty and gender inequality, and provide them with essential skills and knowledge through the establishment of a program to attend good secondary schools - universal secondary education being a sustainable goal of the United Nations - as well as training centres and healthcare facilities. Secondary schooling is often unavailable in many rural settings particularly in the desert area of Rajasthan. By fostering self reliance and promoting women's rights through education, this uplifting story sheds a light on how such endeavours aim to create a sustainable impact on the lives of women, fostering a brighter future for generations to come so that women's voices can be heard in their communities and their countries. This cultural and sociological adventure takes on a global dimension on the role of women, their struggles, their future and their hopes. These brave women will make the world a better place for all.
