Print's Best Illustration & Photography
Author: Linda Silver
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780915734825
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 202
Book Description
From the tremendously rich variety of Print's Regional Design Annual winners, Print's editors have selected 200 superb applications of illustration and photography in a wide range of print communications for the latest in the Print's Best series. Because of the Regional Annual's dense format, these winning entries had to be shown small. This book provides the opportunity not only to show the pieces at a generous size, thereby enhancing their impact, but also to feature many of them along with related materials. Here we have brilliantly effective ads, editorial spreads, posters, book and magazine covers, direct-mail, packaging, and corporate publications, all of which use illustration or photography, or a combination of the two, as a central element in the design. Publishing companies account for about a third of the work shown here - including newspaper pages, magazine covers and spreads, and book covers. Print ads represent many different kinds of businesses - among them beverage, food, delivery service, window manufacturers, and sports equipment companies. Posters promote arts festivals, art schools, seminars, and movies, and some do double duty as self-promotion pieces for their creators. Self-promotion for photographers and illustrators runs the gamut from posters and direct-mail pieces to printed ads. Corporate publications for well-known companies like IBM, Kodak, Adobe, and Strathmore include capability brochures, product promotions, and, of course, annual reports. The work shown covers the gamut of current illustrative and photographic techniques, making the book an invaluable resource for anyone in the design field.

Travels in Siberia
Author: Ian Frazier
Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux
ISBN: 1429964316
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 541
Book Description
A Dazzling Russian travelogue from the bestselling author of Great Plains In his astonishing new work, Ian Frazier, one of our greatest and most entertaining storytellers, trains his perceptive, generous eye on Siberia, the storied expanse of Asiatic Russia whose grim renown is but one explanation among hundreds for the region's fascinating, enduring appeal. In Travels in Siberia, Frazier reveals Siberia's role in history—its science, economics, and politics—with great passion and enthusiasm, ensuring that we'll never think about it in the same way again. With great empathy and epic sweep, Frazier tells the stories of Siberia's most famous exiles, from the well-known—Dostoyevsky, Lenin (twice), Stalin (numerous times)—to the lesser known (like Natalie Lopukhin, banished by the empress for copying her dresses) to those who experienced unimaginable suffering in Siberian camps under the Soviet regime, forever immortalized by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn in The Gulag Archipelago. Travels in Siberia is also a unique chronicle of Russia since the end of the Soviet Union, a personal account of adventures among Russian friends and acquaintances, and, above all, a unique, captivating, totally Frazierian take on what he calls the "amazingness" of Russia—a country that, for all its tragic history, somehow still manages to be funny. Travels in Siberia will undoubtedly take its place as one of the twenty-first century's indispensable contributions to the travel-writing genre.
