Book Description
The hundred and fifty or so pictures that make up this retrospective of the work of Alberto Garcia-Alix (Leon, 1956) illustrate one of the most outstanding careers om the past quarter-century of Spanish photography. His artistic experience unfolds in a sort of poetic narration: that of his own private journey into the depths of the night. His ongoing autobiographical endeavour has driven him to document the chronicle of his time through a set of portraits which often include his own. Three different approaches can be discerned in his vast production. The initial period (1975-1982), to which most of his 35mm. work belongs; the eighties, which evidence the mature style of a sophisticated composer of frames; and the recent nineties, which witness a shift towards an increasingly cold, bare and essential perspective. Projects that reflect the multifaceted and heterodox nature of an artist whose oeurve rooted in the most classical tradition of black and white photography.

Book Description
This is a superb collection of intimate and revealing self-portraits by renowned Spanish photographer Alberto Garcia-Alix. Alberto Garcia-Alix is considered one of the finest Spanish photographers of the 21st century. Best known for his striking black and white portraits, Garcia-Alix has also captured self-portraits in nearly all his projects. What is telling about these images is that, while some are not traditional self-portraits as they don't feature the artist himself, instead showing everything from city streets to loved pets, they all capture some of the essence that has made Garcia-Alix one of today's most respected photographers. Autorretrato brings together these self-portraits - many of which are previously unpublished - providing an intimate and revealing look at Garcia-Alix's continued evolution as an artist.

The South in Color
Author: William Ferris
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469629690
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
Since the moment William Ferris's parents gave their twelve-year-old son a Kodak Brownie Hawkeye camera for Christmas in 1954, Ferris passionately began to photograph his world. He has never stopped. The sixties and seventies were a particularly significant period for Ferris as he became a pathbreaking documentarian of the American South. This beautiful, provocative collection of 100 of Ferris's photographs of the South, taken during this formative period, capture the power of his color photography. Color film, as Ferris points out in the book's introduction, was not commonly used by documentarians during the latter half of the twentieth century, but Ferris found color to work in significant ways in the photographic journals he created of his world in all its permutations and surprises. The volume opens with images of his family's farm and its workers--family and hired--southeast of Vicksburg, Mississippi. The images are at once lyrical and troubling. As Ferris continued to photograph people and their homes, churches, and blues clubs, their handmade signs and folk art, and the roads that wound through the region, divisive racial landscapes become part of the record. A foreword by Tom Rankin, professor of visual studies and former director of the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University, provides rich insight into Ferris's work.
