Book Description
"To paraphrase Picasso, we might say that Solberg belongs to a class of artists who 'do not seek, but find'. Offering us an essential vision of the world." - José Guirao"Paul's images evoke bygone eras, while remaining fresh and immediate." Sir Elton John"Solberg's work is mystical, hopeful, and timeless; a world in which Solberg lives, and wishes we could all live." Jason Sheftell, New York Daily News A selection of ten years of photographs from today's rising photographer, Paul Solberg, from Sicily to Jordan, Cairo to Vietnam, back to the wild and the un-wild American west. From the skin of a flower petal to the skin of youth. From the intimate portrait of Ai Weiwei to haunting faces of America's Armed Forces. Each photograph takes the viewer on an escape into another world.Paul Solberg (1969, Minnesota), a rising photographic force, before moving to NYC in 1996, he studied Anthropology at the University of Cape Town, and extensive travel, from years South Africa, to South America and Asia. Solberg began his photographic career with his first published book, Bloom (2005), following Puppies Behind Bars (2006), Tyrants + Lederhosen (2011), and Tattoos, Hornets & Fire (2012). Originally known for his exquisite still life portraits, the same sensitivity is seen in his human subjects, such as his celebrated portraits are of Ai Wei Wei (2008), and his haunting portraits of the Armed Forces in Service (2010), which resides in such collections as the Elton John Photography Collection. Solberg's photographs have been published in Publisher's Weekly, Le Figaro, CNN, La Lettre, Interview Magazine, WSJ Int l Edition, Conde Nast Traveler, The Huffington Post, and New York Daily News.

Her

Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
HER is a stunning collection of photographs by Los Angeles photographer Marjorie Salvaterra that explores and challenges the depiction of women's experiences as daughters, mothers, partners, and agents of their own destinies. Witty, moving, and thought-provoking, HER evokes the work of ground-breaking female photographers such as Cindy Sherman and Sally Mann, though Salvaterra's unique style is all her own. Inspired in part by her experiences as artist, wife, and mother, and by her travels, Salvaterra has created strikingly beautiful images that make us rethink our expectations of women and our notions of femininity, particularly in light of the drive to achieve "perfection," not just physically but also in all our other spheres, as daughters, mothers, sisters, and partners; and as we seek to express our talents and fulfill our dreams. Playing with the conventions of fashion photography, art cinema, pop culture, and advertising imagery, Salvaterra has created photographs that are provocative (and often humorous) explorations of the female image. They make us look twice and then think again about female identity, women's lives, and how we represent them. With a foreword by preeminent cultural commentator Roxane Gay, HER is a gorgeous and thoughtful collection, exploring the beauty and struggle of being a woman today. By turns, surprising, inspiring, and amusing, HER is a book that women of every age will find resonant.

We think that it's possible to live in a house or apartment by a bold modern architect, to own furniture and products that are exceptionally well designed, and still be a regular human being. We think that good design is an integral part of real life. And that real life has been conspicuous by its absence in most design and architecture magazines.
