Matilde Marín in Pharus II. Landscapes and Photographic Fictions again embarks on a visual journey that documents and recreates lighthouses of the world. This work illuminates with reddish tones the lighthouses that are the return home - in the reverse journey to Pharus. From the southern hemisphere to the north - now the artist goes from Iceland to the southernmost south of Argentina. In this displacement with documentary images and fictional landscapes Marin presents lighthouses that are not only physical guides at sea, but by their visuality now reveal spaces of fascination and are the occasion to imagine new narratives that revitalise these symbols of memory and history. Laura Malosetti Costa expresses that the lighthouses evoke concepts and narratives such as those of the voyage, shipwreck, tragedy, and are the result of both the artists experiences and her literary readings. Adriana Musitano analyses the abyssal settings that partially duplicate the lighthouses in their reflections and observes that Marin astonishes with images that create a utopian space by creating photographic fictions that link the landscape of the Salinas Grandes of Argentina with faraway places. The lighthouses and constellations in this ebook illuminate our planet and the planisphere shows them in relation to the cardinal points, seas and continents. Marin narrates his return home and also his trip to Egypt, when he learns about the place where the first lighthouse was, Alexandria. The Lighthouses of affection are added, with photographs of her friends, remembering her.

Storm is increasingly the default setting for our lives. It is as if the next environmental, medical, social or political calamity is mere moments away. Of course, Storm is the dramatic expression of natures wild side, yet it is also the defining characteristic of our age. We are constantly reminded that the precious ecosystems of our fragile planet are under threat as never before. At the same time our social and political systems are fracturing - in the famously prophetic words of W.B. Yeats the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world. Against all of this there are ripples of discontent that could still turn into a storm powerful enough to provoke the kinds of change necessary to save us all.The Prix Pictet is the worlds leading award for photography and sustainability. It was founded in 2008 by the Pictet Group with the goal of harnessing the power of photography to draw global attention to critical environmental issues. To date, there have been eleven cycles of the award, each with its own theme highlighting a particular facet of sustainability. For each cycle, a book is published showcasing the work of the shortlisted photographers as well as powerful images produced by a selection of the other nominated photographers.

As a dedicated photographer, I aim to capture the worlds beauty with sensitivity. Whether through serene landscapes or vibrant street scenes, I seek to foreground human connection. My artistic perspective is profoundly shaped by a theme that holds deep personal significance: hope. I believe that as long as life endures, there is always an open door. In a world frequently overshadowed by sorrow and uncertainty, I strive to emphasize what is gentler, brighter, and filled with promise. Through both my photography and poetry, I seek to convey a deeply held conviction : we must persist in believing in the possibility of a better tomorrow.

In this series of linked pieces, Collins offers a reappraisal of photographic genres including the humble and ubiquitous that he believes are worthy of greater understanding. From restoring abandoned photos, whose subjects are lost to time, to a quotidian history of the studio portrait; from tracing the origins of the photographic survey within the wider field of the history of art to an experiment in portraiture using gorillas, Collins reveals what it is about photography that is so enduringly fascinating.

Als Oberes Mittelrheintal wird der Rheinabschnitt zwischen Bingen und Koblenz bezeichnet, der 2002 durch die UNESCO zum Weltkulturerbe ernannt wurde. Charakteristisch fur diese Region sind die steil ansteigenden Talflanken links und rechts des Rheins, der in zahlreichen Schleifen durch das Tal in Richtung Norden stromt. Hier haben sich schon vor langer Zeit viele Siedlungen, die heutigen Ortschaften und Stadte, gebildet, die Zeuge der Schonheit und Attraktivitat dieser Region fur den Menschen in der Vergangenheit und heute sind. Der Rhein, die zahlreichen Ortschaften, die sich eng an die Talhange schmiegen, und der in den Hangen angebaute Wein geben dieser Landschaft einen einzigartigen Charakter. Daruber hinaus findet man speziell in diesem Abschnitt des Rheins etwas ganz Besonderes: eine groe Zahl an Burgen und Schlossern,die entlang des oberen Mittelrheintals im Laufe der Jahrhunderte errichtet wurden und einen groen Anteil an der Romantik haben, die diese Flusslandschaft noch heute ausstrahlt. Seit dem 18. Jahrhundert wurde das Obere Mittelrheintal sogar zum Inbegriff der Rheinromantik. Diese Romantik lasst sich nicht nur am Tag, sondern insbesondere dann erleben, wenn die Sonne bereits untergegangen ist. Dann erstrahlen die Burgen hoch im Hang in schonen, warmen Farben und leuchten weit sichtbar. Dieser Bildband versucht, diesen besonderen Lichterzauber in Bildern einzufangen, um die Schonheit und Romantik dieser einzigartigen Landschaft zu zeigen. Neben den Bildern enthalt der Bildband auch Informationen zur Geschichte der einzelnen Bauten. Eine Ubersichtskarte zusammen mit einer Detailkarte fur jede Sehenswurdigkeit zeigt, wo genau man sie findet. Jetzt in neuem handlichem 17x17cm Format gedruckt auf 200g Fotopapier fur besonders stimmungsvolle Farben.

Tudo começou no ano de 1944, durante um encontro entre amigos no bar do Neno Zaninetti localizado na rua XV de Novembro, exatamente onde hoje abriga a Borracharia do Xerife. Um modesto, porém movimentado bar existia naquele local, frequentado pelos moradores da redondeza. Na maioria, de origem italiana e seus descendentes. Gente simples, quase todos exerciam a profisso de operario e buscavam na bocha e no futebol uma forma de entretenimento. Com o entusiasmo do Pedro Zaninetti, o "Neno" e o apoio dos Marucci, dos Bignardi, dos Martelli, dos Souza, dos Pozzobom, dos Cassoli, entre outros, resolveu-se fundar um clube, o Esporte Clube Operario, batizado com as cores verde e branco, influencia e claro da comunidade palestrina (italiana). Dai ento o bairro passou a vibrar com seu proprio time de futebol, formado basicamente por jovens operarios da Fabrica de Tecidos (Fiaço e Tecelagem de Pirassununga), do Expurgo (Posto de Sementes de Algodo), do Laticinio Pirassununga, e outras pequenas empresas da regio. Jogadores que eram transportados para os locais de jogos atraves de carroças, que faziam ponto na estaço Ferroviaria da Companhia Paulista de Estrada de Ferro, que tambem cedia funcionarios para reforçar o plantel do Esporte Clube Operario. Em 1946, dois anos mais tarde, com a necessidade de se filiar a Federaço Paulista de Futebol, por imposiço da mesma, o Esporte Clube Operario teve que mudar o nome para Esporte Clube Unio uma vez que a denominaço Operario no era simpatico ao regime politico vigente. No dia 9 de Outubro de 1946, reuniram-se as 19h00, na rua Siqueira Campos, antigo predio de numero 166, onde existia o predio do Sindicato, 48 pessoas, todas radicadas em Pirassununga, que resolveram, de comum acordo, fundar oficialmente o gremio esportivo voltado em primeiro plano ao futebol. Neste livro trazemos toda a historia do Esporte Clube Unio. Historia de muita raça e determinaço.
