Stephen Shore (b. 1947) is a true artistic innovator whose work has opened up new frontiers for contemporary photography. His photographs of American scenes unveil the exceptional beauty to be found in the everyday. As one of the first art photographers to work in color, Shore pioneered such contemporary genres as the diaristic snapshot (later taken up by Nan Goldin and Wolfgang Tillmans) and the monumentalized landscape (as later practiced by Becher-school photographers Thomas Struth and Andreas Gursky). This monograph offers the first complete examination of Shore''s long and storied career, from his residency at Warhol''s Factory to his experiments in conceptual photography; from his landmark series AMERICAN SURFACES to his continued exploration of emerging techniques. Shore''s high-key portraits of America''s chromatic landscape can be found in the permanent collections of major museums all over the world.

"Don McCullin's view of England is rooted in his war time childhood and in growing up in Finsbury Park, north London, in the fifties. His first published photograph was a picture of a gang from his neighbourhood, which appeared in a newspaper after a local murder. The boys were his childhood friends. McCullin has always balanced his anger at the unacceptable face of the nation with tenderness or compassion. In England combines some of his greatest work with many previously unpublished photographs and an entirely new body of pictures." "McCullin sees in his native country a perpetual social gulf dividing the affluent and the destitute. He continues in the same black-and-white tradition as he demonstrated between foreign assignments for the Sunday Times in the sixties and seventies, when his view of a deprived Britain seemed as dark as the conflict zones from which he'd just escaped. At a time when we might believe the world has changed beyond our imagination, McCullin shows us a view of England where the line between the wealthy and the poor is as defined as ever. This time he adds wry humour to his lyricism, as if the nation is as absurd as it is tragic. At the heart of it all is McCullin's deep love of the English landscape. He transforms his views of the hills and fields of Somerset beneath dark, raging skies into the battlefields of his imagination. It is here he feels completely at home."--BOOK JACKET.

En 2014 Cristina de Middel se involucró con el archivo fotográfico del periódico sensacionalista Alerta y empezó a trabajar con la idea de explorar los diferentes lenguajes de la violencia y qué papel desempeñaba la fotografia en todo ese ambito.Asi, tradujo al dibujo 200 fotografias a las que añadio, como si de una tira comica se tratara, cuadros de dialogo en los personajes con letras de canciones rancheras, que en el nombre del amor y la pasion reivindican acciones y reacciones no siempre tiernas.La combinacion de estos tres elementos resulto en una serie a la que se dio forma de libro y que ofrece una invitacion a replantearse los contenidos que nos llegan, y a identificar la violencia escondida detras de codigos asumidos. Se trata de una reflexion necesaria, especialmente en la sociedad en la que vivimos, para reconocer los limites de lo aceptable y tratarlos de manera desvinculada, con el fin de comprender su verdadero impacto.

Graciela Iturbide (1942), ganadora del Hasselblad Foundation Award 2008 y reconocida como la gran fotógrafa de América Latina, en esta ocasión presenta Mi ojo, una selección personal de imágenes en blanco y negro que ha sido definida como"misteriosa".En este libro, Iturbide lleva la fotografia al extremo mediante el uso de tinta plata sobre cartulina negra en su impresion, lo que da a la imagen la apariencia de un negativo, pero a la vez refuerza la rareza intrinseca de las fotografias.
