Photography continues to be a central part of international artistic practice. Over the past ten years it has experienced radical changes, in part due to the rise of digital technologies. Photography is now often engaged in by artists who are not just printing in a darkroom, but using the medium as a single aspect of a larger ouvre, as one of several media under exploration.Vitamin Ph focuses on diverse global developments in 'art' photography through the work of 121 contemporary artists, who were nominated by 78 international critics, curators and artists. These selections will be accompanied by a 5000 word introductory text by TJ Demos, aiming to explore ideas relevant to contemporary photography with reference to the works included in the book. In addition, the work of each photographer/artist will be introduced by a short commissioned text of approximately 500 words.

"Soviet Aviation, se trata del mítico libro que diseñaron en 1939 para el pabellón de la URSS en la Feria Mundial de Nueva York, mientras se iniciaba la Segunda Guerra Mundial, y que no ha vuelto a editarse hasta ahora. Un poetico libro de historia, capaz aun de presentar el avion como nunca mas ha podido hacerse despues, como una maravillosa maquina de progreso."

Como si fuera la última vez es la más completa exposición puesta en marcha hasta la fecha sobre la obra fotográfica del director alemán Wim Wenders (Dusseldorf, 1945) y su esposa Donata (Berlín, 1965) -directora de fotografia de sus filmes desde 1995-, y recoge una seleccion de fotografias tomadas por ambos en los ultimos quince años. Realizadas entre sus viajes personales y las pausas y descansos de los rodajes, las instantaneas de esta muestra reproducen dos mundos paralelos: uno en color en el que Wim Wenders retrata sobre todo lugares, y otro en blanco y negro, regido por su esposa Donata y habitado por retratos psicologicos y de estados de animo. La vision de ambos resulta, sin embargo, complementaria y esta caracterizada por una pasion y un talento naturales en el desempeño de la fotografia y la persecucion de la belleza en movimiento.

Few photographers have created such a legacy as Edward Weston (1886-1958). After a decade of successfully making photographs with painterly soft-focus techniques, Weston became the key pioneer of the school of precise and sharp presentation, dubbed Straight Photography. Through the 1920s, 30s, and 40s, Weston was a major force in pushing forward the art of photography. His photographs are monuments of sensual realism, perfectly composed images of stillness that sear with passion and intensity. Whatever the subject, be it a vegetable, landscape, shell, or naked body, Weston's lens captures the essence of its life force, the fundamentals of its form.
