Book By Now

    Book Details:
  • Author : Matthias Harder
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2013
  • ISBN : 9783868284096
  • Pages : 143 pages

Download or read book By Now written by Matthias Harder and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The individual photographs and groups of works were selected from a variety of submissions and range from classic black-and-white portraits to flashy Photoshop experiments. The focus of artistic interest is always on human subjects in diverse everyday situations, whether sunbathing on the town beach in their spare time, enjoying a breakfast break at a bus station, or as proud war veterans. The pictures paint a timeless and contemporary picture of life in Belarus rather than offering a representative portrayal of day-to-day realities, sometimes with documentary intention, and at other times with an ironic twist. World War II and the defeat of the German occupiers is evidently still today an important "official" theme for Belarusian society, a fact that is visually commented on by the alternative art scene. Hardly any of these images have been published or exhibited to date. 0Exhibition: Photofestival Lodz, Polen (6.-16.6.2013) / ifa Galerie Berlin, Germany (Autumn 2014).

From the supply chain perspective, Container Logistics covers areas such as the purchase of transportation services from ocean carriers and transport management, to effective and efficient logistics execution. From the maritime business perspective, the book covers topics such as intermodal freight optimisation and hinterland transportation, and terminal and port optimisation. With the inclusion of clear examples of best practice and bona fide case studies, as well as invaluable contributions from an international team of experts, Container Logistics is an essential guide for supply chain managers and shippers, as well as academics and industry professionals working in the maritime business. Online supporting resources include images from the book and chapter summaries.

Book Self Portrait in Green

  • Author : Marie NDiaye
  • Publisher : Influx Press
  • Release : 2021-02-25
  • ISBN : 1910312908
  • Pages : 81 pages

Download or read book Self Portrait in Green written by Marie NDiaye and published by Influx Press. This book was released on 2021-02-25 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

Book Victor Hasselblad

Download or read book Victor Hasselblad written by Sören Gunnarsson and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Victor Hasselblad's life became dramatic and successful. As a youth he sought refuge in nature and photography and with time he became a world traveller and a successful industrialist. Victor Hasselblad : The Man Behind the Camera written by Sören Gunnarson is the result of many years of research and is based on extensive interviews and voluminous correspondence. Apart from relating the story of the man behind the camera, the book also contains a record of Hasselblad camera models and describes the events that took place when the company changed from analogue to digital photography. The Hasselblad camera made its huge breakthrough when the American astronauts began to use it in space. The photographs of the first men on the Moon are some of the most published images in the world. The camera also figured largely for more earthbound photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, working in the fields of advertising, fashion, photojournalism, portraiture, nature, science and medicine. The idea for his camera came to Victor Hasselblad (1906-78) in his youth when he travelled around the Swedish countryside to photograph birds. Never really satisfied with his results, he began to dream about a better camera.

Download or read book Unposed written by Craig Semetko and published by Whalen Studios Editions. This book was released on 2022-09-20 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Follow in the footsteps of Leica Camera Ambassador Craig Semetko’s 10 year trek across the globe to capture the spontaneity, humor, and juxtaposition of the human experience. In the book’s forward, iconic photographer Elliott Erwin writes, “Good photographs are tough enough to shoot. Really funny ones are even harder. Good and funny photographs observed in nature not arranged or manipulated but simply observed in real time with amazing consistency, constitute a minor miracle now presented in Mr. Semetko’s book…In my book, he is the essential photographer. That is, the one who sees what others could not have seen.” Inspired by Cartier-Bresson, Robert Frank, and Elliott Erwitt, Craig Semetko is a collector of the spontaneous moment. With an uncanny knack for using Leica Cameras to capture the beautiful and unexpected that surrounds us all, Semetko offers a striking collection of imagery shot during 10 years of traveling around the world, from Edinburgh to Amsterdam, France to Los Angeles, Hanoi to Bangkok, and beyond. This visual celebration records the first decade of the twenty-first century across all walks of life. Semetko documents the muted beauty of regular people simply living their lives, and captures the humor found in the offbeat and eccentric contrasts all around us. Unposed is a memorable exploration of an era shot by a skilled photographer, dubbed by Esquire magazine as “a noble torchbearer” of the Leica Camera legacy.
