Download or read book Sydney Lives written by Fairfax Media Publications Pty Limited and published by . This book was released on 2021-11-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sydney Morning Herald has been recording history in real time for 190 years. As one of the world's oldest publications, that means its photographic archives are rich beyond belief with images that tell the story of Sydney better than any words could. Of Surry Hills before it was trendy; the harbour before the Opera House; the bridge in the process of being built. And just as importantly, of Sydneysiders going about their workdays and enjoying their precious down time - at the beach, on the tennis court, at the ice-cream parlour, on the streets. Since 1908, The Sydney Morning Herald has excelled as much in the visual telling of stories as it has with words. Photography is at the core of our brand. Through the process of research, curating and designing, we are affirming the ever present photographic eye of a Herald photographer that is very much alive today. How can we do justice to a photographic archive of 113 years? Through a distinct selection of photos, we feature the artistry and form that demand design and presentation to celebrate the lives of Sydneysiders of the past. You don't have to have been born in this city, in this country, to appreciate the spirit of Sydney; its first people, and the meeting of cultures that make up its unique landscape and character. From this rare archive, Herald photographic editor Mags King has curated a selection of images to celebrate the newspaper's 190th birthday year.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first picture book that the award-winning Sydney Smith has both written and illustrated is a story about feeling small in the city — and finding your way home. On a snowy day in a big city, a little boy hops off a streetcar and walks through downtown, between office buildings, through parks and down busy streets. Along the way, he provides helpful tips about which alleys make good shortcuts, which trees to climb and where to find a friendly face. All the while, the boy searches for what he has lost ... The first book that award-winning illustrator Sydney Smith has written tells a story of what it means to get lost in the city, travel the wrong path and get caught in bad weather — and to ultimately find your way back home. His beautiful watercolour illustrations alternate between full spreads and small panels, evoking the sometimes overwhelming cacophony of urban sights and sounds, as well as the quiet moments that make all of us feel less small in the city.

Download or read book Shooting the Picture written by Sally Young and published by Melbourne Univ. Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shooting The Picture is the story of Australian press photography from 1888 to today—the power of the medium, seismic changes in the newspaper industry, and photographers who were often more colourful than their subjects. This groundbreaking book explores our political leaders and campaigns, crime, war and censorship, international events, disasters and trauma, sport, celebrity, gender, race and migration. It maps the technological evolution in the industry from the dark room to digital, from picturegram machines to iPhones, and from the death knock to the ascendancy of social media. It raises the question whether these changes will spell the end of traditional press photography as we know it.

Download or read book Rage Against the Light written by Markus Andersen and published by . This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rage Against The LightPlace: Sydney CBD. Or a city anywhere. Time: Mostly daytime yet feels like night.Era: Early 21st century. Mood: Dark but hopeful.Light: Dramatic. Sydney is a city in the midst of a development boom. Skyscrapers. Cranes. Man-made environment. Concrete. Few trees. Mirrored surfaces. Windows magnifying light. Consumer advertising expressing people's desires. Impersonal at heart.There are signs of life amid the cold abstractions of architecture. People scurry about being literally exposed by light. They are struck by shafts between buildings like insects coming out for food. Solitary male figures appear as different identities. A man in a suit, dragging on a cigarette is lost in thought.Street photography is a genre with a long history (Garry Winogrand, Daido Moriyama, Trent Parke). The CBD is a favorite haunt. Some photographers seek out people or emphasize a sense of isolation in the crowd. Others evoke a haunting mood empty of human presence. Markus Andersen does both, loving the tradition of black and white (high contrast), square format and abstraction. With very deliberate cropping and enterprising juxtapositions he reveals his skill for graphic design. He aligns the elements of people and place to make a wryly humourous visual haiku. The Leunig of photography.Markus Andersen's photographs describe an experience familiar to us. It is exciting and full of promise to go to the CBD and yet it can leave us feeling empty. We go home only temporarily satiated. This essay is rich with worldly wisdom. There is satisfaction in the vision shared. It celebrates the humanity of the self and its endless creative ability to interpret. This is the role of the artist. It casts light on our experience by speaking from the heart. Markus Anderson sheds light on our love of life and our love of light.

Download or read book City of Shadows written by Peter Doyle and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extensive collection of police forensic negatives casts a fascinating light on the shadowy underworld of Sydney between the wars. In the mugshots we encounter people of that world - thieves, breakers, receivers, 'magsmen', false pretenders, 'hotel barbers', dope users, prostitutes, makers of false oaths - and the occasional murderer. And within this medium of crime and accident scene photographs we are able to view, sometimes in extraordinary detail, their physical milieu - the mean kitchens, bedrooms and parlours, the pubs, boarding houses, corner shops and residentials, the garages, back lanes and byways of a city that is both eerily strange but all too familiar.
