Walk the Earth
This spectacularly produced volume is a heartfelt tribute to the majesty of elephants, offering an intimate glimpse into the lives of these gentle giants in their wild African habitats. Renowned for his evocative animal portraits, Federico Veronesi brings a profound sensitivity and reverence to his elephant subjects, capturing the strength, wisdom, and quiet resilience that make these creatures enduring symbols of the untamed wilderness. His personal reflections, woven throughout the book, deepen the experience, expressing awe, respect, and hope for elephants and the landscapes they inhabit. The full-page images, many extending over a single spread, show the tuskers pachyderms roaming watering holes, dry lake beds, sweeping savannahs, and remote valleys, often framed by towering mountains or shimmering horizons. In South and East African locations such as Amboseli, Liwonde, the Mana Pools, and the Chyulu Hills, Veronesi describes waiting anxiously to capture moments of quiet majesty--a tusker silhouetted against a sunset, a matriarch leading her herd across a parched landscape, or a lone bull standing sentinel beneath a dramatic sky. Veronesi calls these elephants the "last witnesses of a world before humans took over the earth." His images evoke this sense of eternity, capturing not just the animals' grandeur, but also their vulnerability in a rapidly changing world. With luxurious paper, rich printing, and elegant binding, this extraordinary volume invites readers to walk beside these giants, feel the pulse of the wild, and share in the hope for the future of elephants and the wilderness they call home.

Catherine Opie: Genre / Gender / Portraiture
Nearly four decades of work from the photographer who redefined the expression of gender in contemporary queer portraitureA leading voice in contemporary photography, Catherine Opie has been known for her portraits of the queer scene in California since the late 1980s. A fundamental element of Opie's work is the observation of different gender performances through a critical revision of the genre of portraiture. Her photography emphasizes how portraiture has the power to both reinforce and deconstruct conventional and binary expressions of gender. The title of this publication and the MASP exhibition it accompanies is based on the double meaning of the word g礙nero in Portuguese, meaning both "gender" and "genre."For her first solo show in Brazil, Opie enters into dialogue with the tradition of the portrait--a way of representing the human figure that dates to the 15th century in the West--producing an archive of diverse presentations of gender and sexuality. Around 60 photographs from her most iconic series are displayed alongside a selection of around 15 emblematic portraits from MASP's collection. Strongly marked by figuration and the formal constraint of portraiture, the juxtaposition of these works accentuates the dialogues, tensions and reformulations that Opie's photographic oeuvre proposes.Catherine Opie was born in Ohio in 1961 and is currently a professor of photography and the chair of the art department at UCLA. Opie's work has been exhibited extensively throughout the United States, Europe and Japan. She has had solo exhibitions of her work at the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; St. Louis Art Museum; Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, among many others.

Yves Saint Laurent and Photography
Yves Saint Laurent and his designs, as captured by the greatest photographers of the 20th centuryYves Saint Laurent collaborated with some of the greatest photographers of the 20th century. For over four decades, until the closing of his fashion house in 2002, Saint Laurent and his creations were captured by cutting-edge photographers - including such legends as Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, David Bailey, Helmut Newton, William Klein, Sarah Moon, Annie Leibovitz, Paolo Roversi, and Juergen Teller - resulting in iconic pictures that helped shape his own image as well as that of his brand.Yves Saint Laurent and Photography shines new light on the world of the genius couturier, tracing both the course of fashion and the history of 20th-century photography. This beautifully designed book features an astonishing range of imagery: breathtaking fashion photographs of subjects such as Audrey Hepburn, Catherine Deneuve, Naomi Campbell, and Kate Moss; portraits of Saint Laurent; and never-before-seen archival documents, all packaged in a luxe oversized volume.
Aurelio Amendola for Michelangelo
Aurelio Amendola's digital photography of iconic sculptures, offering an immersive experience of Buonarrotiani masterpieces. Accompanies 'The Primacy of Informal' exhibition held at Rifugio Digitale in Italy from 13 November 2024 to 5 January 2025. In a completely unexpected way, Aurelio Amendola, a world-renowned photographer, goes beyond his consolidated practice of printing on paper to take up the challenge of the contemporary medium par excellence, digital, exhibiting his shots dedicated to Michelangelo on the screens of Rifugio Digitale. The gallery that hosted the exhibition draws its identity from its origin: an anti-aircraft bunker built in Florence during the Second World War to protect the neighborhood from bombing. The redevelopment of the tunnel has given rise to a space that welcomes artistic expressions of all kinds, with a strong look towards the future and a strong predilection for everything that moves in the digital field. Antonio Natali, together with the photographer from Pistoia, selected these images, curating the exhibition and the volume, inviting us to pay attention to something completely different from the canonical iconography to which we are accustomed. In fact, we are presented with an iconic Michelangelo.
Adirondack Solitude
Solitude is hard to find these days, and harder still to capture in an image. But that's just what award-winning photographer Russ Hartung does in his photographs of the majestic peaks and intimate views of the Adirondack wilderness. Adirondack Solitude explores the feeling of being on top of a mountain before sunrise and watching the light change over landscapes of unbroken wilderness; the serenity of drifting across a misty lake in a kayak and hearing a loon's echoing call in the distance; the chorus of enveloping rain from a sudden thunderstorm while on the trail, and the answering symphony of peepers along the shore heard from the warmth of a tent in the evening. And it's the vicarious feeling Hartung shares when he sees someone paddling slowly across a shrouded lake in the fog or a lone figure staring off towards the horizon from atop a rocky outcrop at the end of a hard climb. Whether it's a wide-open view at the top of a High Peak or the miniature world brimming over in a hidden rock pool, both the towering and the tiny inspire this sort of awe-inspiring connectedness. Adirondack Solitude will give readers the key to peaceful and meditative presence among the Adirondacks no matter where they are.
Sandy Skoglund: Enchanting Nature
Skoglund's dream-like images of colorful animals against quotidian backgrounds evince the paradoxes between the natural environment and the manmade worldPublished with McNay Art Museum and Paci Contemporary Gallery. American photographer and installation artist Sandy Skoglund's (born 1946) work drowns viewers in the ultra-saturated consciousness of contemporary life. From neon orange goldfish swimming in a blue bedroom to toxic green cats stalking around a kitchen, the conflict between the manmade world and the natural environment becomes an ongoing struggle--an eternal clash of culture and nature. Thus, the appropriately titled exhibition Enchanting Nature, and its corresponding catalog, showcases works from Skoglund's entire career, emphasizing the ongoing themes in her art including ecology, the environment and interspecies kinship. It includes her most famous installations such as Revenge of the Goldfish and Radioactive Cats alongside the never-before-exhibited Fresh Hybrid (2008). Additionally, Skoglund's recent photography series, The Outtakes revisits her prior photoshoots to recover alternative shots that were originally rejected.

Vestits de Ceba
Toni Vidal (Menorca, 1934) is a photographer with a longstanding career, an artist of photography who has developed a body of work of great expressive beauty resolved with a great command of the technique.Since he began, sixty years ago, he was a portraitist, portraits produced with delicacy and far removed from the album snap, portraits that capture the underlying argument beyond that of the image. First it was people, and soon also rocks, rural architecture and plant-life.The result of this later work is the book Vestits de ceba, where Toni Vidal presents the results of twenty years' work consisting of turning mundane matter into poetic matter, in this case the onion and the most external of the leaves that protect the bulb, those that botanists call tunics, and that is where the title comes from, dressed. This visual and expressive metamorphosis that the photographer offers us is strengthened with the collaboration of more than twenty poets who have provided Toni Vidal with their poetic creations expressly for his "Vestits", such as Montserrat Abell籀, Narc穩s Comadira, Jos矇 Corredor-Matheos, Miquel Desclot or the late Joan Brossa, Maria Merc癡 Mar癟al, Joan Perucho, Jordi Sarsanedas, Josep Palau i Fabre and Yael Languella. This book also serves as homage.In Catalan, Spanish, English & German

Raymond Depardon: Desert
The African desert in black and white as seen by Raymond Depardon through 60 years of reportage, photography series and film shootsSince his first assignment as a young photojournalist in Algeria in 1960, Raymond Depardon (born 1942), now a member of Magnum Photos, has felt a deep and intimate attachment to the Sahara Desert and the region's inhabitants. His photographic and cinematographic eye was particularly drawn to the different cultural events in Chad, from its civil war to Oueddei's accession to power and the filming of Un homme sans l'Occident (2002). His reports also took him on the road with Tuareg refugees in Mali and Paris-Dakar pilots in Libya and Niger; and he crossed all of these countries and more to produce his films Empty Quarter (1984) and La Captive du d矇sert (1989). Spanning 11 countries in total, Desert is the ultimate tribute to the people and landscapes that have accompanied Depardon's career for over 60 years.
Phototextualities
How are photographs understood as narratives? In this book twenty-two original critical essays tackle this overarching question in a series of case studies moving chronologically across the history of photography from the 1840s to the twenty-first century. The contributors explore the intersections of photography with history, memory, autobiography, time, death, mapping, the discourse of Orientalism, digital technology, and representations of race and gender. The essays range in focus from the role of photographic images in the memorialization of the Holocaust, the Argentine "Dirty Warm," and Japanese American internment camps through Man Ray's classic image "Noire et blanche" and Nan Goldin's "The Ballad of Sexual Dependency" to the function of family albums in nineteenth-century England and America.
The Forms of Silence
Sam Lee (also known as Sam L. Street) is a contemporary street photographer based in Amsterdam. His work captures the quiet poetry of everyday life-fleeting, unguarded moments found both in the streets of his hometown and while traveling through other cities. In his new book, The Forms of Silence: Street Photography, Sam continues his search for rare moments when the ordinary transforms into something quietly profound. The project began with a small camera and long walks through city streets-capturing fleeting instances where light and shadow converse.In 2024, one of his photographs was selected for Tribute to Saul Leiter: Early Color at Belgrade Photo Month. The following year, he received the Silver Award in the international reFocus Awards for abstract street photography, and his work appeared alongside Tatsuo Suzuki in Street Photography France (Edition 11, 2025).Author of Street Level: Poems from the Street (2023) and a member of Street Photography France, Sam lectures Theology of Migration at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, where he earned a PhD in theology. He also holds a Master's degree in Development Sociology from Leiden University, specializing in Japanese society, culture, religion, and migration.As a sociologist and theologian, Sam's professional life often unfolds at the intersection of human vulnerability and resilience. Street and urban photography became a refuge from this intensity-offering moments of stillness, quiet observation, and unexpected beauty. Drawn to the subtle transformations of the city-rain turning streets into living paintings, fallen leaves scattering like soft gestures of affection-this book is not presented as a declaration of mastery, but as a record of a search: a personal attempt to listen for stillness in a world that rarely stops shouting.
Bertha Alyce
Gay Block began photographing her mother, Bertha Alyce, in 1973 and continued until Bertha Alyce's death resulting from a stroke in 1991. This collection of Block's photographs (sections of which involve nudity) presents her complicated, and at times difficult, relationship with her mother and a mother-daughter quest for healing. This intensely personal and intimate account could easily be a reflection of any family today. Essays by Eugenia Parry, author of Crime Album Stories: Paris 1886-1902, and Kathleen Stewart Howe, curator of the University of New Mexico Museum, accompany the photographs. To complete the presentation, the award-winning DVD "Bertha Alyce" is included (28 minutes in length).

Mark Klett has been photographing the American West for nearly twenty-five years. He directed the Rephotographic Survey Project in the late 1970s, which located and rephotographed the sites of images made by William Henry Jackson, Timothy O'Sullivan, and other photographers surveying the West in the late nineteenth century. Klett has also published several books of his own work.Using his travels in the Nevada desert with Mark Klett and his current rephotographic team as the starting point, William Fox offers here an examination of the history of photography in the American West and of Klett's role in documenting the landscape. Like the story of photography itself, this is a multilayered narrative. Part historical overview, part travel journal, part biographical study of Klett, View Finder explores the evolution of our view of the land from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day. Fox looks at the legacy left by the likes of Ansel Adams, Edward Weston, and Robert Adams. And in focusing on the work of Mark Klett in the last quarter century, William Fox reflects upon the meaning of the landscape at the beginning of the millennium. Because Klett's work has been so closely connected to the great photographic surveys of the 1870s, and because he has been so influential to a new generation of photographers, his is the ideal viewpoint from which to measure our changing approach to the American space.
Shelter from the Storm
The second volume in the New Mexico Magazine Photo Series features the photography of Kirk Gittings.This compact, beautiful collection of many of the best of Gittings' photographs will excite all who love New Mexico. His is a magnificent oeuvre, from photographs of the ruins at Chaco Canyon to the charming chapels of northern New Mexico. His images capture the rich detail of architectural interiors as well as the sleek exteriors of the state's most contemporary buildings. Author Gussie Fauntleroy organizes and introduces Gittings' images in the context of New Mexico's shelters and sanctuaries, tracing the influence of the state's earliest structures through to its most modern edifices.Fauntleroy writes, "There is a coherence in Gittings' sensibility, vision, and style that runs through both his commercial and fine art photography. From ancient to ultra-modern, the architecture of New Mexico--rooted in the earth, graced by the craftsman's hand, and offering a sense of continuity in materials and form--has much to tell about who we have been and who we are."Kirk Gittings's work has appeared in numerous publications including Architectural Digest, View Camera Magazine, Sunset, Su Casa, Art in America, Santa Fe Trends and, for many years, New Mexico Magazine. He has made New Mexico his home for forty-five years.
Wonderland
Called a poet of the visual image, Eduardo Fuss has photographed in his native Argentina, Spain, and all across North America. However, the Bisti Wilderness in northwest New Mexico, near Farmington, has inspired his most striking photographs. In 1966, Fuss settled in the United States in Seattle, Washington. He soon traveled across his newly adopted country, working in New York and Connecticut as a painter and curator. In the late 1970s, he returned to the West, traveling through New Mexico, a land that had been instilled in his childhood memory by John Ford westerns and an Ansel Adams photograph of the moon hanging over a village called Hernandez. He bought a camera to capture the light and shadow and mountains of New Mexico.He found the Bisti Wilderness irresistible. Once, when he was there to shoot, high clouds formed. When a thin line of empty sky appeared on the horizon, he set up his equipment. "Suddenly a shaft of light appeared, the clouds providing a tremendously black background. I got two rolls of incredible, vibrant pictures. Mostly I just work with what is there--rarely is nothing there. Once you start looking, you find different ways to do things."Throughout his career Eduardo has used natural light, one camera, a Canon, and one film, Fuji Velvia ASA 50, to take his photographs. His artistry comes with patience, with waiting for the shot. Lately he has been excitedly exploring the possibilities of combining his transparencies with computer capabilities to make sure his prints reflect what he saw, what he perceives as the emotions of the earth itself.

Preserving Greatness
Through more than 200 extraordinary photographs, discover the beauty, fragility, and timeless wonder of Great Salt Lake as it teeters on the brink. As Great Salt Lake began to recede at an alarming rate, photographer Chris Carlson felt compelled to document this extraordinary natural wonder before it changed forever. He dedicated nearly four years to capturing its beauty on its shores, in its waters, and from the air. The result is Preserving Greatness, a comprehensive collection of stunning photography that immortalizes the essence of the Western Hemisphere's largest terminal saline lake. Carlson's perspective brings to life the dynamic interplay of light and shadow, the intricate details and textures of the lake, and the diverse wildlife that call this extraordinary place home. From the tranquil, reflective waters at dawn to the fiery hues of sunset, Carlson's images invite us to explore the Great Salt Lake in all its grandeur. Preserving Greatness also delves into the vibrant industry that has developed around the lake, from mineral extraction to brine shrimp harvesting, highlighting the need for a better balance between human activity and natural preservation. These photographs, filled with both the beauty and fragility of Great Salt Lake, can inspire us to support efforts to protect this unparalleled natural wonder for future generations.
