Straight photography

US photographer Edward WESTON kept a diary in which he recorded his struggle to understand himself, society and his art. 'The Daybooks of Edward Weston' were edited by Nancy Newhall in two volumes: one for his time in Mexico and one for Californian time.

The catalog, edited by art historian Cécile Bargues traces how HAUSMANN comprehensively reflected photography in this intensive decade and developed a highly individual practice, both documentarily and lyrically, inextricably linked to his thinking & life

Overview volume from Folkwang Museum Essen on Aenne BIERMANN's work with biography. "The single object, which never stood out from the group of well-known images in its familiar surroundings, assumed a unique life on the focusing screen." (Aenne BIERMANN)

For the first time, the author, M.Stoll, outlines a theory of the photo book as a school of vision, based on the theoretical, media-specific, political and artistic context of the photo books '60 Fotos' by Aenne BIERMANN and 'Das Watt' by Alfred EHRHARDT.

This volume, 'Brett Weston: Master Photographer', is the most comprehensive overview of the life and photography of Brett WESTON. It covers the six decades of his work (1925-1986), each introduced by an essay by renowned authors such as Beaumont Newhall.
