Jim Wyman is the last full-time resident on a one-lane, dirt, dead-end road at the tip of a long peninsula in the middle of a very large lake in northern Vermont. He was born and raised in the foothills of the Longfellow Range of the Appalachian Mountains in western Maine. Never having lived more than 50 miles away from 45 degrees north latitude, he has grown to appreciate the texture of the woods, fields, and hills of Northern New England, and the myriad of colors-ranging from the cold black and white of winter to the light-filled prism of a hardwood forest in fall.In an effort to capture and share his mind's eye view of this beauty, Jim studied film photography and quickly realized he was allergic to darkroom chemicals. Then came digital photography. As a published poet, Jim admired the work of Ann Atwood and her gift for combining poetry with photography. It was then he began to experiment with the possibility of blending his poetry with his photography using digital photographic applications and techniques. His intention was to meld the visual impact of New England landscape photography with the mind's eye view-the poem. This book is the result of his efforts.

A deeply moving and brilliantly idiosyncratic visual book of days by the National Book Award-winning author of Just Kids and M Train. More than 365 images chart Smith's singular aesthetic - inspired by her wildly popular InstagramIn 2018, without any plan or agenda for what might happen next, Patti Smith posted her first Instagram photo: her hand with the simple message "Hello Everybody!" Known for shooting with her beloved Land Camera 250, Smith started posting images from her phone including portraits of her kids, her radiator, her boots, and her Abyssinian cat, Cairo. Followers felt an immediate affinity with these miniature windows into Smith's world, photographs of her daily coffee, the books she's reading, the graves of beloved heroes - William Blake, Dylan Thomas, Sylvia Plath, Simone Weil, Albert Camus. Over time, a coherent story of a life devoted to art took shape, and more than a million followers responded to Smith's unique aesthetic in images that chart her passions, devotions, obsessions, and whims. Original to this book are vintage photographs: anniversary pearls, a mother's keychain, and a husband's Mosrite guitar. Here, too, are never-before-seen photos of life on and off the road, train stations, obscure cafés, a notebook always nearby. In wide-ranging yet intimate daily notations, Smith shares dispatches from her travels around the world.With 365 photographs, taking you through a single year, A Book of Days is a new way to experience the expansive mind of the visionary poet, writer, and performer. Hopeful, elegiac, playful - and complete with an introduction by Smith that explores her documentary process - A Book of Days is a timeless offering for deeply uncertain times, an inspirational map of an artist's life.

Since 2000, computer searches are leading to develop systems capable of recognising and interpreting human emotions. Clément Lambelet gets interested in process of facial automatic recognition and reflects upon its generalisation regarding to its development in every social media (Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat). For the book Happiness is the only true emotion, he worked on a panel of portraits given by the Pain Express Set from Stirling University in Scotland, he selected one emotion per person, reframed images and saved only the face. The artist manipulated each photograph and worked on its materiality to get more expressive images. These portraits become a vector of emotion. Each picture is then submitted to the Microsoft Cognitive Emotion API challenging the accuracy of these systems. The Emotion API only recognises Happiness with certitude.
On March 6th 1984 miners at Cortonwood Colliery in Yorkshire went on strike. Six days later, on March 12th, NUM President, Arthur Scargill, made the strike official across Britain. And so began the UK's biggest strike since the General Strike of 1928. It ran for almost a year until March 1985 - a year of bitter conflict between the miners and Margaret Thatcher and her government and marked the end of the mining era in Britain. 24 year-old Michael Kerstgens was studying photography in Germany at the time. But he had strong links with South Wales having been born in Llanelli and spending his early years there. His father had also spent twelve years working in South Wales for an engineering company involved with the mining industry. As a sixteen year old Gerstgens took a summer job at the company's Swansea office. He also experienced the underground life of the miners at Cynheidre Colliery. It's not surprising therefore that once Kerstgens heard about the strike he went to South Wales to find out what was going on and to start what would be his first major photography project. Kertsgens' friends and contacts enabled him access to much that was closed off to the press and when he later moved on to Yorkshire he lived with the family of a striking miner whose wife, Marsha Marshall, was one of the leading lights of Woman Against Pit Closures (WAPC). He even met Arthur Scargill. The resultant photographs offer a powerful insight into what was a brutal strike that tore a rift through British society, entire mining communities, and even individual families.
The Victorian and Edwardian periods saw the development of the steam locomotive in Britain from a comparatively simple machine to a powerful main line express capable of speeds of a hundred miles an hour. The book starts with an introduction dealing with the main line of development and that is followed by a picture section with over 190 photographs. Each illustration has an extended caption giving details of the engine and its history. The material is arranged geographically, starting with the railways of southern England and ending with Irish railways. The Channel Islands, the Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man are also included, and there is a section on English light railway. The photographs are all of the locomotives in their working days, many showing them in action on both passenger and goods trains. This splendid collection shows the rich diversity of Britainâ¿s railways and how different companies and their engineers produced engines of great individuality. This is a book that will be enjoyed by all lovers of the golden age of steam railways.
This book is a comprehensive history of all the 0-6-0 tender locomotives built by the Great Western Railway or by railways absorbed by the GWR from the very earliest broad gauge engines designed by Daniel Gooch to the Collett 2251 class of the 1930s some of which were still under construction at nationalisation. It includes the Joseph Armstrong â¿Standard Goodsâ¿ and the famous Dean Goods, many of which served overseas in the two world wars.

"I've been photographing my daughter and nieces for a decade. There's something sacred about the lives of girls, and their innocent, confident relationships to themselves, their world and one another is gravitational. Between them is an intimate and spiritual knowledge, both ordinary and extraordinary, and I aim to capture the brilliance of their communion. I hope when they look back on this work, they'll see their beauty, and their devotion to each other, and find themselves here, in this work we made together, reflected with love." - Kristen Joy Emack Kristen Emack documents the moments of tenderness and kinship between her daughter and her cousins as they navigate childhood, bringing up social and racial issues rooted in the visual representation of our world.
- As the final part of photographer Yang Yankang's Faith Trilogy, Star and Moon is of great significance. The three themes are interconnected and complementary, reflecting the core of the creator's search for creativity through photography: humanity and love. The photographer uses classic images to interpret and understand people of faith, while also exploring the ideas behind humanistic photography- Yang Yankang has been awarded China's Most Influential Photographic Figures three times. The publication of Star and Moon is an important addition to China's documentary photography, as well as a record of and testimony to our timesStar and Moon presents the daily life of the Hui people and expresses a kind of "emptiness" that transcends time and meaning. Lonely, mysterious, quiet and elegant, the simple images are like a faded postcard, bringing a deep Zen feeling to the heart. At first glance, the images of Star and Moon are plain and seemingly picturesque. However, if you sit quietly for a moment and feel the breath conveyed by the black and white shadows, you will experience a heavy breath running through it, adsorbing the viewer's eyes tightly, following the photographer's lens in the cycle of the stars and the moon, experiencing the destiny of the Islamic nation together. Yang Yankang expands the scope of experimental exploration of the language of modern Chinese photography, and creates a revelatory way of perceiving the art of practical photography. His works on the three major religions have historically placed them in a prominent position in the history of modern Chinese art, and he has become one of the leading photographic artists in China and even in the world.

"EVOLUX - Centro Polifunzionale di Fotografia di Domenico Fornarelli" è lieta di presentare la mostra di arte fotografica "Dualità" aprendo le porte della galleria all'autore Giuseppe Q. Lupoli che è stato protagonista di esposizioni artistiche a livello locale ed internazionale, nel cui storico delle prime esibizioni si annovera la Fondazione Amedeo Modigliani.La mostra si terrà a Bari in Via Piave 62 al piano terra dal 20 al 27 Gennaio 2024 e presenterà due collezioni: "Vegan's Models" e "Tout à Paris".Le due collezioni presentate sembrano apparentemente dotate di differente identità poiché appartengono a due generi, processi e linguaggi differenti. Infatti, da un lato l'autore non fornisce risposte, ma pone domande nel sistema consumistico; dall'altro cattura istantanee e fascinose atmosfere di un'elegante città senza tempo.A ben vedere, in realtà, i due progetti sono unitari e complementari, la cui chiave di lettura è concettuale, rendendo lo spettatore direttamente coinvolto. Sabato 20 Gennaio 2024 alle ore 19:00 si terrà il vernissage della mostra con un buffet ed un rinfresco per la presentazione di tutti i protagonisti coinvolti e si invita alla partecipazione.Nei giorni successivi sarà possibile visionare le opere con un'eventuale conversazione con l'autore su richiesta.Sabato 27 Gennaio 2024 alle ore 19:00 si terrà il finissage, in cui si ringrazieranno tutti coloro che hanno voluto partecipare.
