Many photographers have been intrigued with the baffling distortions, both subtle and disquieting, that can occur when the camera 'captures' the real world. This book presents essays that raise awareness of the interpretive nature of the lens and the interpolative nature of the medium.

There are over 150 tiny historic doors (buchette del vino) hiding in plain sight in the city streets of Florence. Called wine doors (or wine windows) in English, these little portals allowed the noble families of Florence to sell their agricultural products directly to the common citizens in the era of Cosimo I de Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany. This award-winning photography collection brings these long-forgotten elements of daily life to the present day and demonstrates the passage of time where they have been repurposed as restaurant menu shelves, door intercoms, and letterboxes. Some have become an evolving canvas for creative graffiti artists. This book captures a glimpse of the undiscovered history of Florence, actual doorways that have nearly vanished amongst the distractions of a modern tourist mecca.

A landmark biography of a singular and important Australian photographer, Olive Cotton, by an award-winning writer - beautifully written and deeply moving. Winner of the 2022 Adelaide Festival Awards for Literature, Non Fiction AwardWinner of the 2020 Canberra Critics' Circle Award for BiographyWinner of the University of Queensland Non Fiction Book Award, Queensland Literary Awards 2020Winner of the Magarey Medal for Biography for 2020Longlisted for the 2020 Mark & Evette Moran Nib Literary Award 2020Olive Cotton was one of Australia's pioneering modernist photographers, whose significant talent was recognised as equal to her first husband, the famous photographer Max Dupain. Together, Olive and Max were an Australian version of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera or Ray and Charles Eames, and the photographic work they produced in the 1930s and early 1940s was bold, distinctive and quintessentially Australian. But in the mid-1940s Olive divorced Max, leaving Sydney to live with her second husband, Ross McInerney, and raise their two children in a tent on a farm near Cowra - later moving to a cottage that had no running water, electricity or telephone for many years. Famously quiet, yet stubbornly determined, Olive continued her photography despite these challenges and the lack of a dark room. But away from the public eye, her work was almost forgotten until a landmark exhibition in Sydney in 1985 shot her back to fame, followed by a major retrospective at the Art Gallery of New South Wales in 2000, ensuring her reputation as one of the country's greatest photographers. Intriguing, moving and powerful, this is Olive's story, but it is also a compelling story of women and creativity - and about what it means for an artist to try to balance the competing demands of their art, work, marriage, children and family.

A new edition of Yamamoto's much-loved photographic homage to the precarious, the delicate and the humble, with new images and a redesigned coverJapanese photographer Masao Yamamoto trained as an oil painter before discovering that photography was the ideal medium for the theme that most interested him--the ability of the image to evoke memories. Small Things in Silence surveys the 20-year career of one of Japan's most important photographers. Yamamoto's portraits, landscapes and still lifes are made into small, delicate prints, which the photographer frequently overpaints, dyes or steeps in tea. Edited and sequenced by Yamamoto himself, this volume includes images from each of the photographer's major projects--Box of Ku, Nakazora, Kawa and Shizuka--as well as installation shots of some of Yamamoto's original photographic installations, and, in this new edition, seven new images and a new cover. In the words of Yamamoto himself: "I try to capture moments that no one sees and make a photo from them. When I see them in print, a new story begins." Masao Yamamoto (born 1957) lives and works in Japan. He has published numerous books, including a previous edition of Small Things in Silence (RM/Seigensha, 2015) and Tori (Radius Books, 2016). His work is held in the collections of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the International Center of Photography, New York, and others.

Late in the 19th century, St. Andrews was discovered by a privileged few who sought a summer place by the sea. Escaping the continent's largest cities, they bought, rented, or built houses, returning year after year. The luxurious Algonquin Hotel was opened, and in a few short years a summer society was established, with Fathers of Confederation Sir Leonard Tilley and Sir Charles Tupper and the great railway builders Sir William Van Horne and Lord Shaughnessy. The "barefoot" steel tycoon Sir James Dunn and his friend Lord Beaverbrook spent their summers in St. Andrews, as did an eclectic blend of new and returning visitors, including politicians from Canada's war production minister C.D. Howe to former Prime Minister John N. Turner, and artists such as ballroom dancer Irene Castle and composer Irving Berlin. In Summers in St. Andrews, Willa Walker chronicles the lives and homes of the summer people. Drawing upon archival records and her own memories of summers past, she blends nostalgia with sharp observation to record the eccentricities and achievements of this distinctive society. First published in 1989 as No Hay Fever and a Railway, this new edition invites readers to share the excitement of summer in this remarkable seaside town.
