Kjetil Berge er ikke opptatt av å tolke livet eller gi betrakteren trøst i kunstboken NearFar. I fotografier som er ute av fokus og med upresise komposisjoner lager han likevel skarpe observasjoner om livet. Skal man oppsummere boken må det være at du er ikke alene. Det er andre som har det som deg; gode dager, vonde dager, og dager du bare skal lese avisen. Kjetil Berge er en norsk billedkunstner som bor på Vestvågøy og i London. Boken presenterer åtte nyskrevede essays av blant annet Tacita Dean, Angela de la Cruz og Tore Rem.
This book brings together a selection of Newton's fashion catalog work from as early as 1962 through 2003 and his last editorial photographs for US and Italian Vogue - all work he made as a "gun for hire." The client list includes: BiBA, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Versace, Thierry Mugler, Blumarine, "Italian Vogue", "US Vogue", "German Vogue", Villeroy & Boch, Bikini Calendar for "Sportsmagazine", "Absolute Vodka". His work is so powerful, so striking, that it defies categorization. In refusing to call his work "art," Newton leaves us free to do so, and judging from the amount of museum and gallery shows that have featured his work, it is clear that the option has been widely exercised.

A photographic journey through the origins and mysteries of a natural treasure of the West.
A luminous photographic consideration of atmospheric phenomena, visual perception and life on Earth, from the author of Des OiseauxIn Cloud Physics, American photographer Terri Weifenbach explores the vital interconnection of our planet's clouds and the intimate forms and textures of its biological life. The backbone of this work is a series of photographs (for which she received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2015) made at an American research facility used for the study and measurement of clouds, their origin, structure, particles and solar relationships. The exotic instruments she portrays are designed to express ephemeral atmospheric phenomena as sets of numeric data, yet Weifenbach's camera (and her way of seeing) renders our organic terrestrial world as an unquantifiable mystery. The vibrant scenes of her wide-ranging images -- tiny variations of light, humidity, fire, lightning; iridescent mists and vapors; glimpses of the animal kingdom and the vegetal world -- are like myths-within-myths unfolding throughout the book, against a backdrop of endless weather events. In an original essay, Luce Lebart examines Weifenbach's work in the historical contexts of visual art and environmental science.Terri Weifenbach (born 1957) is an American photographer based in Paris. She has taught at the Corcoran College of Art + Design and American University (both in Washington, DC). Her work has been exhibited internationally for over 15 years and is in numerous collections, including the Sir Elton John Photography Collection and the Museum Ludwig in Koln, Germany. She has published more than 10 books, with presses such as Nazraeli and Atelier EXB.
