Big Sky: Wild West Panorama
A personal celebration of the American West by one of its finest photographers and authors. Distilled from more than two decades of exploration, Tim Fitzharris' Big Sky captures beautiful panoramas rarely matched in majesty and diversity. Big Sky includes tinted canyons, cactus-studded deserts, ice-capped mountains, rumpled badlands, the misty beaches of the Pacific and a limitless expanse of prairie wildflowers. These are images that reflect the still heart of America's native wilderness. Fitzharris opens Big Sky with personal observations on photographing the American West and then presents a retrospective of his photographs, organized by region: High Plains Canyon lands Rocky Mountains Sierra Nevada Southern deserts Pacific coast. For each of these six sections there is an introduction to the landscape, followed by 12 plates for a total of 72 panoramas. ......

Dante's Paradiso Marcus Sanders
With the publication of Dante's Paradiso , Sandow Birk and Marcus Sanders complete their literary and artistic achievement—the retelling of The Divine Comedy in contemporary words and images. Hailed as "inspired" by the The London Review of Books , Birk and Sanders's adaptation of Dante's classic work is true to the spirit of the original and is as acerbic and shockingly funny today as in thirteenth-century Italy. With a text that incorporates modern slang and references to anachronistically recent public figures, Birk and Sanders pay tribute to Dante's linguistic approach and clever politics. Birk's striking spin on Gustave DorA©'s famous engravings accompany the cantos. Together they lend the timeless poem a postmodern edge. A major retrospective of all of Birk's illustrations and paintings for the trilogy will be held at the San Jose Museum of Art in August 2005 in tribute to a masterpiece for our times....

Jazz Age Beauties: The Lost Collection of Ziegfeld Photographer Alfred Cheney Johnston Robert Hudovernik
Despite Prohibition, the '20s was the decade of jazz, flappers and hip flasks. While some took their vote and joined the Woman's Christian Temperance Movement, others, well, took liberties. Compiled here for the first time are more than 200 publicity stills and photos of some of America's first "It" girls—the silent film-era starlets who paved the way for the cacophony of Monroes and Madonnas to follow. Accompanying these iconic images are the stories behind them, including accounts from surviving Ziegfeld Girls, as well as ads featuring them that helped perpetuate the allure of It girl glamour. When rare and striking portraits of these women surfaced on the internet in 1995, author Robert Hudovernik began researching their source. What he discovered was the work of one of the first "star makers" identified most with the Ziegfeld Follies, Alfred Cheney Johnston. Johnston, a member of New York's famous Algonquin Round Table who photographed such celebrities as Mary Pickford,......

Looking At Los Angeles Jane Brown, Craig Krull
Loved, hated, revered, scorned, real, imagined: this is Los Angeles. Looking at Los Angeles is a fascinating journey into the center of the city's heart and soul. Pictured within its pages is a Los Angeles of powerful dreams and startling realities.

Homage to the Himalayas
Those who believe an unfathomable experiential chasm exists between the West and the East would do well to consult Olivier FA¶llmi's photographs. In this remarkable collection, FA¶llmi demonstrates that the distance between cultures, no matter how great hysically, is one of perception only. Once the official photographer of the Dalai Lama, FA¶llmi has been training his lens on the Himalayas for more than 25 years. Here he captures the essence of the region and its people as no one else could-its dizzyingpeaks, treacherous climate, and spiritual serenity. Images of Buddhist holy places are counterposed with portraits of ordinary people, their ruddy faces worn to leather by snow and wind. This is a breathtaking collection by a great artist whose subject isnothing less than our shared humanity....
