Acts of Light Nan Deane Cano
 The breathtaking images in Acts of Light are the result of John Deane's unprecedented access as a promotional photographer for the Martha Graham Dance Company. The first book to comprehensively survey Graham's dances in full color digital photography, it also features personal interviews with this new generation of Graham interpreters, who reflect on their own lives, the meaning each dance has for them personally, and the Graham technique in frank and touching style. Dancers reveal how they approach now-classic works and personalize their interpretations, coming to them with a new sensibility and unique life experiences. The 18 featured works range from the Greek cycle and biblically inspired ballets through abstract studies of tragedy and hope, considerations of loss incurred in wartime, and literary speculations like Deaths and Entrances, a recently revived work on the BrontA« sisters. Deane and Cano give special consideration to the beloved American masterwork Graham......

Heidi Specker: Im Garten Heidi Specker, Stephan MA?ller
 In her Speckergruppen series of the 1990s, Heidi Specker studied the structural principles that underlie modern architecture and how those relate to the construction of an image. There followed a body of work titled Concrete , a detailed examination of materials and their visual appearance. In her latest series, Im Garten , Specker has returned to the nature of photography and reflects on nature's relations to architecture, juxtaposing in her compositions buildings and the flora surrounding them. As seen in this book, the visual joy in Specker's photographs and her beguiling use of color recall the work of Albert Renger-Patzsch. Architecture and nature meld to form graphically composed scenes of energetic luminosity. Paperback, 9.5 x 11 in./96 pgs / 46 color....

Ilse Bing: Photography Through the Looking Glass Larisa Dryansky, Edwynn Houk
 While Frankfurt-born Ilse Bing's 1931 Self-Portrait with Leica is an icon of modern photography, her exquisite black-and-white compositions, created mostly during her years in exile in Paris and New York, have not received nearly the attention the deserve. This first-ever monograph of the photographer (1899-1998) dubbed the "Queen of the Leica" is cause for celebration on two counts: Those with an interest in Bing's work now have an authoritative source to consult; and students of the form now hav proof that Bing ranks alongside BrassaA?, Man Ray, and Henri Cartier-Bresson in the pantheon of 20th-century avant-garde photography. This book, based largely on unpublished material from Bing's personal archive, combines biography with an in-depth studyof her work in its historical context, creating a portrait of the artist as revealing as it is overdue....

Extraordinary Women: Fantasies Revealed: 58 Women of Accomplishment Portray Hidden Dreams and Real Hopes Ilene Leventhal, Francine Levinson
 Extraordinary Women is a book about precisely that-extraordinary women, though not in the roles we usually see them. Each of the 58 prominent women in this insightful book was asked what they dreamed of becoming when they were children; they were hen photographed in that role. Thus, former secretary of state Madeline Albright can be seen as a chess champion, actress Linda Carter as an Olympic athlete, gymnast Dominic Dawes as a justice of the Supreme Court, feminist Betty Friedan as a mystery writr. But it's not just about the pictures. It's also about the interviews, in which each woman discusses what she'd hoped to achieve as a child and what she has achieved as an adult. Featuring an eclectic array of talented women from journalist Ann Crry to star soprano Denyce Graves to activist Dorothy Height, Extraordinary Women is an original and inspirational testament to women who helped change our world in ways they themselves could never have dreamed possible.......
