Araki
  • Paperback with flaps
Subjects range from poetic scenes of old Tokyo to modern Japanese sub-culture, from sensual close-ups of exotic flowers to erotic photographs of kimono-clad women bound in rope. This compact book surveys and reflects Araki’s extraordinary breadth of work, from the shocking to the sublime.

Peter Beard
  • Paperback with flaps
Peter Beard was twenty-four years old when he moved to Kenya, where he built up an exceptional body of work. His images of wild animals such as crocodiles and elephants, and of the land in all its purity and its wildness, are a huge collage of his experiences. Together with his photographic journals, they show that Peter Beard is unique among contemporary photographers.

Guy Bourdin
  • Paperback with flaps
Bourdin’s formal daring and the narrative power of his images exceeded the bounds of conventional advertising photography. Shattering expectations and questioning boundaries, he set the stage for a new kind of fashion photography.

Bill Brandt
  • Paperback with flaps
Bill Brandt’s photographs are imbued with strangeness and mystery, with a Surrealist touch, with rich connotations.

Lewis Carroll
  • Paperback with flaps

André Kertész
  • Paperback with flaps
André Kertész is one of the figures who shaped modern photography. From the First World War onwards, his independent spirit led him to practise an art based on spontaneity and sincerity, seeking out the chance moments that ‘capture the true nature of things.’

Josef Koudelka
  • Paperback with flaps
Before the beginning of his exile, Koudelka had already produced two works of great importance. One documented the Prague Spring, while the other, on gypsies, could almost have been an ethnological study had its images not been charged with so much emotion. Unknown in 1970, he has risen to become one of the most powerful photographers of the day.

Jacques Henri Lartigue
  • Paperback with flaps
Lartigue (1894-1986) was given his first camera in 1902 and soon began to fill album after album with photographs of family and friends. The photographs collected here – of car and bicycle races, early aeroplanes, enormous kites – radiate the intimacy, humour and exuberance he brought to his art.

Magnum Photos
  • Paperback with flaps
Magnum owes its reputation to the talent of its members, who have never swerved from the principles of its founders: solidarity and respect for individuality. What unites all of these photographers, however, is their understanding of journalism and the warmly human gaze that they cast upon the world.

Man Ray
  • Paperback
One of the most famous artists of the 20th century, a dadaist and pioneer of Surrealism, Man Ray (1890–1976) became involved with photography in 1914. He was soon experimenting with different processes – solarization, negative images, multiple exposures – and in 1921 he created the 'rayograph' by exposing objects placed on to photosensitive material.
