    Book SynopsisHungarian-born Stefan Lorant''s work as a visual and literary editor allowed him to pioneer and develop the genré of picture-based journalism at a period that saw the emergence of modern mass communications. Lorant became a guiding force on an international scale, disseminating his ideas and political knowledge throughout Europe in the late-twenties and thirties by working in Hungary, Germany, and England. His innovative layouts, his exclusive interviews and his thirst for knowledge became a familiar part of millions of everyday lives, largely through the pages of his own creations and in particular the legendary Picture Post. Eventually his sphere of influence spread to America where he introduced the concept of the pictorial biography. His vision of photography as a documentary medium inspired Life and Look magazines and paved the way for the eventual emergence of the television documentary. For this he has become recognized as the godfather of photojournalism. Lorant''s work enlighTrade ReviewStefan Lorant (1901-1997) started out as a filmmaker but later became a magazine editor in England and the US, giving Alfred Eisenstadt, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Brassai, and Andre Kertesz some of their earliest assignments in that genre. (He also was jailed by Hitler in the 1930s and wrote a memoir of the experience.) Hallett, a photographic historian who is himself a photographer, traces the pioneer's life and works, with a focus on the emergence of modern mass communication in the 20th century. * Reference and Research Book News *...a revealing biographical account of the life of the professional loner who, almost single-handedly, changed the face of European magazine publishing, long before Henry Luce dreamed up the highly successful Life picture magazine concept in the US....This neatly presented book expands on the life and foibles of a man to whom publishers, editors, photographers and the public at large owe much, because he stepped on to the photographic stage at the very time when photographers had been liberated by the advent of the 35 mm camera....Michael Hallett's biography of the godfather of photojournalism is both detailed and honest. The text is presented in short, crisp, readable chunks, which unfold Lorant's tumultuous life story in a very personal way. * Foto8 *Hallett gets across how totally fascinating Lorant was—and how impossible he could be. And he does it with a fast-moving prose in a text as full of famous names as Lorant himself could wish for. * The Independent Review: A Journal of Political Economy *The author deserves praise for garnering so much from such a tricky subjecttttt * History Of Photography, Vol. 31, No. 1 (Spring 2007) *Recommended. * CHOICE *The author deserves praise for garnering so much from such a tricky subject * History Of Photography, Vol. 31, No. 1 (Spring 2007) *Table of ContentsPart 1 Prologue Part 2 Part One: Hungary and Czechoslovakia Chapter 3 1.

  • Another Girl Another Planet

    Rizzoli Another Girl Another Planet

    Book SynopsisCelebrating the unique fashion sensibility of fearless young women and the spirit of girl power. A generation of girls grew up with Valerie Phillips’s work pinned on their bedroom walls. The self-confessed Peter Pan is famous for capturing the essence of female youth—girls who boldly unravel their individual quirks before the camera, with loads of spark and beautifully unpredictable things going on in their heads. In this personally curated volume, Phillips has selected her best work from her limited-edition, self-published books, as well as images from editorials, advertising, and music albums, featuring It Girls such as Sienna Miller, Daisy Lowe, and Florence Welch. Another Girl Another Planet gives a personal and instinctive view of the girl experience, with honest portraits of young women captured uninhibited in their unique universes. These images celebrate the exploration of personal style, the female spirit, the beauty found in idiosyncracy, and tTrade Review"While Valerie's previous books have explored the nuances and complexities of girlhood in relation to a single subject, Another Girl Another Planet is simply a feel-good compilation of all her most treasured photos." —i-D Magazine"The photographer Valerie Phillips's new book, Another Girl Another Planet, is nothing but women — from Sienna Miller and PJ Harvey to that girl on the corner — to swoon over." —W Magazine"Photographer Valerie Phillips–who has shot for the likes of i-D, Nylon, and many others– is known for her bold, edgy portraits of modern young women. The book will include images from these smaller books as well as her work in advertising, editorial, and album covers. For insight into a fully-developed photography niche, take a look at her work." —Join The Breed"There is consistency in Phillips' images: people who know her work, will easily recognise one of her pictures whether they see it on a billboard advertising sportswear or in a fashion magazine.Phillips' photographs usually feature unusual muses - models, musicians, actors, family and friends - all sharing one main thing in common, a sense of freedom and rebellion."—Irenebrination.com"In her new book, "Another Girl Another Planet," photographer Valerie Phillips looks over the last 15 years she spent photographing everyone from Instagram-famous stars to girls she met on airplanes and cafes."—VICE"It can be argued that this all pertains to Phillips style, employing a candid authenticity. . . . Distinct fashion sensibilities are celebrated, but so are emotions, acts and archetypes. As far as visual studies of a photographer's work (thus far) go, this declares Phillips as an artist with an eye for boldness and a voice that seeks to elevate her subjects."—CoolHunting.com"A visceral celebration of girls being girls and all things girly. Unapologetic, edgy, happy."—Citizens of Humanity Magazine"Besides the saturated color palette and spontaneous settings Phillips brings to her fashion-culture portraits of young women, there’s a flexible comfort zone: Her subjects dance and pout and pop bubblegum and ham it up with abandon."—American Photo

    Book SynopsisOn Christopher Street there are all kinds of sexual orientations and gender identities, endless possibilities of potential selves: transgender, transsexual, non-binary, genderqueer, femme, butch, cross-dresser, drag kings, drag queens, and many other identities that shift, adapt, and challenge our understanding of gender. This street nestled in the middle of New York City’s Greenwich Village is heralded as the birthplace of the modern LGBTQ rights movement. Today, the intersection at Christopher and Hudson Streets has been renamed “Sylvia Rivera Way,” after the pioneering trans-activist and the annual LGBTQ pride parade ends its procession on Christopher Street, where the revolution began at the Stonewall Inn.   Renowned photographer Mark Seliger, best known for his portraits of celebrities, musicians, and artists, has called the West Village home for nearly two decades. For his latest book, On Christopher Street: Transgender Stories, his curiositTrade Review"It was in the Village, on Christopher Street and the nearby piers, where many trans and queer people first shared space with others like them. For generations, these places provided mirrors for those who rarely saw reflections of themselves. . . Christopher Street is recognized as the birthplace of the modern L.G.B.T. movement. . . Mark Seliger is an award-winning photographer. His new book of photographs, On Christopher Street: Transgender Stories, will be out in October." —The New Yorker"'On Christopher Street: Transgender Stories' is a blend of portraiture as well as the commemoration of the welcoming nature of Christopher Street. . . . Defiant or in repose, these lovely folk are redefining what gender means to people who may be meeting even the idea of transgender for the first time in the pages of Mark Seliger's book. And even Christopher Street, although it is iconic globally, as an idea might be new for someone turning the pages of this book." —Edge Media Network"Consider Christopher Street . . . a collection of 70 portraits by former Rolling Stonechief photographer Mark Seliger. Seliger has lived near Christopher Street, a historic gathering place for the LGBTQ community in New York City, for over two decades and, in that time, has captured a variety of personalities and styles within the local trans community." —PublishersWeekly.com Gender Expressions: Transgender Books, 2016"I’ve always been intrigued by the life and theater of Christopher Street. I’ve noticed the photographic possibility out of the corner of my eye for the past couple of decades—an Ellis Island for freedom of expression and gender identity." —Mark Seliger, New York Observer"The photographer’s collection On Christopher Street features stories about a community that has long found acceptance and solace in the West Village." —Vanity Fair"With 74 spectacular photographs of wonderful people who identify as transgender, transsexual, non-binary, genderqueer, femme, butch, cross-dresser, drag king, or drag queen (as well as other descriptions we may not know), the book provides a unique slice of life in the neighborhood where the LGBT revolution started at the Stonewall Inn." —He Said Magazine"The end result is a collection of 74 beautiful, black and white portraits combined with their moving and deeply personal stories. They will all be included in On Christopher Street: Transgender Stories." —Out Magazine"Seliger has taken it upon himself to capture the diversity and beauty of the transgender community in the West Village in a new photography book, On Christopher Street: Transgender Stories. "Christopher Street has always had a specific theater and tone to it that separated it from the rest of the West Village," said Seliger, . . . "We’ve seen it gentrify over the last several years. As the kind of colorful, theatrical world started to shift and vanish, I thought it was important for me to spend some time over there." . . . Seliger approached as many people as he could in an effort to document the street’s changing atmosphere. In his subjects, from old to young, singles to couples and families, Seliger found a portrait of our age that won’t be forgotten."—Four Two Nine Magazine
