Jim Dine’s status as a master draughtsman is unquestioned and this book presents the best of his most recent drawings. Hello Yellow Glove opens with one of Dine’s most treasured motifs, Pinocchio. Using dense charcoal and dripping washes, Dine depicts the sinister edge to Carlo Collodi’s story and Pinocchio’s isolation in his quest to become a real boy. With similar dark layers and dissolving forms Dine also depicts botanical motifs such as the thistle and catalpa tree. In addition to these bodies of work, Hello Yellow Glove presents Dine’s portrait of Gerhard Steidl, an ambitious suite of nine drawings made by the artist in his Göttingen studio. Alongside reproductions of the drawings are photographs of Dine taken by Steidl during the sittings, which form both a candid portrait of the artist and offer a rare glimpse into his working processes. Born in 1935 in Cincinnati, Ohio, Jim Dine is a prolific painter, draughtsman, print-maker and photographer. Initially associated with the Pop movement, Dine’s career spans over forty years and his work is held in many private and public collections. His books with Steidl include Birds (2001), The Photographs, so far (2003) and Hot Dream (52 Books) (2008).

“Mark is good natured. He finds the best in most things. To explain more would too much. These are just pictures that Mark can do.” David Bailey David Bailey may be a master of the medium but he also readily accepts that photography is technologically driven. The snapshot is a part of our visual culture many photographs have been taken millions of times, with just slight variations, as the identity of the people in a family portrait. Bailey also takes such snaps, images imbued with a sense of ease and freedom yet which in his hands carry much greater weight and significance. He believes these photographs appear so easy that even Mark, his assistant, could have made them – and so this quip became the title of this, his latest book. David Bailey, born in London in 1938, is one of the most successful photographers his generation. His numerous books include Trouble and Strife, Nudes, If We Shadows, The Lady Is a Tramp and David Bailey’s Rock ’n’ Roll Heroes. Steidl published Birth of the Cool, Chasing Rainbows, Locations, Bailey’s Democracy Havana.

Unlike many photographers who maintain a strict divide between their commercial and private work, Teller has always combined the two. Indeed this merging is one reason for Teller’s progressive edge. The Keys to the House contains recent photographs of Teller’s life at and around his house in Suffolk: landscapes, portraits of family and friends. But of course Teller’s vision would not be complete without the occasional fashion figure who was entered his personal world – be it Lily Cole floating like Ophelia, or Vivienne Westwood leaning on a red Mercedes Benz. Born in 1964 in Erlangen, Germany, Juergen Teller has lived in London since 1986. His influential fashion photography has been published extensively, and solo exhibitions of his work have been held at the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain in Paris and the Kunsthalle Wien among other institutions. Teller’s books with Steidl include Louis XV (2005), Marc Jacobs Advertising 1998–2009 (2010) and Zimmermann (2010).

Robert Frank’s father, Henry, was both the proprietor of a bicycle shop in Zurich, and a keen amateur photographer. Father – Photographer makes public for the first time a selection of Henry Frank’s photographs including landscapes, family portraits, still-lifes and cityscapes. When Robert Frank immigrated to the United States in 1947, a wooden box containing his father’s stereophotographs was one of the few objects he brought with him. In 2008 that box and the fragile photographic glass plates within it were hand-escorted to Steidl in Göttingen, where they were scanned in tri-tone in preparation for this book. Designed by Robert Frank, Father – Photographer reveals Henry Frank to be both a talented photographer and a keen traveller. His pictures include snow-capped Alps and lakes in Switzerland, views of Venice, Pisa and Florence, and depictions of his family and friends including the young Robert. Henry Frank also reveals a passion for modern means of transport in images of aeroplanes, ships, hot-air balloons, and a car fair at the Grand Palais in Paris. Father – Photographer is a revelation of the unknown photographer Henry Frank, a historical photographic document of the early twentieth century, as well as a new chapter in Robert Frank’s ongoing bookmaking.
