Featuring more than 200 intriguing images taken by space probes
travelling billions of kilometres from Earth, The Solar System is
an exhilarating exploration of the mysteries of our local planetary
space. Within the span of a human lifetime, our spacecraft have
visited all eight planets of the Solar System, together with
several dwarf planets, asteroids and comets. We have mapped the
surface of Mercury and Venus in exquisite detail, landed rovers on
Mars, placed orbiters around Jupiter and Saturn, and parachuted to
the surface of Titan. Our emissaries have visited icy worlds five
billion kilometres from home and continued onwards to reach
interstellar space. The pictures and science returned by these
intrepid travellers have transformed our understanding of the Solar
System in which we live.
When you think of Paris do you picture the Eiffel Tower? The
medieval city of Notre Dame? The elegant boulevards of Baron
Haussmann? The Montmartre of Toulouse- Lautrec? The grandeur of the
Louvre? The Art Nouveau of the Paris Metro? The Grand Projets of
Francois Mitterrand? Or...? Yes, there is just so much beauty to
Paris. In 150 striking images, Paris celebrates the French capital,
from its world-famous landmarks to evocative alleyways and corners
that might surprise you. You may have heard, for instance, about
the Paris catacombs and sewers that you can visit, but did you know
about La Petite Ceinture, a disused 19th century railway line that
circumnavigates the inner city? From the medieval marvels of
Sainte-Chapelle to the 1970s Pompidou Centre to the latest pop-up
beaches beside the Seine, the book explores a great many sides to
the city. In collecting these images of the city today, we come to
understand something of its history - from the executions that took
place at the Place de la Concorde during the Revolution to the Arc
de Triomphe honouring those who served in the Revolutionary and
Napoleonic Wars to the skyscrapers of La Defense. Presented in a
landscape format and with captions explaining the story behind each
entry, Paris is a stunning collection of images celebrating the
world's most romantic city.

This is the collection of interviews with artists developed in two
phases; first researched from 1988-92 and published in "Cv
Journal"; then as an anthology, "Interviews with the Artists:
Elements of Discourse", (editions in 1993/1996/2001/2007). A second
phase was researched from January to July 2010, published as
"Interviews-Artists: Volume Two". "I-A V3" is published in
September 2011. "Cv/VAR 50" publishes an interview with the artist
Helen Chadwick recorded at her Beck Road studio in 1989. It
explores the body-action-photographic works distilled in
installations such as "Ego Geometria Sum" and "Of Mutability", and
the cromalin prints of 1989: "Viral Landscapes".
