Books > Arts & Architecture > Photography & photographs
A picture should tell a story. It should open doors to a mysterious
journey of thought by letting its viewers forget the world around
them for a brief moment. David Drebin is known for infusing his
photographic masterpieces with compelling narratives. Although each
of his works is marked by creative uniqueness, his signature style
puts a distinct stamp under each image - a romantic melancholy with
a hint of eroticism that elegantly invites you into an exciting
fantasy. In his new illustrated book Flirting With Danger, the
renowned star photographer now presents particularly sensational
moments of this theme. David Drebin creates a dream world in a
cinematographic way, which, thanks to his hyper-realistic style,
seems so lifelike that the viewer feels part of the scenery.
Perhaps it is this twist that makes his artworks so suspenseful, or
perhaps it is the way he skilfully stages his protagonists. Each of
his pictures leaves the impression of its own dramaturgy, which
only stimulates the mental cinema. What will happen next? What
happened before? The artist's new coffee-table book is now
dedicated to the fascinating attraction of the forbidden and the
dangerous. Intense snapshots show approaches to the exciting sides
of life. The result is a book in a class of its own. In an
extra-large format, the artist's pictures can achieve maximum
effect and thus skilfully bring the emotions of the viewers to
their peak.Â

"If you're looking for ideas, or planning a bucket-list adventure,
you'll find page after page of sepia-tinted inspiration in the
revised edition of teNeues' Nostalgic Journeys." - Irish
Independent The seaside or the mountains? Today's most important
vacation planning question never came up in days long past. Both
seemed unappealing and nearly inaccessible. It wasn't until the
invention of the railroad that previously sparsely visited and
overlooked areas opened up, and Thomas Cook, the tour operator and
founder of modern tourism, was born. Fishing villages became
sophisticated seaside resorts, remote mountain areas became
destinations for hiking and skiing enthusiasts, and inns became
grand hotels. Nostalgic Journeys takes you on a journey back in
time, through the last two centuries: Ride the Orient Express to
the East, cross the Atlantic on huge ocean liners, travel Route 66
through the United States, and break the sound barrier aboard the
Concorde. As you browse through the pages of this book, you will
get the idea that travelling was, and can be, more than just being
stuck in a traffic jam or passing through numerous security checks.
It can be a stylish and sometimes adventurous way to explore the
world and return home feeling transformed by your many and varied
experiences. Bon Voyage! Text in English and German.
