This is a superb collection of intimate and revealing self-portraits by renowned Spanish photographer Alberto Garcia-Alix. Alberto Garcia-Alix is considered one of the finest Spanish photographers of the 21st century. Best known for his striking black and white portraits, Garcia-Alix has also captured self-portraits in nearly all his projects. What is telling about these images is that, while some are not traditional self-portraits as they don't feature the artist himself, instead showing everything from city streets to loved pets, they all capture some of the essence that has made Garcia-Alix one of today's most respected photographers. Autorretrato brings together these self-portraits - many of which are previously unpublished - providing an intimate and revealing look at Garcia-Alix's continued evolution as an artist.

Alberto Garcia-Alix is considered one of the finest, and most important Spanish photographers of the 21st century. Garcia-Alix is best known for his striking black and white portraits which he considers as a form of both personal and social documentary. This revised and updated PhotoBolsillo edition introduces readers to Garcia-Alix's oeuvre through the photographers own point of view.

Chus Bures creates miracles. Each piece of jewellery that emerges from his workshop boasts a complex genesis, stemming from an intersection between his genius-level thought processes and his maverick lifestyle. From exploring the versatility of buttons, to accentuating the geometric planes of the human body (Infinity Lines, 1990), and using minerals to emulate and exaggerate human features (seen in the striking 'Mae Nam' Collection of 2000), Bures' work is always perplexing, always stimulating, and always innovative. He refuses to be cowed by convention, and delights in challenging his clients and models. The bodily focus of his work makes every piece a startling, and often uncomfortable, insight into humanity. Bures may be a maestro of metal - the gauzy chainmail-esque veils in his Crochet collection, 2000, attest to that. Yet he has mastered the emotional dimensions of his jewellery as well as its physical properties. The relationship between his pieces and the people who collect and cherish them is essential to his artistic praxis. In Chus Bures, Portraits & Jewellery (2016), this is realised through a series of intense portraits by Antoine d'Agata, Alberto Garcia-Alix, and Andres Serrano. These pictures reveal a transgressive melding of jewel and subject: man becomes metal and metal becomes man. Watch ideas take on physical form, and immerse yourself in Bures' world of wearable art.
