Amanda de Cadenet blazes a new trail for women image makers with a hip, accessible, spirited book, offering a collection of works by young up-and-coming female photographers from all over the world who capture how young women see other women, the space around them, and themselves. In a world where young women are bombarded with overfiltered selfies and skewed perceptions of what it is to be a girl, #girlgaze is a powerful collection of deeply authentic images that show how young women photographers perceive the world. The book weaves together candid and formal photos of women living their lives: capturing their friends and loved ones; creating gorgeous portraits of the people they admire; and catching a significant moment on city streets, remote countrysides, in their war-torn countries, or intimately at home. The book includes contributions by real-world visionaries, whether in fashion or documentary photography, in front of the camera or behind it. Spirited and inspiring, #girlgaze is sure to appeal to photography fans and women of all ages.
After a career with the New York City Ballet, Mary Helen Bowers created Ballet Beautiful, a fitness and lifestyle program inspired by ballet s artistry and athleticism. Designed to give anyone a ballerina body, Bowers s targeted exercises tone and lengthen muscles, develop good posture, and teach grace in movement. Since launching in 2008, Bowers and her training have been sought after by celebrities and models (Alexa Chung, Liv Tyler, and Miranda Kerr, to name a few), as well as thousands of women across the globe through their streaming service. This book delves into the Ballet Beautiful universe, showing readers how to attain a ballerina s lean and powerful physique and graceful poise via exercises, posture lessons, wellness tips, and fashion and beauty advice that can be effortlessly incorporated into everyday routines. The book features original images by the legendary photographers Inez and Vinoodh coupled with technical photographs illustrating the Ballet Beautiful workout and lifestyle. A refreshing antidote to traditional fitness programs and restrictive diets, this book is a stylish and instructional guide to transforming your body and life though ballet.
From El Lissitzky, Kurt Schwitters and Bruno Munari to Paul Chan, Lawrence Weiner and Richard Prince, modern artists have found ingenious ways of reinventing and reimagining books for children. With its expanded possibilities for visual play and storytelling, the children's book as a form in itself has been increasingly explored by contemporary artists. Now, "Visionaire 59: Fairytale" presents a mini-library of children's stories by contemporary artists and photographers in collaboration with writers. Ranging in themes from the delightful to the philosophical, and packaged in a luxurious slipcase, "Visionaire"'s newest issue offer a meditation on innocence and childlike creativity, and makes an ideal gift for readers of all ages. Founded in 1991 as a collection of artwork and images hand-assembled by a group of friends in a one-room apartment in New York City, "Visionaire" has since grown into one of the most highly sought-after fashion and art publications in the world. The "New Yorker" has characterized "Visionaire" magazine as a "creative playground for leading designers, artists, photographers and thinkers," adding "it's a gallery in print. A cabinet of irresistible curiosities. A daring iconoclast dressed to thrill."
