This is a stunning collection of images portraying Gypsy people from throughout renowned photographer Pierre Gonnord's career. Large-scale, highly detailed, and dramatically lit, with dark, blank backgrounds; noted French photographer Pierre Gonnord's images recall the paintings of Goya, Caravaggio, Velasquez and other old masters. Gonnord's subjects belong to communities on the margins of conventional society - homeless urban youth, gypsies, tattooed Japanese gang members, and others. Gonnord's art transforms each into a vision of compelling, unexpected beauty and dignity. Face to face with the viewer, these evocative, eloquent portraits are intended, says the artist, "to narrate unique, remarkable stories about our era. Sometimes hostile, almost always fragile, and very often wounded behind the opacity of their masks, they represent social realities and sometimes another concept of beauty." This magnificently illustrated volume brings together images of Gypsy people - the artists most portrayed social group - captured by Gonnord throughout his career.

This is a collection of 20 previously unpublished drawings from one of 20th-century Spain's most celebrated artists. Juan Munoz (1953-2001) was an internationally celebrated Spanish sculptor, draughtsman and painter. Educated at the Central School of Art and Design in London and the Pratt Graphic Design Centre in New York, Munoz is known for his unsettling sculptures of individuals or groups placed in architectural settings. He described himself as a 'storyteller' and created sculptures in a 'narrative' manner, which broke with tradition. This artist's sketchbook consists of 20 original and previously unpublished drawings by Juan Munoz, produced by the author in 1992. The drawings are based on the short story An Outpost of Progress by Joseph Conrad, included originally in the collection Tales of Unrest (1898).
