Contrasting ultramodernist photographs taken over a thirty-year
period constitute the first book by one of the most celebrated
photographers working today. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1963, and
first coming into prominence in the early 1990s with his iconic
photographs of Donald Judd's works and architecture, Todd Eberle's
photographs document the disparate images that make up American
architecture, landscapes, and society and are united by a
minimalist aesthetic that runs through his work. Whether his
approach to a particular subject is earnest (an unfurling flag) or
kitsch (the Vegas strip), Eberle brings to his photographs a
heightened sense of precision, symmetry, and proportion. The Empire
of Space is a lavish look at Eberle's career and features many rare
and never-before-published portraits, landscapes, still lifes, and
interiors. In the spirit of Walker Evans, Eberle creates an
enduring and poetic portrait of America, the arts, and architecture
through thoughtfully contrasting and analogous photographs. This
exciting and definitive book on Eberle's illustrious legacy is sure
to rank among the most important publications to mix modernism,
minimalism, and photography.

For 200 years the Thurn und Taxis family have called the palace of
St. Emmeram home. Regarded as one of Germany's finest examples of
historicist architecture, the Regensburg residence's myriad rooms
trace centuries of distinctive styles: a Romanesque-Gothic cloister
built between the twelfth and fourteenth centuries, a
neo-Renaissance marble staircase, a number of Rococo and neo-
Rococo staterooms, and a Baroque library frescoed in 1737.
Celebrated photographer Todd Eberle captures the confluence of high
art and grand architecture within the 500-room palace to reveal the
curious tale of the Thurn und Taxis family. Complete with stately
portraits and scenes of life at St. Emmeram, this monograph offers
a glimpse into the world and glamour of one of the most important
dynasties of the European aristocracy.
