"Cuba by Korda is the first publication of the work of the Cuban photographer celebrated for taking the most famous photograph of the 20th century - his iconic portrait of Che Guevara. The photograph - Che gazing into the distance like a prophet - has been reproduced on countless T-shirts and posters around the world." "Originally published in France, this book gives an overview of Korda's extraordinary camerawork, from his first fashion photography to "Don Quixote of the Lamp Post" - a Cuban peasant sitting high above a sea of people during a rally. It includes other striking, sometimes quirky, and lesser-known photographs, such as Fidel Castro warily eyeing a tiger at the Bronx zoo; Che Guevara playing golf; Fidel Castro and Nikita Khruschev throwing snowballs at each other; Hemingway in Cuba; and Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir in conversation with Che."--BOOK JACKET.

Cuba's greatest photographer captures the spirit of the Cuban Revolution—and of Cuba itself—in unforgettable images and text. Korda’s photographs and breathtaking reminiscences capture some of the 20th-century’s greatest moments with unprecedented intimacy as no other book ever could or will. In the first weeks of 1959, Korda joined the staff of the newly created daily newspaper of Cuba, Revolución. From that moment on, Korda documented the heady early days of revolutionary Cuba. When Fidel Castro visited the United States in April 1959, Korda went with him. When Castro visited the Soviet Union in 1963 and 1964, Korda was there, documenting intimate moments with Soviet leader Nikita Kruschev’s family and appearing to show the end of the breach that had followed their country’s divergent policies during the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962. But probably Korda’s greatest moment came on March 5, 1960, during a funeral ceremony for the victims of the sabotaged French freighter La Coubre, a ship carrying arms purchased by the Cuban military. Fidel knew the attack to be the work of America’s CIA. And it altered relations between the two countries forever after. Korda was less than a dozen steps from the platform where Fidel Castro was addressing the crowd of mourners. There were foreign observers present, including Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. Che stepped forward to look over the crowd. Korda shot him through his telephoto lens, even though he was near to him. The result would turn into nothing less than one of the most enduring images of our age, though the picture would not see light of day for another year. It was first published on April 15, 1961, just before the Bay of Pigs invasion, and would only become well known when Che’s Italian publisher Gianfranco Feltrinelli printed thousands of posters of the image shortly after Che’s death.

Alberto Korda foi um dos maiores fotógrafos cubanos de todos os tempos. Tendo começado a carreira na área da moda, atraído por uma de suas principais paixões, a beleza feminina, teve sua trajetória profissional e biográfica subitamente alterada ao final dos anos 50, com o advento da Revolução Cubana. Ao acompanhar Fidel Castro e Che Guevara até as altitudes da Sierra Maestra, ainda no período da guerrilha, Korda tornou-se um olhar privilegiado, registrando por dentro do novo regime os momentos cruciais de sua afirmação. É dele a foto mais reproduzida em todo o mundo, de Ernesto Che Guevara. E foi ele, durante muitos anos, o fotógrafo pessoal, e não o oficial, de Fidel Castro. Grande retratista e agudo observador dos momentos de intimidade dos dois líderes, mas também sensível às tensões das zonas de combate, Alberto Korda nos conta neste livro, passo-a-passo, por meio de suas imagens, a história de uma experiência política única no século 20.

This book covers all aspects of Korda's extraordinary career with specific reference to his interest in fashion, the revolution and other features of Cuban society. Starting with his early advertising work from the early 1950s the book traces Korda's entry into the world of fashion and his belief in what he termed an 'aesthetics of beauty'. He explored this idea not only in the sensuous curves of the female form but also in the unique landscape of Cuba as well as within the magnificence of the heroic revolutionary. The book also includes his extensive documentation of Castro and Che. A Revolutionary Lens is a celebration of Korda's belief in beauty and has been edited with full support of Alberto Korda's daughter Diana Diaz of the Korda estate.

In 1960, Cuban photographer Alberto Korda captured fabled revolutionary Ernesto “Che” Guevara in what has become history's most reproduced photo. Here Michael Casey tells the remarkable story of this image, detailing its evolution from a casual snapshot to an omnipresent graphic—plastered on everything from T-shirts to vodka to condoms—and into a copyrighted brand. As Casey follows it across the Americas and through cyberspace, he finds governments exploiting it and their dissenters attacking it, merchants selling it and tourists buying it. We see how this image is, ultimately, a mercurial icon that still ignites passion—and a reflection of how we view ourselves.

*Includes pictures of important people, places, and events. *Includes some of Che's and Castro's quotes about socialism, America, Revolution, and more. *Explains their relationship and their roles in the Cuban Revolution. *Includes a Bibliography of each man for further reading. "Men do not shape destiny. Destiny produces the man for the hour." - Fidel Castro, 1959. "The revolution is not an apple that falls when it is ripe. You have to make it fall." - Che Guevara Fidel Castro is one of the most influential and controversial men of the last 50 years, equally revered and reviled by people across the globe. To the West, Castro has long been one of the prominent faces of Communism, and the main reason Cuba has been ostracized by many liberal democracies, particularly the United States. On the other hand, Castro has been admired by those who despised capitalism, and despite the fact the political platform Castro advocated has been almost universally repudiated and only maintains a weak hold even in Cuba, Castro's Marxist-leaning writings and speeches have influenced other leaders across the globe, from Hugo Chavez to Nelson Mandela. Ernesto Guevara de la Serna, known to the world as Che, has led two lives. In the first of these lives, the Argentine-born revolutionary was a remarkable and flawed doctor-turned-guerilla who left behind a highly controversial political legacy. In the second, he was - and is - first and foremost an image. Specifically, he is one particular image in which he appears as a wavy-haired, bearded young man with a beret and an intense gaze. The photograph, entitled Guerrillero Heroico and taken on March 5, 1960 by Cuban photographer Alberto Korda, is said to be the most reproduced image in the history of photography. Although Che's face, as captured by Korda, first achieved its global iconic status during the student revolts of the 1960s, it has subsequently reappeared again and again as a branding device for a wide array of products. Korda himself brought a copyright lawsuit against Smirnoff Vodka for using Guerillero Heroico in an advertising campaign, and since Korda's 2001 death his daughter has gone to court with several other companies. There is little market for the type of revolution that Che advocated and pursued, but the aura of rebellion that his image exudes still carries a notable sway. Fidel Castro and Che Guevara chronicles the lives, careers, and revolutions Castro and Che were involved in, while analyzing the controversies and legacies they left in their wake. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events in his life, you will learn about Fidel and Che like you never have before.
