The US mortgage crisis exposed weaknesses in the regulation of the financial industry and the global financial system. At the end of 2008, as the fall-out from the crisis became increasingly widely felt, Edgar Martins was commissioned by New York Times Magazine to photograph its impact across the US in eight separate states and across 16 different locations. These carefully researched sites exposed the extent and impact of the credit crunch on the construction industry.

A fascinating document of aviation history and a mesmerising study of image and light. Edgar Martins was granted special airside access to airports in Europe which retained great importance in aviation history, such as the Azores. Almost all his images were produced at night, using the aprons' floodlights, moonlight or long exposures. The result is incredibly abstract and arresting. In some, sky and ground merge in darkness - in others, the landscape of lights and signs read by pilots remains perplexing.

Photography And The Contemporary Cultural Condition written by Peter D. Osborne and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2018-06-28 with Photography categories.


In this book, Osborne demonstrates why and how photography as photography has survived and flourished since the rise of digital processes, when many anticipated its dissolution into a generalised system of audio-visual representations or its collapse under the relentless overload of digital imagery. He examines how photography embodies, contributes to, and even in effect critiques how the contemporary social world is now imagined, how it is made present and how the concept and the experience of the Present itself is produced. Osborne bases his discussions primarily in cultural studies and visual cultural studies. Through an analysis of different kinds of photographic work in distinct contexts, he demonstrates how aspects of photography that once appeared to make it vulnerable to redundancy turn out to be the basis of its survival and have been utilised by much important photographic work of the last three decades.

In the aftermath of Covid-19, the subject of ‘empty places’ has gained renewed topicality and resonance. Watching, Waiting presents a collection of essays that brings emptiness into interdisciplinary focus as an object of study that extends beyond the present. The contributors approach the specific interrelationships of photography and place through emptiness by considering historical and contemporary material in equal measure. Drawing on architecture, anthropology, sociology, and public health, among other fields, they provide insights into geographically and temporally diverse production models of empty places and their corresponding complex and sensitive global and local relations, while also tackling the ethics of behaviour and protests that unfold within them. The book's chapters, both photographic and scholarly essays, cover areas that range widely both thematically and geographically, spanning static film footage of Nicosia's Buffer Zone, protest photographs in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement in Bristol, staged images from the University of Zagreb's ethnological archives, historic landscape and architectural photography, aerial shots of Covid-19 mass graves in Brazil, photos of artificially built field hospitals and quarantine rooms during the pandemic, and images of empty airports at night. Through still and moving images, Watching, Waiting examines the photographic aestheticisation of emptiness, existing stereotypes of ‘empty places’, and transformations of human experiences.

The Queen The Chairman And I written by Kurt Tong and has been published by DEWI LEWIS this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2019 with Hong Kong (China) categories.


The Queen, The Chairman and I is a saga of love, hope, and tragedy: a storybook that both uncovers family secrets and reveals the impact of political and economic forces on individuals. It deals with themes of multiculturalism and migration, heritage and empire. Kurt Tong's paternal grandfather was a deckhand who arrived in Hong Kong from Shanghai after the fall of the last imperial Chinese dynasty in 1911. His mother's family were landlords in Southern China. By coming to Hong Kong, they almost certainly escaped death at the hands of Mao's advancing Communist armies. Kurt Tong himself grew up in Hong Kong, singing the British National Anthem throughout his school years. At the age of 13, he moved to the UK to continue his education, before finally returning to Hong Kong in 2012. Tong has traced the history of his family in a bid to find out how two of the most influential people in history, Queen Victoria and Chairman Mao, had affected them. Giving equal importance to new photographs, found photographs and writing, the work reconnects him with the Hong Kong of the past, through the recollections of his extended family, humanising the political and social upheaval that took his family to Hong Kong and eventually to the United Kingdom.

Dans l'exposition Civilisations de type I, II et III, Rui Toscano poursuit, approfondit et, dans une certaine mesure, élargit sa recherche dans l'univers de l'exploration spatiale. Peut-être la plus grande transformation intervenue dans l'œuvre de Rui Toscano, mise en évidence dans cette exposition (et suggérée d'ailleurs par le titre de l'exposition, qui fait référence à l'échelle de Kardashev, par laquelle le célèbre astrophysicien russe établit une quantification du niveau de l'avancée technologique basée sur la quantité d'énergie que chaque civilisation peut utiliser), est l'alignement cosmique des univers imaginaires des civilisations historiques ou fictivement projetées.
