'The mirror, above all - the mirror is our teacher', wrote Leonardo da Vinci. Portraits are an endless source of fascination, responding as they do to the basic human impulse to scrutinize a face and strive to peer into the person behind it. Self-portraits have the added fascination that comes from looking into the mirror and trying to study one's own face and the elusive self lurking behind its surface. This striking and sensitive compilation presents an uninterrupted sequence of 500 self-portraits, in chronological order, all the way from ancient Egypt to the late twentieth century and including painting, drawing, sculpture and photography. The challenge of interpreting and re-creating their own likenesses has proven irresistible to artists throughout the ages. Included here are powerfully evocative works by many of the world's greatest painters and sculptors, from Dürer and Rembrandt to Frida Kahlo and Andy Warhol. Each image is both a work of art and a rigorous exploration in psychology and self-perception: a concept brought to life even by the book's mirrored jacket, on whose surface the reader's own face becomes the 501st self-portrait. Presented without commentary, these works speak for themselves: a compelling collection for every student of art and human nature. The illuminating introduction is by the renowned painter and writer Julian Bell.

Côte ouest années 1950, au temps de la jeunesse, de l'exubérance et du renouveau. Rien n'exprime mieux cet état d'esprit que la musique émanant de la scène jazz californienne. Avant d'être connu comme le grand photographe des stars de Hollywood, Bob Willoughby fut l'auteur d'une impressionnante série de portraits de musiciens des années 1950, une époque charnière dans l'histoire du jazz. Lorsqu'il travaillait la nuit dans son garage transformé en chambre noire, la radio hurlant en fond sonore, Willoughby écoutait tous les grands noms de cet âge d'or du jazz. S'il entendait une émission live enregistrée dans une salle à proximité, il laissait tomber le travail en cours et se précipitait sur les lieux du concert avec son appareil photo, prêt à mitrailler. Willoughby tenait le jazz en très haute estime, que ce soit pour ses aspects techniques ou sa capacité d'enflammer les salles pendant les concerts. Il percevait d'une façon remarquable la personnalité de chaque artiste, et il savait la faire ressortir même lorsque l'éclairage des studios d'enregistrement ou des concerts était peu propice. Dans Jazz, Body and Soul, vous découvrirez des portraits étonnants des plus célèbres artistes de l'époque - Miles Davis, Louis Armstrong, Chet Baker, Gerry Mulligan, Billie Holiday - et des photographies inédites de concerts mémorables et de moments de trac dans les coulisses. Ces photos, accompagnées des souvenirs personnels de Willoughby, constituent un témoignage de première main de l'ambiance particulière de l'époque, un peu de ce que le fils de Dave Brubeck, Darius, qualifiait de "premier pas vers l'au-delà".

Helene Cixous is widely regarded as one of the world's most influential feminist writers and thinkers. "White Ink" brings together her most revealing interviews, available in English for the first time. Spanning over four decades and including a new interview with the editor Susan Sellers, this collection presents a brilliant, running commentary on the subjects at the heart of Cixous' writing.Here, Cixous discusses her books and her creative process, her views on and insights into literature, philosophy, theatre, politics, aesthetics, faith and ethics, human relations and the state of the world. As she responds to interviewers' questions, Cixous is prompted to reflect on her roles and activities as poet, playwright, feminist theorist, professor of literature, philosopher, woman, Jew. Each interview is a remarkable performance, an event in language and thought where Cixous' celebrated intellectual and poetic force can be witnessed 'in action'. The accessibility of the interview format provides an excellent starting-point for readers new to Cixous, while those already familiar with her work will find unexpected insights and fresh elucidations of her thought.
