Condition: Good with slight rubbing to the top and corners. Dust Jacket Condition: Good with slight mark to front bottom corner. The fascinating collection of photographs in Snowdon on Stage presents a period of startling change in theatre - from 1954 to the present - in addition to the many changes Snowdon himself initiated in the style of theatre photography. Snowdon's photographs capture the reckless, stylish spirit of genius of some of the world's greatest stage actors - Nigel Hawthorne, Peter Ustinov, Fiona Shaw, Ralph Fiennes, Vanessa Redgrave, Helen Mirren, and of course, Laurence Olivier - as well as directors, designers, and writers such as Alan Bennett, Arthur Miller, Harold Pinter, and Alan Ayckbourn. Simon Callow's introduction gives and insider's account of the people and places of the heyday of British theatre, and Snowdon's part in it all.

Photobook - Landscape Photography - Saskia Boelsums

Hardback Size: 308 mm x 250 mm Pages: 208 pages Illustrations: 220 colour Price: £50 + P & P The dramatic landscape photographs of Saskia Boelsums manifest a strong connection to the Dutch tradition of landscape paintings. She is inspired by nature, weather, and the seasons, with clouds and skies characterised by moody chiaroscuro and painterly monumentality. The reality of the changing climate, and what this will mean for the future, is a theme that runs throughout her work. She captures not only the beauty of the landscape, but also a vague sense of uncertainty and threat. As she says: It looks like the classic historical Dutch landscapes and skies are being pushed out by landscapes and skies that are the result of climate change. I am very aware of that tension. I am photographing when most people think the weather is too bad to go outside. By exploring different landscapes in all four seasons, I feel strongly connected to the universe. That feeling I'm trying to pass on through my landscape photos. -Saskia Boelsums.

Photobook - Locusts - By Gusov

Hardback Size: 24.7 x 30.6 cm Pages: 320 Illustrations: Over 300 black & white photographs. Published: 2008 Publisher: Thames and Hudson Ltd Stock number: 017755/0123 Price: £25 + P & P Hardback. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good, small tear to front bottom right. Landscape format. Grey decorated boards in black & white pictorial jacket. Over 300 black & white photographs. With an afterword by Andrei Navrozov. Locusts is a book of photographs that, in the words of its creator, Sasha Gusov, ‘is an album that pulls together the concept of mass mentality – photographs that examine the way people eat, the tourist eternally behind the camera, the obsession with consumerism. It is an anthropological investigation of contemporary man – who we are, who we have become and how absurd we can be at times.’ Each of the book’s ten sections present a catalogue of human weakness but in the warm spirit of humour and irony. The outcome of five years of work and observation around the world, these brief snatches and moments are a true representation of what humanity does when it thinks that no one is looking.
