Vivian Maier
The original, instant classic which set the world afire. The first book to introduce the phenomenon that is the life story and work of Vivian Maier. A good street photographer must be possessed of many talents: an eye for detail, light, and composition; impeccable timing; a populist or humanitarian outlook; and a tireless ability to constantly shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot and never miss a moment. It is hard enough to find these qualities in trained photographers with the benefit of schooling and mentors and a community of fellow artists and aficionados supporting and rewarding their efforts. It is incredibly rare to find it in someone with no formal training and no network of peers. Yet Vivian Maier is all of these things, a professional nanny, who from the 1950s until the 1990s took over 100,000 photographs worldwide--from France to New York City to Chicago and dozens of other countries--and yet showed the results to no one. The photos are amazing both for the breadth of the work and
Bernhard Nordhs Lexikon - Bernhard Nordhs Lexikon
Texterna i den här boken tillkom under åren 1933-35. Bernhard Nordh hade sex år tidigare beslutat sig för att försöka leva på sitt skrivande och han har själv uttryckt att han bombarderade redaktionerna med noveller och andra texter. Många gånger fick han anpassa sitt skrivande till redaktörernas önskemål om spänning och kärlek men i sitt lexikon fick han släppa sin fantasi fri och fabulera kring orden och dess betydelser. Delar av texterna publicerades i många tidskrifter under rubriker som Smålänningens lexikon, Svenssons lexikon och senast i Västerbottens Kuriren som Bernhard Nordhs lexikon. Lexikonet har aldrig tidigare utgivits i bokform.

Vivian Maier
A full-career retrospective on the work of Vivian Maier, bringing together a selection of key works from throughout her life and career. When Vivian Maier's archive was discovered in Chicago in 2007, the photography community gained an immense and singular talent. Maier lived in relative obscurity until her death in 2009, but is now the subject of films and books, and recognized as one of the great American photographers of the 20th century.Born in New York in 1926, she worked as a nanny in New York and Chicago for much of her adult life. It was during her years as a nanny that she took many of the photographs that have made her posthumously famous. Maier's incredible body of work consists of more than 150,000 photographic images, Super 8 and 16 mm films, various recordings and a multitude of undeveloped films.Working primarily as a street photographer, Maier's work has been compared with such luminaries as Helen Levitt, Robert Frank, Diane Arbus and Joel Meyerowitz. Drawing on previously unpublished archives and recent scientific analyses, this retrospective sheds new light on Maier's work. With texts by Anne Morin and Christa Blumlinger, this thorough look at Maier's entire archive is organized thematically in sections that cover self-portraits, the street, portraits, gestures, cinematography, children, colour work and forms.A valuable addition to the continuing assessment of Maier's work, this book is a one-volume compendium of her most enduring images.

Kerstin Bernhard
Kerstin Bernhard (19142004) inledde sin karriär i samband med att svensk modefotografi på allvar började bli en självständig genre. Hennes modebilder från 1940-, 50- och 60-talen behåller ännu i dag en tydlig fräschör och några av dem är utan tvekan klassiker. Men Bernhards livsverk innehåller mycket mer än så. Som porträttfotograf fick hon på 1940-talet genomslag i tidskrifter som Idun, Vecko-Journalen och Filmjournalen. Något årtionde senare hade hon skiftat huvudfokus mot mat. Hennes medverkan i Bonniers kokbok var pionjärartad på samma sätt som kokboken var banbrytande med sina stora färgbilder. I de friare berättelserna om bröd och människor skapade hon ett kulturhistoriskt bildmaterial som saknar motstycke. Mot slutet av sin gärning sökte Kerstin Bernhard det estetiskt tilltalande i vardagens allra enklaste former. Kritikern Kurt Bergengren skrev: Det är inspirerande bilder, svindlande sköna former i en fotografisk form som är lika ren. Det finns ingenting att tillägga. Den här boken är del två i en serie med fotoböcker från Nordiska museet. Kända motiv kompletteras med sällan visade bilder ur Kerstin Bernhards omfattande arkiv, som har ingått i museets samlingar sedan 1990-talet.
