Robert Adams,Richard B. Woodward: Along Some Rivers: Photographs and Conversations
Description
Robert Adams, one of America's foremost living photographers, has spent decades considering and documenting the landscape of the American West and how it has been altered, disturbed, or destroyed by the hand of man. A professor of English before turning to photography, Adams is also a skilled writer and acute thinker on aesthetic questions. Aperture's previous collections, "Beauty in Photography" and "Why People Photograph", gathered together Adam's essays on a host of subjects: writing, teaching, photography's place in the arts, and reflections on the work of an array of photographers. With its focus on the voice of the artist, "Along Some Rivers" follows in the tradition of these publications, but provides another point of entry into Robert Adam's careful consideration of photography and beyond. A collection of conversations (some previously unpublished) with writers and curators - William McEwan, Rebecca Solnit, Constance Sullivan, and Thomas Weski, among others (including a group of his students) - this publication offers the artist's thoughts on a number of his now legendary projects, including "Cottonwoods" and "What We Bought". A discussion of his recent series chronicling the destruction of Oregon's great forests, "Turning Back", takes us to the present moment. Through these exchanges we learn which filmmakers and painters have influenced his work; why, in Adams's view, Marcel Duchamp has not been a helpful guide for art; how he decides upon titles for his books; and what the term documentary means to him; as well as basic technical questions - which cameras he prefers, how he approaches printing his pictures. Additionally, this publication includes a selection of twenty-eight unpublished landscapes. Together these photographs and conversations provide valuable insight into how this master photographer approaches the medium with an expert level of craft, great intelligence, modesty, and above all, a distinct sense of purpose. "Along Some Rivers" will be a valuable addition to literature on photography.
The "New York Times" bestseller hailed as "the best business book of 2010" ("Huffington Post"). As soon as the financial crisis erupted, the finger-pointing began. Should the blame fall on Wall Street, Main Street, or Pennsylvania Avenue? On greedy traders, misguided regulators, sleazy subprime companies, cowardly legislators, or clueless home buyers?According to Bethany McLean and Joe Nocera, two of America's most acclaimed business journalists, the real answer is all of the above-and more. Dermatology: 2-Volume Set free download pdf Many devils helped bring hell to the economy. And the full story, in all of its complexity and detail, is like the legend of the blind men and the elephant. Almost everyone has missed the big picture. Almost no one has put all the pieces together."All the Devils Are Here" goes back several decades to weave the hidden history of the financial crisis in a way no previous book has done. It explores the motivations of everyone from famous CEOs, cabinet secretaries, and politicians to anonymous lenders, borrowers, analysts, and Wall Street traders. It delves into the powerful American mythology of homeownership. And it proves that the crisis ultimately wasn't about finance at all; it was about human nature.
