Revue Of
Book: A
few families have been given the gift of having their lives chronicled
by a master photographer. Jock Sturges books chronicle the passage
of time through the lives of several families, who are photographed
naturally at a nature retreat in France. The lineage of the human
family is at its most noble in these images of parents with their
children, brothers with their sisters, families with friends...
It is the soul of humanity and family that is depicted in Sturges'
fine work, in a manner that (thanks to its nudity) is as timeless
as the human spirit itself. Propagandistic attacks upon his work
because of the natural nudity are, while perhaps honestly felt,
are misplaced.

Revue Of
Book: This is 'THE' Hamilton book to own! I have never seen anything
so beautiful and classical as this before. Hamilton is a true
master artist and this book shows the depths to which he explores
his art. As one other reader said, when you see the pages of this
book unfold before you, you feel as if you are entering a classical
landscape of beauty and enchantment. The subject matter (young
girls) is a heated topic, however the way Hamilton photographs
each subject is a tribute to the eye of a master. There is nothing
obscene or pornographic in the pages of this book. This is pure
and innocent beauty from a period in life where everything is
confusing and magical. The goal of any great photographer should
be to show us the world we don't see, to show us what we have
all around us but never stop to notice. Hamilton is a great photographer
and his landscapes and nudes show us the erotic and mystical in
our world. Buy this book. It is worth every penny.

Revue Of
Book: The author, Jock Sturges , October 16, 1997: My
best effort to date. This monograph represents the first time
my work has been presented as I have always wanted it to be. The
Swiss publishing house Scalo was enormously generous in allowing
me to edit and print this book in this form as many of my choices
of paper and prinitng technique were very expensive. Here for
the first time my work can be seen as a serious effort over time.
The images are presented in chronological series throughout the
book so that in some cases it is possible to see as much as twenty
years of change in a given model.I know that my work is considered
controversial by some people -- a fact I only regret. The intent
behind the images is serious and is intended in no way whatsoever
to shock. I think of myself as a celebrant in an almost religious
sense. The people whom I know and photograph are simply beautiful
to me. Their generosity and grace are a constant inspiration

Revue Of
Book:
It's really quite sad that over the past couple decades Americans
have become so phobic about children's sexuality that even people
who enjoy and appreciate this book cannot bring themselves to
admit it. Meanwhile, most of the critical reviews posted here
don't even indicate that the writers have actually looked at the
book, they just know it's "bad" or "evil" because it suggests
that children might be human beings along with all that implies.
This book is a daring last line of defense against the utter pablumification
and disneyfication that threatens to consume American culture.
I would strongly encourage anyone to read this book to challenge
the prevailing cultural mores of puritainism.

of emotion, power, and beauty. He has captured generations with
his camera, showing images from childhood to adulthood. More so,
Jock has achieved what many photographers and arts cannot. He
has attained that trust and opened up the emotion of his subjects.
If one looks his subjects eyes and face, rather then just shallowly
looking a "young nude child," you can see the real power of Jock's
work

Lindbergh, who created them rather than they who inspired him
with their raw material, well, let him dream. His 108 sensual

living up to the promise, but this is an exception. Christopher
Grey explains in detail how he created the innovative, sometimes
abstract, black-and-white figure studies that are the focus of
this book. He includes descriptions of the lighting setups, poses,
backgrounds, props, etc., but also adds extra information often
lacking in this kind of book: He tells us the advantages of working
with pregnant models ("transient beauty [resulting] from physical
changes"); outlines the perils, legal and otherwise, of shooting
nudes outdoors, and the steps he takes to avoid problems; discusses
the nuances of compostion; talks about his and his models' attitudes
toward the shots; and generally lets the reader look over his
shoulder while he makes his photographs.

Revue Of
Book: This seductive volume features a recently rediscovered cache
of captivating portraits from another time and place: a golden
age of cinema and cabaret in Vienna of the 1920s and 1930s. The
Manasses, a husband-and-wife team from the Vienesse beau monde,
used retouching techniques to create surreal and noir images that
seethe with an erotic symbolism barely concealed beneath a mask
of glorious styling, elegant poses, and extravagant costumes.
Photographic historian Monika Faber examines this work as part
of the world of a cinema-enthralled Vienna, while an accompanying
D.H. Lawrence story enhances the erotic climate of the images.

Helfrich not only took pictures of the numerous - and surprisingly
attractive - women he slept with in the 1970s but persuaded them
to let him print their pictures in this book. Helfrich insists
he's showing of these photographs not to boast but to document
the era of free love. At first glance you might think its's bragging,
but if you read any of the text, you realize it's not. This guy
makes Charlie Sheen look meek.

Revue Of
Book: 'Deus ex Machina' is a powerful manifestation of Gibson's
vision over the last 40 years. The book contains images that have
been reproduced before, as well as many new images. However,although
many images are well known, they can be seen in a fresh way because
of the pairing and sequencing that Gibson is known for. The way
that the book provides a context for these images makes "Deus
ex Machina" much more than a collection of interesting pictures.

Graphic Sha Pub Co; ISBN: 4766111338
Revue Of
Book: As fascination with retro chic shows no signs of letting up,
French pin-up girl images of the 50s and 60s have become highly
sought after both for their bent toward sophisticated eroticism
and as inspiration for today's fashion photographers. Proliferating
during the heyday of nude and glamour magazines, as well as the
era of Henry Miller's previously-banned literary triumphs and
an enchantment with French sensuality, these are subtle yet powerfully
erotic photographs, alluring in their quiet, daylight settings
and classically posed models, whose aura lies in their natural,
imperfect beauty--a beauty that has been mostly disregarded by
the narrow standards of today's mainstream aesthetic.

9.94 x 7.28
Revue Of
Book: Here is the long and the short of it: This is a wonderful
book. I have looked at dozens of photography books, and what seems
like hundreds of magazines, and I am positive that none of them
contain the wealth of information that Steve Anchell (in collaboration
with Bill Troop) puts in this book (or in Steve's other books
for that matter). If you are interested in making the most of
your black and white photography, you need to know what your film
if composed of, what it reacts to, and how to achieve the effects
that you want to get out of it. You don't have to be a darkroom
guru to use it, you don't need a lot of equipment, and you don't
need an elaborate setup. I think anyone will improve his or her
results after reading and using this book. I have always believed
that the magic in black and white takes place in the darkroom,
and even if you don't have a darkroom, your control of the film
development process will make you a better photographer. This
is a great way to get it right.

Revue Of
Book: As stated in the summery this is a great book for people who
wish to advance in the darkroom; to have more control over their
work. The Darkroom Cookbook discuss, in easy to understand concise
language, how to make your own developers, toners, fixers, reducers
etc. Stephen Anchell gives you the formulas to reproduce, in your
own darkroom, a host of great developers etc. He also gives some
basic info on hints and tools you will need to get started. A
well written book easy to follow; though a little knowledge of
basic chemistry is helpful. I am a new darkroomer and found this
book has a wealth of inforamtion helpful if you like to expeirment.
By the way, If you are just being introduced to the darkroom or
rusty at it, don't buy this book at this momment. Wait untill
you feel comfortable working in the darkroom using stock chemicals,
this book might discourage some from beinning because it is a
techincal manual.
