Book Description
Rendons grâce à l'agence Magnum. Nombre des plus célèbres photographes de presse (Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Raymond Depardon, Elliott Erwitt, Marc Ribaud, etc.) ont parcouru le monde sous son sigle prestigieux. Et ce bel album témoigne de leur talent, de leur courage et de leur humanité C'est l'histoire cruelle de notre temps que nous découvrons en tournant avec émerveillement les pages. On y retrouve quelques-unes des photos les plus célèbres, celles qui ont forgé notre mémoire collective : le milicien républicain foudroyé sur le front de Cordoue en 1936, sous l'éclatant soleil de l'Andalousie. Ou l'adolescent à califourchon sur le mur de Berlin le 11 novembre 1989, symbole joyeux du totalitarisme vaincu. Voici aussi les portraits de ceux qui ont manqué notre temps : Che Guevara avec son cigare à La Havane en 1963. Le dalaï-lama, encore jeune adolescent, arrivant a Delhi au terme de son exode élu Tibet. Ou Jacqueline Kennedy, le visage voile sous le regard de Robert Kennedy, lors des funérailles du président assassiné. Et encore Martin Luther King devant le Lincoln Memorial délivrant son discours : " J'ai lait un rêve "en 1963. Ce bel album que je tiens pour un honneur de préfacer est doublement précieux : par la qualité exceptionnelle, artistique et historique, des oeuvres réunies ; et parce que ces photos témoignent du talent et du courage de ces "reporters sans frontières" pour lesquels il ne saurait y avoir de Liberté sans liberté de la presse. En achetant cet album, vous contribuez à financer les actions de Reporters sans frontières qui oeuvre avec détermination depuis 25 ans pour la défense de la liberté de la presse. l'information est précieuse, protégeons-la ensemble !

Book Description
Timing, skill, and talent all play an important role increating a great photograph, but the most primaryelement, the photographer's eye, is perhaps the mostcrucial. In The Eyes of the City, Richard Sandlershowcases decades' worth of work, proving his eye forstreet life rivals any of his generation. From 1977 to just weeks before September 11, 2001,Richard regularly walked through the streets of Bostonand New York, making incisive and humorous picturesthat read the pulse of that time.After serendipitously being gifted a Leica camera in1977, Sandler shot in Boston for three productive years and then moved back home to photograph in an edgy,dangerous, colicky New York City. In the 1980s crime and crack were on the rise and theireffects were socially devastating. Times Square, Harlem,and the East Village were seeded with hard drugs, whilein Midtown Manhattan, and on Wall Street, the richflaunted their furs in unprecedented numbers, and "greedwas good." In the 1990s the city underwent drastic changes to lurein tourists and corporations, the result of which was rapidgentrification. Rents were raised and neighborhoods weresanitized, clearing them of both crime and character.Throughout these turbulent and creative years Sandlerpaced the streets with his native New Yorker's eye forcompassion, irony, and unvarnished fact. The results are presented in The Eyes of the City,many for the first time in print. Overtly, they capture acomplex time when beauty mixed with decay, yet belowthe picture surface, they hint at unrecognized ghosts inthe American psyche.

Book Description
What do photographs want? Do they need any accompaniment in today's image-saturated society? Can writing inflect photography (or vice versa) in such a way that neither medium takes precedence? Or are they in constant, inexorable battle with each other? Taking nine case studies from the 1990s French-speaking world (from France, North Africa and the Caribbean), this book attempts to define the interaction between non-fictional written text (caption, essay, fragment, poem) and photographic image. Having considered three categories of 'intermediality' between text and photography - the collaborative, the self-collaborative and the retrospective - the book concludes that the dimensions of their interaction are not simple and two-fold (visuality versus/alongside textuality), but threefold and therefore 'complex'. Thus, the photo-text, as defined here, is concerned as much with orality - the demotic, the popular, the vernacular - as it is with visual and written culture. That text-image collaborations give space to the spoken, spectral traces of human discourse, suggests that the key element of the photo-text is its radical provisionality.

Book Description
This book analyses the European border at Lampedusa as a metaphor for visible and invisible powers that impinge on relations between Europe and Africa/Asia. Taking an interdisciplinary approach (political, social, cultural, economic and artistic), it explores the island as a place where social relations based around race, gender, sex, age and class are being reproduced and/or subverted. The authors argue that Lampedusa should be understood as a synecdoche for European borders and boundaries. Widening the classical definition of the term ‘border’, the authors examine the different meanings assigned to the term by migrants, the local population, seafarers and associative actors based on their subjective and embodied experiences. They reveal how migration policies, international relations with African, Middle Eastern and Asian countries, and the perpetuation of new forms of colonization and imperialism entail heavy consequences for the European Union. This work will appeal to a wide readership, from scholars of migration, anthropology and sociology, to students of political science, Italian, African and cultural studies.
