John Heartfield ; laughter is a devastating weapon
David King, Ernest Volland
- Tate Gallery
- 24 Juillet 2015
- 9781849761840
Une monographie de l'artiste et caricaturiste anglais John Heartfield. Né à Berlin en 1891, il est perçu, avec Georges Grosz, comme l'un des pères du photomontage. Considéré par Aragon comme le « prototype de l'artiste antifasciste », il consacra une grande partie de sa vie à détourner les affiches de propagande nazie qu'il publia dans « Arbeiter Illustrierte Zeitung », magazine antifasciste allemand des années 1930.

Created to accompany one of the most exciting exhibitions of 2020, this stunning paperback catalogue presents the full breadth of Muholi's photographic and activist practice.
Richly illustrated, it includes images from the key series Muholi has produced over the past twenty years, as well as never-before-published and recent works. The exhibition book also features six newly commissioned essays exploring their work, as well as a full glossary and chronology.
Born in South Africa, Zanele Muholi came to prominence in the early 2000s with photographs that sought to envision black lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer and intersex lives beyond deviance or victimhood. Muholi's work challenges hetero-patriarchal ideologies and representations, presenting the participants in their photographs as confident and beautiful individuals bravely existing in the face of prejudice, intolerance and, frequently, violence. While Muholi's intimate photographs of others launched their international career, their intense self-portraits solidified it.

Liz Johnson Artur is a Ghanaian-Russian photographer and photojournalist based in London. For over three decades, her work has documented the lives of black people from across the African Diaspora. She calls this ongoing project the Black Balloon Archive, alluding to a 1970 song lyric by Syl Johnson that describes a black balloon 'dancing' in the sky, which is how Johnson Artur imagines her own movement when taking photographs.
This publication showcases Time don't run here, a series of photographs of the Black Lives Matter protests taken in the summer of 2020 in London.

The purpose of the new Tate Photography series is to establish a truly international representation of photography now, to broaden access to remarkable photographers, and to explore the medium's unique ability to capture life and experience in the world today.
With the direct involvement of living photographers in collaboration with photography curators, these books will showcase the best and most notable images taken across the globe, from city streets to seashores, moving across landscapes and through subcultures, in a visual travelogue of our world.
From 2022, Tate will release four books each year, connected by a single theme. By showing varied and international approaches to a subject, the series seeks to create a deeper understanding of what photography can do while also enhancing our appreciation of the lives of others.
The first four volumes The first year's theme is community and solidarity. A Ghanaian-Russian photographer joins Black Lives Matter street protests in London, an artist-activist in New Delhi chronicles women's emancipatory struggles, a South-African's camera locates queer lives in rural townships, while a Finnish photographer captures the North-East of England as perhaps only an emigre with a discerning eye can.
In all these environments, each imbued with unique struggles and dangers, a commonality of human character and strength inspired by community and solidarity is portrayed, permitting glimpses of joy and hope.
Each book contains a new conversation between curator and photographer and is prefaced with a short introduction.

Born in Finland, Sirkka-Liisa Konttinen studied in London, founding the Amber Film & Photography Collective with her fellow students, and then moved to North East England in the 1960s. She has been based in Newcastle ever since, deeply rooted in the local community.
Focusing on two of her photographic series - Byker (1969-83) and Writing in the Sand (1978-98) - this book captures a working class neighbourhood and reveals the devastating impact that the redevelopment of Newcastle's East End had on the community, but also the moments of joy of the group outings to the beach.
Konttinen's love for this part of the world is at the heart of these moving but never sentimental pictures. Her photographs and Amber's films were inscribed in the British section of the UNESCO Memory of the World Register in 2011.

- 9781849768672
Chris Killip (1946-2020) a été l'un des photographes britanniques les plus influents de sa génération. Sa curiosité et son empathie l'ont attiré vers des groupes et des lieux marginaux qui ont fait l'objet de nombreuses séries photographiques. Il est surtout connu pour ses images en noir et blanc, notamment dans le nord-est de l'Angleterre dans les années 1970 et 1980. Ce volume se concentre sur les célèbres séries Seacoal et Skinningrove, documentant les communautés vivant dans le paysage industriel en déclin de la région et où, selon ses propres mots, « le Moyen Âge et le XXe siècle se sont entrelacés ».

Depuis plus de cinq décennies, l'artiste brésilienne d'origine suisse Claudia Andujar consacre sa vie à photographier et à protéger les Yanomami d'Amazonie, l'un des plus grands groupes indigènes du Brésil. Tentant de traduire visuellement leur culture chamanique, elle expérimente diverses techniques photographiques pour créer des distorsions visuelles, des jeux de lumière et des couleurs saturées. La confiance qu'Andujar a gagnée au fil des années est si forte que les Yanomami, qui détruisent les objets personnels appartenant à une personne lorsqu'elle meurt - y compris des photographies - ont fait une exception afin de rendre son travail possible. Aujourd'hui âgée de 90 ans, elle continue de les soutenir dans leur lutte pour la survie.

À la fois déchirantes et d'une beauté saisissante, les images de Mosse laissent des traces permanentes de part leur fort impact.

A world in common : contemporary african photography

The post-war period was a golden age for photography in Britain: it marked the apogee of the illustrated press with magazines such as Life and Picture Post, the birth of Magnum (the first independent photographic agency) in 1947, and the emergence of documentary photographers working with a new artistic freedom.
This book explores photography from the first year of post-war peace to 1979 (a year that saw the election of Margaret Thatcher, the siege of the American Embassy in Tehran and the first black-led government of Rhodesia/Tanzania in 90 years). This is arguably the most memorable, and yet tumultuous, epoch in history; a time of hope and change for many as Europe's empires collapsed in Africa and Asia, and simultaneously a time of pain and new oppressions during the Civil Rights and Cold War eras.
Britain in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s was changed indelibly: shaped by de-colonization and mass immigration; by de-industrialization at home;
And by the struggle for new economic and political influence abroad after the collapse of the empire.
Including work by celebratory photographers such as Lee Miller, Bill Brandt, Philip Jones-Griffiths, Larry Burrows, Margaret Bourke-White, Werner Bischof, Henri Cartier-Bresson and David Goldblatt, this book will also shine a light on lesser-known yet no-less-exceptional photographers such as Homai Vyarawalla, Rashid Talukdar, Ernest Cole ('Kole'), Bandele 'Tex' Ajetunmobi, Fan Ho, Thurston Hopkins, Shirley Baker and Paul Trevor.

Publié au japon dans les années 70, Tales of Tono est une élégie photographique née de l'obsession de Daido Moriyama pour la petite ville de Tono, qu'il a imaginée être la parfaite ville natale : le lieu de toute les idéalisations et des souvenirs d'enfance perdus.

Eadweard Muybridge (1830-1904) is one of the most innovative and influential photographers of all time. Born in Britain, he emigrated to New York in his 20s, beginning his career as a photographer in San Francisco in 1867. Muybridge constantly pushed the limits of photography's possibilities, creating vast panoramas of the American landscape, inventing a method of projecting moving images that predated celluloid and documenting the young nation's rapidly growing cities. He is best known for his revolutionary series Animal Locomotion that inspired such key figures as Marcel Duchamp and Francis Bacon and continues to exert a strong fascination on contemporary artists today. Muybridge's extraordinary life encompassed several name changes (he was born Edward James Muggeridge), extensive international travel and even trial for murder. But as the essays by a selection of eminent critics featured in the book demonstrate, the details of his biography are less astonishing than the range and scope of his achievements in his chosen medium. Illustrating over 200 works from throughout Muybridge's career, accompanying a major, touring exhibition, this will remain the major work on the artist for many years to come.
