Résumé de l'éditeur : "Il y a une cinquantaine d'années, les gens utilisaient les caméras 35 mm comme nous utilisons nos smartphones à l'ère d'Instagram. Ils photographiaient ce qu'ils mangeaient, leurs vacances, leurs amis et leurs réunions de famille. Imaginer ce qui a poussé un étranger à appuyer sur l'obturateur il y a plusieurs décennies, voilà ce qui a motivé l'Anonymous Project de Lee Shulman, qui rassemble 300 images d'anonymes issues de sa collection de 700.000 diapositives Kodachrome. Les lieux, les dates et les protagonistes sont inconnus, mais ces histoires photographiées nous sont universellement familières."

In a unique visual dialogue, Deja View brings together the work of beloved photographer Martin Parr, master of capturing the art in everyday existence, with The Anonymous Project's archive of unidentified vintage slides, collected from across Europe and America. Surprising and delighting in their similarity, these affectionately matched images celebrate photography's power to capture the small moments of humour, warmth, ennui and absurdity that are in fact our most important of all.

On the heels of I Am the Brother of XX and These Possible Lives, here is Jaeggy's fabulously witchy first book in English, with a new Peter Mendelsund cover A novel about obsessive love and madness set in postwar Switzerland, Fleur Jaeggy’s eerily beautiful novel begins innocently enough: “At fourteen I was a boarder in a school in the Appenzell.” But there is nothing innocent here. With the off-handed remorselessness of a young Eve, the narrator describes her potentially lethal designs to win the affections of Fréderique, the apparently perfect new girl. In Tim Parks’ consummate translation (with its “spare, haunting quality of a prose poem,” TLS), Sweet Days of Discipline is a peerless, terrifying, and gorgeous work.

This captivating glimpse of real-life mid- century fashion features vintage color photographs taken by amateurs from the past seventy years. In 2017 filmmaker Lee Shulman bought a random box of Kodachrome slides and was so taken by the people and stories he discovered that he decided to create an ongoing archive, which he has called The Anonymous Project. Dressed to Impress, the most recent book to have come out of that endeavor, aims to preserve the collective memory of the way we lived in an increasingly distant past. It features more than two hundred vibrant, candid color slides, presented in stunning full-page spreads, that reflect how people dressed in all kinds of settings-- at home and on vacation, playing and working, partying and hanging out. The images have, for the most part, never been printed or published and their raw, unpolished quality makes them all the more fascinating and arresting. In turns funny, startling, and touching, this collection provides a unique and intimate glimpse into the fashion and everyday experiences of real people during a transformative period in our common history.

The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood was a group of English painters, poets and critics, founded in 1848 by John Everett Millais, Dante Gabriel Rossetti and William Holman Hunt. Their art's romanticism, attention to detail and jewel-like colours have ensured their eternal popularity. This beautifully illustrated reference book, now back in print, is packed with examples of work by the key proponent Millais, and his many contemporaries. Beginning with an overview of the movement it goes on to discuss the art in the context of society, place, influences, and styles and techniques. It is an ideal gift for art lovers or those new.
