DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the first volume of Landscape with Figures published in 2004, Massimo Vitali showed his entire oeuvre from the nineties, broadening the scope of his survey of beaches and discos to include skiing resorts and swimming pools from across the globe. Since 2007 Vitali has modified his perspective, shifting between an architectural background and a bizarre and fantastic mise en sc�ne inspired by Romantic landscape paintings from 17th-19th century. The second volume Natural Habitats, comprises seventy photographs, spanning from 2004 to 2009 - also includes a "genealog - ical tree" of his photographs: 120 thumbnail images which make visual connections by color, composition and time. Massimo Vitali, born in Como, Italy in 1944, studied photography in London. He first worked as a photojournalist in the 1970s and then later as a camera operator. In the more recent past, his interests have turned to photography as part of contemporary art. His work has been shown in Arles, Paris, London and New York.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe latest from Massimo Vitali, master portraitist of the beach and the disco This large-format volume, collecting images from 2009 to 2018, is the latest in Steidl's series publishing the life's work of Massimo Vitali. Following the first two volumes, published together as Landscape with Figures / Natural Habitats, 1994-2009 in 2011 (and now out of print), Entering a New World presents Vitali's large-scale color images of humans interacting en masse--both consciously and unconsciously--with their environments. Whether relaxing beachside, exploring the ruins of the Roman Forum or navigating a crowded shopping promenade, the scenes in these photographs are topographical celebrations and subtle critiques of our changing habits of leisure. The book furthermore traces an important shift in Vitali's practice: his move from large-format film to medium-format digital. Born in Como in 1944, Massimo Vitali studied photography at the London College of Printing. Beginning in the 1960s, Vitali worked as a photojournalist, collaborating with magazines and agencies throughout Europe before turning to cinematography for television and cinema in the early 1980s. He eventually returned to still photography as an artist, taking up large-format photography in 1993 and beginning his famous Beach Series in 1995. Steidl has published Vitali's Landscape with Figures (2004) and Landscape with Figures / Natural Habitats, 1994-2009 (2011).

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOur fast-changing world seen through the lenses of 140 leading contemporary photographers around the globe. With close to 500 images, many previously unpublished, this landmark publication takes stock of the material and spiritual cultures that make up 'civilization'. Ranging from the ordinary to the extraordinary, from our great collective achievements to our ruinous collective failings, Civilization: The Way We Live Now explores the complexity of contemporary civilization through the rich, nuanced language of photography. Featuring images by some 140 photographers - from Reiner Riedler's families at leisure parks, Raimond Wouda's high schools, Wang Qingsong's Work, Work, Work and Cindy Sherman's Society Portraits, to Lauren Greenfield's displays of ostentatious wealth, Edward Burtynsky's oil fields, Pablo Lopez Luz's views on a sprawling contemporary megalopolis, Thomas Struth's images of high technology, Xing Danwen's electronic wastelands and Taryn Simon's Contraband, Civilization draws together the threads of humankind's ever-changing, frenetic, collective life across the globe. Visually epic, Civilization is presented through eight thematic chapters, each featuring powerful imagery and accompanied by provocative essays, quotes and concise statements by the artists themselves.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor some years now, painting has been the subject of renewed interest in the art world, taking prime place in such international exhibitions as Pittura Immedia, Troublespot Painting, Painting at the Edge of the World, and Urgent Painting. In this same field of exploration and debate, Painting Pictures considers the possibilities of painting in the age of photographic and digital media. Let those calls for the death of painting after photography ring hollow--Painting Pictures shows how painting reinvents itself in the face of photography, television, advertising, cinema and the computer. Featured is work by dozens of artists who bring painting into the digital age from a variety of approaches, including Jeff Koons, Fiona Rae, Richard Patterson, Matthew Ritchie, Takashi Murakami, Franz Ackermann, Lisa Ruyter, Sarah Morris, Monique Prieto, Brain Calvin, Inka Essenhigh and Fred Tomaselli. These artists often make use of new media for their paintings by appropriating digital pictures or by using the computer as sketchbook. Conversely, new-media artists often cite picture stories and painting gestures in their photographs and videos--and so, within these pages, the reader will also find work by Wolfgang Tillmans, Sarah Jones, Bill Viola, Massimo Vitali, Andreas Gursky, Jeff Wall, Doug Aitken and others.
