Soft cover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. Kander's on-going series, Dark Line The Thames Estuary, is a personal reflection of the River Thames at its point of connection with the sea, through atmospheric images of its slow-moving dark waters and seemingly infinite horizons. Travelling to the estu…ary alone over a period of three years, engaging in his process of slow photography, Kander focuses on the cycle of the river, as well as its historical and mystical implications. Immersive, the resulting images explore photography's ability to encapsulate time and physical borders. Once known as the busiest trading route in the world, the estuary waters of the River Thames have been shaped by the history of human experience. Images of heavy skies and dark, turbulent waters summon memories of the toil and grit of the many thousands who have worked the river since Roman times of pirates roaming the waters, soldiers and ships sunk in battle and, more recently, migrants embarking on dangerous journeys across the North Sea. With small figurative elements, such as disused artillery forts, quarries and other abandoned structures and ruins, Kander's photographs evoke the grimness of the river's history, as well as a contemporary sense of desolation.

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Nadav Kander (born 1961) is an Israeli-born, London-based artist, director and photographer, internationally renowned for his landscapes and portraiture. His latest photographic series, Bodies, consists of nudes painted white against a black backdrop, their faces tuned away from the viewer…. Accessories are minimal, as is the aesthetic; yet, at the same time, the arrangement makes the sitters mostly voluptuous bodies seem baroque. Despite the abundance of flesh on display, however, the images lack a superficial sense of the erotic; the white makeup and lack of eye contact function as barriers, and the massiveness of the limbs recalls the work of Hans Bellmer and Lucian Freud. Like Bellmer and Freud, Kander presents us with a simulacrum of sensuality, questioning our images of the human body as well as the concept of beauty itself.

hardcover. Condition: As New. Prima edizione (First Edition). Un testo di Ian McEwan, alcuni stralci di scritti di David Lynch. Intervista di David Campany al fotografo. 296 fotografie a colori e in bianco e nero e un testo di Nadav Kander ("The Triangle") . Cm 33,5x27,5. pp. 336. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Editi…on). . Indipendentemente dal suo soggetto, che sia un membro della famiglia o una celebrità influente (per es. Barack Obama, John le Carré, Alexander McQueen, a Tracey Emin, Robert Plant e il Principe Carlo), la ritrattistica di Nadav Kander mostra ciò che rende quel particolare individuo umano. Il suo obiettivo è quello di andare oltre la cattura di una somiglianza accurata, per accedere alle emozioni all'interno, l'incertezza, l'ombra così come la luce, il complesso senso di sé che altrimenti rimane nascosto. "Rivelato e nascosto, bellezza e distruzione, facilità e malattia, vergogna e spudoratezza", spiega Kander, "Questi paradossi sono essenziali per tutto il mio lavoro e rappresentano ciò che è comune a tutti i miei vari soggetti." Questa collezione, il primo libro dedicato alla sua ritrattistica, mostra la gamma e le sfumature del lavoro di Kander. Book.

Hardback. Condition: Good. 28 x 35cm 188pp good hardback, signed by the photographer 'To George.' on the title page. Nadav Kander s Yangtze The Long River is a book which matches the magnitude of the subject matter. Photographed between 2006 and 2008, Kander travelled along China s largest river in a period of rapid transformati…on during the construction and completion of the Three Gorges Dam. The vast landscape photographs, too, highlight the sheer scale of a number of important tropes represented in the images: the size of the river, the millions of people living along the river, and the country s unprecedented economic ambitions. Here, Kander s large-format camera appears to focus on a powerful set of re-occurring themes: vast construction projects literally towering over the landscape, men and women arrested by the rapid change around them, and bridges, many bridges, signifying the country s leap from communism to a quasi-capitalist economic system. Nadav Kander is an Israeli-born photographer, artist and director based in London.

Condition: Neu. 188 Seiten mit 77 farbige Illustrationen, Sehr guter Zustand - neuwertig - noch originalverschweißt. Bilingual / Zweisprachig : Englisch und Deutsch. Vorwort von Kofi Annan. Text von Jean-Pau Tschang, Fotos von Nadav Kander. "Nadav Kander (geboren 1961 in Israel) macht Bilder in Zeiten des Umbruchs: In seiner 200…9 mit dem renommierten Fotopreis Prix Pictet ausgezeichneten Serie fotografiert er das sich wandelnde China entlang des Jangtse und den einzelnen Menschen, der sich der Gewalt dieser Veränderungen anscheinend hilflos gegenüber sieht. Der Fluss, die Lebensader Chinas, wird in diesen Bildern zum Symbol des unaufhaltsamen Wandels. Als winzige Figur steht eine Mutter mit einem Baby auf dem Arm an einem überdimensionierten Brückenpfeiler und man fragt sich unwillkürlich, wie das Land aussehen wird, wenn dieses Kind erwachsen ist. Noch finden sich Reste des alten Chinas, in dessen Spiritualität der Strom eine bedeutende Rolle spielte, doch die idyllischen alten Gebäude und Hausboote werden durch überdimensionierte neue Wohnblocks ersetzt, die Architekturformen des Westens kopieren. Nadav Kander selbst kommt es vor, als ob dieses Land in seinem gewaltigen Streben nach Fortschritt die eigenen Wurzeln in die Vergangenheit kappt und dabei Land und Leute tief verwundet Deutscher Fotobuchpreis 2011 in Gold"(Verlagstext). Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 1832 OLeinen mit motiertem Deckelbild, 27,5 x 34,5 cm (Querformat).

Condition: Wie neu. Hatje Cantz, 2013. First edition, first printing. Mint, new, unread; still originally shrink-wrapped in publisher`s plastic foil. Perfect and ritualized: the depiction of the body in Nadav Kander`s series Bodies: 6 Women, 1 Man, or Bodies. On Black and On White. Hardcover in linen without jacket (as issued).…280 x 391 mm. 136 pages. 30 photos. Conversation with the artist: Peter Aspden, Charles Pickstone. Layout: Simon Gofton. Text in english. Perfect condition! Collector`s copy! "Nude bodies painted white, faces turned away from the viewer: this is how Nadav Kander, born 1961 in Israel, photographed the sitters in his latest series. Accessories are minimal, as is the aesthetic, yet at the same time the arrangement makes the mostly voluptuous bodies seem baroque. One is reminded of the portraits of Elizabeth I with their white lead `masks`. In Kander`s precisely lit images, with their exquisite colors, white mice run across white skin, a small bird seems tiny perched next to an odalisque. Red hair plays a role, flowing down over doll-like bodies as if it had a life of its own. Despite the abundance of flesh on display, the images do not have a superficial sense of the erotic. The lack of eye contact and the white makeup function as barriers, and the massiveness of the limbs recalls the works of Hans Bellmer or Lucian Freud. Like them, Kander offers simulacra of sensuality and questions our images of the human body as well as the concept of beauty itself." (from the publisher)***************Hatje Cantz, 2013.

Hardcover in Leinen ohne Schutzumschlag (nur so erschienen). 280 x 391 mm. 136 Seiten. 30 Fotos. Gespräch mit dem Künstler von: Peter Aspden, Charles Pickstone. Gestaltung von Simon Gofton. Perfekter Zustand! Sammler-Exemplar! "Weiß bemalte, nackte Körper, die Gesichter vom Betrachter abgewendet, so fotografiert Nadav Kander, geboren 1961 in Israel, die Modelle seiner jüngsten Serie. Die Accessoires sind spärlich, die Ästhetik ist reduziert, gleichwohl erscheint das Arrangement der meist üppigen Körper barock. Man denkt an Porträts von Elizabeth I. mit bleiweißer `Maske`. Auf Kanders präzise ausgeleuchteten Bildern von exquisiter Farbigkeit laufen weiße Mäuse über weiße Haut, ein Vögelchen hockt winzig neben einer Odaliske. Rotes Haar spielt eine Rolle, ergießt sich wie lebendig über puppenhafte Körper. Trotz der dargebotenen Fleischlichkeit wirken die Fotografien nicht vordergründig erotisch. Der fehlende Blickkontakt und die weiße Schminke fungieren als Barriere, und die Massigkeit der präsentierten Gliedmaßen erinnert an Arbeiten von Hans Bellmer oder Lucian Freud. Wie sie bietet Kander Simulakren von Sinnlichkeit und hinterfragt unser Körperbild wie Schönheitskonzept." (Verlagstext) Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 1600.

Overall a brilliant copy, especially signed! In December and early January, just before Barack Obama`s administration took office, the photographer Nadav Kander shot 52 portraits of Barack Obama`s top advisers, aides and members of his incoming administration. From the secretary to the secretary of state, the result was a fascinating picture of a group of individuals on the brink of history. "I don`t believe all that shit about `capturing the soul. It [photography] is about accuracy of portrayal. It is about who these people are and who they want to be." (Nadav Kander) The photographs, originally published in the New York Times magazine, were made extremely quick all 52 were photographed over six days in December and early January for a maximum of 20 minutes. "It was done in quite an athletic manner. I thought it would be amazing to see the tiny gestures that make someone human, the way they cock their head, the way they put their hands in their pocket. It distils your look: you`re almost staring at people. It`s an administration that`s about equality, so [we thought] let`s have the same background for the secretary of state as for the secretary who answers the phone."
