本书是布迪厄生前编写的最后一部民族社会学著作，2002年3月，在其逝世后一个月，本书于巴黎正式出版。全书由布迪厄的三篇论文构成，围绕法国农村中愈加普遍的长子单身现象，分别写作于其学术生涯的不同时期。布迪厄指出，这三篇文章的汇集，清晰地反映了其社会学理论发展的逻辑轨迹。从对贝亚恩农村社会的田野考察，到与结构主义方法的决裂，以及对于在一个统一的婚姻市场中的象征资本和习性的分析，本书给予了我们一种社会学和人类学的视角和洞察力，来看待职业、社会阶层和婚姻之间的互动，以及它们对于一个小型社会的影响。舞会散场，单身者三三两两，逐渐离去。最终，布迪厄用一种小说家的眼光和敏锐，向我们描述了20世纪法国传统农业社会的危机和崩溃。

阿兰·罗伯-格里耶的这本书与他迄今为止所发表的作品有着极大的差异。原因可能在于这不是一部小说。但它果真是一部自传吗？众所周知，小说的语言不同于作家日常交流所使用的语言。在这本书里，可以说是罗伯-格里耶本人在说话（谈作为小说家的自己，谈他的童年，等等）。同我们已经习惯了的他以往的作品相比，书中的文字似乎多了一些修饰，因而不那么“难以卒读”。同时，这本书又是一幅由一个个片断组成的大胆的编织物。这些片断取自作者童年生活中的恐惧或情欲的快感，取自作者家庭内部妙趣横生的轶事，取自由战争或在极右环境中发现的纳粹暴行而导致的精神创伤。这些无足轻重的琐事、温馨的画面、空隙和极其巨大的事件交织在一起，将再一次使读者不由自主地把自身存在的不确定性与整个现代文学的不确定性恰如其分地统一起来。

3030: New Photography in China
TThis fully illustrated survey presents the work of 30 of China's most exciting photographers under 30. Here for the first time is presented China’s new generation, unburdened by ideology and immersed in the economic and social changes that have transformed China over the past 20 years. From internationally exhibiting artists to photo-journalists, video makers and web bloggers, their images reveal a diverse range of styles that reflect the influence not only of tradition and politics but also foreign media channels and the development of a home-grown pop culture encompassing TV, music, advertising and fashion.
In almost all cases it is the city that provides the inspiration, whether it is Guangzhou in the south, Shanghai in the east or Beijing in the north. And it is partly these regional differences and their influence on each other that lends contemporary photography in China its freshness and strength.
Essays by leading scholars and curators from Beijing and Guangzhou introduce the photographers and their work. For students and enthusiasts of contemporary China and photography ‘3030: New Photography in China’ reveals an exciting new force in world art

The photographers represented here have all belonged to Magnum, a collective founded in 1947 to give photojournalists artistic freedom and control over thr eight s to their work. Magnum's archives are a repository of the masterpieces of photography of the past half-century.

In this remarkable publication, the celebrated photographic artist Wolfgang Tillmans draws together a comprehensive overview of his work to date, incorporating over 2,400 images. Tillmans's breadth of vision is captivating: whether as still life, portrait, landscape or abstract composition it challenges and expands the viewer's visual and temporal awareness.

More then those of any other living photographer, Sebastiao Salgado's images of the world's poor stand in tribute to the human condition. Salgado defines his work as "militant photography" dedicated to "the best comprehension of man"; over the decades he has bestowed great dignity on the most isolated and neglected among us-- from famine-stricken refugees in the Sahel to the indigenous peoples of South America. With "Workers," Salgado brings us a global epic that transcends mere image making to become an affirmation of the enduring spirit of working men and women. In this volume, three hundred fifty duotone photographs form an archaeological perspective of the activities that have defined hard work from the Stone Age through the Industrial Revolution to the present. With images of the infernal landscape of an Indonesian sulfur mine, the drama of traditional Sicilian tuna fishing, and the staggering endurance of Brazilian gold miners, Salgado unearths layers of visual information to reveal the ceaseless human activity at the core of modern civilization. "Workers" presents its subjects on several interactive levels: Salgado's introductory text expands his passionate photographic iconography, and extended captions, also written by Salgado, provide a historical and factual framework. Evoking the monumentality of Baroque sculpture, images of oil-fire fighters extinguishing Kuwaiti wells are informed by data detailing this perilous venture. Heroic photographs of Cuban and Brazilian peasants harvesting sugarcane are enriched by an overview of the history of the sugar trade, which documents centuries of colonialist exploitation. On the eve of the millennium, "Workers" serves as anelegy for the passing of traditional methods of labor and production. Yet its ultimate message is one of endurance and hope: entire Indian families serve as construction crews to build a dam that will bring life to their land, and laborers using contemporary technology connect England and France through Eurotunnel. Honoring the timeless and indomitable spirit of the manual laborer, "Workers" renders the human condition with honesty and respect.

In 1971, Japanese photographer Daido Moriyama took a trip to New York City with Tadanori Yokoo. He stayed at the Chelsea Hotel and spent his days in The Museum of Modern Art Photography Study Center looking at pictures taken by Weegee. He shot 100 rolls of film with a half-frame camera, yielding 70 images per roll. Some of those pictures are presented here.

Photographs have a strange and powerful way of shaping the way we see the world and influencing our perceptions of reality. To demonstrate the unique and profound influence on culture and society that photographs have, Photo Icons puts the most important landmarks in the history of photography under the microscope.

Each chapter focuses on a single image which is described and analyzed in detail, in aesthetic, historical, and artistic contexts.

Volume I begins with the very first permanent images (Nicéphore Niépce's 1827 8-hour-exposure rooftop picture and Louis Daguerre's famous 1839 street scene) and takes the reader up through the avant-garde photography of the 1920s.

Volume II explores works such as Dorothea Lange's Migrant Mother (1936) and Robert Doisneau's Kiss in Front of City Hall (1950), up through Martin Parr's 'New European photography.

When those in the magazine industry need inspiration, they look to Purple. It has influenced countless other magazines and spawned trends that have trickled down through all levels of culture. To celebrate its fifteenth anniversary, this volume brings together the best in fashion, art, and culture from Purple’s illustrious history. Purple revolutionized fashion photography in the nineties by commissioning fine artists to shoot fashion editorials. What resulted was a raw, improvisational aesthetic, which continues to exert its power today. Many of our most promising artists contribute to Purple’s pages, including Terry Richardson, Juergen Teller, Jack Pierson, Richard Prince, John Currin, and Vanessa Beecroft. Among the celebrity muses who appear regularly are Kim Gordon, Chloe Sevigny, Kate Moss, Catherine Deneuve, and Vincent Gallo. Along with images, the book also presents essays by such renowned writers as Glenn O’Brien, Gary Indiana, and Dave Hickey. These texts further the book’s larger purpose: to chart the development of art and fashion during the past fifteen years. This is the ultimate deluxe collection for serious fashion, art, photography, graphic design, and magazine aficionados.

Robert Frank is one of the most influential of all post-war photographers. Pioneering a revolutionary approach to photography and filmmaking, he combines autobiographical and poetic elements to produce straight black-and-white images that transcend the specific. Speaking of universal experience, Frank has said, "I'm trying to forget easy photo, trying to make something from within." He adds, "Time moves on and never stops or waits." Often involving a progression through a series of images, his work is structured like a musical sequence, creating storylines that resonate beyond the frozen moment of any single photograph.
Storylines accompanies an exhibition highlighting Frank's experimental use of narrative in photography and film. The exhibition consists of his films and photographs, including Polaroids, contact sheets, and recent digital stills. Photographs from locations as diverse as Peru, London, Wales, Coney Island, and Chicago, appear along with several artist's books. Essays by Philip Brookman and Sam Shepard. Hardcover, 9.75 x 11 in. / 240 pgs / 25 color and 225 duotones.

By 1970, the hippie dream of the 60s was dead — the soundtrack of the revolution had become a multimillion-dollar industry. Glitter tried to save music's soul, but was too commercial to be cutting edge for long. Then, in 1974, a rescue movement arrived. Three chords, black jeans, a pair of shades, and a whole lot of attitude made music that matched the facts of life on its home ground, mid-70sNew York City's East Village. The initiators of punk, Richard Hell, Tom Verlaine, and Patti Smith had one foot in nineteenth-century French symbolist poetry and the other in the raw sound of their predecessors such as the Velvet Underground. This first-hand account of a little-documented era features luminaries such as Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Debbie Harry, Divine, Devo, and the New York Dolls, and tells of the gigs at CBGB hitting the news as Warhol and his glittering crew descended. What began as a unique blend of fin-de-siècle ennui and razor-sharp rock became anarchic frenzy and safety pins, overrun by gutter decadence and stupid-chic. With Malcolm McLaren hijacking the scene's momentum, the Blank Generation plunged into excess and eventual ruin, its survivors making the leap into mainstream.

What started out as a few Montreal drug addicts scamming welfare make-work programs back in 1994 has become a global empire of hedonism known simply as VICE. From a 16-page newspaper about punk bands and violence to stores, a clothing line, VICE Films, VICE TV, VICE Records, viceland.com, etc., VICE has become much more than a way for three guys to get laid. It's become a lifestyle, a degrading and disgusting lifestyle of sex and drugs and rock and roll and death. This book is a collection of the irreverent, hilarious and downright scary gonzo journalism that brought three losers from the crack houses of Le Plateau to the deluxe apartments of Manhattan.
