Hardback. Condizione: New. Dramatic history, lush scenery, and a colorful cast transport us to the time of Cuba's turning point - the late 1950s   Set against the tropical landscape of Cuba's countryside and the glamour of 1950s Havana, this moving story of Cuban life at a pivotal time in the country's rich history will resonate with anyone who has experienced the loss of family or homeland. It is 1958, the last year of Fulgencio Batista's dictatorship. Mike, the son of Don Miguel, a wealthy land owner and rancher, is summoned home from his MBA studies in the United States because of his father's failing health. Still recovering from the loss of his wife, Mike's return is an immediate tonic for Don Miguel. Caught between his family obligations and his desire to pursue his own dreams, Mike quickly finds himself succumbing to his father's desire for him to take over the responsibilities of running the family ranch. As Mike settles back into the life he was groomed for, Don Miguel, reinvigorated, spends more and more time socializing in Havana. Changes are happening everywhere. The government is encroaching on civil liberties and social and political upheaval is in the air. There are rumblings about Castro's guerillas organizing in the mountains. On the ranch, long-time employees of Don Miguel resent the changes that Mike is making, setting the stage for a confrontation that change the lives of everyone involved. With evocative language, vibrant characters, and explosive history My Lost Cuba pull us into fascinating time and place. It is a memorable family saga, love story and political tale.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Over the course of four decades, Sondra Gilman and Celso Gonzalez-Falla have put together a collection of photographs that is widely recognised as among the world's most important private collections. Spanning the entire history of the medium, it lacks hardly any of the names that forged this history. It comprises some of the most famous masterpieces by artists such as Eugène Atget, Robert Adams, Walker Evans, and Robert Mapplethorpe as well as works by contemporary photographers such as Cindy Sherman, Hiroshi Sugimoto, and Thomas Struth.The Musée de l'Elysée in Lausanne is one of the world's leading museums entirely dedicated to photography. A highlight in the museum's 2018 exhibition program is the show The Beauty of the Lines, featuring some 120 works from the Gilman Gonzalez-Falla collection. The coinciding book presents the selected images in visual confrontations rather than just chronologically, offering a key to their physical quality and inviting the reader to question his or her own individual experience of sensitive relationship to the photographic image. Published alongside the images are an essay exploring the range and significance of the collection and a conversation with Sondra Gilman and Celso Gonzalez-Falla.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. What makes us admire a sparsely populated photograph of two bicycles by Augusto Cantamessa? Or the striking visual effect displayed by a Depression-era Walker Evans picture of a man smoking and staring out past the lens? The beauty of a great photograph lies in its lines and their power to confront the viewer visually. Throughout history, photographers have made use of photographic line in a vast variety of ways, from the instantaneous lines of Henri Cartier-Bresson and the rational lines of the New Topographics to the diversity of lines created by the human body. Published to accompany an exhibition at the Musee de lElysee in Lausanne, The Beauty of Lines draws on a remarkable cache of photographs in the private collection of Sondra Gilman and Celso Gonzalez-Falla. Widely recognized as one of the worlds most important private collections, it spans the entire history of the medium and includes almost all the great artists canonized in its virtual hall of fame. Among the images reproduced here are famous masterpieces by Eugene Atget, Robert Adams, Walker Evans, and Robert Mapplethorpe, as well as works by contemporary artists, such as Cindy Sherman, Hiroshi Sugimoto, and Thomas Struth. The book presents the photographs in juxtaposition with one another rather than in chronological order, offering a key to their power and inviting readers to question their individual experiences of and relationship to the images. Published alongside the images is an essay exploring the range and significance of the collection and an interview with Gilman and Gonzalez-Falla. Featuring more than one hundred plates, including many in full color, The Beauty of Lines is the first book to open up and make accessible this important collection to the broader community of photographers and fans of photographic art. Features 120 images from the Sondra Gilman and Celso Gonzalez-Falla collection, one of the World's most important private photography collections, spanning the entire history of the medium.
