Encuadernación de tapa dura. Condizione: Nuevo. 1ª Edición. If you're familiar with Japan, you'll know a type of bar called a snack bar. They're found all over the country, in big cities and small towns alike. They typically consist of a counter and some stools, maybe a booth or two, usually run by a middle-aged woman, the mama, or less frequently, a man, the master. The clientele is generally made up of regulars. Unlike a regular bar, where a first-time customer simply walks in and sits down, the etiquette at a snack bar for a newcomer is to ask the mama for permission to enter. The entertainment, if you can call it that, aside from a simple drinks menu, consists of chatting with the mama, mingling with other customers, and karaoke. At the time of writing, they're considered the least trendy places in the country to have a drink.A few years ago, while traveling around Japan, I noticed that every city seemed to have a snack shop called "Sakura." Sakura, or cherry blossom, is such a common name for a business that it's perhaps a little unimaginative. Though somehow it seemed to fit with how unfashionable these places were. It really did seem like every city had one, and when I checked with the Japan Snack Owners Association, they confirmed that, in fact, among their members, Snack Sakura was the most common name. So I decided to try to visit and photograph as many as I could, all over the country, from Okinawa to Hokkaido. At first, I simply stumbled upon Snack Sakuras without looking for them. Once I decided to try and find them, things got quite complicated. Many of them don't have phone numbers or a website. In the case of those that do, when you arrive you discover they've changed their name, or the building has been demolished, or they closed down and never reopened. But little by little, I started to make progress. After six years of traveling the country, I've photographed snacks called "Sakura" in more than half of Japan's forty-seven prefectures. "Snack Sakura" presents this world of snacks that isn't exactly "hidden," but only becomes visible when you look at it from a certain angle.

paperback. Condizione: Good. Lambot, Ian; Girard, Greg (illustratore). Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

GIRARD, GREG: Phantom Shanghai The Magenta Foundation HB 2007 First Edition ISBN 13: 9780973973914 ISBN 10: 0973973919 "Shanghai?a city in the process of dismantling its history to accommodate China's new cosmopolitan vision of itself."?Greg Girard. As Shanghai modernizes and seeks acceptance as an international city, buildings and neighborhoods that were once preserved simply by lack of intervention are now being purposefully demolished. Phantom Shanghai is a spectacular look at a Shanghai that won't survive the vision the country has for itself. Since the late 90's Girard has been photographing the city's buildings, shops, hutongs, homes, and neighborhoods, many of which have since disappeared. This stunning photographic journey is a look at present-day Shanghai. NEW still in publisher's original shrink wrap and never opened. For an additional look at a vanished Chinese city, see "Beijing Hutong 101 Photos" by Xu Yong.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Second Edition. Toronto, Magenta Foundation, 2017. Hardcover in pictorial boards. Second Edition. 180 pages with numerous color photographic images throughout. BOOK CONDITION: Fine; a solid, tight, clean copy. Greg Girard's photographs of Vancouver from the 1970s and early 1980s show us the city's final days as a port town at the end of the railway line. Soon after Vancouver began to be noticed by the wider world (Expo 86 is generally agreed on as the pivotal moment), the city began refashioning itself as an urban resort on nature's doorstep and attracting attention as a destination for real estate investment. At that time, long before post-9/11 security concerns sealed off the working waterfront from the city, many of Vancouver's downtown and east side streets ended at the waterfront, an area filled with commercial fishing docks, cargo terminals, and bars and cafes for waterfront workers and sailors. Pawn-shop windows downtown displayed outboard motors, chainsaws and fishing gear. Wandering these streets, living in cheap hotels, Girard photographed the workaday (and night) world of the city where he grew up. The photographs in Under Vancouver 1972-1982 were made before Girard began earning a living as a magazine photographer, later establishing a formal practice as an artist. They reveal an early interest in the hidden and the overlooked, the use of color film at night, and the extended photographic inquiry of a specific place, all of which became signature features of later books such as City of Darkness and City of Darkness Revisited (about the infamous Kowloon Walled City), Phantom Shanghai and Hanoi Calling. Under Vancouver 1972-1982 is the first comprehensive collection of Girard's early photographs of Vancouver. Made in and of the moment, a young photographer's earliest engagements (often featuring the underside of the city), the pictures now form an unintended photographic record of a Vancouver that has all but disappeared.
