Daniel Masclet - "NUS - La Beauté de la Femme" (1933) - "The catalogue contained female nudes by wellknown photographers, and some who were less so: two compositions by Man Ray. "Le Violin d'Ingres" and one of his innovative "solarizations", which transformed the photographs into drawings; five works by Dritikol from the early 1930s; a refined torso by Laure Albin-Guillot; a remarkable image of a dancer showing split movements, by the well-known female fashion photographer Yva (who would later teach the secrets of the nude to the very young Helmut Newton); an image using a negative effect by Moholy-Nagy, and three female nudes by Platt Lynes. Male nudes were still barely known to the general public at this time" (A. Bertolotti) - new at josefchladek.com

Oooh. Love that. Must keep that in mind for herself's next birthday - Leibovitz is one of her favs.

I remember getting Magnum Magnum back in the early 2000s, that was some weight too. Nothing beats the joy of looking through a chunky photography book.

Sebastiao Salgado's Genesis is my own favourite, makes this world look utterly stunning and alien and fantastical.

I had the pleasure of knowing Paul when he attended ICP.

“I started buying African photo books, with the idea of sharing them with young photographers back home, but as my collection grew, it dawned on me that I could create a library dedicated to photography and visual education, so I started reaching out to booksellers for donations. I also received donations from private galleries and collectors,” says Ninson.

Another photographer here. I run a few workshops and share advice on my website. And I wrote a lovely book a little while back.

I picked this up on a passing whim for pretty cheap and kinda blown away by it. Great photography, some rather harrowing. Fascinating text.

I love looking at photographs and experiencing what other people capture through the lens. Add to the fact that Patti Smith is amazing and has had a fascinating life. I love her Instagram where she posts small glimpses into her world it’s quite fantastic! Looking forward to immersing myself in Patti Smith’s A Book of Days. @bookstodon #books #bookstodon #photographybooks #reading
