A vital exploration of postrevolution Cuban photography, tracing the evolution of artists’ perspectives and strategies while offering rare insights for US audiences

Daniel M: Navigating the Waves

Navigating the Waves

Contemporary Cuban Photography

The first publication dedicated to the house of Chanel and its creations as reported in Vogue, featuring iconic illustrations and photography from throughout the magazine's history and across its international editions. Vogue talent-spotted the work of a young Gabrielle Chanel as early as the 1910s and continued to report on the designer through the decades, from her seminal 'little black dress' to the most luxurious haute couture creations. From 1983, Karl Lagerfeld's re-imagining of the brand also found pride of place in the lauded magazine, inspiring some of the world's greatest stylists and photographers across the international editions of Vogue. Chanel in Vogue includes two volumes: the first volume is dedicated to the era of Gabrielle Chanel, and the second focuses on the work of her successors, Karl Lagerfeld and Virginie Viard, and up to the present day. This beautifully produced publication gathers together the inspirational editorials dreamt up by world-famous fashion illustrators and photographers of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, from Edward Steichen, Horst P. Horst, George Hoyningen-Huene, Irving Penn and Helmut Newton, to Peter Lindbergh, Ellen von Unwerth, Annie Leibovitz, Steven Meisel and many more. Featuring iconic images as well as lesser-known photography and illustration, this book is a trove of stunning visual material, granting readers unparalleled access to the more than a century's worth of fashion imagery. Published as two volumes in a slipcase, this high-end, large-format package is the definitive book on the fashion of Chanel as seen through the pages of the world's most influential fashion magazine.

In the 21st century the photographic image is increasingly integral to everyday communications, while, simultaneously, the culture of fame is participated in and understood by almost everyone.

This compact visual journey through Asia is unique and unusual.&nbsp;It explores all 35 countries in Asia between Turkey and Japan – by following 16 colors! The myriad images in this book are delightfully arranged by color. The meaning that each color has in Asia is explained with a short essay and then illustrated with hundreds of examples from traditional and ceremonial use. Forget postcard cliches, the images in this book depict rarely seen rituals, and disappearing traditions in remote tribal locations throughout Asia. Following the colors is an offbeat way to look at other cultures, and a delightful way to visit this very diverse continent where half of humanity lives. It is full of amazing costumes, and astounding architecture, and bizarre ceremonies, as well as extraordinary everyday artifacts – all unexpectedly arranged by color! It is hard to page through it without a smile.

America Then and Now

An exploration of Cuba’s emerging digital culture and Cubans’ creation of grassroots networks, digital black markets, and online spaces for public debate Until just a few years ago, Cuba was one of the least-connected countries in the world. But as digital technology has become increasingly available, Cubans have found inventive ways to work around such remaining barriers as slow speeds, high costs, and inadequate infrastructure. In Island in the Net, Steffen Köhn examines Cuba’s nascent digital culture and how it has reconfigured the relationship between the state and its citizens. Köhn shows that through innovations including “sneakernets” (the physical transfer of information by flash drives and other devices), digital black markets, and online spaces for political debates, Cubans have successfully challenged the government’s monopoly on media and public discourse. Drawing on multisited ethnographic research, Köhn documents Cuba’s digital awakening, from the introduction of accessible Wi-Fi in 2015 to the social media–fueled protests in July 2021. Cubans’ community-driven digital innovations, he suggests, could be models for potential alternatives to the current Big Tech–dominated internet. Each chapter in Island in the Net is accompanied by a multimodal anthropology work: a video game, interactive installations, video art, an ethnographic documentary, and an expanded cinema installation. These unique media, created with Cuban artist Nestor Siré and other local collaborators, accessible to readers via a QR code, bring the book’s argument vividly to life.

Digital Culture in Post-Castro Cuba

Island in the Net

An extremely rare and intimate look into the extraordinary life and death of legendary A$AP Mob founder A$AP Yams and the internationally acclaimed music and art collective that includes luminaries A$AP Rocky and A$AP Ferg. Never before has the history been told in words and pictures. As Forbes once said, “Hanging with ASAP Mob…is unlike any other experience in music.” This is the experience. A$AP Yams is one of the most influential figures in hip hop history. From his high school-aged A&amp;R work with Jim Jones' legendary Diplomats Records, to his pioneering role at the then-nascent intersection between hip hop and the internet with his #RNT Tumblr account, to the revolutionary geographically-agnostic sound of his early production for the A$AP Mob, Yams (née Steven Rodriguez) irrevocably changed the cultural and musical landscape for generations to come. Featuring hundreds of little and never-before-seen exclusive photographs, A$AP Yams: Making of a Mob explores the founding and history of one of the most iconic collectives of this young century. Produced in concert with the A$AP Foundation charity, all royalties will be donated to the Foundation's mandate of community outreach, food security, and drug education for the youth of New York City.

Digital Culture & Society

Technologies and technological futures are always socially situated, relational, and enmeshed in (dominant) narratives of societal sense-making, which have the power to bring future ideas into material existence. The issue brings together articles exploring popular techno-futures from international and interdisciplinary perspectives, including cultural and media studies, science and technology studies, and related disciplines. The contributors decenter the discussion on socio-technical futures and the role of popular culture, aesthetics and media in their (re)production by focusing on societal tech-future discourses from global popular perspectives.

History in 15

Photographs are more than just illustrations of a moment in time, they offer a powerful way to interpret and understand the past like no other historical source can. U.S. History in 15 Photographs introduces this power through 15 iconic and lesser-known photographs representing key eras in American History. Taking the reader from Reconstruction and Westward Expansion, to the Roaring Twenties and the World Wars, right up to Modern American Culture, it offers a refreshing, visual account of American history. This volume reorients photography as a major source for understanding the past, expanding not only the stories that we tell, but the way we tell them. Teaching students how to understand, contextualize, and interpret historic photography, U.S. History in 15 Photographs centers diverse stories about the American experience by exploring topics around race, class, gender, disability, the environment, and social justice. The scholars who contributed to this volume show that photographs are more just illustrations from the past, but foundational sources with surprising revelations about the past.
