A photographic celebration of the great Spanish city, from Alfonso to Thomas StruthThis volume features more than 150 photographs by some of the greatest names in photography, both Spanish and international, together with an exhaustive essay by the writer Antonio Muñoz Molina on Madrid's illustrious history as a subject for photography. It includes the brilliant photographs of Alfonso, perhaps the greatest graphic chronicler of Madrid at the beginning of the 20th century; the prewar and wartime images of Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa and Gerda Taro; the postwar portraits of William Klein, Francesc Català-Roca and Ramón Masats, among others; the post-Franco developing society immortalized by photographers from Spain and elsewhere such as Gianni Ferrari; the mythical images of the Movida in Madrid by Alberto García-Alix; and the cultural and economic environment of the 21st century through the eyes of Cristina García Rodero and Thomas Struth.

Lenscratch - Contemporary Themes in Photography

A beautifully arresting photographic record of North American coaling towers, which once fueled steam locomotives and powered the country. A fine art photography must-have for railroad enthusiasts and anyone interested in the industrial golden era. In 1906, America commenced a major railroad modernization project, driven by massive industrial era investment and development. A lasting symbol of this time in history remains today: the imposing coaling towers that pepper the country and which once held the coal that powered steam locomotives. Over the course of five years and 20,000 miles, photographer Jeff Brouws documented these towers. Silent Monoliths tells their story. The towers, built of concrete, a modern material with historical roots traceable to the Roman aqueducts, were constructed to replace aging (and less fire-retardant and less efficient) wooden coaling wharves and chutes. As the railroads transitioned from steam to diesel in the late 1940s and throughout the 1950s, most of these coaling towers slipped into obsolescence—some demolished, others “retired-in-place” and left standing. As a result of the latter, many examples of these sculptural, architectonic remnants of industrial brawn stand in silence across North America—from Flomaton, Alabama, to the northernmost reaches of Ontario, Canada; as far west as Glenns Ferry, Idaho, to the eastern seaboard in New Haven, Connecticut. Essays from industrial and railroad historian John Hankey and art historian Marcella Hackbardt illuminate the significance of these otherworldly relics. In the spirit of Hilla and Bernd Becher, Brouws’ photographic portfolio presents over 105 examples of these austere monoliths, conveying their unique place in cultural history.

The Coaling Tower Project

Silent Monoliths

Designers seek moments of creative bliss when everything aligns, stress dissolves, and decisions flow effortlessly. These 'in the zone' experiences keep creatives inspired. This book uncovers the dynamic nature of the design process, shedding light on the various modes of thinking that shape creative work.The design process is often taught through a linear framework: define the problem, do the research, generate ideas, prototype, test, and refine. This structure offers a shared language across disciplines-from architecture to fashion design-providing a roadmap for clarity and progress. However, as any practicing designer knows, the real process is far more fluid. With time and experience, designers learn to embrace the nonlinear nature of their work. Iteration becomes second nature, and space is made for unexpected, creative leaps-spontaneous breakthroughs where new connections emerge. These moments arise from the intersection of conscious and unconscious thought, resulting in surprising and powerful ideas. Within this intersection, the 'beautiful mess' of the designer's natural state emerges. This mess isn't disorder-it's the dynamic interplay between structured methods and spontaneous inspiration, revealing the fascinating tangle of creative thinking. This book celebrates that vibrant, messy process. Through rich photography of everyday studios and thoughtful conversations with artists, designers, and makers from across disciplines, it offers an intimate glimpse into how ideas are formed and refined. Whether you're a student, an emerging creative, or an experienced practitioner, this book invites you to recognize-and embrace-the unique nature of your own design journey, and find inspiration in the glorious chaos of making.

Anatomy of The Ship

HJMS Fuso was designed in 1911, the first Japanese super-dreadnought within the "8 x 8" program. She was the first of four twin battleships with her sister ship, Yamashiro and the "improved Fuso-class" Ise and Hyuga. Commissioned in 1915, Fuso, with 30,600 tons trial displacement and twelve 356mm guns in her main armament, was the biggest and most powerful battleship in the world. In twenty-nine years of service, Fuso underwent two major reconstructions and modernizations. Her distinctive silhouette with the highest pagoda tower in the Imperial Navy, was visible in many operations of the Imperial Japanese Grand Fleet during the Pacific War. This book compares Fuso with Yamashiro showing the differences in the way that the two ships were designed and equipped. Both ships met their demise during the battle of Leyte Gulf when they went down in the Surigao Strait, targeted by torpedoes and gunfire from US battleships and cruisers. Janusz Skulski's anatomies of three renowned ships of the 20th century Japanese navy are among the most comprehensive of the Anatomy series with hundreds of meticulously researched drawings of the ships. This new edition is a genuine "Super Anatomy" containing the most detailed renditions of these ships ever seen.
