    • The ever-growing Olbricht collection, located in Essen, Germany, has become one of the world's largest stockpiles of contemporary work--and, given its size, one of the least known. Rockers Island presents a representative selection of the works that collector Thomas Olbricht has been gathering over the last 15 years. These paintings, sculptures, photographs and installations come from artists as diverse as Diane Arbus, Stephan Balkenhol, Joseph Beuys, Maurizio Cattelan, Peter Doig, Andreas Gursky, Damien Hirst, Sarah Lucas, Elizabeth Peyton, Richard Prince, Daniel Richter, Ed Ruscha, Norbert Schwontkowski and Cindy Sherman. Rockers Island offers several different artistic and chronological approaches to the material, clearing fresh views, constructing innovative constellations and posing new questions for contemporary art. This richly illustrated volume provides insight into a fascinating collection.

      Robert Frank not only ranks among the most important of living photographers but is also widely recognized as a seminal figure in the development of experimental cinema. And yet, the continuity and consistency of his work in both photography and film has been barely explored. "Hold still-keep going" fills this obvious void by illustrating and analyzing the underlying aesthetics that have guided Frank's work in both media. From the very outset of his career, Frank distrusted the single photographic image and its claim to freeze moments of time and again he gravitated to the moving image and serial photography, be it in book form or as a panel of photographs. Reproducing more than 100 collages, film stills and serial works, this volume will certainly become a new standard publication on Robert Frank, innovative photographer and experimental filmmaker. The book also contains an illustrated bibliography and biography featuring dozens of previously unpublished images of Robert Frank, his family and his friends. Published in conjunction with a major traveling exhibition, this is an essential addition to all photography and film collections.

      Erwin Blumenfeld (1897-1969) was one of the most influential photographers of the 20th century. His work offers a unique perspective on the society and politics of the 1930s through the 60s. This text broadens our understanding of Blumenfeld's innovations, reuniting all the media used by the artist throughout his long career: drawing, photography, photomontage and collage.

      The Museum Folkwang and the Wüstenrot Stiftung organized a symposium in order to discuss the future prospects of photography that will be produced almost exclusively digitally. The symposium will address how photographs and collections of photographs will be redefined in a transnational perspective. This international conference was held at Museum Folkwang, April 27/28, 2012.

      A Star is Born traces how stars on both sides of the camera shape the image of musicians and rock bands. Glamour portraits, journalistic documents of live performances and PR materials from record labels form the core of this publication. The book includes photographs by Ron Galella, Annie Leibovitz, Mark Seliger, Richard Avedon, Daniel Kramer, Mick Rock and Jerry Schatzberg, all of them stars behind the camera. They have all made a significant contribution to turning rock stars into legends and creating their mythology. Their subjects have included Elvis Presley, Little Richard, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Frank Zappa, David Bowie, and bands from the Rolling Stones to the Beatles, the White Stripes to Coldplay. The book also includes photographs that highlight the cult-like admiration surrounding musical instruments and sound technology.

    • Man beholds in the animal a part of himself and his relation to the world. Photographs show the animal as a true friend and a tool, as a dignified being and a monstrous creature. Animal pictures are reflections of the times in which they are made - whether it's a big-game hunt in the 19th century or a recent shoot for a cat food commercial. There are innumerable occasions for photographing animals: for research purposes and as trophies; to document what man has grown fond of or has exterminated; to arouse emotions or to create a work of art. This book presents the photographed animal from photography's beginnings up to the present in a depth and variety never seen before. This unique selection brings together work from the daguerreotype to modern press photographs, from amateur snapshots to images captured by famous photographers, covering practically all aspects of animal photography.
