Celebrate what it means to be young and filled with possibility and passion. From Jordan Matter, author of Dancers Among Us with more than 100,000 copies in print and a social media star with over 800,000 followers, comes his most irrepressible project yet, Born to Dance. Using his special gift for photographing dancers in the midst of daily life and focusing it on kids between the ages of 4 and 17, Matter captures a sense of exuberance and joy - what it must feel like to be a young dancer and perform the amazing, gravity-defying things that your body can do. Every girl and boy in the book feels that they were born to dance, and they imbue every common action - hanging at the playground, walking on the beach, eating in the cafeteria, waiting in line at the movies, playing a game with friends - with beauty, humour, and surprise. They twirl, they bounce, they stand on point, and they flip. They bend backward at an impossible angle, leap so high it makes you gasp, and jump in a way that it seems they're levitating. The result, through Jordan Matter's incredible ability to capture the exact right moment, is a visual appreciation of childlike joy and sadness, resilience and energy. Chapters are introduced with Matter's charming personal stories and include "When I Grow Up," "Do They Like Me?" and "I Can Do It." Photos are accompanied by inspiring quotes from the dancers, making it a perfect gift for every dance fan and the parents, teachers, friends, and family who support them. Telling a story that makes people gasp and smile through photography is Jordan Matter's mission. Born To Dance does this by conveying memorable, unique, extraordinary moments and rites of childhood through amazing, often gravity-defying dance positions. Dancers from 4-17 enact sleepovers, first crushes, the joy of an ice cream cone, feeling left out, having a best friend, going swimming and many more joys and trials of childhood.

Australske Nick Cave har haft status af regulært ­rockikon gennem et par årtier – men først, da han var i 50’erne, steg han for alvor op fra kultfænomen til super­stjerne. Ikke mindst i Danmark, hvor Caves ­udsolgte koncert for 16.000 fans i oktober 2017 talte sit tydelige sprog om et sent, folkeligt gennembrud. Himlen over Brighton – Nick Cave på landevejen 2008-18 er en personlig og levende dokumentation af de seneste ti år i Caves karriere. Ikke en biografi eller et akademisk essay skrevet i bagklogskabens lys, men der­imod en række snapshots af forfatteren, rockstjernen og poeten Cave på scenen. Indfanget midt i sin udfoldelse, i en serie tekster og billeder, som til sammen tegner et enestående nærportræt af Cave og hans arbejde. Forfatteren har fulgt Cave tæt i tyve år og skrevet om ham de seneste ti og præsenterer her såvel reportager og koncert­oplevelser som store interviews med både Cave og hans nærmeste samarbejdspartnere. Og ­Morten ­Rygaards mester­lige fotos af hovedpersonen – de taler for sig selv. Et unikt, dansk nærbillede af en af rockens vigtigste skikkelser.

Kinbaku is the Japanese word for rope bondage: In the west it is often referred to as Shibari. Although it originated in Japan as a means of restraint and torture, during the last hundred years it has also been used as an activity which gives emotional, physical, and visual pleasure for the participants. Nawashi Murakawa, the Artistic Director of the annual London festival of the Art of Japanese Rope Bondage provides the historical context for the practice which goes back 12000 years. He also explains how Kinbaku has developed as a dramatic art form which is performed in front of audiences in many countries. This series of ten chapters demonstrates how the art of rope bondage has developed in the UK, Russia, Canada and the USA as well as presenting a modern day live performance in Tokyo. The final section shows more traditional Japanese techniques. Chapters with Japanese contributors provide the text in Japanese as well as in English. The stunning and surprising photographs reveal the beauty and daring of the models, and their written accounts together with those of the photographers and rope experts give an insight into the lifestyle of those who practice this particular fetish.

Forfattere skriver ofte deres ord på udvalgte steder. De fleste skriver mange vilkårlige steder, de færreste arbejder livet igennem på det samme sted. Skrivesteder, kunne man kalde dem. Karen Blixen er én blandt meget få forfattere, der har to geografiske lokaliteter uløseligt knyttet til sit navn: Kenya og Danmark. Begge steder er livgivende kilder til hendes værk. Begge steder har sat sine spor direkte og indirekte i bøgerne, men stort set hele hendes litterære værk blev til i arbejdsværelset på Rungstedlund. Det blev hendes sted – Skrivestedet.Bogens forfatter Marianne Wirenfeldt Asmussen har sammen med fotograf Kurt Rodahl Hoppe opsøgt alle stederne, alle detaljerne i Karen Blixens huse i Kenya og Danmark, og søger således at afdække og aftvinge stederne deres betydning, egenart og skønhed. Af og til er de nye farvebilleder bragt i dialog med gamle sort-hvide fotografier fra dengang, Blixen var der, eller de er enkelte steder ledsaget af citater fra forfatterskabet.Skriftdesigner Trine Rask har specialdesignet skriften Karen til denne udgivelse efter studier af Karen Blixens håndskrift. Den benyttes til bogens store citater fra Blixens forfatterskab.Marianne Wirenfeldt Asmussen (f. 1945) er kunsthistoriker og forfatter, grundlægger og tidl. leder af Karen Blixen Museet på Rungstedlund.Kurt Rodahl Hoppe (f. 1961) er fotograf. Har illustreret en lang række bøger om arkitektur og kulturhistorie. I 2017 udgav han fotobogen Bogsteder.

For the press tour following the record-breaking release of Greta Gerwig's award-winning, acclaimed Barbie movie, producer and star Margot Robbie and her stylist Andrew Mukamal immersed themselves in some of Barbie's most iconic outfits and curated vintage pieces, then approached designers, from Giorgio Armani to Donatella Versace, to create looks inspired by the doll-size originals. Many of these looks were not seen as the official Barbie press tour was cut short--so Margot and Andrew worked with renowned fashion photographer Craig McDean to shoot her in the looks exactly as they were curated: Schiaparelli in Los Angeles, Vivienne Westwood in London, vintage Chanel with matching Steamline luggge at the airport, and beyond..

A contemporary reimagining of Alex Webb¿s long out-of-print, limited edition book Dislocations. Recognised as a pioneer of colour photography, Alex Webb is able to juxtapose gesture, colour and contrasting cultural tensions into a single beguiling frame, resulting in evocative images that elevate fractured and multilayered meanings. His book Dislocations, first published in 1998 as a limited edition accordion book with Canon Laser prints (then considered state of the art), brings together pictures from the many disparate locations over Webb¿s oeuvre, meditating on the act of photography as a form of dislocation in itself. Spurred by the pandemic, and its world of closed borders and disrupted travel, Webb reconsidered the impossibility of creating this series of images: the result is this reimagined edition of Dislocations, which includes new photographs taken in the twenty-five years since the original. This characteristically exquisite book brings a fresh perspective to Webb¿s expansive catalogue, and speaks to the palpable sense of dislocation in our time.
