books by Gilles Mora     books:       The Last Photographic Heroes: American Photographers of the Sixties and Seventies2 reviews Gilles Mora Abrams Books, 2007 Snaps of the visual generation Rather cheekily, I thought, Gilles Mora kicks off his fascinating study of sixties and seventies photography with a reference to a 1958 Popular Photography magazine poll, by 234 critics, to nominate the world's ten greatest living photographers. The chosen ten, naturally famous but annoyingly for Mora did not include Walker Evans or Robert Frank (or Harry Callahan, Aaron Siskind and Paul Strand ...             Photospeak : A Guide to the Ideas, Movements, and Techniques of Photography, 1839 to the Present2 reviews Gilles Mora Abbeville Press, 1998 INTERESTING AND INVALUABLE The author, Gilles Mora, a former editor of "Cahiers de Photographie" called his book a "guide." I think it is more of an encyclopedia. Divided, as it is, into the categories of "Who, When, Where & What," the reader can easily find the principal photographers from 1839 til today ("Who"), the moment of greatest significance for a particular style or method of photography ("When"), the cities, ...             Bernard Plossu's New Mexico Gilles Mora University of New Mexico Press, 2006 Bernard Plossu, born in Vietnam in 1945, is one of today's best-known French photographers. His photos reflect locales he has visited all over the world: Senegal, Turkey, Poland, Mexico, Guatemala, and the American West. The photographs here were taken by Plossu in the late 1970s and are images of New Mexico--where the sun, the dust, the rain, the mud, the wind, the snow, the altitude (7,000 feet), and the smells forge a uniqueness.

Eugene Smith; Photographs 1934-1975 John T.

Stebbins Jr, Gilles Mora Seuil, 2002             Walker Evans the Hungry Eye2 reviews Gilles Mora Harry N. Abrams, 1993 Great Book This book is very informative of Walker Evans. It shows a wide variety of his work form portraiture to architecture, from the streets of New York to exotic places. It not only shows the works of art but also shows short blurbs about the place he was at and what was happening in his life; like why he was there and what he wanted out of the photo shoot. The part I like best about this book ...             Edward Weston: Forms of Passion5 reviews Gilles Mora Harry N. Abrams, 1995 Best Overall Volume of Edward Weston's Work Review Summary: Edward Weston was trained as a portrait photographer and expanded his vision to include many natural shapes, including seashells, nudes, vegetables, trees, landscapes, and eroded rocks. He also did a little industrial photography, where the forms he saw also revealed pure shapes of interest to him. These shapes usually had a modernist feel to them that brings to mind Plato's ...             W.Eugene Smith1 review Thames & Hudson Ltd, 1998 W.Eugene Smith An excellent book with very well printed photographs by one of the most gifted photographer.
