Text dt., engl., fr. - Mit seinen Islandbildern ist der Schweizer Fotograf Marco Paoluzzo bekannt geworden. Nach einem ersten Band mit Schwarzweiß-Photographien von Island ist jetzt ein weiteres Werk mit seinen faszinierenden Aufnahmen erschienen. Nur langsam entwickelte Paoluzzo die Liebe zu diesem Land. Mit ausschlaggebend dafür war das Licht des Nordens, das den Schwarzweißphotographen immer mehr in seinen Bann zog. Dazu kommen Wind, Regen, seltener Schnee, vor allem aber die "schwarzen Landschaften" der Insel. Mehrfach hat Paoluzzo die Insel bereist, wiederholt hat er seine Lieblingsorte aufgesucht und dort photographiert. Seine Aufnahmen scheinen dabei mit jedem Besuch einfacher, klarer und persönlicher zu werden. In diesem Band sind auch einige Aufnahmen der Faröer-Inseln enthalten. (Bucchhandl.

Photographs: Rafal Milach. Other edition: Limited edition of 50 including two prints. - „This beautiful composition of Rafał’s Milach photographs and Huldar’s Breiðfjörð text is the summary of both artists’ journey by Iceland. Rafał Milach describes the book - This story is a personal road diary I have done together with Icelandic writer Huldar Breiðfjörð. We took highway #1 the only road surrounding Iceland and drove 1450km within 10 days. We didn’t care about either the volcanic eruption that took place few weeks earlier or the economical crisis that made Iceland bankrupt. It was a trip of a local with outsider and we both tried to learn of this place on our own. And we both failed coming back with more questions than answers. “In the Car with R” was already selected as the winner of the New York Photo Awards 2011 Jury’s Choice Prize, for best overall picture or series. A dummy of the book was also given a Photography Book Now 2011 for the best documentary publication.“ (http://www.anzenbergergallery.com). - „It is an extraordinarily well produced book.“ (Alec Soth). - „The publication is extremely inspiring. The lecture gives more questions than answers about contemporary Iceland. ”In the car with the R” is a testimony conducted trip. And as you probably remember the goal is not important in itself, but the way we are going to him.“ (M. Grabowiecki, Fotopolis.pl).
Text dt. - Seit mehr als 25 Jahren dokumentiert Ragnar Axelsson (RAX) den traditionellen Lebensstil der Menschen in Island, Grönland und der Färöer Inseln und die extremen Lebensbedingungen im immerwährenden Eis. Die Gesichter der Menschen sind gezeichnet von den Spuren des harten Lebens, aber auch von tiefer Achtung vor der Natur. Axelsson dokumentiert diese Lebenswelt und ihre Veränderungen durch den Klimawandel in herausragenden Schwarz-Weiß-Bildern von monumentaler Kraft. Sie zeigen die Natur von ihrer unerbittlichsten Seite und fesseln gleichzeitig durch ihre atemberaubende Schönheit. (Buchh. Lindemann Stuttgart, 10.2016).
