"Paolo Roversi is known internationally for his romantic, intense, and ethereal fashion images and portraits — images that quiver on the edge of their own seemingly fragile existence. A typical Roversi photograph appears as if captured in the process — it develops on the page right before our very eyes or, depending on your perspective, might simply vanish into the ether. Since 1980 Roversi has worked primarily in 8-by-10 Polaroid, and rarely on location. Studio is a milestone in his burgeoning bibliography. The book, designed as a series of gatefolds, appears to be a collection of empty pages at first glance. The experience of looking is akin to that of peeling away the leaves of a Polaroid — out of the blackness, an image is revealed as if by magic. The images collected here — a self-portrait of the artist and a portrait of the place that stands at the center of his work — represent nearly two decades of work and are a mix of both the published and the highly personal: landscapes, portraits, fashion images, and photos of the studio itself"--http://www.steidlville.com/books/168-Studio.html.
This book presents the design and history of Poliform from a unique perspective--that of fashion photographer Paolo Roversi. This is the story in pictures of a dimension of living that differs from every other. While there have been attempts to create a philosophy of interior design, there has rarely been an effort to discover the soul of furniture and objects. That is what Paolo Roversi has tried to do with his camera in these pages, which are devoted to Poliform, the Italian company that has successfully transformed ancient Italian artisanal traditions into contemporary furniture. By using what have always been his raw materials--time, light, space--Roversi leads us on a photographic journey to the middle of the Poliform universe, helping us to relive the company's story and capture the mysterious, unmistakable soul that makes the surfaces and volumes of its objects vibrate.

The London based photography duo Lucilla Barbieri and Fabrizio Coppi met in Milan in the early 90s and started to work together as Coppi Barbieri. In the following decades they have become among the most sought after still life photographers in the world crafting meticulous images for the likes of Apple, Chanel, Cartier, Estee Lauder, Fendi, Gucci, Harry Winston, Louis Vuitton, and Van Cleef & Arpels. Early Works 1992-1997 presents for the first time the experimental images they created together before their commercial career took off. Their first experiments involved flowers immersed in water, common household objects such as plastic bottles, and glassware, and back-lit dresses animated by fans. Their inspiration was the work of historical photographers and artists such as André Kertész, Baron Adolph de Meyer, Josef Sudek and the painter Morandi. But they also injected the sensibility of fashion photographers working at that time such as Paolo Roversi and Javier Vallhonrat. Their slow process involved using single 5x7 film which lends the pictures in this book a unique quality and the feeling of belonging to another world.
Prior to his thirty-year career in the first-ever academic Buddhist studies program in the United States, Geshe Sopa was the son of peasant farmers, a novice monk in a rural monastery, a virtuoso scholar monk at one of the prestigious central monasteries in Lhasa, and a survivor of the Tibetan uprising and perilous flight into exile in 1959. In Like a Waking Dream, Geshe Sopa frankly and observantly reflects on how his life in Tibet, a monastic life of yogic simplicity, shaped and prepared him for the unexpected. The account of his years in Tibet preserves, as well, valuable insight and details about a now-vanished era of Tibetan religious culture. His is a tale of an exemplary life dedicated to learning, spiritual cultivation, and the service of others from one of the greatest living masters of Tibetan Buddhism.
