The Soul of the Camera

As both an art form and a universal language, the photograph has an extraordinary ability to connect and communicate with others. But with over one trillion photos taken each year, why do so few of them truly connect? Why do so few of them grab our emotions or our imaginations? It is not because the images lack focus or proper exposure; with advances in technology, the camera does that so well these days. Photographer David duChemin believes the majority of our images fall short because they lack soul. And without soul, the images have no ability to resonate with others. They simply cannot connect with the viewer, or even—if we’re being truthful—with ourselves.

A voyeuristic view of Los Angeles drivers in their own moving living rooms The culture of cars is an inseparable part of American life. Whether used for functional purposes or recreation, automobiles are expressions of our personality. They also represent the American ideals of freedom, mobility, and independence, providing a unique personal space that is at once private and public. Andrew Bush (b. 1956) examines this tension between private and public in his remarkable series of photographs of individuals driving cars in and around Los Angeles--a city famous for its car culture. By attaching a camera to the passenger side window, Bush made these pictures while driving alongside his subjects--often traveling at 60 mph. Taking notes on the speed and direction he was going, Bush created extended captions for the images and called the series Vector Portraits. Published here for the first time, this portfolio is accompanied by an essay by culture critic Patt Morrison and an interview between the photographer and Jeff L. Rosenheim that discusses the Vector Portraits in the context of Bush's photography as a whole.

The electrifying memoir of acclaimed photographer Sally Mann – ‘An instant classic’ (New York Times) In this extraordinary memoir, the acclaimed American photographer Sally Mann blends narrative and image to explore the forces that shaped her work. Delving back into her family’s past and the storied landscapes of the South, Hold Still is about how we are made by people and place, and how we make our experiences into art. This is a totally original form of personal history that has the page-turning drama of a great novel but is firmly rooted in the fertile soil of Mann’s remarkable life. ‘A wild ride of a memoir. Visceral and visionary. Fiercely beautiful. My kind of true adventure’ Patti Smith ‘This book is riveting, ravishing – diving deep into family history to find the origins of art. I couldn’t take my eyes off it’ Ann Patchett
