Prix Pictet
Wir feiern zu Recht menschliche Kreativität, Innovation und Unternehmertum, doch allzu oft sind unsere Erfolge in Wissenschaft und Technologie mit einem enormen Preis für unsere Umwelt und damit auch unsere Zukunft verbunden. Die menschliche Geschichte war weitaus häufiger von Konflikten und Verzweiflung als von Fürsorge, Liebe und Koexistenz geprägt – es wäre ein Leichtes, sie als eine Geschichte tragischer Hybris zu lesen. Doch die Geschichte ist hier nicht zu Ende. Wir stehen an der Schwelle zur Zukunft und fragen uns, wie die Würfel fallen werden. Wir wetten mit der Nachwelt, dass der menschliche Einfallsreichtum, die Intelligenz und Anpassungsfähigkeit stark genug sein werden, um eine ganz andere Zukunft hervorzubringen. Prix Pictet. Human zeigt über 100 herausragende Werke zeitgenössischer Fotografie von vielen der weltweit renommiertesten Fotograf*innen, die sich mit dem bewusst weitgefassten und ambivalenten Themenkomplex konzeptuell auseinandersetzen.

Context and Narrative in Photography
However beautiful or technically dazzling your photographs might be, if they don't tell a story, convey an idea or make your viewer stop and think, they are unlikely to make a lasting impression.Context and Narrative in Photography introduces practical methods to help you plan, develop and present meaningful, communicative images. With dozens of examples from some of the world's most thought-provoking photographers, this is a beautiful introduction to a fascinating aspect of photography.Beginning with an exploration of different narrative techniques, you'll be guided through selecting and developing a compelling concept for your project and how it might be conveyed either through a single image or a series of photographs. You'll also learn ways to incorporate signs, symbols and text into your work and how to present the finished piece to best reach your audience.New to this edition are extended projects, additional exercises and discussion questions, expanded case studies, around 25% of the images and an expanded Chapter 6 on integrating text into photographic projects.

International Architecture in Interwar Japan
Following World War I, a generation of young architects in Japan took part in a movement toward "international architecture," or kokusai kenchiku, designing houses for people who blended Japanese and Western customs in their daily lives, and public buildings--from schools and hospitals to weather stations and golf clubhouses--that encompassed modern forms and new materials, especially earthquake-resistant reinforced concrete, yet systhesized the new with the old.--Ken Tadashi Oshima is assistant professor of architecture at the University of Washington.
