Fotografias
The book, edited by Maureen Bisilliat reconstructs her professional trajectory of over 50 years of deep creative activity through 12 photo essays, arranged in delicate and subjective way. The images are combined with varied texts, resulting in an artistic partnership between Bisilliat and Joao Cabral de Melo Neto, Guimares Rosa, Jorge Amado, and Euclides da Cunha, among others. This work is more than a book of photography. It is also a biography of Bisilliat -whose life was reconstructed by writer and journalist Marta Goes - an anthology of visual landscapes, people and objects that marked her throughout life, a meeting of the best reviews ever written about her work, and an annotated bibliography by the author, making this edition an invaluable source of reference on her publications, exhibitions, videos and films.

People of the Rainforest
In 1945, three young brothers joined and eventually led Brazil's first government-sponsored expedition into its Amazonian rainforests. After more expeditions into unknown terrain, they became South America's most famous explorers, spending the rest of their lives with the resilient tribal communities they found there. People of the Rainforest recounts the Villas Boas brothers' four thrilling and dangerous 'first contacts' with isolated indigenous people, and their lifelong mission to learn about their societies and, above all, help them adapt to modern Brazil without losing their cultural heritage, identity and pride. Author and explorer John Hemming vividly traces the unique adventures of these extraordinary brothers, who used their fame to change attitudes to native peoples and to help protect the world's surviving tropical rainforests, under threat again today.
