New books
Diary by Corinne Day
Corinne Day's photographs have influenced a generation of fashion and documentary image makers. Her pictures unflinchingly document her life and relationships with a realist snapshot aesthetic-representing a youth culture set against the glamour of fashion and avoiding fictionalization or voyeurism. Gaining notoriety both for a scandalous photo of Kate Moss in Vogue in 1993 and for pioneering so-called 'grunge' fashion photography.
Girls by Pamela Hanson
Girls are the fresh image of an age. They appear here through the eyes of American photographer Pamela Hanson who captures their subtle mix of innocence and seduction, awareness and insolence - the make-up of today's younger generation. To accompany the photographs, writers, designers, singers, actors, journalists and movie directors give their definition of what "girls" represent for them today. It includes, among many others quotes by Arthur Elgort, Donna Karan, Kelly Klein, Heidi Klum, Mario Testino, Christy Turlington and Amber Valletta.

White Women by Helmut Newton
White Women, Helmut Newton's legendary first work, appeared more than twenty years ago. With its superior mixture of aesthetics, technical perfection and bourgeois decadence it has lost nothing of its potency and attractiveness. Newton's work encompasses a wealth of themes, also embodying facets of the mass-media world of glamour, masquerade and show. Using subtle, yet striking images - like those of Paloma Picasso, Veruschka, Elsa Peretti, Karl Lagerfeld, David Hockney, and Charlotte Rampling - Newton embraces the delicate, natural beauty of the naked female body. White Women is a masterpiece of erotic visual literature.
