Acclaimed for his black-and-white photographs of 1960s youth culture in Bamako, Mali, Malick Sidibé (born 1936) is today the African continent's best-known photographer. Sidibé was recently awarded the Venice Biennale Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement (2007)--the first time this award was presented to a photographer--and the Infinity Award for Lifetime Achievement (2008), in recognition of his contribution to documentary photography and the historical record. Malick Sidibé: La Vie en Rose provides a survey of this work, focusing primarily on Sidibé's images of Mali's buzzing youth culture and family life in Bamako in the 1960s and 70s. Laura Serani's foreword contextualizes Sidibé's work in a wider survey of African photography; the book also includes an interview with the photographer by Laura Incardona and an appendix with Sidibé's famous "chemises" (photographic dossiers), which documents his working methods.

The epitome of the diva as artist, Maria Callas is brought vividly to life in this fantastic album-like compilation of archival photographs, personal documents and newspaper clippings from Callas' own collection. The images and articles preserved by Callas are frequently enhanced by her own annotations, recording the names of the people portrayed and the occasions. Here we see Callas on holiday, backstage or at home; with Mario del Monaco, Toscanini, Visconti and other celebrities; and, of course, in her many onstage roles, and in press shots. This volume is thus an ideal album of the Divina's memories, following the order and the themes her archival choices favored, highlighting personal objects, her career and her unbridled passion for fashion and elegance. The photographs span the years 1942-74, and the newspapers 1947-60.

Matisse and Engraving explores all of the engraving techniques used by Henri Matisse (1869-1954) from 1900 until the end of his life. Although Matisse is known primarily for his mastery of colour, engraving was essential to his overall practice. The artist placed equal importance on engraving, drawing, painting and sculpture, with the representation of the human figure essential across all these mediums.

For the very first time, the matrices-woodcut, lithograph, drypoint, etching, linocut and more-accompany the works, allowing readers to glimpse the process behind the resulting prints.
