The explosive growth in photography book publishing has presented photo-eye with an interesting challenge along with what we think is an exciting opportunity.
How can we continue to offer an ever-increasing inventory of photography books, keep those books continuously in stock and compete with the online deep discounters on price and shipping? The answer is that we can shift much our fullfillment to the web's most efficient book operation, Amazon.com.
Now we are happy to offer you Amazon's discounts on books which are almost always in stock from either Amazon directly or Amazon Marketplace. We can also provide you with the same shipping options that Amazon provides, including on qualified orders, free shipping.
It's important to understand that you will still be supporting photo-eye if you order from Amazon or Amazon Marketplace through photoeye.com. We make it easy for you to do this by providing a dual shopping cart system with separate checkouts.
However, you may still opt to purchase a particular title from photo-eye directly even though the same book is available through Amazon at a less expensive price.
Book publishing is not a perfect industry. Though all books are imperfect in some subtle way, we want to be as accurate as possible on our website if we know that there is a problem with a particular book. Imperfections range from a rubbed dustjacket, a small tear in the dustjacket, or a corner of the book being bumped. No fundamental flaw should be part of an imperfect book's condition. E-mail us our call 505.988.5152 should you have questions prior to ordering a particular imperfect book.
Place your order now and we'll send you the item when it arrives.
You will not be charged until your order ships.
An additional change will be added to the standard handling charge for this item as it is a foreign publication and shipping expenses from foreign countries is extremely expensive or it requires a larger, more expensive box or it requires extra care in handling. Thank you for understanding!
This book is a different kind of travel narrative. While reading, the viewer travels through time and stays in the same place, Berka a small village in Thuringia, Germany. The village was photographed by three photographers of one family over 70 years - between 1950 and 2022. This unusal project - the result of several coincidences - tells us a lot about history, country, the village, its people and how things have developed so far...The photographers are (in chronological order): The master miller of Berka, Ludwig Schirmer. As an enthusiastic amateur photographer (and later one of the best advertising photographers in the GDR) and while being busily working as the village miller after WWII he spares the time to capture life in the village and in the fields in pictures reminiscent of other great German photographers of his time.Werner Mahler, who married Ute, Ludwig Schirmer's daughter, in 1973, photographed his diploma thesis for the HGB Leipzig in Berka in 1977/78. In 1998, he returned once again for a STERN assignment. Ute Mahler then traveled to Berka in 2021/22 to take portraits of the young people in the village who had not even been born when Werner Mah- ler last photographed there. They are the great- or great-great-granddaughters of the people her father knew and portrayed in the 1950s. In 2023, the long-term project, photographed entirely in analog and black and white, is completed and the idea for the book, which has been ma- turing for several years, begins to take shape. The novelist Jenny Erpenbeck, the journalist and friend Anja Maier, the sociologist Steffen Mau (Humboldt University Berlin) and the American photo historian Gary Van Zante (MIT, Boston) describe the place, the time, the people, the photographers and the photographs. Graphic designer Florian Lamm uses subtle design ideas to develop a complex lay-out that shapes images and texts into a dense narrative reminiscent of great literary, photographic and cinematic role models.
