A weekend sale by Taschen




A quick blog today. Taschen, the art book printers, have a sale on over the weekend. They have many books on photography as well as art and the production values are high. 

Sebastiao Selgado's "Genesis" (see above) is just £30. 

First published in 2013 this massive coffee table book of black and white photographs from across the globe is described as "A love letter to the planet". Eight years in the making it is a beautiful set of pictures as well as making us consider our place in it and our responsibilities to it.

Of course there are other books but this is the one I focussed on. A big bargain. A link below -
