His parents stayed behind and died in a concentration camp in 1943. Now in his eighties, Auerbach is still producing his distinctly sculptural paintings of friends, family and surroundings in north London. Where he has made his home since the war. The art historian and curator Catherine Lampert has had unique access to the artist since 1978. When she first became one of his sitters. With an emphasis on Auerbachs own words, culled from her conversations with him and archival interviews, she provides a rare insight into his professional life, working methods and philosophy. Additionally, Auerbach reflects on the places, people and inspirations that have shaped his life. These include his experiences as a refugee child, finding his way in the London art world of the 1950s and 1960s. Also, his friendships with Lucian Freud, Francis Bacon and Leon Kossoff, among many others, and his approaches to looking and painting throughout his career.

This book presents Burtynsky’s photographs in five free flowing sections which combine and also contrast work from throughout his career. This original approach provides a sense of both his visual language and his exploration of the dilemmas at the heart of our globalized world. Each section is interspersed with selected texts which work in concert with the images, to provide a fuller understanding of Burtynsky’s view of the world. With an introduction by Ewing and an afterword by Joshua Schuster, this book provides an entirely new way of seeing Burtynsky’s work for those who are already familiar with it as well as an accessible introduction for those encountering his photographs for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore books by Edward Burtynsky \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/edward-burtynsky\/\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore books by Thames \u0026amp; Hudson \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/thames-hudson\/\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Edward Burtynsky","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580278386897,"sku":"SBID_00088102","price":125.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/essential-elements-3051552.jpg?v=1787130677"},{"product_id":"grayson-perry","title":"Grayson Perry","description":"\u003cp\u003eGrayson Perry by Jacky Klein.

In 1975, Robert Delpire, Aperture, and Koudelka collaborated to publish Gitans, la fin du voyage (Gypsies, in the English-language edition), a selection of sixty photographs, half never before published, taken in various Roma settlements around East Slovakia.

Henceforth they afford us the opportunity to learn from the experiences of alienation, conflict, despair, waste, loss, and departure.

However, the location of this house remains a secret. In the images, we see the inhabitants of the house, both people and animals and of course, the ever-present birds. All of them are posed and propped in a theatrical way that Ballen orchestrates. The resulting images are compelling and dynamic, existing somewhere between still life and portrait. They are richly layered with graffiti, drawings, animals, and found objects. In a world where photographers seek to avoid definition, Roger Ballen is a true original who not only defies genres, but has defined his own artistic space as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Roger Ballen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most influential and important photographic artists of the 21\u003csup\u003est\u003c\/sup\u003e century, Roger Ballen’s photographs span over forty years.  His strange and extreme works confront the viewer and challenge them to come with him on a journey into their own minds as he explores the deeper recesses of his own. Roger Ballen was born in New York in 1950 but for over 30 years he has lived and worked in South Africa. His work as a geologist took him out into the countryside and led him to take up his camera and explore the hidden world of small South African towns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt first he explored the empty streets in the glare of the midday sun but, once he had made the step of knocking on people’s doors, he discovered a world inside these houses which was to have a profound effect on his work. These interiors with their distinctive collections of objects and the occupants within these closed worlds took his unique vision on a path from social critique to the creation of metaphors for the inner mind. After 1994 he no longer looked to the countryside for his subject matter finding it closer to home in Johannesburg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore books by Roger Ballen \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/roger-ballen\/\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso, more books by Thames \u0026amp; Hudson \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/thames-hudson\/\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.   \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roger Ballen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580982210769,"sku":"SBID_00273564","price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/asylum-of-the-birds-3856390.jpg?v=1787026710"},{"product_id":"this-empty-world","title":"This Empty World","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Empty World by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nickbrandt.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eNick Brandt\u003c\/a\u003e.

Moving into colour photography for the first time, the work is both a technical tour-de-force and a massively ambitious project in which the sets are constructed on a scale typically seen in major film production. Each panoramic image is a combination of two moments in time, almost all of them captured weeks apart from the exact same camera position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrandt first builds and lights a partial set, then waits for the animals that inhabit the region to enter the frame. Once captured on camera, the full set is built with the camera remaining fixed in place. The sets include bridge and highway construction sites, a petrol station, a bus station and even a dead forest. Completing the scene with a huge cast drawn from local communities, Brandt then photographs the second sequence. The final large scale prints are a composite of the two intricately plotted elements. Viewed as a whole, the images vividly illustrate a world in which, overwhelmed by runaway human development, there is no longer space for animals to survive, and beg the question: what kind of world will we live in when stripped of its natural wonders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore books by Nick Brandt \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/nick-brandt\/\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso, more books by Thames \u0026amp; Hudson \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/thames-hudson\/\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_publisher\/thames-hudson\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nick Brandt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40581003804881,"sku":"SBID_00122677","price":65.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/this-empty-world-8939977.jpg?v=1787026588"},{"product_id":"in-character","title":"In Character","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn Character by Anja Niemi.

The individual monochrome portraits are stunning, as you can see below.

From early work with carnival strippers, through groundbreaking reportage on Nicaragua and El Salvador, then to projects encompassing subjects as varied as the Dani tribe of Indonesia, the Kurds of Northern Iraq and victims of domestic violence in California. Central to Meiselas’s work are themes of collaboration, return as well as exchange. With over 110 photographs – some classics, others rarely published – this book demonstrates how the frontline on which Meiselas has worked involves a bearing of witness and a gathering of evidence. As Meiselas has stated: ‘To continue on is to be curious – to be compelled to confront, to examine, to expose, to engage, and then not know where you will end up or how the journey will change you. The frontline is always a choice.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore books by Susan Meiselas \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/susan-meiselas\/\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore books by Thames \u0026amp; Hudson \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/thames-hudson\/\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Susan Meiselas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40590615773393,"sku":"SBID_00128243","price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/on-the-frontline-9778971.jpg?v=1787026109"},{"product_id":"all-about-saul-leiter","title":"All About Saul Leiter","description":"\u003cp\u003eAll About Saul Leiter by Saul Leiter.

So, the publication in 2006 of his first collection, Early Color, inspired an avid ‘rediscovery’ that has since led to worldwide exhibitions and the release of a documentary, In No Great Hurry: 13 Lessons in Life with Saul Leiter (2013). As a result, this collection reveals the secrets of his appeal, from his masterful colours and compositions to his lyricism and life philosophy.

His work as a geologist took him out into the countryside and led him to take up his camera and explore the hidden world of small South African towns. At first he explored the empty streets in the glare of the midday sun but, once he had made the step of knocking on people’s doors, he discovered a world inside these houses which was to have a profound effect on his work. These interiors with their distinctive collections of objects and the occupants within these closed worlds took his unique vision on a path from social critique to the creation of metaphors for the inner mind. After 1994 he no longer looked to the countryside for his subject matter finding it closer to home in Johannesburg.\r\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated links\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\nMore books by Roger Ballen \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_author\/roger-ballen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\r\n\r\nAlso more books by Thames \u0026amp;Hudson \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_publisher\/thames-hudson\/\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e","brand":"Roger Ballen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40591013740753,"sku":"SBID_00137873","price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/the-world-according-to-roger-ballen-8370352.jpg?v=1787024851"},{"product_id":"ballenesque-roger-ballen-a-retrospective-signed","title":"Ballenesque, Roger Ballen: A Retrospective","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst edition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst impression\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLarge format hardback in new condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSigned and doodled by Roger Ballen to title page\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note the book is new, but there is a bump to back top corner.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Ballenesque\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoger Ballen is one of the most important and original art photographers working today. Best known for his probing, often challenging images that exist in a space between painting, drawing, installation and photography. Yet until now, no comprehensive retrospective on this highly regarded artist has been released. Based on an entirely new appraisal of Ballen’s archive, one that looks beyond his monographic projects for the first time. Ballenesque takes the reader on a visual, chronological tour of the photographer’s entire oeuvre, including both the iconic images and previously unpublished works. At the heart of the book is Ballen’s own exploration of his style – of those particular qualities that make his work so compellingly his own. Featuring reflective and engaging texts by Ballen himself, Ballenesque offers a distinctly personal account of the photographer’s career to date, including rare and privileged insights into Ballen’s photographic practice and the major influences that have helped to shape his worldview. Each of the key stages in Ballen’s creative journey is explored – a journey that, for Ballen has been both an outward and inward exploration of the self. With over 300 photographs and an introduction by cultural theorist and critic Robert J. C. Young, Ballenesque provides not only an entirely new way of seeing Ballen’s work for those already familiar with his career. But also a comprehensive introduction for those encountering his photographs for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore books by Roger Ballen \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_author\/roger-ballen\/\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roger Ballen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41252880810193,"sku":"SBID_00138328","price":70.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/ballenesque-roger-ballen-a-retrospective-4031132.jpg?v=1787024792"},{"product_id":"the-theatre-of-apparitions","title":"The Theatre of Apparitions","description":"\u003cp\u003e First edition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst impression\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMedium format hardback in new condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSigned by Roger Ballen to title page\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDust jacket in removable protective sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoger Ballen’s famous photographic work has been concerned with the interior architecture of standing structures. Therefore playing on the metaphor of the mind as a house of secrets and buried narratives. As a result, Ballen has created a series of images inspired by the drawings and marks which people make on their environment that link his unique aesthetic to theatrical performance. Emma Calder and Ged Haney have used 2d computer animation and a brilliant music score by composer John Webb to turn these images into a film reminiscent of an old music hall or circus. In the theatre dismembered people, beasts and ghosts, dance, tumble, make love and tear themselves apart, plunging the audience into the nightmarish world of Roger Ballen’s subconscious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/roger-ballen\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Roger Ballen Books\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ebooks by Roger Ballen\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roger Ballen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40591064367313,"sku":"SBID_00138520","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/the-theatre-of-apparitions-5215679.jpg?v=1787024794"},{"product_id":"cardiff-after-dark","title":"Cardiff After Dark","description":"\u003cp\u003eCardiff After Dark by Maciej Dakowicz.

But there is one quite unusual street, called St Mary street. Filled with shoppers, commuters and office workers during the week days, it transforms itself into a party stage on every Saturday night. Sooner or later most party goers end up in one of St Mary street’s bars and pubs. The street together with adjoining lanes becomes the main scene of fuelled by alcohol and emotions city’s nightlife. Everything takes place in public – from drinking, fighting, kissing to crying and sleeping. There are queues outside popular bars and the security guards together with police patrols, keep an eye on the whole spectacle. Supermen chat up Playboy Bunnies, somebody takes a nap on the pavement, the hungry ones finish their portions of chips, the needy ones urinate by the wall, bins overflow and the policemen stop another argument and fight. Nobody seems to worry about tomorrow, what matters is here and now. Then a taxi back home if you are lucky to find one, if not a slow drunk walk back. A quiet hungover Sunday and another week at work or school. Until the next weekend.

So, Koudelka is the first book to present over 150 of his most eloquent images in a single volume, from his earliest images – published here for the first time – to his most recent panoramic landscape studies.\r\n\r\nWhether photographing avant-garde theatre, gypsies throughout Eastern Europe, resistance to Soviet guns and tanks advancing on Prague, or the environmental degradation of a post-industrial world, Koudelka has consistently produced images that provoke a connection to the larger questions of human existence. As John Szarkowski comments in the opening pages of Koudelka's first monograph, Gypsies, his pictures 'seem to concern themselves with prototypical rituals, and a theatre of ancient and unchangeable fables... Perhaps they describe not the small and cherished differences that distinguish each of us from all others, but the prevailing circumstance that encloses us.'\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout The Artist\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\nHe is a Czech-born French itinerant photographer. Firstly, he is known for his seminal photo-books about the gypsies in Eastern Europe, the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968. As well as the Black Triangle, a region of environmental devastation. Consequently, the black and white images in these photo-books represent key moments in human history. Henceforth they afford us the opportunity to learn from the experiences of alienation, conflict, despair, waste, loss, and departure. Furthermore, he uses photography to distil and visualize human values that have shaped our current human condition.\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\nMore books by Josef Koudelka \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_author\/josef-koudelka-photography-books\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\r\n\r\nMore books by Thames \u0026amp; Hudson \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/book_publisher\/thames-hudson\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ehere\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.","brand":"Josef Koudelka","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40591791554769,"sku":"SBID_00153158","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/koudelka-2863213.jpg?v=1787023662"},{"product_id":"the-polaroid-project-at-the-intersection-of-art-and-technology","title":"The Polaroid Project: At the Intersection of Art and Technology","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst edition first impression large format hardback in fine condition.

On each visit Killip attended the annual pilgrimages at Croagh Patrick and Máméan in the west of Ireland, both places of wild beauty and ancient spirituality. His poignant photographs convey the dedication and community of the modern pilgrims’ journey as they make their way across shingled mountainsides to take part in age old rites. Images of the pilgrims’ trek are complemented by landscapes, townscapes and also details photographed in the west of Ireland and beyond. Presented as a facsimile of an album of prints from a decade of travels, this book includes the first colour photographs Killip has ever published.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/chris-killip-photography-books\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/chris-killip-photography-books\"\u003eBooks by Chris Killip\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/thames-hudson\/\"\u003eBooks by Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chris Killip","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40591888875729,"sku":"SBID_00156188","price":300.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/here-comes-everybody-chris-killips-irish-photographs-9903015.jpg?v=1787023473"},{"product_id":"my-morocco","title":"My Morocco","description":"\u003cp\u003eMy Morocco by Bruno Barbey.

The bulk of the book is devoted to an iconic series he shot when he was in his 30s. The final 11 images were commissioned for an exhibition by the nearby Monash Gallery of Art and shot in 2018 and 2019. Henson, now in his 60s, explains that “I came to understand that what I wanted to capture and hold on to was a place which no longer existed. The possibility of photographing the landscape of memory and in so doing return to the ‘lost domain’ of childhood seemed both beguiling and yet so unlikely.” Although Henson may not be well known outside of Australia, he is one of the most celebrated contemporary photographic artists Down Under. This book is a showcase for his singular style. His painterly approach draws from the traditions of romantic literature and painting, with Caravaggio’s chiaroscuro lighting, elements of Flemish still-lifes, and a touch of Edward Hopper’s lonely voyeurism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/bill-henson\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/bill-henson\"\u003eBooks by Bill Henson\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/thames-hudson\"\u003eBooks by Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bill Henson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40594183028945,"sku":"SBID_00170201","price":65.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/products\/the-light-fades-but-the-gods-remain-8446568.jpg?v=1787022699"},{"product_id":"on-photographs","title":"On Photographs","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn Photographs by David Campany.

So, it brings a fresh perspective to his extensive catalogue. Recognized as a pioneer of American colour photography, Webb has since the 1970s consistently created photographs characterized by intense colour and light. His work, with its richly layered and complex composition, touches on multiple genres, including street photography, photojournalism and fine art, but as Webb claims, ‘to me it all is photography. You have to go out and explore the world with a camera.’ Webb’s ability to distil gesture, colour and contrasting cultural tensions into single, beguiling frames results in evocative images that convey a sense of enigma, irony and humour. Featuring key works alongside previously unpublished photographs, The Suffering of Light is Webb’s first comprehensive monograph and provides the most thorough examination to date of this modern master’s prolific, thirty-year career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alex Webb","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40594333434065,"sku":"SBID_00215518","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/files\/the-suffering-of-light-thirty-years-of-photographs-2239704.jpg?v=1787021556"},{"product_id":"tokyoo-hardback-signed-with-print","title":"TO:KY:OO","description":"TO:KY:OO by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.liamwong.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eLiam Wong.\u003c\/a\u003e 2021 reprint of the hardback edition.

Structured around her project-oriented approach, Silver Lake Drive presents more than 120 images from her career to date: from the early Polyester and Big Valley series, through her first films and collaborations with the actor Bryce Dallas Howard, to the tour-de-force of Face in the Crowd – shot on a Hollywood sound stage with over 150 performers – and her 2016 commission for the Paris Opera, La Grande Sortie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alex Prager","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40594463031505,"sku":"SBID_00255657","price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/files\/silver-lake-drive-9936299.jpg?v=1792481848"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/collections\/thames-hudson-4816277.jpg?v=1773752858","url":"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/collections\/thames-hudson.oembed?page=4","provider":"Setanta Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
