Andreas Feininger: Thats Photography $24.45 The camera is superior to the eye, and the photograph can, and ideally should, portray the world more graphic than reality itself.—Andreas FeiningerThe basic principles underlying the photographic art of Andreas Feininger are clarity, simplicity, and organization. The eldest son of painter Lyonel Feininger, he was born in Paris in 1906. Upon completion of training as a cabinet-maker at the Bauhaus in Weimar in the early 20s, he went on to study architecture in the state schools of Weimar and Zerbst. It was while working as an architectural photographer in Stockholm that he developed the sweeping vistas and fine balance for which his pictures were famous. Emigrating to New York following the outbreak of World War II, Feininger was hired as a photo-editor by Life magazine. In his own work, he captured images of urban canyons, skyscrapers, bridges, and elevated railways in concentrated, atmospheric photographs that are regarded as classical works today. He applied the same enthusiasm to nature studies: his detail images of insects, flowers, shells, wood, and stones imbue these forms with a sculptural character. That’s Photography presents the work of this classic photographer, who died in 1999. |

Archivalware Archival 35mm Size Negative Sleeving, 1,000 Foot Continuous Roll. $33.99 Until recent years, archival film storage had been associated, at least in the public mind, with museums, government agencies, libraries, or other institutions concerned with the preservation of photographic records; however, other users of photographic film, such as commercial photographers, printing houses, publishers, and schools, have long been concerned with how best to ensure permanence of their irreplaceable photography. A sophisticated generation of amateur photographers who observed how time, humidity and casual storage damaged valuable slides and prints, nowadays, have converted to using archival storage techniques. They, too, appreciate that a picture good enough to keep is good enough to keep forever. Exclusive thin backing coupled with high clarity provides excellent resolution when proofing without removing negatives from the preserver. No other manufactured preserver has this feature. Also, continuous seams eliminate the problem of negatives hanging up in the sleeve itself. You can literally load and unload Print File preservers easier and faster. PRO-LINE Continuous Roll Sleeving is made from premium 3 mil archival polypropylene in roll film sizes from 35mm to 70mm. PRO-LINE continuous rolls provide convenient storage and offer quick loading and unloading with our easy locking side flap. Our continuous roll sleeving is available in clear two sides or clear with a frosted back, unperforated or perforated to standard film lengths for all popular film formats. |

Art Deco San Francisco: The Architecture of Timothy Pflueger $55 The Castro Theatre, the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Headquarters, 450 Sutter Medico-Dental Buildingthesemasterpieces of San Francisco’s Art Deco heritage are the work of one man: Timothy Pflueger. An immigrant’s sonwith only a grade-school education, Pflueger began practicing architecture after San Francisco’s 1906 earthquake. While his contemporaries looked to Beaux-Arts traditions to rebuild the city, he brought exotic Mayan, Asian, and Egyptian forms to buildings ranging from simple cocktail lounges to the city’s first skyscrapers. Pflueger was one of the city’s most prolificarchitects during his 40-year career. He designed two major downtown skyscrapers, two stock exchanges, several neighborhood theaters, movie palaces for four smaller cities (including the beloved Paramount in Oakland), some ofthe city’s biggest schools, and at least 50 homes. His works include the San Francisco Stock Exchange, the ever-popularTop of the Mark, the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, and the San Francisco World’s Fair. It is a testament to his talentthat many of his buildings still stand and many have been named landmarks.Therese Poletti tells the fascinating story of Pflueger’s life and work in Art Deco San Francisco. In lively detail, she relates how Pflueger built extravagant compositions in metal, concrete, and glass. She also tells the story behind the architecture: Pflueger’s commissioning and support of muralist Diego Rivera, his association with photographer Ansel Adams and sculptor Ralph Stackpole, and his childhood friendship turned to adulthood sponsorship with San Francisco Mayor James “Sunny” Rolph Jr. Beautiful archival photography mixes with stunning new photography in this collection of a truly Californian, but ultimately American, story. |

Art Education $69.99 Art education is the area of learning that is based upon the visual, tangible arts-drawing, painting, sculpture, and design in jewelry, pottery, weaving, fabrics, etc and design applied to more practical fields such as commercial graphics and home furnishings. Latest trends also include photography, video, film, design, computer art, etc. Historically art was taught in Europe via the atelier Method system where artists’ took on apprentices who learned their trade in much the same way as any guild such as the Masons (stonemasons or goldsmiths etc). The first art schools were established in 400BC Greece as mentioned by Plato. During the Renaissance formal training took place in art studios. Historically, design has had some precedence over the fine arts with schools of design being established all over Europe in the 18th century. Education in art takes place across the life-span. Children, youth, and adults learn about art in community based institutions and organizations such as museums, local arts agencies, recreation centers, places of worship, social service agencies, and prisons among many other possible venues. |

Artists, Advertising, and the Borders of Art $32.63 Norman Rockwell and Andy Warhol, J. C. Leyendecker and Georgia O’Keeffe, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Pepsi-Cola, the avant garde and the Famous Artists Schools, Inc.: these are some of the unexpected pairings encountered in Artists, Advertising, and the Borders of Art. In the first interdisciplinary study of the imagery and practices of commercial artists, Michele H. Bogart explores, in unprecedented detail, the world of commercial art–its illustrators, publishers, art directors, photographers, and painters. She maps out the long, permeable border between art and commerce and expands our picture of artistic culture in the twentieth century. From the turn of the century through the 1950s, the explosive growth of popular magazines and national advertising offered artists new sources of income and new opportunities for reaching huge audiences. Bogart shows how, at the same time, this change in the marketplace also forced a rethinking of the purpose of the artistic enterprise itself. She examines how illustrators such as Howard Pyle, Charles Dana Gibson, and Norman Rockwell claimed their identities as artists within a market-oriented framework. She looks at billboard production and the growing schism between art posters and billboard advertisements; at the new roles of the art director; at the emergence of photography as the dominant advertising medium; and at the success of painters in producing fine art for advertising during the 1930s and 1940s. |

Beyond Attack $39.95 MANY BOOKS HAVE BEEN WRITTEN about cougar attacks in the wild, providing readers with much-needed information about how to avoid becoming the victim of a dangerous predator’s natural hunting instincts. Author and noted wildlife photographer Mark Kostich takes a different approach. He describes in riveting prose the true story of his deadly encounter with a cougar that attacks him when he enters its enclosure in a carnivore sanctuary. He lives to tell the tale, providing invaluable advice to those who have also survived traumatic experiences of their own. There is much to learn from this gripping narrative, especially in terms of what to expect and how to deal with the ongoing anguish that reveals itself in the dark period of seemingly endless nights that lie beyond the attack.MARK KOSTICH is a medical dosimetrist at University of North Carolina Hospitals, and an award-winning international wildlife photographer. His work has been published by National Geographic and is on exhibit in the American Museum of Natural History and in the Paris Museum of Natural History. His photography appears internationally in numerous books,magazines, galleries, museums, and schools, and can also be seen at www.kostich.com. His adventures have taken him face-to-face with wild animals all over the world. One of them would change his life forever. |

Buddhism $33.25 Founded on the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, the faith taught by Siddhartha Gautama (the Buddha, or Awakened One) spread rapidly across Asia and then across the globe, becoming one of the world’s largest and most influential religions. Buddhism combines lavish colorful photography and an authoritative text to provide a sweeping survey of this rich and varied religious tradition. Eckel begins with an engaging portrait of the Buddha (who predated Jesus by 500 years), an Indian prince’s son who embarked on an epic journey of enlightenment and discovered a way of overcoming suffering. The authors trace the flowering of Buddhist schools in his wake, from the major groups (Mahayana, Theravada, Tantric) to the minor (such as the Pure Land sect in Japan). With helpful sidebars, boxed features, and numerous illustrations, they explain Tantric Mandalas (sacred circles), the Sutras (holy writings), the sacred landscape, celestial beings in some Buddhist mythology, the path to Nirvana, and much more. They also discuss Buddhist temples, forms of worship and meditation, the cycle of rebirth, and roles and relationships in the Buddhist community (including Theravada, Buddhism’s stress on the importance of becoming a monk for at least part of life). A helpful map reveals the course of Buddhism’s expansion throughout Asia. As a belief system, as an influential way of seeing the world, as a unifying thread of Asian cultures, Buddhism remains vitally important. This lucid, eye-pleasing introduction explains and celebrates this major world religion, bringing to life the full variety of Buddhist tradition. |

Cad Yellow 1/2×2 Tube $9.95 Marshall’s Photo Oils Marshall’s Photo Oil Colors are manufactured solely for coloring photographs. They have been used for many years by professional colorists, schools of photography, and leading studios. One advantage of hand coloring over direct color photography is that the colorist is not limited by the coloring of the subject. A dress can be colored blue, red, yellow or chartreuse. Another advantage is that preponderance or lack of any color can be avoided. The merging of painting techniques and photographic imagery enables the artist to attain the best of both worlds by maintaining control over the final result of the print. |

DIY Media: Creating, Sharing and Learning with New Technologies $33.95 Schools remain notorious for co-opting digital technologies to “business as usual” approaches to teaching new literacies. DIY Media addresses this issue head-on, and describes expansive and creative practices of digital literacy that are increasingly influential and popular in contexts beyond the school, and whose educational potential is not yet being tapped to any significant degree in classrooms. This book is very much concerned with engaging students in do-it-yourself digitally mediated meaning-making practices. As such, it is organized around three broad areas of digital media: moving media, still media, and audio media. Specific DIY media practices addressed in the chapters include machinima, anime music videos, digital photography, podcasting, and music remixing. Each chapter opens with an overview of a specific DIY media practice, includes a practical how-to tutorial section, and closes with suggested applications for classroom settings. This collection will appeal not only to educators, but to anyone invested in better understanding—and perhaps participating in—the significant shift towards everyday people producing their own digital media. |

FILMGUARD 120MM 1000′ CLEAR $49.95 @@ Until recent years, archival film storage had been associated, at least in the public mind, with museums, government agencies, libraries, or other institutions concerned with the preservation of photographic records; however, other users of photographic film, such as commercial photographers, printing houses, publishers, and schools, have long been concerned with how best to ensure permanence of their irreplaceable photography. @@ A sophisticated generation of amateur photographers who observed how time, humidity and casual storage damaged valuable slides and prints, nowadays, have converted to using archival storage techniques. They, too, appreciate that a picture good enough to keep is good enough to keep forever. @@ Exclusive thin backing coupled with high clarity provides excellent resolution when proofing without removing negatives from the preserver. No other manufactured preserver has this feature. Also, continuous seams eliminate the problem of negatives hanging up in the sleeve itself. You can literally load and unload Print File preservers easier and faster. |

Forgotten Futures: British Municipal Cinema 1920-1980 $25.22 From the 1920s until a decade after the Second World War, British municipalities not only controlled commercial screenings and cinemas, but also almost all projected and rental non-commercial films. Forgotten Futures examines municipal cinema as a filmic representation of urban and social reform in twentieth century Britain by looking at the relationship to documentary and educational cinema, the influence of the nineteenth century documentary photography and traditional forms of popular culture. It is the first book on municipal cinema in Britain and examines new perspectives on documentary photography, film and art.The book explains why municipal films were more than simple propaganda and what their influence is in the making of the social democratic model of modern British everyday urban life. There’s a closer look into the activities of the Glasgow Corporation and the Bermondsey Borough Council: two socialist municipalities who promoted their political identities through their making and sponsorship of films over several decades.Although the Glasgow Corporation was the first local authority in Britain to commission a film of its activities, Bermondsey Borough Council was the first to make its own films. Between 1922 and 1956 Bermondsey Borough Council produced 39 films as part of a campaign of public health and personal hygiene and as an advertisement for its achievements and services. Subjects varied from the care of teeth, the cleanliness of the body, the physical and moral risks of hop picking to childcare, public gardens and the management of tuberculosis. The films were shown for free in town halls, clinics, schools, youth clubs, working-men’s clubs, political associations and trade unions. The professionally made imageries of the Glasgow Corporation represent the city’s evolution from its status as ‘Second City of the Empire’ to a post-war form of Scottish identity.The book finishes with a look at |

A woman grieving more than one loss.On her regular walks amongst the splendor of the Audubon Society sanctuary, situated at the edge of the Florida Everglades, the sights and sounds of nature filled the void in Mel’s soul.She found peace here. No tears for what might have been. Only joy for having experienced the ecstasy of a great love. Her secrets stayed buried.In another part of the world an exquisitely beautiful young woman also found peace by immersing herself in nature, capturing its beauty on film for National Geographic.Educated in Europe’s finest boarding schools, Neev became a model at fourteen, but after four years of posing and false smiles she knew she wanted more out of life. She quit modeling to study Philosophy at Oxford University. Neev’s love of photography brought her to the other side of the camera lens, and to exotic locations around the globe. Working on assignment with famous photographer Roger Andrew, she often trekked deep into the jungle in search of rare flowers.Having a young, beautiful woman as a partner seemed like a good omen, and Roger thought their travels together could lead to a unique discovery. In spite of the age difference, their shared passion soon blossomed into a loving relationship. He wondered why someone so young would crave this nomadic, isolated lifestyle. Although Neev did share bits of information about her family, she always kept parts of her past a secret.When a Ghost Orchid began to bloom at the Audubon Society sanctuary, Roger knew this was the opportunityhe’d been waiting for.

It’s a Snap!: George Eastman’s First Photo $8.72 In 1877 in Rochester, New York, George Eastman couldn’t understand why picture-taking was so difficult. Having left school at fourteen to support his mother and two sisters, George decided to find out by making photography his hobby. He packed up glass plates, a plate holder, a tent, a heavy tripod, a thick piece of black cloth, a water jug, and chemicals and set off to take his first photograph. George realized that not many people could own a camera — they were too expensive and the size of today’s microwave ovens! But how could he make picture-taking easier? Eventually, George created dry plates, and they were such a success that he opened his own dry-plate company in 1881. But this was only the beginning — George went on to invent film and the Brownie camera. The rest is history.Monica Kulling’s spunky, playful text is beautifully complemented by the stunning pen-and-ink with watercolor illustrations of artist Bill Slavin. It’s a Snap! George Eastman’s First Photo introduces a new series for Tundra — the Great Idea Series — a must-have for schools, libraries, and parents alike. |

Keepsakes: Using Family Stories in Elementary Classrooms $27.5 Keepsakes demonstrates how elementary teachers can draw on family stories to enliven and enrich the curriculum, giving children a direct connection with the past and an immediate sense of history. It is an uplifting look at a truly multicultural curriculum–one that celebrates differences and similarities and strengthens the bonds between families and schools. Practical and broad in scope, Keepsakes draws on an ethnographer’s descriptions of public and private school classrooms in urban, suburban, and inner-city settings. It suggests many different strategies for using family stories, from cooking and photography to oral history, storytelling, poetry, memoir writing, immigration studies, and living history theatre. Each chapter describes how family stories can enhance children’s self-esteem, increase their creativity and confidence in academic skill, help build a warm classroom community, and involve families in natural and meaningful ways. The book includes guidelines for developing a family stories curriculum, photographs, examples of children’s work, an annotated bibliography of related picture books for each chapter, and a list of resources for teachers. In a time when many teachers are facing ever-changing family configurations and increasing diversity among students, Linda Winston offers a realistic view of what we mean by “family,” a ready-to-go curriculum that encourages sensitivity, creativity, and cooperation among children, their teachers, and families. This book will have broad appeal to teachers in many different subject areas. |
