Romania: European Central Bank Annual Photography Award 2009 (English and Romanian Edition) European Central Bank

Anyone seeking Europe"s emerging socio-documentary photographers will be engrossed by the talent revealed in this oversized, full-color volume of winners and finalists in the European Central Bank"s Annual Photography Award. The award rotates among countries; 2009 focused on Romania. First-prize winner Nico Ilfoveanu"s lyrical Steampunk Autochromes, made with a box camera and a lens treated for color, take industrial vestiges and turn them into painterly Romantic imagery. Second and third-place winners Losif Kiraly and Dragos Lumpan chronicle an urban and rural nation that at times seems medieval, at times post-industrial. The book also includes exciting work by competition runners-up, and a mini history of Romanian photography. Inspiring work from the edge of the West -- or is it the East? Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Romania: European Central Bank Annual Photography Award 2009 (English and Romanian Edition) (European Central Bank)
