    Abstract: This past year Boris Mikhailov joined the ranks of William Eggleston, Cindy Sherman, and Robert Frank as the recipient of the prestigious Hasselblad Award, confirming the international stature and critical acclaim he has earned in the last few years with one-person exhibitions at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, London's Photographer's Gallery, and the DAAD Gallery in Berlin as well as representation in major international surveys such as the Carnegie International. His first book, Unfinished Dissertation, was published by Scalo in 1997, on the occasion of his receipt of the Albert Renger-Patzsch Prize; in 2000, he published his second book with Scalo, Case History, and was awarded the photo book award of the International Festival for Photography in Arles, France. Mikhailov also recently accepted an invitation to teach at Harvard University beginning in the fall of 2000. This new book contains a never-before published series of work from the early 1980s: Mikhailov photographed ''The Dancers" in his hometown in the Ukraine during a period when the former Soviet Union was a reality, before the appearance of Gorbachev and perestroika. We observe the open-air dancing scene with great astonishment; seeing older and younger people enjoy themselves in a way that might be contradictory to the images we might have about everyday life in the old Soviet Union. An essay by Russian art critic Boris Greys and an exhaustive interview make this volume a must have for readers and libraries interested in contemporary art and photography.

    Abstract: The early practitioners of photography in the late 19th century and first decades of the 20th century shaped the evolving language of the medium by expanding the limits of the photographic vision. Many of these pioneers were immigrants - people displaced by choice or, quite often, by necessity. These photographers became observers and interpreters of their new surroundings through the filters of their different cultures, languages and religions. Photography in the 20th century (particularly the Modernist vision) is deeply indebted to them. Displaced Visions reconsiders the work and influence of key figures in modernist photography from the point of view of their status as immigrants, considering how this condition affected their vision and creativity and enhanced the development of the photographic language in general. It features the work of nearly 100 photographers, including André Kertész, Brassai, Bill Brandt, Man Ray, Robert Frank, the New York School photographers, the Photo League Photographers, Lisette Model, Moholy-Nagy, Erich Salomon, Weegee, William Klein, Tina Modotti, Inge Morath and many more. It accompanies a major touring exhibition opening at The Israel Museum, Jerusalem in spring 2013.

    Keywords: Fotograf ; Fotografie ; Sozialdokumentarische Fotografie ; Ukraine
    Abstract: This volume offers an overview of the career of the Ukrainian photographer Boris Mikhailov. The work of Mikhailov is seen through the eyes of filmmaker David Teboul who completed a documentary about the artist in 2010 – Boris Mikhailov: I’ve Been Here Once Before. Mikhailov is one of the most important artists to have emerged from the former Soviet Union, and for more than 30 years has taken photographs that engage with the idea of the individual living within the historical and political system, the breakup of the Soviet Union and its many human casualties. Extensively illustrated with stills from Teboul’s film including Mikhailov with his work, the book also includes transcripts of Mikhailov’s conversations with Teboul; here he provides insight into both his own work and, more generally, the life of an artist in the Soviet Union before and after its fall. This volume brings into focus Mikhailov’s beautifully crafted and often melancholy body of work, which was relatively unknown prior to the collapse of the Soviet Union.

    Abstract: This is the first book ever published on the famous Russian photographer Boris Mikhailov's fascinating early body of work entitled the Superimposition series. Boris Mikhailov (b.1938) is the most influential Russian photographer living today. An artist, a documentary photographer and a social observer, he has experimented with many photographic styles and his work is highly respected by both the photography world and contemporary art lovers. In this series from the late 60s to early 70s, he has overlayed two colour slides, creating fascinating "sandwiches", i.e beautifully composed tableaux of glamorous naked women, surreal urban landscapes and strange scenes of everyday Soviet life.
