| | |  In Art / Books illuminating new monograph on the late, great, British fashion photographer Terence Donovan (who never allowed a book of his photographs to be published in his lifetime), the artist is quoted, "Photography is an elusive craft. I don’t consider it art because it is very specific and finite – not like painting, which evokes emotion beyond what you see. Nevertheless, it is a very difficult thing to make work. It is a curious combination of precision and chaos. A photographer must have a grasp of a complex cockpit drill in order to overpower the technical density which is very evident the more you understand photography." Featured image, of model Hiroko Matsumoto posing for "Ces Collections romantiques Pierre Cardin" in the March 3, 1966, edition of French Elle, is reproduced from Terence Donovan Fashion. For a slideshow of additional images from the book, see The New York Times Lens blog.

FEATURED LIBRARY Information design pioneer Edward Tufte sums up the ever-increasing relevance of graphic design to our times with his observation that “clutter is a failure of design, not an attribute of information.” In the golden age of paraphernalia, it falls to the graphic designer to clarify the clutter, and the ability to compose visual and linguistic data so that it grabs both eye and mind determines the success of just about every merchandized product, from a flyer in the mailbox to the web. Historically, graphic design has also defined the look of entire avant-garde art movements and even whole eras, through album art and movie posters. Below is a selection of our finest monographs and surveys on graphic design, from modernist Italian travel posters to web design. continue
