It was a country in transition, although still under the influence of the Cultural Revolution. Most of the population still wore Mao suits and walls were covered in colorful slogans. Some years later, Barbey returned and saw the effects of Deng Xiaoping's invitation to the people to 'Get Rich'. Nnjing, Suzhou, Macao, Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai.... Barbey returned to China many times and noted on each visit, with his photos as evidence, the profound changes that were transforming the country. This book comprises a selection of the photographs he has taken over the past 40 years. It is a portrait of a country on the move - from post-revolutionary state to world economic superpower.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49736928297233,"sku":"NGR9789814610094","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50720609304849,"sku":"GOR011407729","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9814610097.jpg?v=1775728866"},{"product_id":"bruno-barbey-book-bruno-barbey-9782330053949","title":"Bruno Barbey","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50709974614289,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50709975531793,"sku":"GOR011652746","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/2330053940.jpg?v=1751188824"},{"product_id":"italians-book-bruno-barbey-9780810905580","title":"The Italians","description":"This is a sensitive portrait of Italian society in the early sixties by well-known photographer Bruno Barbey. From 1961 to 1964, Barbey spent much time in Italy trying to capture the spirit of the nation through his photography. Now, for the first time, his results have been collected into one book. Barbey's subjects have the archetypical profiles that are instantly recognizable from the popular Italian films of Pasolini, Visconti, and Fellini - the modern commedia dell'arte of the ragazzi, nuns, aristocracy, carabinieri, priests, beggars, prostitutes, and mafiosi. Barbey's sensitive eye and Tahar Ben Jelloun's subtle pen chart Italy's emotional geography from Rome to Milan.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51713057980689,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51713058046225,"sku":"GOR008422957","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0810905582.jpg?v=1751107080"},{"product_id":"splendours-of-the-atlas-book-mous-lamrabat-9788836658930","title":"Splendours of the Atlas","description":"The exhibition Splendours of the Atlas: A Voyage through Morocco’s Heritage seeks to capture the essence and celebrate the unique identity of Morocco by showcasing its history, wisdom and crafts, alongside its unique colours and sounds.   By bringing together collections from Morocco and Qatar, the exhibition - and its accompanying catalogue - aims to inspire visitors and readers to appreciate the beauty and complexity of its cultural and artistic legacy. Its heritage is not just a static collection of artefacts and traditions: it is a living, breathing testament to the resilience and adaptability of its people. The syncretism between the converging cultures of Morocco has given rise to a unique blend of traditions and practices that continue to evolve into creative artistic expressions of the modern world.   Morocco has one of the richest and most vibrant medieval heritages, distinguished by the perpetuation of traditions through transmission and innovation. Positioned at the crossroads of Africa, the Mediterranean and Europe, Morocco has forged an exceptionally diverse culture. The traces left by successive civilisations, both tangible and intangible, attest to the technical and ideal development of the Moroccan population, highlighting the ingenuity of a society influenced by various cultural streams. Moreover, their achievements in architectural decoration, textiles, ceramics and calligraphy provide a key to understanding modern-day Morocco and are a perpetual source of inspiration for contemporary artistic expression.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52599382147345,"sku":"NIN9788836658930","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52676458512657,"sku":"NLS9788836658930","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9788836658930.jpg?v=1761078670"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-bruno-barbey.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
