'The Book Of Everything' is a comprehensive collection of Mark's unflinching documentary of life and people as they really are...Mary Ellen was such an incredible documentarian of the whole world, but she helped her viewers understand fringe America., Depicting the beautiful and difficult of the every day, Mary Ellen Mark always found truth and empathy in her subjects. The Book of Everything is a three-part set that includes some of her most iconic photos, as well as previously unpublished work, providing an in-depth look at one of history's most renowned documentarians., The Book of Everything celebrates in over 600 images and diverse texts Mark's extraordinary life, work and vision. From 1963 to her death in 2015, Mark told brilliant, intimate, provocative stories of characters whom she met and engaged with--often in perpetuity. There was nothing casual or unprepared about Mark's approach; she unfailingly empathized with the people and places she photographed., An eloquent retrospective of [Mary Ellen Mark's] long career and should be an inspiration for documentary photographers everywhere., Manages to feel as intimate as a diary peek. Mark's strength as a documentary photographer -- her ability to embed in the uneasy, quickly shifting worlds of heroin users, psychiatric patients and white supremacists -- served her well when it came to capturing the flickering emotional undercurrents and surreal aspects of life, Still, holding each beautifully-designed volume, revisiting favorite photographs and reveling in candid snapshots or unseen frames (or the surprise of those orange pages) was a gift of an experience, one I will give myself over and over. Bell notes, I think in the third volume, that Mary Ellen would never have done this project. It is bittersweet that the existence of these comprehensive volumes resulted from her absence. And yet, it is also what makes them worth owning -- they reflect her work through the eyes of the people closest to her., Mary Ellen Mark made the kind of pictures that stung the heart and surprised the eye [...] she documented people on the outskirts of society--sex workers, street kids, cross-dressing beauty pageant contestants, patients in a women's psychiatric ward--creating memorable images that managed to be gritty, deeply empathetic, and, always, beautiful., The Book of Everything, serves as an eloquent retrospective of [Mark's] long career and should be an inspiration for documentary photographers everywhere. Spanning five decades of work, the book is broken into three volumes that examine, well, everything from well-known long-term projects to more casual snapshots that showcase Mark's talent for observation., Mark's art of empathy is unrolled at great expansive length in the three-volume The Book of Everything, which is organized chronologically, showing her travels and assignments and her leaps from milieu to wildly contrasting milieu, and also demonstrates her absolute consistency of approach, which unites all her subjects in one strong embrace.

Synopsis
A follow-up to her successful 2015 book The Meadow , this project focuses on Boston-based photographer Barbara Bosworth's (born 1953) images of the moon, sun and sky. Made over the past several years with an 8x10 camera, the star images are hour-long exposures with the camera mounted on a clock drive so that the stars are rendered as dots instead of streaks. The sun and moon images are made with a telescope attached to Bosworth's camera. Speaking of her inspiration for these series, Bosworth writes: "Every clear night of the summer my father would go out for a walk to look at the night sky. Many nights I would join him. We knew the North Star, and the Big Bear, but the rest became our own. At times we stood still for an hour or more to watch for shooting stars. We had no agenda. It was all about amazement at a sky full of stars. With this sense of wonder, I began making photographs of the Heavens. In these days of the Hubble Telescope and its spectacular imagery from deep space, I wanted a reminder of the mystery of our own night sky." The book also includes facsimile editions of three artist's books that Bosworth has made as a nod to Galileo's 17th-century publications in which he first observed the skies through a telescope., A decade worth of large-format long-exposure photographs of the moon, sun and sky A New York Times Book Review 2020 holiday gift guide pick A follow-up to her successful 2015 book The Meadow , this project focuses on Boston-based photographer Barbara Bosworth's (born 1953) images of the moon, sun and sky.
