In Detroit Has Been Good To Me, the companion catalog to his exhibition at the Detroit Institute of Arts, photographer Bruce Weber explores his ongoing fascination with the Motor City. Weber first visited Detroit in June of 2006 while on assignment for W, a monthly fashion magazine. The idea was to photograph a well-known model--in this case Kate Moss--as a starting point for a much broader exploration of an unfamiliar place, its culture, and, most importantly, its people. While many photographers at that time were recording the vulnerability of Detroit, Weber was completely taken with the vitality of the city and its citizens. This catalog features portraits of a wide spectrum of residents, from students and poets to fashion designers and teachers and musicians. Weber returned to the Motor City again last year to partner with the Detroit-based company Shinola. This time, he sought out familiar faces as well as new individuals who could speak to the city's dynamic evolution. This exhibition catalog includes photographs from these two assignments, presented together with portraits of prominent friends and colleagues who have strong ties to the city. Detroit Has Been Good To Me is softbound, 192 pages, with 130 duotone 23 color plates. It features poems by Naomi Long Madgett, Gil Scott-Heron and Aungelique Patton-James, as well as original essays by Bruce Weber and Nancy Barr, Curator of Photography at the Detroit Institute of Arts. Published by Little Bear Press. Limited edition of 2000 copies.

From the publisher: "Opening with an introduction by film director Peter Bogdanovich, Thank Your Lucky Stars presents a behind the scenes look at Hollywood celebrity. A photographer in the movie industry for over thirty years. John Hamilton portrayed film characters from the inside out-even John Ford made sure John was on the set. He captured not only the sense of the sets, but also gave an intimate view of the actors themselves."

BRUCE WEBER: ALL - AMERICAN IV: OTHERWORLDLY

All-American V: Is Love Enough? is the latest installment in a series of limited edition art and literary journals created and published by Bruce Weber and Nan Bush. The goal of this Series is to celebrate the work of artists, essayists, photographers, poets and individuals who stand out as compelling examples of the American cultural experience. The provocative question posed by the title of All-American V: Is Love Enough? frames this book's thematic exploration of human devotion in its many forms. The centerpiece of this year's volume is a chapter devoted to the US Marine Corp, featuring original photography taken by Bruce Weber on the base at Camp Pendleton and extensive profiles of Sgt. Nick Popaditch, a Marine wounded in Baghdad, and Cpl. Jeff Boskovitch, who was killed in action in Iraq. Weber's photographs also appear in a career-spanning photo-essay on the Reverend Billy Graham. Additional chapters are dedicated to Mississippi civil rights activist Winson Hudson, rodeo photographer Louise Serpa, pulp fiction master Mickey Spillane, American playwright Tennessee Williams and painter Fairfield Porter. In a romantic nod to its title, this year's volume also features exclusive Henry Grossman photographs from the first marriage of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. All-American V is larger than preceding issues by over 50 pages. The softcover book is linen bound, and contains 192 pages, with 60 full color plates, and 40 duotones, with many images spanning two pages.
