Art Architecture Photography Books

290 Pages,8" x 5.5", Paperback. 201 small black & white photographs. Even though the text is informative, the subject matter cries out for a much larger format, and much larger photographs in color. This small paperback does not do the well-chosen items justice. With so many great books on African Art available, this one is for serious art historians only.

Weinberg's photography is beautiful: gritty and linear and simultaneously glossy and sensual--like the city he has depicted. But what I find most interesting is that his photographs of refelections on buildings have caused me to look for similar images, colors and reflections as I travel about. I'm seeing some of Chicago in a new and exciting way.

Vivid colors, inspiring images in a very appealing format. Book has a high production value, making it one of those reference books you keep on your shelf and refer to year after year. Glitterati is to be commended on a beautiful print job. Along with abstract images as this book captures remarkably, [..]

Mr. Weinberg has unchained the camera from the rigidity of classic architectual photography. His photographs of high rise buildings and the images that the reflections present has opened my eyes and enabled me to see structures in a new and magical way. The artist has taken steel, concrete and glass and transformed them into abstract art forms. Bravo, Dave Weinberg.

My dad is an architect and an art lover. Picked up this book for his birthday and he was thrilled. Nice value for the money and it really stood out as an easy choice to buy! I'm going to pick up a copy for myself.

I am not usually a big fan of photo books but when I started flipping through this book at a friend's house, I couldn't put it down! The images are surreal and imaginative, to the point that the photographs seem to be of hand crafted jewelry or nature, not just of concrete, steel and stone. I ended up buying the book myself and even bought a second copy to give as a gift! Definately buy this if you like architecture, photography, or even just looking at something beautiful. I hope Weinberg puts out more books like this!
