Das Buch wurde von Nick Nichols selbst editiert und entworfen. Angeordnet sind seine Fotos in der Reihenfolge des Entstehens f\u00fcr die Agentur Magnum und sp\u00e4ter f\u00fcr National Geographic. Von 1980 bis 2018. Fast 40 Jahre Spitzenfotografie. Entstanden ist genau jenes Buch, von dem Nick \u201esein ganzes Fotografenleben lang getr\u00e4umt hat\u201c. Ohne jeden Kompromiss. Ultimativ. Im \u00fcbergro\u00dfen Querformat, 320 Seiten. 240 Fotografien \u2013 seine allerbesten. Ohne Texte l\u00e4sst Nick Nichols seine Fotos \u201esprechen\u201c. Begleitet von einem Special Edition Print. Ein Buch f\u00fcr ihn selbst und seine Freunde, ein Book for Friends.<\/p>\n

Erste Erfahrungen sammelte Michael Nichols bei der Zeitschrift GEO, ehe er drei Jahre sp\u00e4ter Mitglied der Agentur Magnum wurde. Von 1989 bis 2015 erarbeitete Nichols 30 Reportagen f\u00fcr das Magazin National Geographic. Dabei verfolgte er von Beginn an ein einziges Ziel: Wilde, unber\u00fchrte Landschaften ins Licht zu r\u00fccken, und mit ihnen die Gesch\u00f6pfe, die sie bev\u00f6lkern. Er versenkte sich ganz in seine Arbeit und verbrachte jeweils mehrere Monate damit, den Tieren so nah wie m\u00f6glich zu kommen und ihre Lebensweise und ihre Reviere kennenzulernen.<\/p>\n

Nick Nichols hat unter anderem mit der renommierten Primatenforscherin Jane Goodall zusammengearbeitet und mit dem Umweltaktivisten Mike Fay Afrika von Ost nach West durchquert. Seine Arbeit stand dabei immer im Zeichen der Erhaltung der nat\u00fcrlichen Lebensr\u00e4ume. In seinem umfangreichen Werk verschmilzt die Fotografie mit Journalismus, aber auch mit Wissenschaft und Technologie. \u201eWie schaffen Sie es, den Tieren so nahezukommen?\u201c \u2013 diese Frage h\u00f6rt Nichols immer wieder. Dann antwortet er oft schalkhaft: \u201eGanz einfach: Manchmal bin ich gar nicht da.\u201c In der Tat: Viele Aufnahmen hat Nichols mithilfe von Fotofallen gemacht. Diese Anlagen bleiben vollkommen unbemerkt und erm\u00f6glichen es dem Fotografen, gleichzeitig anwesend und abwesend zu sein. \u201eIch musste meiner Kamera beibringen, selbstst\u00e4ndig zu denken, an meiner Stelle, und sich etwa an die Lichtverh\u00e4ltnisse anzupassen…\u201c<\/p>\n

Eine Arbeit \u00fcber die L\u00f6wen der Serengeti, eine Studie \u00fcber die indischen Tiger Sita und Charger, eine gemeinsam mit Jane Goodall erarbeitete Reportage \u00fcber Schimpansen und viele Themen und Bilder mehr geben Einblick in Nick Nichols\u2019 gl\u00e4nzende Karriere und sind das Ergebnis sorgf\u00e4ltiger Arbeit. Sie f\u00fchren die Natur und ihre Gesch\u00f6pfe im Urzustand vor, ungesch\u00f6nt und ungeschminkt, und zeigen sie als gef\u00e4hrliche, faszinierende und unm\u00f6glich zu b\u00e4ndigende Wesen.<\/p>\n

Nichols Arbeiten wurden mit vielen Preisen ausgezeichnet, u.a. mit World Press Photo Award, Wildlife Photographer of the Year Award, Sony World Photography Award … Sein Foto \u201cSurfing Hippo\u201d wurde vom TIME magazine als \u201cone of the most influential images of all time\u201d ausgezeichnet. Seine bis dato letzte Einzelausstellung im Philadelphia Museum of Art wurde 2017 von 250.000 Besuchern gesehen.<\/p>\n

BOOKS FOR FRIENDS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Books for Friends is a unique ordering system for lifetime achievement books, retrospectives, long-term projects or topics of excellence. Only top-level photographers are invited to found a club of the who\u2019s who in documentary\/reportage\/street\/fine art photography. These books are available ONLY via this very direct and personal distribution system. No bookstores, no museum shops, no middlemen.<\/p>\n

Together with the publisher the photographers create the book they have always dreamt of realizing. It is ultimately their book \u2013 no compromises at all.<\/p>\n

As the orders for the first 500 copies came in, the photographer and the publisher did get together and produced the book. The books were printed and shipped across the Atlantic to Michael\u2019s home for signing them. The next step was the binding process which is mostly handmade and took another three weeks.<\/p>\n

All copies of the whole print run were signed by Michael Nichols and include a special edition letter-sized print (8.3\u2033\u00d711\u2033 \/ 21\u00d728cm). Our Friends have a choice of three images.<\/p>\n
