Excellent survey of Hido's work, marred by poor photo placement
I'd give this excellent book an unequivocal 5 stars if it weren't for the fact that about 10% of the photos are spread between two pages with the crease of the page ruining the presentation of the photo (at least to my taste).However, the other reproductions are of excellent quality and the book is a very good survey of Hido's oeuvre.I am baffled by why an artist would allow their work to be printed across pages with the crease in the middle. It prevents the viewer from seeing the photo accurately and without distraction. I'd much prefer to view a smaller representation of the photo than see it this way.

Amazing book but let down by printing defects
It is an amazing publication but I was surprised to find a few defects - Aperture us usually very attentive to detail and quality. Several pics, particularly in the second part of the book have colour streaks that made marks on the opposite page. A few deep-toned pics also have white spots on it which is very irritating to the eye particularly knowing how much attention the artist pays to subtle tones and colours of the photos. Most possibly technical fault of the printers but very annoying for the book that supposed to be of high quality. Surely, Hido would have been be very disappointed. A few snaps of the relevant pages attached.

Stunning.
Wow. This is a stunning album of Hido's work, well printed/put together and at a extremely reasonable price. Do I need to say more.

Es lo que se espera de Hido.
El libro es precioso con una perfecta encuadernación, muy cuidada en todos los detalles.Como fotógrafo creo que está sobrevalorado, puede que tenga que ver con el tipo de audiencia a la que va dirigido. Los recursos de Hido son bastante limitados y monotemáticos, básicamente desarrolla tres temas. Las urbanizaciones que fotografía de noche con sus paseos. Los desnudos ... prefiero no opinar.Lo que si destaco y es el valor que tiene son unas pocas fotos en las que combina la contaminación lumínica, la niebla y a menudo un encuadre desprolijo que crea tensión. Es interesante ver esas pocas fotos en papel y disfrutarlas.

Indispensables
Soberbio libro recopilatorio de Todd Hido. Un maestro en el manejo de las luces y la soledad. Además no es sólo los edificios que le hicieron famoso, sino todo su repertorio: naturaleza, carretera, moteles y mujeres. Todo envuelto en la oscuridad.
