In her second book for Rizzoli, curator, writer, and avid swimmer Lou Stoppard offers the promise of sunshine and the seduction of youth in her edit of some of the best contemporary swimming-pool photography.
Organized by theme, from the glamour of the poolside party to the simple, meditative pleasure of being in the water, the selected photographs are as inspiring as they are moving. Photographers whose images are featured in this book include Solve Sundsbo, Glen Luchford, Inez and Vinoodh, Ryan McGinley, Diana Markosian, Martin Parr, Martine Franck, Alex Webb, Coco Capitan, and Nick Knight.
