      „My book Havana is just a superficial look, not a soul-searching investigation, a quick impression of a place that is unique in its geographical position, being much closer to the United States of America than the space station. Both are places ordinary Americans cannot visit. To be one of the poorest nations on Earth, almost within spitting distance of the richest makes the poverty of Cuba seem more extreme. Two countries with extreme ideologies; the small one proving that Communism does not work, the other proving that democratic paranoia does work if the power and the money are in place.“ David Bailey Havana shows Bailey at the height of his powers, producing photographs that reflect his mastery of the full range of the distinct genres of the medium. From vibrant street reportage to seering portraiture, this book offers a quintessential view of a city which is the touchstone for one of the most distinct cultural and political devides in a world fast moving toward homogeneity.

      The dialogue between practice and theological education in youth ministry is the focal point of this qualitative study. David Bailey reveals how youth ministers use "theological shorthand" to communicate their experiences and beliefs, which fosters meaningful connections and long-term commitment to their work. However, this shorthand also presents challenges, as it may disconnect youth ministry from the broader Christian narrative. The exploration highlights both the significance and the risks involved in this unique communication style within the context of youth ministry.

    • In January 1962, still in his early twenties, photographer David Bailey fulfilled a dream that dated back to his years in Singapore, when he served in the Royal Air Force. Heading to the U. S., home to the jazz music he so admired, Bailey made his first foreign trip for Vogue, accompanied by his model and girlfriend, Jean Shrimpton. The impact of the couple's early collaborations set new standards that helped put Britain back on the world map of popular culture - though at the time, his aesthetic was so controversial that, as a representative of the magazine, Vogue asked him not to wear his leather jacket in the St. Regis Hotel. (Of course he ignored the advice.) The groundbreaking series that Bailey produced with his recently acquired 35mm camera was special. Newly freed from the confines of the studio, he shot rapidly on the streets and recorded the pioneer moment just before meeting Andy Warhol, and a year before his friends the Rolling Stones launched their own transatlantic invasion. Bailey's historic visual breakthrough is manifested in the energy of these images, even as they convey a certain innocence - the photographs of these „absolute beginners“ have a charm and freshness that still resonate today.
