Rezensionen / Stimmen
"When do we experience the purest of emotions: unfiltered, unfettered happiness? A new book of serotonin-soaked photographs has the answer: when running through a wedding day hailstorm, bouncing on a trampoline, rolling a giant snowball or, if you're a nun, attempting to squeeze your wimple into a car, alongside four others. Yes, really." -- Red "Bruce Velick is a gallery curator and created the new book Joy! as an exhibition of images of life's happiest moments, captured by photographers across the globe from the 1920s to the present. It's an uplifting collection that documents everyday moments you can't help but smile at." -- Psychologies "Joy! Photographs of Life's Happiest Moments is a new book that does exactly what it says on the cover: It's a collection of photos capturing moments of pure joy and contentment, curated by author, designer, and gallery director Bruce Velick." -- Metro
