London: MACK, 2020, 126pp., . LACKING THE TWO POSTCARDS - Series: Discourse, 003 "In January 2020, Alec Soth received a letter from Chris Fausto Cabrera, an inmate of the Minnesota Correctional Facility in Rush City, in which he asked the photographer to engage in a dialogue. This sparked an expansive and insightful correspondence over the following nine months which, set against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Lives Matter Movement and growing unrest, reaches to the heart of contemporary America. In amongst their exchanges of personal histories and shared influences - from Ralph Ellison's The Invisible Man and André 3000, to Robert Frank's The Americans and Rilke's 'Letters to a Young Poet' - developed a searing investigation of the redemptive power of art and the imagination, justice and accountability, life inside America's prisons, and the astonishing capacity of empathy and curiosity to bring two people together.".

Mild edgewear; near fine. Full-bleed double-exposed black-and-white photographs, mostly of street and urban scenes, by Welsh photographer Jason Evans (b. 1968). From the publisher: "NYLPT is a result of Evans's compulsive visual collecting alongside an informed and intuitive focus that frames reoccurring motifs in a process-driven work. Evans invests in chance, luck and persistence, randomly layering exposures on film in camera; what emerges are delightful surprises - the reward for not thinking too much - and a visual thinking matter that is both familiar and strange.".…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: No dust jacket as issued. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. Photographically illustrated paper-covered boards; no dust jacket as issued. Photographs of vintage postcards from the collection of her grandmother and text by Anne Sophie Merryman. Unpaginated, with four-color plates throughout. 10-3/4 x 10 inches. [Cited in Martin Parr and Gerry Badger, The Photobook: A History, Volume III. (London and New York: Phaidon, 2014)]. New. Winner of the 2012 First Book Award by MACK and the British National Media Museum. From the publisher: "Miki Soejima is a magical realist, an escapologist who, for the first time, is stepping out to claim her identity as the photographer behind Mrs. Merryman's Collection, winner of the 2012 First Book Award. In the school of great fantasists such as Joan Fontcuberta, Japanese photographer Miki Soejima's work deals with the artifice at the heart of photography, and the influence of authorship. Her work comprises of a set of postcards which the artist has fabricated, and a fictional story that presents the work as objects collected by Anne-Marie Merryman, and inherited by her granddaughter Anne Sophie Merryman. From the artist: "The whole story is a fiction. I have fabricated a collection of postcards, attributing the imagery to a fictional character, Anne-Marie Merryman. Her granddaughter Anne Sophie Merryman presents the work to the public, as a set of postcards that she inherited in a wooden box. People looking at the postcards might realise they are fake through a set of hints, placed in the postcards themselves; and, at the end of the book, there is a hidden message. I created the postcards using my own photographs, and mixing different materials from postcards that I collected--so the texts on the back of the postcards are real messages in authentic handwriting. I often mix up the messages and the stamps, intentionally." "Some people think Anne Sophie is my pseudonym; but it's not--she plays an important role, as a character in the story and a presenter of the work. Anne Sophie and Anne-Marie came into my mind as I considered the relationship between author and audience, and between photography and authorship. I am interested in photography because it's a medium with a particular relationship to reality. In photography, we always cut-out a scene--elements or fragments from reality; and photographs have a very particular effect as they play with veracity. They can be used as evidence, but at the same time, they can be used as a persuasive tool. The author of the photographs and/or the author who relates the narrative around the photographs (sometimes they are the same person, sometimes separated) often has a very dominant presence--influencing their audience." "I wanted the audience to look at these images without the presence of an author, so I decided to remove myself from the work, and to make it anonymous. The work is presented as found postcards, each created by various anonymous authors. The audience is set free from the weight of the authorial voice, and therefore they can explore the work more freely. At the same time, I tried to evoke a persona, Anne-Marie, and her imaginary realm through the images that she collected. There are two layers: while Anne-Marie stemmed from the need to ascribe the collection to a character, Anne Sophie's role was, through the transmission of the collection, to make the work come alive." "It was an interesting experience, because when I took photographs for this project, I always had Anne-Marie in mind. As I looked for images, I was thinking about her, and what she would find interesting.".…

What the Living Carry unveils a small town named Hoy s Fork, situated in the American South. Drawing on memories of the rural setting in which he grew up, Virginian photographer Morgan Ashcom brings together photographs, type-written letters and a hand-drawn map to build a fictional narrative of a foreboding place. Leading us on a trail through the town and its surrounding forest, Ashcom presents scenes that point to a mysterious history, and people whose familial connections remain unknown: a forlorn old man, with champagne to hand, reclines on the corroding steps of a once grand home; a bloodied mattress is carried through an overgrown field; a solitary child burrows into a meadow, while on the streets, a man dutifully cleans a white picket fence a vision that belies a local mural of a distant, ancient land. Interspersing this fragmented narrative is a set of texts four letters responding to Morgan s request for DNA analysis written by Eugene of the Center for Epigenetics and Wellness of the Spirit . If What the Living Carry provides a set of clues to unravel the enigma behind this strange world, it is through a visual record that is simultaneously autobiographical and imagined, and inclined to elude.…

hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Fotografie a colori di Gregoire Pujade-Lauraine . Cm 17,5x23. pp. 32. . Ottimo (Fine). . Prima edizione di 1000 esemplari firmati (First edition of 1000 signed copies). . Double Orbit ci invita in un mondo compatto di segni ambigui, passaggi segreti e locali apparentemente infestati. Esplorando le periferie delle grandi metropoli occidentali, le fotografie di Grégoire Pujade-Lauraine studiano gli ambienti costruiti che ospitano e modellano la vita umana, rivelando i simboli criptici incisi sulle loro superfici e incorporati nelle loro ombre. Le forme incombenti sfidano una facile categorizzazione e da un crepuscolo persistente emergono periodicamente sconcertanti cifrari; una chiave sovradimensionata, una luna di cemento nero o l'illusione di un tempio senza confini.Le fotografie di Pujade-Lauraine ritraggono i dettagli banali dell'ambiente urbano, ma quando messe insieme si leggono come un set di tarocchi - diventando allegorie aperte, il loro significato si risveglia solo in combinazione. Double Orbit presenta un mondo sfuggente, i cui enigmi sembrano emergere indipendentemente dalle mani deliberate che lo hanno costruito e che allude ai misteri obliqui custoditi sulla superficie di un ambiente familiare.

Cm 21.5x23.8. pp. 112. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . "Nel dicembre del 1975 il fotografo olandese Bertien van Manen realizzò una serie di fotografie in bianco e nero che catturavano la vita quotidiana dell'Ungheria metropolitana. I will be  wolf riunisce molte di queste bellissime e inedite immagini, sotto la direzione editoriale del rinomato fotografo inglese Stephen Gill. Le sue istantanee di pendolari, drogherie, farmacie, baristi e venditori ambulanti contengono tutti i tratti distintivi di un'epoca passata, prima che la morsa della globalizzazione lasciasse il segno nel Paese. Impregnato di un'aria di ambivalente nostalgia, il libro prende il titolo dal poema Grief del poeta ungherese del XX secolo József Attila". Book.…

hardcover. Zustand: Perfetto (Mint). Prima edizione (First Edition). Fotografie in bianco e nero. Testo tratto da una conversazione tra Eyal Weizman e gli artisti Adam Broomberg & Oliver Chanarin svoltasi nel settembre 2015 . Cm 21,5x17. pp. 240. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . La serie di ritratti in questo libro, che include Yekaterina Samutsevich delle Pussy Riot e molti altri abitanti di Mosca, è stata creata da una macchina: un sistema di riconoscimento facciale sviluppato di recente a Mosca per la pubblica sicurezza e il controllo delle frontiere.Il risultato è più simile ad una maschera digitale che ad una fotografia; un facsimile tridimensionale del volto che può essere facilmente ruotato e attentamente esaminato. Ciò che è significativo di questa fotocamera è che è stata progettata per fare ritratti senza la collaborazione del soggetto: quattro lenti operano in tandem per generare un'immagine completa frontale del volto, anche se il soggetto stesso non sa di essere fotografato. Il sistema è stato progettato per il riconoscimento facciale in aree affollate come le stazioni della metropolitana, le stazioni ferroviarie, gli stadi, le sale da concerto o altre aree pubbliche, ma anche per fotografare persone che normalmente opporrebbero resistenza. Infatti qualsiasi soggetto incontri questo tipo di fotocamera è reso passivo, perché a prescindere dalla direzione in cui guarda, il volto è sempre reso frontalmente, spogliato di ombre, make-up, travestimento e addirittura espressione.Cooptando questo dispositivo, Broomberg e Chanarin hanno costruito la propria personale tassonomia di ritratti nella Russia contemporanea. Facendo eco al lavoro di August Sander, Broomberg e Chanarin hanno realizzato una serie di ritratti legati alle professioni. Ma i loro ritratti sono realizzati con questa nuova tecnologia, con poca o nessuna interazione umana. Sono a bassa risoluzione e frammentati. Il successo di queste immagini è determinato da quanto questa macchina riesce ad identificare il suo soggetto: le caratteristiche del naso, degli occhi, del mento e di come questi tre elementi si intersecano. Tuttavia essi non possono che essere ritratti di individui che lottano per una coesistenza civile con i poteri dello Stato. Book. …

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. Hardcover, 90p, [3]p : chiefly illustrations (color illustrations), color portraits ; 29 cm. Very good/fine, clean, crisp, unmarked. "Both an artist's book and comprehensive inquisition of D'Angelo Lovell Williams's work to date, Contact High offers an expansive engagement with the visualisation of desire and depiction of the Black body. Williams's narrative images reflect the many forms in which Black queer people exist and have existed historically within each other's lives, picturing them as sitters, lovers, caregivers, or shadows. Williams's work is guided by their life experience and an interrogation of their own perspective, as well as wider questions around the representation of race, class, sexuality, gender, and intimacy. The title Contact High references the importance of touch and gesture in Williams's work, and alludes to heightened senses and intuitive movement. From self-portraits to collaborations with community, Williams's photographs visualise the Black body in performative scenes that are theatrical, dance-like, and occasionally mundane, pointing towards collective histories and Black ancestral practices. At the heart of these intimate, dialogic images are notions of kinship and spirituality interweaved with quietly political and radical gestures. Williams's unfaltering gaze insists on visibility and deference, and creates scenes in which Black and queer voices are the authority. The dynamics that play out between families, cultures, friends, lovers, ancestors and descendants are visualised as a spectrum of care, tenderness, and vulnerability, speaking to the nuances of our complex lives often overlooked by historical depictions.".…

hardcover. Zustand: Perfetto (Mint). Prima edizione (First Edition). Con un saggio di Kevin Moore. 134 fotografie a colori di Roe Ethridge . Cm 29x20,5. pp. 96. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . In concomitanza con la prima esposizione personale in un museo del Nord America, Neighbours presenta più di 15 anni di lavoro di Roe Ethridge, che ironicamente annulla le distinzioni tra uso commerciale, concettuale e personale della fotografia. Il volume è diviso in tre "capitoli": la sezione centrale abbraccia l'intera opera del fotografo americano, dai suoi primi progetti autopubblicati alla sua opera più recente, ed è chiuso da due serie quasi imperscrutabili nel suo stile inconfondibile: scatti di famiglia in spiaggia o in campagna e immagini di animali da fattoria - tacchini, maiali, capre. Rendendo il quotidiano banale, quasi esilarante, Neighbors traccia l'evoluzione del tentativo di Ethridge di bombardare i suoi spettatori con un inebriante mix di immagini, sovvertendo i tropi stilistici di ogni genere e assaporando le stranezze della creazione e fruizione di immagini.
