Despite a career that was curtailed at the age of 29, Vladimr Jindrich Bufka (18871916) was
one of the most distinctive early-twentieth-century art photographers in Prague and indeed in all
of Austria-Hungary. Bufka drew on contemporary artistic movements such Impressionism,
Symbolism and Cubism for his pioneering prints using the demanding process of gum printing.

The Czech photojournalist Jindrich Marco (19212000) is best known for his World War II
photographs, which, rather than depicting killing fields, captured the ordinary citizens of war-torn
cities like Berlin, Dresden and Warsaw returning home and attempting to pick up the pieces. This
monograph includes these and later series made throughout Europe in happier times.

Simen Johan - Until The Kingdom Comes
Yossi Milo Gallery 2014 ISBN 9780615855875 Acqn 23644
Pb 32x39cm 64pp 26col ills 45

Simen Johan's ongoing series of photographs and sculptures, Until the Kingdom Comes, begun
in 2005, depicts a natural world that is at once familiar and otherworldly. Most (but not all) of the
images are intricate digital constructs incorporating elements the artist photographed in various
geographical locations. Towering giraffes, captured in various US zoos, populate a hazy, desolate
landscape created from images taken in Turkey, Bali and Iceland; spectacular Javan peacocks
from Asia are camouflaged within a Spanish pepper tree; and the interior of an Icelandic volcano
forms the setting for a gooey tar pit where Peruvian yellow-hooded blackbirds nest. Each image
confuses the boundaries between opposing forces such as the natural and the artificial, the
serene and the eerie, the primal and the mindful. These dynamic tensions reflect the internal
conflicts and contradictions inherent to human nature that fuel Johan's work. Only a limited
quantity of this oversize, unbound volume is available.

Hiroshi Sugimoto - On The Beach
Amana 2014 ISBN 9784907519032 Acqn 23850
Pb 26x36cm 68pp 28ills 2col 44.50

In 1990, photographer Hiroshi Sugimoto visited the seas of New Zealand. On one particular
deserted beach, he discovered hundreds of car parts, probably from the 1960s, disintegrated and
corroded by decades under the waves. Photographing them individually, he imagined that human
civilization had ended, thinking that the sight of crafted objects rotting away is at once dreadful
and beautiful. This series of heavily black-and-white images of decaying metal on the sand are
reproduced in this large-format photo book, accompanied by an introspective text by Sugimoto on
the nature of the sea and the inexorable, practically incomprehensible, passage of time.

Photographers Rinko Kawauchi and Terri Weifenbach met for the first time in Brooklyn five years
ago. After corresponding via email for some time, and eventually attaching photographs to those
messages, they decided to have a conversation only using their own photographs. More than a
year later, these personal picture letters are now the subject of a show at IMA Gallery in Tokyo
and this marvellous double book. Flipping through the pages of the mirrored bindings sets each
artists work opposite that of the other in a captivating progression of delicate and subliminal
beauty: small observations and radiant nuances plucked from the respective worldviews of these
two unusual talents.

John Gossage: Pomodori a Grappolo
Radius Books 2014 ISBN 9781934435847 Acqn 23901
Hb 28x33cm 288pp 146col ills 59.50

pomodori a grappolo is a collection of three interconnected books by photographer and
bookmaker John Gossage (born 1946). Each book takes the form of a visual short story based on
images made in Northern Italy and Sardinia between 2009 and 2011, and includes a short text by
Marlene Klein, written in response to Gossage's pictures, which reflects the 30 years that Klein
has spent living and working in Venice. As much a photographic essay as it is a study in the way
the book can inform perception, these three books--individually titled The Girl at the Crossing,
Nullo and Sideways Glance--are each a different trim size, but contain roughly 50 photos each
that are all reproduced at the same image size.

Eugene Richards - Red Ball Of A Sun Slipping Down
Many Voices Press 2014 ISBN 9780991218905 Acqn 23908
Hb 31x25cm 112pp 52ills 26col 35

The Arkansas Delta has been called at different times the soul of the South, the land of
opportunity, a place ruled by race, a forgotten place. Eugene Richards (born 1944) first went to
the delta as a VISTA volunteer in 1969. It was less than a year after the assassination of Dr.
Martin Luther King, Jr., a time when cotton, religion, prejudice and poverty were what
characterized most peoples' lives. Increasingly drawn to this both sorrowful and beautiful place,
Richards would stay for more than four years, working as a social worker and reporter until the
community service organization and newspaper he helped found were forced to close their doors.
But over the years he would keep returning. Red Ball of a Sun Slipping Down is a book that
speaks of remembrance and change, of struggle and privation, of loving and loss, of then and
now. Black-and-white photographs made long years ago but never before published are
interwoven with recent colour photographs and, in turn, with a short story that relates Richards'
relationship with an impoverished delta family as well as a growing awareness of his own aging
and mortality.

Ari Versluis & Ellie Uyttenbroek - Exactitudes 20th Anniversary Ed. expanded With 10 New
Series
nai010 publishers 2014 ISBN 9789462081710 Acqn 24029
Hb 24x32cm 320pp ills 136col 41.95

Inspired by interest in the striking dress codes of various social groups, Rotterdam-based
photographer Ari Versluis and profiler Ellie Uyttenbroek have systematically documented
numerous identities. They call their series 'Exactitudes': a contraction of 'exact' and 'attitude'. By
registering their subjects in an identical framework they provide an almost scientific record of
people's attempts to distinguish themselves from others by assuming a group identity. The
apparent contradiction between individuality and uniformity is taken to such extremes that the
artistic aspect dominates the purely documentary element. For this twentieth anniversary edition
they produced ten new series. Rotterdam's heterogeneous street scene remains a major source
of inspiration for them, although they have also visited Milan, Beijing, Rio de Janeiro, Casablanca,
Praia (Cabo Verde), New York, Bordeaux, London and Paris.

Between 1981 and 1991, Thomas Ruff collected photographs from German newspapers and
weeklies, amassing an archive of 2500 images. In 1990 and 1991, he selected 400 images from
it, according to entirely subjective criteria, photographed them without captions, and had them
reproduced as colour prints at twice their original size. For this book, Ruff re-photographed the
templates of the 'Zeitungsfotos' series so they could be reproduced in black-and-white on a
coloured background.

Jan Hoek - New Ways Of Photographing The New Masai
Art Paper Editions 2014 ISBN 9789490800192 Acqn 23727
Pb 24x33cm 72pp 30ills 28col 26.50

Dutch artist Jan Hoek engages with the nasty, funny, painful or touching things that happen when
photographing people. His work reflects the often tricky ethics involved in the relationship
between the photographer and model. Hoek saw the Masai people photographed time and again
in the same way: jumping in a natural setting while wearing traditional clothing and jewellery.
Nowadays, however, more Masai are living in towns with all the modern conveniences that
entails, like mobile phones, cars and trendy sneakers. For this photo series, he gathered seven
urban Masai in an attempt to find a new way to photograph them. The resulting portraits are both
personal and absurd.

Pb 22x31cm 76pp 54ills 49col 26.50

This series of photographs by young Belgian photographer Stine Sampers is presented in a
simple, no-frills format. Her intimate portraits capture young people in casual, unrehearsed
moments: sleeping, undressing, bathing, daydreaming. Interspersed among these introspective
vignettes are mundane scenes from both natural and domestic settings. The images raise
questions about their subjects identities, troubles, personalities and lives, anchored as they are
among a non-specific context of trees and buildings.

With its fragmented images of nude bodies and voyeuristic glimpses of erogenous zones,
counterposed with various objects and still life scenes saturated with meaning, this photo book by
Aaron McElroy gives clues to a hidden narrative of sex, its bodily rituals and emotional
consequences from a female perspective. What do women do to make themselves attractive?
What does consent actually mean? How often do women feel guilt or regret, or what happens
when they are left to deal with the aftermath, alone? Somewhere between a mysterious note and
blood on the shower floor lies the answer.

Luisa Lambri Interiors
Ivory Press 2014 ISBN 9788493834074 Acqn 24196
Hb 22x28cm 196pp 100ills 75col 43.95

Ivorypress presented this new catalogue to accompany the first solo exhibition of Luisa Lambri
(Como, Italy, 1969) in Madrid, held at Ivorypress between 26 May and 9 July 2011. The book
includes an interview with the artist by curator and art critic Massimiliano Gioni, as well as texts
by Walead Beshty, Douglas Fogle, Adriano Pedrosa, and the Japanese architects Kazuyo Sejima
and Ryue Nishizawa (SANAA). Lambris work is the result of her emotional as well as intellectual
response to some of the most iconic modernist buildings of the 20th Century, designed by
architects such as Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Oscar Niemeyer, Le Corbusier, Frank Lloyd
Wright, Luis Barragan and Giuseppe Terragni, among others. As Douglas Fogle explains, in
Lambris work the subjective takes precedence over the objective and the architectural detail is
elevated to a place of prominence over the totality of the building.

Published in conjunction with an exhibition of images by Tomoko Yoneda at the Tokyo
Metropolitan Museum of Photography, this catalogue reflects how her work tends towards
photography as a documentary medium, addressing visible subjects while also projecting the
memories and histories associated with places and things. In her older work, this especially deals
with subjects involved in the modernisation of Japan. In this way, Yoneda asks the viewer to
rethink the essence of reality, and of what we are actually able to see. Through her static and
compelling images, our awareness expands through new series and videos by the artist, plus an
essay by Fujimura Satomi.

Photography exists by the virtue of light, but the landscapes in Awoiska van der Molens
photographs loom out of the darkness. Her monochrome photographic works arise out of a desire
to penetrate deeply into the core of the isolated world in which she photographs. Van der Molen is
known for her monochrome landscapes. She stands out as someone who remains rooted in the
riches of analogue photography and printing; expressing these roots in an extreme manner by
creating monumental pieces that combine intentionality in choice of subject and photographic
craftsmanship.

Yukichi Watabe - Stakeout Diary 2
nd
Edition
Roshin Books 2014 ISBN 9784990723002 Acqn 24365
Hb 23x31cm 104pp 74ills 45

Yukichi Watabe documented the investigation of a grisly murder that had occurred in Mito (Ibaraki
Prefecture) in 1958. Watabe closely followed two police detectives, one from the Metropolitan
Police Department and the other local. Their investigation involved stakeouts around downtown
areas of Tokyo, areas that have since changed beyond recognition.
Some photographs from the series appeared in a magazine in the same year but there was no
opportunity for any further publication. As a result, the photographs were little known. In 2006, a
British dealer in old books found 120 sheets of these photo works at Jinbou-chou (central Tokyo),
and the work was published in Paris in 2011. This photo book, A Criminal Investigation, attracted
attention all over the world.
For this new publication, we have borrowed negatives from Hiroyuki Watabe, the son of Yukichi
Watabe, for a fresh selection, using prints made especially for the purpose.
