Invited to exhibit on the Mauvoisin dam in Switzerland, Joan Ayrton chose to photograph the dam and the surrounding landscape with a camera called Tessina. An extremely tiny camera which appeared on the market at the end of the 1950s, when the Mauvoisin works were completed. In a history that is highly emblematic of the modern era, that of the construction of dams in the Swiss Alps, and that of a watchmaking industry that, following the stock market crash of 1929, had to reinvent itself, entering the field of photography.

Matthew Harvey Future Estate
208 p, colour 24 × 17 cm, hb, English
ISBN 9789464460681
Euro 40.00 (incl. 9%VAT)
Future Estate is a long term research project documenting how places are organized and disorganized by commodity production; the geopolitics of development; and the zoning practices, extractions, and transnational investments that come with uneven processes of global labor and distribution. Drawn to the messy and contingent worlds where life plays out, the book makes use of the unheroic image, the sideways view of the margins, offering alternative pathways to consider a world produced, consumed, constructed, maintained, variously inhabited, and precariously lived.

Read me while you walk. Hold me while you stand. Put me down while you take a pause.
This is a collaboration between Soapbox and WARP research group.
“What might be considered the research output of a walking practice? Where and when does the research occur in relation to the walk, the walking and the walkers? Does the walk activate our senses, or do our senses demand that we walk? What and where are the objects and subjects of a walk? How might walking help us emphasise our connection to the more-thanhuman world? What are the entry points to a city through walking? How might walking provide a path toward more socially just urban spaces and commons?”

ISBN 9789464460698
Euro 45.00 (incl. 9%VAT)
A collection of works by Henri Jacobs who has been conducting an investigation into two-dimensionality, the flat nature and recto-verso proposition of a surface. Materialising in various forms such as plaited paintings to wall hangings, murals, brickwork, ceramic works, and drawings made using a variety of techniques. One technique Jacobs regularly experiments with is that of plaiting paper, whereby old and new works or figurative and geometric images are woven together into a two-sided 2-D surface that is image, pattern, texture, and structure all-in one.

The Images of Luis Barragán
80 p, colour 21 × 28 cm, pb, English ISBN 9789464460711 price not yet set
The photos presented in this publication show images collected by the Mexican architect Luis Barragán (1902-1988) as part of a reference archive that he displayed on a large wooden monk’s lectern in the living room of his house in Mexico City. The somewhat bulky piece of furniture, occupying almost all of the room in front of a large window facing the garden, presented the particulars of Barragán’s thinking in a fluctuating arrangement of illustrations. During a stay in Mexico City in January 2011, Roger Willems and Mark Manders captured a set of individual images taken against the wooden floorboards of the Barragán House.

Ari Marcopoulos Black Snow
148 p, bw
19.5 x 30.5 cm, pb, English
ISBN 978946446xxxx price not yet set
In October Ari Marcopoulos went to Saas Fee in Switzerland to work on his short film Butter. The film was shot on the glacier where they make a halfpipe for professional snowboarders to kick off their competitive season. Some time after finishing the film Ari had the idea of asking a group of snowboarders to send him their favourite clips of tricks and that resulted into another film Black Snow. He then desaturated and inverted the clips so that they look like a blackand-white negative, connecting the relatively new technique of multichannel video to the beginnings of photography. In this process the clip by Haku Shimasaki stood out and has been made into this publication.
