Klimt and Schiele Drawings Katie Hanson Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele were two of the most daring and controversial artists in Vienna during the culturally turbulent decades around the turn of the 20th century. They worked out their provocative depictions of the human body, created in a search for psychological truth as well as physical realism, in the direct and intimate medium of drawing. The sixty important works exquisitely reproduced in large format in this volume range from early academic studies to more incisive and unconventional explorations of nature, psychology, sexuality and spirituality. By giving viewers access to these artistsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; worlds, this album of unforgettable drawings from the Albertina Museum, Vienna, provides a direct connection to the minds of two master draftsmen exploring the limits of representation, as well as the shock of recognition at seeing our own inner lives caught on paper.

The Museum of Modern Art

Published in conjunction with MoMA’s retrospective exhibition and in collaboration with the artist, this scholarly volume presents new critical essays that expand on Piper’s practice in ways that have been previously under- or unaddressed. Focused texts by established and emerging scholars assess themes in Piper’s work such as the Kantian framework that draws on her extensive philosophical studies; her unique contribution to first-generation Conceptual art; the turning point in her work, in the early 1970s, from Conceptual works to performance; the connection of her work with her yoga practice; her ongoing exposure of and challenge to xenophobia and sexism; and the relation between prevailing interpretations of her work and the viewers who engender them.

Adrian Piper: A Synthesis of Intuitions, 1965–2016 Edited by Connie Butler, David Platzker Texts by Christophe Cherix, Connie Butler, David Platzker, Okwui Enwezor, Adrian Piper Published in conjunction with the most comprehensive exhibition of Adrian Piper’s work to date, this catalogue presents more than 280 artworks that encompass the full range of the artist’s mediums: works on paper, video, multimedia installation, performance, painting, sound, and photo-texts. Essays by curators and scholars examine her extensive research into altered states of consciousness; the introduction of the Mythic Being – her subversive masculine alter-ego; her media and installation works from after 1980, which reveal and challenge stereotypes of race and gender; and the global conditions that illuminate the significance of her art. Previously unpublished texts by the artist lay out significant events in her personal history and her deeply felt ideas about the relationship between viewer and art object. This publication expands our understanding of the Conceptual and post-Conceptual art movements and Piper’s pivotal position among her peers and for later generations.

Ibrahim El-Salahi: The Prison Notebook Edited with text by Salah Hassan • Text by Ibrahim El-Salahi

£24.95 paperback ISBN 978 1 633 450554 May 148pp 28.7 x 17.0cm 76 illustrations

The Museum of Modern Art

Ibrahim El-Salahi (b 1930) is one of the most important figures of African and Arabic modernism. While serving as Sudan’s Undersecretary of Culture in 1975, El-Salahi was imprisoned without trial and endured six months of deprivation in the notorious Cooper (now Kober) Prison. He exorcised his experience in the Prison Notebook, arguably the landmark work in the artist’s oeuvre. Both a major historical document and a masterpiece of drawing, it is filled with pen-and-ink drawings of cramped and shackled figures, faces behind barred doors, self-portraits, prison architecture, birds and mythological figures that suggest the hope of freedom or escape. This bilingual English-Arabic volume comprises a facsimile of the Prison Notebook; an English translation of the prose that appears in the diary; a contextualizing essay by Salah Hassan; and contemporary commentary by the artist about his images and verse. Ibrahim El-Salahi is an artist, writer, cultural diplomat and Sudanese TV star. Salah Hassan is professor of African and African Diaspora Art History and Visual Culture in Africana Studies at Cornell University.

Mystical Symbolism The Salon de la Rose+Croix in Paris, 1892–1897 Edited by Vivien Greene Mystical Symbolism accompanies the first-ever museum presentation examining the Salon de la Rose+Croix (R+C), a series of annual exhibitions established by eccentric French author and Rosicrucian Joséphin Péladan. The R+C convened an international group of Symbolist artists around a shared refutation of Realist aesthetics and philosophy, frequently in favour of the Ideal. Among the participants were Pierre Amédée Marcel-Béronneau, Jean Delville, Fernand Khnopff, Charles Maurin, Armand Point, Alexandre Séon and Félix Vallotton. Bound in red velvet with gold stamped lettering to conjure the sensorially evocative atmosphere of the Salons, the catalogue features essays about the history, themes and often transcendent aims of the R+C, its reception by the press and the public in the 1890s, and the importance of spiritualism to early 20th-century abstraction. This richly illustrated volume also contains entries on each exhibited artist, and a bibliography of contemporary sources. Vivien Greene is Senior Curator, 19th- and Early 20th-Century Art, at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York.

Published to accompany the most comprehensive museum presentation to date of the Danish artist’s work, this catalogue presents for the first time an illuminating overview of Danh Vo’s work from the past fifteen years. Organized around nearly thirty major projects and installations, the volume ranges from Vo’s early performative works such as Vo Rosasco Rasmussen (2003) to his recent sculptural hybrids of classical and Christian statuary. A lead essay by Katherine Brinson probes the artist’s roving, research-based process in which historical study, fortuitous encounters and personal relationships are woven into psychologically potent tableaux. Significant recurring subjects include the legacy of colonialism and the fraught status of the refugee, as well as the image of the United States in its own imagination and in that of the world.

Giacometti Edited by Karole P. B. Vail and Megan Fontanella This comprehensive survey of the work of the Swiss-born modern master Alberto Giacometti offers a fresh and incisive account of his entire creative output. Published on the occasion of Giacometti’s first major museum presentation in the U.S. in over a decade, this volume brings together nearly 200 sculptures, paintings and drawings to trace the artist’s wide-ranging and hugely innovative engagement with the human form across various mediums. It explores his lesser-known engagement with Cubism and Surrealism as well as African, Oceanic and Cycladic art, while also highlighting his remarkable talents as a draftsman and painter alongside his sculptural oeuvre. Of particular focus is Giacometti’s studio practice, which is examined through rarely seen plaster sculptures that highlight the artist’s working process, in addition to ephemera and historical photographs documenting his relationship with the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum – which hosted the artist’s first U.S. exhibition, in 1955 – and with New York City. Karole P. B. Vail is Director of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Venice. Megan Fontanella is Curator, Modern Art and Provenance, at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York.

Chagall The Breakthrough Years 1911–1919 Edited by Josef Helfenstein

£38.00 hardback ISBN 978 3 960 982326 January 294pp 27.5 x 22.3cm 237 illustrations

Walther König

Chagall’s creative breakthrough came at a time when his life was torn between contrasting experiences. Chagall lived in Paris from 1911 until 1914, creating paintings that combined his recollections of Russian provincial life with iconic fragments of the people and metropolis around him. Overtaken by the outbreak of World War I during a visit back home, Chagall was forced to spend the next eight years in Russia. The unexpected change of circumstances initially prompted a phase of self-scrutiny that speaks from many paintings and works on paper created in and after 1914. The artist produced numerous self-portraits, depictions of Jewish life, and designs for the stage setting for the celebration of the first anniversary of the October Revolution 1918. This catalogue contains a representative selection of works from what was for Chagall a period of rapid artistic evolution and personal as well as political upheaval. Josef Helfenstein is a curator at the Kunstmuseum, Basel.

Rene Magritte: The Fifth Season Edited with text by Caitlin Haskell • Text by Michel Draguet, Clare Elliott, Katrina Rush, Abigail Solomon-Godeau, Sandra Zalman This book, the first to look exclusively at René Magritte’s late career, examines his most important bodies of work from the 1940s to the 1960s, and shows how they marked a fundamental shift in painting from Modernism to our own time. Featuring more than sixty artworks, René Magritte: The Fifth Season explores how Magritte balanced irony and conviction, philosophy and fantasy, to illuminate the gaps between what we see and what we know. Subjects explored in this volume include the artist’s Renoir period; the période vache, with its Fauvist- and Expressionist-style paintings that are little known to American audiences; the ‘hypertrophy of objects’ paintings, a series that plays with the scale of familiar objects; and the enigmatic Dominion of Light suite, paintings that suggest the simultaneous experience of day and night. Together, the works reveal Magritte as an artist acutely attuned to the paradoxes at work within reality, and an enduring champion of the role of mystery in life and art.

Victor Hugo The Dark Romanticist Edited by Hans-Peter Wipplinger

£30.00 hardback ISBN 978 3 960 982197 January 160pp 28.0 x 25.3cm 95 illustrations

Walther König

Victor Hugo (1802–1885), a figurehead of French Romanticism and homo politicus par excellence, became an institution in his own lifetime. The emotional power inherent in his seminal novels The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Les Misérables captivate to this day. For decades, this visionary writer also pursued a passion for painting. His depictions of whimsical characters living on the fringes of society pay tribute to Francisco de Goya, while his magical and sombre renderings of cathedrals and palaces conjure up the spirits of the past whose precious relics he believed to be endangered. Published to accompany the comprehensive exhibition at the Graphic Cabinet, this book includes some eighty works on paper by Victor Hugo, juxtaposed with works by his pre-modern predecessors such as Alexander Cozens and William Turner. Hans-Peter Wipplinger is Director of the Leopold Museum, Vienna.

Ferdinand Hodler Elective Affinities from Klimt to Schiele Edited by Hans-Peter Wippplinger

£38.00 hardback ISBN 978 3 960 982203 January 336pp 28.5 x 24.0cm 320 illustrations

Walther König

This book is the catalogue of the exhibition at the Leopold Museum, the most comprehensive retrospective of works by Ferdinand Hodler (1853–1918) in Austria since the artist’s success at the 1904 Secession exhibition. An exponent of Symbolism and Jugendstil, a pioneer of Expressionism, and not least an innovator of monumental painting, Hodler was an important inspiration to numerous artists of Viennese Modernism, such as Gustav Klimt and Koloman Moser, as well as Oskar Kokoschka and Egon Schiele. The book focuses on the three main themes of Hodler’s art: landscapes from plein air painting to abstraction, portraits with an emphasis on female depictions, self-portraits, the haunting series of works accompanying the death of his lover Valentine Godé-Darel, as well as his eminent Symbolist figural compositions.

Bruce Nauman: Disappearing Acts Edited by Kathy Halbreich with Isabel Friedli Bruce Nauman is widely acknowledged as a central figure in contemporary art and as one of the most influential artists of his time. This richly illustrated catalogue offers a comprehensive view of Nauman’s career, spanning more than fifty years of work in all media, from his early fibreglass sculptures and drawings to his most recent video and sound pieces. A wide range of authors address such series and themes as Nauman’s interest in architectural models or the role of colour in his work, and an introductory essay explores how Nauman questions what it means to be an artist through acts of disappearance, withdrawal and deflection. Seventeen shorter essays focus on particular ideas, images, or mediums, and include the first essay on Nauman as a photographer in the 1960s and beyond, and the first detailed treatment on the role of color in his oeuvre. An illustrated exhibition history featuring a number of rare or previously unpublished images rounds out the volume.

Bruce Nauman: A Contemporary Reader Edited by Eva Ehninger Bruce Nauman: A Contemporary Reader presents the artist (born 1941) as contemporary in a double sense. First, the works of Nauman’s over-fiftyyear career are placed in the context of contemporary positions and discourses. Second, the book analyses the extent to which Nauman’s themes, media and forms have forged connections to the present, remaining of enduring importance for artists of subsequent generations. Nauman’s early works were originally discussed in relation to contemporary practices and discourses, such as minimal music, postmodern dance, conceptual art, Gestalt therapy or the philosophy of language. But soon Nauman’s reputation came to precede him, and his more recent work has largely been appraised independently of any artistic, social, historical or theoretical context. Bruce Nauman: A Contemporary Reader redresses this imbalance by focusing on thematic concerns shared by Nauman and his contemporaries. Scholarly essays explore how Nauman and his works enter contemporary conversations on the relationship of art and work, art and globalization, and corporeality in the digital age.

Over the past thirty years, Pipilotti Rist (b.1962) has achieved international acclaim as one of the pioneers of video art and multimedia installation. Incorporating video and sculpture, her dazzling environments immerse viewers in imaginary landscapes of kaleidoscopic colour, light and music. This book accompanies the exhibition Pipilotti Rist: Sip my Ocean, which presents the spectrum of Ristâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s groundbreaking practice, from her early single-channel videos of the 1980s to her large-scale audio-visual installations and recent immersive environments. Her work is inspired by the natural world, the home and the body, and also references the history of video and television, with her early videos presented on monitors and her later works projected across ceilings, floors and walls. Her work reflects the symbiotic relationship between technology and biology, presenting both as an intrinsic part of human experience.

Mikala Dwyer A Shape of Thought Edited by Wayne Tunnicliffe Mikala Dwyer, one of Australia’s most inventive artists, creates objects and installations that are both playful and provocative, re-imagining familiar materials and what they say to us about the world in which we live. Mikala Dwyer: A Shape of Thought looks at Dwyer’s work over the past three decades documenting the evolution of her practice and her influences. Her work is characterized by a playful accumulation of elements – she has created installations out of fabric, play dough, stockings, felt, vinyl, plastic, organza and nail varnish. Dwyer’s highly engaging sculptures explore ideas about shelter, childhood play, modernist design and the relationship between people and objects. Often beguiling in their colour and profusion, her works incorporate raw materials and found objects in inventive and unexpected ways that transform their architectural settings. Wayne Tunnicliffe is head curator of Australian art at the Art Gallery of New South Wales and curator of the Mikala Dwyer exhibition.

The Image Revisited Luc Tuymans in Conversation with Hans De Wolf, T.J. Clark and Gottfried Böhm Luc Tuymans, Hans Maria De Wolf, T.J. Clark and Gottfried Böhm A nineteen-year-old Luc Tuymans first saw the work of El Greco in the Szépmvészeti Múzeum in Budapest, an event that prompted him to embark on a journey that would lead him to be one of today’s most influential artists. Almost forty years later, that life-changing experience is recounted and celebrated here, in a book that acts both as a monograph and a history of art. Timed to coincide with an exhibition organized by Tuymans at MuHKA, Antwerp, in June 2018, it includes three conversations Tuymans had with art historians Hans Maria De Wolf, Gottfried Böhm and T.J. Clark over the course of three years. What emerges, along with a fascinating discussion on the work of artists such as El Greco, Cézanne, Goya, de la Tour, Titian, Courbet, Mantegna, Hopper, Newman and Richter amongst others, is an insight into Tuymans’ own creative process, and how the great art of the past inspired and motivated him. Luc Tuymans is one of today’s most influential painters. Hans Maria De Wolf, T.J. Clark and Gottfried Böhm are all distinguished art historians.

The Quay Brothers The Black Drawings Edwin Carels, Michaël Borremans and Tommy Simoens In the mid-1970s the influential stop-motion animators, Stephen and Timothy Quay, embarked on a series of dark graphite drawings, conceived as imaginary film posters. They kept their first autonomous art project hidden for decades, allowing only a few glimpses to transpire in some of their animation classics such as Nuctura Artificialia, Street of Crocodiles and their live-project Witold Lutoslawski – Paraphrase on: The Hour We Knew Nothing of Each Other. In hindsight, the Black Drawings can be considered as a blueprint for their future work. This book offers a first in depth exploration of this important graphic series that reveals many of the themes and techniques that would come to life in their celebrated animation films. Edwin Carels is a teacher and researcher at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts KASK, Ghent. Michaël Borremans is one of Belgium’s most influential painters. Tommy Simoens is the director of the Tommy Simoens Gallery in Antwerp.

ÂŁ22.50 hardback ISBN 978 1 908 970336 February 160pp 23.0 x 18.0cm 87 illustrations

Art / Books

Paul Winstanley has established an international reputation for his atmospheric photorealistic paintings of empty non-descript places and anonymous figures. Now he turns to the medium of writing to translate his experience of painting into words. Taking fifty-nine of his own works as a starting-point, he presents a series of episodes that reveal what it means to conceive, make and think about paintings as an artist. Among the subjects he considers are how a painter finds inspiration in life and the world; the relationship between observed and depicted realities; what constitutes â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;truthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in a painting; how to approach conceptual and technical challenges; the role of the viewer in the transaction at the heart of painting; and the belief systems that lie behind the business of creating and looking at paintings. The result is an exquisite personal account of the art and craft of making painted images today. Paul Winstanley has shown regularly in Europe and the United States, and his works are included in collections all over the world, including Tate Modern, MoMA New York and the Irish Museum of Modern Art.

Art / Books

Aubrey Beardsley (1872–98) was a leading figure of the Aesthetic Movement and the most controversial artist of the 1890s. His delicate yet bold drawings in black ink of grotesque, sensual and erotic subjects transformed the art of illustration but also scandalized Victorian society with their dark and often perverse imagery. Prolific until his death at the age of twenty-five from tuberculosis, he produced an enormous body of work that symbolized the decadence of the period and had a substantial and lasting effect on the Art Nouveau and poster movements. Published twenty years after he died, The Art of Aubrey Beardsley presented some sixty of his most significant works in an intimate pocket volume. With a memoir and critical appreciation by Arthur Symons written upon the artist’s death, the book soon became the definitive word on the provocative artist’s seductive art. This centenary facsimile edition faithfully reproduces the pages of the original 1918 volume while presenting them in a high-quality clothbound format that will appeal to a contemporary audience. Arthur Symons (1865–1945) was a British poet, critic and magazine editor and one of the key exponents of Symbolism in Britain.

Erté Romain de Tirtoff (1892–1990) Brian Sewell, Morgan Falconer, Mikhail Dedinkin, Michael Estorick and Barbra Streisand Romain de Tirtoff (1892–1990) – Erté – was one of the most sought-after artists of the twentieth century. His illustrations for Harper’s Bazaar and Vogue remain classics of the genre, while his work as stage and fashion designer combined an eye for fashion and elegance with a sense of theatricality. In the early days Erté worked closely with the couturier Paul Poiret, before producing numerous designs for revues and shows, as well as for film with his work for MGM. Mata Hari, Lillian Gish, Anna Pavlova and George Balanchine were just some of those whose costumes were designed by Erté. A Russian language edition of this book accompanied an exhibition at the Hermitage Museum, and is now published in English to coincide with a show at the Grosvenor Gallery, London. Mikhail Dedinkin is Deputy Head of the Department of Western-European Art at the Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg. Michael Estorick is Chairman of the Estorick Collection of Modern Italian Art in London. Morgan Falconer is a journalist and critic. Brian Sewell (1931–2015) was a renowned art critic. Barbra Streisand is an actress, singer, director, writer and producer.

New York City Transit Authority: Objects Brian Kelley In 2011, New York photographer Brian Kelley began documenting collections of used MetroCards in his Brooklyn studio. Having exhausted his search of discarded MetroCards in many of the city’s 472 subway stations, Kelley turned to eBay for new finds. The online rabbit-hole gave him a crash course in the history of New York City’s transportation. He discovered tokens dating back to 1860, a ticket stub from 1885, as well as patches, matchbooks, tokens, timetables, pins and signs. New York City Transit Authority: Objects is a story of New York told through the evolving design that spans decades of the city’s history. For him, The NYCTA Project remains a photography experiment and self-funded hobby, archiving the culture of his home city. For the reader, it’s an intimate view of the city’s history that merges design and infrastructure over the past 150 years.

Environmental Protection Agency Graphic Standards System Standards Manual, Chermayeff & Geismar Associates Steff Geissbühler In 1970, President Nixon created the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). One of the EPA’s top priorities was consolidating numerous state offices to streamline its goal of ‘working for a cleaner, healthier environment for the American people.’ But there was one area in which the EPA was terribly inefficient: their graphic design and communications department. Millions of dollars were being wasted annually due to nonstandardized formats, inefficient processes and almost everything being designed from scratch. In 1977 the EPA began working with the legendary New York design firm Chermayeff & Geismar to tackle this problem. The result was the 1977 US Environmental Protection Agency Graphic Standards System. Forty years since it was originally created, this classic manual is reissued as a hardcover volume. Each page is reproduced at the same size as the original three-ring binder pages, using the same vibrant Pantone inks with a total of fourteen colours.

Bruther is a French architectural studio. Stéphanie Bru and Alexandre Theriot opened their Paris-based office in 2007, at the very beginning of what capitalists call a ‘crisis’ and Marxists might define as new round of ‘primitive accumulation and dispossession’. Bruther stands for a specific architecture, adapted to the needs of each project in order to offer maximal living conditions. Adaptability and evolutivity of the building are fundamentals in the office practice. Since 2007, Bruther have developed national and international projects such as the Cultural and Sport Center Saint-Blaise (2014), Helsinki Central Library (2013) and New Generation Research Center (2015). This issue of 2G offers insight into their multifaceted work. Moisés Puente writes widely on architecture.

Editions Didier Millet

Surrounded by the English Channel to the north, the Celtic Sea and the Atlantic Ocean to the west and the Bay of Biscay to the south, Brittany is a picturesque region of France renowned for its beautiful coastline and stunning architecture. Brittany is steeped in history and legends. It is closely connected to the tales of King Arthur, in fact Merlin’s tomb is said to be in a dolmen located somewhere in the region. Granite rules the area; churches, manors and farms are often built with this material, sometimes carved as intricately as lace. The Pink Granite Coast is famous for its blush coloured rock and sand. Fabrice Moireau roamed across this land from the Pointe du Raz to the Landes de Lanvaux and from the Morbihan to the Mont SaintMichel Bay, to discover the most stunning and intriguing landscapes and buildings of Brittany, all of which he captured with his brushes and pens. Fabrice Moireau has illustrated many books, including New York Sketchbook, Paris Sketchbook and Rome Sketchbook, all published by Editions Didier Millet. Yann Queffélec won the Prix Goncourt in 1985 for his novel The Wedding.

Museum of Fine Arts, Boston

The Early Years Karen E. Haas and Margaret Wessling This is a book about Edward Weston before he was Edward Weston – before he was the renowned modernist photographer we know so well. Introducing rare surviving prints from the unplumbed holdings of the Lane Collection at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, it offers new insights into Weston’s working methods and his evolution as a photographer. By taking a longer and more nuanced view of his early years, and by reinserting his first experiments back into the larger story of his artistic production, it reveals the variety of ways in which the paths he took as a young man led him to become the mature modernist master. Beautifully reproduced examples of Weston’s most important early work, essays explaining their place in his oeuvre, and a section dedicated to the variety of Weston’s early materials and techniques make this book a must-have resource. Karen E. Haas is Lane Curator of Photographs, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Margaret Wessling is Claire W. and Richard P.

Andy Warhol’s The Chelsea Girls had its premiere at the Film-Maker’s Cinémathèque on 15 September 1966. It sold out a 200-seat theatre and went on to become the first film to move from the underground to commercial cinema. This book is an in-depth look at Warhol’s most famous film. It includes all newly digitized film stills, never-before-published transcripts, unpublished archival materials and expanded information about each of the individual films that comprise the three-plus hour film. As the film alternates sound between the left and right screens, the book reproduces the transcript in complete form as one hears it, with imagery from the corresponding reels. There is also a full transcription of the unheard reels in the back of the book. This is a substantial contribution to the scholarship on Warhol’s complex and most commercial film. Geralyn Huxley is curator of film and video at The Andy Warhol Museum, where Greg Pierce is associate curator of film and video. Gus Van Sant is best known for directing Good Will Hunting, which won two Academy Awards. Rajendra Roy is the Celeste Bartos Chief Curator of Film at MoMA.

We tend to forget that most of life takes place up close, where we cross each other’s paths. When we frame that energy, we can marvel at its beauty. This is Los Angeles. This book is a map of my whims. It’s a diary, in memory of all the days I trotted half in love down the street. It’s how I see colours and how I hold faces up to be worshipped. It’s my love letter to this grand city and its people. It’s also a love letter to my childhood and all the ways it shaped my aesthetic. This is how I formulate my daily geography, the very things that prop me up and keep me afloat. This book is for you. I want you to have it.

Those were the stories I had heard about this small, unknown country sandwiched between Romania and the Ukraine … Moldova has changed fundamentally since 2005, and so have I and the people I have met … I want to know more, I want to enter the country, meet people and learn their stories. A story I share, even though it’s not mine. We share the same dreams, the same hopes for the future; it’s just the conditions that separate us.’ Åsa Sjöström is a documentary photographer based in Malmö.

Hallelujah Toscana Marco Paoli ‘On this journey I sought the contrasts and contradictions that characterize Tuscan beauty, going beyond classic iconography. I unveiled hidden splendours, but also walked into places of darkness, abandonment and neglect far from the romanticizing eyes of most people. Glorious pasts, buried and forgotten. Ruins, remains, magnificent buildings that have been abandoned and left to their own devices, places where all trace of humanity has vanished, and nature creeps in and prevails’ Marco Paoli Marco Paoli’s evocative black and white photographs are accompanied by verse from the celebrated poet Alba Donati, and an essay by Pulitzer Prize-winner Michael Cunningham. Marco Paoli was born in Tuscany in 1959. Among his works are the Busajo project in Soddo, Ethiopia, and the books Ballads, Silence and Ethiopia.

Appleby’s Horse Fair takes place every year in early June, when up to 15,000 gypsies and travellers gather to buy and sell horses, meet with friends and relations, and celebrate their culture. It is held outside the town, along the river Eden, near Gallows Hill. For three summers, the Irish Travellers became the subjects of Mattia Zoppellaro’s work, who carried out an almost anthropological research that revolves around this important fair in Cumbria. The author’s camera focuses on the faces, the contradictions, the spirit of belonging and the traditions of Irish Travellers to investigate what Zoppellaro calls ‘the tension that is created between the individual and the group at a time when the former strives to join the second.’ Mattia Zoppellaro’s work has been published in Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, Sunday Times Magazine and The Financial Times Weekend, among others.

Rineke Dijkstra The Louisiana Book Edited by Michael Juul Holm • Essays by Poul Erik Tøjner and Thomas Weski • Texts by Hans den Hartog Jager Rineke Dijkstra is one of the most internationally acclaimed artists working within the genre of photography and video portraiture. Her large-scale photographs show a rare sense of humanity, empathy and intimacy without any trace of sentimentality or indiscretion. Dijkstra typically captures her subjects at moments of transition or vulnerability, thus focusing on the thematics of identity. Though absolutely modern, even timeless, her portraiture brings to mind the great masters of the Golden Age of Dutch art. ‘I try to capture something of the personality of these people,’ Rineke Dijkstra explains, ‘but at the same time extract something universal relating to humanity in general.’ This collection accompanies ‘Rineke Dijkstra: the one and the many’ at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Denmark.

David Lynch: Nudes David Lynch Ten years after the exhibition ‘The Air Is on Fire’, which unveiled David Lynch’s photographic and painting work, the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain presents more than 120 black-and-white and colour images of female nudes by the artist. These erotically charged photographs are close to abstraction, offering kaleidoscopic visions of woman. They attest to David Lynch’s fascination with the infinite variety of the human body, while being in line with his cinematographic work.
