Massimo Grimaldi
Fade In



Published by: Mousse Publishing

128 pages 25 x 20 cm Softcover 2012

£21.00

This is the first comprehensive monograph on the work of Italian artist Massimo Grimaldi. "In the space of just over a decade, Massimo Grimaldi has developed an artistic practice that seems based on an apparent contradiction: producing art as a way of saying that, in the end, art is a trivial matter, and its role in the real world is superfluous. On more than one occasion-above all, through his text based works-Grimaldi has presented an image of art as a self-serving activity that springs from the desire to "be" and is fuelled by the ambition to "endure."

This Place is Called the Hole

£33.00

This catalogue accompanies the exhibition by Cezary Bodzianowski, 'This Place is Called the Hole', the first museum retrospective of the work of one of the most original figures on the contemporary art scene. Bodzianowski has been part of this scene since the mid 1990's; he is known as the author of slight, sometimes hardly perceptible interventions, disturbing the natural course of day to day life and inserting an element of the absurd, anarchising poetry into it. The accompanying publication aims to sum up the artist's creative output to date.

£24.00

Time is a fundamental dimension of the work of Giuseppe Gabellone, and it resonates in all the works shown at the GAMeC in Bergamo. In his photographs and sculptures - the two main media around which Gabellone has developed his language stretching the conventions and possibilities of both - time takes on forms that are not easy to grasp, in spite of the clarity that sets his image apart. It is a time that is simultaneously specific and extraneous; an absolute and present time, but one that goes beyond the contemporary; a time anchored in experience, yet also transcending it.

Yanina Shevchenko
Crossing Over



Published by: The Velvet Cell

24 pages 24 x 16.5 cm Colour Offset Edition of 300 2013

£12.00

In March 2012 Yanina Shevchenko travelled from one end of Russia to the other and back again on the trans-siberian railway in a bid to discover for herself the true nature of her homeland. In the space of two weeks she spent a total of twelve days onboard, mingling with her fellow travellers and watching the Russian landscape unfold itself from her carriage window. Born in Volgograd of Russian-Belorussian descent, Yanina was motivated to unearth what 'Russianess' meant and whether it existed as a single entity from one end of the motherland to the other. What she encountered and discovered about Russia, and thus about herself, is documented in her book of writings and photography 'Crossing Over'. Yanina Shevchenko is a Russian-born photographer. She has worked in New York, Moscow and Buenos Aires and recently graduated from Goldsmiths University of London, MA in Photography and Urban Cultures. Her interests in photography are human identity, personal stories, urban and rural landscape.

Closed for Winter



Published by: The Velvet Cell

16 pages 17.7 x 15.2 cm Edition of 300 2013

£6.00

Southwest Spain is not as big a tourist spot as the nearby Costa del Sol. Over to the West, in the province of Cadiz, summer and tourism had a very different flavour during my childhood and youth years. In the summer, hordes of national holiday makers from nearby provinces would flock to our Atlantic beaches. This would relieve them from having to endure the scorching temperatures typically endured in inland Spain in the months of July and August. My family, friends and I, on the other hand, would just feel lucky to already be in the place where everyone seemed to want to go and would never leave on a summer holiday. During these summer months our city would double or triple its population in a matter of days. Simultaneously our summer friends from Seville and Madrid would visit us in our city and both local and far away friends would gather together to hear the tales from the big city. But however special these long summers were, a bittersweet feeling always lingered. We knew that after this short and intense burst of activity, once September arrived, we would be abruptly returned to the tedious routine of our off-season lives. I have lived away from Cadiz now for over 22 years and although the place has changed beyond recognition and Spanish tourists now look further ashore for exoticism, my memories still perdure. Closed for Winter is partly a testimony to these distant memories of youth.

Teller’s back, at work and at play. Chiara Dazi goes wandering with woodworking travellers, Tatyana Palyga spends a day at the office and Chloe Dewe Mathews ends up in call centre central by mistake. David Gray and Paul Summers investigate labour and its remnants in England’s idea of north and Steven Connor buys a new USB stick. We join Stuart Braun to hang out with the Parkies and hear the stories of Melbourne’s Aboriginal community, and Iphgenia Baal as she waits around for the council. Oliver Harris tells the story of a young soldier whiling away time in rural France on the way to war and Seba Kurtis pieces together fragments of Argentina’s bloody history. Chris Floyd lets us in on golden days with the love of his former life, Nikesh Shukla introduces his gilt-armed best friend and Alexander Massouras tells the moderately cautionary tale of a craftsman with the Midas touch.

APE#029 Tinus Vermeersch



Published by: Art Paper Editions

80 pages 23,5 x 33,5 cm edition of 500

£21.00

Vermeersch’s drawings and paintings are reminiscent of a long tradition of Northern European painting inspired by masters like Breughel and Bosch. Drawing sensitively on dreams, rituals and impressions of life the artist creates meticulously crafted compositions. ”I like seeing my work as fragments and hints of lost epic times and vernacular societies, as parts or details ripped out of a larger context”, the artist says, referring to himself as a archeologist of sorts who is “in search for the story between the few scattered remains I have collected and inventoried”. The viewer is invited to be part of this search and to put together the pieces of their own story for which Tinus Vermeersch provides his finds and fragments.

Blue Heron



Published by: Blast Future Press

93 pages 30 x 23.2 cm  Hardcover Special Edition, Signed & Hand Numbered 2013

£49.00

The images were created by chance encounters, on a dérive, in a land unknown to me. I had yet to discover it first hand, for myself, through my own eyes, my camera, my mind. It is a selective visual document, a photo essay, a dream sequence through Japan. From Tokyo to the edge of the East China Sea, people and vistas, situations and locations both unique and unbeknown to me. The images are a collection of archetypal views, capturing scenes un-affected by in-depth study and to force the unknown quantity of my representation through the momentary split second capture. Throughout, Blue Heron takes on subtle and obvious aspects of duality, harmony, spirituality, philosophy, balance, and opposing forces.

We Make The Path By Walking



Published by:

78 pages 16 x 21 cm Softover with photo-illustrated slip case Edition of 1000 2013 

£20.00

"During 2012 I walked over 3,500 kilometres with the aim of creating a body of work which would explore the idea of long-distance walking as a form of meditation and personal transformation. My intention was to create a series of quiet, meditative images, which would evoke the experience of being immersed in nature and capture the essence of the journey. The images seek to engage the viewer in this walk, and to communicate a sense of the subtle internal and psychological changes which one may undergo while negotiating the landscape."

Issue 20: Family Politics



Published by: Photoworks

220 pages 26 x 21 cm Softcover 2013

£20.00

With Issue 20, Photoworks becomes Photoworks Annual with a new format and a fresh design. Taking the theme Family Politics, the eagerly anticipated issue explores contemporary thinking on the most universal of photographic subjects. Contents include: commissioned work from Jowhara AlSaud and Claudia Sola, folios by Broomberg & Chanarin, David Moore, Dennis Yermoshin and John Clang; conversations between: Marianne Hirsch and Lorie Novak, Wendy Ewald and Anthony Luvera, Bettina von Zwehl and Kelley Wilder and writings from Michael Bonesteel, Susan Bright, Terry Dennett, Geoffrey Batchen, Blake Stimson, Sarah James, Stephanie Schwartz, Jack Halberstam, Aaron Schuman, Blake Morrison, Andrew Kötting, Sue Hubbard and David Campany amongst others. ‘The subject of ‘The Family’ can be both private and public: the site of intimate inter-personal relations and a social construct subject to public and political pressures. This relationship is mirrored in examples of family photography. The majority of family pictures serve essentially private functions, accruing meaning through their relationship to the memories, experiences and histories of individuals. However, the family is also the subject of public photographic representation and contestation, largely through digital media and over sharing. This involves a wide variety of practices, including representations in the mass media, art and advertising.

Erik Kessels & Paul Kooiker
Terribly Small Photo Books



Published by: Art Paper Editions

64 Pages 30 x 37 cm Newsprint Edition of 1000

£11.00

For several years, Paul Kooiker and Erik Kessels have organized evenings for friends in which they share the strangest photo books in their collections. The books shown are rarely available in regular shops, but are picked up in thrift stores and from antiquaries. The group’s fascination for these pictorial non-fiction books comes from the need to find images that exist on the fringe of regular commercial photo books. It’s only in this area that it’s possible to find images with an uncontrived quality. This constant tension makes the books interesting. It’s also worth noting that these tomes all fall within certain categories: the medical, instructional, scientific, sex, humour or propaganda. Paul Kooiker and Erik Kessels have made a selection of their finest books from within this questionable new genre. Incredibly small photobooks is the second volume (after Terribly awesome photobooks) showing this amazing collection.
