Found: The Rolling Stones



Published by: The Ice Plant

64 pages 16 x 20.5 cm Hardcover 2014

£17.00

Found: The Rolling Stones presents a series of snapshots of The Rolling Stones on a 1965 tour through Savannah, Georgia and Clearwater, Florida. Discovered nearly fifty years later in an unmarked box at a flea market in Southern California by musician and art collector Lauren White, these rare candid images of Mick Jagger, Brian Jones, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Bill Wyman and founding member and road manager, Ian Stewart, capture the band — on the brink of global superstardom — relaxed and unguarded. On tour in North America in the spring of 1965, the young band was playing YMCA auditoriums and college gymnasiums in support of their third album, The Rolling Stones, Now!, and still trying to set themselves apart from the scores of other bands emerging out of Britain at the time. An additional handful of snapshots (found in the same box) appear to be from a year or two later, with the band in full rock-star mode... Dilettante gallery in Los Angeles showed the photographs for the first time after their discovery, but despite considerable press attention, the photographer responsible for these remarkable images still has not emerged. Some have speculated that it could be Keith Richards, since he appears in only one of the 23 photographs. White has her own suspicions: “My female intuition says that it was a girl. If you look at the photos, they look very vulnerable … I don’t think that a guy could evoke that kind of expression.” The cache of photographs is a rare discovery and a thrilling piece of rock-and-roll history, but also an intimate, fresh look at five faces that were soon to become iconic.

Nathalie Du Pasquier
A-Z



Published by: Automatic Books

52 pages 14 x 19.5 cm Edition of 250

£20.00

Nathalie Du Pasquier is most often described as a ‘founding member of the Memphis collective’, the radical group of thinkers and makers which changed the landscape of creative practices in the 1980s. Nathalie, however, should be better known for her work as artists, which transforms our three-dimensional environment — made of seemingly unimportant, superfluous objects — into visual poetry. For this book, Nathalie Du Pasquier has applied her subtle and ironic approach to a different kind of poetic visual expression: an illustrated spelling-book in Italian and English, where each letter corresponds to a concept, an idea about language and meaning. Nathalie Du Pasquier “A—Z” was printed in four colors with a Risograph printer and bound with a canvas sew binding, without front and back cover.

Fruits of Yesterday's Harvest



Published by: Shelter Press

24 pages 14 x 20 cm BW Offset Edition of 1000

£9.00

My work consists of fragments reconstructed from memories, dreams and surroundings where past and present no longer work as isolated units. My overall process is my own game of telephone, where I move between different mediums and techniques. Something that started out as a collage on paper might become a sculpture and later a painting from another point of view, constantly changing in the search for the right medium and size for each piece. These changes in material, size and technique always involve a translation in process. During the process the qualities change but also how I think about the piece. It becomes a new character with different qualities and abilities, or sometimes, it’s still the same character but with new features.

In The Canyon, Revise The Canyon



Published by: Shelter Press

208 pages 14 x 21 cm Softcover English Edition

£15.00

Before the onset of the social and cultural backlash that was brought on by the Reagan administration in the early eighties, Southern California was ripe territory for the genesis and development of emancipation movements for and by African Americans, Chicanos, pacifists, Marxists, feminists and homosexuals. Starting in the late sixties, these revolutionary waves particularly influenced practices such as performance art, video, installation and collaboration, which led to the construction of alternatives like artist-run spaces, non-profit spaces and artist-run community art spaces. In Santa Barbara, Los Angeles and San Diego, collaborative public action was constructed around utopian knowledge which was then redirected towards universities and art schools that favored the emergence of radical pedagogies. These other manners of experimental thinking, doing and teaching permitted artists to deconstruct certain canons that were inherited from European tradition and art history, and provoked a reexamination of “the American way of life”. In the Canyon, Revise the Canon.

The images in this publication were generated by a two day performance held in Tokyo. Event participants were asked to select an original print by Takashi Homma. The photographer then cut the print into strips of varying shapes. The fragments were handed to participants, who then freely re-arranged the fragments into new configurations. The completed recompositions were stamped by the photographer and then photographed. A selection of the reconstructed photographs were selected for this volume.

Behind The Blockade



Published by: Zen Foto Gallery

48 pages 18 x 25.5 cm Softcover Edition of 500 2015

£24.00

This exhibition catalogue published by Zen Photo Gallery contains images which documented the student protests at Tokyo University in 1968- 1969. From day to day gatherings, protests, and discussions, the photographs vividly capture life within the University walls where routine and riot was played out behind the backdrop of the international anti-war student protest. “1968 was a year of instability - with the prolonged Vietnam war, student protests in Paris, repression of Czechoslovakia by those countries which were shaken by the “Prague Spring”. America saw the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy. On the other hand, the Apollo mission landed on the moon the following year. 1968 was also the year I began photography. I wandered around downtown Shinjuku with a camera, capturing people and whatever caught my attention. One night, I came across a crowd causing great turmoil in Shinjuku. I learned that it was an international anti-war protest. Before that, the Vietnam War had seemed to me merely information transmitted from the media, but I felt its reality after joining the protest. As the Riot Police searchlight lit up students’ helmets in the heaving crowd, their silhouettes would shiver violently. Student Power in Japan became a powerful tide fighting against society. Around that time, I stepped foot into Tokyo University’s Hongo Campus for the first time, and met Yoshitaka Yamamoto, who was then representative of Todai Zen-kyoto. He inspired me. It was he who made me so determined to document the Todai protests. Inside the barricades actually was an open space, into which non-local students, the general public and even high school students could go. Forty-seven years have now passed since then, and some memories are dimming - but film creates new memory. The spirit of Zen-kyoto is brought back to life.” - Hitomi WATANABE

"I took these photographs for my regular series “Walking with Leica” in “Nippon Camera” during 2005-2013. After reaching the age of 60 I became less inclined to venture far to take photographs. Noticing for the first time my physical decline, I began to see things that I had not been able to see when I was young. I determined to walk the streets and take photographs near where I had lived for the past 30 years. This was my thinking as I started the series for the photography magazine. I did not intend to undertake the long journeys with a camera that I had made in my younger days. On 11th March 2011 I was taking photographs as I always do, when I was shaken by the biggest earthquake I have ever experienced. Shelves of books and crockery were tipped over and windows smashed in my house in Funabashi, Chiba, leaving it in chaos. I switched on the television to learn of a great earthquake off the coast of Miyagi and of a huge tsunami. Affected areas shown on the emergency broadcast included Hachinohe in Aomori, the Sanriku coast of Iwate, Ishinomaki in Miyagi and Minamisoma in Fukushima.  I remembered visiting and photographing villages all along these coastlines on many occasions during the past forty years. The faces of those kind people whom I had photographed there were as if imprinted on my vision. Although I was averse to travelling far, I wanted to see the disaster region with my own eyes, and so I set out again. I was able to recognize some places from previous visits, but many more left me speechless as I gazed at the scenes of desolation. As I walked through these villages where everything had been washed away, including houses and sea walls, there were traces to indicate where once had been a road. People had started to walk again on these traces, reforming a path on top of the original. It was as if the road had a life of its own. I have taken countless photographs on roads that have been trodden by people over many ages. These roads become superimposed on the roads I see in the disaster region, and these also seem overlaid with the road from Anshan along which my family fled as refugees. (Text/Kazuo KITAI)"
