Now will not be with us forever

Published by: RVB Books

348 pages in total 15 x 21cm 8 booklets in a slipcase, soft covers 2015

£50.00

Maurice van Es is a plastic artist exploring the photographic medium. In the eight books gathered under the title, Now will not be with us forever, he deals with photography’s intrinsic dimension: seizing a moment that will never return. He focuses on his close environment, family and familiar, transcending it subtly: his young brother departing to school every morning, his grandfather putting on a pullover, the details of an interior (carpet, blanket), motifs on a garment or again his father’s car as he waits for him at the station, take on a troubling poetic and plastic dimension.

Softness is a way to think in the 21st century. In art, economics, politics, and technology, an attitude of softness is regenerating bodily relations as a way to renegotiate the hardness of the old world. Think soft power, soft management, soft skills or soft ownership: softness embodies alternative ways for re-investigating and complicating hard notions about how emotions, bodily knowledge, openness and uncertainty define how we navigate contemporary life – Issue 3 of Auckland-based magazine Le Roy isThe Soft Issue. Published by DDMMYY (Auckland) and edited by Kelvin Soh and featuring contributions by Adrian Mesko, Andrei Blidarean, Angharad Williams, Arron Santry, Bas Van Est, Bruce E.

Poetry. Fiction. EVEN THOUGH I DON'T MISS YOU captures the essence of being part of a species that is prone to spending nights alone looking up photos of Heath Ledger's daughter and contemplating making pasta. Its seemingly arbitrary obsession with human evolution and many allusions to self-contempt make this book not only timeless and deeply moving, but one of those rare books to which you will develop a sickening dependence.

The Avian Gospels

Published by: Short Flight / Lond Ride

£14.00

A city without a name is cursed by a plague of birds they probably deserve. But when an angry beggar child and his father learn they have the power to lift the curse—they “control” birds—they cannot agree on how to use their gift, and end up using it on each other, taking out everyone around them, especially those they love. The Avian Gospels was originally published as two volumes, Old and New Testament style. The books have now (June 2013) been recombined back into a single volume, and is handsomely printed with rounded corners, gilded edges, a ribbon bookmark, and Bible-style line numbering.

Elizabeth Ellen
Fast Machine

Published by: Short Flight / Lond Ride

380 pages 17.7 x 10.7cm softcover 2013

£8.00

Dan Wickett once described a Mary Miller story as "a slightly less gritty Elizabeth Ellen story." We're not sure what that means, but it sounds kind of cool. We like the word gritty. And we're obviously huge fans of Mary Miller and her stories. And grit. The stories in Fast Machine come in three sizes: flash, regular, and too-long-for-journal-publication. Some were previously published. Some are brand-spanking new. One is called "Period Sex," for Barry Graham/Kendra Grant Malone. There are slightly more than four hundred pages. There are no acknowledgements (i.e. no three-page thank you to everyone she met at every writers' colony). Zero epigraphs. There are repeated themes: driving, smoking, teenagers, drinking, escape, the Midwest, masturbation, self-loathing and blood. We hope some of you will like it. It's okay to hate it though, too.

Christian Lagata
Up Around The Bend

Published by:

Softcover Thread-sewn with dust cover 16.5 x 22 cm 84 pages

£20.00

In 1953 The United States and Spain signed an agreement of mutual defense and economic aid and they decided to build an Aero-naval Base in the municipality of Rota in Cádiz. Of the 8.000 acres that constitute the town, about 2.400 belong to the Base, and so the constant presence of a fence is drawn into the landscape of this small community: although it constitutes a physical barrier between the communities, it also lets the culture and traditions of the north Americans seep through its gaps. In the 70s Christian’s family moved to Rota and he was raised between these cultural and social influences. In 2011 the author begins to observe and to look around in an effort to try to make sense out of his life and his roots. He decides to portray the people that are a part of his reality, the places that are a part of his memories and those signals that slowly help him solve the numerous questions he has on identity and memory: this is what gives life to his project.

Philippe Weisbecker
Structure Series

Published by: Nieves

8 Sheets 16 Drawings 39 x 29.7 cm Color Offset 2015

£12.00

Following Greenhouse Studies, Philippe Weisbecker's attention was drawn to other architectural structures, the ones visible on the outer walls of early 20th century industrial buildings. They are made of steel or concrete beams assembled together and holding an apparatus of bricks and mortar. Even though these structures may appear very similar for their overall shape, they differ greatly in order to ensure the weight distribution necessary to the stability of the edifice. The present portfolio is a sampler of some various structural beam combinations. It can be viewed as a book, spread by spread, or pinned on the wall, according to taste, the way a kid might stack up building blocks. Born in 1942, Weisbecker studied interior design in Paris. By 1968 he moved to New York. First working as a draftsman in an architectural firm, he started a career as an illustrator at the age of 30. His work has been published in major american publications such as the New York Times, Time magazine and The New Yorker among others. In the late 90's he shifted gradually from commissioned work to his own original production which he is now showing in galeries worldwide. Moving back to France in 2006, he is now sharing his time between Paris and Barcelona.

Jim Mangan
BEDU

Published by: Pogobooks

60 Pages 20 x 28 cm Surbalin Hardcover 2015

£28.00

BEDU completes Jim Mangan's trilogy on the subject of rebirth, which includes the series Winter's Children and Color'd. Photographing models running completely and utterly naked (this is a consistent theme throughout the series) through the sands of the Sahara Desert, his dreamy photographs capture the very essence of inhibition, nature and freedom. Being Jim's debuting project as a photographer (before he worked in the snowboarding industry before boldly quitting to pursue his life long ambition to be a photographer) Bedu demonstrates a clear step away from the colour dominated images of both Winter's Children and Color'd and thus his progression and potential as a photographer. BEDU was shot in the Little Sahara Desert, Utah with the following models: Celine Boucher, Spencer David, Chris Van Dine, Alex Graves, Jenny Hong, Vlada Kleynburg, Corigan Kushma, and Peter Sutherland.
