The Long Way Home of Ivan Putnik, Truck Driver

The Eriskay Connection 2021 ISBN 9789492051660 Acqn 31502
Pb 12x16cm 144pp col ills £18

This collection of photographs and notes on remote Siberian roads and towns seems to have
been created by a truck driver named Ivan Putnik. In fact, the images were taken by various
amateur photographers who then uploaded them to Google Street View. Fascinated by their
visual diversity, the artistic trio Vaste Programme recontextualised the pictures to create a
fictional story. Apart from offering a rare look at this remote area, the cropped stills represent
universal environmental issues such as pollution, fossil fuel extraction, and the transformation of
the landscape. Rather than amplifying the archetypal image of life in Siberia, the book provides
both classic and unusual insights.

Issei Suda - My Japan

Fw:Books 2021 ISBN 9789490119959 Acqn 31503
Pb 17x21cm 144pp ills £22.50

For Issei Suda (1940-2019), photography was a means to document the ordinary and reveal the
extraordinary. Traditional country festivals were a favourite subject, but he also saw theatre in
Tokyo's street life. Suda had a talent for square format compositions and is known for the
technical perfection of his black-and-white prints as well as for his unique and surrealistic visual
style. 'Issei Suda - My Japan' is an introduction to his life's work, from the 1960s until the
publication of his final book in 2018. It includes rarely seen photographs from his early stage
photographer days for the avant-garde theatre troupe Tenjo Sajiki, and iconic series, such as
Fushi Kaden and Waga Tokyo 100.

548 Days - No Skateboarding By Dela Charles

JB Institute 2021 no ISBN Acqn 31576
Pb 22x29cm 96pp ills £37

Berlin-based photographer Dela Charles Lampacher was bored of studying, so she went on a trip
around Europe, Australia, and the US. Her travels turned into a photo project, which turned into a
book about skateboarding, architecture, and urbanism. A photobook by a female skateboard
photographer is still a rarity these days, and in this one, Lampacher combines her view on
architecture and urban structures with her experience as a skateboarder, through a series of
images collected during the journey over the course of around 548 days. It comes with a poster of
one photo which lists the cities featured, from Amsterdam to Vancouver.

Bernadette Mergaerts – Flisvos

Eriskay Connection 2021 ISBN 9789492051684 Acqn 31578
Pb 21x28cm 128pp col ills £39.50

When visiting the Greek island of Corfu in the winter of 2015, Bernadette Mergaerts noticed that,
in spite of the cold, many people were swimming at various places along the shoreline. All of the
swimmers were adults, some of them elderly. She was impressed by how they seemed to find
peace in the Ionian Sea. In the years following, Mergaerts learned more about the lives of these
winter swimmers. About how they live day to day, and their shared concerns. With sensuous
images, she shows the vitality and decline of nature as well as the bathers. In witnessing their
daily swims, their immersion in the elements, she documents this ritual celebration of the winter
season.

Marina Ballo Charmet - Out Of The Corner Of My Eye

Quodlibet 2021 ISBN 9788822902689 Acqn 31542
Pb 17x24cm 184pp col ills £24.50

Italian photographer Marina Ballo asks us to look at the world "out of the corner of your eye" and
gaze at what is always seen and often out of focus. She delights in capturing objects at the
threshold of perception, and this book is a meditation on her photography as an instrument of
knowledge and as a means of experience that activates the subconscious. Matching images to
words has been the author's imperative necessity over the whole of her artistic path; almost every
page is laced with long-distance exchanges with her favourite authors and photographers, along
with personal thoughts that clarify her theoretical roots.
