Building Books 2022 ISBN 9782492680014 Acqn 32220
Pb 23x30cm 136pp col ills £32.75

For almost two decades, Stephan Zaubitzer has travelled the world in search of cinemas, both
operative and inoperative, to capture them with a large-format camera. 'Cines Mediterranee'
presents a photographic journey through five countries on the southern coast of the
Mediterranean sea - Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, and Lebanon - each of which holds an
exceptional architectural heritage. From the pristine to the dilapidated and even ruined, this
extensive collection of images features numerous examples of classic 20th-century cinema
architecture, design, and ornamentation. It also includes cartographic documentation and a
preface by French film critic Alain Bergala.

Private Views - A High Rise Panorama Of Manhattan (Reprint)

Galerie Vi Per 2021 ISBN 9788027091256 Acqn 32250
Hb 23x31cm 288pp col ills £63.50

Many want to see Manhattan from above, but very few can do it from their own living room. Andi
Schmied's 'Private Views' will satisfy that incessant curiosity about an elite, hidden world we can
only observe from the outside. Posing as an apartment-hunting Hungarian billionaire named
Gabriella, she accessed and documented Manhattan's most exclusive high-rise properties, from
Trump World Tower and One Madison to the Ritz-Carlton Central Park and the Woolworth
Building. The book showcases the surreal strategies of persuasion used by real estate agents,
features samples of the world's most luxurious materials, and is complemented by essays from
twelve authors.

Annegien van Doorn – Biophilia

Annegien van Doorn 2022 ISBN 9789090355238 Acqn 32252
Hb 17x23cm 116pp col ills £36.50

From fluorescent flamingos to golden pineapples, from giraffes on the wall to fish-like pens in the
aquarium, we humans seem to surround ourselves with all kinds of "design" objects that remind
us of nature. But do these things bring us closer to nature or make that distance greater? This
phenomenon inspired Dutch visual artist Annegien van Doorn to create 'Biophilia', a photobook
full of strange and artificial encounters with nature, but also its personification. Through her wry
reflection on the absurdity of the world we create, she hopes to encourage a revaluation of actual
nature. Do flowers compare colours? Do fish want to be kissed? Van Doorn thinks perhaps they
just might…

Stephane Ruchaud - Skatepark Continua

Rue Du Bouquet 2021 ISBN 9791097416218 Acqn 32259
Hb 24x32cm 72pp col ills £33.75

As part of its initiative to transform an old industrial mill into a contemporary art spot for Galleria
Continua in France, MBL Architectes teamed up with Bureau David Apheceix and Camille
Frechou to construct a skatepark in an area of structural remnants, horticultural plants, and wild
endemic species. They drew inspiration from the fluidity of 1970s skateparks designed around the
premise of non-standard architecture, mingling existing greenery with the curvaceous lines of raw
concrete. Integrated into its surroundings, the project becomes a vital part of the former industrial
landscape and is conceived as a continuous strip that connects various features on an undulating
foundation.

Julie Joubert – Mido

Kahl Editions 2022 ISBN 9780995761193 Acqn 32261
Hb 22x27cm 104pp col ills £50.50

French photographer Julie Joubert embraces social themes to highlight those who are continually
side-lined. In applying her almost documentary style, she invites the viewer to change their
perception of these individuals through the sublimation of their faces and bodies. She maintains a
certain distance, yet also attempts to highlight the authenticity of her subjects. In 'MIDO',
Joubert's first book, she follows Ahmed in his daily life. After meeting him at a social reintegration
centre for young people, she realised how he wants to hide as much as he wants to be noticed.
Her photographic portrait reveals her subject's fragility, self-destructive nature, even his ability to
reveal himself.

Patrick Wack – Dust

Andre Frere Editions 2021 ISBN 9782492696022 Acqn 32008
Hb 24x32cm 176pp col ills £52

Situated in Central Asia, Xinjiang is an autonomous region of the People's Republic of China
traditionally inhabited primarily by Uyghurs, in addition to significant populations of Kazakh,
Kyrgyz, Mongolian and other minorities. Patrick Wack traversed this massive territory, three times
the size of France, with camera in hand to gain a sense of its history, people, and current state of
unrest due to China's crackdown on its Muslim population. Islamophobia in China has flared in
recent years due to reports of radicalised Uyghur volunteers fighting for ISIS in Syria and
elsewhere. Wack counters this with a riveting account of his experiences in a place where the
dust is omnipresent.

In the Shadow of Trees

Hangar Art Center 2022 ISBN 9782960251944 Acqn 32283
Pb 23x29cm 164pp col ills £41

The images gathered here create a canopy that is rich in meaning and which contributes to a
debate about the separation between artistic savoir faire and the scientific understanding of
nature and its spiritual, cultural, and political implications. The tree is a powerful subject in this
respect, raising questions about the purpose of our civilisation and its relationship with nature.
After all, the tree needs our unconditional protection as a key element in a balanced biodiversity.
Organised as part of the PhotoBrussels Festival 06, this catalogue appears with the 2022 group
exhibition 'In the Shadow of Trees', featuring seventeen photographers and the three festival
prize-winners.

Tine Bek - The Vulgarity of Being Three-Dimensional

Disko Bay 2022 ISBN 9788797052099 Acqn 32285
Pb 22x29cm 184pp col ills £42.25

In her first monograph Danish photographic artist Tine Bek tries to escape strict hierarchical
structures through a series of aesthetic experiments. The book presents images of shapes that
run over, flow, crumble and bulge out. An excess of uncontrolled forms that in the sculptural
tradition have been dismissed as vulgar or possibly baroque. The book is a mix of still life, other
found forms and created sculptural forms photographed. Fruit, material, fabric and figures are
brought together and changed by subtle shades of colour.

The City is Ours #1 - Discarded Gums

Other Editions 2022 ISBN 9789526878447 Acqn 32287
Pb 15x22cm 72pp col ills £22.50

The first edition in a series of six "bookzines" that invite you to explore your surroundings with a
more curious gaze. Each is dedicated to a single theme relating to a street-level detail, proving
that anything can be more interesting and meaningful than what it seems to be. Unless you live in
Switzerland or Singapore, chewing gum discarded on the ground is a ubiquitous sight. But why
depositing gum on the ground has become acceptable in most places is still unclear. This issue
offers a provocative and fresh perspective on a phenomenon that is too often seen in a negative
light. How many types or colours can be found? Do they form constellations? And what about
ants?

Hb 24x31cm 174pp col ills £48.50

Published in conjunction with an exhibition in Madrid dedicated to the self-taught Spanish

photographer Vari Carames, this book is structured on the basis of three open concepts -
something, nothing, always - allowing a continuous transfer and interconnection between the
images, which in turn expresses the spirit of this artist's work. It presents a selection of his most
iconic images together with a journey through various creative phases, from black-and-white
photography to portraits, still lifes, landscapes, street photography, and more. Although it is not
intended as a formal retrospective, the content nevertheless spans the majority of his output
since the 1980s.

Jon Horvath - This Is Bliss

Fw:Books 2022 ISBN 9781949608281 Acqn 32297
Pb 24x30cm 280pp col ills £47.25

'This Is Bliss' is a transmedia narrative project investigating the vanishing roadside geography
and culture of a rural Idaho town named Bliss. The project considers how mythologies of place
and happiness collide, and are frequently confounded, in a location with a complex narrative of
booms and busts that reflects the complicated history of American Idealism and Manifest Destiny.
All that remains in Bliss is two gas stations, a school, a church, a diner, and two saloons to
service its 300 current residents. Through a thorough look at the contemporary landscape and its
residents, This Is Bliss contrasts romantic visions of the American West with its contemporary
reality and considers how the heights of idealism are envisioned on both a personal and cultural
level.
