On an unparalleled scale, entire towns have been built around making movies. Given film censorship codes in China, period films provide a safe and familiar format to tell stories based around “official” narratives. The movie sets, rivaling real-world cities and monuments in their scale, have themselves become destinations for domestic and international tourists. Despite the fiction, they bear witness to a dynamic and changing China. Mark Parascandola is an award winning photographer based in DC.

BOOK INFO Flexi, 9 X 7 In. / 188 Pages / 90 Color ISBN 9780989798136 List Price: $35.00 "...a raw, sensual and multifarious view of what a female orgasm is and, importantly, what it can be.", - The Huffington Post, September 9, 2014"...a joyful, raw celebration of female pleasure.",- Refinery29, December 11, 2014Photographs by Linda Troeller Compiled by Marion Schneider In this volume, New York-based photographer Linda Troeller (born 1949) collaborates with scholar and artist Marion Schneider to discuss and portray women's feelings upon orgasm through personal narratives and photographs. The project involves 25 women of different ages, nationalities, and cultural and social backgrounds. Schneider posed the following questions to them: "What does the word orgasm mean to you?" "Can you remember your first orgasm and show the feelings to the camera?" "Can you remember your strongest orgasm and show the feelings to the camera?" Troeller's portraits are juxtaposed with interviews with the participants. Boldly and tenderly countering the taboo associated with the topic, this frank and intimate examination of the female orgasm as told through the mouths of these diverse participants serves as a touchstone for women and men everywhere. This book continues the investigation into female sexuality begun by Troeller and Schneider's 1998 volume The Erotic Lives of Women, acclaimed in The New York Times Review of Books as "one of the gutsiest books of the decade."

HargraveContributions byAllison GrantKendra PaitzRebecca SolnitSandra BinionRalph J. Mills Paradise Wavering is a photographic stream of consciousness that travels through a reservoir of memories. Alice Hargrave explores experiences that reflect on the passage of time and seeks the sublime in moments on the periphery of daily life. By interspersing the work she currently makes with re-photographed vintage source material from her family's archive of 8mm films and snapshots, she melds past and present, alluding to an uncertain future, where environmental angst pervades. The resulting curvilinear narrative is fractured, frayed, and stained in color, as are our memories, and photographic substrates themselves.Leading through prairies, mangroves and tropical forests, the photographs are inspired by the heroic landscapes of early travel photography, vernacular family pictures, and the first color processes such as Autochromes. They embrace, but also recontextualize, and reimagine the clichés of documenting family travels where photography's role is to harness exotic flora and fauna or "Kodachrome" moments from a moving car, her liberal and intuitive use of the vivid, visceral colors of recollection eclipses reality, inscribes emotion, and reveals how photographs literally color memory and perception. Color itself becomes a subject, leaving behind its mood and patina as a shroud.In addition to Hargrave's photographs, Paradise Wavering also features an essay by Allison Grant, an interview by Kendra Paitz, and two excerpts from Rebecca Solnit's seminal book Field Guide to Getting Lost.

This nomadic phase allowed for only limited access to those Jacobson held dear, and the varied array of subject matter found in Postcards Home is consequently a record of a period of personal upheaval; of the endings and beginnings of very important relationships; of illnesses and deaths and births. All of the works in this book were taken with an iPhone, and most were immediately sent to someone Jacobson cared about, or were shared within his broader social network. This synergy of photography and communication was facilitated by mobile technology, a development that is transforming society’s understanding of the medium of photography from a frozen moment to a visual interaction between individuals, making this collection important both from a personal and historical perspective.Featured in Interview Magazine and Time.
