Kyne photographs as a means understanding so-called reality, wondering what lies outside of the environment that she can detect with her own limited human biology. Ultimately, Kyne produces a photography of nature that does not rely on the nature genre, or even on the subject matter of nature for engagement or visual enjoyment, but instead examines the possibilities in the not-sensed and the imagined. A Crack In The World contains fresh and elegant, yet layered and technically complex photographs that inspire empathy for all beings, and the planet that sustains them. An accompanying essay by Susan Griffin examines the artistic and theoretical implications of this deceptively simple body of work.Barbara Kyne is an artist based in Oakland, California. Her work has been shown at SF Camerawork, Photo Center NW, the Trition Museum of Art, The Kala Institute, and the Bedford Gallery, and is featured in many contemporary photography books and publications.

They are images of loss and survival, fragments and lives, architecture and skin, surfaces and invisible things, like radiation. Exposure is at the core of Slavik's project: exposure to and exposures made from radiation, to the sun, to light, to history, and exposures made from radiation, the sun, light, and history, including historical artifacts from the Peace Memorial Museum’s collection.

Maj’s project is the largest record documenting the experiences of incarcerated women in Afghanistan produced to date. Her hauntingly beautiful, compassionate photographs, along with the accompanying personal stories of the inmates, are gathered together in her first monograph. The majority of the prisoners Maj documented were incarcerated for what are known in Afghanistan as “moral crimes,” accused of running away from forced marriages, being sold into prostitution, domestic slavery, physical violence generally conducted by their husbands, and rape and involuntary pregnancy. Being an independent female photographer enabled Maj to gain extraordinary access to her subjects with whom she established rapport and trust, visiting with many of the incarcerated women featured in the book over the course of multiple visits. Together, the voices in Almond Garden are a testimony to the human rights abuses many Afghan women continue to endure, and a call to action for the much-needed support in the battle for women’s rights in Afghanistan from the international community. Prison Photography.orgL'Oeil de la Photographie View Details

The story begins with four of George Elsasser's drawings made in 1999. The photographs are visual metaphors mirroring the artist's reactions to America's colonialism, the current moment and our inability to live up to American ideals. Long affected by Carl Jung's concepts of synchronicity and the unconscious, Elsasser's story ultimately points towards inner journeys, clarity and healing.George Elsasser, who had been drawing since childhood, discovered photography at twenty-one and found that, unmoored from traditional uses, it was perfect for his artistic intuitions.

For three months, he spent 6 to 8 hours a day, 5 to 6 days a week in the darkroom, editing and printing more than 140 photographs, many of which had never been printed before. The images documented Pride marches that took place during the height of another health crisis, the AIDS epidemic, the insidious and devastating disease that ravaged the LGBTQ+ community. The parallels between the two health crises became clear as news reports on the pandemic unfolded, revealing the same failures of government repeating themselves yet again. The marches also affirmed that healthcare, including treatment for people with HIV/AIDS, is a right. They demanded an end to the stigma and criminalization of HIV, as well as a more effective response from medical and government agencies and officials who fail to provide funding for research on medical treatment or offer legal, housing, and medical services to people with limited access. This demonstration of solidarity strengthened the sense of community and helped protect the rights earned from the Stonewall Rebellion in 1969 and the first NYC Pride March, also known as the Christopher Street Liberation Day March, which took place on June 28, 1970, one year after the Stonewall Rebellion."Archive/Journal: 1985-1995/2001" is a two-volume title in a slipcase bringing together two related bodies of work: Volume 1, "Archive 1985-1995," reproduces approximately 80 black-and-white photographs made of the NYC Pride marches during the height of the AIDS epidemic from 1985 to 1995. The photographs are accompanied by timelines, ephemera, newspaper articles, etc., and essays by Miss Rosen, Nikita Shepard, and Theodore Zinn, to expand the political, social, and historical understanding of the culture, activism, and milieu of the LGBTQ+ community.       Volume 2: "Journal: 1985-2001" focuses on personal narratives culled from Cianni's journals, and visual stories of lovers and friends who were living with or who died from AIDS, reflecting on his journey with HIV and his experience with activism surrounding HIV/AIDS from the same period as the Pride photographs.Vincent Cianni is a documentary photographer, educator, and activist who explores social justice through image, text, and audio. He was Adjunct Associate Professor at the Parsons School of Design for 30 years and the founder and director of the Newburgh Community Photo Project, a grassroots community photo workshop in Newburgh, NY.

Amy Gelb's plain-spoken, yet graceful portraits invite the viewer to engage in a conversation about women, self-image, and how we define true beauty. By cropping closely into her subjects, Gelb literalizes the compartmentalization of the female form and recreates the fragmentation of a woman's identity. Her subjects are anonymous and are free to express themselves fully without fear of consequence.  Amy Gelb was born in New York City, and currently resides and works in Miami Beach. She is a graduate from the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University. Gelb’s work has been featured in prominent art galleries in South Florida, and during Art Basel.

Craft, Adam Sobsey, and Emma D. Miller  Around a season of minor league baseball, Bull City Summer: A Season at the Ballpark brings together a team of artists and documentarians to find stories and images on the field and behind the scenes, presenting a microcosm of contemporary America engaged in a favorite pastime. The Durham Bulls are one of the most popular and successful minor league baseball teams in the country, with more players being sent to the Majors than any other minor league team. To diversify the documentation of the 2013 season, guest artists Alex Harris, Frank Hunter, Kate Joyce, Elizabeth Matheson, Leah Sobsey, Alec Soth, Hank Willis Thomas and Hiroshi Watanabe were invited to photograph the team in Durham. "The opportunity to photograph spring baseball in North Carolina was a no-brainer," Soth says. "The pacing of baseball arouses a kind of leisurely attentiveness that is analogous to photographic seeing. You look and look and then every once in a while, snap, you get a hit."

Sobsey photographs bird skins, bleached bones, clipped ferns, and tattered shoes, which she unearths from the dark drawers of national park museum collections. Plucked from their original context, she illuminates them with sun and light, giving them new definition. The subject matter of each series she creates is dictated by her discoveries, bridging past to present, honoring both the specimens she works with and the medium of photography.Sobsey's project is particularly timely during this centennial year of the National Park Service, and as museum collections find themselves in a state of crisis due to diminishing funding and support. Her focus on the parks is a way of preserving these fragile specimens that represent American history. This body of work sheds light on the importance and significance of the collections and their impact on science, history, the humanities, and the hundreds of thousands of visitors who leave their footprints on our national parks.

It is difficult, if not impossible, to imagine the most significant events of the last century without the photographic forms in which they were captured. Lesser known and suppressed activities that have greatly impacted modern global power dynamics also leave photographic traces, and in many cases, photography has been at the center of clandestine actions by state and parapolitical actors. Critical Collection is an assemblage of declassified archival photographs and other found images processed and re-contextualized by artist and researcher Evan Hume. He obtains this source material primarily from the Central Intelligence Agency, National Archives, and National Reconnaissance Office. With photographic intelligence gathering at its core, Hume’s work expands centrifugally, making unexpected visual and conceptual connections that form a complex web of fact and speculation. At a time of AI proliferation and heightened global tension, Critical Collection encourages viewers to look closely at remnants of the once-secret imaging systems that have shaped the world and imagine what remains unseen. Evan Hume is an artist and educator living in Ames, Iowa, where he is Assistant Professor of Photography at Iowa State University. He earned his BFA from Virginia Commonwealth University and MFA  from George Washington University. Raised in the Washington, DC area, Hume's approach to photography is informed by the experience of living in the nation’s political center for much of his life and focuses on the medium’s use as an instrument of the military-industrial complex. He has exhibited widely in solo and group exhibitions and his work has been featured by publications such as Aperture, Der Greif, Financial Times, and Fisheye. Hume’s first monograph, Viewing Distance, was published by Daylight Books in 2021. Lily Brewer holds a Ph.D. in History of Art and Architecture from the University of Pittsburgh specializing in modern and contemporary portrait and landscape photography in the United States southwest. Studying the concurrent development between photographic and weapon technologies, Brewer traces the contours of visual culture and history as it relates to war operations, military preparedness, conflict, and weapons testing during and after the Second World War and its visual articulations today. She is editor-in-chief and founder of sedimenta.org.  View Details

The intent of this environmental photography project is to bring attention to the increasingly arid condition of the Colorado River basin, and prompt discussion and learning about not only the Colorado River watershed, but of water supply in general.Debbie Bentley is a photographer and multi-disciplinary artist from Denver, Colorado. Her work focuses primarily on the documentation of places and environments, their connection to the internal parts of people, and the need as an artist to see and record this connectivity. Linda Connor’s peripatetic practice demonstrates a longstanding interest in the relationship between systems of belief and the natural world, and has seen her photographing wide-ranging subjects, from sacred sites and intricately jagged cliff faces, to antique plate-glass negatives from San Jose’s Lick Observatory and petrified bodies from the eruption of Mt.

As a freelance photographer, Zalmaï has spent years capturing the human cost of war around the world and in his home country, Afghanistan, where he also sees signs of hope. Dread and Dreams brings together photographs Zalmaï made between 2008 and 2013 against the backdrop of the 14-year U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan that culminated in 2014 with the withdrawal of American troops.The book presents two contrasting bodies of work: Zalmaï’s epic duotone photographs reveal the stark reality of life in Afghanistan for the millions of Afghan refugees who have returned to their country since 2002, only to find they cannot go back to their homes. Instead, they are forced to live in squalid conditions in makeshift refugee camps and urban slums, where most live on the brink of survival and many take refuge in drugs. In counterpoint to this, Zalmaï then presents a second series of sun-tinged color photographs that reflect the hopes and dreams of the Afghan people. Here, Zalmaï takes us away from the monumental humanitarian crisis wrought by war to reveal signs of the positive life force that permeates his country.Empathetic, indignant, and still hopeful, Zalmaï’s photographs draw attention to Afghanistan’s ongoing struggle, which has largely left the headlines, by focusing on the Afghan people and their lived experience of war, insecurity, chronic governmental mismanagement, corruption on a huge scale and international negligence.  View Details

The project, titled Empire, yielded more than 9,000 photographs captured in 25 states. Using two hand-held 4x5 view cameras, Hyers and Mebane ventured out into public places, met strangers and accompanied them back to their homes, offices and factories to photograph. Working in a deliberately forensic fashion, they photographed the objects they encountered -- stoves, family photographs, computers, trophies and the like. Many of the objects included in their project are discomfiting because of their impending obsolescence: an overhead projector rests on a table; a typewriter sits on a desk; a set of encyclopedias waits, well-organized, on a yellow bookshelf.Text by Karen Irvine View Details

As an adopted person, photographer Eric Mueller always wondered what it would be like to look like someone else. At age forty-five, when he saw a photo of his birth mother for the first time it triggered the idea to photograph family members with shared physical characteristics. Over a three-year period he photographed around 700 people—from newborns to nonagenarians—asking them about their own experiences with family resemblance. Eric Mueller is a Minneapolis-based artist, photographer, and teacher. His photographs have been exhibited in dozens of group shows, including at the Plains Art Museum, the Devos Art Museum, the Midwest Center for Photography, Head On Photo Festival, the Southeast Center for Photography, and the Columbus Museum of Art.Ann Fessler is the author of The Girls Who Went Away: The Hidden History of Women Who Surrendered Children for Adoption in the Decades Before Roe v.

Today, the proud presence of Acadian heritage on the shores of the Bay of Fundy is unmistakable in Mark Marchesi's soft, pastel images of churches, Acadian flags, and unique architecture. But the region's population is dwindling, and the culture that struggled against the New World British influence is again losing ground. Marchesi eloquently portrays this gradual exodus of the Acadian people from rural Nova Scotia in haunting landscapes of empty seaports and abandoned Victorian properties.This is the forest primeval; but where are the hearts that beneath itLeaped like the roe, when he hears in the woodland the voice of the huntsman?Where is the thatch-roofed village, the home of Acadian farmers,Men whose lives glided on like rivers that water the woodlands,Darkened by shadows of earth, but reflecting an image of heaven?Mark Marchesi received a BFA in Photography from Maine College of Art in 1999.

Dugan (born 1986) has created intimate portraits that engage with issues of identity, sexuality, gender and community. Her first book, Every Breath We Drew, compiles color portraits of the artist and others. Working within the framework of queer experience and actively constructed masculinity, these portraits examine the intersection between private, individual identity and the search for intimate connection with others. The photographs are made in private spaces, often the subject's home or bedroom, using medium- and large-format cameras to create a sustained engagement that results in an intimate portrait.With text by curator Amy Galpin and an interview by acclaimed photographer Dawoud Bey, this hardcover is an important addition to the canon of queer photography.

This is a painful part of our American history. Betty Yu is reclaiming that narrative through her own personal family’s story. The book will feature her grandfather’s role as a founding member of the Chinese Hand Laundry Alliance of NY, her mother’s plight as a garment worker who became a labor organizer, as well as her sister’s legacy as a community activist. Yu knows that her family's story is not unique. It is part of the larger collective Asian-American immigration experience.This book project reminds us that the rise of COVID-related anti-Asian violence is part of a larger history of systemic racism. As the U.S. government and corporate-run media continue to vilify China as a global threat, Family Amnesia recalls the anti-China and anti-Asian paranoia and hysteria that created the policies like the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act and the 1942 Executive Order that placed Japanese-Americans into internment camps. The book will also draw visually on geo-political history, recalling narratives that mocked China as the "sick man of Asia '' and that demonized Chinese as “Yellow Peril”. Betty Yu is an award-winning filmmaker, socially engaged multimedia artist, photographer and activist born and raised in NYC. Yu integrates documentary film, installation, new media platforms, and community-infused approaches into her practice. Betty’s films and multimedia work has focused on labor, immigration, gentrification, abolition, racism, militarism, transgender equality among other issues.   View Details

Harvey Wang interviewed and photographed more than 40 important photographers and prominent figures in the field, including Jerome Liebling, George Tice, Elliott Erwitt, David Goldblatt, Sally Mann, Gregory Crewdson, Susan Meiselas and Eugene Richards, as well as innovators Steven Sasson (who built the first digital camera while at Kodak) and Thomas Knoll (who created Photoshop along with his brother). This collection of personal narratives and portraits is both a document of this critical moment and a unique history of photography. Much of Wang's work has been about disappearance—of trades, neighborhoods, and ways of life—and to live through this transition in his own craft has enabled him to illuminate the state of the art as both an insider and a documentary photographer.  View Details

As the Human Rights Commission attests, the US military has a long history of civil rights abuses against homosexuals, with harassment and discrimination frequently resulting in lost careers. In many cases, these men and women—highly skilled, well-educated, patriotic, courageous, and productive—had attained high rank, received numerous medals, and held top-level jobs essential to the military. With essays by Alison Nordstrom, Don Bramer and Alan Steinman shedding light on the cultural, personal, and political consequences of the ban on homosexuality, this volume tells the stories of men and women who served in silence, and oftentimes were penalized and prohibited from receiving the benefits accorded them for serving in the military.     View Details

The discarded items offer the opportunity to reflect on what unreasonable expectations both the artist and the female collective can also leave behind, providing a chance to rediscover who they were before they learned how they were seen by the world. The book's forward is written by Elinor Carucci, a multi-award winning fine art photographer with work featured in many solo and group exhibitions and museums worldwide, as well as an impressive number of publications internationally.A group essay included in this publication shares thoughts from a variety of women ranging in age from 13-81 years old, including artist and filmmaker Laurie Simmons, renowned actor and musician Jill Hennesy, 2018 Guggenheim Fellow and educator Rania Matar, founder of wellness platform MWH Melissa Wood-Tepperberg, the artist’s daughter and son, Luna and Sergio Riva, and many more. Jamie Schofield Riva is a documentary and fine art photographer based out of New York City. Elinor Carucci is a Fine Art Photographer with work included in many solo and group exhibitions worldwide as well as publications internationally.

These include several photographs from 1936 that Walker Evans had made for Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, the book he published with James Agee. Also included are never before published photographs by Walker Evans, Russell Lee, Ben Shahn, Marion Post Wolcott, John Vachon, Paul Carter, Theodor Jung, Carl Mydans, and Arthur Rothstein.While the book's images document 1930s agriculture and landscapes, they also have been chosen for the manner in which their black hole (created by Roy Stryker's hole punch) abstracts its subjects. McDowell feels that, from a modern viewpoint, the black hole of the "killed" negatives has the appearance of being a contemporary mark, one current with the practice of intervention, alteration, and appropriation. This provides the photographs a temporal duality in which they present the post-Depression era through a contemporary filter. In our continuing struggle to recover from 2008's Great Recession, these photographs speak to now even as they confer on past government programs, race and class, damaged and bountiful land, drought, flood, and exodus.

His photographs show scenes inscrutable to viewers and difficult to identify: their relationship with the world around them seems senseless. The restlessness that characterizes his work is connected to Freud's concept of the Uncanny, which locates the origins of horror in the homely and familiar. The scenes depicted in these photographs emphasize what usually remains hidden: the repressed, which cannot be described. The anxiety these scenes arouse undermines the peacefulness and security usually associated with home. Essays by Eran Bar-Gil and Crista Dix. View Details

The book provides an intimate view of South Africa, 25 years after apartheid, through the life of Donald Banda. Since 2012, I have been collaborating with Donald Banda to explore questions of home and belonging. I met Donald when he was living in Woodlane Village, an informal settlement located in a wealthy suburb in Pretoria. The Village is a microcosm for the tensions South Africa is experiencing around land, migration, and the growing gap between the rich and the poor.  Early in my time with Donald, he confided that he had long desired to have his story told. But he never had the means to do so. This book represents my promise to carry his story forward. His narrative personifies the story of my homeland: a place of promise and heartache; a place of perseverance and faith; a place where personal histories reveal complex social truths. As South Africa observes the 25-year anniversary of the abolishment of apartheid, it is important to reflect on the country’s imperfect journey to democracy. For many, the dream of the “rainbow nation” remains elusive.  Pieter de Vos is an award-winning photographer, educator and facilitator.Leilani Farha is the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Right to Housing.Stephan de Beer is the Director of the Centre of Contextual Ministry, University of Pretoria.  View Details

Her parents are the fourth, and last, consecutive generation to work this land, as she and her siblings have all moved away to pursue other careers. The realization that she was part of a larger rural exodus provided her with the impetus to document her farm at this critical juncture. She combined her images with materials from her family’s archive to create a rich, multi-layered narrative about family tradition, agriculture, emigration, and the passage of time. The result is a document which not only tells of of hard toil and the declining economic role of the family farm, but celebrates a resilient, fiercely independent tradition. View Details

Using vernacular images, as well as works by such celebrated photographers as Walker Evans, Marian Post Wolcott, Eliot Porter, James Balog and Clyde Butcher, Imaging Eden provides a framework that contextualizes four contemporary commissioned projects.

In popular mythology, few professions are as emblematic of this mobile, ambitious and commercially minded nation as the traveling salesman. As the Internet and outsourcing make this once ubiquitous occupation obsolete, May the Road Rise to Meet You explores the life of a businessman alone on the road.

Over a quarter-century later, Morrie's wisdom resonates with many people around the world due to the best-selling memoir to date: Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom. Morrie's warmth and vitality comes through in each photograph to illustrate love and loss; caregiving and self-care; family, friends and always community.  Morrie taught people, including Heather - how to live fulfilling lives with love. It is by facing fears of death that we learn how to live. Heather Pillar, photographer and teacher, has lived, taught and photographed in seven countries over four continents during the past 25 years. Her personal and collaborative photographic projects reveal her ongoing interest in women, girls, education and aging.Rob Schwartz is an entrepreneur, writer, music and film producer, and son of Morrie Schwartz.

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.

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.

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.  View Details

The resulting volume of stylistically eclectic photographs represents a diary-like record of an itinerant life that seems a far cry from the On the Road-style liberty enjoyed by rebellious young people of the 1950s and 60s--and yet Mayes’ pictures, taken in places that range from the Southern Oregon Coast to Italy, France, Seattle, Washington, DC and New York’s Financial District, Tribeca and Brooklyn, are nothing if not joyful, exuberant exercises in freedom and revolt. With this volume, Mayes moves forward from the portrayal of more liberated lifestyles that she began in the 1960s with her pictures from San Francisco’s Haight Ashbury and the music counterculture to focus on a broader vista that encompasses our current cultural moment.

Van Riper’s striking black and white photographs spanning twenty years, coupled with his eloquent texts, capture the 20th-century romance and grit of New York more than a half century ago, and Paris, some forty years ago. It was a time when the pace of life was slower and somehow less threatening, people talked to each other instead of texting on their iPhones, and you literally had to stop and smell the coffee. Frank Van Riper is an internationally acclaimed documentary and fine art photographer, journalist and author.

As a seeker of mystery and lover of solitude, the quietude of this land, with its watery blues and gentle, enveloping grays, Sanjuan immediately felt an intimate connection with the muted snowscape. Silent Snow urges one to pause, to explore, as Elizabeth does, the lessons of the single tree; strength in solitude and the will to withstand any storm.Elizabeth Sanjuan is a visual artist whose images examine the people, landscape, and man-made surroundings that define and shape our cultures and communities.

Ross The photographs in Silent Stages set the scene for dramatic urban narratives, like theatrical stages or movie sets. At the same time, they constitute artifacts from various stages of the artist’s life, visual traces of the sedimentary layers that have quietly accumulated atop one another over time. Dreyfack sees them almost as relics from a personal archeological dig—a layered visual memoir that emerges from the artist’s dual Franco-American identity. All of the images, shot over the past five years around New York or Paris, establish visual and thematic parallels and equivalencies between the two seemingly disparate poles of the artist’s life. Ken Dreyfack is a nationally exhibiting artist. Ken was awarded second prize for The Photo Review’s 2018 competition, juried by MOMA photography curator Sarah Meister. His work was selected for Photography Now 2018 at CPW and was awarded a silver prize at the 2019 San Francisco Bay International Photography Competition. David A.

Over the years, various governmental policies have resulted in new, decentralized cities with limited infrastructures, where the pursuit of immediate financial gain trumps any interest in sustainability. Cartagena captures both the destruction that rapid urbanization has imposed on the landscape and the phenomenon of densely packed housing. Pictures of dried-up riverbeds attest to the water misallocation and depletion brought about by the construction, and Cartagena depicts perpetual rows of tiny houses slicing directly into the foothills of the picturesque mountains that surround Monterrey. Only the landscape appears capable of limiting their proliferation: the mountains and rivers seem the only forces able of containing the suburban sprawl. Ultimately, Cartagena documents the chaos and destruction that result from scant or misguided urban planning. He lives in downtown Monterrey, and he cares deeply about its land, its people, and its future. Understanding that overdevelopment is not just a local problem, he works hard as an artist to share his photographs as one clear plea for responsible, sustainable development in a rapidly changing world.

Haley's explorations were intuitive, responding to a deep curiosity to taste the last drops of the would-be utopian ideology that dominated global politics during the first thirty years of his life. Using black and white film, the notion of remnants and transition would sustain Haley's photographic investigation for some eight years. The resulting images present a stark perspective of the collapse of the communist empire. Haley’s photographs are bleak and brimming with the realism that only a photographer as seasoned as he is could achieve. Given the contrast with Haley’s conflict-based coverage, which was dominated by lush color imagery depicting the most horrific acts of violence imaginable, this personal project seems as much a portrait of the photographer himself as it is an invaluable historical archive.Featured by the New Yorker and New York TimesIntroduction by Kirsten RianForeword by Dina and Clint EastwoodEssay by Andrei Codrescu View Details

Global in scope, but with a focus on the Americas, the book begins in the tumultuous 1960s just one year after the Summer of Love (1967), when the author was a young college student who photographed the counterculture, street life on New York City’s gritty Lower East Side, and icons such as Andy Warhol and later Nina Simone, among others. The book then catapults us into a First Nation reserve in Quebec, Canada, as we follow Ressler’s trajectory from novice ethnographic image-maker to mature photographic artist––a career that parallels and comments on the growth of financial empires and consumerism as well as shifting trends in photography itself.Susan Ressler Photographs: 50 Years, No End In Sight is an impressive retrospective that traces over fifty years of artistic development. It includes six major bodies of photographic work introduced in her own words, complemented by two interpretive essays: one by Eve Schillo on Ressler’s California work, and the other an afterword by Mark Rice. Although some of the images appear in Ressler’s previous Daylight monographs (Executive Order and Dreaming California), many are published here for the first time. These include “At Owner’s Risk” (her Canadian First Nation photographs), “From Analog to Digital” (an account of photography’s transition from analog film to digital media), and “Beyond Borders” (work from Europe, Asia, and Israel). The book ends with “American Stories,” including South America and the export of US culture abroad, before Ressler comes home to Taos, New Mexico, where she lives and continues to make photographs today.Susan Ressler is a renowned artist, author, and educator who has been making social documentary photographs for more than fifty years. Her work is in the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Library and Archives Canada, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), and many other important collections. A recipient of two National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) fellowships, Ressler is internationally exhibited and published. She has published two previous monographs with Daylight Books: Executive Order (2018) and Dreaming California (2023).Eve Schillo is Associate Curator in the Wallis Annenberg Photography Department at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). She has curated many notable and diverse exhibitions featured in LACMA's galleries dedicated to American, Latin American, Southeast Asian, Japanese, modern, and contemporary art, as well as those devoted to photography.Mark Rice is an award-winning author and professor of American Studies at St. John Fisher University near Rochester, New York. He has published several books and contributed essays on photography and visual culture to numerous scholarly journals.

Following this, several years were spent researching and writing on each of the 79 photographs featured in this book. In these texts, colonial and industrial histories weave in and out of geology, pre- European Māori history, outside forces from the United States and Europe, and contemporary issues like privatisation, asset sales, the New Zealand housing crisis, and the country’s rebranding as a ‘clean & green’ tourist destination.Similar to the collapse of America’s industrial Midwest, New Zealand has also experienced the whiplash of industry vanishing. Here though, this has been complicated by much of this industry first emerging in conjunction with European colonization. Corson-Scott’s work focuses on these tensions, particularly in Te Waipounamu South Island, where the regions of the West Coast and Otago see industrial remnants contrasted with vast and complex landscapes. From these areas come images of freezing works on sacred rivers, contested mining projects, dwellings of 19 th century Chinese miners, gold processing plants still contaminated more than a century later, floods of acid mine drainage, and the demolition of factories which once built the country’s modern infrastructure. Elsewhere, on a remote sandspit is one of history’s largest whale strandings, industrial spaces are repurposed by artists, controversial hydroelectric schemes divert rivers, ancient forest remnants become tourism, and city fringe orchards are bulldozed for development.Chris Corson-Scott is an artist from Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand. His photography has been exhibited in over 40 museum and private gallery exhibitions in Aotearoa, and his work is held in permanent collections including: Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki, Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū, and Ngā Puhipuhi o Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington Art Collection. His previous publications include Evanescent Monuments (2018), and Dreaming in the Anthropocene (2017), both on Compound Press.Christina Barton is a writer, curator, editor and educator based in Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand.

Ranging in content from details of quotidian life to poetic visual metaphors, The Day the Dam Collapses paints the cycles of life as fleeting, fragile, and devastatingly ephemeral. In his introduction to the book, Watanabe writes: "the truth is, we are all living like the characters in a disaster movie. We know we may someday face a disaster or a terrible event, but we keep living calmly as we do not know what and when that might occur. But a disaster will surely come to us. And the largest disaster must be our death that we all have to face sometime in the future." Despite these looming intimations of mortality, Watanabe persists in recording and sharing a life fully felt.Text by Kirsten Rian. View Details

Now, in the post-Covid reboot of Italy’s ever growing tourist industry, Umbria is poised to attract much needed visitors to help support this central region of the country. The Green Heart of Italy weaves between exteriors and interiors of this unique emerging region, painting a picture of an oasis unknown to most. This monograph also incudes an extensive body of text, written by Frank Van Riper that provides a first hand account of these often overlooked gems.Frank Van Riper and Judith Goodman are husband and wife documentary and fine art

Some present. After each chemotherapy session I retreated to our home in the Catskills to recuperate. I began photographing around the house as I was too sick to go anywhere else. As my strength returned, my photographic universe slowly expanded. Shortly thereafter, Kodak discontinued production of Kodachrome. I loved Kodachrome, it helped shape my photographic vision. I filled my refrigerator and wine cooler with the stuff and kept shooting. I have outlived my film. A few days before Christmas, 2010, I exposed my last roll.” This compelling body of photographs provides a nuanced, first-person depiction of a cancer patient’s changing perspectives on life, death, art and the world at large.Featured in Mother Jones, The Guardian, Publishers Weekly, Photo District News, CNN Photo Blog, and Slate.com.

The images, created by Australia-based artist Judith Crispin in close consultation with indigenous people, document an attempt by the Warlpiri group to share sacred information with white people; the poems convey the artist's interpretation of those ideas, alongside her development of personal relationships with community elders.Judith Crispin returned to Australia in 2011 after living and working in Germany for several years. Since that time she has driven the 8000km round trip from her home in Canberra to the remote community of Lajamanu many times and established a close relationship with the Warlpiri community there.

Chesser and White Eagle's experiment produced The Return, a lyrical portrait of a contemporary nomadic existence.

The story of Massillon football can be seen through the extraordinary ways in which the community comes together to support its Tigers, season after season and generation after generation.Tiger Legacy is rooted in a more than one hundred-year history that traces back to the origins of the sport. While football was not created in Massillon, it took root there in ways that popularized the game. The rivalry between Massillon and the nearby Canton McKinley Bulldogs began in 1894 and is considered among the greatest high school football rivalries in the United States. Both teams are in the top ten nationally for total team victories, and historians believe the rivalry had a key role in the evolution of pro-football. The American Professional Football Association was formed in Canton, Ohio, in 1920 and a few years later, it would become the National Football League. In 1963, the Pro Football Hall of Fame was established in Canton. View Details

Surveying the myriad and disjointed experiences that make up a life, Traces explores the way we construct our internal narratives and create meaning from experience.

In her new publication, TransCuba, Allen focuses on the transgender community of Cuba, especially its growing visibility and acceptance in a country whose government is transitioning into a more relaxed model of communism under Raúl Castro's presidency. This publication therefore records a cultural watershed within Cuba. In addition to color photographs and interviews by Allen, the book also includes a contribution from Raúl Castro's daughter, Mariela Castro, who is the director of the Cuban National Center for Sex Education in Havana. In 2005, Castro proposed a project, which became law three years later, to allow transgender individuals to receive sex reassignment surgery and change their legal gender. Featured in Mother Jones, Slate, Out, and Huffpo.Text by Mariela Castro, Allen Frame, Wendy Watriss View Details

But as you drill down into them, you start to see that they are also documents of loss." - The Washington Post, December 9, 2020"The images document abandoned industrial and residential sites, as well as the toxic side effects of urban growth. They shine a light on the consequences of past planning decisions, institutional racism, environmental disregard, and America’s unchecked manifest destiny." - Photobook JournalAlso featured in:DiggPhotographs by Travis FoxForeword by Philip KennicottRemains To Be Seen explores a disappearing but still tangible American landscape, from the rust-belt towns of the Midwest to the borscht-belt resorts of the Catskill mountains. Using aerial photography with documentary candor and precision, Travis Fox creates a visually sumptuous record of former industrial sites and abandoned neighborhoods that persist as incisions on the landscape, scars in the memory, and traces of healing. Fox finds patterns that would be undetectable from the ground, uncovering a new visual record of old and debilitating problems, from institutionalized racism to environmental destruction. Remains to be Seen offers a bracing vision of an America that has become so familiar that it is, paradoxically, invisible to many Americans. Through a view from above, detached but vulnerable, his camera counters that disappearance and connects old landscapes to contemporary conscience.Travis Fox is an Emmy Award-winning journalist and the Director of Visual Journalism at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY.Philip Kennicott is the Pulitzer Prize-winning Senior Art and Architecture Critic of the Washington Post.  View Details

Kirsten Lewis' curiosity regarding the everyday routine of raising children is what led me to begin spending anywhere between 24 and 72 hours simply documenting a family's unscripted life. With the birth of social media came the ability for anyone to present a highly curated version of themselves and their life, oftentimes under the social pressures to appear "perfect". Lewis has watched this directly affect how parents, especially mothers, share their life with the outside virtual world. Ultimately, this creates a feeling of isolation and loneliness, as parents are completely disconnected from the reality of their life and their tailored life online. This photographic exploration is an attempt to reveal the similarities Lewis has witnessed by photographing her subjects' vulnerability, challenges, joy, hardships and humorous moments of raising a family.Kirsten Lewis is an international photographer, educator and public speaker based in Colorado. Over the last 2 decades she has traveled to over 40 countries to work with organizations, non profits, companies and individuals creating documentary based pictures to aid in fundraising, advertising, awareness and personal family archive builds.  View Details

While many of the source images date back to the mid-twentieth century, they have only recently been declassified and much information remains secret. These images represent the decades-long time delay from when knowledge comes into being and when it becomes publicly accessible. Some are deliberately concealed while others have been altered by repeated reproduction during their time in the archives. Evan Hume is an artist and educator living in Ames, Iowa, where he is Assistant Professor of Photography at Iowa State University. He earned his BFA from Virginia Commonwealth University and MFA  from George Washington Univeristy. Raised in the Washington, DC area, Hume's approach to photography is informed by the experience of living in the nation’s political center for much of his life and focuses on the medium’s use as an instrument of the military-industrial complex. He has exhibited widely in solo and group exhibitions and his work has been featured by publications such as Aperture, Der Greif, Financial Times, and Fisheye. Hume’s first monograph, Viewing Distance, was published by Daylight Books in 2021.                                          Lily Brewer holds a Ph.D. in History of Art and Architecture from the University of Pittsburgh specializing in modern and contemporary portrait and landscape photography in the United States southwest. Studying the concurrent development between photographic and weapon technologies, Brewer traces the contours of visual culture and history as it relates to war operations, military preparedness, conflict, and weapons testing during and after the Second World War and its visual articulations today.
