The Eagle LA, opened in 2005, follows a long-standing tradition of leather fetish and uniform, set forth by leather Eagle bars around the country.This publication presents images by American photographer John Arsenault (born 1971), who worked at the Eagle LA as a barback, or "barmaid," as Arsenault liked to refer to the position. The series consists of customer and employee portraits, interior landscapes from the bar, and self-portraits. Having observed the fetish leather and uniform community from afar for many years, Arsenault was eventually accepted into its midst. These exclusive photographs reflect an insider's view of the iconic bar.

These moments hold intimate gestures of couples; some tender, rubbing sunscreen on a partner's back; others lustful, a deep kiss in the water. Being amongst the waves and sand emboldens couples to enjoy more affectionate freedom, their inhibitions less hidden than anywhere else observed in the city. Beach Lovers is about the public display of intimacy between couples from diverse backgrounds, a claiming of public space for private tenderness.Erica Reade is originally from Montreal Canada, and she has been living and working in NYC for over 15 years. Reade holds an MA in International Affairs from New School University, with a background in photography for social change. She became a freelance photographer in 2018. She spends as much time at the beach as possible, and her personal work is a reflection of that.Gulnara Samoilova is a fine art and street photographer based in New York City and the founder of @WomenStreetPhotographers Instagram feed and the traveling exhibition.

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."

By consistently chronicling moments over decades, the photographs become markers of what has passed, while also unfolding a kind of tomorrow that exists beyond the frame of the images." - Art DailyAlso featured in:L’Oeil de la Photographie, Budapest Fhoto Awards, Square Mag, Photoeye Blog, and Lenscratch.Photographs by Carole GlauberContributions by Elinor Carucci, Carole Glauber, Ben Glauber, and Sam Glauber-Zimra For thirty years photo-historian Carole Glauber photographed her sons with a with a 1950s Kodak Brownie Hawkeye camera.

BOOK INFO Trade Cloth, 10 X 10 In. / 128 Pages / 80 Color ISBN 9781942084174 List Price: $45.00 "Sobsey’s work will remind you of the continual cycle of life and death...", - Musee Magazine, June 16, 2016"...her book tells a story about America’s natural history at a time when climate change and funding cuts call the future of the our indigenous species and wild spaces into question.", - Slate, September 16, 2016Photographs by Leah Sobsey Contributions by John Fitzpatrick and Xandra Eden Leah Sobsey works at the intersection of nineteenth-century photographic processes and twenty-first century digital technology. 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.
