BOOK INFO Flexi, 11 X 9 In. / 160 Pages / 50 Color / 50 Duotone ISBN 9781942084037 List Price: $50.00 Text by Tim B Wride and Scott Eyman Photographs by Bert Teunissen, Gerald Slota and Jung Jin Li Though they were ceded to the federal government in 1821, it was not until the beginning of the twentieth century that the Everglades were systematically captured in photographs. Imaging Eden presents an overview of the pictures that have formed our understanding of the Everglades, one of the most contested and unique environments on the planet, and new approaches to photographing the vast wetlands system. 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. Amsterdam-based artist Bert Teunissen, American photographer and artist Gerald Slota, Korean-American Jung Jin Lee and Magnum Photos photographer Jim Goldberg, working in collaboration with Jordan Stein, have been tasked with discovering the Everglades on their own terms, through their widely differing sensibilities and with their unique visual vocabularies.Text by Tim B.

LIMITED PRINT COPIES ARE AVAILABLE. Email info@daylightbooks.org for info.View the CNN story hereView the Daylight Digital Feature hereIn this issue of Daylight Magazine, Iraq is presented from a number of perspectives. Living far from the front lines, it is the images that we as foreigners see on television and in newspapers that define our perception of the current situation in Iraq. For many of us, this is an armchair war consisting of images released by corporate-controlled media conglomerates and government censors with undeniable agendas. This issue of Daylight presents the work of photographers who have spent time in Iraq working to present their audience with an individual perspective of the region. What a photographer chooses to capture reflects a personal interest or desire to share a very specific moment with the spectrum of potential viewers. Susan Meiselas' images of the Kurdish mass graves in southern Iraq came to light ten years ago when the burial sites were exposed to the world. These images have gained contemporary relevance as they are once again being reproduced and reviewed as evidence in the legal case against Saddam Hussein. Sean Hemmerle's photographs concentrate on landscapes of war-damaged Baghdad. Also featured in the issue is the first appearance of the self-representative photographic project 'Iraq from Within' which later became the travelling exhibition 'Photographs by Iraqi Civilians, 2004'.Featuring portfolios by: Samantha Appleton, Sean Hemmerle, Roger Hutchings, Bruno Stevens, Susan Meiselas, Sheryl Mendez, Daniel Pepper and an essay by Amir Hassanpour.Available as a PDF download.

In exploring issues of “Sustainability,” this edition of Daylight suggests that the dualistic representation of humans and nature can change, and that documentary photography’s role in this transformation can range in scope from capturing the immense landscape—as seen in David Maisel’s stunning aerials of a breathing, living Los Angeles—to the intimate images of people embodying lifestyles of low environmental and economic impact, as seen through the work Joel Sternfeld and Leonie Purchas; to the Daylight-initiated, self-representative documentary work of domestic renewable fuel producers.Featuring portfolios by: David Maisel, Edgar Martins, Leonie Purchas, Joel Sternfeld, Bo Thomassen, and Jeff WhetstoneAvailable as a PDF download.
