Damiani Mel D. Cole: American Protest. Photographs
Book SynopsisIn April 2020, during the early days of the COVID pandemic lockdowns, photographer Mel D. Cole started driving around New York City documenting the streets. This almost therapeutic exercise became a call to action upon the murder of George Floyd, and Cole dedicated the rest of 2020 to photographing the Black Lives Matter protests that swept the country. In addition to canvassing the action in New York City, Cole traveled to cover protests in Washington, DC, and Richmond, Virginia. The body of work he has produced from that electrifying summer is a powerful outpouring of the hurt, outrage, and courage of people compelled to take action following the brutal death of George Floyd. Inspired by the black-and-white documentary tradition of the 1960s, Cole seeks to create what he calls “a collective memory” that continues the legacy of the civil rights movement. That historical through-line is a bitter reminder of the oppression and resistance that continues today. Cole has said, “Shooting the Black Lives Matter movement is the most important work of my entire life. It meant the world to me to document and do this service. This is what I have, this is what I can bring to the table, and it’s my eye, my platform to tell the stories.”

Damiani Toiletpaper Magazine 19
Book SynopsisToiletpaper is an artists’ magazine created and produced by Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari, born out of a passion or obsession they both cultivate: images. The magazine contains no text; each picture springs from an idea, often simple, and through a complex orchestration of people it becomes the materialization of the artists’ mental outbursts. Since the first issue, in June 2010, Toiletpaper has created a world that displays ambiguous narratives and a troubling imagination. It combines the vernacular of commercial photography with twisted narrative tableaux and surrealistic imagery. The result is a publication that is itself a work of art, which, through its accessible form as a magazine, and through its wide distribution, challenges the limits of the contemporary art economy.

Damiani GSM: All Photographs shot on iPhone
Book SynopsisGSM - All photography shot on iPhone is the ultimate photo book entirely shot on an iPhone by French fashion photographer and director Axel Morin. Through his eye as an artist, Axel has developed a poetic storytelling of all the micro-narratives of the city, capturing the very essence of it. Since the beginning of this series initiated in 2014, several generations of iPhone have been used by Morin, who captured these city snapshots. The tones, the lines, the lights follow one another and answer each other in a cinematographic montage, presenting a modern and delicate world-city. This book is an archive of our time, made with the tool we always carry with us, which have become an extension of ourselves. The images are not anticipated or constructed, they are the ones that emerge from the urban monotony and are collected by the phone. The very graphic composition of the photographs draw from the background of Morin as a painter, and the association of lines and colors plunge us into a reenchanted everyday life.

InnoWorld Incorporated Art And Artistry Of Dominic Man-kit Lam, The: 1.
Book SynopsisThis book is published in connection with the exhibition entitled: ''Dr Dominic Man-kit Lam: Voyage of Discovery'' for the launching of the ''Hong Kong Classics: Art Culture and Music'' organized by the Hong Kong International Airport.Discovered by Dr Dominic Man-kit Lam in 1980, the Chromoskedasic process is a photographic process that generates a wide spectrum of colors using black and white photographic paper and solutions without the use of pigments or dye. Being a scientist and an art endeavor, after five years of systematic experiment, Dr Lam was able to control the production of a range of colors using the process, thus created a number of paintings with that process. Until 1989, Dr Bryant W Rossiter, Head of R&D of Kodak Company, found the color production mechanism of the process and coined the term ''Chromoskedasic'' for this new medium. The discovery was released in Scientific American in 1991.From his early training in Chinese calligraphy to his education in western society, and thus became a renowned professor of Ophthalmology, Dr Lam has gone through a bountiful journey with changes in the form of expression and ideology about art. This book reviews Dr Lam''s 35 years of artistic exploration with the application of the Chromoskedasic process, including other artists'' views about his art, his different stages of paintings, and the newly invented Iridescent gold. Moreover, further articles by Dr Rossiter about black and white photography in relation to the process as well as the original articles published in Scientific American are in the book.
