Torch Press hanayos saugeile kumpels
Book SynopsisEncountering the Fall of the Berlin Wall during her trip from Paris in 1989, where she was studying back then, birth of baby girl Tenko between German guy met in Tokyo, and invitation from director Christoph Schlingensief to Berlin a curious turn of fate made Hanayo live in Germany from 1999 to 2010. Letting herself go with the flow, but spent purposeful, willing lives in Germany such Hanayo's way of life overlaps with unique, weightless and fantastic photographs she takes. Hanayo's apartment in Berlin were always full of friends. It didn't matter who you are and where you are from, and everyone were tied by bonds naturally while spending time and sharing space together. Germany became like Hanayo's second hometown. In this book, selected works from massive collection of photographs Hanayo daily took through her life in Germany. Photographs of landscape, everyday life, portraits of friends and fellow artists as well as rather abstract images are intriguingly edited like a flow of images, freed from time spectrum. End notes by Hanayo will explain also some relationship of the friends and artists appeared in this book, as well as the contexts of Germany back then. This compliation of photographs of 15 years tells you cultures and airs of then Germany, and statement of life of an artist, Hanayo.

Libro Arte just a man in love
Book SynopsisHiroshi Shiohara's second photobook Just a Man in Love portrays a couple having sex in a way not yet seen. Shiohara focuses exclusively on the facial expressions of the man as the couple goes from foreplay to climax (and eventually a walk in the grass, holding hands). The book offers no context and no details about the couple; yet the man's face earnest, natural, unpretending, glistening with sweat tells a whole story. A brilliant, poetic book about passion and love.

Osiris Gips
Book SynopsisA leg fixed in plaster (gips in Japanese) means a limitation to everyday life that will last for several weeks. Japanese photographer Asako Narahashi had an exhibition planned for the following month when she broke her left pinky toe and had her leg covered in a cast in April of 1991. Not yet having taken enough photographs to cover the walls of the gallery, she decided to document her life with her leg in plaster. [T]he reason I didn't want to look back on these photos until now was also because I didn't want to be reunited with myself as I appear in them. Memory is a vague thing, recalling only the good things or forgetting and rearranging things as is convenient. Reunions with one's younger self are bitter-sweet and sour. []Though I had reviewed the contact prints carefully at the time, when I've looked back over them in the intervening twenty-five-plus years, I've seen things I didn't think of before, and things that I hadn't noticed back then look newly striking or charming now. On the other hand, some shots that I selected before are embarrassing, and I probably wouldn't choose them now. from Asako Narahashi's afterword

Roshin books Across the Sea
Book SynopsisThe photobook Across the Sea consists of photographs taken by Yoko Kusano during her first stay in London. For Kusano, whose photography captures everyday life's intricacies in sharp detail, it is her first contact with the city and its sights. Her story begins from somewhat distant viewpoint, but gradually Kusano accepts the muted loneliness she feels in this new world and begins to react purely and harmoniously to everything her eyes encounter. Her gaze somewhat blurred and sleepy, her vision yet lights up occasionally. The loneliness of London is the same loneliness she had known in Tokyo, after moving there on her own from her home in Fukushima. What Kusano sees before her is, after all, nothing but the same present moment as it exists anywhere else in the world. With great care, roshin books has combined Kusano's experiences into a single photobook. Born in Fukushima in 1993

Veenman Publishers Clinic
Book SynopsisClinic explores the aesthetic of the medical world through contemporary photography. Going a stage beyond photojournalism, it showcases the work of eleven photographers, exploring their unique perspectives on this multi-faceted theme. Partly created through hospital artist-in-residence programs, these photographs portray an intimate vision of these spaces and their inhabitants. Working in parallel with CLINIC, the creators of Useful Photography have selected a range of vernacular photographs related to medicine. As with all of Useful Photography''s projects, this series comprises images originally made for utilitarian rather than aesthetic reasons. Instead of glossy photo-shoots, the work you see here is culled from scientific publications, communications documents and instruction manuals. Photographers include Oivier Amsellem Constant Anee, Eric Baudelaire, Geoffroy de Boismenu, Christophe Bourguedieu, Jacqueline Hassink, Albrecht Kunkel, Ville Lenkkeri, Matthew Monteith, Mario Palmieri, Stefan Ruiz and Useful Photography (Hans Aarsman, Claudie de Cleen, Julian Germain, Erik Kessels, Hans van der Meer).

Kult Books El Retrato de tu Ausencia
Book SynopsisDuring a period of six years Alejandro Morales collected more than 500 photographs depicting bodies published his local newspaper P.M. in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico. The time of extreme violence made Ciudad Juárez among the most violent cities in the world, marked by the large number of intentional homicides committed in its streets. The limits of what the press could publish were blurred as it was so common to find oneself in the middle of a shootout or come across an abandoned corpse. Morales removed all the corpses that he found in the photographs in the P.M. Newspaper by manually erasing them with a gum eraser. Morales approached the newspaper from its name, understanding it as a Post Mortem space. When what was supposed to be in the image no longer appeared, the void that was left opened up a chance to think about what was actually happening. The softness of the eraser, the duration of the erasing process and its ritual connotations confront the immediacy and brutality of these cases

Kult Books Notes for Our Legacy
Book SynopsisBillboards are strategically set up in high traffic areas, designed to catch our attention. They are positioned atop buildings, along highways, and in market squares. Even when devoid of advertisements, they continue to draw one's gaze. The sculpture-like metal frames and blank canvases remind of things that have come and gone. Even in the absence of advertising content, a billboard remains a medium of communication. But when empty of advertisement, what message does it convey? Janne Riikonen's book Notes For Our Legacy serves as a statement against the unsustainable culture of consumption and the values typically conveyed on billboards. For as long as I can recall, I've been bothered by advertisementsboth their appearance and the values they most often promote. I wish I didn't have to see them. The primary message of advertisements is very clear. Whether it's a product, a service, an education, or a political agenda; they aim to sell something. Yet beneath this primary message lies
