Summary:
In Alan Huck’s image-text book, "?I walk toward the sun which is always going down," an unnamed narrator wanders a city in the American Southwest, where their observations and encounters become catalysts for rumination on a wide range of subjects. Shifting between photographs of the city’s peripheries and an interior monologue written in first-person, fragmentary prose, this hybrid essay draws on the ambulatory works of writers such as W.G. Sebald and Annie Dillard, both of whom are incorporated into the network of literary and cultural references interwoven throughout the book’s text. Part metafiction about the working process of a photographer and part cross-disciplinary exploration of one’s relationship to a particular place, the author utilizes the essential indeterminacy of both photography and written language to craft an exercise in attention that moves seamlessly between the two mediums.

In loosely-collaged spreads that reproduce his construction-paper sketchbooks, Halpern takes pleasure in cognitive dissonance and unexpected harmonies, playing on a sense of simultaneous repulsion and(...)

Summary:
For the last fifteen years, Gregory Halpern has been photographing in Omaha, Nebraska, steadily compiling a lyrical, if equivocal, response to the American Heartland. In loosely-collaged spreads that reproduce his construction-paper sketchbooks, Halpern takes pleasure in cognitive dissonance and unexpected harmonies, playing on a sense of simultaneous repulsion and attraction to the place. "Omaha sketchbook" is ultimately a meditation on America, on the men and boys who inhabit it, and on the mechanics of aggression, inadequacy, and power.

Summary:
Vers 2005, Michel Campeau, sensible au virage numérique, entreprend de photographier les chambres noires, ces laboratoires qui constituent les fondements d’une photographie argentique en voie de disparition. Parallèlement, il collectionne la photographie vernaculaire et poursuit son travail créatif à travers la photographie des autres, constituant des collections de photographies anonymes ou de fonds qu’il déniche sur Internet ou au gré de ses déplacements. Il pointe ainsi comment l’époque triomphante du numérique se caractérise par le désintérêt pour les instantanés, les photographies de presse et de studio, les albums de famille, les diapositives..., que l’on jette aux oubliettes et détruit le plus souvent. Il effectue dans ce livre une sorte de montage temporel à partir de ces documents pour beaucoup déjà introuvables. Il mêle ses propres photographies à celles qu’il s’approprie, constituant une histoire de la photographie argentique tout en tissant sa propre autobiographie photographique.

For her series 'When Red Disappears' Elspeth Diederix, ventured into the secret gardens of the Dutch waters in Zeeland. The benthic flora and fauna of this chilly, turbid, green-grey water turned out to display an extraordinary visual richness that was a perfect complement to the large body of botanical work that Diederix has made in gardens and parks. Through Diederix’ goggles we glimpse an unspoiled underwater paradise, where life – in the form of shells, sponges, seaweeds, anemones and other organisms – shows its most colourful side.

Summary:
In this edition, Daido Moriyama publishes his snaps from a trip to Paris the previous year, in connection with the Paris Photo fair. While wandering in the Saint-Michel neighbourhood, rue Mouffetard, and the area around Moulin Rouge taking pictures, his thoughts gradually drifted to memories of 30 years ago, when he lived in Paris for a brief period. Moriyama reflects on his obsession at the time to open a private gallery, which for a variety of reasons failed to become a reality, so he ended up spending his days roaming the city’s streets instead. Picture this: a 50-year-old Japanese man with a camera, totally bewildered, who speaks no French and only some broken English.
