Summary:
"Dislocations" presents a contemporary update of Alex Webb’s long out-of-print and highly sought title, first published in 1998 as an experiment in alternative book making. This newly reimagined edition brings together pictures from the many disparate locations over Webb’s oeuvre, meditating on the act of photography as a form of dislocation in itself. Webb returned to the idea of dislocation during the pandemic, looking at images produced in the twenty years since the original publication—as well as looking back at that first edition. "Dislocations" expands a prized limited edition with unpublished images that speak to today’s sense of displacement. As a series of pictures that would have been impossible to create in a world dominated by closed borders and disrupted travel, it continues to resonate as the world resets.

Summary:
Sculptor Mark Manders installed an exhibition in the Woning Van Wassenhove, a post-Brutalist house designed by Juliaan Lampens in 1974. Although Manders hardly touched some spaces, he treats the bed, office, and kitchen as stages for aggregation in line with the original occupant’s mindset: drawings, architectural proposals, photographs, artworks, paint pots, and seemingly wet clay are piled on top of one another. In Manders’s words: "The aim is to show the house in a perfect situation. While some spaces derail when you zoom in on them, there is a kaleidoscopic element to it, as if you are looking inside a head."

The Danish-German photographer lived in Berlin from 2007 to 2014, where she was fascinated by the many gambling halls in the Berlin cityscape, most of which was located in the poorer neighborhoods.

Summary:
Red, violet, and blue colors permeate the images, but there’s more at play than just form and color. The Danish-German photographer lived in Berlin from 2007 to 2014, where she was fascinated by the many gambling halls in the Berlin cityscape, most of which was located in the poorer neighborhoods. Lass visited over 100 of Berlin’s approximately 500 small casinos and went on a picture hunt in these often closed and private environments. Here, she documented old machines, gaming tables, and the people who frequented them. Not to condemn, but to try to understand and take the players’ desires seriously: the hope for a better life and the longing for a bit of happiness. The project sheds light on a phenomenon that is relevant beyond the borders of Berlin – humanity’s eternal pursuit of (financial) happiness. At the same time, it is a visual investigation of the signs, symbols, and objects deliberately used to seduce. It is a photographic record of districts undergoing change due to crises and gentrification, and a documentation of places that have not been extensively explored until now.

Au début des années 2000, Jean-Christophe Béchet se lance dans l’expérimentation de la matière photographique. Né d’un intérêt pour l’accident dans l’image, ce plaisir a atteint son apogée dans une hybridation des techniques argentiques et numériques, dont ce livre collecte les résultats inventifs et saisissants. Depuis les photos voilées, amputées ou effacées des amorces de films que Jean-Christophe Béchet a commencé par rassembler, leur trouvant une qualité inattendue, jusqu’à ses tirages hybrides plus récents (à la fois argentiques et numériques), en passant par les diapositives et polaroids de sa série « Accidents » exposée aux Rencontres d’Arles en 2013, cet ouvrage revisite deux décennies d’expérimentation.

Summary:
''Dialect'' covers three years of state violence for nine young Moroccan migrants exiled in Kafka-esque limbo in Seville, southern Spain. When underage migrants enter the country illegally and cannot be verified as adults, their custody remains in the hands of the state – subjecting them to a lengthy process of up to three years to gain legal status. In this state of suspension and liminality, Beltrán engages with the body as a metaphor: using a carefully articulated language between photography, performance and collaboration, the weight of dead time is registered upon the shoulders of these young men, entering into dialogue with their memories, journeys, and the humiliating mundanity of waiting and migration. Alongside video works and choreographed dance, ''Dialect'' breaks new documentary ground to shine a critical light on practices of bureaucratic oppression.

Summary:
Ce volume marque les débuts éditoriaux de Patricio Reig, photographe hispano-argentin résidant à Milan, et met en lumière ce thème fondamental qu’est le portrait féminin dans son travail. À l’aide de la photographie, Reig expose l’équilibre subtil de son imaginaire féminin : la face comme l’évidence, l’envers comme son complément essentiel. Ainsi, un visage et la nuque, le derrière et le devant, la lumière et l’ombre se rencontrent pour donner vie à la magie d’un portrait. Patricio Reig imprime et fixe ses images sur des papiers spéciaux provenant d’Asie, pliés et repliés, et finalement plongés dans un bain de café et d’hyposulfite de sodium. Le résultat obtenu le fascine depuis ses premières expérimentations : les taches de café accidentelles deviennent des cicatrices qui caractérisent chaque photographie et, en conséquence, chacune des histoires racontées.
