Summary:
Ce livre rassemble pour la première fois le travail en Irlande d'Akihiko Okamura à l'occasion de la numérisation de ce corpus quasi inédit, accompagné de textes qui contextualisent son travail dans l'histoire de l'époque et celle du médium photographique. Pendant les Troubles, la lutte pour l'indépendance qui dura de 1969 à 1998, l'Irlande du Nord a attiré un grand nombre de photojournalistes étrangers venu documenter les événements. Certains d'entre eux ont trouvé un sujet qui les touchait personnellement, les poussant à dépasser les codes du photojournalisme. C'est le cas du photographe japonais Akihiko Okamura qui a réalisé un travail unique et remarquable en couleur dans les premières années du conflit, et qui est curieusement encore méconnu aujourd'hui. Né à Tokyo en 1929, Akihiko Okamura s'est distingué comme l'un des grands photographes de guerre de sa génération, opérant notamment au Vietnam au début des années 1960. Il est toujours très respecté au Japon, mais son travail et son expérience en Irlande, essentiels à la fois dans son oeuvre et pour sa vie personnelle, ont été peu explorés. Okamura est arrivé sur l'île avec sa famille en 1969 et y a vécu jusqu'à sa mort en 1985. Il a photographié son quotidien et les alentours, mais a vite été pris d'intérêt pour le nord du pays et sa lutte pour l'indépendance. Son attachement à ce pays et à son histoire l'ont conduit à produire l'une des oeuvres photographiques les plus significatives réalisées par un photographe étranger, mêlant à la fois cette simplicité du cadrage et du sujet, très japonaise, à une force dans la composition pour des sujets plus violents. En Irlande, il s'est éloigné du photojournalisme pour développer un témoignage plus personnel.

Summary:
"Glasraum" is the result of a collaboration in the fields of architecture and photography. Set within the interiors of a remodelled office by Ganko, with pictures by Louis De Belle, the book occupies a liminal state between documentation and composition. Favouring a certain classicism in the strand of the modern tradition both authors identify with, Glasraum explores the deliberate ambiguities embedded in a seemingly aloof approach to the construction of both space and image.

Summary:
''Workbooks'' is an extensive book that gathers together a creative lifetime of collecting, imagining, sketching and recording by British artist Nigel Shafran from 1984-2024. Below, writer David Chandler reflects on Shafran's Workbooks. ''These working documents are informal books, but, partly in preparation for decisions that will later define the actual publications, they are carefully assembled and richly embellished. Each is filled with drawings, notes and bits of everyday ephemera as well as photographs, and each has a particular aesthetic, with an easy feeling for material craft as well as visual simplicity and clarity that is characteristic of Shafran’s intuitive organising principles and his entire working process''.

Summary:
Flour, water, and salt. These are the sole ingredients that make Hardtack: a Civil War-era food long-associated with survivalism, land migration, and its extremely long shelf life. Drawing from this history as a metaphor for the long-enduring nature of Black culture and traditions, Hardtack uncovers the roots that tie Fortune's native landscape to the conflicts and nuances associated with the post-emancipation Americas. In the follow-up to his breakout monograph I can't stand to see you cry, Fortune borrows from the language of vernacular and archival photography to interrogate the historical relationship of his community to photography; rooted in the landscape, Fortune often uses sites of historical and cultural interest as a guide but not a subject, implying the deep ties that bind modern Black communities resiliently to their regions, in the face of both adversity and joy.

Summary:
In ''Relative Moments'', Deanna Dikeman chronicles ordinary moments of her family’s activities. From gardening to cutting cake, from filling up the bird bath to mending a piece of clothing, from mowing the lawn to picking rhubarb, one gets to discover an everyday that might otherwise go unnoticed. In this book, which was generously edited and sequenced — 200 photographs in total — one is not only meant to see the moment shot in one photograph, but all the moments that compose the story. This project captures a visual history of the photographer family’s life, yet, there is an ongoing narrative embedded in these photographs that conveys larger, more universal truths about American culture, familiarity, and the endless source of everyday wonder that surrounds us.

''Extérieurs. Annie Ernaux et Photographie'' rassemble les écrits célèbres d'Annie Ernaux, lauréate du prix Nobel de littérature, avec des photographies de la collection de la Maison Européenne de la Photographie par des photographes tels que Harry Callahan, Claude Dityvon, Dolorès Marat, Daido Moriyama, Janine Niépce, Issei Suda, Henry Wessel et Bernard Pierre Wolff. Reprenant la démarche artistique unique d'Ernaux consistant à "décrire la réalité comme à travers les yeux d'un photographe et à préserver le mystère et l'opacité des vies que j'ai rencontrées", ce projet de l'écrivaine et commissaire d'exposition Lou Stoppard dévoile les manières profondes dont l'image écrite et visuelle peuvent s'informer et s'infléchir mutuellement. Ce faisant, il propose une nouvelle façon de penser la littérature et la photographie, et la manière dont des thèmes communs - tels que la classe sociale, le voyage, les stéréotypes sociaux et l'identité individuelle dans l'environnement urbain moderne - peuvent être explorés entre ces deux formes d'art.

Summary:
Kwai Shing West Estate is a residential complex in Hong Kong that is home to 18,000 people. It attracted the attention of filmmaker and photographer Pascal Greco because of its architecture and its atypical hillside construction. This book presents Greco’s ten-year investigation into the complex, during which he captured his strange fascination through both photography and film: walls, staircases, cables, pipes, neon lights, and not a soul to be seen. And yet, discreetly, life pulsates. Together with musician Lea Bertucci he produced an immersive audio-visual work, a tribute to the sometimes strange architecture of public housing but also to the loneliness experienced in such complexes.
