Summary:
In the separate lexicon, installed at the beginning of this well conceived photographic book, Vallhonrat provides nine notes on how the images should be interpreted. Among them it is clear that his photographs explore ‘objects, places and actions,' along with ideas such as belonging, identity, and the processes of construction and transformation. Furthermore, these actions, objects and places shown in the images ‘find themselves in a no-mans land between reality, dreams and the fantasy found in children's stories.' Rich and mysterious, the 45 full colour photographs come printed, uninterrupted, one on each double page.

Summary:
Through Judy Natal’s photographs, the Neon Boneyard becomes a dynamic archaeological site that brings Vegas’s past to life in startling ways.

Summary:
Swiss photographer Tom Haller has gained wide recognition for his work in portraiture and reportage. Less well known, but equally arresting, are the landscapes Haller has produced during his travels throughout the United States over the course of nearly three decades. His photographs of America—of prairies, mountains, roads and the buildings lining them, motels, stadiums, shops, and abandoned cars—display a traveler's detached, inquisitive, perspective, with Haller directing his gaze at subjects while simultaneously depicting both the promise of these landscapes and the limits to the dreams they inspire.
