Summary:
This publication is a photographic essay that takes us through spaces of international airports, or more specifically, the spaces of these airports that are classified as “transit areas,” that is in between states and nations, although within them. Whereas a border is generally conceived of as a line between two territories, and not as a space in itself, the transit area is exactly such a space. In Geyer and Sander's passage through these areas, they investigate how these spaces, on the one hand, constitute and differentiate between territories, and on the other hand, spatialize the gap through a gestural, architectural, and linguistic vocabulary of hallways, doors, lines, checks, instructions, processes of identification, recognition, and namings that all lead to denied or granted passage. As the question of passage is central for the notion of a border, the book is conceived as a flip book: a number of still-images which, when flipped, gives the illusion of movement.

Summary:
A graceful, contemplative volume, Camera Lucida was first published in 1979. Commenting on artists such as Avedon, Clifford, Mapplethorpe, and Nadar, Roland Barthes presents photography as being outside the codes of language or culture, acting on the body as much as on the mind, and rendering death and loss more acutely than any other medium.

During the 1960s and 70s, thousands of monuments commemorating the Second World War – called 'Spomeniks' – were built throughout the former Yugoslavia; striking monumental sculptures, with an angular geometry echoing the shapes of flowers, crystals, and macro-views of viruses or DNA. In the 1980s the Spomeniks still attracted millions of visitors from the Eastern bloc; today they are largely neglected and unknown, their symbolism lost and unwanted. Antwerp-based photographer Jan Kempenaers travelled the Balkans photographing these eerie objects, presented in this book as a powerful typological series. The beauty and mystery of the isolated, crumbling Spomeniks informs Kempenaer's enquiry into memory, found beauty, and whether former monuments can function as pure sculpture.

Summary:
Demonstrating how cartography is a valuable instrument for urban research, this cartographic book reveals the impact of infrastructure on a region's development in an original manner. Bieke Cattoor has mapped and analysed the roads, railways and communications network of Belgium's Kortrijk region, overlaying them with historical and topical information. With this perspective, the varied elements in an infrastructural network are clarified, and Cattoor identifies how roads and railways form related patterns and lead to nodes. The book reveals the complexity of our layered urban landscape with a new and simple representational method, and suggests how this method can be deployed in urban research as a whole.
