Résumé:
British photographer Jem Southam (born 1950) is not short on tenacity; he patiently observes the topographical changes at a single location, revisiting a site over months or even years. Sometimes the recorded modifications are driven by man, as seen in his The Pond at Upton Pyne series, which charts a village pond as it is transformed by successive periods of neglect and attempts at landscaping. At other times, the transformations seem less steered by humankind, but still suggest a delicate balance between nature and man, decay and renewal. Southam uses a large-format camera, which produces 8 x 10 inch negatives, in order to attain an extreme degree of detail. While the enlarged prints reveal a captivating wealth of information, smaller "contact prints"—made by placing the negative directly onto the photographic paper—achieve a contrasting intimacy; both affirm Southam's acute sensitivity to place, superbly represented by this handsomely bound monograph.

Tod Papageorge : opera città
$68.00
(disponible sur commande)
Résumé:
In Opera Città, Tod Papageorge pays homage to Rome and the act of flanerie. He strolled though the city, at first without any aim, and then almost systematically, through various neighborhoods, parks, train stations, suburban avenues and the city center. Through his lens, the much-photographed city could be any urban area, filled with ordinary people living their lives.

Collectors, businesses or commercial galleries that rented the space were allowed to do whatever they wanted, provided they not only took on the costs of the exhibition, but also a share in the overall project budget for operating costs, attendants and publicity. A creative approach to the current economic climate, Carte Blanche was primarily an investigation into the changing relationship between art and commerce, public and private.

Résumé:
Reference monograph devoted to a radical pictorial work closer to the subject that is simultaneously a reflection on the photographic practice itself: all series of photographs of objects since 1989 (guitar amps, safes, tables listing, writing desks, lithographic stones, electrical panels, canvas versos...), with two essays. Monographie de référence sur un travail pictural au plus près des choses en même temps qu'une réflexion sur la photographie elle-même : les séries de photographies d'objets réalisées depuis 1989 (amplis, coffres-forts, tableaux de cotation, écritoires, pierres lithographiques, tableaux électriques, versos de peintures...), avec deux essais. Cet ouvrage amplement illustré montre dans son ensemble ce qui est une véritable entreprise de saisie – de capture – des objets. Deux essais situent l'importance de cet œuvre dans la création actuelle : Eric de Chassey propose un éclairage historique sur ses développements les plus récents tandis que Catherine Perret en relève toute la portée et la profondeur théoriques.
