Résumé:
This edition is the result of a strange detective story, initiated by photographer Michel Campeau. While clearing out his mother s house, Campeau discovered a strange image amongst her possessions: a piglet in a restaurant, being fed milk by a customer. Some time later, he stumbled across another, similar picture by accident. Intrigued Campeau decided to seek out more of these piglet mascots. His quest yielded over 200 images, the most striking of which are collected here. This is a book of obsessions; both Campeau's own and that of the original piglet snapper. All pictures are taken in restaurant Au Lutin Qui Bouffe in Montreal led by patron Mr McAbbie.

Résumé:
Le montage, tel que George Dupin le pratique, établit que tout lieu peut être lié à un autre lieu par voie métaphorique, à condition que la métaphore procède d'une parenté formelle ou historique. Les images rassemblées dans ce livre ont été prises sur une dizaine d'années, les dix premières années du vingt-et-unième siècle. Elles décrivent surtout des lieux, et des formes(...)

Résumé:
This is the first book of Sternfeld's largely unseen early colour photographs. In 1969 Sternfeld began working with a 35 mm camera and Kodachrome film, and First Pictures contains works from this time until 1980. Here Sternfeld develops traits that appear in his mature work: irony, a politicised view of America and concern for the social condition.

Résumé:
"What do you know about water? Only that it's everywhere differently." In 2000 Roni Horn published Another Water, an examination of the water of the River Thames through extensively footnoted photographs. This new edition of Another Water includes a new edit of the photographic aspect of the work. Water is a central theme for Horn: as a component of weather, a defining feature of her beloved Iceland, and as a beautiful, changeable element on which life depends. Another Water is an ode to the substance of water but also to its impact on identity and imagination: in Horn's words, "You can't talk about water without talking about oneself."

Résumé:
In Swedish Red, Eneroth examines the idea of the home as a perfect place, where life is totaly comfortable and secure, how fear, or the need for security, easily evolves into deep isolation. The images tempt us, and tell us to mind our own business at the same time.

For more than 20 years Kai Wiedenhofer has been taking photographs in the Middle East, a place where many journalists and photographers have covered the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

For more than 20 years Kai Wiedenhofer has been taking photographs in the Middle East, a place where many journalists and photographers have covered the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Yet Wiedenhofer is unique in that he concentrates exclusively on Gaza, and often remains there to take photos long after the media has moved onto more 'pressing' news stories. Wiedenhofer's images of crumbling ruins and maimed civilians are a powerful landscape of disquiet and destruction.

For many years respected gallerists Peter MacGill, Rudolf Kicken and Edwynn Houk have been collecting Aleksandr Rodchenko's photographs. This book is a curated selection of these images, mostly reproduced at their original sizes. The hallmarks of Rodchenko's inimitable Constructivist-influenced vision are here to see, regardless of whether he is photographing people, architecture or machinery: bold diagonals, abstract shapes and moving objects cutting through space.

Résumé:
Darkroom charts the physical and psychic terrain of photographic printing rooms while conveying their transition from the realm of pure functionality into historical artifact. Indirect portraits of both producer and product, Bartos' work explores the physical space linking artist to artwork and linking the tools of the medium to the signs of their use. As more darkrooms switch to digital printing or close shop altogether, we become more aware that the tangible elements of darkroom printing may one day be lost. Bartos' recent large-format work documents and explores in equal measure the visual language and ethos of that analogue printing culture before it slips beyond our experience forever. The acrid odour of chemistry, an uncanny stillness hanging in damp air - Bartos records the descriptive aspects and spatial constraints of the darkroom but also visualizes the lab as a site of limitless creative potential, invested with as much aura as a photographic print. Heroic and humbling at the same time, these portraits speak to the individuality of the workspaces and their inhabitants but also to the shared architecture of all darkrooms. Bartos presents us with the perceptual tools to know the darkroom as it is today and to remember it one day as it will have been.

Résumé:
Né en 1964 à Munich, Thomas Demand occupe une place tout à fait à part dans la photographie allemande. D´abord sculpteur travaillant sur le papier, il a appris la photographie pour enregistrer ses créations éphémères, avant que l´appareil photographique ne vienne occuper la place centrale de son processus créatif. Avec minutie, il crée devant l´objectif des maquettes de papier évoquant les architectures du XXe siècle. Cet ouvrage, réalisé à l´occasion de l´exposition Thomas Demand organisée par la Fondation Cartier en novembre 2000, rassemble ses créations réalisées entre 1994 et 2000. Les maquettes patiemment reconstruites dans l´atelier puis capturées par l´objectif constituent une réflexion inédite sur le statut de l´image et du simulacre.
