Résumé:
Imagine a collection of perforated leaves in which organisms like insects, fungi, or bacteria existing in the foliage have created an array of patterns. Eva-Fiore Kovacovsky’s ''Feeding on light'' examines photosynthesis through experimental photography. Bringing the outdoors into her analogue colour darkroom, the artist captures the traces of the often symbiotic relationships observed between trees, insects, and the sun. The book takes the form of a field guide, with an extensive index of common and scientific plant names linking the hundreds of photograms, contact prints, and negative prints. Essays contextualise her work through biology, ecology, and philosophy.

Résumé:
The images of American photographer Mary Ellen Mark are icons of documentary and humanistic photography. Focusing her camera on the socially disadvantaged and those on the fringes of society, she told the stories of her protagonists without prejudice. In the context of the emerging women’s movement in the USA during the 1960s and 70s, and as a freelance photographer at a time when print media was suffering its first major crisis, Mark fought her way to the forefront of female voices in photojournalism. Encounters provides an expansive cross-section of the photographer’s full body of work. The book focuses on five iconic series that contributed significantly to Mark’s reputation: Ward 81 in which she photographed residents at an Oregon psychiatric hospital for women; a reportage on prostitutes on Falkland Road in Mumbai; a tribute to Mother Teresa’s charitable work; Indian Circus, documenting traveling circus families; and the long-term project Streetwise, in which Mark followed the life of Erin Blackwell (Tiny) for more than 30 years. For the first time, this book contextualizes these works within Mark’s œuvre and presents them alongside original magazine spreads and archival material—including contact sheets, letters and notebooks—to reveal the breadth of her accomplishments and singularly compassionate eye.

Résumé:
Often out of print, this new edition of Joel Sternfeld’s seminal book returns to the format of the original 1987 edition. All of the now classic images within it—alongside a group of never published photographs—examine a once pristine land stewarded by indigenous peoples who needed no lessons in stewardship, and a land now occupied by a mix of peoples hoping for salvation within the fraught paths of late capitalism. The result suggests a vast nation whose prospects have much to do with global prospects, a “teenager of the world” unaware of its strengths, filled with idealism and frequent failings.

Résumé:
Consisting solely of previously unpublished photographs, ''The Way Back'' is a deep dive through Bruce Davidson’s 60-year career. The book chronologically presents photos made between 1957 and 1992, showcasing Davidson’s exceptional versatility—from his earliest assignments to later seminal bodies of work including his year-long study of teenage members of a “Brooklyn Gang” (1959), his extensive coverage of the American Civil Rights Movement in “Time of Change” (1961–65), and his breakthrough portraits of the residents of a single block in Harlem in “East 100th Street” (1966–68). Series such as “Subway” (1980) and “Central Park” (1992) furthermore confirm Davidson as a quintessential chronicler of New York City. Regardless of his motif, what emerges through this retrospective is Davidson’s overt sensibility and empathy for his subjects, his commitment to documenting them in depth over time, and to capturing their beliefs, communities and subcultures. Unlike his peers who photographed events that constituted history, Davidson focused on the people within these histories.

Résumé:
This book is the first monograph to be published on the artist Laure Tiberghien. It brings together 84 prints, allowing the reader to gain an appreciation of 10 years of work and experimentation. Tiberghien is intrigued by the visual and plastic aspects of photography and enjoys exploring the inventive potential of this medium. She has developed a process avoiding the use of the camera that takes its place within a long lineage of experimentation in photography, which has notably given rise to Anna Atkins’ cyanotypes and Man Ray’s Rayographs. Produced through the combination of chemistry, light and time, her ''abstract'' photographs emerge from a masterful approach to composition, whereby colours are organized after having been tested first to obtain the desired tone relationships. The surface, in this case the type of paper selected, also plays a primordial role. For example, Cibachrome results in a ''wet'' effect and very dense colours whereas a metallic paper offers a more electric result. If at times she may leave things open to accident or chance, while giving life to shapes and colours Tiberghien has put in place a procedure, through her constant testing, that although far from mechanical affords her control over the result. All the pieces she produces in this manner are necessarily unique, another feature her art shares with painting. The book’s design, by the studio SP Millot, arrays the text of the essay by Erik Verhagen across its pages, in a way that punctuates the images just as the images propel the text.

Résumé:
''In 1991, I moved to Berlin for four years. The Berlin wall had just fallen but you could still see sections of it, and certainly still feel the divide between the Capitalist and Socialist states. Discovering Central Europe meant learning about some very dark history. The scars of Totalitarianism were deep, visible and raw from both the Cold War and the preceding Second World War. These photographs were taken in Montreal during the Fall and Winter of 2013/14. I wanted to find a common visual ground where, through historical images we've all seen, my memories could be shared. I revisited these memories influenced by the political climate and my fear of a rising wave of militant nationalism and the return of the Police State. This work reflects some of my concerns through the evoking of personal and collective memories and the linking of present with past, and local to global.'' Eric Tschaeppeler
