Résumé:
Louis Stettner is one of the last living members of the avant-garde New York School of photography of the 1950s, which challenged many of the long-accepted foundations of art form. His Penn Station series of the late 1950s represents some of his most important work, gathered here in a single form for the first time. The series is less a portrait of the building than a study of people at once in transit and in suspension.

Résumé:
Primordial Landscapes: Iceland Revealed explores the diverse and raw beauty of Iceland’s extraordinary landscapes through striking images by photographer and naturalist Feodor Pitcairn and the inspired words of geophysicist, author, and poet Ari Trausti Guðmundsson. This collection illuminates topographical phenomenon shaped and crafted by the most powerful natural forces on earth: rain and glacier melt form thunderous waterfalls and rivers that carve at the earth’s surface; arctic snow and ice peppering the land and sea with striking shapes and patterns, feeding the climate and water cycles; lava flows from active volcanoes that build vast, textured landforms where life can begin and take hold. These are the beautiful and extraordinary results of our planet’s most fundamental geological processes.

The images Jeff Wall has chosen for North and West explore the meaning of history and how we remember the cities we inhabit. The towns imprinted in our minds no longer exist. Urban landscapes constantly change but the remnants of the past remain and history’s influence never ends

The exhibition explores the layering of time through historical artifice. History here is considered as a constructed sphere, constantly in flux, simultaneously being buried and excavated. In a world of hyper-mediation, how can one construct a sense of an individual history? How does it relate to the sediments of culture?

Résumé:
Margherita Spiluttini (*1947) is one of Europe’s most renowned architectural photographers firmly anchored in an art context. Dovetailing commissioned works with freelance work since the early 1980s Spiluttini has produced a body of work characterised by a meticulous, clear-cut and unpretentious imagery and an approach to architectural and landscape motifs that is always considered, in terms of both content and medium. The buildings and structures depicted by the artist are showcased not in spectacular views or in isolation for advertising effect, but always in the context of their everyday surroundings. The book accompanies the same-named exhibition conceived specifically for the Landesgalerie Linz in co-operation with Die Photographische Sammlung / SK Stiftung Kultur, Cologne. It focuses on the visual perception of architecture as a constructed space and place.

Résumé:
On May 17, 1957, Lee Friedlander was given full access to photograph the participants of the Prayer Pilgrimage for Freedom in Washington, D.C. This extraordinary event, organized by Mr. Rustin, as well as A. Philip Randolph, Roy Wilkins and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., brought together many of the great thinkers and leaders of the period, and was a pivotal moment in the Civil Rights Movement. Friedlander's photographs depict the famous individuals at the event—Mahalia Jackson, Ruby Dee, and Harry Belafonte among many other luminaries of the African-American community—but they also pay particular attention to the 25,000 men, women and children who gathered to give voice and energy to the ideas embattled by the movement.

Résumé:
Sidewalk Salon is a multidisciplinary exploration of Cairo's dynamic urban spaces as portrayed by its thousands of street chairs, local fiction, interviews and poetry. The images, gathered over three years and organized into two sections - walks and series - document the creativity and small improvisations that give Cairo its distinctive character and identity. Strictly speaking, the book is a photographic essay of original chairs, but in a larger sense it reveals the material and human dimensions of the vibrant and extemporaneous layer that exists between this city's buildings and its streets. In addition to over 400 Polaroid images, the publication features fiction and poetry commissioned from Egyptian writers, plus interviews with street chair owners.

Résumé:
In 2003, Frank Gohlke and Joel Sternfeld were commissioned to photograph one of the densest concentrations of ethnic diversity in the world, the borough of Queens in New York City. After more than a year of photographing everything from corner bodegas to the borough’s boundaries, Gohlke and Sternfeld had not only captured the complicated dynamic that sustains Queens and its myriad communities; they had also evolved a unique theory of landscape photography in which landscape is a visible manifestation of the invisible emotions of its inhabitants. The collection inherits the strength of each photographer’s eye. Gohlke’s Queens consists of streets, houses, fences, gardens, parklands, shorelines, and waste spaces, the territory where human arrangement contends endlessly with the forces that undo it: unruly vegetation, weather, rot, decay, and the “creative destruction” of a voracious commercial culture. Sternfeld focuses on the indigenous shops, restaurants, mosques and temples that make a walk in Queens feel like a walk in Thailand, India or Peru—or all of them at once. Often tucked into homes or converted factories, these places signify a home country, or perhaps a home country that exists more in the mind than in actuality. In conjunction with an essay by the acclaimed writer Suketu Mehta, this book is a powerful instrument for understanding a landscape that seems to defy interpretation. Gohlke and Sternfeld successfully make the dizzying patchwork of Queens accessible and visible.
