Résumé:
"Temporary discomfort" documents Davos, Genoa, New York and Evian/Geneva in a transitory state of emergency lock-down during the global economic summits (2001–2003). It combines different photographical genres: landscape photography, photojournalism and police photography, though here with the camera lens turned back at the security forces. But instead of street fighting and handshakes, Jules Spinatsch shows winter nights in Davos, complete with floodlighted barbedwire labyrinths. He shows Genova, a fortress empty as the Mediterranean noonday sky. We see freight containers, symbols for world trade, that are used as barricades against its foes. He invites us to scrutinize the streets in New York at night: road blocks, tents, and mobile transmission units: that seem surreally empty. He photographs the sleepy waking of the security guards. Spinatsch examines the waiting for the big event that appears as meticulously planned, down to the last detail.

Résumé:
For years, Andreas Züst, the late photographer, meteorologist, publisher, collector, and patron of the arts, took photographs of roundabouts in Europe, America, and Asia. Almost everything can manifest itself in the center of a roundabout, endowing this non-place with a meaning that we only casually glimpse while driving by: advertisements for local businesses, historical allegories, artworks, craft, monuments of ruling ideologies and religions—as though man could not abide a void. These wry photographs, with their delight in the absurd, are a prime example of an anthropology of everyday and popular culture inviting the reader to reflect on cultural and social differences, vernacular culture, and man’s horror of the void. At time of his premature death, Züst was preparing the publication of this book.

Résumé:
After the Lebanese Civil War (1975-1990) a massive rebuilding of the destroyed city of Beirut was undertaken. Solidere was formed with the goal of re-developing and reconstructing Beirut’s Central District into the finest city center in the Middle East. In 2002 the photographer Larry E. McPherson was commissioned to document the current state of the City Center. Between 2002 and 2004 he made four trips, spending a total of six months photographing in Lebanon. McPherson’s understated, visually affectionate photographs convey the natural beauty of Beirut’s setting between the Mediterranean Sea and Lebanon’s snow covered mountains. It also encompasses the archeological sites made into public areas, gardens, perfectly restored architecture from the Ottoman and French periods, and elegantly integrated new construction.
