Résumé:
This is a publication about seeing versus not seeing, about gender, class and climate, a work about representation and reproduction. In short, a vehicle for perception and togetherness. After leaving an artist in residence in Japan spring 2019 and being back in Amsterdam Markus felt the need for silence and contemplation. Intuitively she built a studio setting in the forest and a photographic process began. It started with a found tarpaulin; the same kind of blue tarp that is a common sight in Japan and if one looks closer most often a shelter for someone homeless appears.

Résumé:
Documenting small time adventures and excursions around his house, bike rides through Europe, the vast and unyielding concrete miles of Shanghai and the old paint splattered floor in London where he sometimes sleeps, Nigel Peake's hand-drawn maps blend a healthy mix of order, the fantastical and reality. Both colourful and monotone and always highly detailed, these cartographic excursions are a fine lesson in liberation from objective rigidity.

"Landscapes of retreat" explores climate adaptation through portraits of land left behind as settlement patterns shift with a changing climate. Here, "landscape" refers to the earth alive with creatures and organisms, while "retreat" suggests human patterns are fluid and adaptable.

Résumé:
"Landscapes of retreat" explores climate adaptation through portraits of land left behind as settlement patterns shift with a changing climate. Here, "landscape" refers to the earth alive with creatures and organisms, while "retreat" suggests human patterns are fluid and adaptable. Featuring field studies from Nijinomatsubara Forest (Japan), Maule River (Chile), Niugtaq Village (Alaska), Langtang Park (Nepal), and Gaspésie Peninsula (Québec), the stories emphasize that valuing landscapes fosters community resilience. Cutting across history, fieldwork, and geography, "Landscapes of retreat" rethinks "change" as a shared pathway toward adaptive, collaborative climate futures. Winner of the 2024 J.B. Jackson Book Award from the Landscape Studies Initiative at the University of Virginia.

Résumé:
Two sisters, one stubbornly cheerful (Beatrice) and one relentlessly grumpy (Magnolia), live in a drafty old house with a family of helpful spiders. When Beatrice is gifted magic yarn from a giant forest spider obsessed with sustainability named Bog Myrtle, she and the spiders set to work knitting up a perfectly warm sweater. But greedy Magnolia sees only the opportunity for profit, and quickly converts the old house into a magic sweater factory. The exhausted spiders are driven to strike, and Bog Myrtle is not pleased . . . "Bog Myrtle" is a witty modern folktale that touches on themes of capitalism, environmentalism, labor rights, and being a nice person.

Résumé:
The Dutch office of Strootman Landscape Architects is extensively profiled in this gorgeous monographic publication by C3. The book is divided by chapter into the themes most relevant to the practice: Garden & Park, Forest & Park, Re-use, Historico-cultural Landscapes, and Living in Water Landscapes. Tackling issues such as planning versus design, spatial solutions in an urbanised world, accommodating natural forms and systems, and the pursuit of the sublime, Strootman presents itself as formally rooted in the history of the Dutch landscape while simultaneously applying contemporary ecological and spatial strategies. Included are a variety of notable projects from both within the Netherlands and across Europe.

Résumé:
A photograph of an image of a woman with a triangular slice where her eyes should be, a two-page aerial shot of a forest, a train coming straight at us: Bertrand Fleuret's artist's book Landmasses and Railways juxtaposes such enigmatic and striking black-and-white images to create a pleasantly unsettling, difficult-to-decipher narrative. Edited by photographer Jason Fulford, whose own influential publications are helping to define a new generation of photobooks, this exquisitely designed 200-page volume is dreamlike, taking us on a journey through rural and urban landscapes, construction and decay, chaos and clarity. Bertrand Fleuret, currently based in Berlin, was born in Versailles in 1969.
