Résumé:
Shaun O'Boyle has been photographing ruined landscapes and buildings in the Mid-Atlantic region, for more than twenty-five years. This collection of photographs represents some of his best work. Modern Ruins begins with an introduction by architectural essayist Geoff Manaugh, who offers insight into why people are so drawn to ruins and what they might mean to us in a larger psychological sense. Brief essays by noted historians Curt Miner, Kenneth Warren, Kenneth Wolensky, and Thomas Lewis offer social and historical contexts for the sites documented in the book. It concludes with an interview with the photographer that touches on his fascination with ruins and explores some of the processes and procedures he uses to document them.

Résumé:
This book accompanies the exhibition ‘Botanical Pleasure’ at the Zeeuws Museum in Middelburg. Both the book and exhibition highlight the work of the contemporary artist Frank Bruggeman and his fascination with plants. For this exhibition Bruggeman has made a selection from the largely ‘forgotten‘natural history collection of the Royal Zeeland Society of Arts and Sciences. In addition he made a film of the Hertogin Hedwigepolder in the easternmost corner of Zeeuws-Vlaanderen. A third important component of the exhibition and book is a recently discovered herbarium from the end of the seventeenth century. There are remarkable similarities between the way in which dried plants are presented and the manner in which Bruggeman designs his flowerpieces, plantscapes and installations.

Résumé:
Metabolism Trip is a collection of photographs and short stories of Charlie Koolhaas’ journey along many of the remaining buildings of the Metabolist Movement. In the late 1950s a small group of young Japanese architects and designers joined forces under the title of "Metabolism". Their visions for cities of the future inhabited by a mass society were characterized by large scale structures. Charlie Koolhaas, a Dutch photographer and editor of UNIT magazine, traveled across Japan in 2009 to photograph how these architectural icons have survived and aged. What do their founding fathers and their inhabitants think of these buildings now? What Koolhaas found were triumphant and at times eerie constructions that had taken on a life of their own.

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.

From 1941 to 1944, the Polish Jewish photographer Henryk Ross (1910–1991) was a member of an official team documenting the implementation of Nazi policies in the Lodz Ghetto in Poland. Covertly, he captured on film scores of both quotidian and intimate moments of Jewish life. In 1944, he buried thousands of negatives in an attempt to save this secret record. After the war, Ross returned to Poland to retrieve them. Although some were destroyed by nature and time, many negatives survived. Memory Unearthed presents a selection of the nearly 3,000 surviving images—along with original prints and other archival material including curfew notices and newspapers—from the permanent collection at the Art Gallery of Ontario.

Résumé:
When the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris asked Ari Marcopoulos to curate an exhibition around their acquisition ‘'Brown Bag'’, a short film on skateboarders in New York that he made in 1993, he was given access to the museum’s collection of over 15,000 works. He looked for themes related to the body, injuries, and architecture, along with what he perceived as challenging and puzzling works. Some of the artists were already familiar, while others were new to him. The process was not so different from his process as a filmmaker and photographer: so much of his work is about finding things. This book is a new look at photographs from around the time Marcopoulos shot ‘'Brown Bag'’.
