Résumé:
Please Listen I Have Something To Tell You About Is What is marks the first large-scale monograph by American artist Chris Johanson that began his career in the 1990s as part of the community of artists who based themselves in the bohemian community of San Franciscos Mission District (including Barry McGee and Margaret Kilgallen). Johansons first pieces were rough-hewn, painted on old wood he found in the street. However, over time his works have grown to include a diverse variety of media executed in large-scale installations. Johansons work comments on the age of consumerism as well as modern psychological phenomena such as self-help and psychotherapy. He creates a world where nudist dancers and emotionally centred people exist next to power junkies and corporate automatons, cunningly reflecting the duality of the human condition.
A legacy of ancient oaks

Résumé:
Mighty oak trees are a symbol of strength and resilience, thanks to their longevity and immense size. Some of the oldest of these trees are nearly a thousand years old. They have stood watch as empires rose and fall. But they also mark the passage of time on a smaller scale. Many who grow up near a favorite oak see it as an enduring presence in their lives—a magnificent(...)

Résumé:
Mighty oak trees are a symbol of strength and resilience, thanks to their longevity and immense size. Some of the oldest of these trees are nearly a thousand years old. They have stood watch as empires rose and fall. But they also mark the passage of time on a smaller scale. Many who grow up near a favorite oak see it as an enduring presence in their lives—a magnificent constant in their changing lives. Artist Mark Frith grew up near ones of these oaks and developed a closeness to one local character—the Great Oak at Nibley Green. It was this oak that inspired Frith to put graphite to paper and begin a remarkable series of large-scale oak drawings. Now, twenty-two of his works are collected here for the first time in "A Legacy of Ancient Oaks".

Résumé:
Walter Niedermayr (born 1952) is among Europe's finest contemporary photographers, a virtuoso in the portrayal of contemporary architecture and Alpine landscapes whose subtle handling of scale, diffuse light effects and desaturated color has been much imitated in recent years. Between 2005 and 2008, Niedermayr traveled in Iran, visiting Tehran, Isfahan, Yazd, Shiraz and(...)

Résumé:
Walter Niedermayr (born 1952) is among Europe's finest contemporary photographers, a virtuoso in the portrayal of contemporary architecture and Alpine landscapes whose subtle handling of scale, diffuse light effects and desaturated color has been much imitated in recent years. Between 2005 and 2008, Niedermayr traveled in Iran, visiting Tehran, Isfahan, Yazd, Shiraz and other smaller cities and historical sites. His travels spurred the undertaking of a new series examining Iranian architecture in its cultural and historical context. The resulting photographs reveal a wild mingling of east and west as older buildings jostle with colorful billboards, beltways and apartment blocks that look as if they could be located anywhere in the world. As with Niedermayr's famous winter landscapes, the majestic, pale color composition of these photographs transports them far beyond mere documentary, towards a sense of tremendous scale and implied political narrative.
