Résumé:
"Into Stoas" is not a guidebook. It’s a mapping of Athens's neglected passageways – paths that connect streets and offer escape from the city’s stress and noise. It is an ode to a lost city of mixed use and to its diverse vernacular signs that still survive today. A call for presence at the “Commercial Triangle” of Athens, once a labyrinth ideal for inquisitive strolls, now undergoing blandification. An invitation to lose yourself in a city within a city, and keep these paths alive. This research project has a dual objective. To promote walking by revealing an alternative walking network in the heart of Athens and to document the images of the vernacular exit signs that constitute a part of the unarchived Greek design history. This second edition reflects on the transformation that has happened at the ''Commercial Triangle'' the last 12 years.

Résumé:
This catalog traces German photographer Wolfgang Tillmans' unique 2025 project at the Centre Pompidou, for which he was given a generous carte blanche. The result occupied the entire second floor of the Public Information Library, where Tillmans' experimental installation transformed the space, establishing a dialogue with the former library and questioning it both as architecture and as a locus for the transmission of knowledge. The work explores over 35 years of artistic practice through various photographic genres and constitutes another very personal representation of his universe, whose order and logic are activated in response to the library space. With 600 images, an index of the works alternates with numerous installation shots that show how the artist made this space his own, while a varied selection of essays by a younger generation of authors sheds new light on the various aspects of Tillmans' work.

Résumé:
Jerusalem is not merely a city; it is an idea. For millennia, it has drawn visitors of all faiths and social classes, each seeking to engage with its sanctity. This enduring allure has sparked repeated cycles of violent struggle for control, often prompting the symbolic relocation of Jerusalem to places far beyond its physical borders. Analogous Jerusalem is the result of a five-year photographic journey exploring these 'analogous' shrines across diverse landscapes. It traces a continuous topography of pilgrimage, where the sacred and the profane intersect in unexpected ways. A three-part essay accompanies the images, examining the transposition of Jerusalem’s holy sites to Europe, the virtual pilgrimage rituals practised by medieval nuns, and the history of photographic journeys. Together, the photographs and texts form a travelogue through places that may, paradoxically, feel more 'real' than Jerusalem itself.

Résumé:
In UKRAINE, photojournalist Eddy van Wessel documents a raw account of three years of war in Ukraine through (analogue) photography and firsthand testimonies. With decades of experience covering conflict zones, he focuses on what war means for those living through it – the soldiers on the front lines, civilians sheltering in devastated towns and cities, and those forced to flee. His images capture the visible destruction and the psychological and emotional toll of prolonged violence, making this book a visual and narrative testimony with a complex and layered depiction that is reflecting on the human cost of the largest war in Europe since World War II. It explores displacement, survival, and the boundaries of humanity in times of crisis. Where does humanity end and inhumanity begin? How do individuals maintain dignity and resilience under constant threat? What does survival look like when basic needs – and life itself – are no longer guaranteed?

Résumé:
In ''Terra Infecta'', Andrea Bagnato tells an unfamiliar story about a well-known place. Since the early days of tourism, the cities and landscapes of Italy have been bywords for beauty and grandeur. But, at home and abroad, the same places have also been haunted by associations with disease and uncleanliness, often more to do with politics than conditions on the ground. In this gripping narrative study, Bagnato shows how the modern quest for sanitation shaped Italy’s urban and rural landscapes, propelling major transformations from the draining of the wetlands around Venice, to demolitions and replanning in Naples, to the expulsion of the inhabitants of ancient Matera. He argues that current north–south inequalities are founded on spurious medical narratives, and focuses on the real impact on the people caught in their ministrations. Ranging from Italian unification to the aftershocks of Covid-19, and drawing on architectural records, medical history, and the author’s own travels, ''Terra Infecta'' reveals the lived realities of grand schemes, traces of vanished communities, and forgotten histories of collective organisation and resistance.
