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:
"Brutalist interiors" reveals the hitherto overlooked interiors of Brutalist and concrete buildings around the world. The book combines photography of select interiors with essays by leading architectural writers and academics on subjects ranging from childhood inside Montreal’s Habitat 67 to the interiors of Denys Lasdun in Ghana, Tadao Ando in Japan, and the use of Brutalist techniques in contemporary design. Photographs by leading architectural photographers such as Roberto Conte, Stefano Perego, Simon Phipps and Iwan Baan and essays written by Blake Gopnik, Ewan Harrison, Deane Madsen, Gili Merin, Naomi Pollock, Felix Torkar, Ljubica Slavkovic and Rixt Woudstra take readers inside the interiors of some of the world's most remarkable Brutalist and contemporary concrete buildings.
