Dudi Hasson, as far as close
Noam Noy
Libraryman Co., 2021

“Addicted” to photography from a very young age, autodidact photographer Dudi Hasson (b. 1981, Israeli) embarked on his photographic journey at the age of 16. Ever since then, his work has explored the thin line between intimacy and alienation. Inspired by people and places, Hasson is continually curious about the nature of relationships—whether they’re between the camera and its subject, between the subjects themselves, or internally between himself and the camera. Dudi strives to capture rare moments of the “in-between”, i.e. in between love and hate, joy and misery, truth and lies, far and close.

As Far As Close is a selected collection of Hasson’s portraits from different times and places, gathered as a mosaic of unexpected moments best demonstrating his unique aesthetics and point of view.
The book contains a poem, in Hebrew, written by poet Noam Noy (b. 1988, Israeli), alongside an English translation.

Carnival Strippers
Susan Meiselas
Steidl, 2022

From 1972 to 1975, Susan Meiselas spent her summers photographing women who performed striptease for small-town carnivals in New England, Pennsylvania and South Carolina. As she followed the shows from town to town, she captured the dancers on stage and off, their public performances as well as their private lives, creating a portrait both documentary and empathetic. Meiselas also taped candid interviews with the dancers, their boyfriends, the show managers and paying customers, which form a crucial part of the book.

Produced during the early years of the women’s movement, Carnival Strippers reflects the struggle for identity and self-esteem that characterized a complex era of change. Carnival Strippers Revisited and Making Of come together in a slipcase. Making Of includes color images from Carnival Strippers that have never been printed and/or published before, along with ephemera material collected by Meiselas at the time she developed the project.

Crowns: My Hair, My Soul, My Freedom
Anne Morin, Sandro Miller
Skira, 2021

In Crowns: My Hair, My Soul, My Freedom American photographer Sandro Miller (born 1958) celebrates the social endurance, cultural heritage and self-expression of Black women through their hairstyles. In this series of portraits, each subject is posed in front of either a strikingly black or vibrant geometric background that serves to highlight the models’ skin tones and accentuates their ultra-stylized hair, whether a halo of bright gold curls or crimson locks swept into an elegant bun. Each image is based on the relevant model’s “hair story” and pays homage to her personal fashion sense, documenting the many unspoken ways in which Black women assert their autonomy through their physical appearance. In this project, Miller seeks to recognize and honor Black women’s creativity and beauty while celebrating their social endurance and cultural memory at the same time.

Body: the photography book
Nathalie Herschdorfer
Thames & Hudson, 2022

The body remains a battleground. Politicized, conceptualized and increasingly shared, our often-paradoxical relationship with the human form is nothing new, but finds itself heightened in the digitised, virtualised era of the ‘post-industrial’ body. No longer a tool but a work-in-progress, our bodily expectations bound from fantasy to reality, beauty to tyranny, art to commerce and curiosity to obsession, leaving us dreaming of other bodies and alternate lives.

Surveying a range of over 360 photographic re-presentations from the worlds of art, fashion, scientific and vernacular photography – including the work of Nobuyoshi Araki, Bettina Rheims, Lauren Greenfield, Viviane Sassen, Cindy Sherman, Wolfgang Tillmans, Daido Moriyama, Sally Mann, Pieter Hugo, Juergen Teller, Sølve Sundsbø and Daniel Sannwald – Body explores what our imaging of the human form, and the ways in which those images have been used and shared, might reflect of our relationship to the body. Supporting the broad range of photography is an essay by the psychologist Professor David Sander, Ph.D., discussing the neurological representation of our own bodies.

Martin Chambi: Photography
Martin Chambi, Jan Mulder
RM, 2022

Of Indigenous origin, Peruvian photographer Martín Chambi (1891–1973) dedicated a large part of his life to photographing the Peruvian Andes, reclaiming the pre-Hispanic past through images of Inca ruins and portraits of life in Andean communities in the early 20th century. Chambi’s work brings a new perspective to photography of the time, highlighting the emerging Indigenous discourse that was starting to gain force in South America. While he was not the first to photograph Machu Picchu, Chambi was among the first Peruvian chroniclers of the Inca citadel. Drawing on Machu Picchu’s geometric forms, Chambi’s work entered a new phase in which shape, space and texture build toward more complex compositions and starker contrasts, making him an emblem of contemporary documentary photography in Peru and Latin America. This gorgeous clothbound volume compiles 170 of Chambi’s black-and-white images.

Movie Theaters
Yves Marchand, Romain Meffre, Ross Melnick
Prestel, 2021

They are in every American city and town—grandiose movie palaces, constructed during the heyday of the entertainment industry, that now stand abandoned, empty, decaying, or repurposed. Since 2005, the acclaimed photographic duo Marchand/Meffre have been traveling across the US to visit these early 20th-century relics. In hundreds of lushly colored images, they have captured the rich architectural diversity of the theaters’ exteriors, from neo renaissance to neo-Gothic, art nouveau to Bauhaus, and neo-Byzantine to Jugendstill. They have also stepped inside to capture the commonalities of a dying culture— crumbling plaster, rows of broken crushed-velvet seats, peeling paint, defunct equipment, and abandoned concession stands—as well as their transformation into bingo halls, warehouses, fitness centers, flea markets, parking lots, and grocery stores. Using a large format camera, the photographers’ carefully composed images range from landscape exteriors to starkly beautiful closeups. Presented here in a gorgeous oversized format, exquisitely printed with superior inks and spot varnish, this illustrated eulogy for the American movie palace is certain to become a modern-day classic.

Robert Polidori, 60 Feet Road
Robert Polidori
Steidl, 2016

In his new book, Robert Polidori presents us with a large-format photograph of a city block in an improvisational, auto-constructed settlement in Mumbai, India. In an almost seamless progression that appears to expand like an accordion or folding-screen, the photograph is composed of multiple images imperceptibly overlaid and welded together in a complex process to form a panoramic view. Applying remote sensing techniques that are normally used in space cartography to street photography, Polidori ventures a photographic attempt to come to terms with the phenomena of adjacencies, observing and beholding what's next to what. In this way he minutely scans the urban landscape, recording the precarious and temporary nature of the provisional and yet psychologically rich and in fact highly individualized dwellings.

In India
Mitch Epstein, Susan Bell, Ryan Spencer
Steidl, 2021

Between 1978 and 1989, Mitch Epstein made eight trips to India and shot tens of thousands of photographs. He also made three films there with his Indian wife, director Mira Nair. The photographs in this book are the result of Epstein’s unusual dual vantage in an extraordinarily complicated culture: through his Indian family life and work, he was both an insider and outsider. Epstein was able to enter a wide swath of subcultures that included a striptease cabaret, the Royal Bombay Yacht Club, Bollywood movie sets, an old-time Punjabi wedding band, and religious pilgrims both Muslim and Hindu. In India is the fruit of Epstein’s deep and extended experience of India, where separate worlds converged.

Amazônia
Sebastião Salgado
Taschen, 2021

Pendant six ans, Sebastião Salgado a sillonné l’Amazonie brésilienne et photographié la beauté sans égale de cette région hors du commun: la forêt, les cours d’eau, les montagnes, les peuples qui y vivent – un irremplaçable patrimoine de l’humanité.
Salgado s’est rendu auprès d’une douzaine de tribus indigènes organisées en minuscules communautés à travers la plus grande forêt tropicale de la planète. Il a témoigné de la vie quotidienne des Yanomami, des Asháninka, des Yawanawá, des Suruwahá, des Zo’é, des Kuikuro, des Waurá, des Kamayurá, des Korubo, des Marubo, des Awá et des Macuxi : de la chaleur de leurs liens familiaux, de leurs chasses et de leurs pêches, de leur façon de préparer et partager les repas, de leur merveilleux talent pour se peindre le visage et le corps, de l’importance de leurs chamanes, de leurs danses et de leurs rituels.

Fondé en 1998 à Aimorés, dans l’état de Minas Gerais, Instituto Terra marque l’apogée d'une vie d'engagement et de travail comme documentaristes culturels pour Lélia Wanick Salgado et Sebastião Salgado. Grâce à un programme scientifique de replantation et de pépinières, l’organisation a opéré une reforestation miraculeuse de cette région autrefois infertile, qui concourt à la mission que se sont fixé les Salgado: réparer les dégâts infligés à notre planète.

Vivian Maier

Anne Morin

RMN

Il aura fallu le hasard de la découverte de son corpus photographique en 2007 dans un garde-meuble aux États-Unis pour que le public puisse connaître Vivian Maier.
Elle naît à New-York en 1926. Cette passion qui l'habite et qui deviendra une activité presque quotidienne, l'élève aujourd'hui au rang des plus grands photographes emblématiques de la Street Photography, et la fait figurer dans l'histoire de la photographie aux côtés de Diane Arbus, Robert Frank, Helen Levitt ou Garry Winogrand. Son œuvre est constituée de plus de 120 000 images photographiques, de films super 8 et 16 mm, d'enregistrements divers, de photographies éparses, et d'une multitude de pellicules non développées, comme autant de trouvailles fascinantes.
Les scènes de rue et les quartiers ouvriers, là où elle rencontre la vie, constituent une des grandes thématiques de son œuvre. Au travers de nombreux portraits d'inconnus à qui elle délivre une fraction d'éternité en croisant leurs regards, Vivian Maier fixe un geste, une expression, une situation, la grâce de petites choses accessibles. Dès la fin des années 1950, Vivian Maier réalise des clichés en couleur, jouant des spécificités de cette nouvelle technique pour varier sa pratique photographique. Grâce à des archives inédites et à de nouvelles analyses scientifiques, cet ouvrage met en regard plusieurs aspects de sa création et apporte un éclairage inédit sur son œuvre.

Vanuatu
Bernard Sabrier
Steidl, 2020

As a child Bernard Sabrier was given a map of the Pacific by his father, and since then the archipelago of Vanuatu has remained in his imagination. Forty years later, Sabrier made the journey to Vanuatu and this book documents his experiences. Discovered by the Spanish in 1606 and claimed by the French and English in the 1880s, Vanuatu became a republic in 1980 and today subsists mostly on agriculture and tourism. Such facts inform our perception of Sabrier's pictures but are secondary to his project. These candid images depict the natives with which Sabrier has formed personal bonds and so is the realization of a childhood dream in an open-eyed, non-patronizing way.

Saul Leiter, In My Room
Saul Leiter
Steidl, 2018

The fruit of fantastic recent discoveries from Saul Leiter's vast archive, In My Room provides an in-depth study of the nude, through intimate photographs of the women Leiter knew. Showing deeply personal interior spaces, often illuminated by the lush natural light of the artist's studio in New York City's East Village, these black-and-white images reveal a unique type of collaboration between Leiter and his subjects. In the 1970s Leiter planned to make a book of nudes, but the project was never realized in his lifetime. Now, we get a first-time look at this body of work, which was begun on Leiter's arrival in New York in 1946 and honed over the next two decades. Leiter, who was also a painter, allows abstract elements into the photographs and often shows the influence of his favorite artists, including Bonnard, Vuillard and Matisse.

This book, accompanying the largest exhibition devoted to Madame d'Ora ever presented in the United States, includes sections focusing on the different periods of the photographer's life, from her early upbringing as the daughter of Jewish intellectuals in Vienna, to her days as a premier society portraitist, through her survival during the Holocaust.
