Richard Kalvar has spent over fifty years observing humans through his camera lens, trying to understand the ambiguous and mysterious relation between outward appearances and inner feelings. Not always successfully.With Selected Writings he shifts his gaze from what people physically reveal to what they write. That should be much clearer, but is it? Kalvar delicately navigates his way though the fog of expression, bumping along the way into joy, anger, confusion, incomprehensibility, and meaning often turned awry. What¿s on offer here is a collection of bizarre and fascinating visual messages, both intentional and unintentional, cast out in the world The result is unexpected, and often very funny.

The America Series is her first monograph and is a collection of photographs, created 2021 ¿ 2022, while traveling from the East Coast to the West and back in an electric vehicle, made into a make shift studio. While charging the electric vehicle, Montmare encountered and photographed people from all walks of life, while discussing topics of the environment, hopes and dreams for the future. Not only is the population continuing to evolve as new immigrants make the US their home, the land is also physically changing, as a result of the climate crisis we are facing. The westward route is one of aspiration and opportunity — a reflection on the topic of immigration and diversity, both from the photographers point of view and her subjects — and includes Native, African American and LGBTQ perspectives and voices. The work touches upon urgent current topics: climate, sustainability, the energy crisis and the electrification agenda.Against a backdrop of a uniform man-made urban landscape, with the repetition of strip malls, fast food chains and billboards urging people to consume more, the work also highlights the economic difference between Americans that have, and Americans that have not, and where sustainability discussions sometimes seem like a luxury.

The first longterm appraisal of the photography of Daniel Schwartz. Daniel Schwartz's photographs explore human activities set against an immense range of political geography and cultural history, touching on such monumental themes as imperial warfare, ancient history, environmental collapse and the vanishing cryosphere. Tracings reveals a body of work that is humanistically motivated and anchored in reality, blurring the divide between photojournalism and art. Positioning Schwartz¿s work to date in the wider history of the medium, Tracings draws together themes tackled in five monographs concerned with cultural history, political geography and the environment published by Thames & Hudson between 1986 and 2017. Essays by Beat Wismer, Giovanna Calvenzi and Carolin Emcke examine the ways Schwartz¿s documentary photography intersects with the arts; look at photographic affinities and methods in Schwartz¿s work, analysing the narrative of his previous books; and study Schwartz¿s depiction of the individual at work, and how photographs of human activities are interwoven with photographs of nature. Tracings is not so much a retrospective as a project tracing and continuing an evolutionary line through all Schwartz¿s projects to date.

Over a period of forty years, Hé lè ne Binet has photographed both contemporary and historical architecture - this is the complete monograph of her work, with two extensive critical essays. Marco Iuliano details Hé lè ne Binet's background, from her childhood in the Italian fishing village of Sperlonga and in Rome, through her early ' discovery' of architectural photographer Lucien Hervé, to other significant influences, like the Architectural Association in London where she met Zaha Hadid. The essay highlights in detail Binet's approach to photography, her process and archive. Martino Stierli sets Binet's work within the conceptual framework of architectural photography, discussing whether an architectural photograph is an inventory of a building or space, a translation into a two-dimensional image or, rather, an image in its own right; an artifact that loosely relates to the original object or phenomenon. The two essays are followed by a catalogue of Binet's work, which is framed within a series of her recurring themes emerged through dialogues between the authors and the photographer.

"He doesn't bother me," Picasso commented of the photographerEdward Quinn, after the latter had first photographedhim at work in the ceramics studio in the early1950s. This was undoubtedly one of the reasons why Quinnwas allowed to accompany the artist with his Leica for over20 years from 1951 onwards during his time on the Côted'Azur: in the studio, in private with his family, with artistfriends, at the bullfight, out and about, with lovers or simplyat the hairdresser's. The Quinn Archive holds a largestock of photographs of great intimacy, showing Picassoin everyday life and documenting his idiosyncratic character,his humor, and his enthusiasm in an amiable andlight-hearted way.Edward Quinn did not use a tripod with his camera, nor didhe illuminate the room artificially; his main concern wasto capture genuine pictures. As a viewer, you find yourselfon eye level with the protagonists. Almost like in the streetphotography we know today, there is a captivating senseof the casual moment. This book is a magical selection ofphotographs from Picasso's everyday life and shows thefamous artist in many unexpected situations.From 1949, EDWARD QUINN (1920, Dublin-1997, Altendorf/Switzerland) lived and worked on the Côte d'Azur as a press photographer for international magazines such as Life and Paris Match. During his 20-year friendship with Picasso, he took more than 12,000 photographs of the artist. From the 1960s onwards, Quinn concentrated his work entirely on the art scene, portraying the likes of Max Ernst, Alexander Calder, Francis Bacon, Salvador Dalí, Graham Sutherland, David Hockney and Georg Baselitz.

Louise Amelie's documentary photo series is an artistic exploration of the global phenomenon of migration and its many facets, which are often ignored in European migration politics. Migration has always been an integral part of human experience and will continue to be. Yet in public discourse it is presented as an aberration, while the existence of nation-state borders is hardly ever questioned. On the globe, Kyrgyzstan nestles inconspicuously next to Kazakhstan and China, but on the ground the vastness and heights of the mountains seem endless. In contrast to the natural beauty, prefabricated housing estates spring up in the capital, Bishkek. Here lives a young population that, despite all the adversities of post-Soviet reality, faces the world with great confidence. In a collection of portraying texts and photographs that foreground the individual stories, the book is an expression of solidarity and empathy, and shows that migration can mean both an opportunity as well as the painful loss of a beloved Missing Member.The artistic focus of director and photographer LOUISE AMELIE (*1991, Berlin) is on documentary and street photography. Her series, shot in the USA between 2016 and 2020, have been exhibited internationally and have been awarded the German Photo Book Prize and the Belfast Photo Festival. Since 2021, she has been exploring the theme of post-Soviet identity and migration in Central Asia, spending two and a half months in Kyrgyzstan for this project.

Addressing the relationship between law and the visual, this book examines the importance of photography in Central, East, and Southeast European show trials.The dispensation of justice during communist rule in Albania, East Germany, and Poland was reliant on legal propaganda, making the visual a fundamental part of the legitimacy of the law. Analysing photographs of trials, this book examines how this message was conveyed to audiences watching and participating in the spectacle of show trials. The book traces how this use of the visual was exported from the Soviet Union and imposed upon its satellite states in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War. It shows how the legal actors and political authorities embraced new photographic technologies to advance their legal propaganda and legal photography. Drawing on contemporary theoretical work in the area, the book then challenges straightforward accounts of the relationship between law and the visual, critically engaging entrenched legal historical narratives, in relation to three different protagonists, to offer the possibility of reclaiming and rewriting past accounts. As its analysis demonstrates, the power of images can also be subversive; and, as such, the cases it addresses contribute to the discourse on visual epistemology and open onto contemporary questions about law and its inherent performativity.This original and insightful engagement with the relationship between law and the visual will appeal to legal and cultural theorists, as well as those with more specific interests in Stalinism, and in Central, East, and Southeast European history.
