In-between territories is a collection of 131 photographs, most of them previously unpublished, produced by Gabriele Basilico over the course of his career, from the late 1980s up to the first decade of the 2000s and beyond. The book, edited by Filippo Maggia, approaches the extensive artistic body of work left by this Milanese photographer from an angle that has received little consideration until now. Basilicös in-between territories are physical spaces and seem almost tangible to the gaze, but they are also mental spaces, induced in the observer by the voids, the absences determined by pauses and silences in the visual construction of the image. The depth of the light and the choice of perspective adopted by Basilico help to determine the equilibrium of shape between the volumes, inducing the right interpretation of the image, through that act of suspension and contemplation that the photographer often emphasized as a fundamental moment in observing the landscape, of whatever kind it may be and however it presents itself.

(Please scroll down for english)Volker Hinz (1947-2019) war einer der großen deutschen Fotografen des 20. und beginnenden 21. Jahrhunderts. Die Bilder für den zweiten Band »Carrousel«, der von seiner Frau Henriette Väth-Hinz herausgegebenen Buch-Trilogie, hat er selbst für eine Ausstellung im Jahr 2015 ausgewählt. Sie entstanden hinter den Kulissen unzähliger Modenschauen - vor allem in Paris, wo er dank seines Tickets als Stern-Fotograf Zugang zu Bereichen hatte, die normalen Fotojournalisten verschlossen blieben. Die Pariser Bilder, die zwischen den 1970er und 1990er-Jahren entstanden, werden ergänzt durch Aufnahmen aus Mailand, Florenz, London, New York, Peking, Shanghai, Moskau und Hamburg. Sie gewähren uns einen Blick hinter die Kulissen der Haute-Couture-Szene und zeigen Modeschöpfer mal privat, ganz »ungeschminkt«, aber auch in ihrer Funktion als Kunstfiguren. Von Karl Lagerfeld bis Thierry Mugler, von Yves Saint Laurent bis Claude Montana und Armani. Volker Hinz beobachtete viele der legendären Designer seiner Zeit. Seinem Stil treu bleibend, ließ er sich von der glitzernden Model- und Modewelt nicht beeindrucken und schaffte es, sehr persönliche, unverstellte Momente festzuhalten.Die Gestaltung dieses Buches ist an den Magazinstil der 90er-Jahre angelehnt: Wie im Dia-Karussell sind die Bilder aneinander collagiert und ermöglichen es dem Betrachter so, tief in die große Zeit der Modewelt, Couturiers und Supermodells einzutauchen._________________________________Volker Hinz (1947-2019) was one of the great German photographers of the 20th and early 21st centuries. He himself selected the pictures for the second volume "Carrousel" of the book trilogy (edited by his wife Henriette Väth-Hinz) for an exhibition in 2015. They were taken behind the scenes of countless fashion shows-especially in Paris, where his ticket as a Stern photographer gave him access to areas that remained closed to ordinary photojournalists. The Paris images, taken between the 1970s and 1990s, are complemented by shots from Milan, Florence, London, New York, Beijing, Shanghai, Moscow, and Hamburg. They give us a glimpse behind the scenes of the haute couture scene and scene, while also depicting fashion designers-occasionally in private, completely "unadorned," but also in their function as major figures on the art scene. From Karl Lagerfeld to Thierry Mugler, from Yves Saint Laurent to Claude Montana and Armani, Hinz observed many of the legendary designers of his time. Staying true to his style, he was not impressed by the glittering world of models and fashion and managed to capture very personal, candid moments.The design of this book is based on the magazine style of the 1990s as in a slide carousel, the pictures are collaged together allowing the viewer to dive deep into the great era of the fashion world, coutouriers, and supermodels.

This artful book collects the black & white imagery of renowned photographer Magdalena Lily McCarson and the words of poet Zach Hively. Thirty photographs and thirty poems paired in conversation. From the Introduction:"When Magdalena and I decided to collaborate, one spring morning over breakfast in the desert, we set the arbitrary and entirely binding terms of our game. The point was explicitly not to plot and plan every piece. No waiting for the muses to bless us. No perfecting each photograph and each poem for months on end before releasing them into the world. The point was to create recklessly, even explosively, in a dense period of time. That feral attitude spilled out of the theme we chose to guide and inspire every piece for those two months. That theme survived as the title of this book: Wild Expectations."

Well-known for his long association with North Carolina Central University, his livelihood and professional career extended well beyond Durham, North Carolina.
