Book Details: HardcoverISBN-13: 9781954119376112 pages; 50 Photographs8 x 10 inches$50 USForeword by Kim Weston Essay by Carol HenryAzita Gandjei’s childhood, steeped in science and storytelling, as well as in nature explorations, sparked her interest in how our understandings of reality emerge from abstractions of--and interactions with--the earth. The stark, natural light and wild landscapes of California compel Gandjei to create and orchestrate the surreal scenes within Mythoscape. Azita Gandjei followed her heart in 2018 by moving from the tech industry into photography. Her style draws from the motifs of early cinema and surrealism, inviting viewers to see the intersection of reality and myth in landscapes. She finds the hard natural light of California conducive to this style. In a return to her tech industry roots, she has begun to place her images in 360 views, using virtual reality (VR) as a means for immersive art. Gandjei is represented by Gallery House in Menlo Park, where she is one of the permanent artists, and by Ilkaa’s Gallery & Atelier in Columbus, Ohio. Kim Weston is a third-generation member of one of the most well-recognized families in modern photography, which includes his grandfather Edward Weston, his uncle Brett Weston, and his father Cole Weston. Kim Weston's experience with the art of traditional black and white photography was cultivated assisting his father and his uncle in their respective darkrooms. Carol Henry is a fine art photographer residing in Kentucky. Her photographic work has been exhibited in over 25 galleries and more than 150 exhibitions. She is a regular portfolio consultant for Palm Springs Photo Festival and was Ansel Adams' fine print specialist for signed originals for over three years, working with the Adams family. Additionally, she served as the gallery director at Post Ranch Inn in Big Sur, California.

On an unparalleled scale, entire towns have been built around making movies. Given film censorship codes in China, period films provide a safe and familiar format to tell stories based around “official” narratives. The movie sets, rivaling real-world cities and monuments in their scale, have themselves become destinations for domestic and international tourists. Despite the fiction, they bear witness to a dynamic and changing China. Mark Parascandola is an award winning photographer based in DC. His book Once Upon a Time in Almería was published by Daylight in 2017Michael Berry is a professor in the department of Asian languages and culture at UCLA

BOOK INFO Flexi, 9 X 7 In. / 188 Pages / 90 Color ISBN 9780989798136 List Price: $35.00 "...a raw, sensual and multifarious view of what a female orgasm is and, importantly, what it can be.", - The Huffington Post, September 9, 2014"...a joyful, raw celebration of female pleasure.",- Refinery29, December 11, 2014Photographs by Linda Troeller Compiled by Marion Schneider In this volume, New York-based photographer Linda Troeller (born 1949) collaborates with scholar and artist Marion Schneider to discuss and portray women's feelings upon orgasm through personal narratives and photographs. The project involves 25 women of different ages, nationalities, and cultural and social backgrounds. Schneider posed the following questions to them: "What does the word orgasm mean to you?" "Can you remember your first orgasm and show the feelings to the camera?" "Can you remember your strongest orgasm and show the feelings to the camera?" Troeller's portraits are juxtaposed with interviews with the participants. Boldly and tenderly countering the taboo associated with the topic, this frank and intimate examination of the female orgasm as told through the mouths of these diverse participants serves as a touchstone for women and men everywhere. This book continues the investigation into female sexuality begun by Troeller and Schneider's 1998 volume The Erotic Lives of Women, acclaimed in The New York Times Review of Books as "one of the gutsiest books of the decade."

BOOK INFO Hardcover, 8.75 X 11 In. / 128 Pages / 55 Color ISBN 9781942084167 List Price: $45.00 "...dreamy and mysterious images of some of nature’s most captivating scenery.",- Musee Magazine, October 6, 2016"...a photographic stream of consciousness that travels through lush flora, fauna, and tropical biospheres…”, - F-Stop Magazine, July 17, 2016Photographs by Alice Q. HargraveContributions byAllison GrantKendra PaitzRebecca SolnitSandra BinionRalph J. Mills Paradise Wavering is a photographic stream of consciousness that travels through a reservoir of memories. Alice Hargrave explores experiences that reflect on the passage of time and seeks the sublime in moments on the periphery of daily life. By interspersing the work she currently makes with re-photographed vintage source material from her family's archive of 8mm films and snapshots, she melds past and present, alluding to an uncertain future, where environmental angst pervades. The resulting curvilinear narrative is fractured, frayed, and stained in color, as are our memories, and photographic substrates themselves.Leading through prairies, mangroves and tropical forests, the photographs are inspired by the heroic landscapes of early travel photography, vernacular family pictures, and the first color processes such as Autochromes. They embrace, but also recontextualize, and reimagine the clichés of documenting family travels where photography's role is to harness exotic flora and fauna or "Kodachrome" moments from a moving car, her liberal and intuitive use of the vivid, visceral colors of recollection eclipses reality, inscribes emotion, and reveals how photographs literally color memory and perception. Color itself becomes a subject, leaving behind its mood and patina as a shroud.In addition to Hargrave's photographs, Paradise Wavering also features an essay by Allison Grant, an interview by Kendra Paitz, and two excerpts from Rebecca Solnit's seminal book Field Guide to Getting Lost.

They are not judgmental. They do not romanticize the city. They are not particularly joyous. Rather, they illuminate an urban environment as it is experienced by the everyday city dweller, documenting the march of time as elements of the city grow and fade." - Photobook JournalPhotographs by Patrick O'HareEssays by Tim Davis and Darran AndersonEvanescent Cities is a photographic exploration of the neighborhoods of Long Island City, Queens and Greenpoint and Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
