"Gebundenes BuchDas Besondere an Boris Mikhailov als ,Büchermacher' ist, dass er die Fotografie in Sequenzen und Abfolgen, in Zwischenräumen und Schnitten, in den Formen der Montage denkt und entwickelt. In der Zusammenschau ergeben die häufig nur in einem Exemplar existierenden originalfotografischen Bücher und Buchentwürfe eine Retrospektive ganz eigener, intimer Art. Auf jeweils 128 Seiten werden die Künstlerbücher "Krymskaja Fotomani ..."
"On 20 November 1969, German photographer Heinrich Riebesehl (born 1938) visited the premises of the Neue Hannoversche Presse, where he photographed people in the elevator using a more or less concealed camera for five hours and 35 minutes. This book gathers the results for the first time."
"As a young photographer Maria Sewcz created a series of radical photographs of Berlin's east side. The Reichstag, Rathaus, Alexanderplatz, Thälmann Memorial and the border with the west marked the limits of her urban topography. Made from 1985 to 1987, these bold images capture a cold and irreconcilable rage with the status quo at this period of transition. Inter esse is a Berlin tale in which recent German history finds expression. Exp ..."
"Man sieht nur selten jemanden nach einem Zug hasten. Uhren gibt es nicht. Alle warten: die Klofrau auf das Schichtende, die Lotterieverkäuferin auf den nächsten Glückssucher, die Rentnerin auf ihr Bier. Helga Paris?"

"Roman Bezjak For the past five years, Slovenian photographer Roman Bezjak (born 1962) has been traveling to Eastern Europe to document that region's rich heritage of socialist modernist architecture--a subject that is receiving increased attention as attempts to preserve these buildings are initiated. This volume gathers his findings."
"Born in Poland in 1938, Helga Paris has been based in Berlin since 1966, chronicling East Germany for more than three decades. Her photographs portray the melancholy of East Berlin corner pubs, streetcars, garbage truck drivers, teenagers and textile mill workers. These images are collected in this retrospective volume, alongside photographs of Georgia, Siebenbürgen and Halle."
"There is nothing cool or distant about Zoltan Jokay's portraits. Revolving as they do around themes of intimacy, closeness, and the sense of being touched, both literally and figuratively, his images sometimes seem anachronistic, but that is part of their unique appeal. Jokay's pictures are "self-images": forming a personal visual language, they are a tool through which the photographer can approach his own biography, through which he c ..."
"Intermission IIGebundenes BuchSascha Weidner (1976-2015) hatte den Blick für magische Momente, er wusste das Poetisch-Flüchtige auf Papier zu bannen. Dem Dokumentarischen enthoben, zeigen seine Fotografien Bekanntes aus gänzlich neuen, ungeahnten Perspektiven und überführen den Alltag in Traum- und Fantasiewelten. So wird etwa das orangegelbe Licht einer Straßenlaterne, das einen Ahornbaum beleuchtet, zu einem Goldregen, werden Unfallau ..."
"Description: Social Creatures: How Body Becomes Art presents obsessive kissers and young Iranian girls' dreams; it raises questions about altered ideas of human intimacy, about patterns of order in social structures, and about the meaning of the human being as a commodity. The human image, the view of self that shapes one's frame of action, appears to be in a constant state of flux. The destabilization of cultural, ethnic, and socio-pol ..."
"This monograph accompanies a solo exhibition at renowned Sprengel Museum Hannover, Germany, on the occasion of the 9th 'SPECTRUM' International Prize for Photography, awarded to Hannah Collins. The award pays homage to an artist whose work has decidedly extended the spectrum of photographic expression. The exhibition and publication provide a comprehensive introduction to Collins' complex photographic oeuvre."
"Both survey and artist book, TXT IMG brings together 41 projects by Munich- based German artist Katharina Gaenssler (b. 1974) from her first photo installation in 2003 to her latest project, Bauhaus Staircase, at the Museum of Modern Art, NY. Like her photo installations that involve hundreds of single images to create a large-scale work, the monograph is shaped by contrasting fragments and whole. All 407,954 color photographs she took ..."
"UMBO is considered the inventor of the image of the New Woman, the new image of the street, and photographic reportage per se. UMBO was a young artist plagued by self-doubt who became famous as a photographer almost overnight, and hence participated in all important avant-garde exhibitions of his time. This publication, which presents a selection of 200 works and numerous documents, is essentially based on UMBO’s estate. More than ..."
"Martha Rosler is one of the most iconoclastic and politically motivated artists of her generation. Most of the encounters that unfold in Rosler's works originate in seemingly ordinary scenes of domestic life or everyday activities such as shopping, watching the news, reading the newspaper, or traveling. The photographs gathered here--from the 80s to the present--shed light on the many ways in which our routines are governed by social no ..."
"After graduating from high school, Sophie Calle traveled around the world, working as a barmaid, erotic dancer, and dog trainer. Her Autobiographical Stories, presented here for the first time in a cycle of text- and photo-based work, were created in response to this seven-year hiatus. Also included are The Blind, Double Blind, and a remake of The Shadow. Essays by Knut Ebeling, Christine Karallus, Elisabeth Strowick and Inka Schube. H ..."
