| Chan Chao: Echo
[Echo] is comprised of 28 portraits of female nudes; a far more common subject than that of his previous series, but one handled with the same grace, mutual trust between subject and artist, and masterful control of natural light, color and composition, for which the artist has become well known.... Echo is beautifully printed in process color on matt Japanese art paper, and case bound in natural Mafu. This first edition is limited to 500 copies, each with an original Type C print mounted on the front cover."—the publisher

John Divola: Seven Dogs
Due Spring 2008. Preorder now.
"The logic of "seven dogs" is based on two assumptions. First, if
one makes a group of photographs in an environment based on
the simple rule that a dog and man must be in each frame, a casual
description of the surrounding environment will result. And
second, if we accept that one year in a dog's life is the equivalent
of seven for a human, a man might reasonably expect a life seven
dogs long."—the publisher READ MORE

traveled to Coyoacan, Mexico City, to interview Manuel Alvaréz
Bravo. This was just three years before Bravo died, aged 100, and

Honey took over the reception room of a chi-chi poodle parlour

Lee Friedlander: Frederick Law Olmsted Landscapes
Due March 2008. Preorder now.
"A natural chronicler of all things uniquely American, photographer
Lee Friedlander here puts his lens to the work of Frederick
Law Olmsted (1822-1903), designer of many of this country's most
iconic public landscapes and the father of North American landscape
architecture. Olmsted was responsible for a staggering
number of America's greatest parks, including the Niagara reservation
(North America's oldest state park), Washington Park, the
Biltmore Estate, the U.S. Capitol building landscape and entire
parkway systems in Buffalo and Louisville. His most famous work
remains New York City's Central Park, a pioneering egalitarian gesture
that, at the time, was very unusual for its ready accessibility."—the publisher READ MORE

cities."—the publisher READ MORE
