| Open for Bidding: Michael Kenna Print from Le Nôtre's Gardens
"Through novel perspectives and unusual juxtapositions, his images convey the elements of surprise at play in these precincts. Wonder inhabits the recesses of the images; mystery is ever lurking at their edges. A miracle seems ready to happen..."—from "Lasting Landscapes: Michael Kenna, André Le Nôtre, and Grand-Siècle Gardens," Eric T. Haskell's introductory essay in Le Nôtre's Gardens.
Also on the block: Josef Koudelka, Mission Photographique Transmanche, Cahier 6 (SIGNED); Ed van der Elsken, Wereldreis in Foto's [Around the world in photos] (vols. 1-4); Avedon/Capote, Observations, and much more! |

Kelsie Buckley is an 11-year-old from Gulfport, Mississippi raising money for libraries destroyed by Hurricane Katrina.
"Kelsie's goal is to raise $10,000 for every Mississippi library destroyed by Katrina. There were seven. That's $70,000—a lot of books, especially for a girl who may never get to read a single one of them...That's because she has a rare disease that sometimes gets better—but usually gets worse, often ending in total blindness."
"She and her parents lost their home in the storm, too... Her reaction: ' We need to focus on the other people who need our help.' "—Steve Hartman,CBS Evening News

"There is power in the house, the house of cards that gamble against odds. And what odds they are today, with narrow philistine muscle, flexing mediocrity steroids all the way through the system, with short circuit, short sighted capital gains as the religion of the hour. [Founder Daniel] Power slugs towards the long ball of image culture and sometimes wins and often passes but all told is croaking, cranking, and shouting towards an reinvented future...Power has guts and blows strong into the winds of chance."—Larry Fink, author of Boxing, Runway, Social Graces, and The Forbidden Pictures

Thomas Roma: In Prison Air
"Holmesburg, closed in 1997, is perhaps most well known for a series of scientific experiments carried out on its prisoners over a period of twenty-five years. Sponsored by the U.S. Army, the CIA, the University of Pennsylvania, The Dow Chemical Company, and Johnson & Johnson, the experiments tested the effects of substances ranging from deodorants and hair dyes to LSD and BZ, a compound ten times as strong as LSD, to radioactive isotopes and chemical warfare agents."—the publisher READ MORE
