MIchael Levin's Portfolio of movement and stillness
"While I was born land-locked under a vast Prairie sky in Winnipeg Canada, it wasn't until I moved out to Vancouver that I became engaged with the potential for landscape photography. Perhaps it was simply my need to better understand my new surroundings — water, water, everywhere — that provoked my deeper interest in the way landscape can shape photographic reality. My creative imagination opened up at this time as I began to explore the many hidden treasures of the Pacific Northwest — even those more plainly in sight. While since this time I've begun to range more widely, both geographically and in my subject matter, my curiosity remains for visuals that are obvious and yet elusive, as clear and transforming as water."—Michael Levin |

Marco Citron's portfolio IRREGULAR
"'Irregular' is the name of a work in progress, a gallery of urban portraits, and a journey through the contemporary city. The subjects are examples of aging samples of industrial archaeology, contemporary structures designed by famous architects or quiet building standing in anonymity."—Marco Citron |

| The Road-Trip Revisited: Hiroshi Hamaya's American America
During 71 days in 1967, Hiroshi Hamaya drove over 17,000 miles through 35 of the lower 48 states in an Oldsmobile Jetstar 88. The images, organized by state, have the feel of an inquisitive anthropologist gazing upon unfamiliar settings and customs for the first time. Compared to, say, Robert Frank's The Americans, Hamaya's road trip pictures have a detached, quiet and mostly non-judgmental quality that is filled with wonder at our vast and peculiar country. |

Robert Frank: Come Again
"In November of 1991 Robert Frank went to Beirut on a commission to photograph the city's devastated downtown in the aftermath of the Lebanese civil war. Alongside that commissioned work, he also made Polaroids of the city and its environs, which, on his return home, he stowed away in his studio. It was only many years later that he considered those images again, and used them to create a sketch-book's worth of Polaroid collages."—the publisher READ MORE

Boomoon: Stargazing at Sokcho - SIGNED
"Boomoon's third book with Nazraeli Press, Stargazing at Sokcho comprises 19 dreamlike land- and skyscapes made in the artist's secluded hometown in north-eastern Korea. Resembling nothing so much as the way the skies might look from the inside of a snow-globe, these gorgeous color photographs include hints of Sokcho's soaring granite peaks and dense forests, clear, bitterly cold skies, and an almost audible roar of silent eternity."—the publisher READ MORE

Lisa Kanemoto: Dark Mirror
"I used to walk through life in a constant state of mourning. I did not know how to live until a special person, my photography instructor and mentor, Morrie Camhi, a great humanist, awakened me. For the first time in my life I felt understood by another human being. My wish to be known by him resulted in an outpouring of self-portraits. I wanted to tell him my story, explain my constant sadness, my awkward, inadequate behavior. Inhibited and inarticulate, I found a way through photographs to express long-stored inner turmoil."—Lisa Kanemoto
