A Closer Look — Not Seen | Not Said
"The second volume of Orchard series, Not Seen | Not Said, contains photographs by Raymond Meeks and Wes Mills, along with the minimalist drawings of Mills. The book shows Mills wandering in a barren land as Meeks follows, documenting the artist's inquisitive steps with his camera. The photographs were taken by Meeks between 2008-2010 in two locations, an orchard owned by Mills' family (apropos to the series title) and the John Day fossil beds near Kimberly, Oregon." — Melanie McWhorter

A Closer Look — Behind the Zine: Self-Publishing Culture
" Behind the Zines: Self-Publishing Culture, edited by Robert Klanten, Adeline Mollard and Matthias Hübner and published by Gestalten, is a canny look at the self-publishing industry, covering small indie publishers like Rollo Press, to periodical publications like 200% to prolific self-publishers like Erik van der Weijde. Opening with an understated preface, the body of the book is divided into five sections — Gallery, Laboratory, Kiosk, Archive and Theater..." — Sarah Bradley

Luigi Fieni's portfolio The Room of 1000 Demons"As my background is mostly painting, my work is constantly trying to merge photography with painting, trying to produce photographs that are as pictorial as possible: my personal view of things.
Emotions are what I mostly try to capture, show through my lenses, and that is also true when the work involves a visual narrative. Even when working in photojournalism, rather than capturing or depicting an event, the photograph becomes a way to show what I feel in a precise moment. I prefer to show emotions to people, I try to make them feel what I felt, not just show them what I saw." — Luigi Fieni

from the book Horizonville
|
Horizonville by Yann Gross"Slip through a wormhole in space and there are an infinite number of possible worlds you could end up in. The world Yann Gross found himself in was Horizonville. It's the kind of town that confirms the suspicions held by many of Switzerland's fellow Europeans; that there is something odd about Switzerland, odd beyond the oddness of France or Italy or England, odd with 'great big fecking bells on it.'" — from the review by Colin Pantall of Horizonville

from the book Pangnirtung
|
Pangnirtung by Robert Frank "I agreed to review Robert Frank's Pangnirtung with not a little trepidation. Where is Pangnirtung, anyway? The last page of the book has a map. One way of knowing. Northwest Territories. Cold. Isolated. Gray, like the photographs. Unrelenting gray on perfect, heavy, matte paper with plenty of white space. Overcast. The cover: 'stones - maybe the balance of a big sky above...' The texture of the boards, rough. Simple, but not. Frank's text: sparse. The land: sparser." — from the review by Ellen Rennard of Pangnirtung

Mitch Dobrowner
"21ST Editions is honored to announce Mitch Dobrowner, the second book in 21ST Editions' new Prism Series. Limited to 280 copies, each book is wrapped in a Twinrocker handmade paper and accompanied by your choice (as available) of one of four signed 16x20 silver-gelatin contact prints (shown above). The four prints are limited to editions of 70 with only 50 of each for sale.
"Mitch Dobrowner's magnificent landscapes distance themselves from all other landscapes in photography and painting....What we find here is, first, an absolute, pantheistic celebration of the beauty of nature itself. Second and equally as important is the exaltation of the artist's eye, which creates beauty from the natural world and does not simply select it or frame it — creates it in the same way that the various geological forces like erosion crafted these idle works of such rough beauty....Dobrowner articulates the sublime in work created in awe to the vast expanses of space and time." — from Dafydd Wood's essay on Mitch Dobrowner
