from the book Paloma al Aire
|
A Closer Look — Paloma al Aire
" Paloma al Aire is a funny little book. Spiral bound with cardboard covers (the front of which, unfortunately, has a propensity to curl), it is small in size with an oval cutout in the front cover revealing a portrait of a serious looking man. The book has an easy, informal feel, reminiscent of a personal album or scrapbook. Brightly colored pigeons, numbered yet still in a confusing assortment, grace the cover, but the true focus is the unsmiling visage of the man peering through." — from Sarah Bradley's post on photo-eye Blog.

A Closer Look — Sicarios & Interrogations
"In the last few years (and I feel this may be a consequence for many as they reach middle age), I have been thinking about how to do something larger than myself, to make an impact on my community for the better. Considering I am leaning towards a universally philanthropic thought-process and my line of work, I have been thinking a lot lately about activism and photography. I have started to face the uncomfortable nature of the art form and the seemingly conflicting notions of voyeurism verses activism. Is it simply looking or looking with a purpose?" — from Melanie McWhorter's post on photo-eye Blog.

Shelby Lee Adams: Salt & Truth—Signed
"Shelby Lee Adams first encountered the communities of the Appalachian mountains as a child, while accompanying his doctor uncle on his rounds. In the mid-1970s he started to photograph in the region, using a 4 x 5 camera, gaining and building a special trust among its often impoverished people, who have tended to not always welcome would-be documentarians." — the publisher
