MoMA Museum of Modern Art, New York, 2007. hardcover. fine. Born in Tel Aviv in 1954, Barry Frydlender has been exploring the potential of digital technology for more than a decade, and over the past five years his experiment has gathered greater momentum. Each of his panoramic photographs is put together from dozens, sometimes hundreds, of shots that may have taken minutes or months to accumulate. Filled with people and things, these works reward slow, patient looking, and the invitation to do so is especially pertinent to the pictures reproduced in this book. This publication, which accompanies a Spring 2007 exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, concerns only one aspect of Frydlender's work--those pictures that deal with life in contemporary Israel.

Aargauer Kunsthaus, Aarau, 1986. paperback. fine.

Actes Sud, Arles, 1999. paperback. fine. L'oeuvre intitulée Marseille, 98 est une série de photographies faites sur plusieurs semaines dans la ville de Marseille. Elle appartient à un ensemble plus vaste d'images se reconnaissant par l'ambiance très urbaine d'une grande ville, accueillant beaucoup de personnes à la fois, dans l'ordre et le désordre de la circulation et des activités de la vie de tous les jours. Le milieu urbain se comprend alors comme un lieu partagé en commun. Les images sont par ailleurs sans artifices, montrant les gens tels qu'ils sont, pris dans des attitudes sans aprêts, c'est pourquoi le spectateur ressent leur présence dans l'immédiateté de l'apparition.

Die Gestalten Verlag, Berlin, 2011. paperback. fine. Introduces a cutting-edge selection of international zines and examines their role as a catalyst in the evolution of media and graphic design today.

It not only describes the key factors that distinguish various zines, but--through interviews with people involved in their production and distribution--also sheds light on various strategies for this evolving media form.
