Minkkinen
A monograph comprising 50 years of works by the acclaimed Finnish-American photographer, this edition includes many never-before-published works.
Saga
Saga is the first major monograph of the work of Arno Minkkinen, published to accompany a series of exhibitions in the U.S. and Europe. Offering a comprehensive retrospective of this vital photographer's work, Saga gives new meaning to the self-portrait. Eschewing digital manipulation, Minkkinen juxtaposes his own body (and occasionally those of his family) with details in the landscape so that, in whole or in part, the human form collaborates with nature to create a work of lyrical beauty. Essays by a stellar roster of writers and scholarsnovelist Alan Lightman and critics A.D. Coleman and Arthur Dantoexplore the inner world of Minkkinen's pictures. Surreal and humorous, documentary and artful, the photographs of Arno Minkkinen leave the viewer moved and captivated.
Balanced Equation
A Finnish American photographer, writer, and educator, Arno Rafael Minkkinen developed a profound love for photography as an advertising copywriter. "What happens inside your mind can happen inside a camera" (a line he wrote for Minolta cameras) became his artistic credo as a graduate student at Rhode Island School of Design studying with Harry Callahan and Aaron Siskind. Forty years later, his self-portraits continue to be made simply using single-negative exposures with no manipulation in the camera or the darkroom.
Waterline
Minkkinen has been photographing himself in the nude since 1971, an exploration that unfolds here as a timeless study of the human figure amid the forces of nature. The element of water provides the common ground for his surrealistic vision.

The Gatekeeper
She wanted to stop time when she was ten years old and stopped eating in order not to grow up. Lene Marie Fossen rejected the linear progression of time that forced her to go through puberty. She chose to be open about her disease and found her means of expression in photography. Her unabashed self-portraits bear witness to an inner conflict and are both cruel and beautiful. Lene Marie Fossen sadly passed away on October 22, 2019; she was only thirty-three years old. The present publication pays tribute to Fossen as an artist, but also reveals the difficult path she chose to take - and that anorexia is a serious illness and cannot be trivialized.

Trajectories
