You Could at Least Pretend to Like Yellow
Katrien De Blauwer (b. 1969, Belgian) does not care much for the colour yellow?therefore, the tone is the basis for her latest work. Yellow; a colour equally representing clarity and honor, as well as cowardice and deceit.00Initially, while observing the new works, we couldn?t resist to draw a loose parable to Vilgot Sjöman?s 1967 erotic motion picture 'I Am Curious (Yellow)'; an original comedy about politics, the sexual liberation of a young woman, and psychological analysis. The film immediately attracted a ban during its release in the U.S., leading to a proceeding in the Supreme Court. Taking inflation into account, the film remained record-breaking among foreign releases in the United...
I Do Not Want to Disappear Silently Into the Night
"KDB's project may be defined as post-photographic: in re-reading and re-using, in a new way, photographic images culled from various magazines, these latter ones lose their status of plain photography and the book that of a classic photo-book. In a similar way, the artist may be defined as "photographer without a camera": the framing broadens itself, taking place no longer in the lens, but in the eye, whereas the vision occurs directly in the hand, becoming thereby more physical and tactile. ... KDB doesn't write, but she compiles notebooks made of sentences and headlines cut out of newspapers and magazines, appropriating also in this case someone else's vocabulary to express in a neutral way her own story." -- http://www.avarie-publishing.com/files/press_kit_LONG_KDB_web.pdf (as viewed on February 24, 2015).

Namsa Leuba: Crossed Looks
Powerful, vividly chromatic portraits of African identity and the Western fantasy of cultural otherness Accompanying the first solo exhibition of Swiss Guinean artist Namsa Leuba (born 1982) in the United States, Crossed Looksfeatures Leuba's major projects to date, including photography series in Guinea, South Africa, Nigeria and Benin, and the debut of a new series recently made in Tahiti. The exhibition and publication consider how Leuba's photographic practice explores the representation of African identity and the cultural Other in the Western imagination. Over 90 photographs inspired by the visual culture and ceremonies of West Africa, contemporary fashion and design, and the history of photography and its colonizing gaze present Leuba's unique perspective that straddles reality and fantasy. Through the adaptation of myths attributed to the Other, Leuba's photographs acknowledge this double act of looking, a dialogue of global cultures. The essays included in the book examine the nuanced themes of identity and representation in Leuba's multiple bodies of work.
Grays the Mountain Sends
Grays the Mountain Sends by Bryan Schutmaat documents the rugged landscapes and people of the great American West. The images describe a series of mining sites and small mountain towns and the people who have worked in them, built them, and a few younger people who might, or might not, be looking for a way out of them.
Mark Neville
Fancy Pictures brings together seven of Mark Neville's socially engaged and intensely immersive projects from the last decade. Neville often pictures working communities in a collaborative process intended to be of direct, practical benefit to his subjects. The Port Glasgow Book Project (2004) is a book of his social documentary images of the Scottish town. Never commercially available, copies were given directly to all 8,000 residents. Deeds Not Words (2011) focuses on Corby, an English town that suffered serious industrial pollution. Neville produced a book to be given free to the environmental health services department of each of the 433 local councils in the UK. Battle Against Stigma and Helmand are both projects resulting from Neville's time in Afghanistan. Two projects for the USA are also included. Invited by the Andy Warhol Museum in 2012, Neville examined social divisions in Pittsburgh, and the photo-essay Here is London, commissioned by The New York Times Magazine, echoes the style of the celebrated photographers who documented the boom and bust of the 1970s and '80s.
