The New Art Gallery Walsall
A run-down town in England's Black Country is the site of a building designed by the architectural practice of Caruso St John. This volume includes documentation of the art projects that accompanied the building and tells the story of the struggle to fund a world-class work of architecture.
This is Not a House
The US mortgage crisis exposed weaknesses in the regulation of the financial industry and the global financial system. At the end of 2008, as the fall-out from the crisis became increasingly widely felt, Edgar Martins was commissioned by New York Times Magazine to photograph its impact across the US in eight separate states and across 16 different locations. These carefully researched sites exposed the extent and impact of the credit crunch on the construction industry.

Idris Khan
If time were condensed into a single moment, the world might look like one of Idris Khan's works of art. Born in Birmingham in 1978, the artist, who's currently rising rapidly in the art world, works with photographs, sculptures, installations, paintings, and film. He always layers various media--for example, every page of the Quran, the scores for every Beethoven sonata, or every JMW Turner postcard from the Tate Britain--in a way that condenses the colors and shapes so much that they become abstract. The British newspaper The Guardian describes Khan's works as "experiments in compressed memories." The catalogue from The New Art Gallery Walsall illustrates the whole palette of Khan's art and shows the meditative, yet monumental character of his work. Exhibition: 3 February -- 7 May 2017, The New Art Gallery Walsall

We Have Fun
With 90 million copies sold worldwide, the Key Words with Ladybird reading scheme is the springboard to reading for life. 100 Key Words make up half of all those we read and write. This essential vocabulary is carefully introduced, practised and developed throughout the scheme.
Thomas Demand
Thomas Demands work lures the viewer into a reality that is not what it appears to be. His images present scenes of political and social events, which the artist recreates out of paper and cardboard, in a scale that is true to the original size of the setting. Demand then photographs these sculptures, creating images in which specific traces of the events and the protagonists are removed, leaving possible evidence of a crime scene, one which appears familiar but yet out of reach. The exhibition and book Nationalgalerie brings together Demands work of the last 15 years which is rooted in German imagery. Demand examines the Deutschlandbild, the German image in photographs from a variety of scenarios in the post-war period. From a selection both known and new of key images of decisive political events and private moments Demand offers a kaleidoscopic vision of a society.
Black Country Stories
The culmination of a four year project documenting everyday life in the region known as the 'Black Country'.
