Teaching Photography, Notes Assembled is a slim, unassuming book that has been an unexpected hit in photography circles. This expanded edition features an additional chapter and is co-published by OB Press and RIT Cary Graphic Arts Press, both affiliated with Rochester Institute of Technology. In Teaching Photography., Perkis draws from four decades of teaching experience at such institutions as Pratt Institute, and Cooper Union, as well as School of Visual Arts in New York.

Perkis expresses his acute observations as a...
Ar
A Collaboration Between Two Guggenheim Fellows. In her foreword, Anne Murray writes, "In what appears as a semiotic symphony, this book brings together two disparate minds who appear in ether, their works a semblance of patterns emerging in a cloud, and as dust, settling into letters and shapes." "Mozenter's cut letters and shapes are an eye chart; they test our vision. Perkis' words are stitched together with precision and awe, like Mozenter's felt. "If I could only do it over I would do it right." But "wrong" holds magic. Intuition is beauty. Love is the strongest bond." --Gail Buckland, curator, author, educator "In ar, Philip and Cyrilla draw us into a world we're unaware of until we find ourselves there. In the way the spareness and elegance of Cyrilla's felts harmonize with Philip's gracile utterances, we come to understand how fragments make a whole. What is missing is what is there. And because we have to fill -- with our imaginations -- the absences, it is finally we who are there. ar is a moving and profound experience. It is a beautiful book." --Paul Kane, poet Poetry. Art. Hybrid. Collaboration.

Christine Osinski: Summer Days Staten Island
Taken in the "forgotten borough" of Staten Island between 1983 and 1984, the photographs in Christine Osinski's (born 1948) Summer Days Staten Islandcreate a portrait of working-class culture in an often overlooked section of New York City. Captured on Osinski's large format 4x5 camera as she wandered the island, her candid portraits of strangers, vernacular architecture and quotidian scenes reveal an invisible landscape within reach of the thriving metropolis of Manhattan. The neighborhoods that Osinski captured are devoid of the skyscrapers, swarms of pedestrians and choking masses of traffic that are a short ferry ride away. Instead, she captures kids riding bikes on open, empty streets, suburban homes with neatly tended yards and the small-town feel of New York's least populous borough. Accompanying the series of images is an essay by Paul Moakley, Timemagazine's Deputy Director of Photography and Visual Enterprise.

The Thrill of the Chase
Samuel J. Wagstaff Jr. (1921–1987) amassed an extraordinary collection of 26,000 photographs between 1973 and 1984, recognizing that photography was an undervalued art form on which he might have a profound impact as a collector. He was mainly attracted to photographs that stimulated his imagination, and his taste ran toward the idiosyncratic—images that surprised him chiefly because he had never seen them before. In choosing the 147 works reproduced in this volume, Paul Martineau selected masterpieces as well as images from obscure sources: daguerreotypes, cartes-de-visite, and stereographs, plus mug shots, medical photographs, and works by unknown makers. The latter category contains s...
