[View this email in your browser]( [photo-eye] PHOTOBOOK WEEKLY June 8, 2024 BESTSELLER --------------------------------------------------------------- Véhiculaire & Vernaculaire Stephen Shore Initiated by Clément Chéroux, Véhiculaire & Vernaculaire examines Stephen Shore's work through the unexplored prism of vehicular photography. Since the 1960s, Shore has made most of his images from a means of locomotion, be it car, train, plane or even, more recently, drone. The journey, as important as the destination, becomes a pretext for experimenting and constructing a singular photographic work. In this way, Stephen Shore explores the vernacular of the contemporary landscape, and what it reveals about American society itself.

Be it Lumbee, Littleturtle, Jacobs, or Locklear. Start at the very beginning. The titular “You” addresses an individual, a group, and in an oblique fashion the reader. The cover repeats the title twice — You Don’t Look Native to Me — and includes matching silhouette busts of someone who might have braided hair, who might be looking away from us, and who is definitely obscuring the word “don’t” in the second iteration of the title. Ergo, “you look native to me.” Duality is a phenomenon to bear in mind while absorbing this book..." — George Slade [Read the full review]( [Order You Don’t Look Native to Me or read more]( ARRIVING SOON --------------------------------------------------------------- Words That Helped Robert Adams Signed copies available! This volume is a personal compilation of quotations that have played a vital role in orienting Robert Adams’ life as a photographer. Copied down in private notebooks collected over six decades and now edited for the general reader, this meditative tapestry of words addresses the question: “What are the facts of our situation, and how might we respond?” [Order Words That Helped or read more]( PRE-ORDERS --------------------------------------------------------------- Exercise at Home Luke Smalley New from Twin Palms! In Exercise at Home, now reissued after being out of print since 2007, Smalley returns to his native Pennsylvania to consider the small-town interiors and landscapes that are the settings for his portraits of young athletes. Color photographs, inspired by a more innocent era, combine whimsy with the inexplicable. Scale, time and content are altered to create the world Smalley inhabits. The lush colors of this new vision belie the viewer’s sense of dislocation.

Through reportage and memoir, in photographs and words, Look at the U.S.A. documents the major fault lines that have defined this era, beginning with the war in Iraq and ending with the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan. Fueled by ideology, insecurity, ambition, and a deep fascination with war, Peter van Agtmael began documenting America’s war in Iraq in 2005. So began a photographic odyssey that would span more than two decades generating work that grew from a deep need to understand and peel back the layers of his troubled society.
