Set amid the extreme heat and sprawling concrete of Tucson, Arizona, Dogbreath is a photobook that depicts a series of restless adolescents as they navigate a fraught and changing world. Through photographs of urban decay, sun-faded neighborhoods, scenes of mosh pits, and punk youths alongside their feral dog counterparts, the book paints a sympathetic view of teenagers adrift in what remains of their adolescence.

[Transformation of a Landscape]( Chernobyl Pierpaolo Mittica Chernobyl by photographer Pierpaolo Mittica is a document of the communities who inhabit and pass through the exclusion zone — an area covering approximately 2600 km2 around the site of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor disaster of 1986. Mittica first journeyed to Chernobyl in 2002, drawn like many to photograph the impact of the worst technological catastrophe of the modern era. He returned many times and rather than focusing on the ruins and relics, sought to tell the stories of those he encountered in this unique place. [Chernobyl]( Say Less Greg Gulbransen Over the course of three years, Greg Gulbransen photographed Malik, a set leader of the violent street gang, the Crips. Malik was shot and paralysed in 2018 by the bullet from a rival gang, and as a result his world now centres around his small Bronx apartment in New York, where he is cared for by his family and fellow gang members. Gulbransen, a practicing doctor, had been photographing in the Bronx during his spare time and had got to know some of the local kids. He began to notice a lot of young men in wheelchairs with spinal injuries and was professionally curious. He was told they had all been shot. He wanted to speak to someone in a wheelchair and was introduced to Malik through a fellow Crip. [Say Less]( BOOK REVIEW Medicine Tree Lucas Olivet Reviewed by Brian Arnold "Photographer Lucas Olivet splits his time between Michigan and Switzerland, but his new book Medicine Tree looks at Prince George and the painful legacies of its indigenous people and the remarkable destruction of a major timber industry. Prince George is a rural community in British Columbia, the Canadian province part of the Pacific Northwest region between Oregon and Alaska. Medicine Tree offers insight into the bleak histories of colonialism and environmental destruction. Olivet doesn’t dwell on the physical scars of timber production, but rather the psychic ones, the individual and social trauma inflicted by the Canadian conquest of the Pacific Northwest..." — Brian Arnold [Read the Full Review]( RECENTLY FEATURED The Last Firefly Elijah Gowin Signed copies available! Using the disappearing and threatened firefly as a way to explore ecology and our changing landscape, this book explores how the firefly provides a mirror that warns us of our tenuous human future. Traveling to photograph fireflies and the surrounding environments in Virginia, Malaysia and Thailand, Gowin uses photography to show the visual beauty of fireflies and the darkness they inhabit. It also highlights the impact of deforestation, light pollution, and overtourism that globalization has brought on in the 21st century. [The Last Firefly]( Maggie Emmet & Elijah Gowin Signed copies!

[Manifest | Thirteen Colonies]( This Earthen Door Amanda Marchand & Leah Sobsey This Earthen Door, a collaborative photography project between Amanda Marchand and Leah Sobsey, reinterprets Emily Dickinson’s herbarium, a pressed plant sampler made as a teenager. A renowned and beloved American poet, Dickinson was better known as a gardener during her lifetime. Using digital film and the anthotype printing process, the artists have reimagined the original herbarium (housed by Harvard University) in the language of our time. Anthotypes are an early photographic sun-printing method that employ plant pigments as photographic emulsion. [This Earthen Door]( Hymnal of Dreams Elijah Gowin Signed copies! [Hymnal of Dreams]( Guest Register Penny Wolin [Guest Register]( Marking Time Chris McCaw [Marking Time]( Good Morning, America (Volume III) Mark Power Good Morning, America (Volume III) is the third in an ongoing series of five books by photographer Mark Power exploring the cultural and physical landscape of the US. When Power began this project in 2012 he could not have predicted the seismic changes wrought by both politics and pandemic on America in this period. This new book, the halfway point for the series, continues the visual chronicle – but under very different circumstances than when he began.

Exquisitely printed in photogravure.  A beautiful copy of one of the most important photography books of the 20th century.  $1450. "The idea of the 'decisive moment' is one of the most enduring in photographic literature, and no one has articulated it better than its coiner, in his preface to this book: 'To me, photography is the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event as well as of a precise organization of forms which give that event its proper expression.' Cartier-Bresson's 'precise organization of forms' has come to be the standard against which that of all other photographers is measured, and this book is its proper expression." — David Levi Straus, The Books of 101 Books [The Decisive Moment]( Knave of Hearts Danny Lyon Limited Edition!
