     At the age of 25, Sai Hashizume went to study in Europe, spending almost five years living inBerlin and Paris. During this time, she was deeply impacted by her experience as a foreigner, astranger, and her notions about art and self shifted. Her photorealistic, sensual paintings areexecuted in a European figurative style, yet incorporate her creativity as a Japanese artist.Despite overarching themes of classical Western art, mythology, and fairy tales, her roots remainevident. Recently, her work has become edged with eroticism, surprise, and modern girl power.This monograph covers three developmental periods – before, during, and after Europe, whenshe returned to Japan.

    In 2007, the Höcker album surfaced – the only known album of photographs showing theeveryday life and leisure of Nazis who worked at Auschwitz. Based on these photographs,

     Annette Behrens researched the life and person of the album’s owner, SS officer Karl-FriedrichHöcker, adjutant to the last commandant of Auschwitz, Richard Baer. The images, taken at apopular holiday cottage, show high-ranking officers and auxiliary personnel, who are depictedliving a “normal” life, detached from their horrendous crimes. Behrens investigates how events

    that were long suppressed or deemed forgotten can resurface in collective memory, raisingdisconcerting questions.

    Elisabeth Ida Mulyani - Inside Embassies Art Paper Editions 2015 ISBN 9789490800321 Acqn 25447Pb 20x27cm 72pp 32col ills £22.50

    Elisabeth Ida Mulyani investigates notions of neutrality and objectivity in a place that represents agiven government or state in its host nation: the embassy. Intended to promote friendly relationsbetween two nations, and to develop opportunities for economic, cultural, and knowledgeexchange, the embassy is also simply a place of work for its inhabitants. Yet embassies maintainan air of mystique, as we wonder what goes on daily behind the scenes. Within the dozenembassies she has photographed, efforts are made in meeting rooms, waiting areas, and

    anonymous corridors to convey something about the nation while attempting to create a homeyatmosphere.

    Kasia Klimpel - The Grand TourROMA Publications 2015 ISBN 9789491843365 Acqn 25450Pb 24x30cm 48pp 32col ills £19.95

    This book is published on the occasion of an exhibition of ‘The Grand Tour’, a project by Amsterdam-based photographer and media artist Kasia Klimpel at the Mauvoisin Dam and theMusée de Bagnes in Le Châble. According to the artist, the project is “a travelogue through theworld of maps” wherein she lends new meaning to the notion of the Grand Tour, which reachedits heyday in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Klimpel uses the junction between the unfilteredmass dispersion of digital images and their use as dynamic artistic objects to insert her ownphotographic yet fictional model landscapes into the unpredictable algorithmic realm of globalsearch engines and geotags.

    Sato Shintaro - Night LightsSeigensha Art Publishing 2015 ISBN 9784861524660 Acqn 25307Hb 24x31cm 64pp 46col ills £28.95

    Between 1997 and 1999, Sato Shintaro made a series of photographs of the streets of Tokyo andOsaka at night. His goal was not to show the popular locations and more recognised scenes, butrather the everyday disorder of the brightly lit urban landscape after dark. The images are

    remarkable for their complete lack of human presence, despite that the big Japanese cities areknown for their bustling, chaotic nature. In the photographer’s words, “The purpose of the lightingis lost and only the glow remains – providing a glimpse of the streets we know well from a lessfamiliar perspective.” This reprint of the original book includes a new essay by photo critic UenoOsamu.

    ‘GENDA’ intersects the cultures of West and East with two sets of editorial staff – one in Italy andone in China – who identify a common theme that is then elaborated through themisunderstandings and complexities at the root of every concrete exchange. Applying aninterdisciplinary approach, seeking to trigger new questions, it gathers accidental, compressed,distant yet similar material. This first issue is dedicated to the concept of landscape as abandon –what remains at the end of a road, the moment a path is interrupted, or when action leads toimpasse. With contributions by Jeff Wall, Bas Princen, Volker Heinze, Fan Shi San, Ni Weihua,Zhang Kechun, and many more.

    With 'Myopia' Hillie de Rooij shows us that we do not simply look at pictures. There are rules andcodes involved that affect the way we look at images of the world around us. And this surelycounts for images of places we have never been before. 'Myopia' deals with the way Africa isdepicted in Western media and the fact that this is often based on a stereotype image.Journalistic codes demand a certain degree of stability. Stability provided by familiar foundationssuch as vocabulary, perspectives and subject matter. We also use our memory to interpret

    images. But in search of recognition we leave ourselves stuck in clichés.

René Beekvelt often visited the city of Naples. He wandered around through thenarrow streets where there is unlikely chaos. He intensely enjoyed the sincerity of the

    Neapolitans and all facets of life taking place so openly. A selection of his images are used in thisSmorfia card-set.
