Just as she was driving away, Dikeman invariably pointed her camera at her parents. What started with a candid snapshot in 1991 turned into a ritual over the years. The book chronicles their farewells as seasons change and years go by, separating black and white photographs from colour photographs. Leaving and Waving — which was originally part of a larger body of work entitled Relative Moments — is a heartfelt exploration of family, the passage of time and the sadness of leaving.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFourth edition\u003cbr\u003eConcept and Editorial direction: Cécile Poimboeuf-Koizumi\u003cbr\u003eDesign: bureau Kayser\u003cbr\u003e112 pages\u003cbr\u003e66 photographs (27 colour plates, 39 duotone plates)\u003cbr\u003e19 x 23,5 cm\u003cbr\u003eSection-sewn hardcover\u003cbr\u003eEnglish \/ French\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chose Commune","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39833305874581,"sku":"","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0460\/7908\/2645\/files\/Covers_24_428ec2ea-2025-4ffb-9db9-56b0a242641d.jpg?v=1782141641"},{"product_id":"brian-van-lau-were-just-here-for-the-bad-guys","title":"Pre-Order: Brian Van Lau - We're Just Here for the Bad Guys","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cem\u003ePlease Note: This is a pre-order.

It is about what we take, what we fear, what we turn into spectacle, and what refuses to bend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1988, Constance Thalken began a five year journey photographing small communities in remote regions of the southeastern United States, from the Gulf Coast of Texas into Florida. She moved through landscapes shaped by water and heat, where human presence is provisional and the natural world remains dominant. These are places governed by older rhythms, where an ancient world persists just beyond view.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeart of a Bird examines the negotiation between people and the natural world, sometimes reverent, sometimes violently adversarial. This tension is most visible in Louisiana during the annual alligator harvest. Native to the marshlands of the southeastern coast, alligators have remained largely unchanged for millions of years, primordial presences holding fast as America evolves around them. Feared, hunted, regulated, mythologised, and commodified, they move between threat and resource, warning and attraction. In that resistance, the alligator becomes a measure of the society built around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThalken’s photographs hold a tension between force and fragility, violence and vulnerability. Masculinity in the landscape, images of children, and human animal relationships sit side by side. The work exposes the unstable boundary between human and animal, dominance and dependence, survival and death. The innocence of children is set against the primal stillness of the alligators in their habitats, both subject to systems shaped by human control and necessity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize - 30x24cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePages - 80\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanley\/Barker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48901471437052,"sku":null,"price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0460\/7908\/2645\/files\/HeartofaBird_Untitled_Apron_FinalLarge.jpg?v=1774886877"},{"product_id":"daniel-dorsa-to-skip-a-sinking-stone","title":"Pre-Order: Daniel Dorsa - To Skip a Sinking Stone","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note: This is a pre-order.

At once pleading and tragic, joyful and frenetic, the music set the tone for what would become Rozovsky’s journey through the Balkan region, including Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Croatia, Greece, Romania, Bulgaria, and Albania. Profoundly drawn to the land and its people, Rozovsky created the intimate and equivocal photographs that form Mountain Black Heart. Rozovsky’s borderless vision drifts through railways, farms, open water, parking lots, fairgrounds, and graveyards, balancing vitality and life with suggestions of dark history and subtle signs of violence. Interspersed throughout are striking portraits of people and animals which emanate vulnerability and resilience. Through its loose, expressionistic approach and a compassionate engagement with the human and natural world, Rozovsky’s nomadic project pieces together a personal and kaleidoscopic view of a fragmented place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Paragraph SCXW226686369 BCX0\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDebossed and silkscreened linen hardcover\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e28 x 32 cm, 132 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mack","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49226341941500,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0460\/7908\/2645\/files\/Covers_25_4a0529f9-c46b-4364-8c6b-87ff983eec08.jpg?v=1782402711"},{"product_id":"jerry-hsu-how-about-never","title":"Pre-Order: Jerry Hsu - How About Never (Signed)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"c-message_kit__gutter\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-qa=\"message_content\" class=\"c-message_kit__gutter__right\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c-message_kit__blocks c-message_kit__blocks--rich_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-qa=\"message-text\" class=\"c-message__message_blocks c-message__message_blocks--rich_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-qa=\"block-kit-renderer\" class=\"p-block_kit_renderer\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper--first\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"Paragraph SCXW226686369 BCX0\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePlease Note: This is a pre-order.

In 1919, hundreds of Black sharecroppers organizing against peonage were massacred by white mobs aided by federal troops—events covered up, distorted, and only classified as lynchings in 2015. Today the town remains deeply abandoned and underfunded, a place where that history never fully receded.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eDuring the Covid pandemic, Bozeman began making regular trips to Elaine, walking around, meeting people, and building relationships over time. Working with a large-format camera, he made portraits of the people who remain—children in particular—that are at once intimate and monumental. These are images of kids on basketball courts and empty streets, of neighbors posing in front of their homes, of young people standing in cemeteries with their backs to the camera. Bozeman returned again and again, bringing prints, bringing photography books, eventually running a summer photography camp for the kids he'd been photographing. The resulting images are interspersed throughout the book with historical photographs made in the aftermath of the 1919 massacre, pulling the past and present into uncomfortable proximity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eBozeman's practice, as Zora J Murff writes in the accompanying essay, is one of study in the deepest sense—not scholarly consumption but the living alongside others that demolishes the ivory tower as a monopoly of knowledge. The book's title comes from local vernacular—\"out the E\" meaning out of Elaine—a phrase that captures the limited horizons the town's history has imposed on its people. Bozeman puts the spotlight on this easy-to-miss town not to romanticize or aestheticize its conditions, but to insist that its people and its history be seen clearly, and on their own terms.

Cyrus arrived in New York in 1990 to attend graduate school at the School of Visual Arts, and spent the years that followed roaming the streets with his camera, attuned to the rhythms of everyday life. The work moves in a lyrical arc: from the street, with its children, families, characters and storefronts, down into the subway and that unique state of in-between, and back up again into the electric atmosphere of the nightclub, where music—the life force Harlem was so celebrated for—fills the room.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eThese are not documents of spectacle.

Threaded throughout them, appearing and disappearing like thoughts during a long conversation, are images from the major series he was developing during those same years—among them his celebrated Zuma, Vandalism, and Los Angeles International Airport Noise Abatement Zone series—bodies of work that would come to define his place in the photographic canon.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eThe effect is quietly revelatory.

Each photograph is a one-liner—comic, precisely framed, and quietly devastating. A master of the decisive moment, Graves pushed further: people caught mid-air, two sets of action unfolding simultaneously in foreground and background, gestures and body language deployed like props in a production his subjects never quite knew they were part of. The photographic plane becomes a stage, its unsuspecting subjects his actors—piecing together different elements within a single frame with the instincts of a collagist, a medium he would take up formally later in his career. What emerges are images that reveal more about America's true nature than words ever could: a landscape and its people that are funny, menacing, awkward, aggressive, joyful, and dubious—all at once. Together these early images form a collective portrait of a nation whose disillusionment with its own mythology was just beginning to show.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eGraves is one of the unsung photographers of his generation.

And so was born, in Gossage’s words, this commonplace book “of remarkable things, pictures that are as rich individually as they are in the narrative of Ray’s books, but in a different way.

His images transform these objects rather than transcribe them, altering their condition of being. For Gossage, to photograph is to ask one thing to become another kind of thing. Indeed, does a sculpture always need a pedestal or isolation to not just be another thing in the world? Whether a pile of archive folders, a dirty beaker, a heap of baseball caps, a plank of wood or a tuft of grass, he photographs these objects against the same background of white paper, their shadows often taking on as much presence as their concrete forms. With so much of the objects unclear (their volume, scale and weight, their three-dimensionality), and each having lost its original purpose or being about to die, how much has Gossage actually saved in his photographs: only his intentions? Is a good photograph always better than what it pictures—and how?

Born in Omaha, Nebraska, Wagner came to New York to pursue a degree in social work, but ultimately found his voice through the camera. He is also deeply committed to photographic processes, developing his own black-and-white negatives and making gelatin silver prints in his own darkroom. Wagner’s work belongs to a lineage of American street photography that investigates the social landscape and addresses questions of race, class, and identity.

Bodies, bedrooms, gatherings, fragments of diaries, and moments of tenderness are rendered with a raw immediacy that resists spectacle. Rather than presenting identity as a fixed category, the work allows people simply to appear as they are, reflecting a generation moving beyond rigid identity structures and embracing fluidity, experimentation, and chosen forms of belonging.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcross the book, Glazzard’s own transition unfolds alongside the shifting lives of the people around him, forming part of a wider portrait of a shared world. At the heart of the book is a desire to build an archive of the present, documenting a circle of lives often absent from official histories. Conceived as a stapled, screen-printed publication much like Glazzard’s self-published zines, the book presents this material with the directness of a record. What emerges is a portrait of friendship, intimacy, and collective life that holds vulnerability and solidarity side by side.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ePaperback\u003cbr\u003e21 x 29.7 cm, 168 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SPBH Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50967931158780,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0460\/7908\/2645\/files\/Covers_38_c7b35444-2222-4460-87d6-3b50bc98cc50.jpg?v=1786466599"},{"product_id":"taylor-galloway-across-the-street-from-heaven","title":"Pre-Order: Taylor Galloway - across the street from Heaven","description":"\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note: This is a pre-order.

Arriving one afternoon on a whim during an early heat wave, he introduced himself to anyone willing to pay attention—and kept coming back. Working with a large-format camera on a tripod, he distributed prints, and slowly became part of the community's fabric, earning the trust of those who might otherwise have had little reason to give it. That trust was hard won and freely returned—by summer's end, DiRado had become a fixture, his daily arrival an event in itself.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eThe resulting portraits are unparalleled in their intimacy—and together they build a vivid portrait of the place and its inhabitants. DiRado moved between families, friends, couples, and individuals—capturing the textures of a working-class community that claimed Bell Pond as its own. The work is a timestamp of a world before the internet and the endless digital reproduction of likenesses. Through DiRado's lens, these lives are given weight and permanence—crystallized on film in a way the world around them rarely afforded. Whole stories exist within each frame, and the mystery of what we'll never fully know pushes to the foreground. DiRado stayed close to many of his subjects long after that summer ended, invested in them as people, not just as photographs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a_GcMg font-feature-liga-off font-feature-clig-off font-feature-calt-off text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eWhat runs through every image is DiRado's deep humanism.
