L'Ennui à deux ; Bored couples (Martin Parr)

Menhattan (Morad Bouchakour)
Morad Bouchakour was one of the photographers invited by Foam (Fotografiemuseum Amsterdam) to give a picture of modern New York for a group exhibition in that city commemorating four centuries of connections between Manhattan and the Netherlands. Bouchakour, a sometime New York resident, pointed his camera at passers-by who did not stand out in the New York street scene. Communications agency Vandejong, which also works for Foam, then cast the resulting piece of photojournalism in the shape of a large fan-fold that the panel thought well suited to Bouchakour’s style of photography. It’s a pity this not particularly exclusive-looking ‘book’ has been brought out in a limited edition of only 500 copies. It deserves a wider audience.

Soul and Soul 1969-1999 (Kiyoshi Suzuki)
Soul and Soul is the title of Kiyoshi Suzuki's first published book (in Japanese, Nagare No Uta). The book offered here is not the same, but rather a retrospective catalog that takes the title and excerpts entire pages of the original book, and then goes on to do the same for several of Suzuki's brilliant photobooks. What is very interesting to see is the passion the Artist had for the photobook itself. His designs and mock-ups are reproduced throughout, with margins and measurements drawn in. In fact, this edition, which also reproduces the cover image of the original Soul and Soul is differentiated by such markings over the front. This title is now sold out by the publisher and is thus fast becoming
