by Oliver GaglianiScores of Abstractions Hardcover: $42.95

"Oliver will tell you he doesn't photograph with his eyes alone but uses his muscles, bones, organs, and guts to feel his way into the thing at hand. His is always an altered reality.... He is like some modern day astronomer who won't be satisfied until he can see into a black hole."

Jack Welpott

"Oliver Gagliani's photographic studies exhibit a love of subject and silver. There is for him a fascination for the process of transformations encountered between the solid and the ephemeral worlds. The resulting images are captured by a man with intent, intensity and a feeling for the poetic."

Paul Caponigro

 

 

by Michael KennaEaster Island Hardcover: $45.00

"It is estimated that over one thousand moais were carved between the years 500 and 1500, and that at the zenith of the Rapanuin story between five and twenty thousand people might have lived on the island. Unfortunately, what happened to them was both catastrophic and quite relevant to our contemporary condition.

Today, copious remains of the rich heritage of Easter Island still lie scattered throughout the landscape against a backdrop of breathtaking beauty. Vertical cliffs of black volcanic rock, crashing waves and abrupt changes of weather provide stark settings for a army of abandoned moais waiting for their marching orders."

Michael Kenna

 

 

by Kathleen BarrowsFloraHardcover: $28.00

"There is always a challenge in finding a way in which one can express the artistic elements which reside in all of us. Some start this quest at birth. Others envision that this process is an integrated part of our day to day life. These daily bits of pieces of creative flow surface with or without being consciously acknowledged or otherwise acted upon. Then there are those who have been found to cultivate their creative self much later in their life, a path less traveled but none the less worn.

Flora is a monograph of quiet intensity. It originates from a woman who made a commitment as a mature adult, to seriously explore the possibilities of photography as her creative voice. Her mentors during this process have been some of the finest photographers of our day but it was her inner sense of play and exploration, combined with a keen creative eye that kept her moving forward, producing this inspiring body of work presented in this intimate monograph."
