Today's book, Wednesday, April 1, 2020, is '99:1' by Arjan de Nooy. This book by Dutch writer Arjan de Nooij was inspired by French novelist Raymond Queneau 1947 work, Exercices de style. Raymond Queneau’s book transforms a story that begins between two men in the background of a bus into ninety-nine stylistic styles, such as present, letters, hymns, advertisements, and spell-changing games.
Arjan De Nooy's 99:1 is a book that contains 99 images created from variations of a bus and a negative film containing two men. From changing the format of the image, such as Polaroid, Screenshot, 3D, Puzzle, Collage, you can see the landscape photo, traffic sign, flower photo, etc. created by cutting and changing some elements of the image. It also includes images created by following styles such as Alfred Stiglitz, Richard Avedon, Man Ray, David Hockney, and Talbot. The image's 'stylish' image is arranged at the end of the book.
It is well thought that photographs take precedence over the way in which they appear, and thus are often thought of as a window to understand reality. However, just as Raymon Kno showed that stylistic practice is not transparent in, Arjan de Nooy also shows that the grammar of the image itself can be a crucial role in accepting and understanding reality.

2020년 4월 1일 (수) 이라선 오늘의 책은 아르얀 드 노이(Arjan de Nooy)의 <99:1>입니다. 네덜란드 작가 아르얀 드 노이의 이 책은 프랑스 소설가 레이몽 크노의 1947년작 <문체연습(Exercices de style)>에서 영감을 받아 만들어졌습니다. 레이몽 크노의 <문체연습>은 버스를 배경으로 두 남자 사이에서 시작되는 이야기를 현재형, 편지, 찬가, 광고, 철자 바꾸기 놀이 등 아흔아홉 가지 문체로 변주해 재구성한 책입니다.
⠀
아르얀 드 노이의 <99:1>는 버스와 두 남자가 담긴 한 장의 네거티브 필름으로부터 변주하여 만들어낸 99가지 이미지를 담은 책입니다. 폴라로이드, 레이오그래프, 스크린샷, 3D, 퍼즐, 콜라주와 같이 이미지의 형식을 바꾼 것부터 이미지의 일부 요소를 자르고 변경하여 만들어낸 풍경사진, 교통표지판, 꽃사진등을 볼 수 있습니다. 또한 알프레드 스티글리츠, 리차드 아베돈, 만 레이, 데이비드 호크니, 탈보트 등의 스타일을 따라해 만든 이미지도 담겨 있습니다. 어떤 이미지의 '문체'로 만든 이미지인지는 책의 후반부에 정리되어 있습니다.
⠀
사진은 보여지는 방식보다도 벌어졌던 현실이 우선한다고 곧잘 여겨지며, 그래서 현실을 이해하기 위한 창으로 생각되곤 합니다. 하지만 레이몽 크노가 <문체연습>에서 문체는 투명한 것이 아님을 보여준 것처럼, 아르얀 드 노이 역시 이미지의 문법 자체가 현실을 받아들이고 이해하는데 결정적인 역할이 될 수 있음을 보여줍니다.

Both wondrous and quietly cataclysmic, Drew Nikonowicz’s The World and Others Like It (Fw:Books, Amsterdam) is a reassessment or landscape photography that speaks pointedly to our virtual experience of the world during this very strange present time. Link to the store in bio. We’re still shipping books every day. -
Thousands of explorable realities exist through imagery from rovers and probes, virtual role-playing, and video games. Within the contemporary wilderness, robots have replaced photographers as mediators, producing images completely dislocated from human experience. This suggests that the sublime landscape is now only accessible through the boundaries of technology. Drew Nikonowicz investigates the role of the 21st-century explorer by combining computer modelling with analogue photographic processes. Drawing upon the language of survey images from the 19th century, he questions the relationship with current methods of record making. @fw.books @drew_nikonowicz @hans.gremmen #perimeterbooks

Support your local bookshop by ordering books at their store. Even though some might be (partially) closed during these uncertain times, they might still operate sending books by post or delivering to your mailbox. We ship to bookstores on a daily basis so please do not hesitate asking them.

Now shipping: Mariken Wessels - Miss Cox by @fw.books . This project by Dutch photographer Mariken Wessels (1963) is a multifaceted artistic translation of her fascination with an anonymous woman who posed for Eadweard Muybridge’s camera in 1885. In the 24-image sequence “Arising from the Ground”, the obese woman, who was supposedly named Miss Cox, can be observed as she moves from lying down to a fully upright position. Wessels was inspired by this woman to start making large clay sculptures and photographing obese female models swimming underwater. In these images she focuses on the landscapes the human body assumes when immersed in water. The book also presents studio views, sketches, and other research. #marikenwessels #fwbooks #photography #clay #photographybook #supportyourlocalbookstore #nowshipping

✨ We are very proud to present our latest book: Miss Cox by @marikenwessels ✨— 'Miss Cox (Nude – Arising from the Ground)' is a many-sided artistic translation of artist Mariken Wessels’ fascination for an anonymous woman who had posed for Eadweard Muybridge’s camera in 1885. In the 24-image sequence ‘Arising from the Ground’ (plate 286) the obese woman, who was supposedly named Miss Cox, can be traced from lying down to a full upright position. Affected by her appearance, Wessels began to make large clay sculptures and to photograph obese female models swimming underwater. In these photographs Wessels focuses on the landscapes which a body assumes impressed by water. Besides the underwater series and photographic views of the sculptures, 'Miss Cox' also contains studio views including sketches and other research materials.

📢📢 Call for Proposals Trigger #2: Uncertaint

📢📢 Call for Proposals Trigger #2: Uncertainty —— The School of Speculative Documentary (associated with KASK & Conservatorium / School of Arts Gent in Belgium) and FOMU (Photography Museum, Antwerp) are currently collaborating for the publication with Fw: Books of Trigger #2 on the issue of UNCERTAINTY: What if we allow speculation, messiness and befoggedness to set the conditions for documentary gestures and practices? Contemporary documentary practice has a crucial role to play within art, mainstream media and activism. It constitutes less a genre, and more ‘a critical method’ in its own right. How can we rethink the documentary attitude conceptually, formally and methodologically?
Uncertainty has become documentary’s given. What if this unfinished business of the documentary, creates even more possibilities for speculation and imagination? How can we make decentralized, deformatted and polycentric documentaries, even if we assume that we will never fully succeed? Trigger #2 aims to explore the potentials, the problems and paradoxes of an openly speculative documentary. Its printed magazine will be launched during Paris Photo in November 2020. In addition, the contributions will be published in time on www.trigger-mag.be We are now soliciting articles! We are looking for an array of ideas and topics. We want to hear from different voices, different ideas and different languages. We want to hear critical voices for a possible future. If interested, please follow the guidelines: - PROPOSAL should be maximum 200 words outlining your intent. - Proposal deadline: March 6 - Submit to: tom.viaene@fomu.be If selected, the format will be: - Maximum 2000 words - Payment is 0.20€ per word (incl. VAT) Please share and spread this call for proposals. Can be text, text and image, and image. Trigger is a non-academic publication and wants to stimulate writers / researchers / artists who are interested in delivering contributions that provoke and touch a wider public (debate). It looks forward to a variety of disciplines, perspectives and practices that reconsider the challenges of the documentary in our current conditions. @fomuantwerp @schoolofartsgent

New in store and online courtesy of FW: Books (Amsterdam). Trigger is a new platform launched by Fotomuseum Antwerpen for research, reflection, and dialogue on all things photographic. This first publication on 'Impact' is made in close collaboration with the Royal Academy of Fine Arts (KABK), The Hague, and guest editor Donald Weber. It aims to cast impact as a re-enactment or assertion of radical intimacy, initiate a different gaze on the world, and show that impact can also exist within an ecology or geography of photography. Through 20 contributions by Ariella Azoulay, Lewis Bush, Taco Hidde Bakker, Andrew Jackson and Savannah Dodd, Shahidul Alam, Andrea Stultiens, and more, we learn how impact is social, participative, conflictual. #perimeterbooks

"‘When we pay attention to the world, I believe

"‘When we pay attention to the world, I believe we have to admit that it is a fearful place down to its smallest details,’ remarks Ashkin. ‘Were it not for’ is a catalogue of such details – a procession of negations and refusals that mirrors the working of capital itself. There is a certain satisfaction in unlocking the conceptual schema of the work – understanding it not simply as a document of disorder but a disordered document with transgression built into it: a refusal of rational space, of narrative time, of customary perception. " — Eugénie Shinkle about 'were it not for' on 1000 Words. @workroom_general @eugenieshinkle @1000words_magazine
