The Sapper by @bharatsikkastudio is now available

The Sapper by @bharatsikkastudio is now available in our webshop, and for bookshops to order @ideabooksnl ✨📕✨📕✨text by @pimcharlottecotton 🙏

Bharat Sikka’s 'The Sapper' is as multi-layered as the relationship that it narrates between a father and an adult son. Through photography, Sikka creates the possibilities for observation, recollection, close comparison, and collaboration, and gives this long-term project a title that both describes and belies its substance. 'The Sapper' is an entitling that offers up a cue for the viewer: an explanation of the circumstances, behaviors and predilections that we can read into the portrayal of this former “sapper” of the Indian Army Corps of Engineers. It suggests a double-edged understanding of this father—the push and pull of his sense of selfhood—as both held in his public, now-historical role, and despite of it. The title could be read as holding its subject at an observable distance and implies, perhaps, the urge of an adult child to adopt a vantage point of parity from which to see their father as another adult. It gestures towards the idea of photography as an act of inherent scrutiny and of pinpointing and fixing its ostensible and complicated subject.

Just in time for Paris: 'The Sapper’ by @bharatsikkastudio with a text by @pimcharlottecotton
🔴✨🔴✨🔴✨
Join us for a signing this Saturday at @offprint_projects at 6PM
📚 🥂

“‘The Sapper’ is a story of companionship with neither the patriarch nor the photographer commanding superiority over the other. There is a negotiated equality that happens within the photographic space that they create together, where ideas are exchanged and their authorship is fluidly passed between father and son. Sikka finds these visual signifiers from within the close proximity of his encounters with his father—amplifying, annotating and re-enacting them through his own photographic ordering and assembling. Father and adult son become inseparable in their shared endeavors. It calls to mind Umberto Eco’s belief that what we become is formed from the ‘little scraps of wisdom’ that fathers teach us unwittingly and indirectly.” — CC

🌱✨🌱 Very happy to present our new title ‘Stick Holding Branch’ by @wytskevankeulen 📚✨📚

Since 2009, Wytske van Keulen continuously visited several individuals in France, The United States and Japan who, for different reasons, chose to set aside our strongly economized and de-spiritualized world. The absence of inhabitants in the depicted living environments of Stick Holding Branch make the significance of the photographs shift from a documentary-like basis to the realm of the image, freed from space and time. Accompanied by an extensive selection of correspondence and fragments of personal notes, Van Keulen’s work shows an intimate portrait of a global community redeemed from society’s demanding expectations. 💫📚💫

Now available ‘ANK - Another Kind of Need’ by @marijn.bax ✨✨✨ This project by Marijn Bax consists of a publication and audio work (www.anotherkindofneed.nl 🎧) All images and sounds are from the garden of Ank van Peski, Heesterlust, in Leidschendam, the Netherlands. For three years Marijn walked the many paths of this two-hectare garden: a long and narrow stretched piece of land descending thirteen feet into de meadows of the Dutch peat-land area. Here she watched, wondered, observed, photographed and recorded the human hand at work. Step by step Marijn became more aware of the visual, physical and mental interplay of the depth and layers in this enchanting garden and the need of gardening. 🌿🌱 design by Linda van Deursen

A book about statelessness. 🌏🌍🌎In collaboration with an NGO, Florian was able to get in contact with people who have no officially recognized nationality. He spoke with them about their everyday lives, their experiences with statelessness, and portrayed them – resulting in an extraordinary symbiosis between image and text, between art and society. ✨📚✨ available in shops and online soon.

Now available: ‘Footprint’ by @gercoderuijter and @delpeutpeter 📚✈️📚✈️
Signing at @unseenamsterdam on Saturday 6pm at our table of the Bookmarket 🖋🖋

Footprint is exploring ways of mapping information and aerial and satellite photography of the landscape in general and Will Rogers World Airport (OKC) specifically. 🌎🌍🌏
As an artist, Gerco de Ruijter started out looking at landscapes from the perspective of a kite. From above, the world he photographed usually looked like an abstract map. About ten years ago, he shifted his interest to Google Earth. The satellite images seemed to be made by a kite from outer space. Together with writer and filmmaker Peter Delpeut they set out on a visual investigation into a phenomenon which they encountered on Google Earth, looking at airports.
In the winter, planes are stripped of ice. On the concrete the stencil of an aeroplane remains, just long enough for the satellite to photograph it. De Ruijter and Delpeut wondered whether these giant drawings of aeroplanes really belong on a map. Or is Google Earth not a map, but a unique image of the world? ✨✨

About the book: Inspired by legendary street photographers Hans van der Meer took off to Budapest in the fall of 1984 and stayed, with interruptions, for a year. Minor Mysteries provides insight into what fascinated Van der Meer as a young, curious outsider in a country that at first sight seemed alienating and distant, but where he quickly found his way. Without a preconceived plan, he let his intuition guide him, wandering the streets like a director collecting scenes for a script. This is how he stumbled upon wonderous, playful, at times tragicomic situations. In retrospect, the series is like a monument to an era in transition. An era that was nearing its end, in a city in the heart of Europe, that looked battered under the weight of history, but with hope for something new. 💫💫
