KADIST, an interdisciplinary contemporary arts organization with an international contemporary art collection, has recently acquired Danielle Bowman’s Vision (Bump’N’Curl), 2019.

Since moving to New England in 1984, Barbara Bosworth has been photographing the sea and its awe-inspiring ability to transform sky, water, and light. The sea evokes calm introspection, romance, and poetry, while remaining a deeply unknowable and overpowering natural force, a contradiction that has drawn people to the shoreline for millennia. Radius Books has recently published a collection of this work, which can be found here.

Rahim Fortune’s I can’t stand to see you cry was listed by the Museum of Modern Art as one of their favorite photobooks of the year. Phil Taylor of MoMa writes, “Part elegy, part essay on time and place, Fortune’s book grapples with love, grief, family, community, and the presence of history and of those who precede us, all finely rendered in the subtle tonal gradations of black-and-white photographs.”

The was also listed as a top ten photography book of the year by Smithsonian and photographer Alec Soth. For more about the artist and to see a selection of his work, please see our Artist page.

Paul McDonough’s new book, Headed West, has been published by Stanley/Barker. As Hilton Als of the New Yorker so aptly put it: “McDonough’s project, it seems to me, is a kind of record of his life as a walker… his pictures are a map of experience, of his consciousness. He is a thinker who looks through the eye of his camera to distinguish truth from reality.”

You can purchase the book here.
