Photo volume 'What She Said' contains portraits that Deanna TEMPLETON made in the USA, Europe, Australia & Russia in combination with gig flyers as well as her own diary entries from the 1980s. A disclosure of growing up, full of humor and pathos.

B/w photographs from the 1920s to 1950s, some of which were published for the first time, create a small custom painting of a time when not only the region, which is still rural, has crossed the threshold of modernity, but also the photography itself.

The book 'My Dearest Javanese Concubine' by Luca DESIENNA is a love story. Two social outcasts - Tira, a 48-year-old transsexual & Dayang, a disposable person without family - in faraway Indonesia find a way to love each other regardless of their origins.

In her photo volume 'Shadows in Paradise', Marianna ROTHEN delves into a complex meditation on femininity. In the opaque narrative in the aesthetics of the 1960s, the presence of a gun visually combines with fear and melancholy in carefully staged scenes.

The book 'Time Atlas' by Niina VATANEN combines images from diverse sources: personal photos, images from the Internet, encyclopedias, newspapers as well as textbooks. It focuses on time and how pictorial memory, personal experience & history intertwine.

In 'I saw the air fly' children from Turkey, Syria & Iraq show their surroundings through their distinctive, wondering gaze: a vision marked by surprise & play, in which friends & family are captured head-standing, leaning out of windows, and in disguise.
