90s

'Words That Helped' by Robert ADAMS contains quotes collected in notebooks over six decades from artists like Diane ARBUS, Ingmar Bergman, Paul Cézanne, Emily Dickinson, Dag Hammarskjöld, Dorothea LANGE, Fran Lebowitz & Alfred STIEGLITZ.

In the illustrated volume, 'Boris Mikhailov. Bücher / Books', the two artist books 'Krymskaya Fotomaniya' and 'Mountains' by the Ukrainian photo artist are presented in facsimile on 128 pages each, interrupted by an eighty-page illustrated text sequence.

In out-of-print 'Down and Out in Moscow', Miron ZOWNIR documents the (over)life of homeless and desperate people in sometimes unbearable images. He thus illustrates the decline of the former USSR; an unsparing look at street life in the Russian capital.

For the photo book 'Carnival', Mark STEINMETZ traveled to fairs, street carnivals, and small circuses across the USA between 1982 and 2001 to document the inherent warmth and frenetic energy of a fair day in the portraits of families, youth, and carnies.

'Photographs', published to accompany the Alberto GARCÍA-ALIX retrospective, contains B&W photographs from 1975 to 1997. In addition to included chronology, bibliography, and a selection of critical texts, it is supplemented by a series of reflections.

The Canadian photographer Edward BURTYNSKY researched and photographed the oil industry and culture for the photo book 'Oil'. These images show how the world is made possible by this energy resource and the effects of industrial evolution.

The collection for the book 'Personal Best' was selected by Elliott ERWITT himself. Anyone who browses through the carefully edited retrospective will be filled with a nostalgic mood, a sense of wonder - and an enduring feeling for the richness of life.

'Recreation' by Mitch EPSTEIN captures the vitality of the US from 1970s to the 1990s. The new edition is an extension: more than a third of the photos have never been published before, all have been faithfully re-edited to match the former image quality.

German language book 'Cologne after the War' by Matz & Vollmer describes the eventful history of Cologne during the Bonn Republic. A rapid development in reconstruction and expansion, out of war-ruins to a cultural metropolis through photographer's eyes.
