'War & Peace in New York. Photographs 1966-1970' by Tod PAPAGEORGE, comprises two photo volumes that provide a comprehensive portrait of a troubled city in a dark, febrile time. This is a city built sweetly, if seriously, at heart, to belong and to like.

'But Still, It Turns', a photo and text book edited by prominent British photo artist Paul GRAHAM, brings together collected dynamic and diverse works that tell open stories. These are brought together in this volume - in harmony and revealing dissonance.

'Cloud Physics' by Terri WEIFENBACH explores the photographic ability to capture the transience of natural phenomena. Tiny variations of light and humidity, golden clouds, plant life rustling with moisture, animal presence in the depths of the forest.

In this out-of-print photo volume, 'Colors. The Polaroids', Dennis HOPPER documents gang graffiti in Los Angeles in the mid-80s. The photographs, reproduced in their original format, preserve that ephemeral kind of street art and communication method.

The mood conveyed here suggests a nostalgic representation of scenes from a coastal village. Technically adept like an advertising photographer and thoughtful like a conceptualist, ETHRIDGE ponders the role & importance of photography in the modern world.
