'A New Map of Italy' by Guido GUIDI focuses on spontaneous suburban architecture in order to draw a complex and layered portrait. Picture by picture the illusions of a 'Bella Italia' give way to the other, more precarious, more realistic face of Italy.

Out-of-print double photo volume on the work of German photographer Axel HÜTTE accompanied his exhibitions 'Night and Day', with works created between 1995 and 2017, and 'Frühwerk', which focused on his early work with photos taken between 1978 and 1995.

The out-of-print photo volume 'Carlo Mollino: Polaroids' contains a selection of Polaroids from the 1960s and 1970s. These are eroticized images of women, but the subject is not sex. The images were composed and staged to conquer nature with artificiality

In his photo book 'Italian Holidays', Claude NORI succeeds masterfully in capturing that mixture of Mediterranean lifestyle & carefree holiday spirit, inspired by his travels and short trips along the Italian coastline with Luigi GHIRRI in the late 1970's

Out-of-print Photo volume 'Dovere di Cronaca. The Duty to Report' by Letizia BATTAGLIA shows what happened in Sicily in the late 1970s to the early 1980s: a war that the Italian photographer, together with Franco Zecchin, captured without heroic ambitions
