Today our world is under the watchful and tireless eye of computer vision, with cameras and monitors tracing our every move. Furthermore, generative AI is now able to render a synthetic world indistinguishable from reality for us to explore. Trevor Paglen goes in search of the ways and means of understanding this new visual universe. Instead of asking what these technologies "say" about the world, he teaches us to ask what they "do" and where such images come from.Exploring the esoteric worlds of psyops, UFO imagery, magicians, and public relation gurus, Paglen shows that this apparently alien realm is more human, but much stranger, than we imagine.

“In GENESIS, my camera allowed nature to speak to me. And it was my privilege to listen.” —Sebastião SalgadoOn a very fortuitous day in 1970, 26-year-old Sebastião Salgado held a camera for the first time. When he looked through the viewfinder, he experienced a revelation: suddenly life made sense. From that day onward—though it took years of hard work before he had the experience to earn his living as a photographer—the camera became his tool for interacting with the world. Salgado, who “always preferred the chiaroscuro palette of black-and-white images,” shot very little color in his early career before giving it up completely.Raised on a farm in Brazil, Salgado possessed a deep love and respect for nature; he was also particularly sensitive to the ways in which human beings are affected by their often devastating socio-economic conditions. Of the myriad works Salgado has produced in his acclaimed career, three long-term projects stand out: Workers (1993), documenting the vanishing way of life of manual laborers across the world; Migrations (2000), a tribute to mass migration driven by hunger, natural disasters, environmental degradation and demographic pressure; and this new opus, GENESIS, the result of an epic eight-year expedition to rediscover the mountains, deserts and oceans, the animals and peoples that have so far escaped the imprint of modern society—the land and life of a still-pristine planet. “Some 46% of the planet is still as it was in the time of genesis,” Salgado reminds us. “We must preserve what exists.” The GENESIS project, along with the Salgados’ Instituto Terra, are dedicated to showing the beauty of our planet, reversing the damage done to it, and preserving it for the future.Over 30 trips—traveled by foot, light aircraft, seagoing vessels, canoes, and even balloons, through extreme heat and cold and in sometimes dangerous conditions—Salgado created a collection of images showing us nature, animals, and indigenous peoples in breathtaking beauty. What does one discover in GENESIS? The animal species and volcanoes of the Galápagos; penguins, sea lions, cormorants, and whales of the Antarctic and South Atlantic; Brazilian alligators and jaguars; African lions, leopards, and elephants; the isolated Zo’é tribe deep in the Amazon jungle; the Stone Age Korowai people of West Papua; nomadic Dinka cattle farmers in Sudan; Nenet nomads and their reindeer herds in the Arctic Circle; Mentawai jungle communities on islands west of Sumatra; the icebergs of the Antarctic; the volcanoes of Central Africa and the Kamchatka Peninsula; Saharan deserts; the Negro and Juruá rivers in the Amazon; the ravines of the Grand Canyon; the glaciers of Alaska... and beyond. Having dedicated so much time, energy, and passion to the making of this work, Salgado calls GENESIS “my love letter to the planet.”

"Boken karaktäriseras till stor del av fina och ibland poetiska ögonblicksbilder. [...] Samtidigt har författarna en problematiserande och övergripande blick.[...] Mats Andréasson och Peter Örn reflekterar motiverat över att de som skrivande besökare ingår i en kolonial tradition, men lyckas undvika att beskriva befolkningens levnadssätt som exotiskt. Det gör dock inte att de väjer för att diskutera allvarliga problem" Henrik Wiktor, BTJ-häftet nr 7, 2023. Betyg: 4 av 5.
"Mats Andréasson och Peter Örn har gett oss boken om ett område på planeten som nu nästan varje vecka tar plats i forskarnas och medias klimatlarm. Men vars historia, människor, natur och kultur de flesta av oss inte vet särskilt mycket om. Nu kan den bristen avhjälpas!" Stefan Edman, Tidskriften Pilgrim nr 4/2023
"Örn berättar med stor respekt och kärlek om sitt Grönland. Med samma ömhet fotograferar Andreasson fiske och jakt, samhällen och människor. [...] Tack Mats Andreasson och Peter Örn för en vacker och viktig bok!" Ann Mellblom, Min Husbil i Sverige.
Grönland - världens största ö. På en yta fem gånger så stor som Sverige lever 57 000 invånare.
En gång kom människor hit på jakt efter mat och möjligheter att bo. För att överleva måste de lära sig att leva i Arktisvinterns extrema kyla och mörker. De skapade sin egen kultur av berättelser, legender och religiösa myter. Och de döpte landet till Kalaallit Nunaat - människornas land . Om det landet vill boken berätta.
I ord och bild berättar författarna om det väldiga Grönland - ett väglöst land där människor ofta reser med hundsläde mellan byarna på vintern och med båt och kajak på sommaren. I en litterär reseskildring tas läsaren med till olika delar av Grönland och får ta del av personliga berättelser om vardagen. Skildringen av Grönland är en ofrånkomlig berättelse om människans nödvändiga anpassning till naturens växlingar och vädrets nyckfullhet och klimatets långsiktiga förändring.
Mats Andréasson har i sin profession lång erfarenhet av vatten och miljöfrågor. Naturens rikedom att skapa andrum har alltid lockat oavsett om det gäller att färdas på den grönländska havsisen eller i det fantastiska svenska naturlandskapet. Mats har bland annat skrivit böckerna Vid rinnande vatten och Värt en omväg.
Peter Örn har tidigare arbetat med ledarskap i organisationer som präglas av arbetet för solidaritet och respekt för människors lika värde. Peter har bland annat skrivit böckerna Ledare och Prostatacancer - en bok om hopp.
Mats och Peter har tidigare skrivit boken Den ljusnande framtid tillsammans, utgiven på Votum Förlag, om hållbar utveckling med respekt för människans och naturens gränser.

En ny fotobok av Jean Hermanson! Daniel Möller och Nils Petter Löfstedt har arbetat med Jeans tidsmässigt mest omfattande bildarkiv, från hans 32 år i stadsdelen Möllevången, Malmö. Det är även Jeans sista arbete, innan sjukdomen tog honom ifrån oss 2012. Det här är fotografierna som han inte kunde sluta ta från sin balkong och ute i torgkvarteren. Bildarbetet har varit okänt för världen, aldrig tidigare publicerat. Foto-Sverige kan skatta sig lyckligt! Det är dokumentärfilmsregissören Nils Petter Löfstedt som burit på tanken att slutföra Jeans stora Möllan-arbete. Alltsedan vännen och mentorn gick bort har det ofullbordade verket, som Jean tänkte mest på sina sista år i livet, kallat på Nils Petter. Tillsammans jobbade de med idéer om bildberättelsen, hur den skulle förmedlas. Men inget blev av detta. Först när Nils Petter fick sällskap i arbetet så lossnade det. Författaren Daniel Möller tog med sig bilderna ut på torget för att helt enkelt höra vad folk tänkte om dem. Det slog gnistor direkt. Minnen, berättelser och känslor bubblade ur folk. De som såg Jeans Möllan-bilder satte omedelbart igång ett slags detektivarbete vars mål var att hitta människorna som porträtterats. Torghandlarna hjälptes åt, folkbokföring och andra arkiv undersöktes. Ett ljuvligt pussel började läggas. Medverkar i boken gör några av de som känner igen sig själva på bilderna, sina föräldrar, sina vänner och bekanta. Nu äntligen kan alla uppleva mästerfotografen Jean Hermansons bilder från Möllan, ihop med folks minnen och berättelser från kvarteren! Utdrag ur bokens introduktion: En ögonblicksbild som jag minns från en av de första kalla vårmorgnarna bland torghandlarna: Vi har nyss fått kontakt med Marwan, han är nyfiken och bläddrar med sina stora muskulösa händer bland papperskopiorna. Det tar inte lång tid förrän han börjar uttala namn från sin torghistoria: Bosse, Margit, Heidi, Bodil, Jef, Tim Jones, Ronny, Mogens. “Detta är lite före min tid, det är gamla bilder. Men jag är nog en av de som har stått här längst nu.” Han pekar på olika människor på torget, förklarar för mig och hojtar uppfordrande på några av dem. Snart har vi namn och telefonnummer, veckodagar och löften om när den och den ur den gamla generationen säkert dyker upp för att hälsa på gamla torgarkompisar. Vi visar bilder för flera intresserade och lyssnar på deras minnen. Amar berättar om sina gamla succéaffärer på torget och vad han investerade allt i. Hamza viftar in oss innanför sina grönsakslådor och visar på telefonen: en video på Tiktok av klipp från Jeans och Torgnys film Kärlek och vilja, med musik och text på arabiska. Han intygar lyckligt: “Detta är livet, detta är Malmö! Detta är mitt liv! Jag älskar Möllevången.” Nils Petter håller fram papperskopiorna, fångar Hamzas blick och förklarar att det är samma fotograf. Hamza ser tvivlande ut, granskar det översta fotografiet i lådan. Nils Petter pekar upp mot Jeans gamla balkong: “Han bodde där!”

Through a scientific program of planting and raising saplings, the organization has performed a miraculous reforestation of the once infertile region and furthered the Salgados’ mission of reversing the damage done to our planet. TASCHEN is proud to reach carbon zero status through our continued partnership.

Emilia Bergmark-Jiménez egen förlossning 2017 tog fyra dygn och lämnade fler traumatiska minnen än hon först trodde. Det var det största som hänt henne men hon kunde efteråt inte förstå hur det är möjligt att föda barn på annat sätt än genom akuta snitt. Ur rädslan och nyfikenheten föddes projektet Svenska förlossningar, där Emilia under de senaste tre åren har närvarat vid och fotograferat ett stort antal födslar. Den här boken berättar i text och bild om tretton av dem och innehåller bilder från många fler, med olika förutsättningar och förlopp. Texten är skriven ur Emilias perspektiv, med samma känsla som hennes första bok En förälders födelse, och kommer att täcka både högaktuella aspekter av förlossningsvården, hur det är att föda barn i Sverige idag, och djupt existentiella frågeställningar. Det är en berättelse om den första gränsen mellan liv och död, och vad som händer med författaren när hon återvänder dit.

Every one of the world's half a million tennis courts is, at its most basic, an identical blank canvas: a 78-foot by 36-foot rectangle, divided by a 3-foot-high net in its centre, and marked with eleven straight lines. But add in the elements of surface, space, wind, acoustics, crowds, shadows, humidity, and even air density, and every tennis court is unique-a work of art. And some are masterpieces.Nick Pachelli curates and profiles 200 of the world's most beautiful, iconic, significant, alluring, and idiosyncratic tennis courts from across the globe, each breathtakingly photographed. He explores the heavyweights, including Wimbledon's All England Lawn Tennis Club, which employs a hawk to keep stray birds from soiling the meticulous lawns. Arthur Ashe, the Grandstand, and Court 17 in Flushing, Queens, where hundreds of thousands of tennis fans gather every summer for the US Open. And there's Court Philippe-Chatrier at Roland-Garros, whose clay seems to take on a different shade-burnt orange, burnt red, burgundy, umber-every time you see it.We visit far-flung treasures, such as Waiheke Tennis Club in New Zealand, where you'll need to take a plane, then a ferry, then a car or bus, and then walk before arriving there. Indoor marvels, including the Tennis Club de Belgique, which evokes the hushed, reverent feeling of a theatre, with skylights illuminating the court and leaving the spectators in the shadows. Hidden jewels, such as the tiny Tennis Club San Stin in Venice, a secret, single outdoor clay court tucked away behind a villa and a 15-foot wall shrouded with vines.There are urban courts, including the Knickerbocker Field Club, deep in the heart of Flatbush, Brooklyn. Academies, like Rafael Nadal's tennis temple in Mallorca, Spain. And the extreme: a single court completely isolated in the wilds of Scotland; a court in northern Spain revealed when the tide goes out, the sand hardens, and the metallic plates that serve as lines re-emerge; and a court in Kenya made out of termite mounds.Throughout, Pachelli not only conducts a masterful, once-in-a-lifetime tour of the world's best courts, but in his writing does something equally immersive: He captures the real passion-some might say obsession-that tennis inspires. Because it's on the court, no matter how grandiose or mundane, whether in an exotic locale or around the corner, where tennis players truly see themselves. Where we come face-to-face with our temperament, our drive, our frustration, our bliss, our longing."This book made me fall in love with tennis all over again."―Rennae Stubbs, former world No. 1 and six-time Grand Slam champion"How had I been so blind? I'd seen a tennis court as an arrangement of lines, neat boxes, a net. This book reveals so much more: spaces within spaces, quirks and surfaces, shadows and light, and the communities most of all. What a gift. I won't look at the game the same way again."―Louisa Thomas, staff writer, The New Yorker"A pure pleasure to read and peruse."―Christopher Clarey, New York Times bestselling author"From Kent to Kenya, Marrakech to Melbourne. Indoors, outdoors. Seaside and underground. Pachelli captures the magic in this masterful book, which celebrates not just tennis, but this topspinning orb we call planet Earth."―Jon Wertheim, New York Times bestselling author and correspondent for 60 Minutes"I've been around tennis all over the world, and this book truly speaks to the beauty and importance of tennis courts, whether at tennis academies or remote public courts. Every tennis player and fan will enjoy this book."―Patrick Mouratoglou, world-renowned tennis coach and founder of Mouratoglou Academy"This book contains hundreds of beautifully photographed tennis courts. The real joy, though, is found in the stories that unfold about each one."―Katrina M. Adams, author and former president of the USTA"Detailing the remote and far-removed to the legendary courts that have hosted the most storied events in tennis history, this gorgeous book lends us a lens to encounter the world."―Caitlin Thompson, founder of Racquet magazine"Can't travel right now? No worries; Nick Pachelli has got you covered. My recommendation: Open the book to a random page and start dreaming away. And who knows? One day you may find yourself exactly there. A truly dreamy book!"―Andrea Petkovic, former top-10 professional tennis player, host, and writer"A stunning celebration of tennis that speaks to the heart of anyone with a passion for a pastime."―Tom Coyne, New York Times bestselling author

Longlisted for the American Library in Paris book award 2026A glorious fusion of history and art, A Vast Horizon tells the story of Pablo Picasso and his free-spirited friends, including Lee Miller and Man Ray, in the tumultuous years around the Second World War.‘Excellent and revealing . . . at the end we feel their loss as if they had been our friends’ - Antony Penrose, Lee Miller Archives'At once intimate and expansive . . . a fascinating portrait' - Clare Mulley, author of Agent ZoLate summer 1937. Europe is inching towards war. In the South of France a group of friends picnic in a secluded clearing. The women have peeled down their dresses to their waists. A couple kiss playfully while the others look on, laughing. The moment is captured in Lee Miller's now-iconic image.Some of the friends are well known, others less so: the dancer Ady Fidelin, the poet Paul Éluard and his wife Nusch, the Surrealists Man Ray and Roland Penrose. They are spending the summer with fellow artists Dora Maar, Eileen Agar and Pablo Picasso.In A Vast Horizon biographer Anna Thomasson tells the story of their creativity, friendships and pursuit of freedom set against the tense political backdrop of the 1930s, the Second World War and its aftermath. Tracing their lives through their photographs, artworks, poems and letters, from the heady weeks of creativity, sex and collaboration of that Mediterranean summer through the tumultuous years that followed, it is the story of rebellious lives and the redemptive power of art.

Café 6:an, en liten och omodern men mycket populär kaffeservering, låg mellan åren 1965 och 1983 på Skeppsbron 6 i Stockholm. Där kunde såväl byggarbetare som ambassadpersonal och konstnärer inta grötfrukostar, matiga lunchmackor med pannbiffar eller eftermiddagskaffe med nygräddad sockerkaka.
I november 1983 dokumenterade Lennart Engström, då elev på Nordens fotoskola, Café 6:an. Han fotograferade de två äldre damer som drev rörelsen, lokalen de arbetade i samt de många stamgästerna. Idag, när så många kaféer i Stockholms innerstad drivs av stora affärskedjor, visar hans bilder hur en rörelse av detta slag kunde drivas genom både stort engagemang och personliga uppoffringar.
I Lennart Engströms fotografier och Bo Larssons inledande text, som bygger på intervjuer med innehavarnas döttrar, upplevs Stockholms kafékultur från förr.

TÄLTPROJEKTET! Den stora teaterturnén om den svenska arbetarrörelsens historia, som gick genom Sverige under sommaren 1977, har väl undgått få. Ett gigantiskt teaterkoncept, som bara blev möjligt genom gemensamma, solidariska insatser av ett gäng entusiastiska skådespelare, manusförfattare, musiker, filmare och aktivister.
Här fanns namn som Sven Wollter, Johannes Brost, Eva Remæus, Ninne Olsson, Totta Näslund, Ulf Dageby, bröderna Segerström, Anki Rahlskog, Sonja Lund, Björn Granath och många, många flera.
Pjäsen gestaltade hela historien från August Palms första tal i Malmö till Olof Palmes dagar som de själva levde i. Nästan hundra föreställningar blev det, från Luleå i norr till Köpenhamn i söder. De höll på i nära fem månader. Omöjligheten låg i brist på pengar och i logistiken.
Men det gick - och det gick bra. Bortåt 100 000 människor kom, såg, lyssnade och förundrades.
TÄLTBOKEN: Att göra det omöjliga möjligt fångar detta historiska projekt. Främst i bild, men också i text. Det är en bok som vill ge inspiration och hopp i till synes hopplösa tider. Kunde dessa människor, liksom från ingenstans, utan pengar och möjligheter, skapa ett av de största tältteaterprojekten genom tiderna, så borde inget vara omöjligt. Tillsammans går det. TÄLTBOKEN är beviset.
"...grundligt och detaljerat om hur allt började, och hur det genomfördes. (...) Tältprojektet var storslaget och unikt och det hade inte varit genomförbart utan det magnifika samarbetet. Denna kollektiva bragd var också en del av magin under föreställningarna. (...) Tältboken är ett viktigt historiskt dokument och författarna hoppas att deras äventyr ska inspirera vår tids unga. Helhetsbetyg: 5 (av 5)." BTJ, Ylva Floreman
"Det är en detaljrik och faktatät prosa vi har att göra med. (...) "Tältbokens" stora behållning är i stället det rika bildmaterialet. Både själva teaterföreställningen, förberedelserna och livet runtomkring är representerat mellan pärmarna. Det är progg- och 70-talspornografi i sin bästa form: gigantiska pilotglasögon, bröstfickor som putar ut av cigarettpaket, inte en bh så långt ögat kan nå. (...) På så vis är "Tältboken" ett beaktansvärt tidsdokument över en tid och en rörelse som bevisade att allt är möjligt - även det omöjliga." Göteborgs-Posten, Linus Kuhlin

I sin nya bok återvänder Simon Johansson till samma domäner som låg till grund för hans debutbok, Across the Bridge (2016). Nu som då är det inte bara en serie vardagliga observationer – det är dags att knyta ihop lösa ändar och avsluta. No Man’s Land handlar om en nära krets av människor i en liten by på Öland. Här bor bönder sida vid sida med ett konstnärskollektiv. Deras liv och arbete är sammanflätade. Bönderna engagerar sig i konstprojekt och konstnärerna deltar i odlingen. Efter att ha bott många år där känner Simon Johansson byborna väl. Han har sett dynamiken på nära håll. – Genom att skildra vardagen i byn beskriver jag den universella driften att vara betydelsefull för andra, att vara en del av ett sammanhang, säger Simon Johansson. – Utgångspunkten för projektet är min egen upplevelse av när det sammanhanget togs ifrån mig. Slutet på ett förhållande förvandlades till ett känslomässigt trauma. Det handlar om hur mitt liv i byn faller samman och hur jag lämnar en älskad plats. Fotografen arbetar med No Man's Land-soundtracket som kommer att släppas på alla digitala plattformar och på vinyl 2024. Texterna till låtarna finns med som en separat del i boken.

Whitening Heights is both photography and a way of life at once. Inspired by the Alpine sun that seems to drain everything of colour, Sandro Livio Straube has been creating an ongoing series of images since 2015 that express a sense of deceleration and desaturation. Through this exercise in observation, looking at the world through the camera lens, he explores themes of transience, the vulnerability of all living beings, and the fragility of the environment created by humankind. The black-and-white and colour photographs taken in the Alpine valley of Lumnezia bear witness to a fulfilled presence that reveals things in all their inherent beauty. The three accompanying texts shed light on various aspects of this photographic work, with passages in Rheto-Romanic and Swiss German that also convey something of the attitude to life in this valley of light.Text in German, English, Rheto-Romanic and Swiss German.

Trace JR’s evolution from his Parisian origins, tagging rooftops and subway cars, to his emergence as an artist of extraordinary scale. The tag is a declaration of presence, and JR never leaves that impulse behind. Instead, he expands it, turning city bridges, favelas, and prison exercise yards into canvases for collective visibility.His lineage runs from William Hogarth and Eugène Delacroix through Francisco Goya to Diego Rivera. Public portraiture is reimagined for the 21st century with works that embrace but also reject digital artifice. In an age of Photoshop and AI, his materials—paper, paste, human collaboration—are resolutely real. There’s illusion, but only in his epic trompe l’œils.From Paris to global conflict zones, he moves toward tension, not away from it. Projects like Face 2 Face collapse political distance via paired portraits, while his vast Chronicles transform communities into panoramic peoplescapes, echoing the narrative sweep of historical murals. Works like Mayra, Picnic across the Border are staged encounters as much as images—curated spaces where barriers, physical and psychological, momentarily dissolve.Throughout, he recontextualizes: architecture becomes canvas, strangers become protagonists, fleeting actions become enduring images. Rooted in photography, his work reaches far beyond it. His art unfolds through participation, scale, and shared authorship, where the most powerful outcome is often intangible—the conversations it sets in motion.This engrossing volume examines all his major works, with behind-the-scenes photography and extended essays.

In every crisis situation, children are the greatest victims. Physically weak, they are often the first to succumb to hunger, disease, and dehydration. Innocent to the workings and failings of the world, they are unable to understand why there is danger, why there are people who want to hurt them, or why they must leave, perhaps quite suddenly, and abandon their schools, their friends, and their home.In this companion series to Exodus, Sebastião Salgado presents 90 portraits of the youngest exiles, migrants, and refugees. His subjects are from different countries, victims to different crises, but they are all on the move, and all under the age of 15. Through his extensive refugee project, what struck Salgado about these boys and girls was not only the implicit innocence in their suffering but also their radiant reserves of energy and enthusiasm, even in the most miserable of circumstances. From roadside refuges in Angola and Burundi to city slums in Brazil and sprawling camps in Lebanon and Iraq, the children remained children: they were quick to laugh as much as to cry, they played soccer, splashed in dirty water, got up to mischief with friends, and were typically ecstatic at the prospect of being photographed.For Salgado, the exuberance presented a curious paradox. How can a smiling child represent circumstances of deprivation and despair? What he noticed, though, was that when he asked the children to line up, and took their portraits one by one, the group giddiness would fade. Face to face with his camera, each child would become much more serious. They would look at him not as part of a noisy crowd, but as an individual. Their poses would become earnest. They looked into the lens with a sudden intensity, as if abruptly taking stock of themselves and their situation. And in the expression of their eyes, or the nervous fidget of small hands, or the way frayed clothes hung off painfully thin frames, Salgado found he had a refugee portfolio that deserved a forum of its own.The photographs do not try to make a statement about their subjects’ feelings, or to spell out the particulars of their health, educational, and housing deficits. Rather, the collection allows 90 children to look out at the viewer with all the candor of youth and all the uncertainty of their future. Beautiful, proud, pensive, and sad, they stand before the camera for a moment in their lives, but ask questions that haunt for years to come. Will they remain in exile? Will they always know an enemy? Will they grow up to forgive or seek revenge? Will they grow up at all?

Explore the scientific crescendo of the Manhattan Project through newly contextualized and never-before-seen photographs from Los Alamos National Laboratory’s legacy collections—some just declassified. Twenty-one days before the world learned of the atomic bomb through its wartime use against Japan, a team of scientists led by J. Robert Oppenheimer detonated the first nuclear device on a remote stretch of New Mexico desert, in an operation codenamed Trinity. Both a military proof test and an elaborate, well-documented scientific experiment, the Trinity shot on July 16, 1945, brought under the control of humankind a new fire: the energy of the atom. In this expertly curated journey through the beginning of the atomic age, hundreds of carefully restored photographs, still frames, and once-secret documents bring new and vivid focus to a watershed moment in science and history. Written for all to understand, Trinity weaves steadily through subplots and surprises set against the evolving, looming backdrop of a world at war. It shadows the humans and hardware at work in the rugged landscape of the test operation; dissects a fiery mushroom cloud unfurling frame by frame, frozen in time; and follows soldiers, scientists, and two atomic bombs across the Pacific Ocean to Tinian Island, onto the strike planes Enola Gay and Bockscar, and to Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the two Japanese cities devastated on August 6 and 9, 1945. Inviting readers into the clandestine spaces where a new era began—behind the cameras, the bunker doors, the gates and guard posts—Trinity strives, grieves, celebrates, and ponders. It artfully captures that extraordinary summer when scientists invented urgently in the waning months of the “before”—and the tension between violence and progress, hope and fear, that persists into the after.

Imagined as a sequel to the Old and New Testaments of the Bible by Magnum photographer Jonas Bendiksen, The Last Testament features visual accounts and stories of seven men around the world who claim to be the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Building on biblical form and structure, chapters dedicated to each Jesus include excerpts of their scriptural testaments, laying out their theology and demands on mankind in their own words. Through Bendiksen’s personal testimonies and intimate portraits, The Last Testament investigates the boundaries of religious faith, and a world in need of salvation, yearning for a new prophet. Whether escaping an angry mob in the streets with the Jesus of Kitwe, joining a Messianic birthday pilgrimage in Siberia, or witnessing the End of Days with Moses in South Africa, Bendiksen immerses himself among the disciples of each Jesus. He takes at face value that each is the one true Messiah returned to Earth, to forge an account that’s both a work of apocalyptic journalism and of a compelling artistic imagination.

The best photo assignments from the Monocle archive, published to mark the magazine's fifteenth anniversary. Back in 2007 the first issues of Monocle magazine hit newsstands and kiosks around the globe. At its core was a pledge to commission all original photography – capturing the world on film, on the ground and in the moment. The cover of that first issue featured a Japanese helicopter pilot from the country's defence force – taken as part of a 10-day reportage assignment for both photographer and writer. In the years since, Monocle has continued in its pursuit of documenting the world through its unique lens – from embassies and residences to world leaders and cultural stars. Each issue has featured a dedicated photographic Expo section celebrating lesser-known locales, obscure events and curious characters through truly outstanding photography. Alpine wrestlers, Syrian outposts, French legionnaires, noodle-makers, game show hosts and private member’s clubs have all graced the pages. The Monocle Book of Photography draws on the best of these photographic stories from an archive a decade and a half in the making. A handsome linen bound edition with the highest quality gloss paper and printing, the book also features supporting text about the photo assignments and the stories behind them, including first hand accounts from the photographers involved.
