Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. For more than 20 years, Swedish photographer JH Engstrm (born 1969) has spent time living and working in Paris, a city that, like New York, has a long photographic pedigree; countless photographers have been inspired by its iconic architecture and busy streets. "Sketch of Paris," however, is hardly a catalog of classic Parisian scenes, offering instead a raw yet lyrical portrayal of the artist's misadventures, loves and random encounters in its streets, bars and artist lofts--an entirely personal Paris. Drawing more from Nan Goldin and Anders Peters than Atget or Henri Cartier-Bresson, Engstrm brings us on a gritty, no-holds-barred guided tour of life in his adopted city. The book brings together more than 250 color and black-and-white photographs--self-portraits, nudes, portraits of lovers, friends, strangers and the occasional street scene--all shot between 1991 and 2012, tracing a critical time during the development of the artist's own voice and vision. Sketch of Paris captures Engstroems personal homage to Paris, the influential city that shaped him as an artist Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: No dust jacket as issued. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. Orange cloth-covered boards with tipped-in four-color plate on cover and title stamped in black on rear cover and spine; no dust jacket as issued. Photographs by J.H. Engström. 112 pp., with four-color plates throughout. 9-1/4 x 12 inches. New in publisher's shrink wrap. From the publisher: "To most people an airport used to represent a place of optimism. An open place, oozing with expectations and encounters. Recent world events have changed all that. Today an airport is a completely different experience. Armed police officers, restrictions and safety regulations only help to increase our feelings of insecurity. Roissy Charles de Gaulle Airport has always been a special place for JH Engström. At the age of ten he moved to Paris with his parents. Charles de Gaulle was his first contact with the world outside his native Sweden. The move created a very intense relationship to the city of Paris, but also to the Charles de Gaulle and airports in general. For this project he spent three weeks isolated in an airport hotel, photographing in and between the terminals. The airport became a place to observe identities and the history of relations. With fiction, poetry and mystery he observes it. Raising questions of social, urban and architectural dimensions.". …

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. Dark blue cloth-covered boards with title stamped on spine; with photographically illustrated dust jacket. Photographs by J.H. Engström. 216 pp., with four-color and black-and-white plates throughout. 12-1/4 x 9-7/8 inches. New in publisher's shrink wrap. From the publisher: "Haunts can be seen as part two of a trilogy which began with Trying to Dance, JH Engström's artist's book project which was short-listed for the 2005 Deutsche Börse Photography Prize. At the back of Trying to Dance JH Engström wrote, 'I'm always looking for presence. Whenever I try, my doubts get unmasked.' These doubts and questions are prelevant in Haunts, but in this volume Engström focuses more on public spaces and life in the streets. At the center of JH Engström's pictures is a strong feeling of being in an endless present tense. The confrontation between 'now' and the photographer's memories is inevitable. And he doesn't try to separate emotions from objectivity. His images embody their questions.".…

Condition: Sehr gut. ca. 50 unpaginierte Seiten Zustand: sauber & frisch. // In ihrem gemeinsamen Buch dokumentieren JH Engström und Margot Wallard die aufgeheizte Atmosphäre in der griechischen Hauptstadt während der schwersten Phase der Wirtschaftskrise. Die Bilder zeigen eine Stadt im Ausnahmezustand, geprägt von politischen Unruhen, Straßenschlachten und dem Rücktritt der Regierung Papandreou. In einem für Engström typischen, rohen und subjektiven Stil fangen die Fotografien sowohl die Hektik der Proteste als auch die tiefe Frustration und Verwirrung der Menschen ein. Ursprünglich für einen Workshop angereist, nutzten die Künstler die unfreiwillige Freizeit, um das Chaos und die düstere Stimmung jener sieben Tage in einer Mischung aus Schwarz-Weiß- und Farbaufnahmen als unmittelbare Street-Reportage festzuhalten.

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. "In photography, JH Engstrom isn't trying to explain, but rather to render a profound experience of the absurdity of the human condition. These images moves us into a disquieting part of ourselves: our solitude on earth." That is how Jean-Louis Godefroid ends his foreword to JH Engström's book, the result of two scholarship sojourns at the Contretype photo organization i Brussels. The book consists of 29 triptychs of a snapshot character, sandwiched by diary reflections and 29 photos harbouring those characteristics that have turned JH Engström into one of the most revered Swedish photographers. In Foam photo magazine, Nan Goldin wrote: "JH Engström is never an easy read. I usually have a facility for perceiving a photographer's intentions through viewing the work, but with JH it's about learning a new language. The intensity of each moment one experiences with him is seductive, inspiring " and he's always struggling to be more alive. He hovers, restless, questioning, circling . The genius of this project lies in the juxtaposition of his displacement, his unease in the normal environment he finds so banal and the comfort and familiarity he feels in the tedium of bar life." 116 color images Foreword by Jean-Louis Godefroid Text by JH Engström Text editing: JH Engström, Gösta Flemming Text translation: Martine Desbureaux, Maria Ridelberg-Lemoine, Linda Schenk, Einar Heckscher, Gösta Flemming Picture editing: Greger Ulf Nilson, JH Engström Design: Greger Ulf Nilson Hard cover 184 x 248 mm 180 pages 29 fold-outs Swedish/French/English.…

Hardcover. Condition: New. In 2004, I made the book Trying to Dance, designed by Patric Leo and published by Journal. Since then, it has lived a life of its own, just as books should do. For me, Trying to Dance is more than a book the photographs on which it was based constitute an image universe of its own. Photography then had a liberating effect on me as a visual artist. I lived mostly in New York, but also in Värmland, Sweden, and travelled a lot in the United States and Europe. Mentally, I was in between worlds, between realities, between the urban and the rural. This was also a period when I questioned and doubted the importance and relevance of photography for me actually. The freedom I so strongly experienced in the process of making Trying to Dance, largely answered my doubts and became a compass for my continued creativity. To start with, I was not at all certain when Gösta Flemming at Journal, Patric Leo and Christian Caujolle, suggested going back to the Trying to Dance negatives. But when I started looking through the files so many images, so many that were not used in Trying to Dance, and so many new combinations that hit me; it was then that I decided that we should publish Revoir. Revoir is a completely new book, a revision, a revisit to that period between the mid-90s and the early 2000s. The book has been made in close and enjoyable collaboration with all the people that I worked with on Trying to Dance. Around two thirds of the photographs have not been published before. For the first time I have scanned the negatives, together with Ewa-Teréz Gölin, and allowed the present to guide me in the printing for Revoir. Christian Caujolle has written a text for the book. This makes me especially happy, since he was the first to whole-heartedly embrace and recognise the photographs then, almost 17 years ago. / JH Engström 174 b/w and colour images Text by Christian Caujolle Translation to English: Frédérique Destribats and to Swedish: Gösta Flemming Editing: Patric Leo, JH Engström, Gösta Flemming Design and layout: Patric Leo Co-published with Akio Nagasawa Publishing Hard cover 225 x 280 mm 244 pages French/English/Swedish.…
