Part memoir, part document of the DIY, punk-infused subculture of skateboarding as it came of age in the 1990s and early 2000s, Ed Templeton’s Wires Crossed pulses with the raw, combustive energy of Templeton’s image-making from the last twenty-plus years.Illustrated by photographs, collages, texts, maps, and other ephemera from Templeton’s journals, Wires Crossed offers an insider’s look at a subculture in the making and reflects the unique aesthetic stamp that sprang from the skate world he helped create. Templeton occupies the rare position of having been a professional skateboarder, a two-time World Skateboarding champion, as well as a photographer and artist working within the skateboard community as it gained increasing cultural currency in the 1990s and beyond. His work first gained recognition as part of the Beautiful Losers collective loosely gathered around Aaron Rose’s Alleged Gallery on Manhattan’s Lower East Side.This work, much of it previously unpublished and unseen, explores Templeton’s own journey as an image maker, as well as the lives of professional skateboarders as they spent long hours crisscrossing the world on tour, reveling in their newfound status as rock star–like figures and the eternal search for new terrain to skate. Interviews between Templeton and fellow pro-skaters and friends add compelling detail about the pressures and pleasures of life on the road, and what it’s like to obsessively pursue an art form—whether on their decks or behind the camera.

But one story stands apart from the rest . . .She is a woman as fabulous, unbowed, and irresistible as the city she lives in.Meet TANQUERAY.In 2019, Humans of New York featured a photo of a woman in an outrageous fur coat and hat she made herself.

Sophie Howarth's insightful and soothing texts work as a guide to both a mindful approach to photography, and a photographic approach to meditation. Offered in a highly affordable and pocketable format, this will be the must-have companion for anyone seeking the spiritual benefits of creative practice and a more mindful approach to engaging with their world through photography.

Metrovia af Krass Clement er en bog om Buenos Aires, men ikke i gængs forstand som en bog om hele denne by med dens arkitektur og kendte pladser. Snarere en beskrivelse af den følelse, der vækkes ved et sted, og som i bogen reflekteres i en vekslen mellem det umiddelbart registrerede  og den subjektive fortolkning. Forstået på den måde, at det sete vendes og redigeres i løbet af bogen, så det efterhånden opløser det konkrete for at antage en mere abstrakt form, som indkredser stemningen. Selvfølgelig får vi en fornemmelse af  byens fysiske karakter, men mest fastholdes atmosfæren gennem en gentagen tilbagevenden til byens undergrundsbane, Metrovia, med alt, hvad netop den udbyder af menneskelig mangfoldighed. Der veksles vider mellem tilbagekommende temaer, bl.a. det naturhistoriske museum, som på et konkret plan er et udtryk for en saglig videnskabelighed, men som i bogen efterhånden får en uvirkelig og flydende betydning.Byen har en umiddelbar genkendelighed ved sit stærke europæiske islæt, som kalder på en genkendelse, der dog alligevel forbliver en fremmed. Netop i det umærkelige tvist mellem på den ene side hvad, der synes kendt og på den anden side en fjern og fremmed verdensdel, udfolder bogen sig.Vi kan umiddelbart finde os selv, men i et samfund udsat for et snigende men voldsomt pres, der som en undertone gennemstrømmer stemningen. Vi forbliver trods alt fremmede overfor den anonyme menneskestrøm.I undergrundsbanen, på tango-restauranter, ved en lukket karrusel - steder som giver mindelser om et gammelt Europa,  opstår oplevelsen af noget statisk, af noget, som ikke er mere, dog er det en moderne metropol med et utal af forskydninger.
