Running Fence
by Geoffrey James
Welsh-born, Toronto-based photographer Geoffrey James is known for his work in culturally charged landscapes. Running Fence documents the first 14 miles of the border fence separating the United States and Mexico. With its ironic reference to Christo, James' Running Fence explores the contradictions of the border in the context of globalization. Of this project James writes, "I photographed along both sides of the fence -- this strange, improvised barrier demarcating two cultures, two mentalities, and two economies, that are also one I went to the border as an outsider. What I came back with can make no claim to be anything other than the astonished presentation of facts." James has exhibited internationally at documenta 9 at Kassel and at major museums throughout North America.
Kenneth Josephson
by Sylvia Wolf
Kenneth Josephson has been called "a photograher's photographer" since his late 1960s arrival at the forefront of conceptual photography. His work is inspired by a philosophical inquiry into photography's place within artistic expression, and consequently his photographs often take as their subject the medium itself. Perhaps best known for his pictures within pictures -- an outstretched arm holding a photograph of a ship over the distant ocean horizon -- Josephson has created a fascinating body of work through his innovative handling of perspective and scale and his combination of reality and reproduction. He has brought his highly original sensibility to different genres, from documenting street life in India to nude portraiture, to, most recently, large-format landscapes of England and France. Accompanying a major retrospective exhibition at The Art Institute of Chicago, this catalogue will span his entire career and include some 30 works never before published, an interview with the artist, a complete chronology, and two essays. In its scope and currency, this comprehensive monograph is the definitive record of Josephson's career.

Imprints
by David Plowden
From small towns and cityscapes to railroads and bridges, David Plowden has devoted his career to memorializing the vestiges of America's industrial and rural past. In his photographs and writings, he explores the beauty, power, blight, and significance of these once commonplace icons and vistas - and captures the visual texture of a bygone America on the verge of vanishing. His work is clear-eyed, rigorous, and ultimately ambivalent rather than nostalgic; steel mills, for instance, are "at once magnificent and apocalyptic - a definitive expression of mankind's inherently productive and creative, as well as destructive, nature". This book, published in conjunction with a series of retrospective exhibitions across America, looks back over Plowden's entire career and presents the very best of his work.
