Black Books

The black books are the more popular and cheaper line of artist’s books. They are concerned with finding patterns within the behavior of modern photography. Here, though I have begun focusing on the repetition of word, rather than the repetition of image. These are books about photography but from a more “light-hearted” perspective. The editions of the black books are unlimited, the books are neither numbered nor signed. They are also obtainable either through this website or directly at the printer’s online bookstore.

Cool Pictures, Cool Stuff, 21×13 cm, 120 pages, 116 photographs, softcover 12 € , hardcover 24 €
