Savages & Sinners
John Maitland
Sydney: The Macquarie Head Press, 1933.“This work is described by Miller as presenting ‘social and economic phases of life in mandated territories of the Northern Pacific and the sex-attitudes of whites and blacks’. The dedication and the author’s note suggest that it is a fictionalised re-telling of a diary kept by a Captain Tyarki. Whether this captain is an actual figure or a fictional persona is unclear.” (Auslit) This copy signed by the author to the title page.

At Water’s Edge
Paul Blackmore
Sydney: T&G Publishing, 2012.“At Water’s Edge, the long-awaited publication from photographer Paul Blackmore, explores the relationship between humanity and its most vital natural resource. This extraordinary body of work – spanning 11 years and 14 countries – provides a global look at how water flows through the spiritual and physical daily lives of people around the world. The photographs poignantly illustrate the unfolding drama of the global water crisis and how it is affecting those caught up in it: a billion people without access to clean water, another four billion without an adequate supply. Against this dire backdrop, the work also celebrates the quiet, yet essential connection with nature that water offers us.” (publisher’s blurb)

Narcolepsy
Max Pam; Bob Charles
Sydney: T&G Publishing, 2012.“Narcolepsy radically delivers a process that shakes-up the form of the book to produce the art as book and the book as art. The book is a fully realised graphic vehicle. The ways in which the book operates as a series of closures and openings, also parallels the content of the book and amplifies it as an evocative, mysterious object. Narcolepsy is loaded with the poetics of sex and death realised through an exciting fusion of drawing, painting, text and photography. Narcolepsy is a disturbingly ambiguous novella in pictures and words by Max Pam (photographer) and Bob Charles (writer).” (publisher’s blurb)
-
Rage Against The Light
Markus Andersen
Sydney: T&G Publishing, 2015.“Markus Andersen’s photographs feature the city of Sydney as an abstracted backdrop for a fragile human presence, one dwarfed by overwhelming architectural development and consumerism. In these moody black-and-white images, people scurry about and are literally exposed by light. Struck by shafts of illumination between buildings, they are like insects coming out for food.” (publisher’s blurb)

No Worries
Martin Parr
Sydney: T&G Publishing, 2011.“In 2011 Magnum photographer Martin Parr set out to photograph three Western Australian port cities, Fremantle, Port Hedland and Broome. Each town was a unique setting for a photographer famed for his images of British seaside culture in the publication Last Resort. Using his unmistakably intimate and satirical style, Parr went about photographing Australian cliches, full of saturated colours and flash photography. The resulting photographs, published here for the first time, are an invaluable collection from this world-renowned British photographer.” (publisher’s blurb)
