| Edited and with Text by Stephanie Cannizzo. Published by JRP|RingierBorn in Amsterdam in 1957, Ari Marcopoulos came to New York in 1979 and quickly became part of a downtown art scene that included Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring and Robert Mapplethorpe. Since then, Marcopoulos has become recognized as a leading documentarian of contemporary culture, having chronicled the emerging hip hop scene, shot snowboarders in action and revealed the vicissitudes of his family life. Marcopoulos always appears to have forged a strong connection with the people he photographs, whether celebrated figures—from Andy Warhol to Kiki Smith, John Cage to LL Cool J—or more obscure personalities, so that he captures, without sentimentality or voyeurism, the intimate sensation of their daily lives. His images are particular to a time and place, but reach out to us via familiar themes such as family and the longing for adventure. The first retrospective on Marcopoulos, Within Arm's Reach collects work from three decades, and is supplemented with an essay by Stephanie Cannizzo.

| Published by NievesAmsterdam-born photographer and filmmaker Ari Marcopoulos (1957) has become a familiar name to skaters and rockers, as well as to artists and international scenesters. Ad Rock is a concise portrait of Adam Horovitz from the Beastie Boys, filled with years of photographs of the musician at work, with his friends and at home. Following Marcopoulos' study of the internationally renowned snowboarder, Terje Haakonsen, it is the second in a series of portrait books that features subjects up close and unguarded, simply living their lives. Ari Marcopoulos has work in the current international traveling exhibition Beautiful Losers, and recently had solo exhibitions at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in California and P.S.1 in New York. His photographs are regularly featured in The New York Times Magazine.

| Terje HaakonsenPublished by NievesAmsterdam-born photographer and filmmaker Ari Marcopoulos has become a familiar name to skaters and rockers (Pass the Mic), as well as to artists and scenesters (Out and About). The Cat features his work in the world of snowboarding: it is a portrait of the Norwegian boarder Terje Haakonsen, filled with years of photographs not just of "the Cat" at work but of his life, his family, his friends, his home. Haakonsen (born in 1974) is widely considered one of the most influential snowboarders of all time. He was one of the sport's early icons, and was half-pipe world champion three years in a row not long after that contest was established. This is the first book of a series of Marcopoulos portraits of subjects in the context of their home lives.

| Edited by Angelique Spaninks. Text by Angelique Spaninks, Jeremy Sigler, Will Bradley. Published by Veenman PublishersWhether photographing his wife and two young sons, sometimes sleeping tenderly together in a sun-drenched bed, other times spacing out by the pool or in the car; the international snowboarding scene, from Japan to Iran; or his peers in the world of dissenting, outsider creativity (filmmaker Harmony Korine and his grandmother, well before the release of Kids; the late monologist, Spalding Gray, who died of suicidal drowning in 2004, eerily photographed floating underwater in 1987), Ari Marcopoulos brings us all the way to the inside of an insider's world. This tight collection of sexy documentary portraits bites off exactly as much as it wants to chew, and features original writing by Will Bradley, Jeremy Sigler and Angelique Spaninks.

| Photographs by Ari Marcopoulos. Published by JRP|RingierAri Marcopoulos is best known for documenting boyish subcultures from the inside out. His work on professional snowboarding appears in Transitions and Exits and his photos on hip-hop--five years of images of the Beastie Boys--in Pass the Mic. Aaron Rose, who showed Marcopoulos at Alleged Gallery, has said of the artist's uncanny connection with one set of subjects, a crowd of New York skateboarders ten years his junior, "There was just something in his personality that said, 'Hey man, it's cool.'" It shows. Marcopoulos's self-taught snapshot style brings his subjects in close, and captures, without sentimentality or voyeurism, the intimate feeling of their daily life. Here he focuses on the subculture that is his own family. Even the President of the United States Sometimes Has Got to Stand Naked is a journal-like collection of images of the accidents and pleasures of "normal" life, full of the artist's loved ones, of landscapes and of American social reality.

| Essay by Aaron Rose. Published by DamianiAri Marcopoulos immerses himself completely in the personalities and scenes he has photographed, but more than that, he seems to always be anticipating the zeitgeist. As a result, he has become one of our chief documenters of contemporary culture, as it emerges. Whether he was hanging in the East Village in the 1980s at age 23 as Warhol's assistant (and snapping Basquiat at his most intimate), recording the burgeoning hip-hop scene of the late 1980s, riding along with multi-ethnic New York skateboard kids in the 1990s, or shooting snowboard schussers hurtling down a mountain (or chilling in the lodge) in recent years, Marcopoulos's pictures always penetrate the heart of the underground of the moment and its denizens. This volume is the first in a new, ambitious series called Alleged Press, a collaboration between Damiani and the renowned curator Aaron Rose.
