Greer Lankton: Could It Be Love

Edited by Francis Schichtel, Jordan Weitzman, Nan Goldin. Text by Hilton Als.

This is the first monograph on the trans visionary artist Greer Lankton (1958–96), whose lifelike doll sculptures shocked 1980s New York. Lankton's dolls, which she began making as a child and produced obsessively until her death at age 38, were a means to explore her fraught relationship with the human body. In the book's 100 photographs, all shot by Lankton herself, these figures take on a life of their own, kvetching at a party, strolling along a beach, or lounging on a stoop in the East Village. Among this extraordinary cast of oddballs—usually femme, often freakish, always radiating a glamorous . . . .go to book page >>

Anne Day: Les Flashes D'Anne

Edited by Jordan Weitzman.

In the fall of 2013, the house of American photographer Anne Day burnt to the ground. A few of her prints and negatives survived in a file cabinet but had become completely charred: only remnants of images and traces of a younger self remained. A close friend of hers in the early 1980s was the French photographer and author Hervé Guibert (1955–91). They worked together on magazine assignments for Le Monde, profiling Orson Welles, Jane Fonda and the antique dealer Madeleine Castaing, to name a few. When not working, they took day trips to the seaside; Guibert introduced Day to . . . .go to book page >>

Hervé Guibert: The Only Face

Designed by Jordan Weitzman. Translated by Christine Pichini. Cover art by Marc Hundley.

This photobook by Hervé Guibert, The Only Face, is not a novel in the traditional sense but is nonetheless filled with characters, settings and mystery. It starts with bodies—their faces either eclipsed or out of frame—before unleashing a bravura sequence of portraits: friends, lovers, family and Guibert himself. As the book approaches its finale, his subjects are obscured and then disappear completely, leaving behind the objects they touched, until even those vanish, leaving only light.
Most of the photographs in The Only Face were taken on Guibert’s European and American travels, but their settings are, with few exceptions, small private interiors. . . . .go to book page >>

NEW PUBLICATION

The Places of Marguerite Duras

Edited by Jordan Weitzman. Introduction by Durga Chew-Bose. Translated by Alison L. Strayer. Conversation with Marguerite Duras, Michelle Porte.

\ I could talk for hours about this house, this garden. I know it all, I know where every old door is, everything, the walls of the pond, all the plants, the location of every plant, even the wild plants I know the place of, everything.\ So begins Marguerite Duras’ rhapsody on the spaces she has inhabited throughout her life. The Places of Marguerite Duras was filmed and aired as a two-part television documentary in 1976. Her reminiscences are structured around her memories of specific locations: her house in Neauphle-le-Château; her childhood home in French Indochina, which inspired her acclaimed novel . . . .go to book page >>
