Book Description
The North American frontier is an enduring symbol of romance, rebellion, escape, and freedom. At the same time, it's a profoundly masculine myth--cowboys, outlaws, Beat poets. Photographer Justine Kurland reclaimed this space in her now-iconic series of images of teenage girls, taken between 1997 and 2002 on the road in the American wilderness. "I staged the girls as a standing army of teenaged runaways in resistance to patriarchal ideals," says Kurland. She portrays the girls as fearless and free, tender and fierce. They hunt and explore, braid each other's hair, and swim in sun-dappled watering holes--paying no mind to the camera (or the viewer). Their world is at once lawless and utopian, a frontier Eden in the wild spaces just outside of suburban infrastructure and ideas. Twenty years on, the series still resonates, published here in its entirety and including newly discovered, unpublished images.

Book Description
After the end of World War II, the American road trip began appearing prominently in literature, music, movies, and photography. Many photographers embarked on trips across the U.S. in order to create work, including Robert Frank, whose seminal 1955 road trip resulted in The Americans. However, he was preceded by Edward Weston, who traveled across the country taking pictures to illustrate Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass; Henri Cartier-Bresson, whose 1947 trip through the American South and into the West was published in the early 1950s in Harper's Bazaar; and Ed Ruscha, whose road trips between Los Angeles and Oklahoma later became Twentysix Gasoline Stations. Hundreds of photographers have continued the tradition of the photographic road trip on down to the present, from Stephen Shore to Taiyo Onorato and Nico Krebs. The Open Road considers the photographic road trip as a genre in and of itself, and presents the story of photographers for whom the American road is muse. The book features David Campany's introduction to the genre and eighteen chapters presented chronologically, each exploring one American road trip in depth through a portfolio of images and informative texts, highlighting some of the most important bodies of work made on the road from The Americans to present day.

Book Description
Since the end of the apartheid era, Cape Town, South Africa?s metropolis par excellence, has become a major tourist destination, offering sunny backdrops for commercials and homes for the moneyed classes. Obscene levels of unemployment and the daily struggle for survival among the impoverished are rarely visible behind this veneer. The South African photographer David Lurie unmasks the "other" Cape Town, in the early morning hours, when the city is still asleep, delicate and vulnerable. His series Morning After Dark deals with the infrastructure of public and private places and its influence on the city's residents--from rich to poor. The second series in the book, Writing the City, considers the city's surfaces: urban landscapes that include billboards, street signs, graffiti and street art. What are they saying? Who are they speaking to? How do they direct society, and to where? Lurie offers a highly pensive study in fascinating and original images.

Book Description
A powerful fog has consumed the mysterious realm of Jo'Hanna... Conner James, a bullied foster child with no links to his past, awakens on his thirteenth birthday in the suburbs of Caskel, CA. Outside his window lies a fallen elm in the middle of the road. Has Conner seen this elm before... or was it in a dream? On his way to school, he encounters Miko - a boy claiming to be his best friend from another world called Jo'Hanna. A journey begins with a chase through a train station, down a raging waterfall, and up a ladder into the foggy woods of Jo'Hanna. Conner's memories gradually re-emerge as well as strange empathic abilities, discovering most children are being held inside the Koval - a maze-like fortress ruled by the sadistic teenage dictator, O'Riley. Conner's return ignites an inevitable uprising among a unique group of resisters determined to free the Koval from O'Riley and his followers, as well as returning peace and prosperity to Jo'Hanna. The Keepers of Jo'Hanna is a coming-of-age epic grounded in the realities of a generation finding courage in a society overthrown by tyranny. An adventure of friendship, identity, trauma, and loss with the notion of learning from the past, surviving in the present, and striving for the future.
