Wonderful book about the architecture of the book and its display + circulation.
Beautiful design as always when Dayanita Singh and Steidl collaborate. The endpapers are a print of well worn paper with markings and smudges. I look at this one often.

Speaker Receiver also has a wonderful essay by Chris Krause with the best title ever.

Another from the shelf! Moyra Davey's 2010 book Speaker Receiver (Sternberg Press). I'm a big fan of Davey's work, love her attention to fragments, diaries, dust, reading, letters, minor notes of life in both her photos and writing. #MoyraDavey #photobook

I regularly look at this one, 'Port Area' by Komatsu Hiroko (2010). She photographs materials in cycles of demolition/destruction. This one is a favourite because of its materials and hand made methods: cardboard, staples, hand-stamping, plastic wrapped contact sheet print on the cover. #photobook

Smallest book in my collection! A transcript of Robert Frank's hour-long single take film of Frank and an actor wandering around the lower east side of Manhattan. Curious wonderful little book. This one was published in 1992 by Hanuman Books. Steidl did a reprint in 2007.

Excellent to see the special issue of Australian Feminist Studies on 'The Home' now online. Loved guest editing this with Lilian Chee, @sophiamaalsen.bsky.social and Cathy Smith. Available here: tandfonline.com/toc/cafs20/37/…
