This collection of images is not a record of the people and places depicted in them, but rather a documentation of the one who was there looking at them. It is about the subjectivity of his own act of observation.

About photographer Jimi Franklin: born in Los Angeles, but later moved to Tokyo at a young age where he spent his adolescence. This hybrid of east and west is what has come to form Franklin's perspective which translates into his images. He currently lives and works in his birthplace Los Angeles.

Wintergarten Ltd. - Chinese Bondage in Peru


Title: Chinese Bondage in Peru
Artist: Wintergarten Ltd., Featuring Text by Ed Steck
Publisher: Wintergarten Ltd.
Type: 3-zine set, zine trilogy
Printing: Laserjet on newsprint
Number of pages: 108
Dimensions: 5.5"x8.5", 14cm x 21.6cm
Price: $25

Chinese Bondage in Peru is a collection of found photographs, printed matter and accompanying text organized around the vague fictitious narrative of a North American journalist's travels between the the continents of Latin America and Asia.  While the title of the series is taken from an academic publication on the exploitation of Chinese migrant laborers in Peruvian guano pits by 19th century colonists, in the context of these images it might just as easily refer to the Sendero Luminoso, a group of Maoist inspired revolutionaries organizing indigenous Peruvians to overthrow the country's government, or to the questionable role currently played by Chinese investors in Peru's mineral extraction sector.  While constructed from "real" ephemera of vernacular image production, the work is anything but documentary, taking its cues instead from sources such as Japanese "pink films" and the french photo-anthropology magazine "Zoom."

Mathias Grate - Before Silence


Before Silence
Mathias Grate
Afterword by Mikael Timm
64 pages
Soft cover, thread bound
6¾x8½" / 170 x 217 mm
Edition of 500
Tritone Offset
$34.50

"Mathias Grate’s photographs are less moments of touching down in time than keystrokes in an ongoing script of compressed experience. They seem to be drawn from a journey in the same unfamiliar landscape, a zone (to use a Tarkovskian association) which borders, on the one side, on everyday life and on the other on all that is timeless, other-worldly. (...) The subjects in this series from the zone could provoke grief. But they have been so gently developed (exposed feels like far too brutal a word) that, instead, they are comforting. Exhibited one after the other on a wall they form a short film of still images on the subject of tenderness. On the subject of that which takes place between the words."
