The Hellbangers are the enfants terribles of a sleepy, diamonds rich country. Photographer Pep Bonet (1974, Mallorca) has been following Overthrust, a heavy metal band from Botswana, Africa, and shows us a growing, exciting and thoroughly organic heavy metal community. Ten years ago, one group existed. Today there are more than ten and their fans are growing every year. The inhabitants of Botswana portrayed in this book are tattood, wear loudly and proudly leather jackets, leather trousers and play heavydeath metal music. Imagine the DIY ingenuity of their costume creation involving harvested animal skulls and other natural elements. With names like Demon and Gunsmoke, it would be easy though to think they are thugs, but We try to be exemples. Rock is awild thing, but also something for the heart, says Gunsmoke, the heavy metal head. Here too, the lyrics of the songs are very critical towards societies, just like their western peers. Metal in Botswana is rebellious movement against authorities. This is the story of what looks at first to be an unlikely union, yet one which powerfully illustrates how music, how heavy metal music, has become a positively unifying force in an unlikely part of the world.

I want to let everyone know that work from my Land Studies series has been included in a new book by the talented folks at Another Earth.
What Makes a Lake? Tracing Movement brings together the work of more than 80 artists to create a portrait of Earth’ lakes, rivers, and oceans. This collection of images and text offers an intimate experience of places that we hope create a new connection to and commitment for caring for our most vulnerable ecosystems. In exploring an expanded scope of lakes around many different communities, we see how all these bodies of water are not isolated but rather flowing in and out of one another, reminding us how much our impact ripples out. What changes can be made with new awareness?
What Makes a Lake? Tracing Movement is beautifully designed and printed and is now available for pre-sale, so you can order on the Another Earth website: https://another-earth.com/books.
Curated and Edited by Abbey Meaker, Estefania Puerta and Cristian Ordóñez.
Book design by Cristian Ordóñez and Abbey Meaker.
This publication was supported by the Burlington City Arts Community Fund Grant.

Very excited that my photo book, The Road Is Long & Beautiful, is now available to order! The Road Is Long & Beautiful is a collection of 35mm color photographs from my 570 mile walking pilgrimage along the Caminho Português (The Portuguese Way). This 200 page experiential photo book walks with you through 58 days, one and a half million steps from Lisbon, Portugal to Santiago de Compostela, Spain, through farmland, olive groves, mountains, towns, monasteries, and train tracks. This pilgrimage meant so much to me to meet the land, people, & language of one of my ancestral countries for the first time. The route I walked: the Caminho Português from Lisbon to Porto, the Senda Litoral Coastal Route, crossing to the Central Route from Caminha to Valença, the Central Route, the Variante Espiritual, and ending in Santiago de Compostela. You can get your copy for $25 here ❤️

Do you have the book "The New York School Photographs 1936-1963"? It is a wonderful book.
No, I don't, but I took a look at it online and it does look wonderful! Unfortunately, the lowest price for a good copy is $48. I'll have to keep my eye out for a cheaper copy!

Dance in Close Up
Hans Van Manen seen by Erwin Olaf
Hannibal, Veurne 2022, 120 pages, 32x32cm, Linen hardcover with tip-in, ISBN 9789464366273
euro 65,00

Exclusive art project by photographer Erwin Olaf and choreographer Hans van Manen offering a unique view on dance and photography
“Ballet inspires me. Human beings have the capacity to express themselves through many art forms, but when it comes to dance – and especially classical modern ballet – I am always amazed by that unbelievably elevated form of expression. It's so precise and so incredibly skilled; I admire that enormously.” ― Photographer and filmmaker Erwin Olaf
“The fact that the photographer is looking through the camera lens means they have a different perspective from looking directly at the figure. That is voyeuristic. The camera can do something that the audience member can't: zooming in for a close-up.” ― Choreographer Hans van Manen
The grand master of Dutch dance, Hans van Manen, celebrates his 90th birthday this year. That has given rise to international celebrations by leading ballet companies with the Hans van Manen festival from 8 to 29 June 2022, the exclusive publication Dance in Close-Up and the exhibition of the same name in Galerie Ron Mandos in Amsterdam from 19 June to 17 July 2022. From the 1970s to the 1990s, Hans van Manen was not only one of the world's leading choreographers, but also an internationally acclaimed photographer. It was during this period that the then very young photographer Erwin Olaf met the famed artist, who immediately took him under his wing and introduced him to the world of the visual arts and studio photography. This book celebrates their 40 years of friendship, with a photo series in which Van Manen directs moments from his choreographic career, recorded with the utmost precision by Erwin Olaf. With text contributions from the authors Nina Siegal and Michael James Gardner.

Staff Pick of the Week
I’m highlighting Rania Matar’s latest photography book, She, published in October of 2021 by the New Mexico-based non-profit publisher Radius Books for this round of staff picks. Radius has donated over 75,000 of their fine art and photography books to libraries, schools, and art programs since their founding in 2007 and earmarks a portion of each publication for donation to underfunded libraries and arts programs. 
Rania Matar was born in Lebanon in 1964 and relocated to the United States in 1984. Matar is an award-winning photographer, most recently a 2018 Guggenheim Fellow, whose work focuses on the daily lives of women and girls, informed by her cross-cultural experiences. The composition of the book, and the way it juxtaposes motifs across geographic space (the first two images above come on consecutive pages, image 8 & 9 are on facing pages) creates a sense of continuity of the feminine experience that transcends place. She is Matar’s fourth photography book. We also have Matar’s L’enfant-Femme (Damiani Editore, 2016) here in Special Collections -- a potential future post. That work focuses on girls in their pre-teens and early teens in the United States and Lebanon, with geographical and cultural differences bridged by the common experience of growing up.
