And the award for most beautiful photography publication goes to, Milan-based, 0-100 Editions. There are 100 copies of each edition, each filled with wonderfully curated images, printed on high quality paper (you could frame the prints, they’re that good). Cristiano graciously sent out all of the editions thus far. Bonus marks for all the Canadians in the latest edition! Thank you Cristiano!
I finagled my friends at Phaidon to give me a sneak peek at the new Marlene Dumas book (comes out in December), I just didn’t expect them to mail out all 240 pages. Her work is interesting to me because she chooses to paint from magazine clippings and other “stock” images rather than from life.
