Just Looking:
Snapshots, Close-ups and Portraits of the Everyday

Special price (25% off)

In this gem of a book you can see what artists and writers see in their day to day lives. Through the images they share, viewers are invited to contemplate the extraordinary within the everyday, from the humorous poetry of a bumper sticker display rack (David Byrne), or the optical composition of stripes made of t-shirts and a heater (Cornelia Parker), to the constellatory effect of a drinks menu pin board with scattered and jumbled lettering (Carey Young). The book includes pictures on the profiles of Shirin Neshat, Eileen Myles, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Roz Chast, Peter Doig, Olivia Laing, Mel Chin, David Byrne, Simon Wallis, Keith McNally, Lee Shulman, Toby Litt, Cornelia Parker, Polly Samson, Max Porter, Thomas Adès, Olivia Sudjic, Rachel Whiteread, Kamila Shamsie.

Images seen in slideshow by Mayumi Hirano, Joseph Grigley, Carey Young, Bruno Wollheim, Toby Litt, Cornelia Parker, Kamila Shamsie, William Dalrymple.
