<Bernard Buffet et Annabel> Bernard Buffet appeared in Franch art world at the young age of twenty, and had established his unique style of representational painting. Annabel was the belle of French society with her exotic beauty.
Those two who shared the shadow in mind of having experienced war in theirsensitive adolescence and their own family's discord in their childfood, had fated meeting in 1958.
When France was whirlig by postwar frenzy, Buffet formed cultural relationship with Francoise Sagan, Jean Cocteau and Jean Giono, but yet, he remained aloof from the others as a painter. And Annabel had supported him
all her life.

<Fw:7 Pages>
In recent years a divers range of international exhibitions and books are devoted
to the medium of the Photography Book. The main focus in these exhibitions and
publications was to get a grip on the history of the medium. The exhibition Pages
aims to show how contemporary Dutch photographers use the medium of the photo book.
The publications that are shown are as rich and experimental as the original work of
the photographers.

<Fake Flowers in Full Colour> Is it possible to create a three dimensional
colour seperation? That was the question that triggerd Jaap Scheeren and Hans Gremmen to start this experiment. A bouquet of fake flowers was
arranged as starting and striving point. The next step was to create four still lifes of this bouquet: one in Cyan, one in Magenta, one in Yellow
and one in Black. These still lifes were photographed and merged into one image. In theory this should have been the same as the startingpint,
but in practice it became 'Fake Flowers In Full Colour'. Ilse van Rijn wrote the text 'Phoenix' for this publication. |

<We would come to doubt everything...> 'We would come to doubt everything...¡¯ evolved around Juan, for whom
consequential events in his youth, have become the cause to search for a certain truth, a bigger truth then we can or want to imagine. Several years ago Juan made the choice to
leave his life as a dentist in a small village in the south of the Netherlands behind, to start all over in Garabandal, Spain. A place that, in his opinion, will be of crucial
importance for world history. |

<Commonness> In 2009, Dieuwertje Komen visited five medium-sized cities: Bordeaux, Kosice,
Pilzn and Mons. She was commissioned by the Berlage Institute in Rotterdam to visit the cities that had applied to become the European Capital of Culture.
Komen has arranged her photos of the various cities randomly to create a tour that constantly changes: it is not confined to a single city, instead it says
something about the urban situation in medium-sized European cities today. |

Her grandmother lived in the most sparsely populated part of France, in a village called Aumont. Over a period of four years, Jeanjean took a series of
photographs of the village and its inhabitants, focusing mainly on the deadness and desolation of the place. A book about this project is due to appear during
the period of the exhibition

| Price: 52,000 won / Dimension: 170 x 240 mm / Pages: 256 / Binding: Hard cover / Full-color / English / re-published by Fw: in 2009 (2007) |
<Family Tree> The subject of this book is intriguing. Contrary to what you might expect,
it does not trace Goslinga¡¯s family tree. Instead, it gives us 108 photographs of people who have been important to him. Some have to do with a particular
period in his life or with his divorced parents, others he regards as important for his person, for Ringel Goslinga as he now is. This interpersonal approach
gives the images something impalpable, something poetic. The book derives its strength from the photos and the way they have been put together.
