| Title: After an Apple Falls From the Tree, There is a Sound |
| By (author): Elena Tutatchikova |
| ISBN10-13: 4907562098 : 9784907562090 |
| Born in Moscow, Tokyo-based artist Elena Tutatchikova looks to the memory of childhood as the theme for this series, which she has worked on since 2009. Her camera follows children from a Russian village surrounded by nature as they swim in the river or wander in the woods. In a land of long, cold winters, summertime has special meaning. Yet the children experience the quiet onset and passing of summerâ s bright days unawares of its deeper significance. This shift in the seasonal cycle is metaphorically expressed in the sound of an apple falling. Simultaneously ephemeral and nostalgic, her photographs gently touch hidden memories through their universal sensibility. Japanese/English |

| Title: Berlin Hanayos Saugeile Kumpels |
| ISBN10-13: 4901477684 : 9784901477680 |
| Encountering the Fall of the Berlin Wall during her trip from Paris in 1989, where she was studying back then, birth of baby girl Tenko between German guy met in Tokyo, and invitation from director Christoph Schlingensief to Berlin â a curious turn of fate made Hanayo live in Germany from 1999 to 2010. Letting herself go with the flow, but spent purposeful, willing lives in Germany â such Hanayoâ s way of life overlaps with unique, weightless and fantastic photographs she takes. Hanayoâ s apartment in Berlin were always full of friends. It didnâ t matter who you are and where you are from, and everyone were tied by bonds naturally while spending time and sharing space together. Germany became like Hanayoâ s second hometown. In this book, selected works from massive collection of photographs Hanayo daily took through her life in Germany. Photographs of landscape, everyday life, portraits of friends and fellow artists as well as rather abstract images are intriguingly edited like a flow of images, freed from time spectrum. End notes by Hanayo will explain also some relationship of the friends and artists appeared in this book, as well as the contexts of Germany back then. This compliation of photographs of 15 years tells you cultures and airs of then Germany, and statement of life of an artist, Hanayo. |

| Title: Spectrum |
| ISBN10-13: 4907562276 : 9784907562274 |
| torch press would like to present you with a new photo book â spectrumâ by Takeshi Miyamoto. Currently based in Paris, France, he visited Iceland annually from 2011 until 2019 and undertook his documentation of masculinity in this country and Icelandic natureâ s wilderness. This project derives from a long struggle of his sexuality and soul-searching to find a balance between his body and his heart through his photographic communication with male subjects. His long-term journey of reinterpretation of masculinity has convinced him that there are resemblances of vibrating energies between the natural environment and the human body. We are on this journey of celebrating and embracing a new spectrum of masculinity, where strength and softness comfortably coexist. A â spectrumâ refers to a continuum of light components such as the seven colors of a rainbow or a transition of fluidity with a vague boundary between the two-axis. The raw and vast nature of Iceland, on the one hand, reveals to us Earthâ s core elements that push us away sometimes, but at the same time embrace and heal us with grace. A close-up of Earthâ s wilderness elegantly resembles the human bodyâ s elements. We realize that both nature and humans are always moving in this dynamic bipolar axis. Icelandâ s people seem to have this spectrum of fluid masculinity with a vague boundary of roughness and gentleness, like an extensive collection of natural lights. The primitive light of life and the darkness that continually coexists with this light embrace and affirm each other quietly. What is beauty, and what does it mean to be who you are? This ambitious series of work confronts us with a fundamental question about the unseen commonality between humans and nature. â The idea of gender equality and its sense of fairness in Iceland may be based on the premise that the human becomes one with Mother Nature, without going against it. People of Iceland seem to live in harmony, keeping their true colors. Humans and society accept both the lightness and the darkness of our hearts with a deeply encouraging spectral lightwave of hope. These are the stories that I would like to convey in my book. â â Takeshi Miyamoto |

| Title: TINTED LINES |
| ISBN10-13: 4907562284 : 9784907562281 |
| torch press is pleased to announce the release of Fumi Ishinoâ s third monograph, Tinted Lines, in April 2021. Following his 2017 publication, rowing a tetrapod, published by MACK books, and his limited-edition artist book, Index of Fillers (2021), co-published with Assembly, Tinted Lines extends Ishinoâ s interest in cultural intersection, displacement, hybridity, and the gaze, through a walking tour of Los Angeles. Through his distinctive use of sequencing, lighting, and composition, Ishino questions the discourses of space, ownership, and belonging. From gated communities, redevelopment areas, public facilities, museums, and suburbs, to neighborhoods segregated by race or ethnicity, concealed boundaries form layers of social constructs that limit access to outsiders. Ishinoâ s photographs argue that the contour of these borders can be redefined by repositioning oneâ s body, and that photography can act as a witness to this process while it smudges the specification of socially categorized spaces. These photographs portray words and spaces that indicate social belonging, power, and control. By rendering them in an inverted context, as unfamiliar visual languages, Tinted Lines questions how these dislocated codes reframe the discourse of ownership when the paradigm of inside and outside, private and public, is ripped, overpainted, and collaged. |
