An updated archive of Alÿs' long-term study of children's enduring need for playSince 1999, Belgian multimedia artist Francis Alÿs (born 1959) has been producing videos that document the games that children play on the street and in courtyards around the world. Children's Games is an ongoing archive of the urban practices that modernity has banished from everyday life, as the concepts of public space and free time have grown increasingly distorted by the domination of motor vehicles and electronic diversions. Many of these videos were shot in economically underdeveloped regions of the world, where the strength of tradition and community have allowed the shared life of a childhood on the street to survive. The children's games that Alÿs captures gesture toward a threatened underground culture crossing generations and borders. Their rules, images and references suggest an ancient, potent substrate underlying our shared experience.

Anubis era un Doctor que pasó su infancia en un orfanato y este hecho marcó el resto de su vida. Fue dejado allí por su madre que no podía soportar su comportamiento violento. En aquel lugar, su único y mejor amigo, Marcial, con el que tenía una profunda y especial amistad, sufrió un acoso constante por parte de un grupo de chicos que lo habían situado en el objetivo de sus burlas por sus formas algo amaneradas.

Chambi's chronicles of Andean life and Inca ruins highlight Peru's emerging Indigenous discourseOf Indigenous origin, Peruvian photographer Martín Chambi (1891-1973) dedicated a large part of his life to photographing the Peruvian Andes, reclaiming the pre-Hispanic past through images of Inca ruins and portraits of life in Andean communities in the early 20th century. Chambi's work brings a new perspective to photography of the time, highlighting the emerging Indigenous discourse that was starting to gain force in South America. While he was not the first to photograph Machu Picchu, Chambi was among the first Peruvian chroniclers of the Inca citadel. Drawing on Machu Picchu's geometric forms, Chambi's work entered a new phase in which shape, space and texture build toward more complex compositions and starker contrasts, making him an emblem of contemporary documentary photography in Peru and Latin America. This gorgeous clothbound volume compiles 170 of Chambi's black-and-white images.

Portraits of uncommon beauty from the author of the acclaimed La CucarachaIn Solus Volume I, South African photographer Pieter Hugo (born 1976) reflects on the values implied by the fashion industry's shifting aesthetics through portraits of street-cast models found in diverse locations such as London, Paris, New York and South Africa. Hugo found himself captivated by sitters with unconventional and atypical looks, particularly before they underwent the machinations of wardrobe, makeup and hair. Drawn to this uniqueness and recalling the sense of not-belonging that is part of the intense experience of youth, Hugo's invitation to the models was: "simply present yourself." The resulting photographs embrace vulnerability and frailty as much as they do the agency and idealism of their subjects. Hugo's typological study questions fashion's commodification of youth and the "outsider," while embracing the beauty of peculiarity worn with acute awareness and the paradox of craving both difference and conformity.
