June Photobooks: A Curated Survey of Vision and Voice
Curated by specialist Oliver Wood, this selection of photobooks presents a rare convergence of aesthetic innovation and documentary resonance. Spanning seminal 20th-century publications and elusive conceptual works, the collection honours the photobook as both a cultural artefact and a deeply personal mode of expression.
Among the highlights are America and Alfred Stieglitz—a cornerstone of American photographic modernism—and Robert Frank’s The Americans, represented in two distinct editions. Hans Bellmer’s haunting La Poupée, Claude Cahun’s surrealist gem Le Cœur de Pic, and Let Us Now Praise Famous Men by Evans and Agee exemplify the photobook’s capacity to shape collective memory.
From typographic experimentation in La Photographie n’est pas l’Art to the graphic flair of Les Européens, each volume has been selected for its contribution to the evolution of the photographic narrative. This is a collection for the discerning collector—those drawn to photobooks as both visual inquiry and enduring historical document.
