Louise Bourgeois - Les Fleurs - Nieves, 2023
''Louise Bourgeois' flowers series, painted in gouache on paper.
Born in Paris in 1911 and a New Yorker since 1938, Louise Bourgeois created a unique oeuvre—that owes no allegiance to 20th-century "isms"—in the course of a career than has spanned more than 60 years. Psychologically charged and dealing with the realm of human emotion (love, desire, dependency, sexuality, rejection, jealousy, and abandonment), her art is grounded in her own life and experience: "My goal is to re-experience a past emotion … to relive anxiety … anxiety is a passive state, and the object is to be active and take control." Yet Louise Bourgeois did not create an autonomous universe as an artistic hermit. While her art is nourished by personal experience, it also draws from art and art history—a wellspring of inspiration from which she developed her themes, concepts, and approach to media in both two- and three-dimensional works.''

Roger Ballen - Outland - Phaidon, 2015
''Outland encapsulates nearly 20 years of Roger Ballen's work, capturing rural South Africa’s evolving social landscape. Initially focused on rural “dorps” and isolated whites grappling with the loss of apartheid-era privileges, Ballen’s powerful, unsettling images grew into psychological studies. By the late 1990s, his subjects began acting in staged, dark scenes, blurring the lines between documentary and fiction. First published by Phaidon in 2001 and re-released in 2015 with 45 new photos, Outland remains a seminal work in contemporary photography.''

Marcel Mariën - De Openstaande Vrouw - Loempia 1985
This book, comprising just over a hundred photographs (with a short introduction by Patrick Hughes), is a hymn to the female body, an offbeat blazon from face to breasts to vulva, all adorned with various disturbing accessories: cherries, scissors, the Eiffel Tower, a pornographic deck of cards and, above, a mirror (one with her self-portrait).
One of the late books (1985) post-surrealist, anachronistic, from the Belgian surrealist, Marcel Mariën.
