Au milieu des années 1980, Roni Horn commence à développer une technique de dessin spécifique, à base de pigments, de vernis et de papiers découpés, assemblés dans un minutieux processus de recomposition. Ses dessins se présentent avec une matérialité puissante, comparable à celle de l'architecture. Le dessin constitue depuis cette période une partie essentielle de la pratique de l'artiste. 153 Drawings présente pour la première fois une large sélection des dessins de Roni Horn, allant des travaux inauguraux réalisés sur fiches cartonnées aux œuvres récentes en grand format et très complexes. Le livre inclut des essais de l'artiste anglaise Tacita Dean et de l'historien de l'art Briony Fer.

In 2012 Wessel assembled 'Incidents', a book of 27 previously unpublished photographs. Decisive and succinct, each incident is laid down with the aesthetic immediacy of a snapshot, recalling Garry Winogrand's quote that 'there is nothing as mysterious as a fact clearly described'. As Wessel stated in a recent interview: 'We can recognize and name what has been described but not what just happened, not what is going on, not what is about to happen. Once you accept the idea that all photographs are fictions, analogies for the things they represent, then you are more receptive to the meaning that is being suggested by that analogy, by that fiction. To be more specific, photographs are about something that would not exist without the photograph.'

Lee Friedlander's exploration of one of photography's most enduring genres began almost by chance, in the late 1970s, when a teacher colleague at Rice University in Houston lined up a regular schedule of nude models for his students. Almost immediately, Friedlander found that he preferred to photograph the models at their homes, and ingeniously deployed household objects such as bedside lamps, potted plants and sofa fabrics to play off against the angular poses of the models and the emphatic framing of the overall composition. Friedlander's nudes show every blemish, every contour that makes each body unique, while his flash often serves to counter this realism with a softening effect that often recedes the body's shadow right up to its outline. With the publication of Friedlander's nude portraits of Madonna (prints of which fetch huge sums), the series became among the photographer's best known work, and eventually saw publication in 1991, from Jonathan Cape. Lee Friedlander: The Nudes significantly expands on the Cape edition (itself long out of print), with a total of 84 nudes, plus a new layout and design by Katy Homans and new separations by Thomas Palmer. As such, it offers the most lavish presentation of this key series in Friedlander's massive oeuvre.

Today's Hollywood screenplays have a uniform appearance, but it has not always been this way. The earliest film writing used theatrical plays and prose fiction as models, and the silent cinemas of Germany, Russia and the United States all developed their own traditions, culminating in the unique 'screen poetry' of Carl Mayer. Hollywood studios adapted to writing for sound in different ways, while European author-directors such as Ingmar Bergman made film writing as personal a form of expression as poetry. Later, American writers as diverse as William Goldman, David Mamet and Charlie Kaufman showed that the screen writer could be as important and distinctive a figure as any director, while today's digital technology is transforming screenwriting once again. Steven Price traces the history of the screenplay, illustrating its transformations with detailed discussion of a wide range of examples from the beginnings of cinema to the present day.

This autumn season, the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza is presenting Surrealism and the Dream, the first monographic exhibition devoted to the visual approach of Surrealist artists to the oneiric world. Curated by Jose Jimenez, the show advances Surrealism as an attitude towards life whose roots delve deep into the relationship between image and dream. The comprehensive array of photographs, paintings, collages, objects, sculptures and films that visitors will be able to enjoy points to the blurred nature of the borderline between reality and what appears before us in our dreams.

The gas station is one of the most iconic of twentieth century buildings. Recognised across the world, it is arguably most established on American soil where the notion of the road trip on a full tank of gas is culturally ingrained. Gasoline presents 35 archive press images of gas stations taken between 1944 and 1995. Gasoline can be read as a cautionary tale about the modern dependence on oil, about news photography, about the shift from film to digital imaging, or as a minor history of car design and vernacular architecture. Marked with the grease pen notations of the newspapers art directors, the photos tell of oil shortages, road congestion, crimes, accidents and choking cities.
