books for the holidays


Around the World: The Grand Tour in Photo Albums
Barbara Levine , Kirsten Jensen

this is a very cool coffee table book for both travel and photography lover. and might i add vintage photo album collector. lots of beautiful snapshots, passenger lists, itineraries and postcards from cairo to burma.


Taking Things Seriously : 75 Objects with Unexpected Significance
Joshua Glenn , Carol Hayes

this book had me thinking for days. about the stories behind the objects in the book and about what my objects of unexpected significance were. a poignant look at ordinary things, instilled with extraordinary significance. a book to be inspired by.


The Guerilla Art Kit,
Keri Smith

everything you need to put your message out into the world. for fun, non-profit and world domination. in the keri smith way, this book gives new meaning to guerilla art. like leaving books for strangers to find, chalking quotes on the sidewalk or making your own stencils, it's full of fun assignments and ideas for the artist/activist.

Albert Hastings , KayLynn Deveney

a glimpse into an eighty-five year old man's life through the lens of photographer, kaylynn deveney. contains handwritten text and poems by albert hastings in a unique storytelling viewpoint of both photographer and subject.
