Harvey Benge – As It Is? in four chapters


Its getting hard to keep up with Harvey, but I hope he doesn’t stop sending me books. Here is his latest, a 4 part booklet set that is hidden behind the notion that it’s not photography’s fault that it doesn’t have answers, it’s our fault for not knowing the question.
As so often with Harvey, there is no text, just the titles, which change flavor depending on how you lay them out:
IS THIS WHAT IT IS?
SOME UNEXPECTED ANSWERS
THE FEAR OF NOT GETTING IT
I DON’T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS YET
you can get them from him directly, or probably at Paris Photo, along with an impressive stack of his publications to date, though most of them are probably sold out, this one is limited to 75.
The buffet is open...
Buffet is a collection of special editions, book + print sets, artist's books, print/book trades and various interesting ways in which photographers are packaging and selling their work. Some are sold through galleries and publishers, some by the artists.
