#HappyPublisher & #HappyNewYear from Deauville #BestPhotobooks of 2018 by #SimonBaker My top 10 Photobooks of 2018: Sour Strawberries by Zhipeng Lin aka 223) 223 is one of my favourite discoveries of 2018, even though I feel that I should already have known about this brilliant and important artist. His latest book, a project by Pierre Bessard, brings together 223s stunning photographic work with a beautiful and intelligent design that evokes, and plays with, the logical of the censorship of explicit images. Each pixelated photograph is printed on the outside of uncut pages which, when cut, reveal the same complete image within.

Cholitas by Delphine Blast, BeSpoke collection, few copies available, limited edition of 250 copies with a signed c print #HappyPublisher #ArtOfPerfection Editions Bessard #EditionsBessard #Photographie

Portrait d’une cholita posant dans un studio à La Paz, Bolivie, mars 2016. Longtemps discriminées, les cholitas, femmes traditionnelles Aymara en Bolivie, font aujourd’hui leur grand retour en politique, à la télévision, et même dans le domaine de la mode. Jusqu’alors impensable, leur présence est désormais revendiquée. Elles font désormais partie intégrante de l’identité nationale bolivienne. Elles symbolisent la dignité retrouvée des populations indiennes.
Portrait extrait d’une série photographique de 35 images visant à renouveler le regard porté sur la féminité bolivienne. Portrait of a Cholita, in a studio in La Paz, Bolivia, March 2016. Discriminated against for a long time, they are now very much a driving force in Bolivia. In scenes that were unimaginable 10 or 20 years ago, nowadays they have real clout in the economic, political, and even fashion worlds. The cholitas have managed to find their place in modern society without denying their collective past. They are an expression of the dignity of Indian populations.
This photographic series aims to renew insight into Bolivian womanhood. It also carries with it new identity affirmations and reflects the social changes on the march in the country.
