The Cross Sections works are stunning in their beauty, yet they point to how unfamiliar we are wiith out own ominpresent foundations. We find in these images an energized tension between their visual appeal and the challenge to understand what they reveal. Wagner manages to make the process reassuring as she brings us inside, closer to our core than we may ever have been before. -Glen Helfand

Norman Mauskopf is a well-known documentary photographer whose other work includes Rodeo (1985) and A Time Not Here (1997). Selected from an impressive body of work taken over a period of four years, the photographs are beautifully reproduced in large-format sheet-fed gravures. From Santa Anita and Saratoga to Chantilly and Epsom, Mauskopf visited the great tracks to capture the pageantry and beauty of the horses and the people who populate the "Sport of Kings." Included is an introduction by Bill Barich.

Color is a retrospective look at Sheila Metzner's long career in photography (covering over twenty years of work) from early photographic prints of her children to her masterful fashion work. Included are tabletop still lifes, printed and sometimes handpainted by the artist, portraits, and her southwestern landscapes.

James Herbert is a long-time filmmaker living and working in Athens, Georgia. Presently he has begun to photograph single frames from his films for the purpose of making photographic prints. These images possess the erotic and dreamlike qualities of the films they are taken from and stand on their own as haunting individual glimpses into James Herbert's imagination.

In our fourth book of Duane Michals's work, the artist explores classic themes of love and death through photographs and words. The evocative images and poems collected in Eros & Thanatos conjure memories of love and loss, lust and longing, in what is perhaps the most revealing and overtly sensual of Michals's works to date. The full richness of Michals's imagery emerges from these exquisite, large-format sheet-fed gravures.

For several years Nancy Burson has photographed children with craniofacial disorders. She uses a plastic Diana camera which imparts an "ethereal and almost spiritual quality" to her subjects. These camera-shy children and the artist have begun to see themselves and each other differently through this ongoing photographic experience, and in the process have perhaps understood better than most of us what beauty must be in order that our dreams and dignity may survive.
