Between the Shell
A collection of images created by Paul Salveson between 2006 and 2011 in New York and Virginia. Salveson has constructed a series of still life arrangements within the context of a domestic environment in which everyday household objects are used to create at times disturbingly hilarious images.

Holding a Thread
In recent years Benjamin Armstrong has established himself as one of contemporary Australian art’s most inimitable practitioners. Tracing his alien glass sculptures, stunning painting practice and working methodology, this wonderfully produced volume is an equally beautiful and important document of a young artist at the height of his powers. Holding a Thread comes courtesy of astute Sydney publishing house Emblem. Highly recommended.

More than what there is
This publication brings imaginative vision to the notion of monograph-as-art-practice. It functions both as an artist book and as a survey of Australian artist Elizabeth Newman’s paintings, installations, objects, collages, text works and writing over the past three decades. The book documents around 150 works in full colour, and gathers together many of Newman’s own written pieces, along with new commissioned texts from Juan Davila, Damiano Bertoli, Geoff Lowe (with Jacqueline Riva), Kate Briggs, Eve Sullivan and Michael Graf.
