‘South of Chicago is a new zine from Tim Carpenter & Nathan Pearce, with design and publishing help from Matthew David Crowther and distant zine. As a long time Pearce fan, I had to pick up a copy.

Peter Funch – ‘The Imperfect Atlas’
Peter Funch’s The Imperfect Atlas is an interesting attempt to tackle the subject of climate change in photography. I’m not too sure where I heard about the book. It was Jeff Mermelstein’s favorite photobook of 2019, but by 2019 I was already trying to ignore best-of lists as a money-saving strategy, so I probably heard …

Distant Zine vol. 1 and 2
The Distant Zines (at time of writing they’re up to Vol. 5 and 6) arose from an instagram hashtag #socialdistancinglandscape, and each zine features images from two or three photographers. They’re all designed by Matthew David Crowther, and I think they all came through Nathan Pearce. If Volume 1 is a sort of conversation between …
