Summary: In Issue II, Some Ways to Disappear (ISSN 2044-4354) continues its meandering journey through the everyday, attempting to weave fractured visual narratives with episodes of absurdity to create a rug that might be either hilarious or terrifying, we’re not quite sure. In fact, it might not even be a rug, it could be a jumper, but in that case it wouldn’t be weaved, it would probably be knitted, or something.

Bringing together specially commissioned writing alongside never published before photographic works, this second issue features Brooklyn-based photographer and writer, Charlie Engman, with his photo series, Stereogram, and short story, Whoopi and Me.

It presents the brand new prose poem, SOFT SECOND SERVE, written specifically for the issue by the youngest ever British poet to be shortlisted for the Forward Prize for Best Collection 2007, Luke Kennard.

Issue II also introduces an exclusive commissioned short story, Uncanny Valleys, by London-based author, Thomas Kendall, written in response to a photograph by Polish freelance photographer, Lukasz Wierzbowski.

A curated gallery section presents the works of international artists Ilze Vanaga, Iván Sanjuán, Rafal Pruszynski, Derek Vincent, Ana Kraš, Patrick Kuhre, Dan Abbe, Jason Cawood, and Katarina Sopčić.

Some Ways to Disappear resides in the misty-eyed space between the everyday and the dream. Everything is lucid, nothing is apparent.

The Indie Photobook Library is TWO!

This past weekend, the Indie Photobook Library celebrated its 2nd Anniversary. Thank you to all the photographers/artists/bookmakers that have made the collection what it is today! I’d also like to thank Advisory Board members Darius Himes, Andy Adams, Shane Lavalette, and Gabe Reed and all the venues that have welcomed the iPL. In the last two years, the collection has grown to almost 1000 books. The iPL continues to promote and showcase the books in the collection through international pop-up and feature-length exhibitions, articles, conferences, guest lectures, and also preserves them as a non-circulating public library. Having a specific collection dedicated to this contemporary movement in publishing allows for the development of future discourse on trends in self-publishing, the ability to reflect on and compare books in the collection, and for scholarly research to be conducted years, decades, and centuries to come. I am looking forward to continuing the iPL mission.

Cheers,
Larissa Leclair
Founder, Indie Photobook Library
