The release of Picture Cameras has got me feelin’ really nostalgic for Oakland. I miss Ariel Goldberg’s pranks, and this book marks the capstone to a loooooong project Ariel has conducted that has involved many people, many persona’s and many pictures. We’ve followed Ariel all along the way… and I’m proud to say she’s proven to everyone her ability to thoroughly examine a subject matter and true to Ariel’s brilliance, after years and years of examining photography and it’s place in the culture she’s condensed the information into a very airy, light, poignant, poetic read. No No Press, in December 2010 released Picture Cameras, a selection of Ariel’s log on photographic encounters in caption form. Letter pressed on old Shutterbug magazines. Designed and printed by Lara Durback and Ariel Goldberg, edition of 100, $20.
PS,
If you haven’t seen this V-Day post by Eileen Myles on “being female” yet, well, take a look.
