Mountains and rivers are very significant for the Chinese and their culture. What is clear is that photographer Zhang Kechun masterly captures the traditional significance of the landscape, portraying the ecology of its magnificent natural phenomena. Human traces are still visible, the omnipresent urbanization and the ongoing industrial development. The last few decades have witnessed tremendous changes and that is exactly what he wants to convey: the uneasiness around such rapid evolution.

The Beautiful Flower Is The World, out May 21 by Anthology Editions, is a pro-skater-cum-photographer’s 288 pages of bootleg, irony and a type of “tragicomic” (as Jesse Pearson describes in the book’s foreword) beauty unique to skate culture. Even the title is ripped off of a child’s t-shirt. This is Jerry Hsu’ssecond print release, photographed between skating and running his clothing brand Sci-fi Fantasy. Featuring unplanned snapshots of a hopeful poppy in the tarmac, a haunting eye amongst a box of chopped raw flesh and shrooms on pizza; escapism, beauty, ugliness and tension punctuate his series.

Dmitry Markov. Russia as you’ve never seen it.

“Every added picture is like another chapter in my own history”, says photographer Dmitry Markov in his book#Draft (published by Tree Media). His work walks away from the ‘social photography’ label. Through his photographs, he depicts scenes of daily life, his environment, his encounters with friends, colleagues, and other people around him. When he gets asked why he goes after ‘life’s unpleasant side’, he replies, “because I am part of it.” #Draft #Russia is his most recent exhibition, and you don’t want to miss it: until June 4 at the agnès b. boutique galerie in New York City.
