Pure and Dirty by Reynold & Hall
Pure and Dirty is a unique book that captures the world through the eyes of Claire Reynolds and Chrissie Hall. By using themselves as the central characters, Reynolds and Hall have documented a wild journey into sexuality and the Australian bush. They have been creatively guided by Australian artist Tracey Moffatt.
“On a mission to photograph what is pure and what is dirty, we wanted a space without boundaries, where nothing was off-limits, where we could rampantly discover ways of reconnecting with nature. We took road trips, we took the city to the bush, we were naked, we made pictures – we made art“. Reynolds and Hall 
Pablo Picasso and Marie-Therese
Pablo Picasso's endless fascination with his lover's character and form led to radical shifts in his conception of portraiture and the mystical metamorphoses that the act of creation entails. Picasso's secretive love affair with Marie-Therese Walter, which began in 1927, inspired a radical shift in his conception of portraiture. The exhibition and catalogue present Marie-Therese as a primary vehicle for his experimentation during the period, including several works never before seen in the United States as well as previously unpublished personal letters and photographs. Picasso and Marie-Therese sheds new light on the interpretation of one of the most creative relationships in Picasso's rich and varied oeuvre.
