Rodin unites sensing and titillation with the intellect with these photographs. He presents the image of a woman with her legs open, spreading them with the extra flexed muscles, an orgiastic exercise reserved for the eye. A hand lifting and grabbing the sole of the foot. The picture of the body is banal and beautiful. White glimts on dark, soft skin, brightness in the forest floor, he presents the transparency of the photographs.

A unique photo-narrative depicting the Tosa Inu, the Japanese fighting dog. Initially, the dogfights are depicted as a purely Japanese cultural phenomenon and the Tosa Inu begin assuming characteristics symbolic of Japanese culture. The dog then emerges into a Swedish landscape, accompanied by the weight of Japanese history. Through playful, black and white photographs, the photographer resolves a potential juxtaposition through this pictorial insight into the meeting of two cultures.

WEST is a creative look at the romance and design of the American West. It captures the true spirit of America—and its forces of nature. It embraces the notion that the republic should not be thought of as the center of the world but rather as the drifter that still tries to get away. Lars Strandberg has worked internationally as a photographer, his work appearing both in books, magazines, newspapers, exhibitions, and advertising. Lars Åberg is a journalist and the author of a number of non-fiction books with Swedish or American themes, including two about Native Americans. Ronnie Nilsson is an art director who runs his own graphic design firm out of a renovated old farmhouse on the south coast of Sweden. He has designed a series of books, one of which was named Swedish cookbook of the year. A graphic look at America’s most exciting and captivating notion—The West.
