<b><i>Junk </i>is a visual history of Spacemen 3 - the psychedelic rock band who are widely acknowledged as the Velvet Underground of the 1980s - as well as a definitive document of the alternative musical culture of the period. </b><br/><br/>With their mantra of "taking drugs to make music to take drugs to", Spacemen 3 established themselves as the ultimate cult band of the period by welding gospel and blues to minimalism and garage rock to create their own truly unique sound. <br/><br/>This book charts their story via co-founder J Spaceman's personal archive of band ephemera from their very first gig posters through to their 1991 posthumous album <i>Recurring</i> via battery receipts, reviews, contracts, personal letters and photographs. In short, all the junk associated with the band.<br/><br/>The book itself - designed in conjunction with Jonny Lu Studios - is designed to feel more like a museological archive instead of a traditional band book - each item being photographed forensically in exactly the same way, all meticulously catalogued by J Spaceman himself.

<b>'The National Maritime Museum has only gone and produced the ultimate book. Like HMS Dreadnought, all others are now obsolete ... Get this book. Clear the diary. Devour it.' <i>Dan Snow</i><br/> <br/> Drawing on the remarkable collection of original ship plans held by the National Maritime Museum, this accessible and highly illustrated book offers a stunning visual account of the history of the warship from the 17th to the 20th century.</b><br/> <br/> Providing both a historic and thematic overview of warship plans and design, this book chronicles the technical advances in the production of ships and reveals the exquisite artistry of the draughtsmen.<br/> <br/> Elaborate Victorian plans, that go beyond reference tools and can be considered works of art in their own right, are contrasted with more functional draughts created on linen and acetate, as well as blueprints. Showcasing plans for some of the most famous warships, as well as rare and unusual examples for ships that were never realised, the book links the advances in shipbuilding and design to wider social-historical considerations. The exploration of diverse topics such as captured warships and royal yachts are just parts of a comprehensive overview, with a selection of 'In Focus' sections presenting detailed case studies to explore important themes.

<b>A comprehensive yet accessible survey of Korean photography by two leading curators. Visually bold, it provides access to important thematics, key artistic positions and events in Korean photography's development from 1957 to the present.</b> <br/> <br/> <i>Shine Brightly: Korean Photography Since 1957</i> is the first wide-ranging survey of Korean photography in the English language. Built upon original, on-the-ground research and first-hand interviews, this publication offers a focused yet accessible exploration of the key artists, movements and exhibitions against their political, social and economic backdrops. <br/> <br/> Korean photography, whose practitioners have forged a unique visual language over seven decades, has been a vital part of the rise of South Korea's identity and influence at the heart of contemporary culture. Bold and richly detailed, this survey will engage readers looking to embark on an unprecedented, curated journey through Korea's photographic history.<br/> <br/> Featuring more than 100 photographers and over 450 photographs, this striking publication traces the development of Korean photography from the documentary roots of post-war realism and the avant-garde explorations of the 1970s and 80s to the key themes and artists at work today. Not only do authors Holly Roussell and Sunyoung Kim present important thematic developments, but they also propose new approaches to understanding the role of photography in performance and video art, the evolving aesthetics and symbolism of landscape photography, and the politicization of cityscapes around the turn of the millennium.<br/> <br/> For all who seek an understanding of an increasingly important photographic culture, <i>Shine Brightly</i> will be the definitive publication.
