Kishin Shinoyama / Olele Olala 1971
Scarce. Shimoyama's pictoral essay on Brazil, full of carnivals, prostututes, the beach, nightclubs, the streets, and of course nudes. Amazing, and one of his best.

Steven Meisel / Gianni Versace A/W 1998-1999
This is astounding- Steven Meisel's 1998-1999 portfolio for Versace. It's huge (43x32cm) and comprises 30 phenomenal Meisel photographs printed on thick, heavy cardstock in a printed slipcase. The work itself is part taxidermy and part renaissance costume drama via old master painting, with pitch perfect casting, styling, composition and depth. Those of you familiar with Leonardo/Bernardino/Raphael will spot the references! Elegant, funny and amazing.

Chantal Balez / Nous les Femmes
Wonderful book shot during the late seventies as a portrait to womanhood. A beautiful document that is very much a product of second wave feminism. Recommended.
