For over twenty years, Bruce Cratsley has been producing intimate, mysterious, and engrossing photographs. The dominant theme of his work -- whether in haunting street scenes of Paris and New York, in portraits of friends and lovers, or in images of ordinary objects -- has been the interplay of light and shadow. While one sees traces in Cratsley's images of Atget, of Kertesz, and of his mentor and friend, Lisette Model, it is finally the artist's unmistakably unique vision which stands him apart. This definitive monograph encompasses the period 1976 to 1996, and illustrates how the photographer's personal battle with the AIDS virus has infused his work with startling sharpness and immediacy. At their best, Cratsley's pieces offer both vivid testimony of life's potential, and somber meditation on its fragility. Bruce Cratsley (b. 1944) has been a participant in the New York art world for four decades: as a curator, gallerist, photo editor of the Village Voice, and a Guggenheim Fellow in photography from 1989 to 1990. In the early seventies, he befriended Peter Hujar, who encouraged him to pursue art, and later studied with Lisette Model at the New School for Social Research.

A personal and cultural exploration of silence and its value in our lives—“[an] artful book, mixing autobiography, travel writing, meditation, and essay” (Independent, UK). In her late forties, after a noisy upbringing as one of six children and adulthood as a vocal feminist and mother, Sara Maitland found herself living alone in the country and, to her surprise, falling in love with silence. In this fascinating, intelligent, and beautifully written book, Maitland describes how she began to explore this new love, spending periods of silence in the Sinai desert, the Scottish hills, and a remote cottage on the Isle of Skye. Maitland also delves deep into the rich cultural history of silence, exploring its significance in fairy tale and myth, its importance to the Western and Eastern religious traditions, and its use in psychoanalysis and artistic expression. Her story culminates in her building a hermitage on an isolated moor in Galloway. “Her book is probably unique in its subject, and timely, because good, healing silence is becoming hard to find, and we may not know we need it” (Guardian, UK).
