We hope to see many of you tomorrow for the Copenhagen Book Launch : Michala Paludan : The Unposed (EoAT) at Art Hub Copenhagen from 7.30 pm.

OUT NOW! We are thrilled to announce the first release of our Autumn season: The Name We Hold by italian photographer @luca_iovino. This dark and mysterious new monograph explores the ritual repetition of the household and the feelings connected to moving from one home to another. Our book is a clothbound debossed hardcover with tip-in containing 112 pages with 56 B&W plates and a text by Luca Vicenzi with a beautiful design by @federico.barbon printed by the great @grafiche_veneziane with lithography by @castellorossella. Luca Iovino is an Italian photographer and artist based in Florence. The Name We Hold was shortlisted for Fiebre Dummy Award 2023, Kassel Dummy Award 2023 and BUP Book Award 2023. Iovino’s work primarily explores the relationship between space and the human being, aiming to establish connections between elements. He seeks to develop an atlas that neither inscribes structure nor defines borders. Instead, his work strives to break them open, challenge our certainties, and create a space for new explorations. Join us in Bologna this Sunday for the book launch at @phmuseumdays 15 September 3pm. Luca will be having an artist talk and a signing afterwards. The book is now available on our website with worldwide shipping and hopefully in your favorite bookshop real soon distributed by the great people at @ideabooksnl and DBK (in DK).

See you later for the book launch and exhibition of @slagmans ‘Looking at My Brother’ 16-20 at @nw_gallery_cph. Free beer, lot’s of books and images on the wall! The exhibition will be open throughout the weekend Saturday and Sunday 15 & 16 June from 11.00 - 16.00 where Julian will be present. See you there 👋

Disko Bay is thrilled to present our new photobook ‘Self Reflection’ by the acclaimed Danish photographer Henriette Sabroe Ebbesen (b. 1994) released today ✨. Ebbesen’s playfull and tender images blurs the line between photography and painting, reality and fantasy in an exploration of the human body and the subconscious self.  Formally educated as a Medical Doctor, Ebbesen is interested in the intersection between art and science. Her studies of the psyche, the senses, and the body are seen in many of her works from tattered faces and contorted naked bodies to self-portraits and still life’s. ‘Self Reflection’ is her first monograph published with support from The Danish Arts Foundation, The Politiken Foundation and @fotografiska.stockholm to accompany her recently opened solo exhibition ‘Kaleidoscope’.  The book is a large format softcover with French fold pages and a reflective mirror dust jacket with a foreword by Lisa Giomar Hydén, Director of Exhibitions at Fotografiska Museum Stockholm, designed by the talented @louismontez in an edition of 800 copies. Please join us in Copenhagen later today for the book launch. Come meet the photographer, grab a free beer and get your book signed from 4 to 7 pm at @lepetitvoyeur. The book is now available on our web store with worldwide shipping and hopefully in your favorite independent bookshop real soon distributed by @ideabooksnl* (International) and DBK (Denmark). *IDEA BOOKS are moving warehouse and expedition will consequently be closed from March 18th to April 1st, 2024.
