The Photobook: A History, volume 111? The Cook Book?






Still on the subject of food, rumor has it that Martin Parr and Gerry Badger may be working on volume 3 of The Photobook.
I have it on good authority that the subject of the cook-book as a possible category has been considered.

Here are some spreads from a cook book I discovered in Lodz in the Polish version of a 1 Euro shop. An ideal candidate for Martin and Gerry. This is a book that needs more exposure, one which will rocket in value once it gets the attention it deserves.

I'm not sure what the photographer had in mind when shooting the pictures for this book, but certainly not 100% on the food.

translation of a title of this book is something like "spicy recipes". so it gives some light on the photographer's mind :)
