Vandret Publications is proud to announce our latest book, Hired Hand, containing photographic works of young artists Stuart Bailes (UK), Bea Fremderman (US), Ingo Mittelstaedt (DE) and Athena Torri (US).

Their elegant landscapes and still lifes are re-appropreated – collaged, juxtaposed and presented alongside internet stock photographs to make up a softspoken picture poem in which brute force and a slight caress suggest an undefined plot.

Available now as special edition at lodretogfriends.com with a signed and numbed archival pigment print made by Flemming Ove Bech and Johan Rosenmunthe (designers / editors / publishers). Remaining copies available through select stockists this summer.
