"For Them" is the final chapter in Rula Halawani's decade-long project, which focuses on the Palestinian landscape to highlight the stories of its people. Together with writer and curator Charlotte Cotton, Rula discusses the importance of remembering people and places in times of displacement and destruction.
In "A Way In," Rahim Fortune and Earlie Hudnall, Jr. discuss how empathy and connection are fundamental premises of their work—the skill that transforms the camera from an impersonal record-keeper into an unwavering trustworthy agent and creator of memory.
Additionally, "Shrieking, Wailing, Sobbing" pairs previously unpublished photographs by Gabby Laurent, inspired by the original book written by Anne Carson.
LaToya Ruby Frazier's highly anticipated exhibition at MoMA in New York re-envisions, re-scales, and re-examines her work spanning the past quarter century. In "A monument to solidarity," the exhibition's lead curator, Roxana Marcoci, Acting Chief Curator of Photography at MoMA, offers insight into the conception of the exhibition and the story behind it. Roxana's essay is accompanied by images from LaToya's iconic series, "On the Making of Steel Genesis: Sandra Gould Ford (2017)."
In "Shaper," Elle Pérez speaks with author and podcaster Gem Fletcher, continuing the conversation about finding creative permanence through fluid processes. The feature presents newly curated images from three of Elle's recent works: "Devotions (2022)," "guabancex (2023)," and "Shaper (2024)."
Each issue of True Photo Journal has two different covers, and this time we have selected one by Lydia Roberts. The magazine is large-format, and it is a high-quality photography journal with large prints of the artists' photos. It seems that it is not widely available in Japan, so please pick up a copy and take a look. (Ammel)
