One of Nan Goldin’s most important series, this timely publication is set to align with a major career retrospective opening at the Grand Palais, Paris, in March 2026. Focusing on the life of her sister Barbara, Goldin brings together hospital reports, family snapshots, and her own photographs to construct a visual tapestry exploring addiction, abuse, trauma, and female resistance. Sisters, Saints and Sibyls stands, as Goldin herself notes, as "a tribute to my sister and to all rebellious women struggling to survive in society."

Barbara Goldin was born in May 1946, to Lillian Kantrovitz and Hyman Howard Goldin. At the age of twelve, she was sent to a psychiatric detention facility. Condemned for her defiant and sexually provocative attitude, Barbara spent the next six years in various facilities, before taking her own life in 1965, at the age of eighteen.

Sisters, Saints and Sibyls unflinchingly reveals the tragic story of Barbara’s life, using medical records and family photographs, alongside mythical illusions to Saint Barbara, to compose a haunting meditation on the broader mistreatment of female mental health in the twentieth century.

Barbara's story is intertwined with Goldin’s own descent into, and emergence from, addiction. Bringing the moments considered too shameful by others to the front of the page, Sisters, Saints and Sibyls is a liberatory experience, shining a light on the reality of addiction and trauma.

This publication is set to stand as the definitive edition of one of Goldin’s most important works.

Sophie Calle is a French writer, photographer, installation artist, and conceptual artist. Her work is distinguished by its use of arbitrary sets of constraints, frequently depicts human vulnerability, and examines identity and intimacy. She is renowned for her detective-like ability to follow strangers and investigate their private lives, which she has deployed in her renowned works Suite Vénitienne, The Hotel, and Address Book. She has had major exhibitions all over the world, including at the Venice Biennale, the Whitechapel Gallery in London, and the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark, and has also worked closely with the writer Paul Auster. The Guardian called her “the Marcel Duchamp of dirty laundry,” and she was among the names in Blake Gopnik’s “10 Most Important Artists of Today,” with Gopnik arguing, “It is the unartiness of Calle’s work—its refusal to fit any of the standard pigeonholes, or over anyone’s sofa—that makes it deserve space in museums.”

A new entry in the acclaimed Photofile series, Sophie Calle contains over one hundred reproductions together with a critical introduction by Clément Chéroux and a full bibliography of the artist.

New photographs from Solkær’s internationally acclaimed series on the natural migration patterns of starlings

A sequel to Søren Solkær’s previous monograph Black Sun, Starling chronicles the photographer’s return to the landscape of his childhood and youth in southern Denmark. In a similar manner to prior projects, he spent three years following and photographing the migration of the starling: from Ireland to Denmark and the Netherlands along the Wadden Sea and on to Sardinia and Rome. The starlings move as one unified organism that vigorously opposes any outside threat. Shapes and black lines of condensation form within the swarm, resembling waves of interference or mathematical abstractions written across the horizon. The graphic and organic shapes of the starling murmurations range from meditative to highly dramatic as they perform their incredible ballet of life and death. This time, Solkær approaches the phenomenon from a mythological and scientific angle. These new perspectives capture the birds’ movements against backgrounds such as Roman urban architecture. Additionally, Solkær creates two new series of photographs featuring starling feathers photographed through a microscope.
