August: Collier Schorr - HardcoverIn the early 1990s Collier Schorr began working on and off in Southern Germany, compiling a documentary and fictional portrait of a small town inhabited by historical apparitions. Combining the overlapping roles of war photographer, traveling portraitist, anthropologist, and family historian, Schorr tells the interwoven stories of a place and time determined by memory, nationalism, war, emigration, and family August employs Polaroids made by Schorr in

  • In the early 1990s Collier Schorr began working on and off in Southern Germany, compiling a documentary and fictional portrait of a small town inhabited by historical apparitions. Combining the overlapping roles of war photographer, traveling portraitist, anthropologist, and family historian, Schorr tells the interwoven stories of a place and time determined by memory, nationalism, war, emigration, and family
  • August employs Polaroids made by Schorr in Schwäbisch Gmünd and in this period to explore the liminal space of images that were never intended to persist beyond the immediate moment. Looking back some twenty years, August both historicises the work and examines the devices of making, revealing the mistakes in attempting to merge contemporary Germans into their past, implicitly exposing the distance between artist and subject, and between the subject and costumes
  • Aware of the demons and pitfalls of historical authority, Schorr probes at the space between identification and critique – a German boy in a feather boa, posed after Liliana Cavani’s The Night Porter, underscores her interest in the performative history of fetishism and uniform, and the way history shifts between documentary and fictionalization, distance and desire
  • August is the third volume in a series of books entitled Forests and Fields (Wald und Wiesen), following Neighbors/Nachbarn (2006) and Blumen (2010). Forests and Fields is intrinsically about book making, an ongoing suite of artists books that utilizes traditional notions of category to create different points of view. Each publication is part diary, photo annual, palimpsest, and scrapbook, and involves a process which constantly expands and contradicts the artist's oeuvre through re-edits of the work to create new views through the material. The books share similar dimensions but each is designed as an independent and unique work in itself. The final volume will be text based, a collection of commissioned and re-published writings inspired by the ideas explored in the pictures

Great sandals
Size: 8 Toddler, Color: Blue River Gem, Size: 8 Toddler, Color: Blue River Gem
I got these shoes for my 3-year-old. They are a good summer shoe that look good for everyday wear. I like that both straps are adjustable to help them to be more form-fitting to the foot. I like that the back ankle strap is *not* adjustable, because I don't feel the need for that one to be adjustable and also it's just kind of annoying because it's an extra thing that can potentially become undone. The whole shoe is foam including the uppers. One concern I have is that the sole is more slick than rubbery, so I'm concerned about these being slippery, especially with all of the summer activities that involve water. The footbed of the shoe has a bit of texture and seems comfortable. I appreciate that the sole bends easily to make them healthy for little feet that need to flex. These seem easy to clean, you could probably wash them in the washing machine, though I didn't see that anywhere so I don't know for sure. Overall, I find these to be high quality sandals and they are flexible for outdoor/wet situations as well as indoors.

Cute Shoes but Run Very Big
Size: 5 Toddler, Color: Lavender River Gem
Shoes are cute and seem like they would work well but sizing is off. I ordered size 12-18months which meant they ended up sending a size 5. My daughter currently wears size 3 or 3.5 so these were way too big. Ended up returning.

Toddler sandals
Size: 8 Toddler, Color: Tan River Gem, Size: 8 Toddler, Color: Tan River Gem
Overall, these shoes are great for keeping near the back door and having shoes to throw on when my son wants to play outside. However, I would not necessarily have these be every day shoes as they don't feel as durable as some of his other sandals. The bottom of the shoes don't have a lot of grip, so I would caution against using these as water shoes. They are very adjustable and flexible though. And for the price, these are great "let's go outside" shoes. I like the color and function of these shoes, and my son doesn't seem uncomfortable in them. My biggest gripe is how large a size 8 is. They seem very big for a toddler size 8. I put some earbuds next to them for a size comparison in case you're like me and order true to size. You may want to size down for these. Other than that, these do the job for the price point.

Way too big
Size: 6-9 Months Infant, Color: Mariposa White Leather
Adorable but sizing is WAY off. These are massive and look like toddler shoes on our (tall and bigger footed) 7 month old.
