Martin Parr’s collection of photobooks is one of the finest to have ever been assembled and The Protest Box is a box
set which brings together five books from that collection as facsimile reprints. Parr has selected diverse books which
each deal with the subject of protest in quite different ways. From the documentation of various protest movements to
the actual book being a form of protest, all these reprints are gems within the history of photographic publishing. A
few are known but many are new, even to the connoisseur of photography books. All these books are virtually
impossible to locate, so these reprints will make a substantial contribution to our understanding of this sub-genre of
the photobook. The box set is accompanied by a booklet which includes an introduction by Martin Parr, an essay
discussing the wider context of these books by Gerry Badger, and English translations of all the texts in the books.
Enrique Bostelmann América: un Viaje a traves de la injustica
First published in 1970 by Siglo XXI Editores, Mexico City; Bostelmann, a Mexican photographer, journeyed through
Latin America looking for examples of injustice, such as the exploitation of indigenous Indians who were forced into
factories and menial jobs.
Paolo Gasparini Para verte major, América Latina
First published in 1972 by Siglo XXI Editores, Mexico City; Gasparini, an Italian born photographer who has lived in
Caracas most of his life, traversed Latin America to document the contrast between communism and capitalism. The
book also documents and uses graffiti and graphics to emphasis his polemic.
Dirk Alvermann Algeria

book about both sides of the Algerian conflict in East Berlin. The radical design was inspired by Russian film stills.

by the proposed building of Narita airport.
