With that in mind, here are our book picks among eclectic titles on art, photography, film-making, architecture, urban design, absurdist pedagogy, extreme on-set BTS, obsessive pen-pals, fantasy illustration, Indigenous identities, and the inner and activist lives of artists-all perfect for smartening up your own bookshelves or those of someone you love.
The rich visual narrative and associated conversations touch on aspects of the auteur's creative process across all of her films, from The Virgin Suicides (1999) to Lost in Translation (2003) and her forthcoming feature about Priscilla Presley's time at Graceland.
Channeling the visual conventions and tonal armature of commercial/fashion/celebrity/advertising photography but infusing that lexicon with upsetting surrealism and an assertive lack of contextualizing copy, Toilet Paper is a drastic intervention in our somnambulistic media consumption, and a work of art in its own right.
