The strangeness of familiarity. As a visual artist, I can only say I was blessed to be born in Romania. In my country, almost everything is a picture. I do not have to search for images, I just live my life and pictures happen. Actually, the more I live my life the better my images get. People here have a specific quality, a sort of external image of poverty mixed together with profound internal abundance and creativity. A wonderful balance of roughness and sensibility. It all just comes together naturally, like an old pair of shoes you’ve worn thousands of times, they look worn out, but they’re your favorite pair, they’re comfortable, and then there’s all the memories you have together, places you’ve been, people you’ve met. You look at them and they make you smile. There is a lot of beauty in familiarity, like the classic Dacia car made in communist Romania, a symbol of nostalgia. All Romanians look upon it with fondness, especially the older generations but not because it was made in communist times but because it used to be the Romanian all inclusive family car. There are countless personal family memories attached to the car's instantly recognizable image. As a child I was, and still am, passionate about nature. I used to collect cactus plants, I had over 100 species of cacti and over 300 plants in total, I liked looking at them and I did it almost every day. As I watched every individual plant I knew every plants story of how I came to possess it. Some I grew from seed, some I bought from other collectors, there were some I got as a gift and some I stole from botanical gardens. There was always a story there. So, for me the image of each cactus plant contained this precious memory of time spent together. Family pictures work the same way, there is the picture, the actual physical photograph, and then there is the memory attached to it, the metaphysical or spiritual side of the image. My approach to photography is similar to the family snapshot, yet somehow it is the opposite, I already have the memory and I’m now searching, or rather waiting for the memory to manifest itself. The result is strangely familiar. The images in this project were made by Ovidiu Gordan in the counties of Sălaj, Bihor and Cluj, Romania, between 2007 and 2017

THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW (by Owen Hatherley): This wonderful book documents the architectural results of another Soviet anniversary – the celebrations of the centenary of Lenin’s birth in Ulyanovsk, formerly Simbirsk, the small city on the Volga where he was born. Told by the authorities in Moscow that the ‘door would be open’ for them to modernise their mainly wooden, one-storey, Tsarist city for the duration of the celebrations, and that they’d close it immediately when it was over, the local Party rushed to build a Museum, a Library, a Palace of Culture, housing, an Airport and the high-rise Hotel Venets before the tap of money and resources was turned off. In its first year of opening, two Poles, 70 Britons, and more than 3,000 East Germans arrived to stay in the Hotel Venets, and we get to read the inventory of difficult questions they answered (‘can we see how people live in those little wooden houses?’), and find out how hotel staff took it out on the guests.

Combining Polaroid photography and texts in English and Arabic, this book presents creative practices of design that occur on the sidewalk along with the unplanned interventions in the public space that give Cairo its distinctive character. Organized i …
