Lisa Yuskavage, American | 1962 - present | Painting an drawing.

Creates provocative, color-saturated paintings of female figures set in surreal landscapes and dramatically lit interiors, blending Renaissance techniques with contemporary pop culture.

Her work challenges conventional representations of the nude, using heightened sexuality and lush brushwork to confront the male gaze and explore complex ideas about femininity and power.

Major exhibitions include MoMA, Whitney Museum, and Baltimore Museum of Art. Represented by David Zwirner.

I love the deadpan style and the dry sense of humor of Dutch photographer Barbara van Schaik.

Why I love this book (in mind-popping order):

• The Edges book is in landscape orientation, which avoid pictures breaking over the book the fold in the middle.

• Harry Gruyaert takes pictures that many consider boring.

• Grainy-ness is a great feature.
• Gruyaert does not shy away from taking pictures from a distance - versus close Robert Capa quote (mis)interpretation "a picture is not good enough if it is not close".
• The colors.
• The broccoli picture.
• Simplicity (deceptive).
