Coming and Going — Jim Goldberg. Published by MACK Books.
I'm a big Jim G. fan so I have been anticipating this one for a long time. It's big and messy and delivers the goods on so many levels! It's hard to constrain an artist like Goldberg in book form, he has such an extensive process of maquette making building up to the final book that inevitably I'm sure plenty of really cool stuff ends up left out, or different than a previous version, etc. I can't help but think of those alternative edits as a flip through. This book is a visual saga, a photographic autobiography delving deep into intimate familial dramas and touching on all of his known bodies of work and then some. Fans of his groundbreaking book Raised by Wolves will be excited to see new unpublished material from that work and even updates and tributes on some of the subjects/characters in that book. Incredible.
