The favourite photo books of 2011 are starting to arrive. This is the list published by the blog Des livres et des photos of the French newspaper Le Monde. The list is compiled by Maria-Karina Bojikian and Rémi Coignet.
It contains a couple of titles that I expect to appear on other lists like Permanent Error by Pieter Hugo, The Significant Savages by Grégoire Pujade-Lauraine and A Criminal Investigation by Watabe Yukichi. I was intrigued by the title A Guide to Trees for Governors and Gardeners by Yto Barrada.
The book I missed to my regret is The King of Photography by Tiane Doan na Champassak. It contains pictures of King Bhumibol taking pictures and is printed using Risograph quadtone printing.
