This is not a book. This is an invitation, a container for unstable images, a model for further action. Here is the formula: Riley and his story. Me and my outrage. You and us. Riley was a friend in college and later served as a nurse at Abu Ghraib prison. This is a container for Riley's digital pictures and fleeting traumatic memories. Images he could not fully secure or expel and entrusted to me. Art can be a series of acts and challenges. Currently the artwork is an object in your hand - organized, mobile, tactile - a stable site to see information once elusive. The artist can mobilize information by provoking, listening, imagining, organizing and reorganizing. Right now, I am the artist. I want you to see what this war did to Riley. Pay attention. This experience happens right in your lap. To make it happen, you must read compassionately, then actively. Then the experience happens wherever you take this container and whenever you respond to my invitation. You and us, yes. Then you and another. This invitation is a model for veterans, families and friends to speak and share openly with each other. The artwork and artist are adaptable; you, the tactical reader, can use this object for your own device, or you can attend to another archive in need of careful attention. This is not a book. It is an object of deployment.

Paperback. Fine paperback with a touch of rubbing at the edges, otherwise, as new. BOOKS SHIP THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY, WRAPPED IN PADDING, IN A BOX. "Monica Haller's project Riley and His Story presents the daily life of the Iraq war, as lived and photographed by Riley Sharbonno, an army nurse who served at Abu Ghraib prison from 2004-2005. Riley used his camera as an almost prosthetic device to record the events his memory suppressed; on other occasions he used the camera to 'store' overwhelming experiences with the aim of processing them later. Many of these images are indeed overwhelming and the photo pages in this book are variously sized, creating intersection and overlap to mimic the unstable nature of such memories and convey the blurry jumble of amnesia and trauma." The book won an award of excellence at the 2009 London Artists Book Fair. Photographs and text by Riley Sharbonno; additional photographs by Parker Hahn; conceived and edited by Monica Haller with an introduction (printed on the front cover.) "Second edition" (first paperback edition.) 480 pages; color plates throughout; 6.25 x 8.75 inches. Text in English. Nº de ref. del artículo: 21654

Hardcover. Condición: New. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. Printed paper-covered boards; no dust jacket as issued. Photographs and text by Riley Sharbonno. Additional photographs by Parker Hahn. Edited and with cover text by Monica Haller. Graphic design by Matthew Rezac. 482 pp., with full-bleed, four-color plates throughout. 9-1/4 x 6-1/2 inches. This first edition was limited to 1000 copies. [Cited in Martin Parr and Gerry Badger, The Photobook: A History, Volume III. (London and New York: Phaidon, 2014)]. New in publisher's shrink-wrap. A massive collection of unforgettable photographs (with equally memorable text) taken by Riley Sharbonno, an Army nurse at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, serves as the foundation for this anti-war artist's book by Monica Haller. Although Haller edits and introduces the book with a short text reproduced on the front cover, the real story here belongs, rightly, to Sharbonno, whose photographs are both records of and distancing mechanisms from what he saw and experienced.
