In "Scotlandfuturebog," photographers Nicholas Kahn and Richard Selesnick construct a strange world that they describe as being of "infinite promise that cannot possibly be described or communicated except by direct experience." The characters we meet are bogdwellers, inhabitants of a planet emptied by an apocalyptic event. Left to perform obscure ceremonies in an intriguing but uninviting terrain, the bogdwellers exist in a historical vacuum. This is a first-edition slip-cased book, signed and numbered by the artists. Nicholas Kahn and Richard Selesnick have been collaborating for more than a decade. They have exhibited worldwide and their work is held in galleries, museums and private collections. Scotlandfuturebog features a short story by Ben Marcus whose second novel, "Notable American Women," was published in 2002 by Vintage.

VG+ Exlib with stamps on endpages. Red cloth-bound slipcase with silver lettering. White dustjacket with b+w illustration and red lettering, red cloth-bound boards with silver lettering. Unnumbered pages, chiefly b+w illustrations. First edition of 1500 signed by the photographers. (#1006) 23 x 45 cm. In the imagined world of Scotlandfuturebog, photographers Nicholas Kahn and Richard Selesnick document a world both gloriously absurdist and peculiarly sublime. Mute bogdweller, primitive creatures of the future, are the sole inhabitants of a post-apocalyptic earth. Left to perform obscure ceremonies in a terrain as intriguing as it is uninviting, the bogdwellers exist free of the tyranny of the past. In this context, each action carries equal weight, and is equally inconsequential.
