Good Sick is the second monograph by Jordan Baumgarten featuring his hometown of Philadelphia and the complicated relationship he has with city in which he was born.
NYC this week: If you want to hear more about the book, GOST BooksĀ Director Stuart Smith will be giving a short talk as part of the Aperture Foundation PhotoBook Spotlight at AIPADĀ on Thursday, 5 April between 5.20pm and 5.40pm. Iāll be signing books at the GOST table (#75) on Saturday, 7 April at 4.00pm. Hope to see some of you there.
When Jordan Baumgarten and his wife moved into the neighbourhood of Kensington in Philadelphia in 2013, they were shocked by what they saw - sex workers, dealers and drug use, all in plain view on the street, with almost no oversight from the police. Faced with these scenes daily on his doorstep, Ba

Published April 2018 Limited to 650 copies 96 pp / 44 colour illustrations 220 x 288 mm portrait format Hardback clothbound ISBN 978-1-910401-19-4 ** SIGNED COPIES AVAILABLE ** 'Good Sick' by Jordan Baumgarten is a photographic portrait of the US opioid crisis, shown through its effects on one neighbourhood in Philadelphia. The neighbourhood of Kensington is a nexus for those in and around the city seeking heroin and all that it entails. The supporting addiction based economy co-exists alongside everyday life in the neighbourhood and in its surrounding landscape there are signs and premonitions of disorder and confusion. The photographs in this book depict chaos; nature encroaching on urban decay; an ambiguity between magic and darkness; private moments which are public; animals and humans roam free - fuelled by id, and always, somewhere, there is a fire burning. The images in 'Good Sick' are a small proportion of those taken by Baumgarten, a native of the city, between the winter of 2012 and the spring of 2017.
Thank you to everyone that bought prints, generously donated, and supported me in efforts to help bring my upcoming book to print. Iām happy to say that weāve reached our goal. Iāll be on press in Italy with GOST to print the book, Good Sick, mid January, with the release date some time in April. Much love to all youās guys.
Just wrote a piece aboutĀ Jordan Baumgartenās photographs.
It is about the challenges of consuming scenes of hardship. It is an article about us, others and the photographer in modern America.
BaumgartenāsĀ Slow Blink, Open Mouth project is difficult. Itās photographs are difficult in a number of ways. Theyāre difficult, first and foremost, because of their subject matter. These are hard scenesāāāmostly, struggling city lots populated by struggling folk. But, then again, when has our curiosity to view the lives of the downtrodden or addicted (from distance) ever stopped us gawking? We can always say we care about the issue and, by proxy, the people in the images ⦠even if itās only for as long as our browser tab is open.

Thoughts on Jordan Baumgartenās difficult images from Philadelphia
Thank you, Pete.
As many of you may know, I have been working on a project in my neighborhood over the past 5 years. Iām excited to say that GOST will be publishing the project, Slow Blink Open Mouth, into a book this fall/winter. While a book deal is in place, there are still costs associated with the printing of Slow Blink Open Mouth. I have set up a store through my website to sell $125 8x10 prints, in an edition of 25, in order to see this book come to print. Please pass this information around to anyone that you think may be interested. And, as always, thank you for your support.
