Full Description
Distress for Control reveals the unseen... This thought-provoking photographic essay unfolds against the backdrop of the "greatest private equity deal of all time".
It examines its far-reaching impact - how it enriched three billionaires, cost 2,500 people their jobs, and exposed the unsettling intersection of sexual abuse and high art. Through striking imagery, the book delves into the hidden forces and motivations that shape such events - a stark visual exploration of power, loss, and control.
The images were captured in the urban landscape around Arles - home to the world's largest photography festival. "Distress-for-control" is a stock market strategy in which investors deliberately drive a company into financial distress to gain control of it at a lower cost.
The REFRAME collection of pocket-sized books brings together radical ideas and bold design - affordable, sharply focused books with a clear perspective on the world.
