Head Hi is excited to announce the publication of their second book, co-published by Mousse, featuring the work of Milan-based architectural photographer Giovanna Silva. Titled Days without Number, New York, the book will feature a collection of more than 700 photos shot by Giovanna Silva during the last three years of long walks through NYC and include an introductory text from New York-based writer Sasha Frere-Jones.

The book is organized as a calendar, but it follows no sense of time and no chronology: it is a puzzle of images. Silva walked often more than ten miles a day guided by architecture, seeing as much as she could, obsessively passing by the same site again and again, exercising the body and the mind, mobility versus observation.

For the launch, Silva will discuss and present her work and then discuss the exploration of New York City's buildings, streets, and built environment with writer and musician Sasha Frere-Jones and Head Hi co-founders Alexandra Hodkowski and Alvaro Alcocer.

Speakers:

Giovanna Silva, Architect and Photographer

Sasha Frere-Jones, Writer

Alvaro Alcocer, Co-Founder, Head Hi
