アメリカ人フォトグラファー、トッド・ハイド（Todd Hido）の作品集。本書は、かつての良き時代を彷彿とさせるモーテルの一室にいる無名のモデル達のポートレイトと、廃墟となった家々の写真で構成された印象的な一冊。古びて薄汚れたものの内面にある美しさを輝かせる鋭い感性を持ち、その魅力が遺憾無く表出した初作品集「HOUSE HUNTING」やその後に刊行された作品集「OUTSKIRTS」は現在絶版となり入手困難な希少本として扱われている。贅沢なサイズの横一判型に、35枚の写真が美しく印刷され仕上がっている。

Todd Hido's striking monograph, Between the Two, weaves photographs of abandoned houses together with portraits of anonymous models in motel rooms that have obviously seen better days. Hido's uncanny ability to let seediness shine with an internal beauty was first displayed in book form with his 2001 monograph, House Hunting. That first monograph, as well as his follow-up book Outskirts, are now out-of-print, and highly sought-after in the rare book market. Between the Two comprises 35 photographs beautifully printed on matte art paper, and bound in an oversized format. The second printing is limited to 2,000 case bound copies. Todd Hido's work has been widely exhibited throughout the United States and Europe, and is included in the permanent collections of such museums as the Cleveland Museum of Art; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
