The Great Heisenberg begins its series of “Great Read-Outs” with Kenton
Turk, whose stories prove at turns tantalizing, tortured, touching and

take on things.

Miron Zownir, once labeled by the American author Terry Southern as THE POET OF
RADICAL PHOTOGRAPHY, took up photography in the late 70s during the
hey-days of the punk-phenomenon, delivering a tight portrayal of the
