Capitolio
1.  Capitolio by Christopher Anderson

God Spoiled a Perfect Asshole When He Put Teeth in Yer Mouth
2.  God Spoiled a Perfect Asshole When He Put Teeth in Yer Mouth by Dash Snow

Mitch Epstein: Family Business
4.  Mitch Epstein: Family Business by Mitch Epstein
The list author says:

Isolated Houses
9.  Isolated Houses by John Divola

We English
11.  We English by Simon Roberts

The British Landscape
12.  The British Landscape by John Davies
