Dog Food is a unique photography zine combining mostly archival material with a bit of satire and cynicism, published by Red Hook Editions. The dog was the symbol of the Ancient Greek cynics because they lived simply and sniffed out the truth, not unlike photographers. So we made a zine with food for dogs… and food for thought! –Jason Eskenazi, Dog Food co-founder and co-publisher
