Jeff Otto O’Brien Work from Revaluations. “Photography is often seen as an individual endeavor concerned with the documentation of external ephemera and objects. Taking a photograph, as it were, is an intensional act for the photograph is of something- the photographic subject. This commonly held view of photography, which often goes hand-in-hand with the notion […]

Anoush Abrar Work from Californication. “The film studios, the celebrities, the entertainment capital of the UnitedStates- the state of California revolves around the film industry and its success. Projecting an image of fame and fortune, beauty and happiness, Hollywood draws people like a magnet. I started this photo project in Los Angeles because I wanted […]

Erik Dalzen Work from Commodities. Active auctions here.  “Commodities is a collaborative project between me and spirited bidders.

Reiner Riedler Work from Fake Holidays. “When wishes are out of reach, simulation is taking over our leisure time and our holidays.

Cara Barer Work from The Book Project. “My photographs are primarily a documentation of a physical evolution. I have changed a common object into sculpture in a state of flux. The way we choose to research and find information is also in an evolution. I hope to raise questions about these changes, the ephemeral and […]

Georg Küttinger Work from landscapes:remixed. “The presented „landscapes:remixed“ are reflecting landscape photography and the relation between landscapes and the perception of their spaces.

Brad Moore Work from his oeuvre. “These photographs were shot in modest, well-worn, suburban cities in central and inland Southern California. Built in the 50s and 60s, these cities provided a new home and future to a post-war population. While Southern California’s coastal cities flourish, cities in these inland counties struggle.
