Eric Baudelaire Stills from Sugar Water. I also recommend Site Displacement. “… Henri Bergson, who didn’t care much for cinema, wrote in “Creative Evolution” that in order to have an authentic intuition of duration, one had to experience it, and he took the example of sugar in a glass of water. The lesson seemed clear: […]

Ryan McGinley Work from Moonmilk. “McGinley describes his work as a journey, and his photographs form a ʻtravel logʼ which captures his experiences across the American landscape.

Koen Hauser
Saturday, 2 May 2009
Koen Hauser Work from the series De Luister van het Land, A la Recherche de l’Aventure Perdu and Opus Magnum Atomium.
