Simon Berg

Simon Berg Work from APAN ÄR RÄDD. You can buy the book here. “An intense portrayal of a seemingly meaningless everyday life. But these intimate close-ups show us something other than just eternally recurring routines. For out of the cracks from the civilized facade seeps another story forward, the story of a life where every […]

Lisa Tan

Lisa Tan Work from Based on a True Story and Happenstance. “Included in this exhibition is the piece titled, Letters from Dr. Bamberger, 2001-ongoing. I have aestheticized my relationship with my general physician, Dr. Mark Bamberger. It is his practice to send letters to his patients after they have had an annual physical. The quasi-performative […]

Liu Bolin

Liu Bolin Work from Camouflage. “Are human beings animals? Chameleon has the unique property of changing hues to match the color of the surroundings for self-protection. Rattlesnake can bury most of the body in sand soil. This can not only protect itself but also have a better access to food. There are also many animals, […]

Aimee Brodeur

Aimee Brodeur Work from Sculptures and Diary. There was no text to be found about this work, but they function so well as photo sculptures I wanted to share them. I am particularly drawn to the process errors in these works as an aesthetic, but I am not sure if their intent moves beyond that. […]

Gert Jan Kocken

Gert Jan Kocken Work from Judenporzellan. “Street photographers have only a vague notion of what they’re looking for.

In the case of Dutch visual artist-photographer Gert Jan Kocken, the process is exactly the opposite. He knows what he’s […]

Tema Stauffer

Tema Stauffer Work from American Stills. “To perceive and subsequently reveal an inherent beauty in what may be characterized as “commonplace” requires the observer (i.e. the photographer) to consider specifically the act of seeing what is “there” or simply what “is.” Images that suggest recognition and acceptance of the banal differ from those, perhaps more […]

Caleb Cole

Caleb Cole Work from Other Peoples Clothes. “At the heart of my work is a fascination with ambiguities and inconsistencies, an interest in how I go about negotiating areas of grey and how others manage to do the same. When I am in public, I watch people going about their daily routines alone; I wonder […]

Jason Lazarus

Jason Lazarus Work from his oeuvre. “Regarding all photographic projects cumulatively, I am interested in the role of the contemporary artist as hell-raiser, prophet, failure, and historian. Whether it is the possibilities of the conceptual self-portrait, the awed irony of an American attending an airshow in 2006, or a picture of a picture, the photographic […]
