huguette caland


i can't imagine why i'm not tripping over images from huguette caland everywhere. it's easy to lose a few hours just dipping a toe into what she's done. sublime

gabriele meyer is a professor of mathematics who likes to crochet hyperbolic forms in her down time. if that's not art i don't know what is!

talon abraxas


browsing through talon abraxas' i', reminded of that phrase from miss jean brodie that 'for those who like that sort of thing that is the sort of thing they like'. so while i may not be taken with some of his iamges i did like this.

arne svenson


if someone was to ask me how photography fitted into the canon of western art i could do worse than direct them to arne svenson. i could look at these all day. interesting contrast/comparison to the previous post on miroslac tichy

miroslav tichy


miroslav tichy - problematic in so many ways but his images are so arresting. you be the judge. that's what art's all about maybe?

vivian maier


what can creativity look like when it's outside sales, galleries and academia? like vivian maier that's what. i love the lack of biography for her, i love the fact she most likely wouldn't be happy about the attention she's getting now. and i love that because all it does is focus attention onto the images.
