I was up late roaming links from one blog to another and came across this recent work by Tim Davis. I was in the front row in the seat just off the right of the frame. We are probably his largest group shot.

The Photography of Lynne Cohen seems extremely clinical at times with titles such as Laboratory, Spa, or Classroom. However, the humor comes in throught the repetition that blends such serious subjects with the unknown “fake” locations.
I have finally a chance to read throught this book that I have heard alot about. Take a look at some of the images below, it reminds me alot of Scott Fortino’s work
Columbia’s Lecture serries kicked off the year today with the visiting artis Atta Kim. These large scale images are made with long time exposures, up to eight hours. Kim seeks to explore fundamental questions of time and perception.

I was imaging Todd Hido’s books today in the Slide Library. It made me remember the long nights when i would go out wandering the suburbs when I had nothing better to do, It was the most peacefull time to make work. Check it out:

See the exhibition at 303 W. Erie (basement gallery)
I have been thinking alot about my influences lately. My work may not be very smilar to Dawoud’s, but he has helped me to see the world and my own work differently. Dawoud had a lecture tonight about the work in his new book Class Pictures.
“Because orange is the color of the future!”




As im sure many of you have heard by now, Chicago Photographer Pieter Ombregt has passed away after a bad accident in a bycicle race. I didnt really know him but i admired his work and see many connections to what i am doing in mine.
