New photography blog: Sunny f.16

December 6th, 2009 § 0

I have started an independent blog on photography with my friend Lorenzo Durantini.  He is both a photographer and writer, and most of the time we share our views on art & photography.

We intend to create a forum blog where we can review and comment on what we consider great fine art photography (and what we consider bad photography), and  readers can discuss the use and misuse of today’s most mainstream visual medium.

I give you, Sunny f.16 :

Pieter Hugo: The Hyena & Other Men

December 2nd, 2009 § 2

Pieter Hugo… he’s been around for some time, but only last year he managed to impress most of us with The Hyena & Other Men. An amazing series of photographs about the creolization between wilderness and urban, and the relation between man and other species.

His new book, Nollywood, is a mix of horrific characters from the film industry of Africa and reality. Some of his images were at the Paris Photo and he is currently exhibiting Nollywood at Galleria Extraspazio in Rome.

Hugo seems to be going in the direction of an amalgamation of visual, cultural and social elements which give a sense of the fantastic to the worlds he constructs, and at the same time documents.

This year the westPhoto event will be big.  With many guests from the photographic industry it will be a good chance to network and enjoy a new years/x-mas drink.

I will surely be there harassing academics and curators…

Oh, and the poster/eflyer is by me.

The time has come to get my fingers back on the keyboard.  I’ve managed to avoid typing all along the summer in London, which by the way, everybody knows the summer here has nothing to do with what the rest of the world knows it for.   » Read the rest of this entry «
