Peter Funch – Babel Tales

Un superbe travail de reconstruction d’images par l’artiste danois Peter Funch vivant à New-York. En effet, il a rassemblé plus de 20 clichés pris à différents moments de la journée afin de montrer que chacun de nous fait la même chose au même moment dans la rue.

Type Tuesday: Elizabeth Soule


Elizabeth Soule uploaded these to her Flickr stream last night and they immediately caught my eye! I asked her what inspired these images:

“I found these letters at a shop, there was a whole set of them that I originally bought to spell out generic words that you would see on card, like “thank you”, “happy birthday”. While photographing I was really uninspired by “happy birthday” and began to play around and think of adjectives that or phrases that I like to use or hear often. I chose a solid colored background to let the letters pop and to also enhance the mood that each word made me feel. The cameras are the beginning of an idea “if these objects could talk” that I’m exploring.”

Please visit Elizabeth’s new shop; there are many beautiful prints and cards.

Good morning! It’s a holiday Monday and the Art Central building and thus UPPERCASE is closed today. Sorry for the inconvenience.


Some shots in the Mennonite thift store in Altona, Manitoba where I had a nice wander while waiting for a job to print at Friesen’s.

World Press Photo winners


World Press Photo of the Year 2008: Anthony Suau, USA, for Time. US Economy in Crisis: Following eviction, Detective Robert Kole must ensure residents have moved out of their home, Cleveland, Ohio, 26 March

US photographer Anthony Suau has won Photo of the Year at the 52nd World Press Photo contest. Suau’s winning photograph shows an armed officer of the Cuyahoga County Sheriff’s Department moving through a home in Cleveland, Ohio, following an eviction as a result of mortgage foreclosure. As jury chair MaryAnne Golon points out, the image is “a double entendre. It looks like a classic conflict photograph, but it is simply the eviction of people from a house…. Now war in its classic sense is coming into people’s houses because they can’t pay their mortgages.”

Alexandre Duret-Lutz

Dans le même esprit que l’album Little Planets, Alexandre Duret-Lutz a mis au point une technique photographique permettant de créer des mondes à partir de panorama 360°. A la limite de l’abstraction, il s’agit d’un formidable travail de projection stéréographique.
