I’m not a boxing fan, but I thought the original photos are interesting (if for nothing else, getting to see the original crop marks).

An Invisible Street Photographer Gets His Close-Up - New York Times

Not only is this a great story, but the photos really are wonderful. And my favorite part, he shot everything with a leica M3, on black and white film (did you realise they still make that stuff). More samples of Gary Stochl’s work is available at The Center for American Places (publisher’s of his book). Mr. Stochl is represented by Shashi Caudill, but I have been unable to find a web site for her.

How is this for a resume accomplishment, “I had the largest single show by a photographer ever at the MOMA.” I think they give out a wallet with largest shows by a photographer that says ” Bad Ass Motherfucker.”

Lee Friedlander, in reference to his work, once said, “somebody else could walk two feet away to get those poles and trees and stuff out of the way, I almost walk two feet to get into it, because it is part of the game that I play, it isn’t even conscious.”

Crewdson is an artist that I am not very familiar with, but I am very intrigued by the direction he is taking his work with the use of digital. Some of the pieces look like a logical extension of the film still idea.

His work is represented at White Cube (the site is not very friendly, but there is a large sample of Crewdson’s work). Also, the work is reviewed in a Guardian article.

The NY Times has a review of Lucas Samaras’s show. The thing that makes his show different is that collectors who purchase his work will be buying a mac with all of his digital files stored on it. This idea has tons of possible implications and ramifications, only a few of which are discussed in the article, such as distribution or duplication of the art.

Now he is receiving less than flattering reviews of his latest work in a show at Mary Boone. Larger versions of Eric Fischl’s new works from his website.
I see little change in the last twenty years, but he is consistent. Bedroom Scene #3.

An interesting article, although I take exception to some of the assumptions leveled at the gum bichromate process . . .

Larry Clark, of KIDS fame, has a show of his still photographs opening at the International Center for Photography. This is slightly controversial because the intended direction of the center was supposed to be photojournalism, but to me this controversy is splitting hairs. The NY Times has an interesting article dealing more with the center.
