FotoGrafia – Festival Internazionale di Roma 2010

Saturday, August 7th, 2010

Received word from curator Marc Prust that I have been chosen to be a part of this year’s FotoGrafia Festival Internazionale di Roma, September 23 thru October 24 2010 at the MACRO Testaccio in Rome with the photobook below. The theme of this 9th edition of FotoGrafia is FUTURESPECTIVES, or “Can photography interpret the future?” Stand by for more details.

UPDATE: images sent to Rome for show prep. Tried to get a flight to opening but airfare is waaaay too expensive.

A slightly larger edition of my American Tour photobook now for sale (for the first time I might add) at Blurb: http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/1496756. In softcover, approx. 8″ x 10″. (Was hoping for a smaller size but this is Blurb’s most compact offering.)

Electricity

Electricity and nature, balanced for the moment until one strikes out at the other, pulling down power line or burning from lightening strike.

SuperChurch Detroit

I see from South Woodward Ave. a new spire going up. If you could look around to the side of this construction you’d see that it spans a dozen or so football fields. I mean this is going to be big. HUGE.

On a pole on the way home last night. Royal Oak, MI. Zooming in on full-size image you can see the brush strokes of the painting artist signed “Estelle Janatto 12 70″

Red Cart In The Sunset

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

On my way back from the grocery in the late afternoon sun. Parked, discarded, as far as it could practically go out of the supermarket lot and far enough from the owner’s home to implicate guilt. Safely nestled now in the pines off Catalpa.

All Beef Hot Dog

Friday, June 18th, 2010

It may look small way down there at the end of the aisle but it is actually quite large. And all beef to boot. Scenes like this always call to me. Majestic and iconic. Almost inappropriate. If I could paint I’d do this scene in oils. John Michaels…are you listening…

Fresh Cuts of Faux

Saturday, June 5th, 2010

Downtown carnival with a new prize offering: fresh hanging cuts of fury faux lions and tigers. Like fuzzy sides of meat in a butcher’s playland. Or something like that. (Shhh…they’re sleeping…)

ATM Yes We Can

Give me liberty or give me poster, each waving to someone else. NYC, 2010.
