Holden's List
This is a museum. *If you have suggestions for Holden's List, please PM Holden. Thank you. Mar 07 07 11:28 pm Link Mar 07 07 11:30 pm Link i like the sky. Mar 07 07 11:34 pm Link Mar 07 07 11:34 pm Link . Mar 07 07 11:38 pm Link This will prove to be another interesting thread. **sits and watches with favorites button on stand by** Mar 07 07 11:41 pm Link Soybaby, photographer Maybe I will reveal his real name, later, if you are lucky.   The designer Shrinkle has called him the "Fillipino LaChappelle". I must disagree. What Soybaby is doing is entirely more contemporary than anything I've seen in the last two years of LaChappelle's oeuvre.  Mar 07 07 11:43 pm Link Mycol Chauncey, photographer He's very, very young and already doing shit like this:  When you can do a real diptych at 23 (or however old he is), you've got a career ahead of you. It's not just throwing two shots together. Mar 07 07 11:50 pm Link . Mar 07 07 11:55 pm Link Teru Yoshida   https://www.modelmayhem.com/pic.php?pid=123689 I've never worked with anyone so quiet and gentle. Apparently, all of the excitement and energy is transferred directly into the camera. He's also the proud owner of the famous San Francisco green chaise. You're nobody until you're photographed on it. It's a bit naughty, some kind of right of passage, definitely eerie. Mar 08 07 12:03 am Link Mar 08 07 12:14 am Link Mar 08 07 12:20 am Link

But, I would like you to do a further analysis on why YOU like it and why you consider this to be a "real" diptych. Mar 08 07 12:34 am Link K. Holden wrote: Take a look at this again. Yes. Mar 08 07 12:34 am Link Paramour Productions wrote: Will do. I'm actually going to start some real critique. I just am so excited to get these photographs up first. Mar 08 07 12:35 am Link On McNeill Though it's clear that each image is carefully thought-out, when looking at McNeill's work, I feel as if thought becomes aware of its fragmentary character. She is as aware as any artist should be. No part of the composition is superfluous. Nothing is ornamental. It's not a revolt against "pretty" or palatable, or publishable, as much as the work is a call to the sharp, a place from which no person can dissociate herself. McNeill studies color like Rothko, unafraid of experiment, yet with an intrinsic eye. Such stillness. A still more studied than a piece of a "movie" film, a still that halts the noise in the head, demanding attention of a good number of senses, numbing the rest. Mar 08 07 12:45 am Link On Hsu So much to the contrary--but not in opposition--Hsu's work is fast. In an expression of how much movement and photography as medium diverge from one another, the work meditates temporality. It's full of punctuation like the slash "/", saying Look at this / and/or this / or there's this one. It's what Manny Farber would call Termite Art, sincere insofar as the tradition itself makes itself out of the blurring of distinction between theme and occasion--worth noting that much of Hsu's work consists of photodocumentary pieces of fashion and music shows--constant and eating itself. Mar 08 07 12:52 am Link Agree with your picking Melissa and Miles. Worked with them both (Melissa maybe 20 times) two very talented MUA's Mar 08 07 12:54 am Link Star Foreman  Thank god for the Pic of the Day competition...I don't know if I'd have seen her work otherwise.   She needs to stop submitting so I can win one of these days.  Review to come... Mar 08 07 01:01 am Link I don't know, this stuff really doesn't do it for me. I like the conceptual nature of work. Not work that is all shine and no substance. Mar 08 07 01:02 am Link Aaron S wrote: Lane's work is fairly substantial. See above. Mar 08 07 01:05 am Link Mar 08 07 01:07 am Link K. Holden wrote: You know, it's funny. That shot wasn't taken too long ago, but, the process has evolved so much since then. Mar 08 07 01:12 am Link Mar 08 07 01:13 am Link Aaron S wrote: Yes! It is exciting! I go to the SFMOMA far too often just to stare at a particular Rothko. Mar 08 07 01:15 am Link I always enjoy the threads that introduce me to works I hadn't seen previously even if they may not pieces that particularly enjoy. There are 2 on here that I had not run across......thanks for sharing. Good list..... You're NO Schindler, but I have enjoyed it so far. Thanks. Mar 08 07 01:15 am Link It's this one:  My friend wrote a poem after it. I'll find that too. Mar 08 07 01:17 am Link K. Holden wrote: That'd be great. In London, at Tate Modern, there is the room of Rothko paintings. And I love just sitting there. I am reading Artist's Reality right now. Mar 08 07 01:18 am Link K. Holden wrote: and if ya don't own the Feldman piece "Rothko Chapel" (inspired my the space in Houston) you should. That Very painting is on the cover of the CD. Mar 08 07 01:21 am Link Well, I couldn't find the after-Rothko one, but here's another (and my journal owns the rights, ha ha!): COME ON DIE YOUNG James Meetze Le cyne sur le lac fait le scorpion a sa maniere --Picasso Water moves this way, tacitly slaking its burdens, appearing more than its own surface. The water is only a means of meandering, inherent in youth as glimpse of death, the sex of it. What could be more baroque, the soundscape, the interiors fashioned from a recurring dream? The swan as if to sing. The swan as symbol. When morning broke, was an oblique reflection of ardent longing. An eidolon of love that moves so slowly away, through a monologue on music or how they say come on, die young! Wetness is the heaviest charge. Swimming because the weight makes you hard. The Gauloise blue of eyes, of seeing straight the way Juan Gris saw a woman's face just slightly skewed. (c) Barn (v.) 2002 Mar 08 07 01:23 am Link I am going through a thing for commercial photographers right now, so I would prefer to link to their websites after confirming they are indeed on mm as well. but, I have just done a whole bunch of cleaning, so I am too apathetic to do anything but say, Rothko rocks, and here is another non mm PHOTOGRAPHER whose Taschen book (which does much better justice to his images) is by my bedstand right now. This guy needs more press outside of the netherlands. Large format film prints hand tinted with gouache. caution, some images are 18+ http://saudek.hit.bg/ Mar 08 07 01:23 am Link i'm enjoying the thread. thanks. Mar 08 07 01:23 am Link Webspinner wrote: Goodness, thank you. The apocolyptic images are interesting, especially considering the tension in "centered" images. Mar 08 07 01:31 am Link I might as well put the other images in this thread http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v196/Syphus/View.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v196/ … Bleach.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v196/ … nd3402.jpg Mar 08 07 01:39 am Link A thread I can learn from. This makes me happy. Don't forget Michelle! Mar 08 07 01:52 am Link  i would hang this in my apartment... i love it MM#244637 White Black Photography Mar 08 07 02:00 am Link |
