Exhibition Review: Starr King / Lands End By John Chiara — Musée Magazine
Exhibition Review: Starr King / Lands End By John Chiara Written by Sophie Yates Edited by Jana Massoud John Chiara’s marvelous photographs are taken with cameras made by the artist himself - some the size of a small elephant - that take in light through photographic paper. To begin his process, Chiara positions himself inside one of his box cameras. One singular photograph takes him about half a day to capture.

A Chihuahua a Rabbit and a Cat uncover life's mysteries. Score with a Score 6 0 For those of you who listened to Scott today, did it make you uncomfortable when he doubted the veracity of the Loudon County rape victim’s story? Because it made me mad as hell. Maybe it’s because she’s a 9th grader. That means she’s probably 13 or 14. Maybe it’s because she had a rape kit. Maybe it’s because the perpetrator has been charged with three felonies, including forcible anal sodomy and forcible oral sodomy.

Robots Read News about imaginary whips 177 40 The Dems are The Party Of Division. They set race against race, gender against gender, the working class against the rich, the vaccinated against the unvaccinated, the 'woke' against everyone else and so on. Fear is their primary tool of self-empowerment. Chaos is their opportunity. People getting along is a dire threat to their agenda. The idea of a truly unified America gives them the hives. The more divided we are the more secure they feel.

Liking My Own Comics People sometimes ask me if I laugh at my own comics. I don't often laugh at them out loud, but I need to have some sort of reaction to them or I don't finish creating them in the first place. Here's an example of a comic that doesn't make my laugh out loud, but for some reason I can reread it infinite times and still enjoy it. It has that x-factor thing about it that you can't do intentionally. Sometimes it's just there. This one has that.

Robots Read News about . . . 284 71 Just read this in a Fox News article, "Only Chinese vaccines are currently being given in China, where authorities say more than 1.6 billion doses have been administered." What? They have administered 1.6 billion does? How is that physically possible? Here's the number, 1,600,000,000 moments in time when a person is injected with a vaccine. Is it logistically possible to manufacture, distribute, and administer that many vaccines in a single year?

Scott always talks about visual elements being the most effective form of persuasion. From a persuasion perspective I think Scott would probably agree this is a great visual. 6 0 Scott Adams apparently is on the learning curve about George Soros. This link has probably the most detailed and accurate Soros biography and political activities.

Interesting convo with an anti Trump friend today. Here are the claims: 1. Pfizer was not part of operation Warp Speed and took no money from the project. I remember that being an initial claim that was later proven false. Am I mistaken? 2. Operation Warp Speed was essentially useless for developing a vaccine because they already had the mRNA code needed, and technology ready, to produce an experimental vaccine. 3. Trump himself made statements against taking the vaccine.
Cherry Street near Pike Slip
In February, at an event at the 92nd Street Y’s Unterberg Poetry Center in New York, while sharing the stage with my fellow British writer Martin Amis and discussing the impact of screen-based reading and bidirectional digital media on the Republic of Letters, I threw this query out to an audience that I estimate was about three hundred strong: “Have any of you been reading anything by Norman Mailer in the past year?” After a while, one hand went up, then another tentatively semi-elevated.
New York Photos: Pike Slip to Sugar Hill
In the best tradition of great artists, John Chiara creates art that makes the old and familiar seem fresh, new and alive with possibilities and wonder. For his latest series of one-of-a-kind mural-size photographs of New York City, he designed and hand-built a giant camera that barely fits in the bed of a large rental pickup truck.
New York à la "camera obscura"
John Chiara nous offre des vues inédites de la ville de New York. Son appareil photographique, qu'il a conçu lui-même, est transporté à l'arrière de son pick-up. Sa technique nous rappelle les prémices du médium photographique ; parcourant les rues de Manhattan à la recherche d'éléments architecturaux, ses images sont directement exposées sur du papier couleur.

Photobooks 2017—25 Personal Favorites - Selection by a global panel of photographers, publishers, editors and more | LensCulture
On the top floor of Paris’ Picasso Museum, one is unexpectedly confronted with a collection of paintings not by Picasso: work from Gauguin, Cezanne, Matisse. Quickly, the canvases are put into context: these are masterpieces, painted by the artist’s predecessors and contemporaries, which inspired Picasso (and many of which he saw fit to add to his personal collection). In other words, these were some of the great painter’s favorite paintings.
Brave New Turkey - Photographs and text by Norman Behrendt | LensCulture
“Brave New Turkey” is a conceptual approach to documenting the newly built mosques that are popping up across the urban landscape. Known as the “Neo-Ottoman style,” these structures speak to a fresh turn in this country’s long history. Since 2015, I have regularly travelled to Turkey and visited the sprawling suburban districts of both the country’s capital, Ankara, and its biggest city, Istanbul.

California - Interview with John Chiara, plus 15 unique photographs
John Chiara’s one-of-a-kind mural-size camera obscura prints are luscious, moody and magical. He builds his own giant cameras (one which is large enough for him to climb inside) so he can expose light directly onto large sheets of photo-sensitive paper to capture images without needing film to act as an intermediate negative. His photos offer up ordinary urban landscapes that seem like three dimensional sculptures infused with light flares and liquid color.
La Nostalgia - Photographs and text by Antonio Privitera | LensCulture
Described as a medical condition—a form of melancholy—in the early modern period, nostalgia became an important trope in Romanticism. Nostalgia is associated with a wistful yearning for the past, its personalities, and events, especially the “good old days” or a “warm childhood.” This is a black-and-white long-term project about bodies, details, skin, sun, sand and shapes. I developed the story between the sea and people, without rules or purpose, just with the desire to be free and elegant.
A Different Light
John Chiara's photographs of the city use an inverted palette: Bright sky becomes pitch black; trees glow as if lit from within.
