After banging on about the majesty of black and white last week, my brain immediately decided to go another way. Typical.
Candida Doyle from the This Is Hardcore video shoot, February 1998. From Paul Burgess and Louise Colbourne’s new book Hardcore: The Cinematic World of Pulp, a visual celebration of the band’s classic album, featuring unseen photography, behind-the-scenes interviews and other essays. Looks utterly gorgeous.
Marilyn Monroe during the filming of The Misfits by Elliott Erwitt, 1960. Sad to hear of Erwitt’s passing this week – he leaves behind an incredible body of work. Maybe it’s time to clear some shelf space for that copy of The Misfits: Story of a Shoot that I’ve been promising myself for years.
Henry Sene Yee continuing to fill my various social feeds with street photography joy. Hoping to get out and shoot some of my own in the new year – see if old York can compete with New York!
“The threads render the image fuzzy and almost unrecognizable as distant memories.” Loving Hagar Vardimon’s playful thread-collage (throllage? no) pieces, especially this Which Way the Wind Blows series. Curious to see the reverse.
Room 219, Holiday Inn, Winter Haven, Florida, November 16, 1977 by Stephen Shore. I’ve been scrolling through decades of Shore’s work, having just discovered he’s on Instagram, thanks to a very old AnOther post, Ten Things You Might Not Know About Stephen Shore.
