Stefan Exler

Lately, it isn’t heard much of Stefan Exler and his carefully composed photos taken from under the ceiling. Too bad. Compare to Andreas Gefeller.

Valentina Zanobelli

Out in the woods. From the “Trance” series by Valentina Zanobelli.

Karin Geiger

Karin Geiger explores the tensions between public and private, childhood and adulthood, subject and artist, art and sociology. Her documentation of garage sales around Los ANgeles is so good.

Back in the days, when I was a teenager when I didn’t have status when I didn’t have a pager?

A different type of skate photography

British born Nick Haymes (1969) now living in NYC has got a background in fashion photography, his images are close to the subjects and capture the joyful moments of life. So skateboarding tricks are not his territory, but the side action that happens when a bunch of skateboarders are together. Look inside his book ‘Between Dog and Wolf’ and see his works for Teen Vogue or the Bespoke Gallery.
