Hippolyte Bayard: Mobile report #3 - SiFest 2011

Hippolyte Bayard: Mobile report #3 - SiFest 2011 | Photography Now | Scoop.it

For the third year in a row, I come back from the Savignano Immagini Festival (aka SiFest) with my eyes (and my ears) full of photography, of thoughts about photography, of faces from the world of photography. The 20th edition has been up to the task of celebrating such an important anniversary, and I will share some impressions with you through some posts on this blog.

The book jacket or cover, that single, simple printed sheet of paper: its primary function is to $€££. It needs to earn back the considerable investment everyone has made in planning, organizing, thinking about and realizing the book in its final physical form. There’s a hell of a lot riding on it. We all have to feel confident we’ve got it right.

"The Island is an ongoing project that documents life on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The long and narrow string of barrier islands for many is a vacation destination. For me, it is much more.

Conscientious Extended | A Conversation with Ute and Werner Mahler | Photography Now | Scoop.it

I remember then when I saw portraits from “Mona Lisas of the suburbs” by Ute Mahler and Werner Mahler for the first time, I was blown away. Seemingly very simple photographs, the portraits reveal enormous depth, while at the same time they are incredibly beautiful.

I was terrible at printing.. I always forgot the measurements, lost track of time, got lost in whatever music I was listening to. But I miss it terribly.. what I wouldn’t do for a dark room to escape to while seemingly having some purpose.
