“That’s it. Screw the internet. What is this Google+ shit? I’m done. Fuck all this social media shit and everyone who talks about it. It’s all boring. It’s all noise. Nobody writes anything interesting. They’re all drones churning out “content” for fascist overlords.”

The exhibition What Matters Now? Proposals for a New Front Page will combine the crowd sourcing of images and ideas with the curatorial engagement of six experienced individuals, each hosting a table and a conversation within the space, where on corresponding walls each group will present its proposals for the contents of a ‘New Front Page’. Hosts include a variety of visual image specialists: Wafaa Bilal, Melissa Harris, Stephen Mayes, Joel Meyerowitz, Fred Ritchin (who conceptualized this project) and Deborah Willis.

Before I Die is the amazing brainchild of New Orleans artist Candy Chang. She is using blackboards that line the outside of an abandoned home in New Orleans to encourage people to think about their hopes and dreams. It is a symbol of rebirth and a testament to New Orlean's resilience and creativity.

Brad Wilson knows how to take a portrait. His site is filled with stunning commercial and editorial portraits of a wide array of sitters, each captured with dignity and respect. He brings these same qualities to his fine art work.

I was introduced to João Canziani by Emiliano Granado. We met up for coffee a few months ago to talk about photography and during our conversation he told me about a new project he’d been working on about his homeland of Peru.

Photography is a tough occupation and the art world is competitive. It’s understandable that many people choose to make their work a labor of love and not pursue a career, or success in the art world. You can call it a hobby, or call them amateurs, but I think this is often an easy way to simply dismiss the work. I think this work has value, and I think there’s an abundance of interesting work being produced by amateurs. This is where we find the surplus.

Lately the pace of magazines announcing the folding of their ink on paper editions while continuing to publish on-line has increased. To those folks I have three words: YOU ARE DEAD. There is no ifs or buts about it.

Blake Andrews just published a post, writing "reinterpretation threatens to overtake generation as the dominant creative act in photography." Should we be worried? I don't think so.

Looking at George Georgious work for the first time, and its pretty great (thanks, JM!). I like how he made this video, previewing his new book Fault Lines: Turkey East West.
These are from that series.
