between common sense and uncommon nonsense

i just got hold of a beautiful new book by photographer, artist and (rietveld academy) teacher uta eisenreich who uses photography as a means rather than an end in itself, the publication entitled ‘A not B’ consists of a series of striking or mundane, installations inspired by non-verbal IQ tests for children using everyday domestic objects… the book design was in the very competent hands of julia born and can be ordered via arty publisher roma

he kept them under a pooltable at his home…

here’s one of those ‘i found a rembrandt in the attic’ stories: a fella who had an original set of glass negatives from legendary landscape photgrapher ‘ansel adams’… fancy buying a print?

…rick norsigian thought he had a bargain when he managed to haggle down to £30. Just imagine his joy, then, when he had them valued ten years later and was told that their true worth was £128.5million…
