as often is the case, the swimming events have produced some of the most bizarre & spectacular olympic games imagery; shown respectively: ‘clark’ USA, ‘seebohm’ australia and ‘arevalo salinas’ ecuador
ok that’s enough olympic mania for now, back to ‘normal’ stuff…
…what are those people doing, what kind of life do they have?…
a fascinating portrait series by photographer (and office neighbour) ralf mitsch who is portraying people with a more than average interest in tattooing their bodies…
a project by designer ‘ji-lee’ collecting logos that contain the now defunct ‘twin towers’ in nyc, like the towers themselves many of the logos may also disappear or change over time… in this way he aims to preserve and document them (see the embedded slideshow above)

two of my most favourite dutch posters ever: the 1987 ‘holland festival’ series from ‘studio dumbar’ with staged photography by ‘lex van pieterson’ and semi-opaque metallic, screenprinted text layers for the individual productions
these two have been living in a collection in london for decades and have now come back home to holland and into my own poster collection… which makes me a happy bunny
