the ides

How is everyone?    Its been a while.   But I wanted to show you all some images that I have made in La Crosse, WI.   They are about the midwest, and March, and that lasting dirty snow, and the victorian era plays a role because it's furniture design and architecture are so visible here.  Hope everyone is great.  

Asger Carlsen

Really weird stuff today on photoeye email. Never heard of this person. "Honest take"?!

Asger Carlsen: Hester—Signed 

"Following the phenomenal success of Wrong, what could possibly topple the notion of truth and further question the photographic medium with all its tongue in cheek gusto and humorous horror. To answer, Asger brings us Hester, his honest take on the classic theme of the female nude. 

If the traditional nude occasionally intends to bare and reveal a final and ideal form through ad hoc stance or sculptural immortality, Asger revises the study of the female form to ultimately reveal the evolving terrain of photography and its standards of aesthetics and morality." —the publisher
