I ran across Dave Jordano’s work last week while viewing the book set 6×6 published by the Society of Photographers. Dave has several amazing projects shot in and around Chicago. The image above is from the project Simple Faith.
When I receive the New Yorker I flip to view the Cartoon Caption Contest, then quickly flip to the Goings on About Town. Fifty percent of the time Gus Powell has an image published on this page. His images are always a highlight. It’s hard to say that I have a favorite Powell image, but the one above always absorbs my interest. I love mystery in an image and this particular photograph is full of it.
This is an image from Corey Arnold’s project Arcticness. Humbe Arts Foundation is featuring the project with an interview in their current Solo Show. Be sure to check out the limited edition prints offered by Humble too.
It’s hard to pick a favorite Larry Sultan photograph. If I were forced to make a choice I would have to select the one above. Everything about this image is perfect. I wish I could get my hands on Sultan’s book Pictures from Home. It surprises me that it has never been re-released. I also wish I would have purchased The Valley when I had the chance.
This is an image from Simon Norfolk’s project Ascension Island: The Panopticon.
Taking an idea from Justin James Reed and Amy Stein, I have started a new category to spotlight an individual photograph that I can’t stop looking at. This weeks image belongs to Jesse Chehak.
