JASPER DE BEIJER

Dutch artist, Jasper de Beijer, is currently having an exhibit at MCA Denver. He has a wicked process for creating a single piece of art and presents an interesting perspective on photography and the photographic process. He takes photographs, creates sculptures/models out of those photographs; then photographs these three-dimensional creations with the objective of the final photograph being the piece of art to be exhibited. It’s an unusual exhibit because MCA Denver is including a selection of miniature props de Beijer made and then photographed as a key element of his process. The artist also works on a computer to alter the photos before they’re printed. Interestingly enough, this is the first time that the models and the photos have been brought together in a single display.

EURO STEEZ

Shannon and I recently traveled to Paris and London, and were blown away (as expected) by all things visual. I’d like to share some random tidbits from this truly inspirational trip with you all (everything from ads to classical sculpture). The pics start out with a French metro ad featuring illustrator extraordinaire, Jamie Hewlett, and ends with a massive photo mosaic outside the National Gallery in London. Enjoy!!!

MATT PROPERT - PHOTOGRAPHER

I drink coffee with Matt a few days a week. We shoot the shit. Kick it for a few, but never get too deep. I had no idea Matt was a photographer until sAne sent me over a link to Matt’s site. He and sAne have some climbing history and subsequently are pretty tight. I mentioned to Matt today that I’d peeped his work and was stoked. In typical creative fashion he just brushed the commentary aside, stating that “that shit’s pretty outta date, my web guy is in England, and it’s been tough updatin’ the site”. Well, regardless - Matt’s photos are dope and Matt’s a super rad dude. Check his site even if it is a bit dated. We all know what a bear it is keeping our frikin websites up to date…

FREESTYLE MOVEMENT (SANE)

Adri.n Robert [sAne.] || The Towne Cryer a.k.a. “Dr. Dri” just returned from an other worldly adventure including delving into the world of Frence high fashion photography, illustrating in Spain, and bouldering in Arkansas. It’s good to have him back. Adri.n is preppin’ for his March show here at the shop and workin’ on some top-secret product and apparel designs. He just sent us over some pics and a sample of his ever-evolving illustrative style.

Here’s what sAne had to say about his images, “the intricacy of light was a recurrent concept in my travels; from temperature, to interactions between different sources and textures, i sought the right composition of light rather than particular subject matter, time, or place, and found great enjoyment in refining my abilities to perceive and differentiate between different kinds of light.”

    “WE SUFFER PRIMARILY … FROM OUR ILLUSIONS. WE ARE HAUNTED, NOT BY REALITY, BUT BY THOSE IMAGES WE HAVE PUT IN PLACE OF REALITY. AMERICA WENT TO WAR NEARLY FIVE YEARS AGO AFTER AN ORCHESTRATED CAMPAIGN OF FALSE STATEMENTS BY THE NATION’S TOP OFFICIALS, A WAR BEGUN UNDER THE ILLUSION OF AN IMMINENT NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT. WE ARE HAUNTED BY A WAR BEGUN, IN OTHER WORDS, UNDER FALSE PRETENSES.” - DANIEL BOORSTIN, THE IMAGE (1961)
