Jo Schwab Photography


quote [Jo Schwab lives in Berlin. His portraiture is the antithesis of the generic, passive insipid nude. His meticulously chosen models emanate soul – piercing gazes down the lens, poetic awkwardness and poignant strength].

Jessica Harrison Artwork


HomePage quote [The things I make are about the body: the body in space, the space within the body and the space in-between the two. The body is something we all share in one shape or form, the filter through which we all experience the world around us and the objects in front of us].

Ana Teresa Fernandez Artwork


HomePage - Electric Works quote [“My work consists of paintings, which derive from a postmodern strategy of staged, photo-documented performances. My paintings, depicting women engaged in everyday domestic chores, confront labor and power. Of what use is a woman’s body? As a young girl growing up in Mexico, I learned at an early age about the double standard imposed on women and their sexuality...].

Elvis Di Fazio Photography


Blog - MySPace quote [Bright and ballsy, Di Fazio’s photos flash with kitsch erotica – a tongue slowly swirling in cheek. Di Fazio’s style has quickly unfurled, dancing from precise and emotive portraiture with a classic bent to something distinctly modern in its appeal].

Sandra Torralba Photography


LINK quote [I had for a while a long statement that attempted to explain who I am and why do I do what I do. It made sense to write it. I had just turned my life upside down: I abandoned my job and profesional career to become a photographer and moved back to my hometown after 4 years abroad. I needed to understand and make sense of my life to whistand the vertigo and the trepidation I was experiencing].

The Surreal World & Art of Christopher Leach


LINK quote [Well my life has been a little bit like that, anyway my artistic life certainly has. Instead of a shiny strange coloured pebble my charm has been the tiny innocent idealized girl's face that often follows me from drawing to drawing. I think I first met her in a Picasso drawing of 1919 entitled 'Italian Peasants' when I was trying to find a way to draw faces. She has taken many guises because for me she has become the mysterious women of my art].

Dirty Diaries: Swedish feminist porn


LINK quote [One look at the trailer on the front page of Dirty Diaries and I think you’ll agree with me in thinking that Swedish feminist porn is not boring. Oh my, no no. While I’m disappointed that there aren’t more videos to share with you showcasing the 12 shorts that comprise the Dirty Diaries feature, and that it’s only available on DVD from Sweden].

Andrew Kuykendall Photography


LINK quote [Video projects are very exciting at the moment. It’s just something new to play with and figure out so that’s fun. I also just finished a book of my Polaroids over the last 10 years. It’s very sexy and fun and everyone should buy one for their coffee tables. And if they don’t have coffee tables they should buy one anyways].
