If you’re in a rush (as I so often seem to be) it’s dangerous to visit Lens Culture<\/a>, where a new issue is now on line. There is a ten-minute interview with Roger Ballen<\/a><\/em> about his work, nicely done and one of the earliest of a new video series, Lens Culture: Conversations with Photographers<\/em>, though perhaps the music was just a little overdone.\u00a0 There is another with Simon Roberts<\/a><\/em> too.<\/p>\n

Completely new to me were the black and white portraits of kids at play by which Jim Caspar found in a contest at The Center for Fine Art Photography<\/em> in Colorado that he was asked to judge.\u00a0 Some of Donna Pinckley<\/a><\/em>‘s pictures have a quality that reminded me of Diane Arbus<\/em>‘s kid with a hand grenade, (see the contacts and read more about Colin Wood, interviewed 41 years after the exposure in the San Francisco Chronicle<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

There is also a feature Chaotic Harmony: Contemporary Korean Photography<\/a><\/em>, a review of the book accompanying the show of 40 contemporary Korean photographers at The Museum of Fine Art<\/em>s in Houston and the Santa Barbara Museum of Art<\/em>. With 13 images it gives what can only be a very partial idea of the work but may whet your appetite; if so, the book\u00a0 Chaotic Harmony: Contemporary Korean Photography<\/em>\u00a0 (ISBN: 0300157533 \/ 0-300-15753-3, Tucker, Anne Wilkes; Sinsheimer, Karen; Koo, Bohnchang<\/em> is available for around \u00a318 including delivery from the cheaper UK suppliers.<\/p>\n

Don’t fly out to Houston as Chaotic Harmony<\/a> closed there earlier this month; but the page is still worth visiting for the audio there. Still showing in Houston is Your Bright Future: 1<\/a>2 Contemporary Artists from Korea<\/a> <\/span>continues until Feb 14th – and you can see an interesting presentation <\/a>on it on their site.\u00a0 Chaotic Harmony <\/em>will be on show at Santa Barbara from July 3\u00a0– September 19, 2010.<\/p>\n

Too much more of interest to mention, and I have to get down to some other work. If you’ve got any time to spare don’t miss Lens Culture<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
