Tolstoy by Mikhaylovich Prokudin-Gorsky
“The process used involved a camera that would take a set of three photographs. These pictures would be monochrome but each picture would be taken using a filter of a different color. When all three monochrome pictures were projected (using light which had to be specifically colored) then the original color scene could be reconstructed. However, this took some time to take – hardly the point and click we are used to a century on – and so occasionally in Prokudin-Gorsky’s work you can see stray movements…”

Typology we can get into #1: Vector Portraits by Andrew Bush

I haven’t really been able to get into typology but I try to keep an open mind. Last weekend I saw Andrew Bush’s Vector Portraits at the Yossi Milo and came away liking them even more than when I first saw them a few months back. The large prints were impressive and created this very surreal Cali. vibe that I can relate too having lived there for 4 plus years. It’s an impressive body of work.
