Paula McCartney - Bird Watching →
Bird Watching combines varied natural settings with carefully placed craft store songbirds to create an enhanced landscape.

Photography is used to explore the idea of constructed landscapes, with natural history...

Arno Schidlowski - Summa
SUMMA (2005) artist´s  book 50 pages, 30 c-prints - The work deals with a field of tension between the instinctive behaviour of animals and the documentary-analytical evaluation of the humans as observers. It is trying to connect both levels conceptually by already stating the image-originating process as an approximation to the emotive, intuitive action of the animal. The photographer ...

Hiroshi Watanabe - Suo Sarumawashi
When I grew up in Japan, Sarumawashi (direct translation: monkey circling, i.e. monkey dancing) was common thing to see on streets.  They came on holidays and for festivals, but they also came randomly when there were no apparent reasons to celebrate.  I was fascinated by the monkeys.  Who wouldn’t be, when you are a child, by small creatures dressed like people doing tricks, dancing, and...

Roger Ballen - Boarding House
The focus of these photos is on a strange and alluring place near Johannesburg that Ballen calls the Boarding House.  It is crowded with poor workers, transients, criminals hiding from the law, witchdoctors, children, pet animals and insects.  There are stains, marks and mysterious drawings everywhere. These photographs are like images from a waking dream – compelling, thought ...

Giacomo Brunelli - The Animals
I have been working on the series of animals for five years and with them I want to photograph my own reaction in their presence. When I was a child I used to spend time playing with animals and I think that is why I push the lens often to its closest point of focus, almost touching the subject and forcing flight or fight from the animal, which is when I then record its reaction.” All...
