The Iron Books – a new iPhone Photography Exhibition in London
The Gasoline Rooms are proud to host the visual and textual work of Andreas Philippopoulos Mihalopoulos. The Iron Books is a series of thirty material poems that trace, photographically and textually, the posthuman condition. The works originate in Instagram, shot and written instantly without editing. They are here transposed onto metal books that oscillate between the fleeting and the monumental. The Iron Books are iPhonographic and philosophical poems erupting with fear, desire, sexuality, vulnerability, geological angst, and the displaced sense of property and belonging of the posthuman era. The show is curated by aKwamarina. A limited edition publication designed by Sakis Kyratzis will be on sale. The specially commissioned soundscape on…

Vivian Maier: lost art of an urban photographer – On BBC One Tonight – June 25, 2013
I am a massive fan of Vivian Maier’s work and as the BBC point out, ‘She’s been called ‘the greatest photographer you’ve never heard of’… the mysterious Vivian Maier, a nanny based in Chicago who took about 150,000 photographs in her lifetime and stashed them away, not showing them to anyone. She left thousands not even developed, and most as negatives from which she never made prints. It was sheer accident that her life’s work was discovered. Two years before she died in 2009, Vivian Maier stopped paying the rent on five storage lockers in Chicago. Without her knowledge the contents were sold. At locker sales, you have to stand…
Snapchat – Photo Sharing App – Now Worth $800 Million
Launched in 2011 the developers behind the photo sharing app Snapchat have just secured around $60 million in fundng, according to Petapixel, this investment ‘pegs the value of the company at a staggering $800 million’.

The purpose of the app is to transmit images to their friends mobile devices – but the ‘catch’ is that the photo only display for tens seconds or less – the app sends a notification message to the sender when the recipient screencaps the image. That’s it and believe it or not over 200 million snaps are…

American Aperture Awards – Last Day For Entry
Bob Weil has just dropped me a line to ask me to remind you all that today is the last day to enter the American Aperture Awards. See our original post here – they extended the deadline to 24th from 17th June 2013. Bob Weil and Daria Polichetti (iPhoneArt.com) are jurors for the mobile component of the American Aperture Awards. It is not primarily a mobile arts competition. Founded by Chris Davies, the publisher of Fabrik Magazine in LA (a former LA photography gallery owner) and a select collection of art books, AX3 should be an interesting new addition to the cross-genre photography exhibition scene. I’m sure looking forward to…
