Mobile Photography and Art Flickr/Instagram Showcase – 10 May 2020
‘Literature is the most powerful means we have for communicating consciousness’, said author Garth Greenwell. The author of a new book, ‘Cleanness’ which I have yet to read, as I am currently rereading his debut ‘What belongs to you’, a book that has served Greenwell, so well. It’s not the subject that draws me as much as the equisite literature that soaks every line. However, I believe good art can be the most powerful means we have for communicating consciousness. The kind of art that worms its way into a person’s being, art that imbues our lives, illuminating our innermost thoughts with eloquence, compassion. Art teaches us to be more…
Karyn Mannix Contemporary PRESENTS #inthesky – shelter-in-place” – New Works by James Bacchi
New Works by James Bacchi #inthesky San Francisco shelter-in-place #inthesky is a black and white Mobile Photography Essay inaugurated in 2015. An obsession to capture and illustrate ‘tension’ from the ground up continues to be my intent. On March 17, 2020 a “shelter-in-place” Order went into effect throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.

Lee Miller – A Life on the Front Line – BBC iPlayer
I highly recommend this documentary currently on BBC iPlayer about model turned photographer, Lee Miller. It is a personal story of a young woman searching for freedom and love and one which leads her to experiences, some she tried to forget, understandably. When Lee Miller returned to New York from Europe in October 1932, newspaper reporters were waiting to greet her as her ship docked. Disembarking in a smart beret and fur-collared coat, she smiled for the journalist from the New York World-Telegram. When he referred to her as ‘one of the most photographed girls in Manhattan’, she retorted, ‘I’d rather take a picture than be one.’ Lee Miller is…
