I met Bram De Ceurt a couple of weeks ago by one of the very newest ways to meet people… facebook… Maybe not the best way and I prefer a pub or a party to meet people but the point is that we met. I had a look at his website www.bramdeceurt.be He is photographer and painter and searches with both media for the erotic aspect of life.

I saw the work of Steve Locatelli for the first time a month ago at Artspace Leguit in Antwerp. For me, his artworks blew the work of other artists at that expo away. His colors are very brisk and his lines are very well placed. He knows what he wants and how to get it. http://www.locatellisteve.com

Dan Tobin Smith has updated his website and one of his ‘new’ still life project is ‘Colour series 2′.

German artist Thomas Wrede’s photorealistic representation combines the natural beauty of landscapes with constructed miniature models.

Its a long time ago since my last post, but i’ve been very busy with some other things. It feels good to be back. At least for now. My first post after the break is about the “The ruins of Detroit” series of photographers Yves Marchand and Romain Meffre. I came across there work at MICK! and I was stunned. I don’t think a need a lot of words to describe the feelings I had, seeing these pictures for the first time. Read on for some Author explanation, more pictures and the link to Yves & Romain’s website.

The ruins of Detroit

At the beginning of the 20th Century, the city of Detroit
developed rapidly thanks to the automobile industry.

Until the 50’s, its population rose to almost 2 million people.
Detroit was the 4th most important city in the United States.

It was the dazzling symbol of the American Dream City with
its monumental skyscrapers and fancy neighborhoods.

Increasing segregation and deindustrialization caused violent riots in 1967.
The white middle-class exodus from the city accelerated and the suburbs grew.
Firms and factories began to close or move to lower-wage states.
Slowly, but inexorably downtown high-rise buildings emptied.

Since the 50’s, “Motor City” lost more than half of its population.

Nowadays, its splendid decaying monuments are, no less than the Pyramids of Egypt,
the Coliseum of Rome, or the Acropolis in Athens, remnants of the passing of a great civilization.

Don’t forget to visit Yves Marchand & Romain Meffre’s website for more incredible pictures.

The Milan furniture fair is an opportunity to showcase the latest and greatest from the world of furniture and product design. It’s also an opportunity to stand out do something a little out of the ordinary and the guys from La Bolleur have decided to bring their Mini Golf Club abroad! During the the Design Week you’ll find their space at Via Vogehra 11 in Milan.

My second post about Mr. Szymon , this time a photos taken in Tokyo. I was checking his work again, and I must say, it got me again. The strange atmosphere and light in his pictures are fascinating. Be sure to stop by his site. Enjoy

Mars is the fourth planet from our Sun in the Solar System. Out of the various planets and moons in our Solar System, Mars perhaps bears the most similarity to Earth, featuring an atmosphere, polar ice caps, and remnants of tectonic activity on the planet’s surface. Mars has fascinated both astronomers and the general public for years, and has been the subject of countless movies and fiction works. Currently, several nations in the world are planning to send missions to Mars for exploration, and NASA’s Spirit Rover recently ended a 6 year exploration of the surface after becoming trapped in sand. Pictures posted here captured by telescope and by space probe.
