My Pie Town. Debbie Grossman is re-imagining post depression America with an all female cast by using photoshop on pictures like Russell Lee’s Pie Town (above). Read more at The Morning News.

Here is a little minimalist photography that I find very pleasing. The artist is José Javier Serrano and goes by Yosigo. I especially like the use of blank space and a muted palate. I find it to be very ethereal both stylistically and subject wise. On a side note, the artist has a very responsive and simple web site by Indexhibit. Two great examples of minimalism in one go.

Back To The Future
by Irina Werning

Artist’s Statement: I love old photos. I admit being a nosey photographer. As soon as I step into someone else’s house, I start sniffing for them. Most of us are fascinated by their retro look but to me, it’s imagining how people would feel and look like if they were to reenact them today… A few months ago, I decided to actually do this. So, with my camera, I started inviting people to go back to their future.

I was looking through old photos and I found these snaps of my friend Dale Dreiling. Dale does amazing mixed media art. This series of portraits of Bill Murray (as various characters) was amazing! Visit Dale’s website here.

Today I came across pictures from Lee Gainer’s Two Month Salary exhibit. The show acts on the saying that an engagement ring should cost the equivalent of the man’s salary for two months. Gainer did the math for various professions and collaged them together. Gainer’s artist statement says his art “explores culturally accepted and media supported perceptions” and I think this certainly qualifies. Perhaps I just liked it because of all the sparkely rings. I wouldn’t buy the book but perhaps this will morph into a refrence guide for engaged women everywhere. ;)

This is also another example of insanely simple web design.
