11. February 2011
When I first discovered the work of Dutch photographer Desiree Dolron, I couldn’t tell if it’s photography or paintwork. The contemporary artist’s aesthetic takes its roots from the Flemish school of portrait painters – Rogier van der Weyden, Petrus Christus and Danish painter Vilhelm Hammershoi, but it’s actually a mix of photography and state-of-art digital [...]

1. February 2011
I don’t know how many of us still believe that levitation is something else than a trick (though I think it might be possible in special circumstances).

As a perfect example of levitation photography, [...]

Ladislav Kamarad is apparently the only photographer working with Hasselblad, a medium format photographic equipment in the elevation over 8000 m above the sea level . Since 1992, all his pictures were captured by the classic medium-format cameras for 120 or 220 roll film. Though his photographs are taken in extreme conditions, Ladislav Kamarad still [...]

30. November 2010
The mirror and the photographs are the only proves that time makes changes in us. I heard an old actor saying that “Sometimes I look in the mirror and I don’t recognise the face I see”.
