” The most important thing, is not clicking the shutter… it is clicking with the subject!” Alfred Eisenstaedt
I don’t have words for this New Year, still very shocked by all the 150.000 dead people of the terrible tsunami of last year… But I want to communicate to all of you who comes on this site, for the first time or on regularly periods, all my best wishes for a peaceful, artistic year with a lot of fine surprises. And of course, also much, much love for every day of this year. Don’t wait to receive it but give it all around you, without restrictions, over and over again… Every smile you give will warm up somebody’s heart and it’s very more important than you can think! Feel fine in your body, feel fine in your soul and be always open to understand the misery and pain of other people, that’s also a big step to a more tolerant world. Of course you know that! And I certainly don’t want to be a predicator of what kind! So, simply: Have a very nice year 2005!
Where can you see about 150.000 works of modern art today in one museum? Answer: in MoMA, New York Manhattan, in a totally new designed building by architect Yoshio Taniguchi. First opening now Saturday 20, I’m sure take the plane to be at this event (certainly not American Airlines, such a naughty company!) ! Showcasing art from each of six curatorial departments: Architecture and Design, Painting and Sculpture, Prints and Illustrated Books, Film and Media, Drawings and of course Photography on the third floor. Comprising some 25.000 works, MoMA’s photography collection spans the history of the medium, representing both its great creative figures and its varied applications in such fields as journalism, science, and commerce. This inaugural installation is more decisively shaped than typical surveys of the past, with the aim of exploring aspects of the medium’s history in greater depth. See you there!

One of America’s most iconic magazines is back! And that’s a real good thing. Every week, LIFE Magazine returns with its signature photography and photo essays. As the most significant picture magazine ever published in the United States, LIFE portrayed American culture of the mid-twentieth century with the power of the lens. LIFE Magazine was published weekly from 1936 to ‘72, and the photo archive contains over 22 million legendary photographs and covers. Philippe Halsman, Margaret Bourke-White, W. Eugene Smith, Gordon Parks, Larry Burrows, and Robert Capa for example worked as staff photographers for LIFE. In Europe we forget sometimes that America has ALSO a lot of people with great resources and inestimable value who do great things! Find LIFE in your bookstore every WE all over the world!

Saul Bass (1920-1996) was for me not only one of the best graphic designers of the 20th century but I discovered him as the absolute master of film title designs, like in the films of Martin Scorsese, Alfred Hitchcock or Otto Preminger. He invented the movie title as an art form. Before, the list of cast and crew members were so dull that the projectionists only pulled back the curtains to reveal the screen once the action of the film begins! You can now see an exposition of his work in the Design Museum (very nice site) in London until 10 October.
