“Regarding Intimacy” at Flak Photo
by Allen Frame
It is captivating to see images that reveal the extraordinary out of ordinary subjects. When the “extraordinary” is everyday’s life, it becomes increasingly challenging to cross the fine line between an ordinary snapshot and an extraordinary image. This is why I admire the photographers who have the ability to do art out everyday’s life.
So I was glad to receive a note from Andy Adams informing that his fantastic site, Flak Photo , will be displaying a series titled “Regarding Intimacy”. The series explores “the dynamics between families, couples, friends, neighbors and the environment to investigate relationships in traditional intimate interactions”.
Flak Photo will display one image each day from May 1st to May 11th. The series are exhibited through May12th at Hunter College in New York City.
The participating photographers include extraordinary artists that are truly worth to explore beyond the single image that will be part of this series. Here you have the names and links to their work. If you got the time, it is really worth to spare a visit to their online galleries.
Allen Frame, Dona Schwartz, Carrie Mae Weems, John Milisenda, Bob Shamis, Larry Sultan, Keisha Scarville, Todd Deutsch and Oz Lubling.
