A series of photographs of attractive young people having fun in the nude went on display last week at San Francisco’s Ratio3. Yes, we’re talking about Ryan McGinley. The exhibit celebrates the release of McGinley’s new book Life Adjustment Center, a collection that illustrates his decade-long evolution from New York youth culture documentarian to photographic dreamscaper.

Eliot Lee Hazel is a photographer based in Los Angeles. I’d love to label him a fine art photographer, but even that seems limiting somehow. If Neil Krug and Ryan McGinley had a child, it would be Eliot Lee Hazel. Read more

I became a big fan of photographer Ryan McGinley after catching sight of his I Know Where The Summer Goes series. He also often photographs celebrities in his own special way, incorporating a kind of edgy theatricality that is so mesmerising. In this series, simply entitled M.I.A., McGinley took some amazingly stunning shots of the Sri Lankan born, London-based singer-songwriter.

Is it just me, or are kids getting more sophisticated these days? 17-year-old photographer Irwin Barbe shoots stylish, moody photos of candid moments with his friends that while reminiscent of early work by Ryan McGinley and other Vice Magazine darlings, are impressive given Barbe’s age. Read more

Our friends over at Vice have just released a gigantopotamus [their words] of photographic gems [our words], featuring 240 glossy pictures of people by the likes of Harry Benson, Ryan McGinley, Jamie Lee Curtis Taete, Terry Richardson, ex-Warhol’s Factory guy Stephen Shore, Richard Kern, and a Japanese guy who likes to dress up as famous non-Japanese people. Yes, some people have all the fun. Oh and there are two highly collectible covers for you to track down too. Bingo.
This is the kind of furniture I’d like to fill my house with. Not only is it original and innovative, skate decks have some some great design on them, too.
Zaha Hadid has been announced as the winning architect for the Guggenheim Hermitage Museum, Vilnius, Lithuania. As with the rest of the Guggenheim Museums, the architectural boundaries are pushed. Zaha lets loose with her fluid, energetic architecture and has subsequently deemed the building to be the manifestation of the city’s new cultural significance. One wonders which is the next city that requires a Guggenheim shot in the arm?
Peter Nalitch is Russia’s answer to Manu Chao. His video for the song Guitar is a Borat-like jab at low-budget, post-Soviet awkwardness — absurd English lyrics, Eurotrash earnestness, bad wipes, and cheap subtitles. But its tongue-in-cheekness is quite apparent, and the song is disarmingly catchy and romantic.
Can this be true? Florent, the legendary eatery of New York’s Meat Packing District, is about to become the next victim of sky-rocketing Manhattan leases. Luckily we still have one more month to be nostalgic at Florent. I’m going (with a whole bunch of friends) this weekend. Read more
This sweet little project going on in Melbourne involves sleepovers. Cara Fox writes short stories about them and Douglas E Pope photographs them. The resulting collection will be exhibited later this year. Read more
I love this track by London based rock group, Scanners, which is off their latest album, Submarine. Having toured with acts such as The Horrors, The Wedding Present, The Charlatans, Electric Six, and Juliette & The Licks, Scanners could well blow up in 2010. Figuratively speaking, not literally. No, that wouldn’t be fun.

Now this is fun. This 3D watch dial actually jumps to life. The dial is a modern version of the 19th century art form of lithophanes: carved porcelain sheets that, when lit, deliver astoundingly detailed images. When the pusher is activated, the dial springs to life in 3D, with an LED light and afterglow effect. Read more
