I’m writing to you following the statement that you made after the Magnum Photos archive was taken offline as a result of allegations that Magnum have been selling indecent images of children. First reported by Andy Day on August 6th and followed up here and here.

“They call Alzheimer’s ‘the long goodbye’ and it’s true — it’s a painfully gradual loss”

“They call Alzheimer’s ‘the long goodbye’ and it’s true — it’s a painfully gradual loss”

On March 10, COVID-19 knocked me out. After weeks of labored breathing and a wide range of seemingly unrelated symptoms, I recovered, yearning to create portraits. The experience of photographing housemates, friends, and over 500 hundred New Yorkers, with each subject’s, or parent’s, permission, in a public place and using a telephoto lens to remain socially distanced, often at Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ+ rallies, has been deeply moving, and led to this project, Masked NYC:
Through layers of mind-bending work, Brazilian artist Paulo Coqueiro weaves a photo-based approach to writing — revealing mysteries and mistruths surrounding the disappearance of photojournalist Tito Ferraz
via LensCulture: https://www.lensculture.com/articles/paulo-coqueiro-don-t-lie-to-me
“Remember, I am lying to you.” Politically-entrenched photojournalist Tito Ferraz went missing from his home in December, 2016. Over the course of several months, the outspoken photographer communicated across his network of 5000 Facebook friends, dropping breadcrumbs which would ultimately end in his sudden and dramatic disappearance. A threatening letter arrives. His apartment is broken into. Hard drives are destroyed. Evidence is collected. Everything gets documented through forensic-style photographs. Flyers go up through his community in Bahia, Brazil demanding answers and justice. What happened to Tito Ferraz?

If Magnum really represents the best that photojournalism has to offer, it’s no longer enough to just demonstrate that photographically, it also has to demonstrate it in terms of it’s structures, practices and ethics.

Matt Stuart’s Into the Fire documents the daily lives of people who live in Slab City, an off-grid community based on a former military base in the Sonoran desert, just north of the Mexican border. It is home to travellers, dog lovers, thieves, military veterans, artists and inventors. Its population numbers thousands throughout the winter, in the summer, when temperatures can exceed 120°F (49°C) it dwindles into the low hundreds. True ‘Slabbers’ are the people who have managed to survive two summers. These are the people Matt befriended and photographed.

In the 1980s when Virgil DiBiase was in medical school studying neurology, there were 500,000 people with dementia in this country. In just four decades, that number has skyrocketed to nearly 6 million people, with projections of 300% growth by mid-century. If we make it to old age, an estimated one in three people will fall victim to the disease.

In “Regard,” a series of black-and-white portraits of herself and her daughter, Lulu, Anna Grevenitis casts viewers as the passersby who stare at her child, a teen-ager with Down syndrome.
via The New Yorker: https://www.newyorker.com/culture/photo-booth/a-mothers-steely-portraits-of-her-daughters-life-with-down-syndrome
Anna Grevenitis, a forty-six-year-old French photographer who lives in Brooklyn, is the mother of two teen-agers: Andoni, a lean, restless fifteen-year-old who just started shaving, and Luigia, eleven months his elder, who has thick-rimmed glasses and shoulder-length blond hair, the tips of which she dyes every several months, to match the latest shades of stars like Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish. Luigia, who goes by Lulu, is her mother’s usual muse. For most of the past decade, Grevenitis has photographed her daughter daily, with such studied devotion that Andoni, in his childhood, became envious and begged Grevenitis to shoot him, too. Her son outgrew the routine—“He doesn’t want to see me with my camera next to him in the street,” Grevenitis told me recently—but Lulu, who loves to dress up, still relishes the attention of the lens.

Last week, photographer Gregory Mango won an important lawsuit against online publication BuzzFeed; it’s important, not because of the payout involved, but because of the precedent set by the court, which ruled that BuzzFeed was liable for 3rd party infringement of his photo because they removed his copyright info from the image.

The architecture of the Soviet Union has always been some of the most ambitious of the 20th Century, where so many gaudy and grand details were considered. It even extended to the bus stops. Christopher Herwig has been documenting Soviet era bus stops for years, culminating in two volumes and hundreds of photos of incredibly unique structures in the most rural and urban places.
