THE NEW STUTTGART CITY LIBRARY

Korean architect Eun Young Yi’s proposal was selected in 1999 from 235 competition entries as the plan for the new central library of the City of Stuttgart.

The building of the 80-million Euro (about $108 mil. US) Stadtbibliothek am Mailänder Platz  began three years ago and the opening ceremonies took place last month.

Mes Magazines

  

Paris does the magazine art scene so damn well. First I found WAD magazine (We Are Different) and now a newer find and future flicker for me = Please! Magazine.

It's an unadulterated explosion of fast forward fashion and banging photography.

STEALING BEAUTY

So much.

JUST READ ...

Autobiographies aren't usually my thing, I'm more of a Lord of the Rings or His Dark Materiels kind of reader. But this was given to me by my professor at St. Martin's and it has just rocked my world. It's the autobiography of arguable the most famous photojournalist and spans his life and work through the 60s, 70s and 80s - a revolutionary time not just photographically but also socially and politically. I defy anyone not to find this an incredible read.
