Sergey Maximishin:Rural Church, Aramus, Armenia

Sergey Maximishin’s portfolio, mostly from Russia, ranges from whimsical to bizarre, showing scenes of unusual everyday life. This is among the best photo works I’ve ever seen, simply stunning.

Artwork by Marcus Matthias Keupp

If you like abstract art, you should check out Marcus Matthias Keupp’s vectorized structures. Marcus combines geometrical elements into quiet while colorful renderings that take the viewer into a world where science meets beauty under neon light. Recommended!

His next exhibition is April 25 – May 17 in Giswil, Switzerland. A bigger one will be in December.

New Photo Set: Autumn Leaves

Photo Set: "Autumn Leaves"

Some months ago, my friend and fellow photographer Annie Bertram recommended to me to visit the  historic automobile cemetery Gürbetal near Bern. The area was originally planned as an open air museum for vintage cars from the 1940s – 1970s, but the owners (who dealt in used car parts) never realized the project. So, the car collection became a car cemetery under birch trees, which was recently used for a national art exhibition. Unfortunately, the area is now closed for environmental reasons, and its future uncertain.

My wife and I visited the cemetery in October, one day before it closed. It was an amazing autumn day, and birch leaves were covering the cars under the trees. I’m happy to present to you a photo sets called “Autumn Leaves” – it contains 34 color and 20 black & white pictures.
