Be on the lookout for Strange.rs, a new international photography collective, who several days ago released this teaser trailer. The site will officially launch on 01.01.10. Until then, please follow the collective on Twitter for updates of the strange, the stranger and, of course, the Strange.rs.
The trailer was edited by the always fabulous Kramer O’Neill.
One of my is favorite photographers is Magnum member and British Columbia native Christopher Anderson (b. 1970). Aside from his ability to make great pictures, he is incredibly versatile when it comes to subject matter, be it from the White House driveway, the fashion runway or the way of the warzone.
This video below is a discussion with Mr. Anderson on the objectivity of photography, or maybe we should say its truthiness. The program aired on CBC’s “Q” on Radio 1 with Jian Ghomeshi in June ‘08. I’m sure you’ll be hearing more from me on the topic of Christopher Anderson, but hopefully before NYC Fashion Week 2009 where he has proven himself for two straight years.
Stranger explores documentary and candid street photography, disseminates multimedia to gain a wider perspective, and shares upcoming visual and fine art events in the Metro Vancouver scene. The Editor and Curator of Stranger is John Goldsmith, a freelance photographer and owner of Waxy Photography located in Vancouver, Canada.
