eyecurious books etc.

I’ve decided to launch an eyecurious offshoot over on tumblr: eyecurious books etc. I have started this little side-project because of the photo-books that are overtaking my small Paris apartment. For a number of reasons, including compulsive buying, getting sent review copies and amazingly generous photographers, I get my hands on a fair number of [...]

Paris in Amsterdam

I have just written a piece on Michael Wolf’s Paris Street View for edition 22, Peeping, of the excellent Foam Magazine run by the Amsterdam museum of the same name. The museum got as excited as I did about this new series and decided to go the extra mile by putting up an outdoor installation [...]

March Madness: 1 month, 2 exhibitions

The first of these, Tokyo Stories, with work by Hiroshi Hamaya, Tadahiko Hayashi and Shigeichi Nagano, opens at Stockholm’s Kulturhuset on 6 March. I’ll be giving a talk from 1-3pm that day on Japanese photography and photographing Tokyo, so for [...]

Tokyo highlights

eyecurious has made a slow start to blogging in 2010. However, this was due to a great, albeit far too short trip to Tokyo. I was in Japan preparing two exhibitions that will open in Stockholm, Sweden and in Cologne, Germany in March of this year (more on these in the coming weeks) and laying [...]

In the meantime, check out the three-part Future of Photobooks Discussion that is being hosted on the Livebooks Resolve blog. I am moderating one of the 3 strands [...]

Welcoming in 2010

I’ve decided to start 2010 in the best way possible: with a quick photo-based trip to Tokyo (4-11 January). This might mean that eyecurious gets the year off to a bit of a slow start but I’m guaranteed to come back with tons of things to blog about. For those of you who haven’t made [...]

Wishing everyone out there a Joyeux Noël and a Bonne Année and hoping that you get all the photo-related gifts that [...]

Some things I bought this year

I’ve seen quite a few end of year lists popping up over the last week. There are the best books of 2009 lists, the more eclectic lists of “stuff I liked this year“, the lists of books acquired in 2009 and many more. I think you need to be a breakfast-lunch-and-dinner kind of consumer of [...]

Last week I got an email from the good people at Source magazine, telling me that they wanted to feature eyecurious on a list of 10 photo-blogs you should read. To my knowledge this is the first one of these that eyecurious has been featured on so thanks to Source for reading and for appreciating. [...]

New theme for eyecurious

I haven’t posted in far too long, only partially due to laziness. I was switching over to a new theme as the one which I started out using on this blog was not working for me. Hopefully the new theme will work better and will allow improvements in the future. Post frequency will be returning [...]
