Printed Matter
We recently updated our Printed Matter page - the home for books, magazines and other publications by members of strange.rs, or in which they appear. The latest additions are the catalogue from the ‘You Are Here’ show, featuring Alex JD Smith, Jared Iorio and Ludmilla Morais, and Bryan Formhals’ excellent ‘Medicine’, recently released through Hamburger Eyes.
Check ‘em out, and click on the images if you feel like adding them to your collection.
New Stranger!
It’s a new year, and we’re happy to bring you the newest member of the strange.rs family - Justin Vogel.
Born and raised in Hells’ Kitchen, NYC, Justin’s street work is at once classic and contemporary, and his strange.rs portfolio is a perfect example of that. This interview is a good starting point to understanding the mind of our newest, and perhaps strangest, recruit.
“I like all types of people. I like the “haves”, and the “Have-nots”. Anybody interesting, anybody with style. I like the people who walk around with a big FUCK YOU on their faces. I like the people who walk around with their hearts on their sleeves. I guess you could say characters or whatever, but I kinda hate that term. I shoot the same Streets day after day, year after year, and I shoot the people who I share those streets with. The people’s style’s change, but the Street stays the same. They clean shit up, raise the rents etc. it doesn’t change things. Back in the eighties this world down here was an immense shit hole. Now it is super fancy. 10 years from now it will be a shit hole again. Part of me cant wait.”

Our very own David Solomons has his ‘Up West’ series featured on the Daily Telegraph’s site today, along with David’s commentary on the project. A good read.
“Ten years is a long time to be shooting a single project, and you’d think in that time anyone would have a pretty good understanding of the West End - the most iconic area of London. I can honestly say I still really don’t know the area that well, but I can at least tell you where the best pubs are.”
