Yes, typography is all that and a bag of chips, and we have a long-standing love affair with signage old and new—but what happens when you wipe the slate (or in this case the photo) clean of the ABCs? http://www.los-list.com/blog/shutterbug-josef-schulz/feed/ 2 http://www.los-list.com/blog/shutterbug-sebastiaan-bremer/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/shutterbug-sebastiaan-bremer/#comments Mon, 11 Oct 2010 17:41:26 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=8562

These new works by Sebastiaan Bremer are a tinted and tender reflection of the artist's personal history, full of the vague layered euphorium that tends to surround family holidays of years gone by... http://www.los-list.com/blog/shutterbug-sebastiaan-bremer/feed/ 6 http://www.los-list.com/blog/from-tel-aviv-dr-shakshouka/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/from-tel-aviv-dr-shakshouka/#comments Sat, 24 Jul 2010 10:07:24 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=7441

There are few things more rewarding than antique shopping and Tel Aviv's Jaffa neighborhood (one of the oldest port cities in the world) is brimming with boutiques where you can spend days clambering through mountains of tchotckes and treasures. For such a rigorous underdaking one needs proper breakfast, and there's no better place for a mid-morning boost than Jaffa foodie stronghold, Dr. Shakshouka... http://www.los-list.com/blog/from-tel-aviv-dr-shakshouka/feed/ 15 http://www.los-list.com/blog/world-cup-fever-arkitip/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/world-cup-fever-arkitip/#comments Wed, 07 Jul 2010 21:20:21 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=6893

At this stage of the tournament, with so many favored teams crashing out (see yesterday’s Brazil v. Holland shock) and with the hopes of entire continents dashed by the sporting fates (poor Ghana! perfidious Suárez!) it may be time for a reminder that the World Cup is, after all, about football. At the heart of the carefully managed fanfare of this four-yearly feast is a simple game, played with no more than a ball and a set of posts. A new book by photographer Thomas Hoeffgen, African Arenas, captures just that pared-down beauty of the game... http://www.los-list.com/blog/world-cup-fever-african-arenas/feed/ 6 http://www.los-list.com/blog/shutterbug-guido-mocafico/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/shutterbug-guido-mocafico/#comments Mon, 22 Mar 2010 23:01:47 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=4768

"What animal has inspired as much dread, as many legends, indeed, as much revulsion and terror as the snake? Demon, divinity, sacred animal protector, ancestor – the nature and importance of this creature’s role has changed throughout history. Among the 2,700 known species, few are dangerous, let alone lethal, to humans, but prejudices run deep. These images look at this family of animals with a mysterious biology, and of which new species are still being discovered." — Steidl Publishing http://www.los-list.com/blog/shutterbug-guido-mocafico/feed/ 18 http://www.los-list.com/blog/kawaii-goobie-the-cat-spring/ http://www.los-list.com/blog/kawaii-goobie-the-cat-spring/#comments Fri, 19 Mar 2010 03:49:29 +0000 Lo Martin http://www.los-list.com/blog/?p=4712

Just a quick snap from another glorious day in the 'Burg! Goobie the Cat took great advantage of the fat streams of sunshine flooding the front room for an afternoon-spanning nap of mega-kawaii proportions.

On January 13th the Iggy crew trekked out to Vibromonk Records in Bushwick, Brooklyn for another killer studio session of Iggy Music. UK indie rock & roll foursome The Heavy were impressively bushy-tailed for the 10am call-time: perhaps the sole perk of leftover transatlantic jetlag... Whatever qualms lead singer Kelvin Swaby might have had about the state of his voice were laid to rest as he belted out their first number: "Sixxxteen"... http://www.los-list.com/blog/shutterbug-at-vibromonk-with-the-heavy/feed/ 6
