I found these pictures of Björk somewhere on the internet, but I do not know who took them. Still, I just love them and had to post them.

If I had taken anything serious that I did when I was bored at class, maybe I would have turned out to be a photoprapher like Levi van Veluw.

Wenn ich alles ernst genommen hätte, was ich so während langweiliger Unterrichtsstunden angestellt habe, wäre ich vielleicht jetzt auch eine Fotografin wie Levi van Veluw.

You have to be either very cruel or very curious to cut open a sweet little teddy bear, rip out his guts and turn it inside out. Well, the results don't all look as bad as it sounds. The bears who get this little treatment by Kent Rogowski are kind of creepy, sometimes cute and mostly a little disturbing. Especially those with the squeak device: it looks like they get some kind of medical treatment. Nevertheless, they seem to have more personality now, what do you think?
According to the artist, kids find it less spooky than grown ups. Sweet little innocent creatures.

Man muss entweder sehr brutal oder sehr neugierig sein um einen süßen, kleinen Teddybären aufzuschlitzen, ihm die Eingeweide rauzureißen und dann sein Innerstes nach außen zu kehren. Nun, das Ergebnis sieht weniger schlimm aus, als es sich anhört. Die Bären, die diese kleine Behandlung von Kent Rogowski bekommen, sehen etwas unheimlich aus, manchmal aber auch süß und immer etwas verstörend. Besonders die mit dem Quietscher (ja das heißt so): sieht aus, als bekommen sie irgendeine Art medizinischer Behandlung. Trotzdem scheinen die Bären jetzt etwas mehr Persönlichkeit zu haben, oder was meint ihr?
Laut dem Künstler finden Kinder übrigens die Bären weniger gruselig als Erwachsene. Die süßen, unschuldigen Kreaturen.
Do I spot a Care bear on the left and the purple one above isn't it a Popples?// Sehe ich da links etwa einen Glücksbärchi und der violette oben rechts ist doch einer von den Popples?
Be sure to check out the comments on the website Bears - the book and see the different reactions from people. Read a quite interesting interview with the artist on The Morning News.

Schaut Euch auch auf jeden Fall die Seite Bears - the book an und lest unter 'comments' was die anderen davon halten. Außerdem gibt es hier ein ganz interessantes Interview mit dem Künstler.

Last saturday I have been to a party named Select. It is a combination of a photo exhibition and a party actually. I spotted this picture and since I liked it, I asked the photographer to letting me publish it. Andy Rohde is a mediadesign student- and photography is his passion. At first I thought, the picture was taken in Berlin - you maybe heard of the Plattenbau which is a very common kind of architecture in the east of Germany. But no, also in cologne we have ugly buildings like this (who am I kidding - of course we have). Andy really did a good job to lighten up the atmosphere, though. And that is exactly what made this picture so appealing to me. To see a little more of Andy's photos, visit his blog on his myspace site.

Scott Hammond is one of those artists I came across on myspace. (It is a treasure chest after all...) Hammond travels America and takes pictures with his polaroid camera. I really love the vintage look of polaroid pictures and I wish I had such a camera myself.
