Will Steacy | Michael Mazzeo Gallery | more danger
Ups to tough guy Will Steacy. The show at Michael Mazzeo looks great. A bit steamy in there for the opening but that’s what happens when you corral such beautiful people together. Seriously - dude is pretty fly.
Though I enjoyed myself thoroughly. I feel like this series “These mean streets” is like a PowerPoint presentation my parents might have shown me before I moved to the...

Sam Falls | IC(u)P
I was lucky to be at the International Center of Photography this morning for a class I am assisting. I say lucky because 1) I saw the MFA work of Sam Falls which is exhibited in the downstairs lobby area and 2) because there was a emergency drill in which we had to evacuate the classroom and stand for a titillating lecture given by the fire and safety board.

Speaking of The Wild Project, if you are in NYC you should check out their current exhibition of Sarah Palmer’s photographs. Good people, nice work, fun time.

Joe Leavenworth | dreamboat
My favorite collective of studly photographers is the Photo Dreamboats Collective. One of the members, Joe Leavenworth, has just released a new body of work entitled Late Night Boys, made during his time as a night shifter. http://jleav.net/ http://photodreamboats.com/
Lauren Maresca | these have always brought me luck
Lauren Maresca’s collage work is rad and very glam. I feel that keeping collage (which uses photography) and photography separated, in an age where even straight photography uses assemblages of different forms, is lame. So lets all get along. http://www.laurenmaresca.com

Curtis Mann | spin me a dream
Ok, so I have never claimed to be very “with it” and apparently i am far from. I had not seen Curtis Mann’s work until last week and now I am secretly obsessed with it. His website in annoying so if you want to see more of his work than the olde google image search is the way to go.

Bertrand Fleuret | positions
Sorry for my tardiness, Mercury is in retrograde.
Ugh, I am so hungover ( I have no self control). Its not fair, if I loose my dignity on the dancefloor i should at least get to keep the memories.
Anywayz - whats going on? These celestial bodies above are the works of Bertrand Fleuret, who I am pumped on. His photographs make the world look just as nebulous and cryptic as it is.

vintage | early edition
Though I try and stay indie - my love for the classic Nan Goldin is strong and deep and has never failed me (unlike some of you).
