In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention. This time we look at Ralph Gibson, Beth Galton, Judith Joy Ross, Andrew Molitor and Sue Bryce.

  • In Ralph Gibson and the Leica M11, the still life photographer takes the new Leica for a walk on Long Island. "As is usual with his work, these latest motifs were photographed from close up, resulting in pictures that reflect a perfect interplay between abstraction and objectivity."
  • Suzanne Sease presents The Series of Textures by food photographer Beth Galton. "Rather than purposefully arranging the food to appear appetizing as the primary visual goal, we focused on the textures, shapes and forms that the food was able to represent with some manipulation," Galton says.
  • In An Undersung Master Portrait Photographer, Vince Aletti profiles Judith Joy Ross. "The portraits that Ross has been making and exhibiting since the nineteen-eighties, nearly all of men, women and children whom she's encountering for the first time out in the world, are the result of looking closely and deeply, as if each moment that she captures matters," he writes.
  • In Nobody Looks, Andrew Molitor criticizes Aletti's piece, suggesting the author didn't spend much time looking at the images. "These are utterly uninteresting portraits, like so many portraits we see from allegedly Serious Photographers working with Serious Processes," he complains. Hmmm.
  • Sue Bryce Education has changed its name to The Portrait System "to better reflect the platform, which is a system that helps photographers transform their passion and creativity into a successful business." At the same time, the company has introduced new courses by a variety of educators, new interactive features, new membership levels and free public access to its awards program.

More to come! Meanwhile, here's a look back. And please support our efforts...
