“Roland Roos repairs broken, displaced or damaged things in public space. Each repair is intended to restore a particular detail to its pre-damaged state. Before and after the repair a photograph is taken of the unsolicited assignment. The photo taken before the repair is the only existing document of the damaged objects and thus becomes a unicum. All of these unicum photos are on sale for 320CHF each which is the average amount of money that is spent for one repair (materials and labor). Free Repair was a two year long project. It ended in april 2010.”

“Strangers In Transist” by Anna Brooks.
“A short film celebrating the unremarkable shapes that usually go unnoticed amongst the commotion of the London Underground. Two passengers traveling the central line find themselves locked in each others grip for the duration of their journey. The unseen crowd dictate their movements around the carriage placing them in awkward and intimate positions with each other. The recognizable sounds and noises of the underground emphasise the rhythm and monotonous nature of the tube.”

If you happen to live in Berlin or you have visited the city some time in the past two months, you may have noticed these poster-sized b/w photographs around town. They are from German photographer Michael Schmidt and apparently these images from the series “Frauen” have been put up as part of the Berlin Biennale. Only recently the posters started to appear in pairs with “official” Biennale posters advertising the event, whereas before they were hung more anonymously, competing with actual billboards and free of any sort of credit or explanatory context. A beautiful example of how art photography can exist outside of the usual “framed-on-the-wall”-type of setting. Michael Schmidt currently has a show at Haus der Kunst in Munich and more of his photography can also be seen as part of the Berlin Biennale.
“J.F.P.” is a beautiful track and video from multimedia artist Takagi Masakatsu.
