Chema Madoz

Chema Madoz  is a Spanish photographer born in 1958.  He is known for his dramatic black and white surrealist work.

I am not writing about him because I think he has copied my work. Many artists use the book as their subjects and his photographs are very different from mine.

  I have found photographs from an Israeli photographer that are very similar to Madoz.

THIS IS NOT MY WORK


Ellen Cantor Photograph 2013.  Not a new idea at this time.  Check her website.  I believe her statement sounds vaguely familiar.  I think that possilby her forte appears to be more in the moldy food genre. 

The Photos below are Mine from 2011. They were exhibited at Desantos Gallery for Fotofest 2012.


Cara Barer "Archived" 2011

Doug Keyes Imitation!

Doug Keyes is know for his multiple exposures of books and other subjects.  His works are sophisticated and thoughtful. His photographs can be viewed online and at KLOMPCHING Gallery
The first record that I have found of his book photos is from 2001.






Ellen Cantor is arriving a little late to the book ideas that Doug has been exploring for quite some time now.  This is some of her work from 2013.

The Art of Slinkachu

Slinkachu has created art that is unique, and humorous.  I've found 2 people this weekend at the Bayou City Arts Festival that are doing the same thing.  It's hard to know who came first.

Lorri Honeycutt
I saw art that is very similar to Slinkachu's at the Bayou City Arts Festival this weekend.






Audrey Heller
This work is also at the Bayou City Arts Festival.



Christopher Boffoli

I've already written about Christopher Boffoli and his problems with
Twitter.  It is hard to tell who came up with this idea first.  If I saw any one
of the these photos on it's own, it would be hard to figure out who did it.  The only person 
that stands out for me is Slinkachu.  The urban settings and some of the "dark" situations 
make this work much more interesting than the rest.

More About the Sun

After the last post about the sun, I had a fellow photographer, Adrian Davis point out to me that Ansel Adams made a "sunburn" photograph in 1939!  I didn't know.  After searching for more information about that photograph, I went to the link that he sent me.  Here is the work of another photographer using the same idea, yet totally different images from the three photographers in my last post. 





Ansel Adams, 1939


Harlan Erskine








 Harlan Erskine made his "black sun" photographs in 2008. Here you can see in this photo he was published in 2012 in American Photo Magazine.
